CHAPTER FIVE: THAT BASTARD!

With a sigh Duo walked into his simple yet comfortable apartment as he pressed a button on his phone.

"You have one message." The robotic voice said as Duo slumped onto his couch.

'Only one message, man I suck,' he thought as the message was read.

"Hey Duo," Quartre's voice struck clear in his system, "I thought that since the war's over we could have a reunion. Call me once you get this."

Duo shot up from the couch with a smile on his face but then frowned, 'I don't know..'

He slowly sat back down again, 'Do I want to go? Or not?'

He tilted his head and looked at the white bare ceiling. The sun gave a comfortable light in the room. He then closed his eyes, letting the sun's warmth soak into his system as his mind wandered off to a certain goddess.

Duo saw Usagi's astonishing face of true beauty. She looked like the son goddess because of her hair then you'll think other wise that she's the moon goddess because of her untouched skin.

He breathed deeply as if taking in her scent of flowers in bloom. A smile spread quickly on his face, 'I love her...' he thought.

He shot up and said out loud, "I love her... gods I love her."

Usagi walked downstairs slowly in a tired manner as Luna followed nearby.

"Hey meatball head!" Sammy teased with a smile on his face.

Usagi's puffed eyes narrowed at her brother, "Shut up about that crap!"

Sammy moved away from the angered Usagi, but then stopped and looked worriedly at her, "What's wrong Usagi?"

Tears stung her eyes once more as she carelessly sat on the steps and cried. Luna came up to her, trying to once again comfort her mistress.

Sammy quickly came forward and rubbed her back up and down, trying to decrease the crying, 'Usagi's really crying... not the annoying noise, but seriously crying.' He thought as his their mother came from upstairs to see what they were fighting about.

"Sammy what did you do?" Ikuku asked sternly as she looked worriedly at her daughter, 'She's actually crying.'

"I didn't do a thing," Sammy protested.

Ikuku bent down and asked Usagi, "What's wrong dear?"

Usagi looked up and said softly, "Mamoru... he's cheating me."

Ikuku gasped and held onto her weeping daughter and cooed, "It's alright. Everything will be fine."

As Usagi's body shook Sammy made a promise to himself to watch out for his sister and probably choose the perfect guy for her. But probably not, 'I'll test the next guy she chooses.' He thought with determination.

Duo walked out of his apartment, knowing something was wrong, but can't quite get a finger on it.

The streets were crowded so he made sure that didn't bump into somebody, the smells of delicious food came from the restaurants. All of a sudden his stomach growled.

'Great, I'm hungry,' he thought with a frown as he enter some restaurant and took a seat.

"Can I help you?" a waitress with a slight blush on her asked while placing a menu in front of him.

"No, not yet," Duo replied.

"I'll come back later to take your order," she said politely as she walked away.

Duo turned his attention to his menu, 'Hmm... what shall I have?'

"Come on Mamoru, we gotta go now,"

Duo looked up at the red headed girl when he heard the familiar name, Mamoru.

"Ok, ok Lil, I'm coming," and surely Duo saw in shock that Mamoru came up the 'Lil' girl and kissed her in public.

After that the two walked out. Duo immediately got up and followed them, wanting to pond that bastard to pulp. The anger inside him built higher and higher, not only for himself but also for a certain goddess he cared for.

He exited the restaurant and saw nothing but people he didn't recognize. He sighed, went back in and sat down.

"That bastard," Duo muttered in anger between clenched teeth.

END!
