Opening one of the boxes, Usagi surveyed her new bedroom. Even through the room was plain white, the detailed doors and high ceiling caught her attention. Looking more closely now, she saw an intricate design on rose buds entwined together with hearts peeking through the vines. Usagi stared in awe touching the top of the glass doors that opened up to the balcony. Beyond the doors revealed the most beautiful rose garden Usagi had ever seen, even if she was just staring from above. She made a mental note to go out there when she had the chance.

Usagi jumped a bit as a ringing went through the silent room.

"It's just the phone," she told herself laughing picking up her cell.

"Hello, Tsukino Usagi here."

"Hello, Hino Rei here, you know, your friend," Rei mocked playfully.

"Ha ha," Usagi uttered sitting down on the bed. "I thought you were already on the plane to the Paris," she inquired remembering that Rei had said she was going to visit Yuuichirou who was on a rock tour.

"Well I thought I was too but my flight was canceled because it's snowing there. It would snow when I finally get a chance to visit Yuuichirou," Rei grumbled into the phone.

"So why are you calling me about it?" Usagi joked. Out of all her friends, she was the only one that didn't have a boyfriend, engaged, or married. She was the butt of their jokes when it came up. Usagi thought it was funny too so she didn't mind.

"Ha ha."

Usagi laughed at the young priestess's sarcasm.

"I need a ride from the airport back home. Can you please come and pick me up if you're not busy? I would take a cab but I realized I left my purse at the temple for some odd reason," Rei said hoping that Usagi wasn't busy. Ami was on a medical convention with her husband, Urawa Ryo, Makoto was working, and Minako couldn't be reached. That girl was always out somewhere or another.

"Of course I will," Usagi agreed. "I'll be there soon."

"Thanks Usagi. You're a life saver."

"Now I could have told you that," Usagi snickered pressing the 'end' button before Rei got the chance to say anything else. She grabbed a pullover and her keys going out the bedroom door.

Usagi didn't get too far after that for she collided with pink hair.

"Oof," cried Chibi-Usa, giggling at the same time.

"You okay?" Usagi asked helping her up.

"Yes, thank you. Where are you going," Chibi-Usa asked pointing to Usagi's hand with the sweater and keys.

"I'm fixing to go and pick up a friend of mine from the airport." She paused. "Would you like to come along?"

"Really? Can I?" Chibi-Usa shrieked lightly.

"Sure," she replied nodding. "Ask your dad first okay?"

Chibi-Usa nodded taking off towards Mamoru's study with Usagi following in suit. Walking in, all they saw was a landfilled desk, literally.

"Daddy?"

"Mhm?" said the stack of papers moving.

A small grin spread itself across Usagi's face as Mamoru's head peaked out from behind the heap of files. Mamoru had a pencil stuck behind one ear, a pen in his mouth, his glasses on his head, and a highlighter in his left hand. Somehow, Usagi managed to suppress a laugh.

"May I go with Miss Usagi today?" Chibi-Usa asked appearing next to the chair.

Mamoru looked up at Usagi for clarification.

"A friend of mine is at the airport and needs a ride. Is it okay with you if I take Chibi-Usa with me? She won't be a bother, don't worry."

"Well, all right,' Mamoru granted. "I have a lot of work to do around here so it would be good if someone could take her out today."

"Thank you Daddy!" Chibi-Usa beamed and hugged him tight.

"We'll be back sometime this afternoon," Usagi announced as they went out the door.

Mamoru watched them leave and then turned back to his desk. The mountain of papers seemed to have gotten higher in the last 3 minutes.

This is going to be a long day...

"Seat belts, please," Usagi said buckling her own. "Ready?"

"Yes ma'am!"

"Let's get rolling!"

Usagi pulled out of the driveway heading towards Tokyo International Airport. She fiddled with the radio for a bit and found a good song to listen to. An up beat tempo filled with car.

Hello world

This is me

Life should be

Fun for everyone

Every now and then

I'm insecure

Let me show you life

Can be so pure

Seize the day

Wear a big happy smile

On your face

In every life

A little rain will fall

That won't change

My attitude at all

You are you

I am me

We'll be free

Chibi-Usa giggled slightly as Usagi sang along with chorus. Usagi laughed when she looked over at her.

