*TWO MEMORIES IN ONE*
(Chapter 7: Only A Matter Of Time(
Usagi slowly stirred through one of her strange and depressing dreams. She slowly opened her heavy eyelids and quickly adjusted her sight becoming aware of where she was. A depressing and cold feeling chilled the air and her heart gave a heavy feeling inside of her. It had only been yesterday when she had gotten out of being in bed and been able to slowly get around Wufei's apartment. Even though that had been a big accomplishment for her, she had immediately been put down.
'Why me?' she thought. Was there something particular about her that made her different to get this heavy burden that any other person could have gotten? She bit her lip and closed her eyes trying to relax and stop her head from spinning a million miles an hour. Even though some questions were filtered out she still had some that kept hitting her. One that had occurred only seconds ago was: 'Who is the voice I keep hearing?'. Wondering if that voice would reply since it had already a couple times to some of her questions. Her head was left blank and no one answered, leaving her in an uneasy quiet feeling.
Slowly she sat up forgetting the nerve-racking pain that shot through her on her back. Leaning against the cushioned headboard she took a big sigh taking in the right amount of air so she could get other thoughts flowing through her dizzy head. Maybe today she could get outside of the apartment? She liked the idea but what if Wufei objected to it? She wondered how he was doing as she thought to herself. She shook her head to herself lightly. It wasn't as if she cared for him or anything.
'You sure?' the voice asked cutting in her deep thoughts. Usagi's eyes widened. She looked around quickly even though she knew the voice was not with her. Was the voice still there?
'Wait!' Usagi thought back quickly hoping to get an answer. She frowned when she was left in the silence of the apartment without any answer. She ran her hands through her hair frustrated. 'Who are you?' she thought once again.
((((((((((((((((( Setsuna slowly looked into her time ball and sighed sadly. Her tall and thin rod was gripped in her palm never failing to slip. She had on her sailor fuku with her planet colors, as depressing as they seemed. Slowly her time ball fogged out and she turned around and stared straight at the earth. Her eyes fell upon Japan where her lost princess was living.
"I'm sorry hime. Telling you would destroy everything" she whispered, the words softly rolling off her tongue. She looked at the marble planet across from her and sighed. Only she had come back with a memory and yet she could do nothing about it but to guide Usagi slowly through her remembrance journey. She wished she could go there at the moment and give her back the memory and everything could go back to normal. It couldn't be that way. If she did time's course would be changed and there would be no more moon princess.
She tried to locate the other scouts who also lived in other parts of the world. Seven lights faintly glowed under the fluffy clouds.
Everyone had gotten a pretty normal life except her princess. She wondered why destiny had chosen this but only one answer could be given. 'him' she thought. She just hoped he could recover her memories. Even though he didn't know it he had the other half and only in the right timing would it be revealed.
"Only a matter of time" she whispered, her voice drifting off in the moon's gust of winds. ((((((((((((((((((
Usagi slowly slid out of bed, tired of sitting. Her legs trembled slightly but she held her ground, determined to get out. She carefully and slowly opened the door so not to make any noise that would wake Wufei up. Opening the door quietly was of no need anymore. Wufei was already up and warming up some water so he could make some tea and was cooking some eggs and pancakes.
Usagi walked up to the counter and sat down in one of the tall seats waiting as quiet as a mouse, wondering if Wufei would notice her. He turned around hearing the small noise behind him and stared at Usagi for a second but then turned back. He felt uneasy staring at her directly like he had just done. Though he inside felt a pleasurable feeling when he stared into her blue ocean eyes.
"You're getting the hang of walking around" he stated monotonely.
(AN: is that a word? Hehe ^_^ o well!)
Usagi didn't reply but blushed slightly at the comment. The pink glow didn't want to seem to go away.
"Maybe we could get outside today?" she suggested hopefully.
Wufei paused slightly and stopped frying his eggs letting them sizzle on the pan above the stove. He was still uneasy about her health but maybe it would get her in a better mood. Maybe it would help her. Though another thought came inside of his head. What if her father found them? She was in no shape to fight her father. Maybe if they disguised her? Wufei tried to think up several ways to disguise her but only one worked, in fact it worked well. What if they cut her hair?
