Chapter 2

Usagi stood behind the counter of the general store she is currently working. Because she doesn't like to go home and hear her mother nag, she decided to work part time in the store. The money's good. And she gets to study without her mother complaining in her ear. She was still staring at her book when she heard the door tingle, signaling a customer just came in. She immediately stood and smiled.

"What can get you?," she said, her smile slowly fading when she saw Sieya with his two friends, Yaten and Taiki standing in front of the counter. Sieya smiled.

"You," Sieya drawled. He stood closer to her. "Shouldn't you be going out with a guy like me? Ditch that Mamoru, and go out with me. I promise you'll enjoy my company"

"Go to hell". She turned to walk away but was pulled back by Sieya. He tsked her. "Usagi, I'm shock with your rudeness. By the way, I'm here to remind you about our date tonight"

She stared coldly at him. "I wouldn't go out with a scum like you"

"Surprisingly, your mom doesn't think so. As a matter of fact, she called me last night and she told me you would like to go out with me tonight"

Usagi gave a cry of outrage. "She called you. You go out with her"

"I think I would prefer your company better"

She shook her arm free, flinging him off. "That call has nothing to do with me. I'd rather eat rocks everyday then go out with you"

"What the hell is going on here!!," a voice thundered out. Both of them turn towards Mr. Jones, the owner of the general store. "Sieya, I want you out of here, now! Don't let me catch you hanging around here no more"

Sieya shrugged but before he left, he turns and blew a kiss towards her. "See you tonight. I'll pick you up at 9"

Mrs. Tsukino heard the front door slammed shut. "You're home, I've-"

"-plan a date for me and Sieya for tonight! What the hell are you thinking?," Usagi shouted.

"Don't you talk to your mother like that!," Mrs. Tsukino barked. She twisted back to her cooking. "I did for your own good"

"My own good! My own-," Usagi sputtered. "I'm not going out with Sieya! You planned this, you'll go out with him! Leave me out of this!". She turns and was going to return to her room.

"Usagi! I'm ordering you to go out with him! My job will be at stacked here! If you cancel your date with him, I'll get fired, or have you forgotten, I working in his company! If I get fired, we won't have food on the table. For heaven sake, what's wrong with going out with Sieya. Nothing's going to happen"

"What are your plans for tonight?"

"Err, I thought I would just have dinner, study a little and then go to sleep," Usagi lied into the phone. She didn't want to tell him about the date with Sieya. "What about you?"

"Oh, I'll just be bored stiff because I'm not with you, but I think I'll think of you constantly," Mamoru teased. "Will you think of me too?"

"Oh yes, you know what? I think I got to go now," she said desperately because she's scared that she will accidentally spill out about the date. "I love you, Mamoru, "she added.

"I love you too," he said huskily and then hung up. She said on the bed for god knows how long. She didn't even hear the door bell rang. A knocked came on her door. Mrs. Tsukino's head popped in.

"Sieya's here"

Usagi took a deep breath and then made a move to go down. Mrs. Tsukino stopped her.

"You don't intend to go out like that do you?"

Usagi narrowed her eyes. "I'll wear what I like". And then she went down. Sieya had on gray linen slacks and a black oxford shirt. He was standing in the living room with flowers in his hands. When he saw her, he smile and offered her the flowers. She snatched them out from him and threw it on the couch.

"Let's get it done quickly," she said briskly and quickly walk towards his car. She saw him smile smugly and throughout the journey, ignored him completely.

"That show was fantastic right?"

"It was downright boring," she said rudely. The show was interesting, but throughout the show, Sieya kept trying to loop his arm behind her chair. She kept trying to brush him off every time he did it. In the end, she didn't get to see the show at all. When they reach outside her house, he lean on the doorway.

"Well, aren't you gonna invite me in?," he asks. But when she got in, he quickly step in and winked at her. "Thanks"

She scowled. "Get out from my house"

He tsked her. "How rude you are. Shouldn't you reward me by kissing me for taking you out?"

"I never want to see you again. Get out". She turns to open the front door, but was grabbed from behind. "Let go of me!," she demanded, struggling to free herself. She took a deep breath to start screaming but her mouth was covered by his hand.

"Before I leave, I will have to fuck you first"
