Chapter 6
Hearing Usagi scream like that, made Seiya's heart skip a beat. He whipped around and dashed to the right, stopping only to try and get his eyes to adjust to the darkness of the alley.
"No! Get away from me!!! Leave me alone!"
Seiya ran forward and finally spotted the three guys and Usagi in a corner. The biggest one grabbed her by the shoulders and threw her to the floor.
"Get away from her!" Yelled Seiya, advancing on the guys.
"Take care of him you two," the big guy smirked, unbuckling his belt. "I'll take care of this little missie here."
The first guy ran up to Seiya, who punched him in the face and grabbed him by the shirt, tossing him aside like a rag doll. The second guy came charging, and attempted to kick him in the stomach. But Seiya was too fast, and ended up grabbing a hold of the guys leg, tossing him backwards. His head hit the concrete floor, and he was knocked out cold.
"Get the hell away from her," sneered Seiya, advancing on the last guy, who was in the middle of unbuttoning Usagi's jeans.
The guy stood up straight and turned to face Seiya.
"You better get out of here before I beat you into the ground," the big guy spat, cracking his knuckles. In a blink of an eye, Seiya had the thug up against the wall, a foot off the ground.
"What were you saying?" He asked, repeatedly punching the dirtbag in the stomach with his free hand. He then threw him aside and dashed over to Usagi.
"Usagi. Usagi!" He whispered, gently shaking her by the shoulders.
~She must have passed out form all the commotion. Poor girl...She's going through too much at once...~ He thought, checking her head for blood or a bump, indicating that she hit the stone that was only inches away.
~Thank god~ he sighed, picking her up. He carried her all the way to his house, steadying his leg up against the wall next to the front door and awkwardly sitting her on it, freeing one of his hands in order to reach in his pockets and pull out the keys. He unlocked the door and flung it open.
Getting a proper hold on Usagi, he stepped in, shut the door with his foot and walked over to his room. He gently placed her on his bed and covered her with the thin blanket. He stood there staring at her for a couple of minutes before bending down and kissing her on the forehead. He then turned and walked out of the room, closing the door behind him.
-Meanwhile, At Usagi's House-
"Argh! Where could she be?" Yelled a very frustrated Minako. "We've rang the bell, knocked and banged on the door for god knows HOW LONG. We called her on the phone and even screamed her name out countless of times."
"Hey wait a second," said Rei, looking at the other three girls. "Didn't Usagi say that she always kept an extra key under the welcome mat, in the torn seam at the bottom just incase she lost or forgot the other key?"
"Yeah!" Exclaimed Ami, bending down and flipping the welcome mat over. She turned on the little flashlight on her keychain, and looked for the torn area of the mat. Finding it, she slipped a finger in and slid it out, grabbing a hold of the key.
"Here it is!" She exclaimed once again, holding it up. She turned back to the door and slipped it in. She turned it to the left and heard something click. Pulling out the key, she twisted the door knob and pushed forward. The door opened and all four girls walked in, yelling for Usagi. Makoto and Rei ran upstairs to search while Ami and Minako did the same for the downstairs.
"She's not up here," yelled Makoto, racing back downstairs with Rei behind her.
"Ditto," said Minako, coming into the livingroom with Ami beside her. They all sat down and looked at eachother.
"Well since she's not home...maybe Seiya took her somewhere to eat or something of the sort," offered Ami.
"Ya you're most likely right. We might as well stay here and wait for her to get back," said Minako looking up.
At the same time Makoto's stomach growled/grumbled. "And maybe we can order some food while we're at it," she said.
Rei stood up. "I think that's a good idea!" She piped, heading for the phone. "The only place that would be open this late at night would be that Pizza place near the bus station," she informed, flipping through the Phone Book that was laying next to the phone.
-The Next Morning, At Seiya's House-
Usagi sat up in bed, rubbing her eyes. She looked around, taking in her surroundings.
~What am I doing here? Where's Seiya? What the heck happened last night?~ She wondered. ~All I remember is...Seiya took me to the concert...and then we were walking home...and then---~ Her thoughts were interrupted by a knock on the door.
"Uhh...come in," she called out unsurely. Seiya opened the door and walked in, balancing a tray on one hand.
"Good morning Usagi," he smiled, walking over to the bed. "I made you some breakfast," he said, setting the tray on her lap. He then got on the bed and layed down next to her, propping his elbow up on the second pillow, his head resting in his hand.