"We would have to cut your hair" he stated, turning the stove on low heat.
Usagi was shocked and confused at his statement. Cut her hair? Her hair was the one thing she wanted to keep. It was as if it would reveal something to her so she had always kept it the same.
"Why"? she asked quavering slightly.
"You would be recognized easily by your father. The only way you can go out is as if you cut your hair to a shorter length so he will not recognize you" he answered smartly.
Usagi sighed. What would she rather do? Cut her hair or get out of being imprisoned? She slowly ran over the choices but then suddenly something flashed in her head. She got a vision of her hair growing longer in only a matter of seconds. Maybe it meant a good thing?
"Fine" she sighed out.
Wufei nodded his head and finished the eggs. Grabbing two plates he poured the scrambled eggs on top and then added pancakes he had only finished cooking seconds ago. He turned the stove off and then placed the two plates on the counter. He handed Usagi a fork and then walked around and sat on the stool next to her.
Usagi took the first bite of food she had had in a while and felt the taste satisfy her and slide down her throat. She then took another bite and another.
"This is good" she commented.
Wufei tried not to blush. He had learned to cook after his parents had died. He felt almost girlish but knew it was a basic way of surviving.
"You will need new clothes too" he stated remembering she was still in his clothes. Usagi blushed and paused from her eating. After she felt the warm heat leave her cheeks she started to eat again.
She then felt an urge in her body to turn and look at Wufei briefly. He was sitting close to her as if to make sure she wasn't hurt. She almost felt a heat coming through him that warmed her up. She closed her eyes thinking of the warmth. It was familiar to her faintly. She almost seemed to enjoy it. She opened her eyes surprised at herself. What was happening to her? She blushed slightly and looked away. Why did she get these feelings?
Wufei looked down at his plate realizing she had been staring at him. Why had she kept doing that? Although he had to admit to himself that he had stared at her equally as much. There was so much unsaid between them. He glanced at her for a second looking at her face. The beauty of her face was like a painting that couldn't be true. Her soft delicate skin looked so gentle. Her eyes added so much emotion and color. They seemed so irresistible. He then realized her rosy cheeks and stared away. Why was she blushing? Wufei shook his head slapping himself mentally. 'What is wrong with me?' he thought to himself.
Wufei finished his breakfast and got up to put it in the sink. He then put it in the dishwasher and turned around to face her. She looked at him expecting him to say something.
"Um," he mumbled.
"We'll go to the mall after you finish and cut your hair" he cleared up.
She nodded and stood up and also put her dish in the dishwasher. She then looked at Wufei about to ask him a question but he knew right away.
"The scissors are on the third drawer down" he said pointing to a couple of drawers in the corner of the kitchen. Usagi nodded and walked toward the third drawer. She pulled it out looking at its few contents. She spotted a pair of regular scissors and she examined the blade carefully. She then closed the drawer and walked to the bathroom.
She looked at her self in the mirror with her meatball hair. This was probably going to be one of the last times she was going to see herself like this. She slowly took out her hair and let it fall past her knees. She looked at her long glittering hair that seemed flawless with no tangles. She ran her hands through her hair and took a deep sigh. She didn't want to do this but if she ever wanted to see the sun again this is what she would have to do.
Wufei walked by the bathroom just to see how she was doing on cutting her hair. He then stared at her hair. He had never seen it this way. It had always been up in the same balls on top of her head. The golden blonde hair shimmered in the light and seemed to dazzle his eyes. Something seemed so strange about her hair. It seemed to give off a magical presence and shone more than it was supposed to. He saw her having a hard time and he broke in.
"You'll look the same. Don't worry" he said in monotone.
Usagi shocked turned to look at him and blushed. What was he trying to say to her? She nodded. He was right. She could do this. 'Just get it over with' she thought.
"Thank you" she mumbled shyly
Wufei gave a swift nod and headed to his room and shut the door.
