Childhood Playmates
The night ended, to Usagi's disappointment, in the front of her small cottage. Mamoru felt guilty for not sharing with her the need he had pent up, but he decided it was better this way. They did indeed enjoy the Tiramisu and did take that trip in the limo, but only they headed for her house, not his dreamy and sexual city condo.
He took her hand kindly and kissed it softly. Emotions began to seep through her heart and her head as Usagi slightly blushed. "Thank you for the dinner, Mamoru. I enjoyed it very much." Although her tone was relaxed and gentle, he still noticed the sigh that was slipped in between his name and the word 'I'. He nodded simply and when she turned to open her door, he only brought her closer. Now, there was only the barrier of an inches' breath as he stared into her eyes. "Usagi, the only reason I didn't take you to my condo was because I wanted to keep things simple between us, at least for now. I have a wedding to plan and you're supposed to help, and I know it would be inappropriate to walk into a room and stare at you with lust when we're both supposed to be choosing flowers for the arrangement. Now I know you're a lovely girl, and -" he was cut off by her smile and her interruption. She didn't want to hear his excuses. "I understand Mamoru. I'll see you tomorrow morning in your office with the catalogs for your tuxedo. Enjoy the rest of your evening." He understood her sadness and felt the primal urge to hold her close and tell her that it would be alright, but once again, he understood that she was sad.and that he was engaged. He brought his lips to a friendly position on her forehead and smiled as he gave way to her movement of pushing him away. "Goodnight Usagi. Sweet dreams." With that, he turned his body around and stepped towards his limo for a slow and dull ride back to his home.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The next few days went by pleasantly. Usagi helped out immensely with the wedding plans, although she secretly was around just to spend time with Mamoru. He flashed her smiles and grins and even danced with her while he chose the wedding song for him and Minako. And while the beautiful bride-to- be was off in some exotic island, working out business proposals with older men, and making other types of proposals with younger men, Usagi still felt guilty for her seductive needs. She wanted to be around Mamoru. She enjoyed his company and loved the way he made her feel when he complimented her. But worse, she wanted him, and that could obviously cause a major problem in the future. Sure she adored every little thing he did and she was very, very determined to be with him, but she didn't want to be considered the little tramp of the neighborhood.
He began to study her, watching her every move as she paced his office, deciding whether the wedding should be decorated in red, teal, or pink. "Red would be good, because roses are always the symbol of love and they go well crimson. Teal would definently be the third choice, although the color would bring out the beautiful color in Minako's eyes," Mamoru stated. "Pink's a nice color, but just too damn kiddy. Ugh.this is so hard to decide on my own. I'm glad you're here to help me, Usagi." He gave her another smile to add to her collection. She returned the gesture. "I'm glad to be here too."
Moments seemed to fly by as they continued to gaze into each other's eyes. Blue met blue, then suddenly; red met red as lips crushed together. Eyes were closed; passions were sweeping through their blood. Visions were imagined. Hearts seemed to be bursting. All Mamoru could think about was where in the Hell that damn office desk was. He wanted to just throw those papers across the room and thrust Usagi in their old spot. He wanted to fill her with his love and lust. He wanted to fill her with him.
The moment had come, and Usagi knew it. The words were almost flying out of her system as she sneaked open her mouth and let loose her feelings. "I love you, Mamoru."
His eyes went wide. Shock flowed throughout his body like a bullet. He felt the words seep into his heart. He was surprised, then happy, then confused. Should he take this time to confess? Was this the opportunity he was supposed to be granted? Should this even be happening?
He nodded in his head and realized that it was now or never. "I love you too, Usagi." And from them on, they were unseparable for the whole day.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Ah!" Mamoru woke to an unpleasant start as Minako began searching him in bed. What just happened? How did she end up in bed with him? And more importantly.why was he naked? He looked down inside the covers to see that his clothes were indeed missing in action. Where was Usagi? They never even ended up in bed, but how in the Hell did he? Minako smiled at him as she pressed her body lovingly against his. "Good morning sleepyhead." He stared down at her while she placed her head upon his naked chest. Finally, he spoke up. "Um, love, why am I in bed naked?" Her grin faded as she sat up on her elbows. "Well, dear, you seemed to have fallen asleep in your office chair, so I sent Tessa to bring you up to your chambers. Then, I joined you." She began to giggle madly, not even noticing the disgusted frown Mamoru was giving her. He suddenly sat up, ready to stand up for what he believed in. "Get off me. Now!" She shot up like a bullet and gazed at him in confusion. "What? Why? We're engaged. I'm entitled to be able to lay with you in bed. What's the big deal?" He didn't even want to look at her. "I just want you off of me. I don't want you in bed with me, especially when I'm naked. And no, you don't have the right to be in bed with me, not without my permission. I may be your fiancé, but I certainly do not want to look like your sex toy right before the wedding. Goodness Minako!" He stood up, covering his lower body with a bed sheet. His mood suddenly took a turn as he spotted tears flowing. He lifted her up off his bed and handed her the clothes she was recently wearing the night before. "Here. Go to your condo, take a shower, get dressed, and then meet me back here for lunch. I want to discuss with you our wedding." She simply nodded and crept through his bedroom door, and after she closed it, Mamoru fell back onto his bed and wondered what the Hell he just did.
