***Diclaimer: I don't own Sailor Moon
Chapter Three
Minako looked at me and followed where I was looking and stood up. "Damn, that Makoto! She always has to go after the ones I like!"
"Maybe it's just a friendly kiss?" I asked.
"Usagi-chan, do you and Seiya kiss like that?" She asked, her voice flowed with anger.
"No…" I replied, blushing. "I only kiss Mamo-chan like that."
"See! Then it's not a friendly kiss." She said. "When you kiss a friend you kiss on the cheek, or even on the lips, but that excludes tonsil hockey.
"Oh, I guess your right." I agreed.
Minako took my arm and pulled me over to the exit line. She rolled her eyes and moaned in disgust.
"Come on guys we have to meet up with minna." Minako said, hiding her anger.
Makoto blushed. "Oh, I'm sorry." She giggled. "Ok, let's go then."
Yaten scratched his forehead. "Ok." He said, embarrassed.
Minako looked sad, like she did when. I didn't think she liked Yaten that much. Maybe that's how Seiya feels, about me, that he hurts because I'm with Mamo-chan. Why didn't I think about this before? I should've worried about his feelings that were getting hurt, instead of mine that were yearning for somebody other then him.
"You guys, I have to find Seiya. I need to talk to him." I exclaimed.
"Go ahead, Usagi." Yaten said, Mako and Mina nodded in agreement.
I ran as fast as I could in search of him. I needed to tell him my true feelings that were longing to be said. I saw Rei and looked around her. There he was, but he was talking with some girl. I hid behind a tree. "Maybe she is just a fan." I said to myself. They started to walk with each other, and I slowly followed, like a sly fox sneaking behind its prey. I overheard their conversation.
"Seiya, I think you're the cutest out of the Three Lights." The girl said, flirtatiously.
"Thanks, umm what's you name again?" He asked, blushing. "I'm sorry I'm not very good at names."
"Liar." I said to myself. "He always remembers names."
She smiled. "It's ok. My name is Rika." She replied, walking closer to him.
"I think I will remember it." He said.
They walked over to the Fun House and sat on the bench where Minako and I sat a while ago. I hid beside the tree that was behind the bench.
"Is it ok if we wait here, because, I have to wait for my friends? And then we can leave." Seiya asked.
"Sure, no problem. I like to be with you." Rika replied smiling.
"Your sweet, but I sort of feelings for someone else." He said trying not to look into her eyes.
"Is there anything I can do to change your mind?" She asked.
"No, I'm sorry, but I have to be true to my feelings." He replied.
"Not even this." She said and leaned over and locked lips with his.
This wasn't the kind of kiss that you give your friend; this was a kiss that Minako said that Makoto and Yaten were doing. My heart sunk to my stomach. I was jealous. I was jealous over the girl who was kissing my forbidden crush. I couldn't watch this anymore, I stood up, but I fell, tripping on my shoelaces. This caught their attention and they turn to me. Seiya's mouth went open in shock and Rika just looked at me like I was a complete klutz, which I was, but that's besides the point.
"Usagi?" Seiya asked.
"Oh, konnichiwa Seiya, Rika." My hand flew to mouth, noticing what I just said. I don't know the girl. "Baka-Usagi." I said to myself.
"I didn't know you knew her." He said.
"Me neither." Rika said, puzzled.
"Umm…" I said, trying to think of what to say. "Someone, told me who she was."
"Oh, ok." He replied.
"Well, what is your name?" Rika asked.
"It's Usagi." I replied, trying to get up off the ground.
"Here, let me help you." Seiya said, offering his hand to help me up.
Rika stood up and took his hand after he helped me stand up. "Well, it's nice to meet you, Usagi." She said putting out her free hand, to shake mine.
"I wish I could say the same thing." I said ignoring her hand.
"Usagi, what's the matter?" Seiya asked.
"Nothing." I demanded.
Rika rolled her eyes. "Well, Seiya and I are going to the Crown Juice Parlor, so bye." Rika said in a snobby tone.
"Do you want to come, Usagi?" Seiya asked.
Rika's eyes filled up with anger. "Why does she have to go?"
"Well, Rika don't worry, you can have him to yourself because I'm not going" I replied. "Bye Seiya." I said and walked away.
"Wait, Usagi!" Seiya shouted.
I ignored him and continued to walk. "I'm sorry, Seiya." I whispered, and continued to walk away.
"Come on, let's go." Rika said pulling him away.
As they were walking Ami and Rei saw them walking out together. Rei walked over to them.
"Konnichiwa, Seiya." Rei said. "Who's your friend?"
"Hi Rei, hi Ami." He waved. "You guys this is Rika. Rika this is Rei and Ami."
"Konnichiwa." Rika said.
"So where are you guys going?" Ami asked.