"You sing pretty," commented Chibi-Usa.

"Thanks," Usagi replied blushing a bit. She looked over at her and wondered something. Getting brave she asked her question.

"Chibi-Usa, what happened to your mom?"

Chibi-Usa scrunched her face up a bit as if she were thinking. After a short silence, with the exception of the music in the background, she gave Usagi an answer.

"Daddy say I don't got a mommy. He said the stork dropped me off one day!" Chibi-Usa grinned in her toddler way.

Usagi pondered over this wondering what she meant. Many questions ran through her mind but she knew that a three-year-old could not answer. She couldn't dismiss the thoughts so she changed the subject to something else. But still she wondered...

"Konnichi wa!"

"Bonjour!"

"Hola!"

"Gutentag!"

"Hello!"

Greetings of different nationalities echoed off the walls of the front lobby of Tokyo International. In the mist of it all stood a raven- haired young woman with her arms crossed not looking too pleased. Every so often she would check her wristwatch and look toward the doors.

Rei Hino stood impatiently with a bag at her feet waiting for Usagi. She sighed half-heartedly watching people of all ages, sizes, and ethnicity pass by her. Laughing, chattering, screaming, hugging, and even kissing these people were around her.

Rei sat down on a bench for her legs were getting sore. She fiddled around with a gorgeous 24k-diamond ring on her left hand unconsciously. Smiling, Rei remembered the night before Yuuichirou left for the rock tour group 2 months ago.

~*Flashback*~

They were sitting in the park in a secluded area with candles lit that gave the atmosphere that romantic feeling. Surrounding them were fallen leaves of autumn giving the place a colorful look. Wrapped up in a blanket and in each other's arms, Rei and Yuuichirou were the happiest people on earth.

Yuuichirou kissed Rei playfully on the nose making her giggle like a love- struck girl all over again. They talked about everything and anything that crossed their mind. They talked about the first time they met, which at the time Rei disliked him so much, when he showed up on the steps of the Cherry Hill Temple. But, as time passed, she grew fond of him and before she knew it they were dating for 4 years. Rei loved every minute being with him. She surprised their friends as being one of the firsts to fall in love.

As they were gathering their belonging together, Yuuichirou grabbed Rei's arm and she dropped everything in her hand as he led her over to a bench. He knelt down in front of her taking both her hands in his caressing them gently. Yuuichirou took a deep breath before beginning.

"Rei Hino, I have loved you since the first time I met you even through you didn't feel the same way about me."

A smile was brought out from then both.

"And I want to spend the rest of my life with you and I hope that you feel the same. I guess what I'm trying to say, or rather ask is," he paused for a moment releasing one hand from hers reaching into his pocket. "Rei Hino, will you marry me?"

Tears streamed down her cheek as she wrapped her arms around his neck.

"Yes," she whispered gently into his ear, "I will gladly marry you."

And with that they finished the rest of their date back at the house.

~*End Flashback*~

Usagi and Chibi-Usa burst through the automatic doors and found Rei sitting on the bench with a happy-go-lucky look on her face and a hand on her stomach. Usagi grinned and went over to Rei to get out of her daydream with Chibi-Usa tagging along.

Tap, tap

"AHHHHHHH!!!!"

"Whoops..."

"Odango Atama!!!"

Cringe

Rei leaned back on the bench as Usagi apologized with a smirk on her face. Everyone around them had turned their attention to the two bickering girls and then turned away.

"Usagi, you could have given me a heart attack!" yelled Rei standing up.

"That's true," said Usagi, "Then I wouldn't have anybody else to scare." She smiled and gave Rei a hug as she hugged back. Glancing over Usagi's shoulder, she noticed the little pink haired girl.

"Whoa there Odango Atama," Rei said kneeling down to Chibi-Usa's level. "I don't see you for a day and you already have a kid. What's your name?"

"Chibi-Usa," she answered curtseying a bit.

"Wow, nice kid. What are you doing with Usagi over there?" Rei grinned and looked at Usagi who gave her a 'ha-ha not funny' look.

"But seriously, what are you doing here with her?" Rei asked not looking at Usagi.

