Hey, how are you all. Me? I am not fine. It seems that my other two stories
are not well taken. Especially Facing A New Destiny. They have really few
reviews. It seems no one likes me anymore. I know you are all mad at me for
breaking Harry and Usagi up, but why cant you review?! Please review! Or
else there wont be a chapter 11! Everything happens for a reason. Let me
explain WHY I broke them up. I don't want their romance to be a "fairytale"
sort of love, where they love each other till death comes. I wanted to put
in reality. REALITY! They will get back together really soon. They will
learn how much they mean to each other, how much they need each other and
how much they love each other. Gees people, what's wrong with you? Like I
said, FAND is and always will be a Harry/Usagi fic. So people do
understand. of course, I am going to explain it better when the next
chapter of FAND is out. IF it will be out, unless you people start
reviewing my stories there wont be any next chapter at all.

Chapter 6
"Songs of love."
For the rest of the week Usagi avoided Harry at all costs. She didn't see him anywhere. She was still thinking about the brief yet sweet kiss they shared the other night. The night when he cried. She was constantly busy with the upcoming Halloween Ball that she wasn't able to see Harry at all.
'What did it mean?' she thought as she stared at her reflection in her full- length body mirror. It was the night of the Halloween ball they were all getting ready. She was in her small dressing room behind the big stage. The guys were also in their dressing room getting ready as well.
'It meant nothing, you were just caught up in the moment, that's all,' she assured herself. She took another glance at her reflection, smiling slightly how nice she looked. She wore a long and elegant black dress that reached the ground slightly. It had off shoulders sleeves, with silver trimmings. Showing her bare shoulders, a silver necklace adored around her neck with a pure white crystal dangling happily. The black dress fit her perfectly; it stayed perfect in every curve of her body. It had a long slit on the right side, up to her mid thigh. Around her small waist dangled a long silver cord as an accessory. She wore silver Moon dangling earrings. Her hair was free, it was slightly curled making a wavy effect. She smiled brightly at her reflection.
"How do I look?" she asked turning around to examine the back of the dress, which of course showed her open back.
"You look absolutely stunning, hime!" crowed the mirror happily.
Usagi frowned slightly after hearing the formality. "Don't call me that," she said waving a finger at the mirror.
"Of course, you look stunning as always. The man you like will notice for sure," crowed the mirror.
Usagi looked at the mirror stunned. Then she started to blush, "Oh no, no, no. I don't like him. I was just caught up in the moment that's all. The kiss was just something.something..something," she rambled trying to make up an excuse. She knew exactly whom the mirror was referring to. But how the mirror knew was questionable. Usagi still blushing sat down infront of the vanity and stared blankly at her reflection. Remembering what happened nights before.
"Nothing at all, nothing at all," she repeated. Looked at her reflection, when she remembered the kiss, a tingling sensation spread on her lips. She touched her lips feeling the same tingling sensation that lingered after the brief kiss. 'Is Harry thinking the same thing?' she wondered dreamily. She then blushed when she realized what she was dreaming about. Trying to stop thinking about it, she tried to focus and finish her make up. Which was very light, just a light brush here and a bit of lipstick. Sighing she put down the tube of lipstick and frowned slightly. 'I still cant keep my self from thinking about the kiss, it meant something,' she thought. Sighing she contemplated what is happening.
Suddenly there was a knock on the door. Usagi looked up, disturbing her from her thoughts. 'Harry?' she thought. She blushed again for thinking about Harry. 'I seem, to think about him a lot lately.' She mused, a slight smile plastered on her face. "Come in," she shouted standing up. She quickly put on a silver bracelet with moons and stars and bells jingling around her left wrist. She turned to the people at the door, she was very surprised to see who they were.
"Hey! What are you guys doing here?!" shouted Usagi, she was happy to see her friends, Hermione and Ron standing there. But she was quite nervous to see Harry standing with them looking as handsome as ever in his dark almost black, blue robe. A slight blush tinged her cheeks when she stared at him.
"You look amazing!" exclaimed Hermione. She wore a baby blue dress robe and her hair was done magically. Hermione looked quite improved. What Usagi surprised most was that she was holding hands with Ron.
Usagi smiled lightly, "Thanks, Hermione you look great! Gees I didn't recognize you there for a minute." She joked, she raised an eyebrow at Ron who started to blush furiously.
"We just came here to wish you good luck," said Ron grinning at Usagi.
Usagi nodded, she smiled slyly when she looked at Ron's and Hermione's clasped hands. "So you two finally stopped bickering and do something you both agree on?" she commented eyeing the two.
Hermione and Ron both started to blush furiously. Usagi giggled lightly. She knew both of them were meant to be with each other. It was very obvious that they liked each other a lot. "You know the saying, 'The more you hate the more you love,' or in your case the more you fight the more you love," said Usagi giggling when Hermione and Ron blushed redder.
"Well, good luck. Me and 'mione will get some seats." Said Ron. He quickly grabbed Hermione's hand and both of them darted out of the room leaving both Harry and Usagi alone. Harry didn't talk much to Usagi after the kiss so now he felt kinda awkward with Usagi.
Usagi looked desperately at the door where Ron and Hermione went out, wishing that they would came back in. She really didn't want to talk to Harry, but in her inside all she wanted to do was be with Harry forever. 'Stop it! this is not supposed to happen!' she mentally shouted. She bit her lip trying to think for something to say to Harry. 'He looks so handsome,' she thought staring at Harry for a few minutes. There was a long uncomfortable silence between the two.
Harry starred at Usagi for a long time. He couldn't make up anything to say. He was still thinking about the kiss they shared night before. He also wondered why he wasn't able to see Usagi for the rest of the week. 'Because you were avoiding her stupid!' he mentally shouted. 'or maybe was she avoiding me?' he added uncertain. He took in her beautiful appearance. She looked very attractive with her long black dress Harry noted. A slight blush tinged his cheeks, 'Damn hormones,' he cursed mentally. Sighing he tried to make a simple conversation with her and try to avoid her eyes at all costs. But as usual he failed miserably.
"You look great," Harry said finally breaking Usagi from her thoughts.
Usagi looked up startled, she stared into Harry's eyes for a while before blushing crimson. "Thank you," she mumbled shyly. She offered Harry a shy smile.
Harry smiled back slightly still blushing. He then remembered something that he wanted to give her. "Oh wait a second. I have something for you," he said smiling at Usagi. He put his hand in the pockets of his dark blue robe and very delicately pulled out a single long stemmed white rose. The rose was a magical rose that would change color occasionally depending on the emotions that were around it. There were no thorns on it since Harry personally took them of himself since he didn't want Usagi to get pricked by one. He gently held out the rose for Usagi.
"It's beautiful," breathed Usagi as she looked at the rose Harry help out for her. "You really shouldn't have," she said still looking at the rose before looking at Harry tenderly, a blush tinged her cheeks.
Harry just shrugged, "It's a gift. For good luck for later. Besides I really wanted to give you something." He said blushing slightly as he starred at Usagi. "It's a Emotion Rose, it changes color depending with the emotions of the owner or the emotions that are around it." he added smiling.
Usagi blushed, 'Pull yourself together!' she ordered. She nodded and reached out for the rose, taking it from Harry's hand. Something happened when their hands touched.
When Usagi reached out for the rose their hands brushed against each other and an electrifying current past through their bodies. Harry and Usagi both looked up simultaneously and starred into each others eyes confused and shocked all at once. It was almost like the same feeling when they made eye contact and they felt something 'click'. This time it felt deeper, warmer. Usagi then touched the rose, Harry was still holding it, both of them were holding the rose and before their very eyes the rose changed color. From a pure white color it changed into a pure red one.
Usagi starred at the red rose that she now held in her hands. She starred at it with shock, when both of them were holding the rose, it changed into a red one. She knew exactly what this color stands for. A blush tinged her cheeks with realization, for sure Harry knew exactly what it meant also. 'Love'.