Usagi took one last glance at her long blonde hair and then took her first slice of the scissors. The remaining hair fell to the floor and shocked Usagi till she could barely see straight. Her hair sparkled in a white light that almost blinded her. She then watched as it slowly disappear into thin air. She watched as She cut another large piece of her hair and it was given the same reaction. Once she had cut all around her hair reached mid- back and it ran straight without tangles.
She laid the scissors down on the counter and closed her eyes. She felt something different in the room now. She felt a warm and peaceful presence. Whatever power it was it gave her loving feeling. She smiled and took a big breath. She was ready for the world now.
Usagi seemed to float gracefully out of the bathroom. A smile dawned on her face and she walked into the kitchen to put the scissors away. She then saw Wufei sitting on the one of the stools in front of the counter. He turned and stared at her. He did have to admit, he was going to miss the long hair but she still had the soft and joyful face. It wasn't as peaceful as most girls would be but it was peaceful for her through al she had been through. Wufei shook his thoughts quickly and noticed she needed something to wear to the mall, but what?
He was currently aware that the new short style was boxers, so she could wear one of his plain black pair. She could keep on his over large shirt that he had put on her after the incident. Wufei then walked past Usagi and into his room to get his black boxers.
When he came out with the new pair, Usagi immediately understood and her cheeks once again turned a slight pink tone. She took the pair of boxers with her into the bathroom and quickly changed. The boxers she had been wearing since the incident had been striped blue and black and would not be suitable for the outside world. Usagi glanced at herself in the mirror and felt almost glum and depressed. She didn't like this life. So many wounds had been placed upon her and almost seemed unbearable. The life she had been through was so different from everyone else's. She had been beaten and the scars inside had never left from her depressed heart. She looked at her eyes and they still had that sad touch inside of them. She had never been that much of her cheery self. She sighed and walked out of the bathroom.
When she walked outside of the bathroom she grabbed her shoes and slipped them on trying to avoid Wufei so he would not see her mournful face. When she regained her calm she looked him straight in the eye and waited for his signal to leave. She then was given a flash of thought. He seemed so mature for his age and yet he seemed scared of something. It was as if he was scared of being weak? Usagi slightly shook her head and stared down at the white and soft carpet.
"Let's go" Wufei announced softly. He grabbed two helmets and handed the ice blue one to Usagi. Usagi slipped the helmet over her head and walked behind him out of the apartment.
'Finally' Usagi thought. Finally she was free of entrapment. She felt a sense of freedom, but only a hint. Freedom wasn't one where you had to be under disguise but she still enjoyed getting out of bed. She almost unconsciously followed Wufei down to his motorcycle as she was left in the middle of a million thoughts.
Wufei sat down on his motorcycle and started the engine. Usagi's thoughts were ripped away when she heard the loud roaring noise of the bike. Usagi sat down behind him and clutched the sides of him for a good grip. This wasn't what she had exactly wanted but she kept her thoughts to herself. The only reason she was being nice was because he had saved her but any other reason and she would have never gotten on his motorcycle. Beneath his shirt she could feel his well - formed stomach muscles. She just hoped he would not react to her holding on to him like this. Inside though she felt something she couldn't explain. Maybe she would find out some day.
Wufei backed up and sped his motorcycle out of the parking lot and drove out of the apartment area. The only thing that seemed to disturb him though was that Usagi was holding him around the waist. He didn't exactly know the feeling but he could also say he was a little confused and angry at himself for thinking any foolish thoughts. Her hands were cold but small and gentle. He felt as if she wasn't holding on at all though his skin told him she was.
Wufei sped down the highway, going over the speed limit. He didn't care if he did such a thing. He had never been caught since he had gotten his motorcycle. He looked back at Usagi who seemed to be enjoying the ride. He knew she had never really had much of a good time at all in her life and at the moment he couldn't tell whether she was sad or just calm with everything.
