wait? To the story!
Usagi took her mail inside the dorm and sat down. It had been another normal day. She had work, Homework and college. There wasn't much more to her life. It had always been sad and boring. She sighed and sat down on her bed fishing through her mail. Of course there was one from her parents and her friends. Then her fingers fumbled against a letter she had been hoping to see for a couple of weeks. Her publisher had said it would be a surprise. Her book had sold very well for weeks. She couldn't believe her results! She had been happy and wanted shout to the world but now was the moment she had been waiting for. Her fingers fumbled with the letter flap as she opened it.
Dear Ms. Tsukino,
We are now happy to announce that your book is now an award winning book.
Usagi kept reading the rest of the information. She couldn't believe it! She wanted to call everyone and tell it to them. Her hand tightly gripped the letter as it shook. She thought this was all a dream. She pinched herself to make sure she was still sane. Her eyes widened. She didn't know what to say. Her dream had finally been accomplished! A relief and happiness was put through her heart but easily shattered by her next thought. Should she call Duo? He had given her his number but she had never called him. She glanced at the phone in the corner of the room. It lay there unused. She hadn't talked to him in so long. She longed to hear his voice, to see his brown hair and to feel his love. Her fear had started to disappear over the years because she had wanted to see him so much. If she were to see him she wondered what her new reaction would be. Yes, she still had some fear left in her, but why? She wished it were never there. She hated it every time it broke her and his heart. Usagi sighed and decided to finally call him after she called her friends.
Duo hung up the phone with Quatre and collapsed. The concert was finally set. It had been a short notice but the concert was January 28. It was going to be cold. He wondered what to tell the girls. What would Usagi say? Would she come? If she did she would immediately get the front row seat and a backstage pass to see him whenever she wanted. Duo looked out through the window and was lost in the gray sky. He wondered if she actually was that desperate to see him. He longed for her so much. He thought he was already going insane. If she came to his concert 2 more months. How long could he hold? Couldn't he see her at least once? Duo closed his eyes and tried to imagine being with her again. It made him want to be with her even more. If he couldn't see her at the concert he would have to go see her on his own. He bit his lip and tried to think of something else. He knew he would have to call her soon. He couldn't wait to hear her voice again.
Usagi slowly dialed the numbers on the card. How would he sound? What would he say? A bubble formed in her throat. Yes she had fear still in her but very little. She longed for him and couldn't stand it, but would he feel the same way? She listened as the phone rang hoping she could get a word out. Suddenly the phone stopped ringing and the voice answered.
"Hey! Duo speaking!" he answered as cheerfully as he could.
Usagi smiled glad he was happy but then remembered she would have to say something.
"Hey" was all she could get out, it came soft almost as quiet as a whisper.
"Usagi?" Duo asked in surprise. It couldn't be her. She hadn't talked to him in a year. It was a miracle!
"Hey, Duo" Usagi stated calmly.
"Oh my gosh. I haven't heard your voice in so long" he said. He wished he could see her now, her beautiful smile, long blond hair and her love. It made him long for her so much.
"So why are you calling now of all times, miss me?" he asked with tease but hopefulness in his voice.
"Well, yes I did miss you but I also wanted to tell you something important" she answered smiling. His question had answered hers. He had missed her. She closed her eyes thinking of him. She had been much more afraid when she had left since now.
"Sorta same here" Duo said laughing trying to get her to cheer up.
"Go ahead" Usagi said waiting for what he had to say.
"No you go" he answered smiling.
Usagi took a big breath ready to spill it all out, she just hoped it didn't sound bad. She had fear still welled up inside of her that tried to hold her back but she said it anyway.
"Um, I won an award for my book and I was wondering if you wanted to come to the award ceremonies" She said all together.
Duo almost dropped the phone. She had won an award. After all the years of hard work she finally got what she deserved. Happiness for her entered his hear as he thought about it. He wished he could have been there when she had gotten the letter. He was so far and had missed everything. He wanted to by her side when she was lonely which he could tell she was. He had not forgotten that day when he had heard her voice in the wind. Finally he added his words to say.
"Wow, I don't know what to say, that's awesome!" He exclaimed.
Usagi blushed on her side of the phone taking a glance of a copy of her award-winning book. She then had curiosity creep up on her. Now it was her turn to ask.
"So what did you want to tell me?" she asked hoping for something nice.
"The bands first concert is coming up and I saved you front row tickets for you and your friends, and backstage passes" he added smiling.
"I was wondering if you wanted to come." He asked pausing waiting for her answer.