Usagi looked up and starred at Harry's equally surprised eyes. There was a long moment of silence between the two. Both of them lost in their own little worlds. 'I cant be in love! I can't risk another loved one! Not after Mamo-chan! I cant.but.I cant stop falling in love.' she thought finally in defeat. She remembered her mothers' words. "Its time to move one" 'Time to move on.Time to fall in love?' she thought while still starring into Harry's emerald green eyes. 'I don't know.' she thought fixing her gaze back to the red rose. She offered Harry a shy smile.
Harry starred with astonishment at the now reed rose. He knew exactly what it meant. 'Love' his mind chided. When both of them were holding the rose it magically changed to a red one. 'But how? Could she actually love me? Or am I the one in love? Or are we BOTH in love.does she feel the way I feel?' he thought as he fixed his eyes at Usagi. He started to blush with realization.both of them were in love. He felt exactly the same way when they looked into each other's eyes and felt a certain attraction to her. He felt the same way when they kissed, a brief yet sweet and gentle kiss. Now this feeling was deeper much more deeper. He started to stare deep into Usagi's eyes when their eyes meet. He was surprised to shock, turmoil, sadness and . love. He returned Usagi's shy smile when she smiled at him. Seeming to find nothing else to say both of them stayed quiet for a long time searching for answers in each other's eyes and trying to make up something to say.
Usagi bit her and looked back down at the rose. "Thank you." she whispered slowly a blush crept on her cheeks.
Harry nodded, he was able to make out what she was saying. "You.you.should probably put it in a vase. It won't die.its magical." he answered. He felt awkward being with her right now, 'Because she knows how you feel.' His mind added. He really didn't know how to act right now.
Usagi nodded, she turned on her heels and walked over to the vanity where a crystal vase stood. She carefully placed the rose in the vase and starred at it for a while. 'Does that mean he loves me? He doesn't know me.not the real me.yet.I.do like him...this feeling is so new.so different than the way I felt with Mamo-chan.' She thought. Usagi turned back around to face Harry smiling slightly at him.
"Thank you for the rose, it was very kind of you." She said smiling slightly. She bit her lips uneasily, and tried to think up to say something else. 'C'mon, think of something to say. Don't act stupid!' she mentally pep-talked herself. She then saw Harry's hand, which had a few band-aids on them. She furrowed her brow in confusion and starred at his right hand.
"You're hurt?" she asked slowly walking towards him and taking his hand in hers and examining. Clearly there were some wounds on it, and some were covered with band-aids. She traced her hand across some small pricks. She really didn't realize how close they are again.
Harry was quite surprised to see Usagi hurrying towards him and taking his hand in hers and examining it. he could feel her soft hand trace along some of his wounds. He got them when he took off the thorns of the magical rose. He started to blush slightly when he noticed how close Usagi was to him.
"Its.nothing.I got those from taking off the thorns of your rose." He informed in a slight whisper. He was too mesmerized by the way Usagi was so close to him and as she traced his hand. He could smell her sweet perfume. It was quite intoxicating, he starred at her dreamily.
Usagi looked up when she heard why his hand was full of small wounds. 'You did it for me?' she questioned mentally. She starred into his emerald green eyes. A slight blush tinged her cheeks. "Thank you. That was very sweet of you," she whispered slowly.
Both of them continued to stare into each other's eyes. Very slowly they moved closer to each other. Not knowing what was going on between them, as if a small force was pulling them together. Slowly their faces moved in together for a kiss. Their lips were merely a few millimeters away from each other's. Both of them were yearning for the much-expected kiss. Slowly.closer.closer..
"USAGI!!!!"
Usagi and Harry's eyes immediately shot open when they heard a loud shout from the door. Usagi and Harry both gasped when they realized what they were about to do and immediately blushed crimson. Both of them were pulled away from each other when they noticed how close they were to each other.
"Am I disturbing something?" asked a very surprised Yaten, as he was the one who shouted. He was standing by the open door and looking between Usagi and Harry suspiciously. Obviously both of them were about to kiss.
It took time for Usagi to register what just happened. Yaten had seen Harry and herself almost kiss. 'We almost kissed.again.' she thought as she stared at Harry with mixed emotions. A huge blush stained her cheeks and turned to Yaten.
"No, not.not.nothing at all." she stuttered staring at a surprised Yaten.
Yaten just raised an eyebrow; he switched his gaze to a blushing Harry. 'Seiya won't like this at all.' he thought. He turned back towards Usagi, "I just came here to tell you that you're up in a few minutes. So whatever you two were planning to do, it better be quick." He said before turning on his heel and walking out closing the door behind him.
Usagi stared at the closed door with surprise. She then turned to a blushing Harry. 'Oh my, what were we about to do? What happened?' her mind raced with so many questions. Mixed emotions churned inside of her.
Harry stared at Usagi with mixed emotions. He still didn't know what he felt towards her and yet they were about to kiss and if wasn't for Yaten both of them would be kissing right now. His blush became redder when he remembered how close they were together before Yaten barged into them.
There was a moment a long and heavy silence between them. Neither of them knowing what to say. Both of them were lost in their own little thought. They exchanged unknown glances with each other trying to think up something to say to one another. It was Harry who broke the heavy silence.
"I guess I should get going now. You'll be up on stage any minute. You should join us at our table later." Said Harry slowly looking up at Usagi. He didn't meet her eyes in fear of what might happen. Slowly he made his way out of the door still feeling confused of them emotions within him.
Usagi bit her lip, not knowing what to say. she watched Harry sadly walk out of her fitting room and close the wooden door behind him. Usagi heaved a heavy sigh as she sat down infront of the vanity. 'What is happening? These feelings aren't supposed to happen. We were about to kiss yet again.' she thought in frustration. She stared at her reflection blankly. The small crystal on her necklace glowed softly in comfort. Usagi had to smile a bit. She examined her self in the small mirror; a faint blush was still evident. Her hand reached up ant touched her pink lipsticked lips. 'Would the kiss be as sweet and loving as it was before? Like the last time we kissed?' she thought wryly. Usagi sighed, this time dreamily. With one last look she stood up and walked out of her fitting room.
"So what was that all about?" asked Yaten, when Usagi walked up to the three lights. A mischievous grin plastered on his face, he wore as usual his blue suit. Seiya and Taiki stopped their talking and looked between a blushing Usagi and a grinning Yaten.
"What was what all about?" asked Seiya inquisitively raising an eyebrow. He wore his usual red suit.
Usagi blushed even more and stayed quiet. Yaten just snickered and answered, "I just saw the famous Harry Potter almost kiss our little Usagi here,"
Seiya was dumbstruck his jaw went slack and starred with shock at a blushing Usagi. 'how could you? I thought we could have been.isn't it a bit too early?' he thought, his mind raced of what scene Usagi and Harry would have made if Yaten wouldn't have interrupted. 'How long have they been.' he thought angrily.
"Usagi.well.I don't know what to say." said Taiki looking quite surprised at Usagi's actions. He wore his light yellow suit for the concert.
"Never mind what happened. Look it's none of you business," said Usagi crossing her arms defensively across her chest, a blush was still evident. "Anyway, it's time for me to open this ball. Now if you excuse me it's time for me to go on." With that a blushing Usagi started to walk up on the dim stage.
"Yeah sure! Go on! Hot lips!" shouted Yaten as Usagi walked away.
Taiki just shock his head in despair and walked away to get ready for their song. Seiya just stayed put and waited for Usagi to sing. His mind raced as his possibilities to be with Usagi were crushed into pieces yet again. 'I'll always be your friend.' he thought sadly.
~
Harry made his way through the massive crowd of students and finally spotted Hermione and Ron sitting by one of the tables up front. He hastily took a seat next Ron and sighed loudly. He still couldn't believe what just happened between him and Usagi.
"Finally! We thought you wouldn't come back!" exclaimed Hermione after taking a sip of her drink.