Usagi watched as everything sped by her so fast. She enjoyed the feeling of the open wind in her face and pushing her now short hair back. She didn't seem to care on how fast they were going. She felt as if she was flying in open air with the wind blowing straight into her. She loved any type of breeze or fast feeling. It seemed almost familiar to her, as if she had flown a million times before and had forgotten how to fly. She then remembered that day when she had tried to commit suicide and wings had sprouted from her back but once she had been guided home they had immediately disappeared. Usagi watched out her helmet as Wufei turned on the exit and led them toward the mall. She had only been there a few times. She hadn't had time with her schedule and her father. Once she had escaped out and her father had given her a huge bruise on her right cheek. She had never tried that again. Just thinking of it made her feel sad all over again. She thought of all the times her father had abused her. A small tear escaped the corner of her eye and then another flew behind her. The tears she shed flew behind her and fell to the pavement they had already passed. Usagi shook her head and let her face dry in the wind. She didn't want Wufei to see she had cried.
Usagi entered the mall with Wufei right on her tracks. She wished she could have gone shopping more often. Her love for the mall was no mistake. She looked at all the stores and then chose one out. Wufei gave a big sigh and his head lowered. 'This is going to be the longest day of my life' he thought quietly to himself. He watched as Usagi entered a store called 'Delias'.
"I'll wait out here until your ready to buy" he called to her.
She gave a nod and she went to the first rack of clothes she spotted. She usually liked Delias so she went there often. They had a new selection since the last time she had come. Her eyes darted from different colors of the sweaters on the rack. She didn't like the light brown or green so she ignored the color. Her eyes fell upon a baby blue, sparkly flare- sleeve sweater. Her eyes always caught anything sparkly. She looked for the small and grabbed it walking through the store.
She continued throughout the store until she had most of what she needed. She had grabbed a couple pairs of pants, jeans, tops, shoes, sweaters, coats and swimsuits. This was the one reason she loved this store. She could obviously get anything from it. Turning to see Wufei sitting on a bench outside the store she motioned her hand for him to come and buy the things she needed. He grumbled slightly and gave to the front counter, handing the lady his credit card.
Usagi browsed the mall for things that she might need for a bit like things such as hair scrunchies and hair shampoo etc. She got at least a bottle of lotion and some make up. She felt a little uneasy about getting all of this but Wufei told her the things she would need so she bought anything she needed. She just hoped his bill wouldn't be too bad. She carried her bags but found a hard difficulty and had to give at least one or two to Wufei. He just rolled his eyes and took them.
Usagi walked down looking for her last store. She had been at the very end of the mall and had to hike across the rest of the mall to find the last stop. She wasn't sure how Wufei would take this last store and she tried to imagine his anger. It almost made her laugh but she kept her giggles to herself. She cut her thoughts to then stop right in front of Victoria's Secret.
(AN: I will try to describe Wufei as much as I can. LOL!)
"Onna! I'm not going in that store!" he retorted crossing his arms with bags dangling from them. His face had an almost embarrassed look. The other part of it had a face with 'I should have known'. A big sweat drop formed at the end of his head and his fists clenched. He could not stand such humiliation.
"Of course you have to! This is my last store! It's the course of the world Wufei! Get used to it" she replied as if he were being a big snob.
"You can wait like usual, but I will only be a few minutes" Usagi said smiling innocently. She didn't feel like smiling but she felt like testing his anger at the moment.
"Onna!"
"Otoko" she yelled back mimicking him.
Wufei stood their amused. She didn't seem to care. No one had really fought against him before. He watched as she entered to buy her 'specific needs' as if nothing had happened. He rolled his eyes and sat on the bench outside the store and waited for her to finish.
"Wufei!" Usagi called with everything in her arms.
Wufei slowly got up and trudged towards the line ignoring the stares the women were giving him. Even the males looked at him with crazy looks. For the first time in his life he felt his face become beat red with blush. The lady worker looked at him strangely for a few seconds but then took the credit card he handed her. When everything was paid for he sighed and walked as fast as he could out of the store.
"I'm never doing that again onna" he growled his fists as tight as metal.
Usagi just followed him with a devilish smile on her face. She enjoyed making fun of him. She deep down thought he looked kawaii when he was embarrassed or mad but she kept everything to herself as she followed Wufei out of the store.
