"So, you're saying you totally blew him off and now he won't talk to you?" Lita nodded grudgingly. She and Mina were in their dorm room talking about what she had done in the mall. "Mina, I'm an idiot! I called him, and he said that he couldn't talk. I figure he was lying, but I'm not sure." Lita pounded her head against the wall, leaving yet another dent. Mina suddenly smiled. "I have an idea. Maybe you could transform and talk to him as Sailor Jupiter, instead of as Lita. Maybe if you convinced him that you felt weird about being in the mall with him, he might ask you back out. This is just stupid, but you could try." Lita perked up.

"That would work. Thank you!! I could kiss you, but I have something to do." Lita grabbed her jacket and raced down the road towards Brad's house. When she got there, she transformed in the alley beside the house and walked up to the front door and knocked. Brad answered. "Sailor Jupiter? Why are you here?" Lita flashed him a smile. "I came here because a friend of mine is very sad about what's happened between you and her. She thinks you don't like her. I know that you know that I'm talking about Lita. She didn't mean to blow you off in the mall. She was just really nervous and she didn't want you to get hurt by her klutz of a friend. She sent me here to see if you still wanted to go out with her." Brad switched crossed arms and looked thoughtfully at the blue sky.

"Okay, fine. Tell her that she has to be paying attention to me more often, though. Tell her she can't think of other boys. Make sure she understands that." Brad slammed the door and went back to his room. Lita went to the alley and changed back to Lita and sighed. She headed back home with a heavy heart. This was going to be hard to do. She always concentrated on every boy. Lita heaved a sigh and continued walking. When she got to the college, she ran up to her dorm room and sat down on her bunk.

"So? How did it go?" Mina popped in the room. "He told me I couldn't pay attention to any other boys! He is such a jerk! I don't think me and him will work. He's always uptight. I'm always so laid back, and calm, and everything nice. He's always rude!" Lita pounded her head against the same dent in the wall she had made earlier, and the wall shattered, blowing plaster down onto Mina's bunk. "Hey, I never said that I hated you." Lita turned around to see Brad walk in the room, smiling. "Brad!" Lita jumped down off her bunk and hugged him viciously. He responded with a peck on the cheek.

"See, love's hard to find, unless you're looking in the right place, silly."
