Ayumi-chan: Hello fellow moonies. I'm back and I'm ready to tack. ::giggles:: Tackle another chapter of "One Look at You" that is. ::laughs:: Well, I do hope you enjoy this chapter. I've tried to make it longer than the usual chapters (1, 3 and now 5) that I've written. Here's my other co- writer and friend, my pal and fellow Sailor Moon fanatic... ILLUSION... Illusion?
Illusion: ::looks around confused:: Am I suppose to talk now? Oh well, Hi everyone. I hope you enjoy this chapter. Now back to Ayumi-chan!
Ayumi-chan: If any of you read my new fanfic titled, "Loving from a Distance" (my fifth fanfic that i've posted on asmr) I really hoped you enjoyed it. ::giggles:: So far I know the people who read it at "FanFiction.NET" love it. I got soo many reviews already. So now I'll be concentrating on writing two fics, but I think that "Loving from a Distance" will be only a couple of chapters. My Sailor Moon site is finally up. Yippee!! ::giggles:: So please visit and sign my guestbook. And also you can read fanfics I posted there before it shows up on ASMR. Illusion, do you have anything else to say?
Illusion: Nope! ::glares at all the people saying "Good!"::
Ayumi-chan: Okay. Well, the poem featured here is titled, "Feelings" A poem I made to confess my feelings towards a guy I liked before. :o) Okay, I'll better stop talking and get on with the story, ne. Take care. :o)

--It started out as friendship
But lately things have changed
My feelings for you grew more deep
I'm afraid I'll never be the same--
(Usagi's POV)
I followed Makoto and Ami down the hall. They stopped next to a door.
"Here you go Usagi-chan. Room 103." Makoto nods towards the door.
"Thanks Mako-chan... Ami-chan. I really appreciate you showing me where my class is." I smiled at them.
"No problem Usagi-chan." Makoto grinned at me. "Oh, by the way, have fun in class." She giggled.
"What's so funny?" I asked puzzled. Looking at her, then at Ami who acted like she didn't know a thing.
She walked up to me and leaned closer till she could whisper in my ear. "Mamoru-kun is in your class." She laughed, stepping back.
I blushed. "So? I only talked to him twice today. It's not like we're trying to get together you know."
"Keep telling yourself that." Makoto laughed again and started walking to the direction of her next class, motioning Ami to follow.
"We're only looking out for your welfare Usagi-chan." Ami said, turning to catch up with Makoto.
'Hmm ... I wonder what's the big fuss about me talking to Mamo-chan.' I blushed when I realized what I called him.
"Hi again."
I turned around to see Mamoru grinning. "Hi."
"Shall we?" He offered me his arm.
I accepted it gratefully. 'Nothing's wrong with being friends.' I smiled up at him. "We shall." I giggled.
~*~
(Author's POV)
"Class... I would like you to meet Tsukino Usagi. She moved here all the way from California so I hope you all make her feel welcomed." The teacher, Miss Haruna explained. "So if you have any questions to ask her, you may ask her now." She smiled at Usagi.
A boy sitting in the front raised up a hand and stood up.
"Gurio Umino." Miss Haruna replied.
"Hi... umm, Usagi. I noticed that you have a Japanese name, but you say that you came from California... could you explain that please?" Umino straightened his glasses waiting for Usagi's reply.
"Well, that's easy. My father was born here and met my mother while she was here as an exchange student during college... after they were married, they had to move to the states when my Grandmother died." She replied. "Besides, that's where the blonde hair comes in."
The whole class laughed and Umino sat back down.
"Usagi, you can take a seat right next to Chiba Mamoru over there in the back." Miss Haruna points to the empty seat by Mamoru.
"Thank you Miss Haruna." Usagi replied, walking towards the back.
~*~
(Mamoru's POV)
'What luck... She gets to sit by me.' I smiled at her as she sat down.
"Hello again." She whispered.
"Hi yourself." I whispered back.
And class began. But with her in class, it seemed more interesting than before.
~*~
(Usagi's POV)
I walked out of the front door, glad to have school over. I sighed and walked my way to the parking lot. Finally getting to my car, I opened the door.
"Usagi!!" Someone shouted behind me. I turned around.
"Hey Mamoru." I waved as he ran up to me.
