I know it has been
a while, but what can I say? Been
really busy lately. Read and Review.

The teacher drawled on an on about the Art of
War and the Chinese strategies on warfare but all Usagi could think about was a
certain dark haired man that had a heart of stone. Her Mamoru, a name she had been trying to forget for a
month. She hadn't seen him since she
gave her virginity to him like some cheap harlot. She was true to her word though, for she hasn't set foot in his
establishment since. She had even moved
out of her cousins' apartment, telling them that she wanted to live on campus
for the first semester. Really she just
didn't want to be reminded of him, of the club, of none of it. Her cousins still didn't know how far she
had went with Mamoru but they did know that she didn't want to see him again,
they excepted the excuse she gave them, that she disliked him because he had
come on to her, vulgarly. It had taken
a lot of convincing to prevent Rei from going down to the club and pounding on
him. Her and Mina had talked her out of
it though, and Usagi still didn't think that Minako completely bought her
story. So Usagi had moved on campus
when school started, hopefully leaving behind the Silver Rose, and Mamoru
forever. She kept in contact with her
cousins and frequently went to visit them or they her, but they never mentioned
the night of the party or the club and for that she was grateful.
"Mrs. Tsukino, what do you think"? The teacher asked impatiently.
Usagi sat in her desk still caught up in her
thoughts, so caught up that she did not hear the teacher call her name.
Ami, her roommate, kicked the back of her
chair, finally bringing her from her reverie.
"Mrs. Tsukino"? The teacher asked again this
time becoming irritated from the girl's obvious lack of attention.
"Yes, Haruna-sensei". Usagi said
embarrassed. She cast a grateful look
behind her to Ami. She was lucky her
friend sat behind her that day.
"Would you like to join the class"? Mrs.
Haruna asked a smirk hiding her irritation.
"Sorry, Haruna-sensei" She said trying to sink
down in her chair. Soon the class
dismissed.
"Usagi, girl you really need to start paying more attention. I thought Haruna-sensei was going to throw a gasket". Makoto said as her, Usagi, and Ami exited the classroom.
"Yeah, Usa, she must have called your name three times." Ami said giggling.
Makoto, Usagi, and Ami had become fast friends. Both Ami and Usagi was freshmen, Makoto was a sophomore. While Ami and Usagi roomed together in the freshmen dorms, Makoto lived with her husband, Neph, and their two-year old daughter, Yume, in an apartment near campus.
Ami's fiancé, Zack, lived in the male dorms
across campus.
Usagi couldn't help but envy what her two new
friends had with their loves. Zack was
a sweety and loved Ami very much. Neph
graduated last year and opened a restaurant named after his wife and daughter,
Sincerity's Dream, was one of the most prestigious new restaurants in
Tokyo.
"There she goes again, Ami, off in lala
land". Makoto said pointing at
Usagi. She had just asked Usagi a
question but her friend seemed distracted.
"Sorry, Mako, what did you say"?
"There's a party over in Sander's Hall. Are you going? Ami already said that she and Zack are down". Makoto repeated.
Usagi turned to her friend, her face in forged
surprised.
"You mean to tell me that Nephy is letting you
out to party. Oh my"?
"Funny, rabbit. He's coming too of course. We haven't been out since Yume was one. I'm taking her over to my sister's and we are going to have a kid free
night". Makoto said smiling at the
thought of a free night without her daughter. She loved her daughter dearly but her and Neph really needed a minute
without her to do adult stuff. She
knew, however, that she would end up calling her sister throughout the night
checking on her little Dream.
"I'll be the only one without a date". Usagi said whining.
"You have Neph and Ami has Zack, you guys will
leave me sitting alone while you dance and have fun."
"My brother is in town, he can take you". Ami said.
Seems as though they've thought this out. Usagi thought
glancing wearily at her friends. She
knew their intentions were good. She
had been somewhat depressed since she fled from Mamoru. Her friends, even though they didn't know
her then, could sense that the melancholy girl they had gotten used to was not
Usagi's true self. They only wanted her
to get out and have fun, and hopefully she would come out of her slump.
"It's settled then. Usagi you have to come". Makoto said.
Usagi thought for a moment remembering what
happened at the last party she went to.
