~*Getting to Know You*~
~*Chapter Six: The 'Date'*~
-----------------------------------
"Taiki-san..." Minako began. "I heard that you have a day off this Sunday..."
"It's true." Taiki replied.
"I think it would be a time to watch a movie!" Minako smiled.
"I was thinking about writing some more poetry." Taiki responded.
"I could come with you!" Minako suggested.
"I like quiet when I write." Taiki replied before walking off.
"Damn!" Minako cursed.
"Hello, Minako-chan!" Usagi smiled as she approached Minako.
"What's wrong?" Makoto asked.
"I asked Taiki to watch a movie with me, he refused." Minako sadly replied.
"I'll watch it with you." Makoto suggested.
"No, it's okay." Minako sighed.
"It's okay, Minako-chan." Usagi responded. "He was probably just busy."
"You're right!" Minako perked up with excitement. "Besides, there is still Seiya and
Yaten to ask!" Minako then ran off in search of the other two.
"She's excited." Usagi smiled.
"I've never seen Minako-chan run that fast before." Makoto laughed.
"I have." Usagi smiled.
"When?"
"When we are late for school."
Makoto gave off a sweatdrop. "That is very much like you two."
-------------------------------------
Usagi sighed as she walked past the school. She was finally by herself. She now had
time to think.
"Hey, Odango!"
Usagi turned around to spot Seiya taking shade under a tree.
"Seiya-kun!" Usagi yelled. "What do you want?"
"I have a day off tomorrow..." Seiya responded.
"I heard."
"Well, I thought we could do something."
"Like what?"
"Come with me tomorrow, you have nothing to do right?"
"What are you talking about! I have to eat breakfast, and watch TV, and read manga,
and eat snacks, and play games..."
"So you're free. Come to Ichinohashi Park at 11:00 tomorrow."
Seiya got up to leave. "See you later, Odango."
Usagi just stood there, blinking. 'I wonder what this is about...'
Usagi turned when she heard a gasp from behind. "Ami-chan!" Usagi yelled. "What are you
doing here?"
"I didn't hear anything!" Ami insisted. "See you, Usagi-chan..." Ami motioned before
leaving.
Usagi paused. 'This day just keeps getting werider.'
A figure from behind laughed. "No one is going to surpass me, no way.' Suzu laughed as
she planned how she would 'ruin' the 'date.'
--------------------------------------
"No mail, again." Usagi sighed as she checked the box... 'I knew it... I've written him
twenty letters already... I haven't gotten one responce! Sometimes I hate you, Mamo-chan!'
Usagi paused. 'There's nothing I can do. He said he'd be busy... but... It's almost been a month.'
-----------------------------------
The next day...
"I have been waiting fifteen minutes!" Usagi yelled. "Where is he?!"
"Odango, what are you doing here?" A voice asked.
"Seiya, you're late." Usagi said before turning around. "Oh, I'm sorry Haruka-san. I thought
you were someone else."
"It's okay." Haruka smiled. "You looked troubled."
Haruka was with Michiru. Usagi met the two during her last year of Middle School at a game
arcade. Haruka and Michiru were a year older and much more mature.
"I'm just waiting for Seiya, this guy I know from school."
"You broke up with Mamoru-san?" Michiru asked in surprise.
"No, what makes you think that?" Usagi asked.
"Only couples come here on weekends..." Michiru concluded. "That's what."
"Oh." Usagi finished. "It's nothing like that!"
"Be careful of the wolf, my kitten." Haruka warned.
"Well, we better be going!" Michiru yelled as she pulled Haruka away.
"Those two are just a bit odd..." Usagi concluded.
"Hey, Odango!" Seiya called as he arrived. "Sorry, I'm late."
"You better be!" Usagi yelled. "I've been waiting for twenty minutes! Where were you?!"
"I was rehearsing." Seiya explained. "It's hard to be an idol."
"So what are we doing here?" Usagi asked.
"There's an amusement park in town..." Seiya continued. "I thought we could go."
"Only if you buy me some food."
"Deal."
------------------------------
"Damn it!" Suzu cursed. "Usagi and Seiya aren't at the park anymore!"
Suzu spotted a telephone booth. "Sucess." She looked up 'Kou' in the telephone book.
-----------------------------
"Hello?" Yaten answered.
----------------------------
"Is Seiya there?" Suzu asked.
--------------------------
"No, he went out."
-----------------------
"Do you know where he might be?"
----------------------
"No, don't call us anymore!" Yaten yelled as he hung up the phone.
