"And you've got your emergency numbers here. A spare phone battery. A credit card in this zip. First Aid kit here, pocket knife here…"
"-Pocket knife?" Mamoru interrupted his girlfriend pointing to the various items in his suitcase with a sharp chuckle. "Usako, I'm going away on a business trip for one night, and it's only to Kyoto. I'll be back before you know it. I'm not going to need all this stuff."
The blonde's eyes instantly filled with tears.
"Last time you went away, Galaxia got to you. So I'm preparing for every eventuality. I don't care how silly you think it is. I just want to make sure you'll come back to me safely."
"Oh Usako!" Mamoru sighed as he wrapped her in his arms, wiping away her tears. "I promise you I will come back. Crazy sailor senshi and cross dressing idols couldn't keep me from you. I love you. Always and forever."
"Always and forever." She murmured as he bent down to kiss her. "Which is why you're taking all this. Just in case. So where were we? Oh yes, pocket knife here, compass behind this flap. String here…" Mamoru sighed as Usagi continued her demonstration.