"So what took you so long in her dressing room? what happened?" asked Ron leaning closer to Harry wanting to hear the whole story.
"Nothing.nothing happened." answered Harry trying hard to hide his blush.
Ron rolled his eyes at his answer thinking it was a pathetic excuse. "Yeah right," he mumbled.
"From the looks of it something happened." said Hermione grinning at Harry. She heard their whole conversation. She knew that Harry really liked Usagi but was to shy to say it.
"Not.nothing at all.really!" defended Harry. He tried to say something else but was cut of when the lights on the stage went completely out and the whole room became into a silent hush.
"It's starting!" whispered Hermione excitedly as she watched the stage with excitement.
Harry turned towards the pitch-black stage. His heart somewhat hammered in his chest, he knew that something was going to happen, but what he didn't knew. 'Usagi' he thought while waiting for something to happen. He knew that Usagi was the first one to sing, to officially open the ball.
A soft melody started to play in the background, suddenly few small star like lights went on, on the stage. The small stars floated in the background merrily dancing and swirling around creating a dim yet clear enough light on the stage. The stars created a dark night sky on the stage making it look almost like the real night sky. There were loud oooh's and aaah's from the audience even the teachers were quite amazed at the display of the stage.
Out of the corner of the stage walked up a dark figure. It was still too dark enough to make out who it was but surely everyone knew it was Usagi. The dim lights creating a soft halo around her but her features were still indescribable. Slowly the soft music became louder and clearer.
Harry's heart started to hammer harder in his chest as he watched Usagi walk slowly on the stage. She looked beautiful with the soft radiance of light around her. he was mesmerized on how she moved her body with the soft melody. What amazed him more was her beautiful and angelic voice as she started to sing.
I'll always remember
It was late afternoon
It lasted forever
And ended too soon
You were all by yourself
Staring up at a dark gray sky
I was changed..
Usagi began to sing slowly. Her voice magically enhanced by magic. After singing the first verse the light began to glow brighter and now she was visible by everybody. There were loud cheers for her when they all saw her and heard her beautiful voice. This song was her everything, she wrote after her encounter with Harry. When both have kissed and when she was him crying. Her heart went out for him. she felt strongly connected to him. Usagi searched the audience for Harry, only to find him sitting with Hermione and Ron infront gazing up at her and smiling at her. She smiled warmly back at him while singing, a slight blush a her checks. The song expresses her feelings on how she felt when both of them kissed the other night.
In places no one would find
All your feelings so deep inside (deep inside)
It was then that I realized
That forever was in your eyes
The moment I saw you cry
The moment that I saw you cry
Harry listened intently as Usagi continued to sing. Somehow he felt strongly connected to the song. Somehow he felt that the song was for him. 'Nah, who am I kidding?' he thought. 'Why would she only sing for me?' he thought sadly. 'Because.you kissed.' his mind answered. The song expresses so many emotions towards Harry that he couldn't make out which is which. As he listened more intently and watched Usagi on stage singing and smiling at everyone and mostly glance in his direction he was able to make out a message out of the song. "Your song.only for you.for you alone." he could hear Usagi's voice ring in his mind. 'Mine?' he thought as he continued to listen to her song.
It was late in September
And I've seen you before (and you were)
You were always the cold one
But I was never that sure
You were all by yourself
Staring at a dark gray sky
I was changed
In places no one would find
All your feelings so deep inside (deep inside)
It was then that I realized
That forever was in your eyes
The moment I saw you cry
Usagi continued to sing, hoping that Harry would get the message of the song. She remembered how hurt he looked when he cried by the lake. How much pain radiated from him. The so much like hers. The pain of losing someone you loved. All she wanted to do that night was to hold him and make his pain go away. To make everything go away and be all right. Together they may share to pain. The stars in the background started to dance merrily around Usagi creating a beautiful radiance around her.
I wanted to hold you
I wanted to make it go away
I wanted to know you
I wanted to make your everything, all right....
(Usagi turned to Harry at that part and smiled mysteriously)
I'll always remember...
It was late afternoon...
In places no one would find...
The stars shoot out of the background illuminating the whole hall and completely turning all the lights on. (AN: Just imagine the music video of Cry.it's in that sort of way ^o^;). Usagi smiled when she realized something while singing, she knew how Harry felt and no one else did. No one would know except her self. She knew his feelings. His eyes were the doors to his emotions. His beautiful emerald green eyes. "Your song.only for you.for you alone" she repeated the message for Harry smiling at him when both of them made eye contact.
In places no one would find
All your feelings so deep inside (deep inside)
It was then that I realized
That forever was in your eyes
The moment I saw you cry
Usagi slowly ended the song. She was very happy with the reaction that she received. A loud round of applause and cheers filled the air. She noticed Harry cheering happily up at her. She really felt better now since most of her mixed emotions disappeared during the song. It was probably because she put her whole heart into it. She couldn't have done this song without Harry since he was the reason who inspired her to write this song. 'Only for you.Harry." She thought happily gazing down at the audience at giving her friend a thumb up. She fixed her gaze at Harry who in turn looked back at her as intently. When their eyes meet yet again both of them felt a certain emotion sweep over them. It was the same feeling as before but now more intense and much more intense. Usagi was a bit startled at this feeling as it came suddenly. 'What the?' she shock her head lightly and realized that she still on the stage.
"Thank you everybody! Now I call this ball officially opened! Let get going guys!" she shouted enthusiastically. There was a loud cheer of applause before music started to play again. The three lights joined Usagi on the stage with much screams from the girls and all for of them started to sing their songs. Students filled the dancing area to dance along the music. The Halloween ball was a big success.
Seiya took several glances towards Usagi while singing. He understood the message of the song Usagi sang earlier. He knew what it meant and understood it. He knew whom it was intended for. 'Harry Potter.' Seiya thought angrily. He turned towards Usagi only to find her making eye contact with Harry Potter. He felt jealous, he really wished it were him Usagi would be singing to not Harry Potter. 'I'll only be your friend.forever.' he thought sadly while singing "Alone at Midnight" (AN: Mayonaka Hitori) it would be their last song before the break.
"Thank you everyone! You've been a great audience!" said a sweating/panting Taiki after their last song.
"We will be taking a break now but after the break we will be performing our last song!" announced a sweating Yaten. They were all really tired since they have been singing for three hours straight.
"In accompaniment of Hogwarts very own voice lesson class, we will be performing 'Search for your love,'" said Seiya sweating slightly. He was really tired now and wanted to sit down and relax.
Usagi smiled tiredly at everyone. She has no strength anymore to say something. What she wanted to do was to get out and get some cool fresh air. She ran her hand trough her long blond hair. She followed the guys down the stage silently. They went up to Harry, Hermione and Ron's table asking if they were able to sit down. The three agreed enthusiastically complimenting them with their excellent singing. Somehow Usagi managed to sit down next to Harry, it amazes her how they always they end up sitting next to each other.
"Great performance back there. I really liked your song." said Harry turning towards Usagi.
Usagi turned to Harry when she heard his compliment. She smiled lightly at him. She still felt a bit shy towards him since what happened between them earlier that evening. "Thank you." she answered back slowly. She nervously gripped a paper napkin and ripped it into shreds out of her nervousness. She kept on staring into Harry's green eyes, they were attracting her so much. As if drawing her closer to him, his eyes always searching hers. 'Try to break contact or else you end up kissing again.and this time it'll be public.' She mentally warned herself.
Harry tried to muster up his courage and say something. But he always ended up staring into Usagi's beautiful ocean blue eyes. 'C'mon say something!' he coached himself. Finally he was able to say something but even he was surprised what came out of his mouth.
"So, you wanna go for a walk outside?" he asked suddenly breaking eye contact with her and looking straight at the table in fear of embarrassment if he would be turned down.
Usagi was surprised at his question. 'The two of us walk? Alone? Together? Outside? In the dark night?' she thought staring back at Harry. She smiled shyly at him before agreeing. "Sure, why not." A slight blush tinged her checks.