"You need to be nicer." Taiki warned. "We're losing fans."
---------------------
"Damn," Suzu cursed. "What a mean boy."
She sighed as she hung up the phone... "Well, I guess that I'll have to find him myself now.
Damn."
-------------------
"Seiya-kun!" Usagi yelled. "I want that bear!" Usagi continued to point towards a pink bear
inside a game machine.
"It is cute. Like you, Odango." Seiya smiled. "I'll get it." Seiya put the coin in and slowly
began to attempt winning the cute pink bear.
"Yes!" Usagi screamed as Seiya succeeded. "Thank you. Everytime I look at it, I'll think of you."
"What do you mean?" Seiya asked as he attached the bear to his shirt. "Win your own."
"I was thinking of that..." Usagi paused as she continued to follow Seiya. "...So what are we
going to do now? We've eaten, we've gone on the roller coaster, I ate again, we went to the
zoo, we went to the haunted house, we went to the game area... What are we going to do now?"
"Odango, you'll see."
"Seiya-kun, I don't like the sound of that."
"We're just going to go to somewhere I spend a lot of my freetime."
Meanwhile, the overhead speakers [a/n: they're still at the amusement park, they're just heading
towards the exit] began to play a song by the Three Lights.
"This is your song... Isn't it?" Usagi asked Seiya.
"Yes."
"It's beautiful. Did you write it?"
"Yes."
"Is it about someone? You can tell me." Usagi smiled. "I won't tell anyone!"
"It's just that you don't have anyone to tell."
"Hey!" Usagi protested. "That's rude!"
"I just kidding." Seiya laughed. "It's about Kakyuu-hime."
"-hime?! I real princess?"
Seiya laughed again. "No, that was just my nickname for her."
"Is she your girlfriend?"
"She was."
"What happened?"
"She wanted her boyfriend to be with her forever. When I told her that we were moving to your
town... She couldn't handle it. I let her stay behind."
Usagi sighed. "I used to come to this park a lot with Mamo-chan..."
"Mamo... Odango, is he your boyfriend?"
"Yes, his name is Mamoru Chiba. He went to America... to study at a place called Harvard."
"Mamoru sounds very smart."
"He is, he's the best!"
"Odango, you just hurt me."
"Sorry, sorry. You're a nice guy also. Seiya-kun, it's just that... I haven't known you long
enough."
"Odango, I understand... You'll find happiness one day."
"I know I will, I'm Usagi Tsukino."
Seiya smiled. "We're here." Seiya pointed to a large, noisy, building.
"What's inside?"
"We're going to dance!" Seiya yelled as he grabbed Usagi's hand to pull her inside.
The two began to dance when a laugh was heard from upstairs.
"Success!" Suzu cried. 'It only took me about three places, but I've found Seiya!'
"Are you sure that Seiya comes here on his free time?"
When Suzu heard this she turned her head to see a group of girls from her high school.
"Yes!" Their leader yelled. "I read it in a magazine!" The girl brought out the magazine to show
all. "Seiya Kou loves to relax and spend his time at places that are fun. Amusement parks, and
dance clubs are his favorites!"
"Do you know how many dance clubs are in this area?" Suzu asked as she interrupted the poor girl.
"No..."
"There's plenty!" Suzu yelled. "But, you're lucky today... Seiya is right down there!" Suzu
smiled as she pointed. 'I'll ruin this little 'date' of theirs, right now.'
"Okay," The leader continued. "Let's try to stay calm... Idols hate loud girls..."
"Wrong." Suzu explained. "You see, Seiya likes loud girls."
"Wait a minute!" Came a voice from the crowd. "How do YOU know all of this?"
"I'm a friend of his family."
"We might as well try it." Another voice suggested.
"We've got nothing to lose."
The girls ran down the stairs and started to mob Seiya. They asked for autographs and things
like that while Seiya tried to get away.
Usagi sighed as she tried to reason. "Excuse me, but today is Seiya's day off..."
No one heard her.
She tried again. "If you could please..."
Again, no responce.
Usagi sighed. "I guess I'll be going home now." Usagi started towards the exit when something
pushed her over.
"Seiya-kun?" She asked as she saw who it was.
"Sorry. I was trying to get away."
"It's okay. Let's go home together."
--------------------
"Thank you for walking me all the way home, Seiya-kun."
"It's my job." Seiya smiled as he took off the bear he had won. "For you."
Usagi opened her hand to recieve the bear. "Thank you, Seiya-kun. See you tomorrow."
"Good-bye, Usagi."
