"So...Sakura. Do you mind if I ask you a personal question?"

"No. Ask away."

"Do you have a crush or someone?" As soon as Sakura heard the word 'crush', she began to blush. Usagi saw her blushing.

"Well..." Sakura said, dragging out the word.

"Aww. C'mon, Sakura. I know you have a crush! Tell me who it is! Anyway, it's not like I know him."

"Well...I do have a crush." Sakura began. Usagi's eyes widened. She began to wonder who she had a crush on.

"Who is he? What's his name?"

"H-h-his name is...Y-y-y-yuki."

"You stuttered!" Sakura began to blush more.

"So?"

"So! That means you really like him!! You like him so much that you can't even say his name!" Usagi giggled.

"I can too say his name! Watch! Y-yuki!! Ha! There! I said his name!"

"You still stuttered." Sakura blushed more.

"That's okay. I'm just teasing you." They both giggled.

"Now I have a personal question to ask you!" Sakura said, smirking a little.

"Go ahead."

"Who do YOU like?" Usagi began to redden a little.

"Well..." Usagi began. She was about to continue her sentence when Sakura interrupted.

"If you don't like anyone, then I think you should take interest and go out with my brother."

"Actually...I.." Sakura interrupted again.

"I think you and my brother would make such a cute couple!"

"Actually, Sakura, I do already like someone."

"What?!? I thought you didn't!"

"You never let me say anything. You only assumed I didn't like anybody."

"Oh, sorry." Sakura's happy face turned sad.

"It's okay. I forgive you." Sakura had a smile on her face again.

"So...who do you like?"

"Well, his name is Mamoru Chiba."

"What does he look like?"

"Well..." Usagi began. But then, she pointed to a tall guy with blue eyes and short black hair. "That's the guy I like." Sakura could see him, but she wanted to make sure that she was looking at the right person.

"You mean, the one holding hands with that girl?" Usagi didn't say anything for a moment. Sakura looked at her to see if she was okay.

"Yeah, that's the one." Usagi said in a low voice.

"Is that his girlfriend?" Sakura asked gently.

"Yeah."

"How can you like him? He already has a girlfriend."

"I know, I know. I just can't help it!" Usagi said in a whining tone.

"Why don't you just go out with my brother? I think you and him would make a cute couple."

"I don't know." Usagi said. She glanced down at her watch. It was 6:10 p.m. "Oh! It's time to go."

"Okay." Sakura and Usagi got up and walked home.

The next day, Usagi went to school late (as always). The day seemed to go slow for her. Then, right before lunch, the teacher announced that there would be a prom in two weeks. All of a sudden, Usagi got excited. She didn't know why, but she just did. After that announcement, the rest of th day went by quickly. That evening, Usagi was still excited. She still didn't know why. She just was. Usagi had just finished getting ready for bed when the phone rang.

"Hello?" Usagi said when she picked up the phone.

"Hey. Usagi? It's Mamoru Chiba." Usagi was shocked. It was almost as if she stopped breathing.

"Oh, hi." she managed to say.

"I was wondering...would you like to go to the prom with me?" Usagi was even more shocked. Now she had almost literally stopped breathing. She was about to answer him when all of a sudden...