Hey! How's everyone! Sorry for the wait again. I have a lot a sports goin on that block up my schedule. Ok a little hint of advice (snow-boarding hurts) ^_^. I can barely sit. Ok so it was my first time but I did pretty good! Ne who I gtg go to school so ja! Hope you liked it! ^_^ * Usagi Princess *
*TWO MEMORIES IN ONE*
(Chapter 7: Only A Matter Of Time(
Usagi slowly stirred through one of her strange and depressing dreams. She slowly opened her heavy eyelids and quickly adjusted her sight becoming aware of where she was. A depressing and cold feeling chilled the air and her heart gave a heavy feeling inside of her. It had only been yesterday when she had gotten out of being in bed and been able to slowly get around Wufei's apartment. Even though that had been a big accomplishment for her, she had immediately been put down.
'Why me?' she thought. Was there something particular about her that made her different to get this heavy burden that any other person could have gotten? She bit her lip and closed her eyes trying to relax and stop her head from spinning a million miles an hour. Even though some questions were filtered out she still had some that kept hitting her. One that had occurred only seconds ago was: 'Who is the voice I keep hearing?'. Wondering if that voice would reply since it had already a couple times to some of her questions. Her head was left blank and no one answered, leaving her in an uneasy quiet feeling.
Slowly she sat up forgetting the nerve-racking pain that shot through her on her back. Leaning against the cushioned headboard she took a big sigh taking in the right amount of air so she could get other thoughts flowing through her dizzy head. Maybe today she could get outside of the apartment? She liked the idea but what if Wufei objected to it? She wondered how he was doing as she thought to herself. She shook her head to herself lightly. It wasn't as if she cared for him or anything.
'You sure?' the voice asked cutting in her deep thoughts. Usagi's eyes widened. She looked around quickly even though she knew the voice was not with her. Was the voice still there?
'Wait!' Usagi thought back quickly hoping to get an answer. She frowned when she was left in the silence of the apartment without any answer. She ran her hands through her hair frustrated. 'Who are you?' she thought once again.
((((((((((((((((( Setsuna slowly looked into her time ball and sighed sadly. Her tall and thin rod was gripped in her palm never failing to slip. She had on her sailor fuku with her planet colors, as depressing as they seemed. Slowly her time ball fogged out and she turned around and stared straight at the earth. Her eyes fell upon Japan where her lost princess was living.
"I'm sorry hime. Telling you would destroy everything" she whispered, the words softly rolling off her tongue. She looked at the marble planet across from her and sighed. Only she had come back with a memory and yet she could do nothing about it but to guide Usagi slowly through her remembrance journey. She wished she could go there at the moment and give her back the memory and everything could go back to normal. It couldn't be that way. If she did time's course would be changed and there would be no more moon princess.
She tried to locate the other scouts who also lived in other parts of the world. Seven lights faintly glowed under the fluffy clouds.
Everyone had gotten a pretty normal life except her princess. She wondered why destiny had chosen this but only one answer could be given. 'him' she thought. She just hoped he could recover her memories. Even though he didn't know it he had the other half and only in the right timing would it be revealed.
"Only a matter of time" she whispered, her voice drifting off in the moon's gust of winds. ((((((((((((((((((
Usagi slowly slid out of bed, tired of sitting. Her legs trembled slightly but she held her ground, determined to get out. She carefully and slowly opened the door so not to make any noise that would wake Wufei up. Opening the door quietly was of no need anymore. Wufei was already up and warming up some water so he could make some tea and was cooking some eggs and pancakes.
Usagi walked up to the counter and sat down in one of the tall seats waiting as quiet as a mouse, wondering if Wufei would notice her. He turned around hearing the small noise behind him and stared at Usagi for a second but then turned back. He felt uneasy staring at her directly like he had just done. Though he inside felt a pleasurable feeling when he stared into her blue ocean eyes.
"You're getting the hang of walking around" he stated monotonely.
(AN: is that a word? Hehe ^_^ o well!)
Usagi didn't reply but blushed slightly at the comment. The pink glow didn't want to seem to go away.
"Maybe we could get outside today?" she suggested hopefully.