Shuffling files and stacking papers wasn't exactly Usagi's favorite thing to do on a nice spring afternoon, but she volunteered to help her father with the office while he went off and spent an enjoyable amount of time in Florida, playing golf with a few of his old chums from college. As much as she wanted to spend her own time in Florida, she knew that her father needed to relieve some stress from work, and both of them knew that golf was the best thing to calm his nerves.
She felt guilty, but all she could think about was Mamoru. Of course she was in love with him, she admitted that to herself for almost a decade. But now, with his wedding to plan and she, now made the official planner, wasn't sure what to do anymore.
A knock sounded upon the hard wood door and she greeted them with her typical message when she was working up to her knees in filing, "The door's open!" In fluttered Minako, happy as can be and proud to be considered the next woman in the Chiba family. Perhaps it wouldn't be long for her to become pregnant with a child and have another thing to be proud of. She had always wanted the rich life. A rich husband with a rich home and even rich children. Her fiance was as sexy as could be and she knew that he had bundles of money. She only wished that he would someday give her bundles of children. And that was something Usagi wanted for herself as well.
"So, Ms. Tsukino, I came up here hoping to have a few words with you on the arrangements of the wedding. And also, I wish to speak with you afterwards about my Mamoru." Her eyes flickered in anger. 'She seemed dangerous,' Usagi thought, 'but she definently won't bring me down over him.'
"Alright then, Ms. Aino. What is it that you wish to speak with me about? The wedding, I mean." Minako stared down at her, only because she remained whopping five inches taller than Usagi in her high-heels. There was something in her glare. Something in those cold blue eyes that made Usagi feel that something was just not right.
"Well, Ms. Tsukino, I still haven't been sent my dress and it's what, ten days until the wedding ceremony? A bride cannot go naked down the aisle. I expect my elegant pearl gown with satin pink roses to be delivered to my office the minute it arrives, and hopefully that should be by the end of the week. I cannot postpone this wedding any longer. Mamoru's and mine love is bursting and we're absolutely ready to release it as soon as possible, which brings me to my next point. I have heard rumors spread about some tramp messing around with my Mamoru and the last time I checked, I was no tramp." 'Damn Robert,' Usagi thought, thinking about the sneaky and conniving little man who worked for her father and had worked even harder for her attention. Minako continued, "So, I was thinking, maybe it's that lovely Ms. Tsukino was seen flirting with my fiance, just harmfully flirting. Then I realized the moment Mamoru had practically thrown me out of his bed that you two were an item.a very dangerous item and in my way of becoming the wife of a very sexy and very rich Mamoru Chiba." By now, she was barely an inch away from Usagi, her eyes the color of menacing anger and it chilled Usagi's heart to think of what could happen to her.
Minako continued to stare at her with such hatred, Usagi was sure that she would be walking out of her father's office with a black eye or something of the sort. Then, she heard Minako whisper a few faint threats. "If I ever see you hanging around my Mamoru ever again, I swear I'll -" Suddenly, a cough was sounded and both women turned to the door.
Mamoru stood in the doorway; eyes alert and ready to take action. He had seen the whole ordeal and to his displeasure, knew that something had to be done about Minako. He stepped forward and was thrust back by the hug his fiance had embraced him with. He knew her tactics. She was only playing the part, acting as though Usagi had hurt her and for the woman to be punished severely. "Oh Mamoru, she tried to hurt me. She came after me and told me that she was secretly in love with you and that she was absolutely determined to get you. She threatened to beat the Hell out of me, that's what she said. Oh Mamoru, if you weren't here to save me." He was disgusted, flat out disgusted. He pushed her off of him. He was sick of her. She was sneaky, snobby, high strung, and bitchy, and he didn't appreciate it. "Oh cut it out Minako. I'm sick and tired of you trying to weave your way into my arms after a bout of lying and expect a bout of sex. Don't you dare talk to me again and I hope you understand that I'm telling you to stay the Hell away from me. The wedding's off." He looked down at the now trembling Usagi. "Let's go Usagi." He approached her, took her rather roughly by the arm, and pulled her out of her father's office, leaving Minako stunned and terrified at her dreams being shot down. The last vision Usagi saw of Minako was tears streaming from her face and she knelt down to the soft-carpeted floors of her father's office and for once, she actually felt sorry for the woman.
