In love
By SolarBlueRose

Have you ever been in love? I have and I am still in love with her. Hi, my name is
Mamoru Chiba, and I want to tell you my story. The women I love is the most perfect person
I the world. She is an angel from heaven, sent here to bring joy to everyone. Before I tell
you who she is, I need you to promise not to tell anyone. Ok, promise. All right, I'll tell
you her name; she is Usagi Tsukino.

We have been friends since we were born. Our parents have known each other since
childhood. That's why I think our love is predestined. We use to play together on the
swings. I would push her as she swing. I remember she would always let out a giggle of
delight. My sweet angel, no one could resist her. Another memory, I dropped my ice
cream. I was so sad and she offered to share hers. She was, no is, so sweet.

In junior high and freshman and sophomore year of high school, I went out with her
best friend, Rei Hino. Like most people, I was oblivious to my feelings to my true love. I
thought I was in love with Rei, but it was really an infatuation. While I dated Rei, Usagi
never dated. I never knew why. She is so pretty, intelligent, graceful, and well, just
perfect.

I broke it off with Rei when I realized I love Usagi. It's not fair to lead someone
on when you love another. I was going to ask Usagi out, until I found out she agreed to go on her first date.

Now look at me. I'm sitting here on this chair watching Usa try on dresses and get ready
for her first date. Her friends are surrounding her giggling, fixing her hair, and taking
pictures.

I'm trying to be happy; I really am. All I could do was fake a smile and wallow in
my jealousy. He had better not try anything on her or I'll pound him.

~~~~~~*****~~~~~*****~~~~~~~~~~~*****~~~~~*****~~~~~~~~~~~*****~~~~~*****~~~~~~~~~

I've been here for an hour now. This is pure and unbelievable horror. My sweet Usa
getting all dressed up beautifully for Nobu. Did I tell you his name is Nobu? What kind of
name is that? He has terrible clothes, he looks like he never grooms, and he is so short. I
guess this is how you are when you are jealous; you rip apart everything about your rival.

~~~~~~*****~~~~~*****~~~~~~~~~~~*****~~~~~*****~~~~~~~~~~~*****~~~~~*****~~~~~~~~~

I have to leave this place. I get up and turn to the door, but before I go I say
good bye. "Usa, I have to go. I'll talk to you tonight, after your date. You can tell me how
wonderful it was." It took everything I have to say that. I then left without hearing her
reply.

~~~~~~*****~~~~~*****~~~~~~~~~~~*****~~~~~*****~~~~~~~~~~~*****~~~~~*****~~~~~~~~~

I take a walk through the park. I arrive at my favorite spot, the rose garden. Usa
and I always loved to go here, just her and me. Now it would probably be Nobu and her. Why
couldn't I have asked her first? It should be me she is dressing up for, not that freak.
This is not fair. I know everything about her. What does he know, nothing. Where was
he when her grandma died? Where was he when some bullies were picking on her? No where. I
was there, I was.

Suddenly I felt a hand on my shoulder and I look to see whom it was. It was my sweet
darling Usa. "What are you doing here?" I asked as I looked upon her. She is wearing a
simple silver dress with roses all over, her hair in a braid, and her shoes are silver three
inch rose printed dress shoes. She looked like a celestial being from above. "Don't you have
a date?" I asked.

She just stands there and says nothing. She gazes into my eyes and unexpectantly,
kisses me passionately. I knew from then on, she was MINE!