"Daddy said it was okay if Miss Usagi took me to see her friend. Are you that friend?" asked Chibi-Usa.

"Yep, unfortunately so," Rei nodded amusing herself.

"Hey now," said Usagi, "Chibi-Usa and I can just go if you don't need a ride..." She grinned.

"Alright, alright. I'll quit. But it's so easy to crack on you Odango Atama," Rei grinned.

Suddenly one of their stomachs growled and then another one followed. Usagi and Chibi-Usa looked at each other and started cracking up along with Rei.

"Looks like your stomachs are trying to say something," said Rei. "How about I take you guys out to eat. I haven't had lunch so...my treat."

"Hey I never pass up free food," Usagi said.

"We know."

"Hey!"

They walked out of the airport, got into the Usagi's car, and headed out to find some place to eat.

The three drove up to a casual restaurant named 'The Ronso Buffet', a place where Makoto worked as the head chef. They had to wait to be seated since people from all over Tokyo came to eat just to get a taste of Makoto's fabulous cooking. Rumor had it she was about to open up her own restaurant.

Usagi, Rei, and Chibi-Usa were finally seated at a booth near the kitchen where a waiter took their orders and a request to see Ms. Kino. The waiter was about to protest but then Makoto suddenly came out from behind the swinging doors.

"Hey!" greeted Makoto with hug. "What are you guys doing here? And who's that little girl with you'll?"

"Well," begin Usagi, "We were hungry and Rei decided to treat us to lunch so we decided to come here. And this," she motioned towards Chibi-Usa, "Is Chibi-Usa, my boss's daughter." Usagi kinda laughed at the expressions on Makoto's and Rei's faces.

"I'll explain later. But for right now, how about some lunch!"

Forty minutes later, Usagi, Rei, Chibi-Usa, and Makoto, who decided to take her break, finished their lunch.

"This is delicious Makoto!"

"Ditto!"

"Thank guys. By the way, it's on the house," Makoto said.

"Thanks girlie!" complimented Rei.

"Mm, Usagi, you said you were going to tell us about her?" Makoto said gesturing to Chibi-Usa who had fallen asleep with her head in Usagi's lap. After all, kids do take naps.

"Oh yeah," begin Usagi, "Chibi-Usa is Chiba Mamoru's daughter, my new boss. I'm her nanny." Seeing the confused look on both their faces she continued.

"Saturday morning, the bit-..excuse me, Desiree came and told me that I had to be out of there by that evening or else. Well I went to the park to cool off and I was looking through the ads when I saw a job for a nanny. But then the paper blew away and all, then Chibi-Usa came up to me cause she was lost and..." Usagi continued on telling them the rest of story to up this morning.

"...so that's that," she finished.

"Dang girl," remarked Mako, "You sure that all happened in one weekend?"

"Yep, pretty sure."

Rei had a strange look on her face as if she were trying to remember something.

"You said Chiba Mamoru, right?" asked Rei.

"Yes..," Usagi said nodding slowly.

"Do you recall a Chiba Mamoru in high school? I think we were freshmen and he was a senior," Rei reminisced. Both Usagi and Makoto were trying to remembering but came up with nothing.

"He was in one of my elective classes...French, I think." Rei was trying to figure it out when it finally hit her. "Yeah he was, I remember now! He was in there to get an extra credit because he just want to or something. Actually come to think of it, he never really talked to anyone but this guy named Motoki or something," Rei said shrugging.

"Hey, isn't Minako dating a guy named Motoki? Furuhata Motoki, I think," asked Makoto.

"You know what," said Usagi, "That would make this story even weirder if that were true too." The others nodded in agreement. They were silent for a ten seconds.

"Well," Makoto said getting up, "I've gotta get back to work. I'll see you guys later. Be sure to fill me in on all this." she made varies circles in the air with her hand. Then she went back into the kitchen.

"This is very interesting...," commented Usagi with her lips together nodding slowly.

"Very..." agreed Rei.

"Well I guess I'd better get her back," Usagi said picking up Chibi-Usa who was starting to wake up. "Let me drop her and I'll take you back to your place."

"Fine by me. Besides I wanna met this guy. You never know, he might just be the same person I knew in high school," said Rei shrugging.
