You Can't Push Love

Chapter 2

Disclaimer

I so obviously don't own Sailor Moon. Japanese people do and some anime dubbing people and more people that really aren't me. Therefore I have to put this here so I don't get sued because people think I own it which I don't.

Summary

First season romance via Motoki and the senshi. They scheme to get their friends together because we all know they're in love. ^_^

Author's Notes

Well, first I didn't have the honorifics but then I changed it and it's MUCH better. Here's the run down...sensei, kyo, dono are most respectful...for teachers, doctors and such. Sama and san are second most respectful ...for people you generally respect I guess you'd say. Lastly are kun and chan for friends. You use ko for a romantic partner but if you love them you can just call them by their name. So, I chose to have Mamoru and Usagi address each other like they normally do but in Mamoru's mind he doesn't use an honorific. ^_^ Enjoy. Also, this started out as a fanfic but it just didn't want to work so here it is as a non song-fic.

I was walking to Motoki-kun's apartment with the girls, we were supposed to help him move into a new place today. It's so early! I really didn't want to be awake but it was for Motoki-kun and he had asked nicely for our help. I almost tripped over the sidewalk and started paying attention to what I was doing and to what the girls were talking about.

"Sigh, Motoki-san is sooo cute! And he makes the best food! He's so useful." Mako-chan swooned dazedly and we all giggled, rolling our eyes at her. That girl has got it bad! I mean he is cute and I liked him but we all know he has a girlfriend.

"But Mako-chan, you know how to cook. Besides, Motoki-kun has a girlfriend." I teased with a giggle as she playfully swatted at my arm. Ow! It isn't supposed to hurt when you're joking!

"Well he has a cute friend too. Mamoru-san." Rei-chan sighed with a huge grin while I stood there making an irritated face at Rei-chan, resulting in Mako-chan and Ami-chan giggling.

"Rei-chan! Mamoru-baka isn't cute!" I squealed, stopping in the middle of the sidewalk and crossing my arms over my bust defiantly. How can she like that jerk?! I stared at her, a hurt look on my face. How could she do that to me? He's...ugh I hate him!

"Oh come on Usa-chan! He is totally hot! I know you don't like him and all but you have to admit that he's cute. And he's so sweet!" Rei-chan babbled on with a starry-eyed, faraway look on her face. I rolled my eyes with a glare at her. No! Mamoru-baka isn't cute Rei-chan!

"Mamoru-baka, sweet?!" I shouted, my eyes going wide with shock. That girl is crazy! Blah! To think, Mamo-chan, cute! As if! Uh-oh...Mako-chan's looking at me with that impish smile. This can't be good.

"Usa-chan has a secret crush on Mamoru-san!" She shouted loudly and I froze in place. Where does she think of these things? Whatever! Me? Have a crush on that jerk? I don't think so!

"NANI?!" I screamed, almost falling over. Nuh-uh! No way! "Mako-chan! You're crazy! I don't like that stuck-up, conceited, annoying, arrogant, jerky...baka!" I wailed, stomping my feet against the sidewalk and flailing my arms in the air.

"Just who would you be talking about Odango?" I heard behind me in a deep voice I knew so well. Ugh! Just stand still and he'll go away...really. I could still feel him behind me and heard him snicker as he stood there...not moving. Why wasn't he moving? Oh, I know! Because he lives to make my life miserable! Just go away you jerk! I threw a glare at Mako-chan before turning around with a deep blush on my face and glaring at Mamoru. Bad idea. My glare faded as I saw the mirth in his eyes.

"That's none of your business, jerk! Don't you have anything better to do then harass junior high girls?" I lectured with a grin of satisfaction but that stupid smug smile of his stayed right there. Oooh I hate that smile! It's so cute on him...but I hate it! Why does someone so cute have to be so mean? And why do I have to like when he teases me?! Life really isn't fair!

"Actually, I'm helping Motoki-kun move and I'm only bothering one junior high girl." He fought back with that same annoying smirk of his. Of course you're only bothering one! You only love to irritate me!

"Why does Motoki-kun have such obnoxious friends?" I asked myself out loud and stuck my tongue out at him and his eyes went wide and he blanched for a moment before his jovial smile returned. I turned my back to him yet again with a scowl as he continued to harass me.

"I'm not mean Odango, I only tease you." He taunted with a laugh as I screamed in exasperation. Jerk! So I'm the only one he feels the constant need to torment? Great! I turned to face him again, biting my lip as studied the emotions he was trying so hard to hide in his deep blue eyes.

"Why do you only bother me?" I questioned in a whiny tone, scrunching my face in a pout. I saw Mako-chan grin excitedly at us with extreme interest while Rei-chan's eyes were wide and Ami gasped with a hand over her mouth. I ignored pointed an accusing finger at Mamoru, my other one resting on my hip as I glowered at him.

His eyes went wide and his face paled as I dropped my hand to my side. He stared into my eyes a moment and swallowed the air in his throat. "Eh...why do you fight back?" He countered and I started to blush, quickly forcing a scowl on my face. Not fair! He smiled with a strange look in his eyes, it was a combination of amusement...and something else. I frowned and looked down to the ground a moment and when I looked up again his eyes looked just the same as they always did.

