The five-year-old Usagi rushed up to the window. Today they would be getting new neighbors. She peeked outside and saw a moving van pull into the driveway next door. Usagi hoped a kid would be moving in. There weren't many kids for her to play with in her neighborhood. Usagi's eyes darted to the car that also pulled up in the driveway next door. Usagi rushed into the kitchen to tell the news.

"Mommy, Mommy they're here!" she exclaimed excitedly.

Her mom looked down at her. "That's great honey!" she sweetly answered.

"Can we go see them?" the impatient Usagi asked.

"Why don't we wait till they are all settled in" her mom answered. Usagi pouted; she wanted to see the neighbors now. She ran back to the window and looked next door. She saw a lady and a man get out of the car. Usagi frowned; she didn't see a kid. Just then another car door opened and out came a boy about her age. His hair was a chestnut brown. His eyes showed adventure and excitement. His hair reached mid-back and was put into a braid. Usagi looked confused; she had never seen a boy with long hair like that. She didn't care though; at least a kid was moving in. She ran back to her mom from the window.

"Mommy a boy my age is moving in!" she exclaimed.

"That's great maybe you two could play together" her mom suggested.

Usagi nodded smiling. "When can we go see them?" Usagi asked.

"In four hours" her mom answered. Usagi frowned; that was too long for her.

"In the meantime I want you to take a bath" her mom said. Usagi nodded and headed upstairs. She pulled out a tee-shirt and a pair of jean shorts. She went to the bathroom and looked at herself in the mirror. Her hair was a mess. She took it out of the balls she had had it in. She called them odangos. Her hair was golden and reached her waist. When she put it up in odangos her hair hung down a little past her shoulders. She smiled. She couldn't wait to see the boy moving in next door. She hoped he would be nice. Usagi turned on the water and got ready for her bath.

Usagi's mom finished putting her hair up in odangos and got up. "Now?" Usagi asked. "Yes" her mom said smiling. Usagi rushed to the front door and put on her sandals. She was going to meet the neighbors she opened the door and rushed outside. Her mom followed her across to the house next door. Usagi rung the doorbell and waited patiently for an answer. A tall lady answer the door. Usagi's mom walked up. "Hi; you must be the new neighbors" her mom greeted. The lady nodded smiling. "Yeah we just got here" she answered. "We just wanted to welcome you here" Usagi's mom said. "Thank you" the lady answered. "My name is Beth" the lady said introducing herself. "This is Duo" she said pulling out the five year old boy. The boy crossed his arms pouting. "Hi I'm Dave" the man said. "This is Usagi" Usagi's mom said pushing Usagi in front of her. Usagi smiled sweetly at the boy. "Hi" she said shyly. The boy stuck up his nose. "Duo be nice" Beth said. Duo rolled his eyes. He did not want to meet a girl. "My name is Carry" Usagi's mom said. "Come in" Beth said. They both nodded. Usagi walked into the house. It was almost exactly like her house. "Duo why don't you show Usagi your room" his mom said. Duo rolled his eyes but did what his mom told him to do. "Come on" he said ushering Usagi with his hand.

Usagi followed him upstairs. She looked in his room. It had space shuttles and pictures of guns around the room. There were boxes around the room. Duo didn't think she would like his room very much; it was for a boy.

"Your room is cool" Usagi said smiling.

Duo looked surprised. "You do?" he asked.

"Sure it has outer space in it" Usagi said.

"You like space too?" he asked. Usagi nodded.

"Love it" she answered. She looked around the room and saw a fake microphone.

"You like singing?" she asked. Duo nodded.

"Yeah" he answered coolly.

"But isn't singing for girls?" Usagi asked confused.

Duo shook his head. "Boys sing too" he said.

"Oh" Usagi answered.

"I like singing and performing too" Usagi said smiling at him.

Duo smiled; they had a lot in common. Usagi couldn't hold her curiosity anymore. She had to ask him about his hair.

"Why don't you cut your hair?" she asked.

"Be cause I just don't want to" Duo said sticking up his nose.

"But boys have short hair" Usagi said confused.

"Well I don't" Duo answered pouting.

"Do you think I'm weird?" he asked.

"No" Usagi answered sincerely.

Usagi laughed.

"What's so funny?" Duo asked.

"You make me laugh" Usagi in the middle of a fit of giggles. Duo started to laugh too. "Usagi!" her mom called from downstairs. Usagi perked up and stopped laughing. "I have to go Duo; maybe we can play tomorrow" Usagi said waving and leaving his room. "Bye!" he yelled after her. Usagi skipped out of the house and back to hers. "So is Duo nice?" her mom asked. "Yeah" Usagi answered smiling. "Good he can come over tomorrow to play" her mom said. Usagi smiled. She was glad she had someone to play with.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*Next Day*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Usagi got on a pair of capris and a summer shirt and brushed her hair. "Usagi! Duo is here!" her mom yelled. "Ok, hold on" Usagi said putting her hair into odangos. Usagi walked downstairs and saw Duo at the door. "Hi Duo" she said sweetly. "Hi" Duo answered back. Usagi walked up to him. "Lets go out side" she suggested. "Ok" Duo answered shrugging. Usagi took him to the swing set in the back yard.

"Want to play a game?" she asked looking at Duo. "What game?" he asked. Usagi ran up to him and hit him in the shoulder. "Tag you're it" she squealed while running away from him. "Oh no you don't" Duo yelled playfully. He started to run after her. She was fast so it took a while for him to catch up. He was right on her heels.They raced around the yard several times. He grabbed her arm and tackled her down. They laughed as they rolled on the grass. Usagi took controll and pinned him down with her body. "Got ya" she said on top of him. Duo smirked. He made them roll again but again Usagi pinned him down again. She laughed. "You'll never get me" she said playfully. "Yeah right" Duo said rolling his eyes. They started laughing again. "Can I get up?" Duo asked. Usagi nodded and got off of him. They went up to the fort of the swing set and sat in there. "This fort is only for the us; it's a club" Usagi said. Duo nodded. "Yeah it is only for us" he said laughing. "This is our secret meeting place" Usagi said. Duo nodded. Usagi looked at Duo he was a great friend to her. "Duo?" Usagi asked. "Yeah?" he asked leaning against the for walls. "Do you want to be my best friend?" she asked. Duo looked confused but then thought for a bit. "Ok" he answered smiling. "Best friends forever" Usagi said smiling. She held out her pinky. He held out his and they pinky swore to be best friends forever. "Best friends" Duo said agreeing and smiling at the same time. They both laughed and stayed in the fort.
