Instant Love Messenger
By: Usagi Princess and Princess Ashley
Usagi put a pair of shorts and a halter -top over her new bikini. She continued to look in her mirror making sure she looked OK. What if she met some really hot boys? She giggled to herself. She couldn't wait! She tried to imagine a boy coming up to her and wrapping his arm around her. Usagi was in bliss. But she knew she had never felt real love. Love that was touching and pure. What was it really? Usagi felt one hint of realization deep down but then it disappeared. If it was a hint of it, who was it she liked? She shrugged to herself. She checked her watch and choked. She had to be at Rei's in five minutes to pick every one up.
She grabbed her beach bag and ran outside. She tried not to imagine what the group would do when she got there. She just had to be late on a day like this. She hopped in her convertible and jabbed the key in the slot. Starting the car, she backed out and sped down the road heading to Rei's. She turned her radio and left it at the one that had last been on. One of her favorite songs was on. Girl Talk by TLC. She gripped the steering wheel harder. Now she was nervous. She had one more minute. She stepped on the gas petal harder and sped faster down the road. She could just hope she wouldn't get caught.
Usagi's car skidded to a stop in front of Rei's Temple making a loud screeching noise. She smiled innocently at the four teens that looked at her with all eyebrows raised. Rei shook her head but then got in the back seat.
"You're actually on time," she hinted pretending to look at her watch.
"Did you speed?" she asked.
"Cool your jets Rei. We're here to have fun not to fight" Usagi answered knowing Rei wouldn't answer back. She snorted when she saw Rei sit in the back silently.
Minako took a seat next to her and looked at the radio dial.
"I'm turning it up!" she announced.
"Fine with me!" Makoto yelled from the back of the car.
Minako turned the radio almost all the way up and smiled at Usagi. They nodded and the car took off. Hey Ma by Camron boomed on the stereo as they drove. Usagi tried to concentrate on the rode as her and Minako bounced in the front of the car. Makoto did too but sometimes Rei would hold her down. Rei said she was getting a head -ache but then after a few more seconds she added in. Ami looked around sheepishly not wanting to add in. Minako looked at her with an expecting face. Ami blushed. She didn't want to dance up and down like they were.
Different songs played on the radio as they continued to the beach. They didn't care how they looked. People stared at them as they drove by. Usagi didn't mind. She liked being the center of attention.
She stopped at a red light. They were all laughing when Minako did a face plant on the dashboard at Usagi's sudden stop. "That's not funny!" She tackled Makoto in the backseat before Usagi could calm her down. She giggled and then she heard a shout from the car one over from her.

Heero drove his black convertible down the road, refusing to turn the radio on, despite Duo's constant whines.
"C'mon, Hee-man!!! Please?" Duo whined again.
"No." Heero said for the um-teenth time.
"Pretty Please?"
"No."
"PLEASE!!!! If you turn on the radio, I swear I'll never Wufei Wu-man again."
Heero looked at Duo for a minute. "How does that work to my advantage?"
Duo thought for a minute. "Umm. don't know. I just thought.. Well, okay. I don't know what I was thinking but I really, really want the radio on!"
Wufei leaned up towards Heero's seat in the front. "Do it Yuy, it'll do me some good."
"I don't want the radio on. It's my car any ways." He replied, and concentrated on the road when he had to stop at the red light.
Wufei sat back in his seat, pouting a bit. (A.N: Princess A& UP: droooollll...^_^) Then they heard some pounding music coming from a car that just screeched to a stop right beside them. Duo grinned when he saw five girls in a cyan blue convertible. (Princess A: Couldn't help myself. Hehee.)
"See Heero? They have their music on full blast. Now why can you be more like those chicks?" He looked at Heero.
Quatre giggled a bit, Trowa rolled his eyes, but Wufei and Heero both looked at him with a look that clearly said 'are you crazy?'
Duo laughed nervously, ignoring Heero's glare, and turned to the girls in the car. He couldn't see them very well, the sun was in his eyes and he was stupid enough to forget his sunglasses in the beach bag in the trunk. He called to them.
"Hey ladies!!!" (Usagi P: The usual ne?)