Harry was very happy that Usagi agreed. Immediately both of them stood up and excused themselves from their friends only to receive funny looks from them. Ron even gave Harry thumbs up.
"Well those two are getting along fine," said Hermione smugly after Harry and Usagi left.
"Yep! Really fine!" agreed Ron happily grinning in the direction both of them disappeared two. "Too bad the four of you will be leaving after this. We could have Usagi and Harry hock up and make them a couple." Added Ron sadly.
Yaten blew a few stray strands of hair of his eyes. "I wouldn't be so sure of that." He mumbled silently only for him to hear.
Seiya glared angrily in the direction the two disappeared to. Wishing it would have been him who would have been with Usagi and not Harry. "Yeah great just great." He mumbled sadly. Yaten and Taiki exchanged concerned looks.
~Outside, Hogwarts Grounds~
Usagi and Harry were walking side by side outside in the dark night. There were only a few students outside mostly were couples making out or like them taking a walk in the Moonlight. They were walking near the lake in complete silence both of them enjoying each other's company with out knowing. Sometimes they would steal glances at each other with out the other knowing. It was Harry who broke the silence.
"It's a beautiful night," said Harry when they stopped walking and were now infront of the lake. The soft cold night wind created ripples on the surface of the lake breaking the reflection of the full Moon on its surface.
Usagi nodded silently. She enjoyed the complete silence with Harry but she enjoyed it even more when he spoke to her. Both of them sat down on the cool grass sitting close to each other. Usagi involuntarily shivered because of the sudden way she was close to Harry and before she knew it she felt Harry's robe draped around the two of them. Usagi now realized how close they really were to each other, they were practically cuddled together under his robe. Usagi had to blush really hard and she noted that Harry was also blushing. Her heart rate began beating faster, she tried to calm herself in fear that he might hear her heart beat. 'Calm down, just calm down' she repeated mentally. Again there was a heavy silence between the two. Usagi grasped this opportunity and looked a bit around. Realization hit her when she realized where they were, they were at the exact same place when they first kissed and where she found Harry crying. She wondered if Harry had noticed also. 'It's really funny how destiny plays with you.' she thought ironically. She looked at Harry silent features. He was completely silent after what he had said earlier. He just kept on staring at the lake. Usagi noted that he looked extremely handsome tonight, especially now that the light of the Moon illuminated his face.
"Usagi?" Harry suddenly spoke up again breaking the heavy silence between the two. He turned to her and gazed into her cerulean blue eyes.
"Hmm?" Usagi turned to him when she heard her name. Their faces were jus inches away from each other. Usagi gazed into Harry's emerald green eyes, their were drawing her nearer to him.
"Your song 'Cry' I really loved it by the way," Harry said while staring into her cerulean blue eyes.
Usagi blushed, "Thank you.you know.without you I couldn't have done that song," she said in a low voice, averting her eyes away from Harry.
Harry was quite surprised to her that one. "How?" he really wanted to know. The feelings inside of him grew. He enjoyed the nearness of Usagi next to him.
Usagi blushed harder but turned back to Harry. She felt new feelings for him. Certain unknown feelings that she never had felt before. She smiled lightly at him before answering. "I don't know.I guess it's because of the other night.when I saw you.cry.and.when we.we." she stammered while she blushed crimson and looked away.
Harry blushed also, he knew exactly what she meant. She meant when they kissed. The foreign feelings inside of him felt so different than before. Only when Usagi would be near him his heart thumb fast and he would get at loss of words. 'To bad she wont be here anymore to know how I feel.' he thought sadly. There was a long moment of silence between the two.
"To bad.that you wont be here anymore.." said Harry slowly. After a few moments he realized what he said and his eyes grew with realization. He turned to Usagi, only to find her staring at him with a mixture of surprise and mystery.
When Usagi heard his words her heart began to beat faster. 'Does he want me to stay?' she thought happily. She smiled mysteriously at him. "Maybe. or maybe not!" she said playfully moving closer to him and forgetting the fact that their faces were mere inches apart.
Harry looked at her quizzically, 'what does she mean by that? Does it mean that they stay?' he thought happily.
A gust of wind blew in their direction, ruffling his hair and Usagi's. The wind blew some stray strands of wavy blond hair into Usagi's face. Usagi was about to reach up and tuck them away, when Harry reached forward and did it himself. Everything went in slow motion for both of them as Harry slowly tucked away the stray strands of blond hair behind Usagi's ears.
Usagi stared into Harry's emerald green eyes. She could feel his intimate touch as he brushed away a few strands of her hair. She felt his hand brush lightly against her cheek. Her face grew hot from the blushing, her heartbeat quickened in pace. 'What is going on? These feelings.are so different.so new.I never felt this way around mamoru.' She thought.
Both of them stared into each other's eyes before slowly very slowly closing in. both them could feel the other's hot, unsteady breathing on the other's face. Slowly their lips touched lightly.
BOOM!
There was a loud crash of thunder from the sky. Usagi immediately pulled away from Harry and starred up at the dark cloudy night sky with fear. Her fear of thunder kicking in. Harry looked up at the sky half surprised and half annoyed; again their kiss was disturbed. Slowly drops of rain fell down from the sky, hitting both Usagi and Harry. Then another loud crash pf thunder came before heavy rain came pelting down in buckets. The rain immediately soaked Usagi and Harry in a second. Usagi yelped in fear another thunder crash was hear. Students that were there a while a go made a mad dash back into the castle.
"We should look for a place to get dry!" shouted Harry over the loud crashes of thunder and lightning. He could see Usagi nod as a response. He quickly grabbed Usagi by the arm and pulled her with him under one of the nearby trees. The tree was just big enough to accommodate both of them under it, only when they would get really closer to each other. Both of them were soaked to the bone. As he stood next to Usagi he could see her shivering and mumbling something like 'I am not afraid of thunder, I am not afraid of thunder, I am not afraid.' over and over again. She had fear written all over hear wet face when thunder and lighting would strike. Harry took in her little profile, she looked so different now, like a bunny caught in a trap. 'A wet bunny,' he added. She looked so vulnerable and innocent right now. Her angelic face cover with raindrops and her hair clinging to her face. Her dress now stuck to her body now like a second skin. It clung especially clear on the most curvy places. (Harry blushed crimson right now). But most evidently she was frightened by the thunder. Feeling concerned he gently pulled her closer to him, hugging her around the waist. He could feel her shiver most likely because of the cold and in fear. He could feel her flinch when the thunder and lightning struck. He heard her mumble against his chest. He slowly rocked them back and forth in order to soothe her.
"Everything's fine, I am here. No need to be scared," Harry mumbled into Usagi's hair.
Usagi whimpered when more thunder and lightning came crashing down. She held onto Harry as if he was her only lifeline. She wondered how she ever ended up here in the first place. First they were about to kiss and now they are under a tree hiding from the pelting rain. Another loud crash of thunder boom, 'I hate thunder.I hate it.thank kami that Harry is here.' she thought with a sigh of relief. She held onto Harry more closer, mumbling 'I am not scared' over and over again. She then heard Harry's soothing words ring into her ears. His words had such a different effect on her, like everything went away. Her fear just disappeared and he could make her feel much better. She slowly lifted her head and stared into Harry's drenched face. When their eyes meet and gazed into each other's the whole world around them disappeared. To Usagi the rain, thunder and lighting melted away. It was just the two of them and all eternity.
Again, both of them starred into each other's eyes with emotions neither one could explain or know. Without knowing Harry reached out and touched Usagi's cheek, feeling the coolness of his hand upon her face Usagi blushed. Then very slowly they leaned towards each other. This time sure they would kiss and no one would ever disturb them. Slowly their lips touched, expressing a much-needed kiss. A kiss very simple but yet expresses much emotion. The kiss seemed to express how much they yearned the others nearness. Very timidly, Usagi reached up and placed her arms behind Harry's neck as Harry pulled her closer to him by holding her around ther waist. The kiss slowly turned into a more passionate one. Passions between the two of them grew as they expressed their whole emotions through the kiss and their tongues dances with each other. As they kissed they were ignoring their surroundings, they ignored the loud crashing of thunder and lightning. It was just them, the two of them alone, under a tree. Expressing their emotions. Just Harry and Usagi.