Wufei paused slightly and stopped frying his eggs letting them sizzle on the pan above the stove. He was still uneasy about her health but maybe it would get her in a better mood. Maybe it would help her. Though another thought came inside of his head. What if her father found them? She was in no shape to fight her father. Maybe if they disguised her? Wufei tried to think up several ways to disguise her but only one worked, in fact it worked well. What if they cut her hair?
"We would have to cut your hair" he stated, turning the stove on low heat.
Usagi was shocked and confused at his statement. Cut her hair? Her hair was the one thing she wanted to keep. It was as if it would reveal something to her so she had always kept it the same.
"Why"? she asked quavering slightly.
"You would be recognized easily by your father. The only way you can go out is as if you cut your hair to a shorter length so he will not recognize you" he answered smartly.
Usagi sighed. What would she rather do? Cut her hair or get out of being imprisoned? She slowly ran over the choices but then suddenly something flashed in her head. She got a vision of her hair growing longer in only a matter of seconds. Maybe it meant a good thing?
"Fine" she sighed out.
Wufei nodded his head and finished the eggs. Grabbing two plates he poured the scrambled eggs on top and then added pancakes he had only finished cooking seconds ago. He turned the stove off and then placed the two plates on the counter. He handed Usagi a fork and then walked around and sat on the stool next to her.
Usagi took the first bite of food she had had in a while and felt the taste satisfy her and slide down her throat. She then took another bite and another.
"This is good" she commented.
Wufei tried not to blush. He had learned to cook after his parents had died. He felt almost girlish but knew it was a basic way of surviving.
"You will need new clothes too" he stated remembering she was still in his clothes. Usagi blushed and paused from her eating. After she felt the warm heat leave her cheeks she started to eat again.
She then felt an urge in her body to turn and look at Wufei briefly. He was sitting close to her as if to make sure she wasn't hurt. She almost felt a heat coming through him that warmed her up. She closed her eyes thinking of the warmth. It was familiar to her faintly. She almost seemed to enjoy it. She opened her eyes surprised at herself. What was happening to her? She blushed slightly and looked away. Why did she get these feelings?
Wufei looked down at his plate realizing she had been staring at him. Why had she kept doing that? Although he had to admit to himself that he had stared at her equally as much. There was so much unsaid between them. He glanced at her for a second looking at her face. The beauty of her face was like a painting that couldn't be true. Her soft delicate skin looked so gentle. Her eyes added so much emotion and color. They seemed so irresistible. He then realized her rosy cheeks and stared away. Why was she blushing? Wufei shook his head slapping himself mentally. 'What is wrong with me?' he thought to himself.
Wufei finished his breakfast and got up to put it in the sink. He then put it in the dishwasher and turned around to face her. She looked at him expecting him to say something.
"Um," he mumbled.
"We'll go to the mall after you finish and cut your hair" he cleared up.
She nodded and stood up and also put her dish in the dishwasher. She then looked at Wufei about to ask him a question but he knew right away.
"The scissors are on the third drawer down" he said pointing to a couple of drawers in the corner of the kitchen. Usagi nodded and walked toward the third drawer. She pulled it out looking at its few contents. She spotted a pair of regular scissors and she examined the blade carefully. She then closed the drawer and walked to the bathroom.
She looked at her self in the mirror with her meatball hair. This was probably going to be one of the last times she was going to see herself like this. She slowly took out her hair and let it fall past her knees. She looked at her long glittering hair that seemed flawless with no tangles. She ran her hands through her hair and took a deep sigh. She didn't want to do this but if she ever wanted to see the sun again this is what she would have to do.
Wufei walked by the bathroom just to see how she was doing on cutting her hair. He then stared at her hair. He had never seen it this way. It had always been up in the same balls on top of her head. The golden blonde hair shimmered in the light and seemed to dazzle his eyes. Something seemed so strange about her hair. It seemed to give off a magical presence and shone more than it was supposed to. He saw her having a hard time and he broke in.
"You'll look the same. Don't worry" he said in monotone.
Usagi shocked turned to look at him and blushed. What was he trying to say to her? She nodded. He was right. She could do this. 'Just get it over with' she thought.
"Thank you" she mumbled shyly
Wufei gave a swift nod and headed to his room and shut the door.