***
Usagi and the rest of the girls turned to see a braided guy waving frantically at them from the next car over. They all grinned when they saw the embarrassed looks of the other men in the car. Minako snickered.
"Do you think I can crowd in there with you? These guys are too boring. They won't let me turn on the radio! I need help!" He cried, clearly being tortured with the other boy's silence.
"We would but we don't have any room!" Minako smiled and waved at the cute braided boy.
"Aww, shucks." Duo sat back in his chair, prior to the moment ago when he was practically leaning outside the car talking to the cute girls in the other car.
The light turned green and they took off, Usagi was going faster than the other car, and soon they lost them.
Minako giggled. "He sure was cute. Fancy that, we already met five cute guys and we aren't even at the beach yet."
Usagi smiled when she saw the sign to the beach.
Usagi parked the car and smiled at Minako. Now was the chance too look for some guys. She didn't see any yet but she knew she would once they got on the shore. Usagi stepped out and smiled. Her strap -up high heels clicked on the hot black pavement as she walked to the trunk of her car. She grabbed some of the umbrellas and towels. She grabbed the boom box and walked with Minako down to the shore. They reached the top of the stairs. Usagi looked down searching for guys. She saw plenty hanging on the beach with their friends. Gangs were all in a spot and there were plenty of guys to spare.
Usagi and Minako's eyes glowed with excitement. Ami just shook her head and looked down at the ground. Makoto looked around and blushed. She looked at one guy. He looked so familiar. Rei looked around and couldn't help being excited too.
"That guy over there looks like my old boyfriend" Makoto stated softly.
"What ever" Rei mumbled rolling her eyes.
Rei looked back up and realized her and Ami were the only ones on the steps.
"Hey wait!" Rei called after the three that were already on the soft warm sand.
Usagi looked around and smiled. This was the perfect day for the beach. The sun shone brightly giving them a chance for a nice tan. The waves were calm and there was a very slight breeze. She spotted a opening in the sand where they would have a chance to be admired by others. Usagi motioned for the others to follow and they walked to the spot she had found.
Usagi took off her shoes and put the in the bag. She took off her shorts and folded them neatly into the bag and did the same for her halter -top. Usagi looked down at her bikini and smiled. She took out her chair and unfolded it setting down on the sand. She dug the umbrella in the ground and placed her boom box next to her chair. Now was her chance. She laid down on her chair and listened to the radio. She was in a model pose that would have struck a lot of guys. Usagi looked next to her and saw the rest of the group doing the same except for Ami. At a time like this Ami just had to be reading a biology book. Usagi rolled her eyes and then closed them. Now she just had to wait for the stares.

Duo took his shades down and looked at his buddies. He loved going to the beach. There were so many chicks to see. He frowned and looked at his friends. None of them were very fun. Quatre was too shy sometimes and Trowa and Heero were just too quiet. And Wufei.(A.N: Princess A& U P: *snickers. * well he didn't want to go there. Duo had seen plenty of girls but none of them had been his type. He looked around not expecting anything new but he did see something new. Five new chicks had arrived. These were different from all the others. They had a different look to them. They didn't look stuck up or spoiled.
The first one had long blonde hair put up into two buns on top of her head. It was a very peculiar hair-do. She had beautiful long legs that glistened in the sun. She was slender and she seemed to be enjoying her self in a bikini. He looked at the next and stopped dead. This one was the same except her long blonde hair was down and she had a different bikini on. He could've sworn he was drooling by now. The next girl was different. She had raven black hair the same length as the last girl. Her skin was a darker tone and she had on a red and purple bikini. The next girl had longer legs and was taller. Her skin was fair and she was just as slender. Her green and pink bikini gave her a different appeal. Her brown hair was put into a high ponytail on her head that was slightly blown in the breeze. The next girl was very unusual. She was almost as short as the first one. Her hair was very short and was blue.(A.N: Princess A: She did not 'dye' her hair, Usagi Princess. She was born that way! U P:I'm Sorry! Sheesh! My bad! She could have though ^_^) She was reading a biology book not like the others who were concentrating on getting a tan.