Usagi bit her lip. She wanted to see him and here was her chance. She longed for him and couldn't stand living without him and here was the time. She almost jumped for a yes but fear came back up. She hated it. Her heart dropped and she thought a bit. What would happen if she did go see him? She didn't want to disappoint her best friend. She wanted to say boyfriend but she wasn't sure on that yet. Her fear started to grow larger but her heart seemed to answer first.
"I'd love to" she answered, the words flowing out of her mouth automatically.
Duo smiled and marked the date on his calendar. He only had three weeks till he saw her again, he didn't know if he could wait. It had been so long and now he would see her. What would she say about the songs? It was too late now, he wanted to help her. He wished he could have loved her from the start but there had been so much. He knew there was a small thread like barrier between them, One tiny move and it would be shattered but that move was the biggest of all.
"So when is your award ceremonies?" he asked getting ready to mark his calendar again.
"You tell me first" she teased wanting to know when his concert was.
Duo took a big breath and answered her straightly.
"January 28th" he answered smiling.
"When is your award ceremony?" he asked.
Usagi paused. Had he just said January 28th? He had to be kidding. That was the day of her ceremony. That couldn't be right, if it was she didn't know what she would do. She had to see him, no matter what and she wanted to be there for his first concert. She didn't know what to say. Her heart wailed in sobs and she almost dropped the phone. Why did this always happen? There was always a problem. 'No' Usagi thought.
"Usagi? Are you there?" Duo asked confused for the silence and no answer.
"Yeah" Usagi answered snapping back to her world and out of her thoughts.
"What was the date again?" she asked knowing the answer but not believing herself.
Duo's eyebrows furrowed but he answered again wondering what was going on.
"January 28th" he answered.
"Oh" Usagi answered her heart breaking into more sobs.
"What's wrong?" Duo asked wondering why she was acting this way.
Usagi gulped down everything she was thinking and answered him softly.
"My ceremony is on the same day." She answered softly holding down the tears.
Duo paused for a second. Had she just said what he thought she had? This couldn't be right! Why was it always going the wrong way. Now he could tell why Usagi had paused. He could see an outlined of her sad face in his head. He could still sense a little bit of her fear but he could also sense that she needed him.
"I can miss my ceremony, I'm fine" she said trying to think of something on how to get out of this situation.
"No. You can't miss out on your dream, I won't let you" he answered back quickly.
He didn't want her to give up everything that was important to her up for him. He knew she had worked on this for years and how much it had meant to her. Now was the only chance for her.
"But, Duo" Usagi choked out.
"Please, Usa, for me" he answered softly.
Usagi nodded on the phone and closed her eyes trying to let it all out. It wouldn't, it swelled up like a bruise and got worse. She wasn't sure which road to take. Her book had meant a lot to her. Duo had also said to do it for him. She would do it for him. That was the only way. He was what she would think of.
Duo rubbed his forehead in disbelief. Why did it have to be this way? He had wanted to see her so bad and now that chance was shattered. Would he ever see her again? He grimaced at the thought and shook his head. He would do anything for her. He gritted his teeth and tried to keep himself calm.
"Gomen Duo" Usagi whispered choking on everything.
"Usa, It's not your fault it happened this way. We will see each other" he answered trying to calm her down. He could see her in his head and she was not happy. He could see she was about to cry and he didn't want her too, It made them both worse.
"Usa, please don't cry" he mumbled. He turned his head wishing he could be there right now to comfort her. He wasn't, he was five hours away. He wanted her to give in to her fears and love him completely but he knew that wouldn't happen unless he met her again. Unless something else happened, he believed that she could do it.
"I will find a way to see you again, don't worry" he soothed quietly.
Usagi tried her best to do what he said but it was almost impossible. She knew this would be the end of the phone call. She didn't want to hang up, just to hear his voice was bliss. Suddenly her fear reacted and she closed the call.
"I'll see you sometime" she said softly.
"You too, bye" Duo answered.
Usagi slowly hung up and collapsed on her bed. She rested her head on her big pillow and stared at the ceiling while thinking. Why had her fear come up? And why had this had to happen. Why couldn't things just work out? Why had it always been difficult for her? Why was always making the toughest decisions? She was the one under all of it. She had so many different roads and there was only one she could pick. Duo had told her to follow her dream for him but something told her to do not what he said.
A tear silently fell down her cheek. Life always went wrong for her. She had always been the one in all the pain. Though she thought about Duo and how she had broken his heart. It was still broken. She wished she could mend it back together but her fear held her back.
"Fear......." she whispered.
