"I am so tired," Usagi said, leaning her head on Trunks' shoulder.
There were muffled groans of agreement from the rest of the group as they walked slowly down the road. The sun was setting and the first of the stars had begun to peek through the clouds.
"I love summer," Minako said softly, stifling a yawn.
Motoki, who had arrived at the beach bearing sweets and sodas late in the afternoon, grinned down at her, "I know what you mean. There are just so many cute girls it's-"
Minako spun around and glared at him, "What cute girls?!"
Motoki shrugged innocently, "You know, the ones with long blonde hair, blue eyes, a love for volleyball and red ribbons in their hair."
Minako actually had the decency to blush, "Oh, alright, those kind are ok," she mumbled, snuggling back up to him.
Makoto yawned before leaning up and whispering something in Zaki's ear. He blushed but nodded before kissing her cheek softly. Makoto smiled and took his hand in her own.
Ami and Ryo were walking contentedly, gazing at each other occasionally, their hands clasped tightly together. Rei and Yuui were talking softly, Rei occasionally brushing a strand of long hair from his dark eyes.
They all arrived at Trunks' house.
"You guys wanna come in for some food, maybe a soda?" Trunks asked, smiling at everyone.
"Caffeine?" Minako asked, her eyes closing for a moment, "Yes, caffeine is good."
~*~*~*~*~
Half an hour later, only Minako, Motoki, Usagi and Rei were still conscious. The rest of the group had either left for their respective homes or crashed in one of the many guest rooms. The small cluster of people still sitting in the living room, were now engaged in a little game called Truth or Dare.
"Usagi, truth or dare?" Rei said, a devilish grin spreading across her face.
Usagi contemplated this for a moment before smiling a answering, "Truth!"
"Wha-! Ugh, fine! Um," Rei glared at her, "What are your feelings on a certain Chiba-san?"
Shock reflected on Usagi's face, "I-I, um," her eyes filled with tears, "I'm tired, good night."
She stood and dashed up the stairs. Minako smacked Rei's arm and dashed after her.
"What's wrong with her?" Trunks demanded, "Who's Chiba-san?"
Motoki sighed, "Chiba-san is better known as Mamoru. They've been dating for about two years and they were very much in love. Then Mamoru suddenly broke up with her, telling her that he found someone else and just walking off. We haven't seen him since."
'Yes we have, as Tuxedo Kamen,' Rei thought.
She stood, "I'm gonna go check on Usagi and then I'm gonna hit the sack."
The guys ignored her.
"The thing is," Motoki said as Rei was leaving, "That while I haven't seen him, the girls have," Rei froze. "You know, due to the fact that He always shows up just in time to save them."
She heard Trunks begin to ask him a question before she raced up the stairs.
She heard small sobs from behind the door, Usagi's sobs. Pushing the door open, she stepped inside. Minako looked up.
"How could you say that?" she asked sharply, sadness for her friend shaking her voice.
"I don't know," Rei answered, kneeling next to Usa, "I'm sorry, I wasn't thinking and, and I'm an idiot just please, Usa, stop crying. Please?"
Usagi looked up, her tear filled blue eyes locking with Rei's pleading amethyst orbs.
"I'm sorry," Usagi whispered, "I shouldn't have broken down like that. It's just-I mean I love him. I always have, and now he's not here and," tears filled her eyes once more, "I just can't do it, I miss him and he just," she stopped as her voice choked off and she buried her face in her hands.
"Usa, come on pull yourself together," Minako said, hugging her gently.
Motoki's laughter echoed up the stairs.
Rei gasped, "Usagi, I have something to tell you!"
She looked up, her sniffles quieting to small whimpers, "What's wrong?"
Her tone was full of concern.
'Here she is, sobbing her heart out over losing the only one she's ever loved, and she's still concerned about us, about everyone else,' Rei thought, her eyes softening.
"It's Motoki," Rei began, "He, he knows about the senshi, about us."
"What?" the two blondes exclaimed in unison.
"How? Who told hi-?" Minako paused, "Oh, it must have been..."
"Mamo-chan," Usagi finished for her.
They nodded. Just then someone knocked on the door. Trunks poked his head in. When he saw Usagi he stepped into the room, shut the door, and walked quickly to her.
"Are you alright?" he asked sympathetically.
She nodded, wiping her eyes, "I'm fine."
He gave her a skeptical look.
"Really!" she exclaimed, casting him a shaky smile, "I'm okay."
His sky blue eyes narrowed but he nodded. He glanced around at the room before smiling.
"Who's gonna get this room?" he asked, the smile still in place.
"I think we're gonna stick Usa in here," Minako paused and looked up at him, "Why?"
He shrugged, "No reason."
Rei frowned at him, "Trunks," she warned.
"It's just that this is the only room with a Jacuzzi tub," he said nonchalantly.
He watched as three pairs of eyes widened.
Usagi managed a somewhat fake yawn, "I'm tired," she stated, eyeing him, "I think I'm gonna get ready for bed."
"Yeah," Minako jumped in, "And we're, um..."
"We're gonna help her with her hair!" Rei interrupted.
"Thanks," Minako muttered.
"No prob."
Trunks raised an eyebrow but turned to leave.
"Goodnight then."
"Good night!" the girls exclaimed.
As he shut the door, he heard muffled exclamations of glee as they rushed into the bathroom.
~*~*~*~*~
Usagi sighed as she sunk further into the bubbles.
"This," she said softly, "Is exactly what I needed."
She closed her eyes and took a deep breath. Suddenly she felt something on her face. Her eyes opened.
"Hey!" she exclaimed, "Who threw the bubbles?"
Minako and Rei exchanged guilty looks.
Rei lifted an arm, "It was her."
"Hey!" Minako whined, "Rei-chan, you weren't supposed to say anythi-!"
Her complaint was cut short by the mass of bubbles that landed on her face. Usagi giggled.
"I win!"
Rei attempted to stifle a laugh, "Minako-chan, you have a bubble beard," she managed before bursting into laughter.
Bubbles landed on her head and face and the bubble war began.
"I am so tired," Usagi said, leaning her head on Trunks' shoulder.
There were muffled groans of agreement from the rest of the group as they walked slowly down the road. The sun was setting and the first of the stars had begun to peek through the clouds.