Duo couldn't take it anymore. He looked at his buddies and saw they were all snoozing off. He knew they wouldn't mind a few ladies visiting them though. He snickered and got up. He wasn't afraid of getting put down just in case. He had been put down a lot on all the girls he had tried to hit on. His feet shuffled through the hot sand and reached the five girls.
He stopped in front of the second one with the red bow in her hair. He smiled and waved his hand to get her attention. She looked up and smiled. Their plan had been a success. Usagi looked up too. Soon Makoto and Rei followed.
"Hey!" Duo said sheepishly. Although he had done this a lot where he had used to live he still could never find the right words.
"You girls look new. I have been to the beach millions of times and have never seen you" he lied. Even though he lied he smiled, his words had been successful!
"We haven't been to this side of the beach that many times" Usagi confessed. She smiled at Minako. He surely was interested, but in who?
"I was wondering if you all would like to come hang out with my group" he said smiling.
Usagi smiled smugly. He had a group and that meant more guys.
"We'd love to" Minako said in a voice Usagi never heard. Rei glared at them but they didn't care.
"We're just over there," Duo stated pointing to four other men.
"You can come hang out with us whenever you want" he said smoothly. He then turned and walked back to his group.
Usagi examined them and realized the one that had just come up was much different than the others. The one who had just come up had long chestnut brown hair that was put in a braid. All though he looked like a nice guy. The one next to him looked very gentle. He had platinum blonde hair that was combed neatly. He looked very shy but very wise, just like Ami was, in fact. He had a thoughtful look on his face. The one next to him looked very different. He looked the tallest of them all and the quietest. He was muscular and he had brown gravity defying bangs. The next one was unique, to say the least. He defiantly wasn't from around here. He was muscular and hot. He was Chinese and his hair was shoulder length pulled into a painful looking ponytail. He looked pretty grumpy and didn't seem to like the braided one, on the count of he seemed to be in a fight with him over something the braided man called him. The last one was totally different, but she could tell he was from Japan; he had the tanned look that everyone from Japan had. Japan was, of course, known as the Land of the Rising Sun. That was why everyone in Japan was more tanned than other races. This one made her stare for what seemed hours. He seemed the most muscular of them all. He looked quiet and deadly. His dark brown hair blew in the wind and his Prussian eyes cut into her soul. She knew he was something different. Though he looked like he didn't want to be bothered. He looked so emotionless. Not exactly her type, but even she had to admit, he was cute.
"Come on guys" she said getting up and smiling. She adjusted her bikini and made sure her hair was straight. They nodded and slowly got up. Usagi was a little shy but didn't mind. She loved meeting new people. Her feet dug into the scorching sand. She wished she had brought her sandals. She had wanted to bring her new high heels to show off though. She tried to look her best as she walked over to the group of boys.
Duo got up and greeted them with a mischievous smile. Minako smirked at him. There was funny to her eye. Usagi smiled.
"Hello" she said smiling.
His group nodded. "Hi." The blond one got up his hand and smiled. "Hello, My name is Quatre Raberba Winner" he said shaking her hand lightly. She smiled and shook back. This group was totally different.
"Sorry if the rest of the group lost their voice" Duo teased looking at the three other.
"That's Trowa Barton," he said pointing to the tall and silent one. Trowa nodded in reply.
"That is Chang Wufei, or as I call him Wu-man." Duo said trying not to laugh.
Wufei's fists tightened and he shook in anger. He made a mental note to kill Maxwell after words.
"The last one is Heero Yuy" Duo announced pointing to the emotionless one.
Usagi stood still for a second. Had he said Heero? She remembered her online buddy she had never seen before. Though she knew he lived somewhere else. There were plenty other Heeros any ways. This couldn't be the one she knew. She shook her head and came back to the present.
"My name is Duo," the braided one finally said.
Usagi nodded. Now it was their turn to introduce themselves.
"I'm Makoto" Makoto said half -blushing looking at the tall one.
"I'm Aino Minako" Minako said winking at Duo. She loved the look on his face when she did that. It made her giggle.