Chapter 6
"Songs of love."
For the rest of the week Usagi avoided Harry at all costs. She didn't see him anywhere. She was still thinking about the brief yet sweet kiss they shared the other night. The night when he cried. She was constantly busy with the upcoming Halloween Ball that she wasn't able to see Harry at all.
'What did it mean?' she thought as she stared at her reflection in her full- length body mirror. It was the night of the Halloween ball they were all getting ready. She was in her small dressing room behind the big stage. The guys were also in their dressing room getting ready as well.
'It meant nothing, you were just caught up in the moment, that's all,' she assured herself. She took another glance at her reflection, smiling slightly how nice she looked. She wore a long and elegant black dress that reached the ground slightly. It had off shoulders sleeves, with silver trimmings. Showing her bare shoulders, a silver necklace adored around her neck with a pure white crystal dangling happily. The black dress fit her perfectly; it stayed perfect in every curve of her body. It had a long slit on the right side, up to her mid thigh. Around her small waist dangled a long silver cord as an accessory. She wore silver Moon dangling earrings. Her hair was free, it was slightly curled making a wavy effect. She smiled brightly at her reflection.
"How do I look?" she asked turning around to examine the back of the dress, which of course showed her open back.
"You look absolutely stunning, hime!" crowed the mirror happily.
Usagi frowned slightly after hearing the formality. "Don't call me that," she said waving a finger at the mirror.
"Of course, you look stunning as always. The man you like will notice for sure," crowed the mirror.
Usagi looked at the mirror stunned. Then she started to blush, "Oh no, no, no. I don't like him. I was just caught up in the moment that's all. The kiss was just something.something..something," she rambled trying to make up an excuse. She knew exactly whom the mirror was referring to. But how the mirror knew was questionable. Usagi still blushing sat down infront of the vanity and stared blankly at her reflection. Remembering what happened nights before.
"Nothing at all, nothing at all," she repeated. Looked at her reflection, when she remembered the kiss, a tingling sensation spread on her lips. She touched her lips feeling the same tingling sensation that lingered after the brief kiss. 'Is Harry thinking the same thing?' she wondered dreamily. She then blushed when she realized what she was dreaming about. Trying to stop thinking about it, she tried to focus and finish her make up. Which was very light, just a light brush here and a bit of lipstick. Sighing she put down the tube of lipstick and frowned slightly. 'I still cant keep my self from thinking about the kiss, it meant something,' she thought. Sighing she contemplated what is happening.
Suddenly there was a knock on the door. Usagi looked up, disturbing her from her thoughts. 'Harry?' she thought. She blushed again for thinking about Harry. 'I seem, to think about him a lot lately.' She mused, a slight smile plastered on her face. "Come in," she shouted standing up. She quickly put on a silver bracelet with moons and stars and bells jingling around her left wrist. She turned to the people at the door, she was very surprised to see who they were.
"Hey! What are you guys doing here?!" shouted Usagi, she was happy to see her friends, Hermione and Ron standing there. But she was quite nervous to see Harry standing with them looking as handsome as ever in his dark almost black, blue robe. A slight blush tinged her cheeks when she stared at him.
"You look amazing!" exclaimed Hermione. She wore a baby blue dress robe and her hair was done magically. Hermione looked quite improved. What Usagi surprised most was that she was holding hands with Ron.
Usagi smiled lightly, "Thanks, Hermione you look great! Gees I didn't recognize you there for a minute." She joked, she raised an eyebrow at Ron who started to blush furiously.
"We just came here to wish you good luck," said Ron grinning at Usagi.
Usagi nodded, she smiled slyly when she looked at Ron's and Hermione's clasped hands. "So you two finally stopped bickering and do something you both agree on?" she commented eyeing the two.
Hermione and Ron both started to blush furiously. Usagi giggled lightly. She knew both of them were meant to be with each other. It was very obvious that they liked each other a lot. "You know the saying, 'The more you hate the more you love,' or in your case the more you fight the more you love," said Usagi giggling when Hermione and Ron blushed redder.
"Well, good luck. Me and 'mione will get some seats." Said Ron. He quickly grabbed Hermione's hand and both of them darted out of the room leaving both Harry and Usagi alone. Harry didn't talk much to Usagi after the kiss so now he felt kinda awkward with Usagi.
Usagi looked desperately at the door where Ron and Hermione went out, wishing that they would came back in. She really didn't want to talk to Harry, but in her inside all she wanted to do was be with Harry forever. 'Stop it! this is not supposed to happen!' she mentally shouted. She bit her lip trying to think for something to say to Harry. 'He looks so handsome,' she thought staring at Harry for a few minutes. There was a long uncomfortable silence between the two.
Harry starred at Usagi for a long time. He couldn't make up anything to say. He was still thinking about the kiss they shared night before. He also wondered why he wasn't able to see Usagi for the rest of the week. 'Because you were avoiding her stupid!' he mentally shouted. 'or maybe was she avoiding me?' he added uncertain. He took in her beautiful appearance. She looked very attractive with her long black dress Harry noted. A slight blush tinged his cheeks, 'Damn hormones,' he cursed mentally. Sighing he tried to make a simple conversation with her and try to avoid her eyes at all costs. But as usual he failed miserably.
"You look great," Harry said finally breaking Usagi from her thoughts.
Usagi looked up startled, she stared into Harry's eyes for a while before blushing crimson. "Thank you," she mumbled shyly. She offered Harry a shy smile.
Harry smiled back slightly still blushing. He then remembered something that he wanted to give her. "Oh wait a second. I have something for you," he said smiling at Usagi. He put his hand in the pockets of his dark blue robe and very delicately pulled out a single long stemmed white rose. The rose was a magical rose that would change color occasionally depending on the emotions that were around it. There were no thorns on it since Harry personally took them of himself since he didn't want Usagi to get pricked by one. He gently held out the rose for Usagi.
"It's beautiful," breathed Usagi as she looked at the rose Harry help out for her. "You really shouldn't have," she said still looking at the rose before looking at Harry tenderly, a blush tinged her cheeks.
Harry just shrugged, "It's a gift. For good luck for later. Besides I really wanted to give you something." He said blushing slightly as he starred at Usagi. "It's a Emotion Rose, it changes color depending with the emotions of the owner or the emotions that are around it." he added smiling.
Usagi blushed, 'Pull yourself together!' she ordered. She nodded and reached out for the rose, taking it from Harry's hand. Something happened when their hands touched.
When Usagi reached out for the rose their hands brushed against each other and an electrifying current past through their bodies. Harry and Usagi both looked up simultaneously and starred into each others eyes confused and shocked all at once. It was almost like the same feeling when they made eye contact and they felt something 'click'. This time it felt deeper, warmer. Usagi then touched the rose, Harry was still holding it, both of them were holding the rose and before their very eyes the rose changed color. From a pure white color it changed into a pure red one.
Usagi starred at the red rose that she now held in her hands. She starred at it with shock, when both of them were holding the rose, it changed into a red one. She knew exactly what this color stands for. A blush tinged her cheeks with realization, for sure Harry knew exactly what it meant also. 'Love'.
Usagi looked up and starred at Harry's equally surprised eyes. There was a long moment of silence between the two. Both of them lost in their own little worlds. 'I cant be in love! I can't risk another loved one! Not after Mamo-chan! I cant.but.I cant stop falling in love.' she thought finally in defeat. She remembered her mothers' words. "Its time to move one" 'Time to move on.Time to fall in love?' she thought while still starring into Harry's emerald green eyes. 'I don't know.' she thought fixing her gaze back to the red rose. She offered Harry a shy smile.
