Chapter 6:
"What are you talking about?" I asked, knowing full what she was talking about.
"Usagi-chan, you know what I mean. Why not?"
I waved my head to the spot on the railing next to me and she came and sat next to me, "I can't. It's, well... it's just that I know his personality. He's not one to show emotions."
"How much to do you like him?" She asked.
I looked at the water, "a lot. Oh, Ami-chan, I like him a lot, a lot." We continued our little talk, meanwhile...
"Haha! Beat you again!" Makoto yelled. The girls look at her, she had just beaten Wufei again in arm wrestling. Wufei got up and muttered something in Chinese and went to his room.
Back to Lily and Ami...
"You have got to tell Hiiro." Ami persisted.
"Jeez, I never knew you could be so persistent, Ami-chan." I muttered.
"Tell me what?" Hiiro said from behind us. I looked worriedly at Ami and she smiled at me.
"Nothing important." Ami fibbed for me. I mouthed 'thank you' to her and she walked into the living room.
"Lily, I've known you my whole life, I know when you are keeping something from me. What is it?" Hiiro said taking Amis place.
I gulped, "um. It's really nothing... I said." I thought about something, then a small smile cracked on my face, "I have an idea."
"What?"
"How about if all of us go to dinner, and I'll tell you what I need to tell you there. Okay?"
"Okay." Hiiro said shaking my hand on the deal.
I jumped off the balcony and ran towards my friends, "everyone go get ready, were going out for dinner tonight." I took my friends upstairs to change.

Chapter 7:
"Are you girls ready yet?" I heard my brother yell from downstairs.
"Yes! We're coming down now!" I yelled back.
"How do I look?" Minako asked, she was wearing a short orange dress that made her look taller and more mature. She had taken her hair out of its bow and with Makotos help, curled it. She had put just a hint of eye shadow on.
"Great!" Said Makoto, who also looked great. She was in her favorite grass green, ankle length dress that had just one inch straps with her hair, which was naturally curly cascading down her back.
"Don't forget Ami-chan!" Rei said with a smile. Ami was in a baby blue skirt with a pair of Minakos' clunking sandals on with a soft yellow shirt that showed off the figure that she tried so hard to hide all the time. Ami blushed and thanked Rei.
"You look good, yourself Rei-chan." I said. My raven haired friend was in a tight red dress that she loved to wear that went down to her lower thigh. Her raven hair was up in a bun, but she had tendrils hanging down in her face. She had accented her eyes with a little of Minakos purple eye shadow.
"Thanks, Lily, you look great... as always." She replied. I blushed, I was wearing the dress that Duo had gotten me for my birthday, but I had never worn. It was a darker shade of baby blue that covered my feet, which had a pair of sandals on them. My hair, which I usually had up in a ponytail was now down, curled and flowing.
"Lets go." I said, I took a deep breath and we all walked down the stairs. If all the guys weren't acting like gentlemen I think their jaws would've dropped...in fact, Duos did but Wufei quickly smacked it up. I watched as Rei walked over to Wufei and slipped her arm into his. I glanced at the other girls, and gave them a look, they returned it.
We all walked out the door, Minako and Duo, Ami and Trowa, Makoto and Quatre. I walked next to Hiiro with a far off look in my eyes. I was startled when Hiiro leaned over and said, "care to share that thought with the class, Miss Maxwell?" In his best teacher like voice.
I shook my head with a smile and hopped into the car. I leaned over and talked with Ami, who was sitting next to me. "Yes, he has." I answered her question from earlier.
This caught her full attention, "really?" She whispered back.
I nodded, "it was about a year ago and we were talking and wrestling each other like we had been doing for our whole lives and then when he was helping me up, he kissed me." I said in my lowest whisper ever. Ami's eyes widened, I noticed that the other girls were now paying attention too.
I looked at them with a confused look on my face, then we all just busted out laughing.
"What's so funny? What'd we miss?" Duo asked, excitedly.
"Duo, don't be a nosy little brother. It's just girl talk anyway." I replied with a smile to him. He rolled his eyes and looked back to the road. When we got to restaurant the girls and I went to talk to the manager, but we had told the guys that we were going to the bathroom to 'freshen up.' To our joy, the manager said that we could use his tiny stage to sing some karaoke songs. I thanked him and we went back to the table.
"Hey, guys. Lily's got a surprise for you all." Makoto said with a mischievous smile. They all looked confused until...
"Everyone, it's my pleasure to introduce our first karaoke singer." The spot light shone on me and I walked up the stage. "Hello, this song is sung by Martina McBride." I turned on the song and then started to sing,
"The sun is shinin' everyday
Clouds never get in the way for you and me
I've known you just a week or two
But baby I'm so into you
Can hardly breathe
And I'm in so totally
Wrapped up emotionally
Attracted so physically
Actin' so recklessly
I need you so desperately
Sure as the sky is blue
Baby, I love you, I love you
I never knew that I could feel like this
Can hardly wait till our next kiss
You're so cool
If I'm dreaming please don't wake me up
Cause baby I can't get enough
Of what you do
And I'm in so electrically
Charged up kinetically
Actin' erratically
Need you fanatically
You get to me magically
Sure as the sky is blue
Baby, I love you
I can't believe that this is real,
the way I feel
Baby I'm gone head over heals
And I'm in so totally
Wrapped up emotionally
Attracted so physically
Actin' so recklessly
I need you so desperately
Sure as the sky is blue
(Yeah)
And I'm in so electrically
Charged up kinetically
Actin' erratically
Need you fanatically
You get to me magically
Sure as the sky is blue
Baby, I love you
Baby, I love you
Do you love me too
Baby, I love you." I ended the song, and looked around, 'was a I really that bad?' I thought since no one was applauding. Soon, everyone started standing up, whistling and applauding. I blushed and walked off the stage back to the table.
"Usa-chan! That was great!" Rei said.
"Thanks Rei! That's a big compliment coming from you!" I replied happily. Everyone at the table congratulated me and I thanked them all. I didn't miss the look that Hiiro was giving me, but I tried to ignore it.
"What are you talking about?" I asked, knowing full what she was talking about.
"Usagi-chan, you know what I mean. Why not?"
I waved my head to the spot on the railing next to me and she came and sat next to me, "I can't. It's, well... it's just that I know his personality. He's not one to show emotions."