More tears fell down her face as she thought. Why had there been fear. Her fear was always the problem. If she hadn't had the fear where would she be now? Couldn't she just get rid of it? There had to be a way. There had to be some way to get rid of her fear and make the right decision. She closed her eyes and tried to think but then a real thought came up. What if getting rid of her fear was not by thinking but by doing and listening to her heart and not her mind? Had her heart been right all along? With that last thought she fell asleep.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*Dream*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Usagi woke up in a black tunnel and she had no clue what was going around. The blackness covered around her and she was alone. She didn't like the thought of this. Wasn't there any body? Just then a figure walked into the tunnel. It was Duo.
Her walked slowly up to her but he was not happy. He was heartbroken. She smiled and ran right up to him. When she was about to hug him something hit here and threw her to the ground and then forced a barrier between her and Duo. 'No' she thought. A voice cackled in the distance. 'Stop' Usagi thought. She looked up at Duo who was standing only feet away. The voice laughed again and a shiver was sent down her spine. She wanted to hug to him and talk to him but the barrier was disabling her. She tried to get up but a new electric force sent her down. This time there was pain that she couldn't stand. She cried out in agony. The power kept coming down on her.
What did this dream mean? 'Please stop!' she begged. She closed her eyes and tried not to scream again. White power sent into her heart and it felt like it was splitting her body in half. She felt like everything was tearing apart and she couldn't control it. 'Please help' she begged. She was about to give up and faint but suddenly everything stopped. The power was right above her head and had stopped coming. The tunnel had stopped spinning and everything was frozen, even sound. Suddenly spoke up.
"What is wrong?" a voice asked. The voice seemed so familiar to Usagi. She felt like she had heard it before. She strained to remember who was really speaking to her. It wouldn't come to her.
"Who are you?" Usagi asked slowly.
"I thought you would have known, I have been trying to persuade you in real life but now I'm trying in your dream" the voice answered.
It only took seconds to know who it was. It was the voice that had tried to persuade her about Duo. So why was it talking to her now? Why was this happening in the dream?
"Why can't I get to Duo? Are you doing this?" Usagi demanded wanting answers on why she was so confused.
"That power and shield between you is your fear. I came to help because you asked" the voice answered simply.
Usagi pondered on this for a second. So her fear was the power. Like she had thought her fear always got in the way. Why did this have to happen! Usagi wanted to get rid of it.
"I can't get rid of it" Usagi said softly looking down at her feet.
"Yes you can" the voice answered.
"But how?" Usagi questioned.
"You must forget what happened in the past that was bad. Just remember the good. If you look into your heart you will find that you will not have your fear. You have just been looking into your mind. That is where the fear is. You must gain courage by looking into your heart and knowing what is right." The voice answered.
Usagi was stunned. So now she was given the answer. She had been looking in the wrong place. She just had to look into her heart. Usagi took another glance at the frozen Duo. He had a new expression on his face. He had a slight smile but she could tell he was still was heartbroken. She closed her eyes and relaxed herself slowly. She looked into her heart and saw everything. She saw her love and knew there was only one possible road. She was not stuck in the middle.
She smiled slowly. She moved her arm slowly to the power above her that was frozen. When she touched it, it faded away until all she was touching was air. Suddenly the tunnel started to disappear and turn into a new scene. She was in a garden with colorful flowers of all types. She could smell the fresh smell of them and she relaxed even more. The sun brightly shone in her face. It made her golden hair glitter. Slowly she stood up cautiously. The power and shield weren't there. She looked at Duo and saw his frozen eyes staring at her.
Suddenly everything went back to normal. The time was not frozen anymore. She saw Duo stare into her eyes. She smiled at him and noticed him smiling back. She felt warm and loved right now. There was no stress. She could hear birds chirping in trees near by but that was all. There was a very slight breeze and it pushed her hair back. Slowly Duo held his hand out to her. She smiled at him and slowly extended hers. Her hand met his and gripped it tightly. Just as their hands had touched a bright light had erupted from their hands. This one was a soft and peaceful power. Usagi's long slender fingers felt safe in his. He messaged her hand as the light started to get bigger. The light enveloped their arms and then half of their bodies. And then finally the power surrounded everything. It was all white.
Hey! Sorry I haven't written in ages! I went on vacation and then I had a lot of after school activities and stuff so that really held me back. There is only one or two chapters left. YAY!!! I hope you really liked this chapter! Please give me lots of REVIEWS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! NE who I'm going to start the next chap! Ja ne!

This one was a soft and peaceful power. Usagi's long slender fingers felt safe in his. He messaged her hand as the light started to get bigger. The light enveloped their arms and then half of their bodies. And then finally the power surrounded everything. It was all white.