"I asked you first, baka!" I argued with a pout as he started to blush and I grinned. He's blushing! He shrugged and pushed past me, continuing to Motoki-kun's. "Don't walk away!" I cried, stomping my foot on the ground. He kept on walking. "Fine! I don't care! I don't want to know why you're such a jerk!" I exclaimed as he continued walking.

Once he was out of view the girls and I started walking in silence yet again when Mako-chan abruptly stopped and looked at me with a gleam in her eyes. "Usa-chan! Mamoru-san likes you!" She declared with a giggle and I choked. Ew, whatever! Rei-chan started giggling and Ami-chan soon joined them in laughing and I just glared at them angrily. They're all crazy! He has to hate me! It's our little unspoken agreement! That baka hates me, I hate him. No one can like anyone and nothing can change! I pouted as contemplated it over in my mind. Nope. Not going to happen.

He's going to be helping Motoki-kun! I'm going to have to work with him! No, no, no! I started to wail and Rei-chan looked at me anxiously. "Daijoubu?" She asked worriedly as I sniffled and looked back at her with a tense smile.

"Nothing! Let's go!" I muttered with a giggle and scratched my head nervously as they all sweat dropped as they stared at me then proceeded to walk to Motoki-kun's apartment.

We finally made it to Motoki-kun's where he stood waving with a warm smile to us; Mamoru also stood there with his arms crossed and a grin on his face. "Odango make you guys late?" He asked with amusement, looking at his watch momentarily and I looked up at him with glassy eyes that soon changed to anger. He stood straighter and uncrossed his arms, looking at me with a concerned expression.

Everyone became silent as they looked at me bewildered and then they all turned to look at Mamoru with and inquisitive gaze. Let's just help Motoki-kun now! Stop looking at us! Mamoru looked intimidated and caged now as he analyzed each of their faces scrupulously. He glanced quickly at me with a pleading look in his eyes and I scrunched up my face in thought. What am I supposed to do?

After a few minutes of silence and exchanged looks at between Mamoru and I he turned around and walked into the apartment complex. Where's Mamo-chan going? Motoki-kun and the girls then turned their attention on me. Great, leave me with these psychos who have vivid imaginations! Thanks a lot Mamoru!

"What was that all about Usa-chan?" Motoki-kun asked softly, walking over and cornering me with the girls' help. Some friends.

"I...how would I know? Mamoru-baka's totally weird!" I snapped and looked at them uneasily, fidgeting under their stares as I briefly glanced over at the door Mamo-chan went through.

"Usa-chan, those looks were totally for you!" Mako-chan proclaimed and I started backing away from them. They're really starting to scare me with all these tries to get Mamoru-baka and me together.

"Wha...what looks?" I asked quietly, feigning innocence though I was sweatdropping like crazy. They all rolled their eyes and turned away from me, forming a group and whispering amongst themselves. I ran to the door and started heading inside the apartment building; I got halfway through the doorway when Rei-chan spoke.

"Where you going Usa-chan?" She questioned with a grin. Stop grinning! I hate her! Brat! Mako-chan and Ami-chan turned around with interest and were soon followed by Motoki-kun. Thank Rei-chan, just draw attention to me...it isn't what you people are thinking anyway.

"I...inside..." I stuttered hesitantly while I sweat dropped. They were all staring me and it was making me really nervous. Now I just wanted to get away from them. I wanted to cry and just make them go away and leave me alone. Let me get in there! Stop talking!

Mako-chan nudged Rei-chan and I watched Ami-chan shake her head as they all turned around, whispering again and I continued going inside. Mamoru was sitting there on one of the couches the lobby contained. It was a stiff looking leather couch with small cushioned pillows and it looked really uncomfortable though Mamoru didn't seem to notice. He had his head in his hands and I heard him mumbling something to himself. Agonizingly I slowly walked over and sat next to him on that horrible couch. I quickly looked at his face in his hands and a blush appeared so I forced my eyes to the ground. Oh Mamo-chan what's wrong?

"Daijoubu Mamoru-san?" I asked softly, almost inaudibly as tears began to fill my eyes and I scowled to try and make them go away. I won't cry, not in front of Mamo-chan. Not so he can make fun of what a baby I am. He kept his head in his palms and sighed loudly into them.

"Usa...Usagi-chan, do I hurt you?" He asked quietly, not moving an inch as he spoke. He...called me by my name...but...what about Odango Atama? Does he hurt me...? Of course not Mamo-chan! Why would you ask such a thing?

"Nani? Mamoru...san..." I asked uncertainly as he looked up at me, into my eyes again. His eyes were swollen and my heart sped up. Oh Mamo-chan! You've been crying...no! You don't hurt me Mamo-chan!

"Nothing Odango." He replied and I looked at him with a wounded expression then followed his eyes to the door where everyone was walking into the foyer. I stood up with a pout, walking up with them to Motoki-kun's apartment and Mamoru following behind me.