Usagi took one last glance at her long blonde hair and then took her first slice of the scissors. The remaining hair fell to the floor and shocked Usagi till she could barely see straight. Her hair sparkled in a white light that almost blinded her. She then watched as it slowly disappear into thin air. She watched as She cut another large piece of her hair and it was given the same reaction. Once she had cut all around her hair reached mid- back and it ran straight without tangles.
She laid the scissors down on the counter and closed her eyes. She felt something different in the room now. She felt a warm and peaceful presence. Whatever power it was it gave her loving feeling. She smiled and took a big breath. She was ready for the world now.
Usagi seemed to float gracefully out of the bathroom. A smile dawned on her face and she walked into the kitchen to put the scissors away. She then saw Wufei sitting on the one of the stools in front of the counter. He turned and stared at her. He did have to admit, he was going to miss the long hair but she still had the soft and joyful face. It wasn't as peaceful as most girls would be but it was peaceful for her through al she had been through. Wufei shook his thoughts quickly and noticed she needed something to wear to the mall, but what?
He was currently aware that the new short style was boxers, so she could wear one of his plain black pair. She could keep on his over large shirt that he had put on her after the incident. Wufei then walked past Usagi and into his room to get his black boxers.
When he came out with the new pair, Usagi immediately understood and her cheeks once again turned a slight pink tone. She took the pair of boxers with her into the bathroom and quickly changed. The boxers she had been wearing since the incident had been striped blue and black and would not be suitable for the outside world. Usagi glanced at herself in the mirror and felt almost glum and depressed. She didn't like this life. So many wounds had been placed upon her and almost seemed unbearable. The life she had been through was so different from everyone else's. She had been beaten and the scars inside had never left from her depressed heart. She looked at her eyes and they still had that sad touch inside of them. She had never been that much of her cheery self. She sighed and walked out of the bathroom.
When she walked outside of the bathroom she grabbed her shoes and slipped them on trying to avoid Wufei so he would not see her mournful face. When she regained her calm she looked him straight in the eye and waited for his signal to leave. She then was given a flash of thought. He seemed so mature for his age and yet he seemed scared of something. It was as if he was scared of being weak? Usagi slightly shook her head and stared down at the white and soft carpet.
"Let's go" Wufei announced softly. He grabbed two helmets and handed the ice blue one to Usagi. Usagi slipped the helmet over her head and walked behind him out of the apartment.
'Finally' Usagi thought. Finally she was free of entrapment. She felt a sense of freedom, but only a hint. Freedom wasn't one where you had to be under disguise but she still enjoyed getting out of bed. She almost unconsciously followed Wufei down to his motorcycle as she was left in the middle of a million thoughts.
Wufei sat down on his motorcycle and started the engine. Usagi's thoughts were ripped away when she heard the loud roaring noise of the bike. Usagi sat down behind him and clutched the sides of him for a good grip. This wasn't what she had exactly wanted but she kept her thoughts to herself. The only reason she was being nice was because he had saved her but any other reason and she would have never gotten on his motorcycle. Beneath his shirt she could feel his well - formed stomach muscles. She just hoped he would not react to her holding on to him like this. Inside though she felt something she couldn't explain. Maybe she would find out some day.
Wufei backed up and sped his motorcycle out of the parking lot and drove out of the apartment area. The only thing that seemed to disturb him though was that Usagi was holding him around the waist. He didn't exactly know the feeling but he could also say he was a little confused and angry at himself for thinking any foolish thoughts. Her hands were cold but small and gentle. He felt as if she wasn't holding on at all though his skin told him she was.
Wufei sped down the highway, going over the speed limit. He didn't care if he did such a thing. He had never been caught since he had gotten his motorcycle. He looked back at Usagi who seemed to be enjoying the ride. He knew she had never really had much of a good time at all in her life and at the moment he couldn't tell whether she was sad or just calm with everything.
