Love Potion No. 8 Day Three
Usagi slowly opened her heavy eyelids. Bright sunlight invaded her sleepy eyes. She quickly shut them, the sunlight was too much for her to handle this early in the morning. She heard a soft rustling sound somewhere in the room. Maybe Mamo-chan is making me breakfast, she thought curiously as she opened her eyes for a second time. "Mamo-chan," she called out groggily.
"Yes?" He answered back, still moving around. She wiped the sleep from her eyes as they began to focus in on Mamoru's actions, trying to figure out exactly what he was doing.
"What are you doing?!" she asked him quickly wakening from the shock. She pushed down the blankets that surrounded her and sat on her knees. He looked at her and smiled, walking slowly to her. She gazed at herself and blushed, realizing she was wearing only her bra and underwear. Mamoru kissed her as he handed her the dress she had been wearing.
"Good morning. I'm getting ready to get on a bus, what about you?" Usagi's eyes widened in surprise as her heart skipped a beat from Mamoru's response, were they really supposed to leave today? She looked at the clock on the bed stand beside her, trying to register how fast time had passed.
"But…" she said, confused, thoughts swirling in her mind. "I thought we had one more day left together!"
"Usako," Mamoru explained putting a hand on her shoulder. "We got here. That was one day. We went to the park. That was two days. We're here now. That makes three days. I told you three days."
"It's not fair!" Usagi complained. "It's not fair! Today shouldn't count as a day!" She wrapped her arms around Mamoru and pouted. He held her close and rested his head on her shoulder.
"C'mon!" He said cheerfully. "You'll be with your friends for the rest of the week! We'll see each other again, once we get back home. I promise."
"No!" she yelled as she held on to Mamoru tighter. "I don't want to leave you! I don't ever want to leave you!"
"Usako," he said in his deep soothing voice. "We'll have the whole bus ride to be together. Then you'll be with your friend's again. Time will pass faster than you know when you're with Ami, Rei, Minako, and Makoto!"
"No," she said flatly, "Time stands still when I'm not with you."
"Don't be so dramatic," Mamoru said as he stood up. "Hurry up. We have an hour until we have to be on the bus." He began walking towards the kitchen, and then stopped. He turned around to face Usagi, his new love. "We live in the same area, remember when we were talking about it on the bus? I'll always be with you, even if you don't like it. There's no getting rid of me now. You're stuck with me!"
"Mamo-chan," she smiled and stood up. She walked to the bathroom and got ready, first washing her face and then combing and fixing her hair. The she put her dress on, heart pounding thinking about the previous night's events. "Mamo-chan," she repeated quietly as she looked into the mirror.
She snapped herself out of a daydream and exited the bathroom, searching for her shoes. She located them by the door and put them on. She looked a Mamoru in the kitchen and smiled. He was making her breakfast. She sighed to herself and thought about how perfect a husband he would make someday.
She peered around his shoulder and looked up at his concentrating face. "What's for breakfast?" she asked.
"Cheese
omelet," he stated, keeping his eyes on his cooking. Usagi smiled and sat at the table waiting for her breakfast to be
served. She felt happy and extremely
sad all at the same time. She was
ecstatic about what was happening between her and Mamoru, but depressed that
they had to go there separate ways, even if it was for a little while. She knew in her heart nothing would ever be
able to change what she and Mamoru had together. Nothing could ever change it.
"So what's
on your mind, Usako?" Mamoru asked with sincere eyes as he handed Usagi her
breakfast. "Hold that thought," he said
as he walked to the refrigerator, and got out a carton of orange juice. He put it next to Usagi and winked. "You need your vitamins, drink the rest."
He pulled
out a chair and sat down watching her eat the food he had prepared with special
care, just for her. "So, what are you
thinking?" He asked, wanting to know
what was going on inside her mind, even though he was already over whelmed with
his own feelings. Maybe hearing what
she's thinking will help me to sort out the thoughts in my mind, he thought.
"I just
don't want to leave you is all," Usagi mumbled through a mouthful of
omelet. "This is good."
"Thank you,"
he said. "But about leaving me. It'll only be for a few days. We live in the same area!!! Once I get back I'll call you! I promise! Don't worry about me, I love you. I'm in love with you and I'm not going to let you get away from me," he
lowered his voice to a whisper, almost to soft to be heard. "I love you."
"Oh
Mamo-chan!" She yelled and wrapped her arms around him. "I love you too. I love you too!"
Mamoru looked out of the window of the bus that was going to bring him to the beach, and the condo he had been looking forward to for months. Now he dreaded it. He hated the thought of being separated from the one he loves. He tried to stay as cheerful about the whole situation, at least in front of Usagi. He didn't want the separation to hurt her as much as it hurt him.
He removed his eyes from the road and looked at her, proud to call her his girl. She was talking to the passengers in the seat next to them. They were a young couple, with a toddler. Usagi was playing with the small child, leaning over and tickling his nose and softly pinching his cheek. Mamoru could see how happy Usagi was with the child. She would make a great wife, he thought. She would really love her children.
He placed a firm hand on her side and slid it across her stomach. She waved 'bye-bye' to the child as she rested her head on his shoulder. He smiled and grabbed her hand, squeezing it gently. Now that he was comfortable, with his girl at his side, he went back to looking at the yellow stripes in the road flash past him.
Usagi closed her eyes tightly, and wished with all her might. Time stop! Please… time stop! I know Mamo-chan and I will be together soon, but I don't want to leave him yet. Not yet. So please…stop!
The bus jerked violently and rocked side to side. The driver fought to keep control and swore as he held on to the steering wheel. There were shrieks and gasps throughout the bus and honking horns from the cars outside of the bus. Usagi clung to Mamoru with wide eyes. "What's happening?" She asked startled, wondering if time was really stopping just for them.
"I'm sorry," the bus driver announced. "One of the tires blew out. I'll have to make an emergency stop at the nearest bus station."
Usagi blushed, for a moment she really did think time was stopping! Everyone on the bus was stirred up from the commotion. The baby next to them was being hushed from his parents as his loud cries blazed over the conversation.
Everyone's chattering eventually became lower and lower. The young child stopped crying. Usagi and Mamoru had been ignoring everyone else. The bus's tire was going to allow them to spend a little more time together. They grinned at each other and gently gave each other butterfly kisses.
"I'm so happy the bus has to make a stop," Usagi whispered in Mamoru's ear as she gently nibbled on it, sending shivers down Mamoru's spine.
"I feel the same way as you," he whispered back.
The bus stopped gently, almost more surprising then the wheel blowing out. Time passed much to fast when they were together. Usagi moaned and put her head on Mamoru's chest.
"Everyone's leaving," he said soothingly, as he gently nudged her. "Time for us to get out, Usako."
"I guess it could be worse," Usagi grumbled. "At least we're not at the beach yet."
She stood up and held Mamoru's hand. They slowly exited the bus and went into the bus station, holding hands all the way.
"I'm thirsty," Mamoru said with a grin. "I think I'll get a drink. Do you want anything?"
Usagi caught on to what Mamoru was thinking. "I'm craving something. I can't think of what it is though," she said playfully as they walked to the food court. "I could go for something cold, purple, sour…"
"Ah, one of THOSE!" Mamoru exclaimed as he walked up to a cashier and looked at the menu. "I think I'll take a Love Potion No. 8 please…"