Harry starred with astonishment at the now reed rose. He knew exactly what it meant. 'Love' his mind chided. When both of them were holding the rose it magically changed to a red one. 'But how? Could she actually love me? Or am I the one in love? Or are we BOTH in love.does she feel the way I feel?' he thought as he fixed his eyes at Usagi. He started to blush with realization.both of them were in love. He felt exactly the same way when they looked into each other's eyes and felt a certain attraction to her. He felt the same way when they kissed, a brief yet sweet and gentle kiss. Now this feeling was deeper much more deeper. He started to stare deep into Usagi's eyes when their eyes meet. He was surprised to shock, turmoil, sadness and . love. He returned Usagi's shy smile when she smiled at him. Seeming to find nothing else to say both of them stayed quiet for a long time searching for answers in each other's eyes and trying to make up something to say.
Usagi bit her and looked back down at the rose. "Thank you." she whispered slowly a blush crept on her cheeks.
Harry nodded, he was able to make out what she was saying. "You.you.should probably put it in a vase. It won't die.its magical." he answered. He felt awkward being with her right now, 'Because she knows how you feel.' His mind added. He really didn't know how to act right now.
Usagi nodded, she turned on her heels and walked over to the vanity where a crystal vase stood. She carefully placed the rose in the vase and starred at it for a while. 'Does that mean he loves me? He doesn't know me.not the real me.yet.I.do like him...this feeling is so new.so different than the way I felt with Mamo-chan.' She thought. Usagi turned back around to face Harry smiling slightly at him.
"Thank you for the rose, it was very kind of you." She said smiling slightly. She bit her lips uneasily, and tried to think up to say something else. 'C'mon, think of something to say. Don't act stupid!' she mentally pep-talked herself. She then saw Harry's hand, which had a few band-aids on them. She furrowed her brow in confusion and starred at his right hand.
"You're hurt?" she asked slowly walking towards him and taking his hand in hers and examining. Clearly there were some wounds on it, and some were covered with band-aids. She traced her hand across some small pricks. She really didn't realize how close they are again.
Harry was quite surprised to see Usagi hurrying towards him and taking his hand in hers and examining it. he could feel her soft hand trace along some of his wounds. He got them when he took off the thorns of the magical rose. He started to blush slightly when he noticed how close Usagi was to him.
"Its.nothing.I got those from taking off the thorns of your rose." He informed in a slight whisper. He was too mesmerized by the way Usagi was so close to him and as she traced his hand. He could smell her sweet perfume. It was quite intoxicating, he starred at her dreamily.
Usagi looked up when she heard why his hand was full of small wounds. 'You did it for me?' she questioned mentally. She starred into his emerald green eyes. A slight blush tinged her cheeks. "Thank you. That was very sweet of you," she whispered slowly.
Both of them continued to stare into each other's eyes. Very slowly they moved closer to each other. Not knowing what was going on between them, as if a small force was pulling them together. Slowly their faces moved in together for a kiss. Their lips were merely a few millimeters away from each other's. Both of them were yearning for the much-expected kiss. Slowly.closer.closer..
"USAGI!!!!"
Usagi and Harry's eyes immediately shot open when they heard a loud shout from the door. Usagi and Harry both gasped when they realized what they were about to do and immediately blushed crimson. Both of them were pulled away from each other when they noticed how close they were to each other.
"Am I disturbing something?" asked a very surprised Yaten, as he was the one who shouted. He was standing by the open door and looking between Usagi and Harry suspiciously. Obviously both of them were about to kiss.
It took time for Usagi to register what just happened. Yaten had seen Harry and herself almost kiss. 'We almost kissed.again.' she thought as she stared at Harry with mixed emotions. A huge blush stained her cheeks and turned to Yaten.
"No, not.not.nothing at all." she stuttered staring at a surprised Yaten.
Yaten just raised an eyebrow; he switched his gaze to a blushing Harry. 'Seiya won't like this at all.' he thought. He turned back towards Usagi, "I just came here to tell you that you're up in a few minutes. So whatever you two were planning to do, it better be quick." He said before turning on his heel and walking out closing the door behind him.
Usagi stared at the closed door with surprise. She then turned to a blushing Harry. 'Oh my, what were we about to do? What happened?' her mind raced with so many questions. Mixed emotions churned inside of her.
Harry stared at Usagi with mixed emotions. He still didn't know what he felt towards her and yet they were about to kiss and if wasn't for Yaten both of them would be kissing right now. His blush became redder when he remembered how close they were together before Yaten barged into them.
There was a moment a long and heavy silence between them. Neither of them knowing what to say. Both of them were lost in their own little thought. They exchanged unknown glances with each other trying to think up something to say to one another. It was Harry who broke the heavy silence.
"I guess I should get going now. You'll be up on stage any minute. You should join us at our table later." Said Harry slowly looking up at Usagi. He didn't meet her eyes in fear of what might happen. Slowly he made his way out of the door still feeling confused of them emotions within him.
Usagi bit her lip, not knowing what to say. she watched Harry sadly walk out of her fitting room and close the wooden door behind him. Usagi heaved a heavy sigh as she sat down infront of the vanity. 'What is happening? These feelings aren't supposed to happen. We were about to kiss yet again.' she thought in frustration. She stared at her reflection blankly. The small crystal on her necklace glowed softly in comfort. Usagi had to smile a bit. She examined her self in the small mirror; a faint blush was still evident. Her hand reached up ant touched her pink lipsticked lips. 'Would the kiss be as sweet and loving as it was before? Like the last time we kissed?' she thought wryly. Usagi sighed, this time dreamily. With one last look she stood up and walked out of her fitting room.
"So what was that all about?" asked Yaten, when Usagi walked up to the three lights. A mischievous grin plastered on his face, he wore as usual his blue suit. Seiya and Taiki stopped their talking and looked between a blushing Usagi and a grinning Yaten.
"What was what all about?" asked Seiya inquisitively raising an eyebrow. He wore his usual red suit.
Usagi blushed even more and stayed quiet. Yaten just snickered and answered, "I just saw the famous Harry Potter almost kiss our little Usagi here,"
Seiya was dumbstruck his jaw went slack and starred with shock at a blushing Usagi. 'how could you? I thought we could have been.isn't it a bit too early?' he thought, his mind raced of what scene Usagi and Harry would have made if Yaten wouldn't have interrupted. 'How long have they been.' he thought angrily.
"Usagi.well.I don't know what to say." said Taiki looking quite surprised at Usagi's actions. He wore his light yellow suit for the concert.
"Never mind what happened. Look it's none of you business," said Usagi crossing her arms defensively across her chest, a blush was still evident. "Anyway, it's time for me to open this ball. Now if you excuse me it's time for me to go on." With that a blushing Usagi started to walk up on the dim stage.
"Yeah sure! Go on! Hot lips!" shouted Yaten as Usagi walked away.
Taiki just shock his head in despair and walked away to get ready for their song. Seiya just stayed put and waited for Usagi to sing. His mind raced as his possibilities to be with Usagi were crushed into pieces yet again. 'I'll always be your friend.' he thought sadly.
~
Harry made his way through the massive crowd of students and finally spotted Hermione and Ron sitting by one of the tables up front. He hastily took a seat next Ron and sighed loudly. He still couldn't believe what just happened between him and Usagi.
"Finally! We thought you wouldn't come back!" exclaimed Hermione after taking a sip of her drink.
"So what took you so long in her dressing room? what happened?" asked Ron leaning closer to Harry wanting to hear the whole story.
"Nothing.nothing happened." answered Harry trying hard to hide his blush.
Ron rolled his eyes at his answer thinking it was a pathetic excuse. "Yeah right," he mumbled.
"From the looks of it something happened." said Hermione grinning at Harry. She heard their whole conversation. She knew that Harry really liked Usagi but was to shy to say it.
