This chapter starts after Usagi receives the flowers and takes them in side. And gives a felling on how she feels towards everything.


I think I've found my prince.

Inside Usagi was sitting watching T.V. she felt that sensation again that she felt on her way to the arcade, like her prince was near her full of love and kindness. It was a little less painful to walk now, so she got off of the couch and carefully opened the door not unlocking the bolt at the top, and peered out side. She saw red roses on the floor and looking around carefully to see if anyone else was there, and seeing no one she opened the door and gracefully bent down and looked at the flowers intently before picking them up. As she did she noticed a note on the ground. She fumbled with the flowers but managed to pick up the note with out damaging a single petal.

She returned inside her home with the note and roses in hand. She returned to the couch and sat down placing the roses on a table next to her. She inspected the envelope thoroughly before she opened it. 'The writing didn't look familiar' she thought to herself. She turned the envelope over on the reverse side to see if there was anything there, and she saw more writing that read "~ A rose for every month I've known you since we've met. I hope you like these roses I chose them for you. ~" Usagi blushed as she read the reverse of the note. Then even more when she looked back towards the roses to smell their intoxicating fragrance. She returned her attention to the note she held in her hands. She toyed with it for a moment getting a sense of who wrote it. She felt anxiety approach her as she slowly tore it open, as it was a letter from her secret love. She slowly tore along the top of the envelope and slowly and shakily pulled out the letter. And allowed her eyes to read it.

" Dear Usagi, she started to read out loud.
You're not weak. You're one of the strongest girls I've ever met. You're so beautiful inside and out. You're intelligent, funny, sweet, one of the most caring and considerate people I've ever met. I remember the first time we met. It was definitely the most interesting way I've ever met a girl.
From that first moment forth I've felt a strange connection to you. And I could at times sense what you were feeling. I know it might be presumptuous of me but I think on some level that you sense me as well. Just a feeling I have. I care about you strongly Usa-ko. I never meant to hurt you, I've just been alone so long that I'm not sure to show you how much I love you. Also, your past isn't going to scare me away from you. In fact it makes me just want to protect you even more. I would never willingly hurt you. You mean everything to me. I'd be willing to say you probably know whom this is from, without me saying.
If anything I feel I'm not worthy of you and I'm hoping someday you could find a place for me in your heart for me. You told me things about you, you've never told anyone. And I will never betray your trust.
I want to tell you something. When I was really young about six or seven my parents and I were in a terrible car accident. Both of my parents died. And I had amnesia and remembered nothing from my childhood. I've been a loner my whole life. I only have Motoki and I'm not all that close with him. This is something I've never told anyone, not even Motoki.
I want you tell me what you think about everything that I've told you. Whether you're confused, angry with me or whatever else you might be feeling. I'm going to the party tonight. I'm going to give you you're space but if you'd like to talk to me about anything I'll be there to hear you. I hope you'll take me up on that.
Bye ~my hoshi Usa.

When she finished reading there were tears in her eyes. She started crying and mumbling Mamoru's name. She had felt the same way but was too afraid to mention anything. She figured a wise 20-year-old would never like a 17-year-old, Especially her. She shined from the inside out, a great glow of happiness.

She noticed the time said 4o'clock. She still had 2 in a half-hours left till she had to be ready for the party. Minako was coming over before hand and they were going to go together. She closed her eyes and slipped into a deep dream.

It was a field of dark ominous looking flowers and Usagi was standing all alone, feeling cold and confused. She was wearing a long white gown. Her hair was down and flowing past her thighs. She saw what looked like the sun or some other immense coming towards her and a dark shadowed figure come towards her bringing with him the light to show their paths. But before he could get to her darkness grabbed her and pulled her away. She was elevated in the in a dark hand. Her eyes were closed but she could feel hands touching her grouping her all over. She felt the evil being full of hatred standing over her. And she started to scream. But suddenly she woke up screaming.

She calmed herself down and she glanced over at the clock and she only had an hour till Minako would arrive. She sleepily got up off the couch she was lying in. And limped up to her room, by now she was sore but her cuts and scratches felt a little better. She cheerfully walked into her room and swung open her closet door. She couldn't decide what to wear so she went and picked up her phone and dialed a rather long number and waited to see if anyone would answer the phone rang a few times and she heard a petite voice say hello.

" Hi can you come over Minako? I need your fashion help." "Hey girl, sure I can be over in 15 minutes." "That'll be cool, thanks." "Bye" after hanging up the phone, she returned into her closet deeply pondering what to wear. As time passed she pulled out a few things she think she might like to wear but she was still unsure. She still had her scars to consider she glumly thought to herself.

Then she heard her doorbell ring. She looked outside her window and saw a mop of blonde hair. She returned down stairs and cautiously opened the door looking outside to see Minako's happy smile. She unlatched the wooden door letting her friend in, and quickly locking it behind her. Minako walked into her bright living room and turned to face her robed friend and said, "shall we?" in a cheery tone. At that Usa replied "We Shall"

As Minako was turning to head up the stair a red object caught her eye she walked over to the table the roses were on, with Usa quickly in toe. She picked up the roses. Usagi managed to get the note before Minako noticed it. She turned to her friend suspiciously "Who are these from?" Her cheeks changed a bright red. "Uh no one" she stammered. She grabbed them out of her friend's hands and continued upstairs. Minako quickly followed behind.

They entered the girls pink room. Minako dropped the subject of the flowers for the time being and concentrated on picking out an outfit for her friend. She looked at the closet and grabbed a bunch of clothes.

Including a pair of hip hugger corduroy bell's, a pair of dark, dark blue flares with zipper's on the legs, a silk skirt that cuts just above the knee, a pair a suede Capri's for bottoms. And a baby blue back-less tank, a quarter sleeve belly shirt, and a little tee with no back that said princess, for tops.

She tried on a bunch of combinations.

The dark, dark blue flares with her a baby blue back-less tank, they were a little heavy and were uncomfortable on her sore leg, and also showed that she has cuts and bruises going all the way up her arm.

Her silk skirt with her quarter sleeve belly shirt, another bad choice this showed her leg and other bruised areas perfectly.

And many other combinations, but what they both decided on for the party were Usa's very, very pale pink big bell corduroy hip huggers and, her cadet blue small backs-less tee that showed off her small stomach, with a pair of light blue platform sneakers. The pants covered her leg and were not uncomfortable for her. The shirt only showed a little of her arm, as well as back injuries.

Now with a little over 25 minutes left Minako decide to do her friends hair. Usa kneeled down in front of Minako, as she started to take out her signature buns and brush her long hair "I knew you had long hair but kami sama girl." She had an idea, she brushed her friends hair in front of her face making the small girl look like cousin it. Then she parted it leaving one side on her friends face covering her scars. Then she took the rest back and french-braided the long hair, once the braid got a little past her neck she put an elastic in it to keep the braid from coming undone and left the rest loose. Then with that she was done.

Her hair was done differently and she wore clothes she never would have worn on her own. Once they had finished they started to head out of Usa's room and down stairs. But before she left Usa grabbed 3 roses. And brought them down stairs with her. She went in the kitchen and took a small knife and carefully removed the thorns from all three flowers. And cut two of the roses shorter. She stuck one in her braid and one in Minako's bow that held her hair up. Then they grabbed their coats and head out the door.