"My name is Ami Mizuno" Ami said sheepishly. She blushed and looked down at her tiny toes.
"I'm Rei" Rei said bravely. She didn't care how she looked or not. She looked at the Chinese boy but then turned away. He was too stuck up for her.
"I'm Usagi Tsukino" Usagi announced last. She wanted to see if Heero got a reaction, just in case he really was the one she had met online. He didn't even seem to have heard. Usagi scowled and then looked back at Duo.
"So where do you chicks go to school?" Duo asked raising his eyebrows. He pleaded in his head that it was the same as theirs.
"Juuban High" Usagi answered.
Duo nodded. He had forgotten the school they were going to. He looked sheepishly at the others. Wufei nodded. Duo knew what that meant.
"Wow same here" Duo answered smiling.
"I thought u said u had been to this beach a lot?" Usagi stated.
Duo blushed and sweat dropped. 'Caught in the act' he thought.
"You must be new then," Minako added in.
Quatre nodded. "We all just moved from China," he answered.
Heero gave Quatre and Duo a death glare daring them to state any more information. They had already given enough. Though he didn't feel like being so tough at the moment. Had that girl said her name was Usagi? He had tried not to reveal himself and hadn't flinched. Although he had to think about what she had said. She couldn't be the Usagi he knew. Most people he met online were very ugly. (A.N: Princess A: I'm gonna get you for that one, U Princess. -_-) This Usagi was too pretty to be the one he knew. 'Baka' he growled to himself. Now he was showing emotions. He took a second to glance at Usagi and realized how hard it was to glare back at his laptop. This girl was very different. He couldn't place what it was exactly about her but he knew something was definitely strange. Not just her, but all of them. He made a mental note to figure more about them.
Duo waited for someone in his group to say something. He always had to be the one didn't he. He knew their vacation time was almost up though. They had to get situated into their new apartments. He looked at his watch and his eyes bugged out. They needed to get back now.
"It was nice meeting you ladies but we need to go." Duo stated.
"Do you think we could get your email and instant messaging names in exchange for ours?" Minako asked
Duo nodded. "Sure" he answered smiling.
He went back to Quatre and got a pencil and paper. They watched as he scribbled the names down. Ami had gone back to do the same for them. At the same time both came back.
"Here" Usagi said handing him the piece of paper.
"Likewise," he said handing Usagi the names.
Usagi kept it in her palm and didn't bother to read it. She had a strange feeling about this. She waved her hand and smiled.
"We'll see you guys at school" she said.
Duo nodded and the girls headed back.
The girls waited until they left so they could talk. Minako was glowing with excitement. Usagi stayed calm. She had forgotten to flirt practically. There was something different about the boys they had just met. They weren't normal. She had seen only a little bit of their lives. She had gotten a flash when she looked at every one of them. Had the crystal done that? When she had looked at Heero though she had gotten something totally different from the others. She could tell he hadn't had a great life, though, none of them had. Had any of the other girls gotten a vision? Maybe Rei? She had seen blood war and... She couldn't quite place what else she had seen. It had been too difficult. Had his life really been that bad? Maybe she could help him in a way.
"Yooohooo! Earth to Usagi" Minako yelled waving her hand in front of her face.
"I just asked you something. Care to answer?" she asked smiling and sitting back down in her chair.
"Do you think they were hot?" she asked.
Usagi looked away. She blushed and tried to hide it. 'yes' she answered in her head.
"I hope they ask us out" Minako said in her dreamy stance looking up in the sky.
"I don't think they're like that Minako" Usagi said quietly.
"What do you mean?" the four other girls asked her.
Usagi looked down. The vision had been so terrible. Something she couldn't explain. All of them had locked up emotions inside. She wished she hadn't said that aloud.
"They have been through so many things you guys don't know about" she whispered.
"What?" they all asked confused.
"I had a vision, OK? Please just leave it alone. " Usagi said standing up. What was wrong with her? She had never acted like this? Was this a new emotion from the crystal? What was this feeling she had? Was it sadness, regret, mournful? She stared down appalled at herself.
Minako stood up and put a hand on her shoulder.