"How are you Usagi?" He stuttered, still out of breath.
I giggled. "I'm fine. Do you, umm... need a ride anywhere?" I looked at him shyly.
"Sure, why not."
He flashed a smile that made my legs turn into butter. Thank God I was holding onto my car door at that moment.
"Jump in then." I got into my car and he stepped inside the passenger side. "Where to sir?" I giggled.
"How 'bout we go to cafe or something and get a bite to eat?" He buckled his seat belt.
"Sure, if you don't mind my company." I started the car and reversed out.
"Who could not enjoy a day with you." He whispered, but I still caught it.
I blushed.
~*~
(Author's POV)
"Did you see that?" Ametuschi screeched to Jordan.
Jordan frowned. "Yes, I did."
"She is going to get it big time." She screamed.
"Why can't you realize that Mamoru isn't yours anymore... he does not want you." Jordan turned to her and sighed. "I know you don't love him Ametuschi... why can't you let it go?"
"Because..." Ametuschi growled. "He was mine first, and no one... I mean NO ONE takes what is mine."
She stalked off.
"Women." Jordan walked to his car.
~*~
(3 Weeks Later)
--You made me smile even though
I felt so sad inside
You are the sweetest sweetheart
Don't ever let it hide--
(Author's POV)
Usagi walked through the door of school, happy that she made friends here and even got herself into cheerleading like she always wanted. As she got to her locker, she noticed that all eyes seemed to be on her.
'Hmm.' She shut her locker when a girl she barely knew walked up to her.
"Usagi?"
"Yes?" She adjusted the strap on her bag.
"I'm sorry about you and Jordan." The girl sighed.
"What do you mean? Me and Jordan are only friends." She looked at the girl puzzled.
"Everyone knows about it Usagi. You don't have to be ashamed." The girl looked at Usagi with pity in her eyes.
"Ashamed about what?" Usagi was totally puzzled now.
The girl walked closer to Usagi and whispered in her ear. Usagi's eyes widened.
"I feel sorry for you... still being the new girl and all." The girl walked away sadly.
~*~
(Mamoru's POV)
I arrived at the park to see my Usa-ko crying. I ran to her and kneeled in front of her. At first she seemed shock, then she jumped off her seat and encircled her arms around me.
"Usa, what's wrong?" I whispered into her ear, stroking her hair slowly.
"Everything Mamoru... everything." She sobbed louder, her grip tightening more.
"What happened?" I pushed Usako away a bit, holding her face in my hands while I dried her eyes the best I could.
"He... he... he told people... things. Horrible, horrible things."
"Who did?" I looked at her eyes. Tears still poured out, but much slower.
"Jordan." She said flatly.
"I told you not to involve yourself with him. It's only trouble when it comes to him and Ametuschi. You don't know what'll happen." I lifted her up and carried her back onto the bench.
"I don't know how you were able to go out with her." She laughed through her tears. They were beginning to dry.
I laughed. "I asked myself that everyday."
"Thank you." She touched my cheek gently.
All I felt was warmth where her finger left a trail on my face and I smile.
"I've got something for you." She searched through her pockets and took out a piece of paper. "I've been meaning to give this to you for some time now, but..." She started to giggle.
"But?" I smiled, feeling the love grow stronger in me. 'I love her... I know that now.'
"Here. Take this. It's from me." She smiled, eyes finally dry and her smile finally back on her face. She handed me a piece of paper. "I have to go... cheerleading practice of course." She giggled. "Seeya later Mamoru." She runs off.
"What is this?" I asked myself. Opening the paper.
To Mamo-chan,
I know that these past few weeks we've become close. Almost as close as "best friends" But I don't want that you
see. I want more than what "friends" can give and I hope this poem shows you how I feel.
(Continuation of my poem of course. Hehe)
--There's things I need to tell you
But I can't say it to your face
I don't have enough courage
So I chose this in place
I like you "not" as friends
But the boy/girl type of thing
Do I have a chance with you
To see what this could bring?
I need to know what's in your heart
So I don't feel put down
To see my hopes building up
Then tumble to the ground
So now you know my feelings
Please don't brush them aside
I like you ... it's the truth
I hope you don't mind.--
"Usa-ko ... Has feelings for me?" I smiled for the third time that day, and it was all because of my Usa-ko.