"Crown Fruit Parlor." Rika replied squeezing Seiya's hand.
"Too bad, we can't join you, since we have to look for Usagi." Rei said, disappointed.
"Why you can't find her?" Seiya asked, worried.
"No, we don't know where she ran off to." Rei replied.
"That's not really a big loss." Rika remarked.
Rei gave her a mean look, but Seiya just ignored the rude comment.
"Do you want me to help look for her?" Seiya asked.
"No, that's ok, we'll be fine looking for her." Ami replied.
"Ok, let's go Seiya." Rika said pulling Seiya.
"Bye, guys. And if you see Usagi, tell her I'm sorry." Seiya said, and left with Rika.
"Does that seem right to you?" Rei asked Ami.
"Not at all right." She replied.
"Well, let's go look for her, and then we will find out what's going on." Rei said.
Rei and Ami left, and met up with
minna.
I walked through the wooded area of the park. The cherry blossoms began to weep with petals and fell in the pond creating little ripples. I felt little ripples in my stomach as my heart wept. My emotions got the best of me when I saw Seiya and that vile Rika kiss. I shouldn't let this bother me so much, but it does.
I sat down by the pond and looked at my glossy reflection. I saw jealousy written all over my face. I've been jealous before, but this time it's different. All my feelings are jumbled together like a big ball, which can't be broken. If only Mamo-chan was here…But he's not so I don't know what to do.
As I watched the wind glide gently above the pond, I saw a couple skips on top of it. It wasn't the wind because the wind wouldn't make the water that choppy. I concluded that it must be someone skipping rocks, so I went back to dwell on my dilemma.
"Usagi-chan?" A voice said in the wind. "Is that you?"
I turned my head, but I saw no one. My body shook with fear and the fine tiny hairs on my neck stood straight up on end. I stood up and scanned the area, still no one in sight.
"Usagi…don't be scared. I won't hurt you." The voice assured.
"How can I be so sure? I don't even know where, or who you are." My voice quavered.
"You should know me, by now." It said.
"Well can you at least let me see you?" I asked.
"I think I could do that." It said. "Ok, here I am."
I turned to the pond and there she, I mean I was. It was Neo Queen Serenity, the future me. It was like looking in the mirror, except for the clothes part, but all in all I was shocked. She floated on top of the water; her body glowed like the moonlight.
"Usagi close your mouth, you like a frog catching flies. And besides it's not very princess like." She scolded.
"Gomen." I said, embarrassed. "Why are you here?"
"You seemed to have lost your way, and I came to guide you on the right path." She replied. "I know you've been having second thoughts about your relationships with Mamoru and Seiya."
"Yes!" I exclaimed. "I am so confused. I don't know what to do about Seiya. But in my heart I truly and deeply love Mamo-chan."
"Yes, I know how you feel. Because, you are forgetting I was once you in the same position." She said. "You should follow your heart, it will never lead you in the wrong direction. Trust in your self."
"Can you just tell me who I end up with?" I asked in hope.
"Usagi, only you can pick one. The one you truly love. Because even thought I know the answer now, it doesn't mean you can't change the future, but in my case the past. If you're listening to your heart, you will know what to do."
"Seiya doesn't feel the same way about me, he only has eyes for Rika. Yuck!" I said.
Serenity giggled. "Believe me, he doesn't like Rika, he doesn't even know what, I mean who she is."
"Why, what is she?" I asked.
"I don't think you should know, but if you really want to…" I nodded my head in anticipation. "Well… She's a shadow of myself. You see I created her so you would be able to know your true feelings for Seiya and you are the only one to decide that."
"Yes! So she isn't going to be his soul mate!" I jumped up and down in joy. Serenity looked at me like I was crazy.
"I loved, our little chat, but I'm afraid I must be leaving now."
"Don't you want to know what I will do?" I asked.
"Oh, poor Usagi, you never pay attention to anything. But, I know that already." She said. "So that means I know what you will do."
"Demo…"
"Usagi, don't worry you will know what to do. You don't need me to help you do it."
"Oh ok…" I said disappointed.
"Goodbye Usagi." She said and smiled. "Remember, when life gets tough, always try you're best and never quit, or you will end up with nothing."
"Bye, Serenity." I said and she disappeared into stardust. "Thank you."
I put my hand over my heart. It was beating normal for a change. Maybe it was trying to tell me what to do. I closed my eyes and strained to listen for it. Nothing… I heard nothing, only the pulsating beats of own heart. I wondered if it was the body's way of communicating with the other organs.
"I guess she was wrong." I said, and stood up. "Good bye, Serenity."
I took the long way home, kicking the dust up from the rocky road. It's funny just the other day I was walking all alone, just like today, but I was thinking of some one else that I love.
