Summary: Rich college playboy Mamoru Chiba is engaged to high school klutz, Usagi. They had been going out for one year before he proposed. It seemed to good to be true and it wasn't because that whole year was just a bet.





She heard the knock on her apartment door, and knew it was Mamoru. She hurried over to the door, opened it and smiled at him.

"Are you ready?" He asked, taking her into his arms. To his surprise and dismay, instead of kissing him like she usually did, she got out of his grasp and started to walk to her room.

"yes, just let me grab my purse," she answered. She knew what she did shocked him, but let him be shocked, because after all he was the one that gave her the biggest shock of her life. She wasn't going to tell him she knew yet, and she wasn't going to cry all her life knowing he didn't love her. She was going to play along with it until the wedding day. Then she would give him a surprise he'll never forget. Wit these thoughts, she walked out of her room, and grinned at Mamoru.

"All right, let's go."



Mamoru glanced sideways at the woman he loved. She looked beautiful, as always, but she hadn't said a word to him the whole time since they had left her apartment. He was a little concerned that she might be upset with him, but they always had the little fights and always made up, that was why he didn't ask her about her unusual behavior.

"Wanna dance?" He asked, trying to lighten up the mood.

"No," was the cold reply he got. Shrugging, he looked up and his body immediately froze as he saw the man he hated most walking towards them. Mamoru, badly wanted to wipe that smile off of his face, but instead gave a tight smile of his own.

Usagi had felt Mamoru stiffen as she saw one of her best friends walking towards them. Usagi grinned at him, as he got closer. Usagi knew Mamoru despised her friend, and that Mamoru was jealous of him. She didn't know why, she had many other guy friends, and Mamoru was never cold and hostile towards them. Shrugging it off, she walked towards the man and her smile widened.

"Hey Yaten-chan!" she exclaimed and threw herself in his arms.

(I was sooo tempted to end it there but realized it would be too short for the huge amount of review I got)

"Usa!" he grinned, "missed me?"

Mamoru felt his blood boil, what the hell had he been thinking when he brought her to this party? It was a welcome back party for that bastard after all. He hated the man, and if he got the chance he wouldn't hesitate to kill him. He also noticed the way Usagi's face lit up as soon as she saw him, how she instantly went from angry to happy, that only added to his anger.

To Mamoru's relief the couple broke apart before he had to do break them up himself. Yaten looked towards Mamoru and smiled mockingly, like the jackass knew what Mamoru was thinking.

"Hey Mamoru," his smiled widened as he saw the scowl in his face, "nice to see you again."

"Yaten," Mamoru nodded coldly, he gave Usagi a look that said he wanted to leave. But Usagi completely ignored him, and focused her full attention on Yaten.

"I'm so glad you're back Yaten," she smiled sweetly at him. And she really was, she needed comfort after what she had found out. She quickly dismissed that thought from her mind and looked at Yaten again, "Let's go dance!" With that she grabbed his hand and dragged him towards the dance floor. Yaten looked back at Mamoru and smirked.

"Bye Mamo-chan!" he said, mockingly before disappearing into the dancing crowd. Mamoru tried to ignore that annoying voice and concentrated on counting backwards from 10. When that didn't work, he walked towards the bar to get himself some drinks.



Usagi looked up at Yaten and grinned, "I see you've gotten taller."

Yaten pouted at her, "And I see you've gotten shorter," he shot back. Usagi stuck her tongue out at him and leaned closer. Currently, a slow song was playing, and honestly, Usagi was very comfortable like this with Yaten. She did feel guilty about doing that to Mamoru, but look what he had done to her, he deserved this. She looked back at the bar, when she heard a crash and shouting.

"What's going on," she looked at Yaten, worried.

"It's probably just a bar fight," he said, starting to walk towards the huge crowd, "I'm gonna go check it out, you stay right here."

"Yaten!" Usagi exclaimed, running towards him, "wait for me!"

When they got to the center of the crowd they saw two men engaged in a fight. Both were bleeding severely, and currently the smaller man was on top of the larger man, trying to punch him.

Usagi gasped, "Yaten.that's Mamoru!"