"Not.nothing at all.really!" defended Harry. He tried to say something else but was cut of when the lights on the stage went completely out and the whole room became into a silent hush.
"It's starting!" whispered Hermione excitedly as she watched the stage with excitement.
Harry turned towards the pitch-black stage. His heart somewhat hammered in his chest, he knew that something was going to happen, but what he didn't knew. 'Usagi' he thought while waiting for something to happen. He knew that Usagi was the first one to sing, to officially open the ball.
A soft melody started to play in the background, suddenly few small star like lights went on, on the stage. The small stars floated in the background merrily dancing and swirling around creating a dim yet clear enough light on the stage. The stars created a dark night sky on the stage making it look almost like the real night sky. There were loud oooh's and aaah's from the audience even the teachers were quite amazed at the display of the stage.
Out of the corner of the stage walked up a dark figure. It was still too dark enough to make out who it was but surely everyone knew it was Usagi. The dim lights creating a soft halo around her but her features were still indescribable. Slowly the soft music became louder and clearer.
Harry's heart started to hammer harder in his chest as he watched Usagi walk slowly on the stage. She looked beautiful with the soft radiance of light around her. he was mesmerized on how she moved her body with the soft melody. What amazed him more was her beautiful and angelic voice as she started to sing.
I'll always remember
It was late afternoon
It lasted forever
And ended too soon
You were all by yourself
Staring up at a dark gray sky
I was changed..
Usagi began to sing slowly. Her voice magically enhanced by magic. After singing the first verse the light began to glow brighter and now she was visible by everybody. There were loud cheers for her when they all saw her and heard her beautiful voice. This song was her everything, she wrote after her encounter with Harry. When both have kissed and when she was him crying. Her heart went out for him. she felt strongly connected to him. Usagi searched the audience for Harry, only to find him sitting with Hermione and Ron infront gazing up at her and smiling at her. She smiled warmly back at him while singing, a slight blush a her checks. The song expresses her feelings on how she felt when both of them kissed the other night.
In places no one would find
All your feelings so deep inside (deep inside)
It was then that I realized
That forever was in your eyes
The moment I saw you cry
The moment that I saw you cry
Harry listened intently as Usagi continued to sing. Somehow he felt strongly connected to the song. Somehow he felt that the song was for him. 'Nah, who am I kidding?' he thought. 'Why would she only sing for me?' he thought sadly. 'Because.you kissed.' his mind answered. The song expresses so many emotions towards Harry that he couldn't make out which is which. As he listened more intently and watched Usagi on stage singing and smiling at everyone and mostly glance in his direction he was able to make out a message out of the song. "Your song.only for you.for you alone." he could hear Usagi's voice ring in his mind. 'Mine?' he thought as he continued to listen to her song.
It was late in September
And I've seen you before (and you were)
You were always the cold one
But I was never that sure
You were all by yourself
Staring at a dark gray sky
I was changed
In places no one would find
All your feelings so deep inside (deep inside)
It was then that I realized
That forever was in your eyes
The moment I saw you cry
Usagi continued to sing, hoping that Harry would get the message of the song. She remembered how hurt he looked when he cried by the lake. How much pain radiated from him. The so much like hers. The pain of losing someone you loved. All she wanted to do that night was to hold him and make his pain go away. To make everything go away and be all right. Together they may share to pain. The stars in the background started to dance merrily around Usagi creating a beautiful radiance around her.
I wanted to hold you
I wanted to make it go away
I wanted to know you
I wanted to make your everything, all right....
(Usagi turned to Harry at that part and smiled mysteriously)
I'll always remember...
It was late afternoon...
In places no one would find...
The stars shoot out of the background illuminating the whole hall and completely turning all the lights on. (AN: Just imagine the music video of Cry.it's in that sort of way ^o^;). Usagi smiled when she realized something while singing, she knew how Harry felt and no one else did. No one would know except her self. She knew his feelings. His eyes were the doors to his emotions. His beautiful emerald green eyes. "Your song.only for you.for you alone" she repeated the message for Harry smiling at him when both of them made eye contact.
In places no one would find
All your feelings so deep inside (deep inside)
It was then that I realized
That forever was in your eyes
The moment I saw you cry
Usagi slowly ended the song. She was very happy with the reaction that she received. A loud round of applause and cheers filled the air. She noticed Harry cheering happily up at her. She really felt better now since most of her mixed emotions disappeared during the song. It was probably because she put her whole heart into it. She couldn't have done this song without Harry since he was the reason who inspired her to write this song. 'Only for you.Harry." She thought happily gazing down at the audience at giving her friend a thumb up. She fixed her gaze at Harry who in turn looked back at her as intently. When their eyes meet yet again both of them felt a certain emotion sweep over them. It was the same feeling as before but now more intense and much more intense. Usagi was a bit startled at this feeling as it came suddenly. 'What the?' she shock her head lightly and realized that she still on the stage.
"Thank you everybody! Now I call this ball officially opened! Let get going guys!" she shouted enthusiastically. There was a loud cheer of applause before music started to play again. The three lights joined Usagi on the stage with much screams from the girls and all for of them started to sing their songs. Students filled the dancing area to dance along the music. The Halloween ball was a big success.
Seiya took several glances towards Usagi while singing. He understood the message of the song Usagi sang earlier. He knew what it meant and understood it. He knew whom it was intended for. 'Harry Potter.' Seiya thought angrily. He turned towards Usagi only to find her making eye contact with Harry Potter. He felt jealous, he really wished it were him Usagi would be singing to not Harry Potter. 'I'll only be your friend.forever.' he thought sadly while singing "Alone at Midnight" (AN: Mayonaka Hitori) it would be their last song before the break.
"Thank you everyone! You've been a great audience!" said a sweating/panting Taiki after their last song.
"We will be taking a break now but after the break we will be performing our last song!" announced a sweating Yaten. They were all really tired since they have been singing for three hours straight.
"In accompaniment of Hogwarts very own voice lesson class, we will be performing 'Search for your love,'" said Seiya sweating slightly. He was really tired now and wanted to sit down and relax.
Usagi smiled tiredly at everyone. She has no strength anymore to say something. What she wanted to do was to get out and get some cool fresh air. She ran her hand trough her long blond hair. She followed the guys down the stage silently. They went up to Harry, Hermione and Ron's table asking if they were able to sit down. The three agreed enthusiastically complimenting them with their excellent singing. Somehow Usagi managed to sit down next to Harry, it amazes her how they always they end up sitting next to each other.
"Great performance back there. I really liked your song." said Harry turning towards Usagi.
Usagi turned to Harry when she heard his compliment. She smiled lightly at him. She still felt a bit shy towards him since what happened between them earlier that evening. "Thank you." she answered back slowly. She nervously gripped a paper napkin and ripped it into shreds out of her nervousness. She kept on staring into Harry's green eyes, they were attracting her so much. As if drawing her closer to him, his eyes always searching hers. 'Try to break contact or else you end up kissing again.and this time it'll be public.' She mentally warned herself.
Harry tried to muster up his courage and say something. But he always ended up staring into Usagi's beautiful ocean blue eyes. 'C'mon say something!' he coached himself. Finally he was able to say something but even he was surprised what came out of his mouth.
"So, you wanna go for a walk outside?" he asked suddenly breaking eye contact with her and looking straight at the table in fear of embarrassment if he would be turned down.
Usagi was surprised at his question. 'The two of us walk? Alone? Together? Outside? In the dark night?' she thought staring back at Harry. She smiled shyly at him before agreeing. "Sure, why not." A slight blush tinged her checks.
Harry was very happy that Usagi agreed. Immediately both of them stood up and excused themselves from their friends only to receive funny looks from them. Ron even gave Harry thumbs up.
"Well those two are getting along fine," said Hermione smugly after Harry and Usagi left.
"Yep! Really fine!" agreed Ron happily grinning in the direction both of them disappeared two. "Too bad the four of you will be leaving after this. We could have Usagi and Harry hock up and make them a couple." Added Ron sadly.