"I don't know what happened but just remember, you can always trust us" Minako told her in a calm voice. The three others nodded. Usagi partially smiled and nodded.
"Can we go?" she asked softly.
"Sure" Makoto answered getting up. They all nodded and started to get their things together. They didn't know what had happened but it wasn't good. Was this a sign of some type? Usagi packed up her things and so did the others. She walked back to the car and opened it. She didn't know what to say. She hadn't meant to be weird to her friends but she wasn't in the mood to talk at the second. Usagi hopped in the car and started it up. The rest got in and she backed the car up. The rest of the ride home was very quiet.
When Usagi got home she collapsed in the chair in front of her computer. Maybe now she could talk to them privately on line. She needed to find out about them. As soon as her computer was started up her aim came up. No one was on at the moment of what she knew. She sighed and got out of aim. She shut down her computer and went to lie down on her bed. Why had she had that vision? Usagi got out the boys screen names and started to read them.

He looked pretty grumpy and didn't seem to like the braided one, on the count of he seemed to be in a fight with him over something the braided man called him. The last one was totally different, but she could tell he was from Japan; he had the tanned look that everyone from Japan had. Japan was, of course, known as the Land of the Rising Sun. That was why everyone in Japan was more tanned than other races. This one made her stare for what seemed hours. He seemed the most muscular of them all. He looked quiet and deadly. His dark brown hair blew in the wind and his Prussian eyes cut into her soul. She knew he was something different. Though he looked like he didn't want to be bothered. He looked so emotionless. Not exactly her type, but even she had to admit, he was cute.
"Come on guys" she said getting up and smiling. She adjusted her bikini and made sure her hair was straight. They nodded and slowly got up. Usagi was a little shy but didn't mind. She loved meeting new people. Her feet dug into the scorching sand. She wished she had brought her sandals. She had wanted to bring her new high heels to show off though. She tried to look her best as she walked over to the group of boys.
Duo got up and greeted them with a mischievous smile. Minako smirked at him. There was funny to her eye. Usagi smiled.
"Hello" she said smiling.
His group nodded. "Hi." The blond one got up his hand and smiled. "Hello, My name is Quatre Raberba Winner" he said shaking her hand lightly. She smiled and shook back. This group was totally different.
"Sorry if the rest of the group lost their voice" Duo teased looking at the three other.
"That's Trowa Barton," he said pointing to the tall and silent one. Trowa nodded in reply.
"That is Chang Wufei, or as I call him Wu-man." Duo said trying not to laugh.
Wufei's fists tightened and he shook in anger. He made a mental note to kill Maxwell after words.
"The last one is Heero Yuy" Duo announced pointing to the emotionless one.
Usagi stood still for a second. Had he said Heero? She remembered her online buddy she had never seen before. Though she knew he lived somewhere else. There were plenty other Heeros any ways. This couldn't be the one she knew. She shook her head and came back to the present.
"My name is Duo," the braided one finally said.
Usagi nodded. Now it was their turn to introduce themselves.
"I'm Makoto" Makoto said half -blushing looking at the tall one.
"I'm Aino Minako" Minako said winking at Duo. She loved the look on his face when she did that. It made her giggle.
"My name is Ami Mizuno" Ami said sheepishly. She blushed and looked down at her tiny toes.
"I'm Rei" Rei said bravely. She didn't care how she looked or not. She looked at the Chinese boy but then turned away. He was too stuck up for her.
"I'm Usagi Tsukino" Usagi announced last. She wanted to see if Heero got a reaction, just in case he really was the one she had met online. He didn't even seem to have heard. Usagi scowled and then looked back at Duo.
"So where do you chicks go to school?" Duo asked raising his eyebrows. He pleaded in his head that it was the same as theirs.
"Juuban High" Usagi answered.
Duo nodded. He had forgotten the school they were going to. He looked sheepishly at the others. Wufei nodded. Duo knew what that meant.
"Wow same here" Duo answered smiling.
"I thought u said u had been to this beach a lot?" Usagi stated.
Duo blushed and sweat dropped. 'Caught in the act' he thought.
"You must be new then," Minako added in.