That part of my life is over now. It's time to move on.
"Ok. I'll go. This brother of yours
had better be cute, Ames". Usagi said
giggling along with her friends.
Mamoru sat behind his large mahogany desk in a
rather foul mood. It had been a month
since Usako ran from him, ran out of his life. He had no idea where she was, and he had looked, Kami how he had looked
for her. He still looked for her, even
now. It was ironic, after all the
broken hearts and empty promises he had given to women that was momentarily in
his life, one of his games had driven away the one woman that he could love,
that he did love. It had taken him a
while to adjust to the fact that he was in love with Usako, his rabbit, but now
that he had accepted this great realization, he didn't know what to do. He had planned on seducing her; he had never
planned on being seduced himself.
"Hey bro". Mal said walking into his office. He was meet with an unfriendly scowl. Mal just shrugged it off. He was
used to his brother's mood swings especially now.
"What do you want, Mal." Mamoru growled out his bad mood apparent.
"Just came to see how you were doing". Mal said sitting in one of the chairs in
front of Mamoru's desk.
"Now you see, so leave".
"Bro, you really need to lighten up, you've
been down in the dumps since.." He said letting the sentence trail off. He really didn't want to go there with
Mamoru at the moment.
"You mean since the party, since that bitch
ran out on me". Mamoru said his anger
masking his hurt. He flinched inwardly
at the word he had used for his Usako. He didn't know why he felt such anger
toward the girl at the moment. He
couldn't blame anyone for her leaving, no one but himself.
"Don't call her that, Mamoru. If you and Jed hadn't made that stupid plan,
she would probably still be here with you. If you would have just told her how you felt from the beginning instead
of trying to get in her panties, maybe she would be in your arms right now."
Mal said genuine anger flashing in his gray eyes. He couldn't believe how his brother had treated Usagi. She was such a sweet girl, she didn't
deserve that and if he had known what his brother and Jed had been planning he
would have put a stop to it.
"What do you want from me, Mal? I'm sorry. You
have no idea how sorry I am, for how I treated Usako. Don't blame Jed though, I put him up to it." Mamoru said leaning wearily back in his
chair.
"So what are you going to do about it, little
bro"? Mal asked eyeing Mamoru intensely.
"I don't know." He said lowering his head in his hands.
"I don't know".
Usagi sat down at her desk in her
bedroom. She only had two classes
today, an 8:00 and a 9:00, and she was through with both. She decided to finish up her homework and
take a long nap. Ami had two more classes so she had the room to herself, which
was ok with her because she needed some time alone.
She sipped on a strawberry shake for
breakfast, which was beginning to make her nauseous.
She quickly ran to the bathroom spilling the
contents that were in her stomach into the porcelain toilet.
She flushed when she was finished and washed
the sour taste from her mouth.
She began to shake visibly. Her thoughts taking her to a place she
didn't want to go.
"Oh, Kami". She said out loud her voice trembling.
'My period, I'm late for my period". She said counting the days back in her
mind. She had forgot all about it with
moving into the dorms, classes, and meeting new friends. She had forgot all about the fact that she
was two weeks late for her menstrual cycle.
Doesn't mean anything.
People are late all the time.
I'm
only two weeks late so I can't possibly be…be…
She couldn't even finish the thought. The very aspect of it scared the hell out of
her. Then she remembered that Ami had a
pregnancy scare last month and had bought two E.P.T tests. She had only used one, which turned out
negative. Usagi quickly got the extra
one.
I'm not pregnant.
I'm going to take this to be sure though, but I know it'll come up negative, just like Ames did.
She thought and opened the pack.
"Let's see, it says here, a minus means life
is fair and just, and a plus means go buy a baby carriage 'cause you
pregnant". She read trying to lighten
the situation.
She then followed the instructions to the
letter and waited for the results, which according to the box, would show in
thirty seconds.
Her eyes widened as she stared at the results. A plus stared back at her.
"Shimatta". She whispered.
No, oh kami no.
Sorry so short people.
I used a few Japanese words in this fic, so
here are the meanings in case you didn't already know them.
Yume: Dream
Makoto: Sincerity
Shimatta: Damn or Shit