Yaten blew a few stray strands of hair of his eyes. "I wouldn't be so sure of that." He mumbled silently only for him to hear.
Seiya glared angrily in the direction the two disappeared to. Wishing it would have been him who would have been with Usagi and not Harry. "Yeah great just great." He mumbled sadly. Yaten and Taiki exchanged concerned looks.
~Outside, Hogwarts Grounds~
Usagi and Harry were walking side by side outside in the dark night. There were only a few students outside mostly were couples making out or like them taking a walk in the Moonlight. They were walking near the lake in complete silence both of them enjoying each other's company with out knowing. Sometimes they would steal glances at each other with out the other knowing. It was Harry who broke the silence.
"It's a beautiful night," said Harry when they stopped walking and were now infront of the lake. The soft cold night wind created ripples on the surface of the lake breaking the reflection of the full Moon on its surface.
Usagi nodded silently. She enjoyed the complete silence with Harry but she enjoyed it even more when he spoke to her. Both of them sat down on the cool grass sitting close to each other. Usagi involuntarily shivered because of the sudden way she was close to Harry and before she knew it she felt Harry's robe draped around the two of them. Usagi now realized how close they really were to each other, they were practically cuddled together under his robe. Usagi had to blush really hard and she noted that Harry was also blushing. Her heart rate began beating faster, she tried to calm herself in fear that he might hear her heart beat. 'Calm down, just calm down' she repeated mentally. Again there was a heavy silence between the two. Usagi grasped this opportunity and looked a bit around. Realization hit her when she realized where they were, they were at the exact same place when they first kissed and where she found Harry crying. She wondered if Harry had noticed also. 'It's really funny how destiny plays with you.' she thought ironically. She looked at Harry silent features. He was completely silent after what he had said earlier. He just kept on staring at the lake. Usagi noted that he looked extremely handsome tonight, especially now that the light of the Moon illuminated his face.
"Usagi?" Harry suddenly spoke up again breaking the heavy silence between the two. He turned to her and gazed into her cerulean blue eyes.
"Hmm?" Usagi turned to him when she heard her name. Their faces were jus inches away from each other. Usagi gazed into Harry's emerald green eyes, their were drawing her nearer to him.
"Your song 'Cry' I really loved it by the way," Harry said while staring into her cerulean blue eyes.
Usagi blushed, "Thank you.you know.without you I couldn't have done that song," she said in a low voice, averting her eyes away from Harry.
Harry was quite surprised to her that one. "How?" he really wanted to know. The feelings inside of him grew. He enjoyed the nearness of Usagi next to him.
Usagi blushed harder but turned back to Harry. She felt new feelings for him. Certain unknown feelings that she never had felt before. She smiled lightly at him before answering. "I don't know.I guess it's because of the other night.when I saw you.cry.and.when we.we." she stammered while she blushed crimson and looked away.
Harry blushed also, he knew exactly what she meant. She meant when they kissed. The foreign feelings inside of him felt so different than before. Only when Usagi would be near him his heart thumb fast and he would get at loss of words. 'To bad she wont be here anymore to know how I feel.' he thought sadly. There was a long moment of silence between the two.
"To bad.that you wont be here anymore.." said Harry slowly. After a few moments he realized what he said and his eyes grew with realization. He turned to Usagi, only to find her staring at him with a mixture of surprise and mystery.
When Usagi heard his words her heart began to beat faster. 'Does he want me to stay?' she thought happily. She smiled mysteriously at him. "Maybe. or maybe not!" she said playfully moving closer to him and forgetting the fact that their faces were mere inches apart.
Harry looked at her quizzically, 'what does she mean by that? Does it mean that they stay?' he thought happily.
A gust of wind blew in their direction, ruffling his hair and Usagi's. The wind blew some stray strands of wavy blond hair into Usagi's face. Usagi was about to reach up and tuck them away, when Harry reached forward and did it himself. Everything went in slow motion for both of them as Harry slowly tucked away the stray strands of blond hair behind Usagi's ears.
Usagi stared into Harry's emerald green eyes. She could feel his intimate touch as he brushed away a few strands of her hair. She felt his hand brush lightly against her cheek. Her face grew hot from the blushing, her heartbeat quickened in pace. 'What is going on? These feelings.are so different.so new.I never felt this way around mamoru.' She thought.
Both of them stared into each other's eyes before slowly very slowly closing in. both them could feel the other's hot, unsteady breathing on the other's face. Slowly their lips touched lightly.
BOOM!
There was a loud crash of thunder from the sky. Usagi immediately pulled away from Harry and starred up at the dark cloudy night sky with fear. Her fear of thunder kicking in. Harry looked up at the sky half surprised and half annoyed; again their kiss was disturbed. Slowly drops of rain fell down from the sky, hitting both Usagi and Harry. Then another loud crash pf thunder came before heavy rain came pelting down in buckets. The rain immediately soaked Usagi and Harry in a second. Usagi yelped in fear another thunder crash was hear. Students that were there a while a go made a mad dash back into the castle.
"We should look for a place to get dry!" shouted Harry over the loud crashes of thunder and lightning. He could see Usagi nod as a response. He quickly grabbed Usagi by the arm and pulled her with him under one of the nearby trees. The tree was just big enough to accommodate both of them under it, only when they would get really closer to each other. Both of them were soaked to the bone. As he stood next to Usagi he could see her shivering and mumbling something like 'I am not afraid of thunder, I am not afraid of thunder, I am not afraid.' over and over again. She had fear written all over hear wet face when thunder and lighting would strike. Harry took in her little profile, she looked so different now, like a bunny caught in a trap. 'A wet bunny,' he added. She looked so vulnerable and innocent right now. Her angelic face cover with raindrops and her hair clinging to her face. Her dress now stuck to her body now like a second skin. It clung especially clear on the most curvy places. (Harry blushed crimson right now). But most evidently she was frightened by the thunder. Feeling concerned he gently pulled her closer to him, hugging her around the waist. He could feel her shiver most likely because of the cold and in fear. He could feel her flinch when the thunder and lightning struck. He heard her mumble against his chest. He slowly rocked them back and forth in order to soothe her.
"Everything's fine, I am here. No need to be scared," Harry mumbled into Usagi's hair.
Usagi whimpered when more thunder and lightning came crashing down. She held onto Harry as if he was her only lifeline. She wondered how she ever ended up here in the first place. First they were about to kiss and now they are under a tree hiding from the pelting rain. Another loud crash of thunder boom, 'I hate thunder.I hate it.thank kami that Harry is here.' she thought with a sigh of relief. She held onto Harry more closer, mumbling 'I am not scared' over and over again. She then heard Harry's soothing words ring into her ears. His words had such a different effect on her, like everything went away. Her fear just disappeared and he could make her feel much better. She slowly lifted her head and stared into Harry's drenched face. When their eyes meet and gazed into each other's the whole world around them disappeared. To Usagi the rain, thunder and lighting melted away. It was just the two of them and all eternity.
Again, both of them starred into each other's eyes with emotions neither one could explain or know. Without knowing Harry reached out and touched Usagi's cheek, feeling the coolness of his hand upon her face Usagi blushed. Then very slowly they leaned towards each other. This time sure they would kiss and no one would ever disturb them. Slowly their lips touched, expressing a much-needed kiss. A kiss very simple but yet expresses much emotion. The kiss seemed to express how much they yearned the others nearness. Very timidly, Usagi reached up and placed her arms behind Harry's neck as Harry pulled her closer to him by holding her around ther waist. The kiss slowly turned into a more passionate one. Passions between the two of them grew as they expressed their whole emotions through the kiss and their tongues dances with each other. As they kissed they were ignoring their surroundings, they ignored the loud crashing of thunder and lightning. It was just them, the two of them alone, under a tree. Expressing their emotions. Just Harry and Usagi.