Quatre nodded. "We all just moved from China," he answered.
Heero gave Quatre and Duo a death glare daring them to state any more information. They had already given enough. Though he didn't feel like being so tough at the moment. Had that girl said her name was Usagi? He had tried not to reveal himself and hadn't flinched. Although he had to think about what she had said. She couldn't be the Usagi he knew. Most people he met online were very ugly. (A.N: Princess A: I'm gonna get you for that one, U Princess. -_-) This Usagi was too pretty to be the one he knew. 'Baka' he growled to himself. Now he was showing emotions. He took a second to glance at Usagi and realized how hard it was to glare back at his laptop. This girl was very different. He couldn't place what it was exactly about her but he knew something was definitely strange. Not just her, but all of them. He made a mental note to figure more about them.
Duo waited for someone in his group to say something. He always had to be the one didn't he. He knew their vacation time was almost up though. They had to get situated into their new apartments. He looked at his watch and his eyes bugged out. They needed to get back now.
"It was nice meeting you ladies but we need to go." Duo stated.
"Do you think we could get your email and instant messaging names in exchange for ours?" Minako asked
Duo nodded. "Sure" he answered smiling.
He went back to Quatre and got a pencil and paper. They watched as he scribbled the names down. Ami had gone back to do the same for them. At the same time both came back.
"Here" Usagi said handing him the piece of paper.
"Likewise," he said handing Usagi the names.
Usagi kept it in her palm and didn't bother to read it. She had a strange feeling about this. She waved her hand and smiled.
"We'll see you guys at school" she said.
Duo nodded and the girls headed back.
The girls waited until they left so they could talk. Minako was glowing with excitement. Usagi stayed calm. She had forgotten to flirt practically. There was something different about the boys they had just met. They weren't normal. She had seen only a little bit of their lives. She had gotten a flash when she looked at every one of them. Had the crystal done that? When she had looked at Heero though she had gotten something totally different from the others. She could tell he hadn't had a great life, though, none of them had. Had any of the other girls gotten a vision? Maybe Rei? She had seen blood war and... She couldn't quite place what else she had seen. It had been too difficult. Had his life really been that bad? Maybe she could help him in a way.
"Yooohooo! Earth to Usagi" Minako yelled waving her hand in front of her face.
"I just asked you something. Care to answer?" she asked smiling and sitting back down in her chair.
"Do you think they were hot?" she asked.
Usagi looked away. She blushed and tried to hide it. 'yes' she answered in her head.
"I hope they ask us out" Minako said in her dreamy stance looking up in the sky.
"I don't think they're like that Minako" Usagi said quietly.
"What do you mean?" the four other girls asked her.
Usagi looked down. The vision had been so terrible. Something she couldn't explain. All of them had locked up emotions inside. She wished she hadn't said that aloud.
"They have been through so many things you guys don't know about" she whispered.
"What?" they all asked confused.
"I had a vision, OK? Please just leave it alone. " Usagi said standing up. What was wrong with her? She had never acted like this? Was this a new emotion from the crystal? What was this feeling she had? Was it sadness, regret, mournful? She stared down appalled at herself.
Minako stood up and put a hand on her shoulder.
"I don't know what happened but just remember, you can always trust us" Minako told her in a calm voice. The three others nodded. Usagi partially smiled and nodded.
"Can we go?" she asked softly.
"Sure" Makoto answered getting up. They all nodded and started to get their things together. They didn't know what had happened but it wasn't good. Was this a sign of some type? Usagi packed up her things and so did the others. She walked back to the car and opened it. She didn't know what to say. She hadn't meant to be weird to her friends but she wasn't in the mood to talk at the second. Usagi hopped in the car and started it up. The rest got in and she backed the car up. The rest of the ride home was very quiet.
When Usagi got home she collapsed in the chair in front of her computer. Maybe now she could talk to them privately on line. She needed to find out about them. As soon as her computer was started up her aim came up. No one was on at the moment of what she knew. She sighed and got out of aim. She shut down her computer and went to lie down on her bed. Why had she had that vision? Usagi got out the boys screen names and started to read them.