Usagi watched as everything sped by her so fast. She enjoyed the feeling of the open wind in her face and pushing her now short hair back. She didn't seem to care on how fast they were going. She felt as if she was flying in open air with the wind blowing straight into her. She loved any type of breeze or fast feeling. It seemed almost familiar to her, as if she had flown a million times before and had forgotten how to fly. She then remembered that day when she had tried to commit suicide and wings had sprouted from her back but once she had been guided home they had immediately disappeared. Usagi watched out her helmet as Wufei turned on the exit and led them toward the mall. She had only been there a few times. She hadn't had time with her schedule and her father. Once she had escaped out and her father had given her a huge bruise on her right cheek. She had never tried that again. Just thinking of it made her feel sad all over again. She thought of all the times her father had abused her. A small tear escaped the corner of her eye and then another flew behind her. The tears she shed flew behind her and fell to the pavement they had already passed. Usagi shook her head and let her face dry in the wind. She didn't want Wufei to see she had cried.
Usagi entered the mall with Wufei right on her tracks. She wished she could have gone shopping more often. Her love for the mall was no mistake. She looked at all the stores and then chose one out. Wufei gave a big sigh and his head lowered. 'This is going to be the longest day of my life' he thought quietly to himself. He watched as Usagi entered a store called 'Delias'.
"I'll wait out here until your ready to buy" he called to her.
She gave a nod and she went to the first rack of clothes she spotted. She usually liked Delias so she went there often. They had a new selection since the last time she had come. Her eyes darted from different colors of the sweaters on the rack. She didn't like the light brown or green so she ignored the color. Her eyes fell upon a baby blue, sparkly flare- sleeve sweater. Her eyes always caught anything sparkly. She looked for the small and grabbed it walking through the store.
She continued throughout the store until she had most of what she needed. She had grabbed a couple pairs of pants, jeans, tops, shoes, sweaters, coats and swimsuits. This was the one reason she loved this store. She could obviously get anything from it. Turning to see Wufei sitting on a bench outside the store she motioned her hand for him to come and buy the things she needed. He grumbled slightly and gave to the front counter, handing the lady his credit card.
Usagi browsed the mall for things that she might need for a bit like things such as hair scrunchies and hair shampoo etc. She got at least a bottle of lotion and some make up. She felt a little uneasy about getting all of this but Wufei told her the things she would need so she bought anything she needed. She just hoped his bill wouldn't be too bad. She carried her bags but found a hard difficulty and had to give at least one or two to Wufei. He just rolled his eyes and took them.
Usagi walked down looking for her last store. She had been at the very end of the mall and had to hike across the rest of the mall to find the last stop. She wasn't sure how Wufei would take this last store and she tried to imagine his anger. It almost made her laugh but she kept her giggles to herself. She cut her thoughts to then stop right in front of Victoria's Secret.
(AN: I will try to describe Wufei as much as I can. LOL!)
"Onna! I'm not going in that store!" he retorted crossing his arms with bags dangling from them. His face had an almost embarrassed look. The other part of it had a face with 'I should have known'. A big sweat drop formed at the end of his head and his fists clenched. He could not stand such humiliation.
"Of course you have to! This is my last store! It's the course of the world Wufei! Get used to it" she replied as if he were being a big snob.
"You can wait like usual, but I will only be a few minutes" Usagi said smiling innocently. She didn't feel like smiling but she felt like testing his anger at the moment.
"Onna!"
"Otoko" she yelled back mimicking him.
Wufei stood their amused. She didn't seem to care. No one had really fought against him before. He watched as she entered to buy her 'specific needs' as if nothing had happened. He rolled his eyes and sat on the bench outside the store and waited for her to finish.
"Wufei!" Usagi called with everything in her arms.
Wufei slowly got up and trudged towards the line ignoring the stares the women were giving him. Even the males looked at him with crazy looks. For the first time in his life he felt his face become beat red with blush. The lady worker looked at him strangely for a few seconds but then took the credit card he handed her. When everything was paid for he sighed and walked as fast as he could out of the store.
"I'm never doing that again onna" he growled his fists as tight as metal.
Usagi just followed him with a devilish smile on her face. She enjoyed making fun of him. She deep down thought he looked kawaii when he was embarrassed or mad but she kept everything to herself as she followed Wufei out of the store.