~God she's so beautiful,~ he thought, staring up at her, smiling.
"Arigato," whispered Usagi.
#Flashback#
Mamoru came back into the room with a tray of food. He handed it to Usagi and slid onto the bed next to her. She smiled up at him.
"Thank you Mamo-chan," she said, tearing a small piece of the bread off, ready to dig in. But before she could grab some eggs off the plate, Mamoru laughed and slid the tray off her lap and onto his.
"Silly girl. I didn't make this for you, I made it for me," he said, grabbing the piece of bread from her hand and began eating.
#End Flashback#
"No problem. So how're you feeling?" Asked Seiya, bringing her back to the present.
"My head kinda hurts. But that's all," she replied. "Umm...do you want some?" She asked, looking down at the plate of food. Seiya shook his head.
"I made it specifically for you," he smiled, his eyes seeming to twinkle. Usagi began to eat, but stopped after a couple of bites. She turned to Seiya.
"What exactly happened last night?" she asked. Sighing, the hunk next to her sat up, and explained what had taken place the night before.
"...and so I placed you on my bed and slept on the couch." He finished. Usagi popped the last bit of food in her mouth, and chewed absentmindedly, her mind still trying to process everything she was just told.
"Y-you mean I was...nearly...r-raped?" She stuttered. Seiya took the tray from her lap and put it on the nightstand, nodding.
"But...I...I don't remember anything...All I remember is us walking...I was in the middle of saying something but then I was cut off and jerked back...and that's all..." She whispered, shuddering. Seiya moved closer to her and wrapped an arm around her shoulder.
"I guess, in a way, it's good that you don't remember. No girl should have to go through that. But you're safe now and that's all that matters," he said, smiling reassuringly. Usagi closed her eyes and smiled, snuggling up closer to him.
"So you wanna do something today?" He asked, gently stroking her hair.
~You've been so nice and sweet to me Seiya. You've done so much,~ thought Usagi, slowly opening her eyes. ~It's time I did something for you.~
"I was wondering," she began, looking up at him. "If you would like to come over to my house for dinner tonight?"
"Sure," he replied, smiling warmly. "I would love to," he whispered, kissing her on the cheek. Usagi blushed and quickly got up, throwing the blanket off of her.
"Umm...well...do you think you can take me home? I need to get everything ready, I want it all to be perfect," she exclaimed, obviously excited. Seiya chuckled and got up as well.
"Sure. But do you have to leave now?" He asked, walking up to her.
"Well, I want everything to go right...but if you'd rather take me later then that's okay," she replied. But judging from her tone, Seiya knew she would rather go right then.
-At Usagi's House-
Minako's cell phone rang, waking all four girls up.
"Hello," yawned the golden-haired girl.
"Minako! What the hell do you think you're playing at!!! You never came back to your hotel room like you were supposed to," her manager yelled on the other end of the line. Minako sighed in disgust and hung up.
All four stretched and yawned, rubbing their eyes.
"Hey. Usagi never came home did she?" asked Rei, looking around. Makoto shook her head.
"Well she better get here soon cause I'm starting to get really worried," exclaimed Minako, getting up. As soon as the words were out of her mouth, the front door burst open.
"Arigato Seiya!" Yelled Usagi, waving from the front door. "I'll call you and tell you when to come by. Thanks for everything!" She watched as Seiya zoomed off, then shut the door and sighed, smiling. She turned around, ready to walk to her room.
"Hey! How did you all get in here?" Asked Usagi grinning at her friends. They all stared at her, confused. Ami was the first to speak up.
"Well the key under the mat, remember?"
Usagi laughed and walked over to the couch, sitting in between Makoto and Rei. "Oh right...I forgot I even had it there."
~It's been a long time since she's laughed like that,~ thought Rei.
"Usagi," began Makoto. "What's going on?"
Usagi smiled at the green-eyed girl. "What do you mean?"
Minako sighed and sat down next to Rei.
"What happened with you and Mamoru?" She asked. Usagi's face fell and she looked down at her hands. She launched into the whole story and explained every single thing in detail, tears forming in her eyes. When she finished talking, she burst into tears.
The four girls crowded around and got into a big group hug, telling her it's alright and that Mamoru was a "bastard who deserved to die a horrible death", among other things. Then they began asking questions about Seiya and how she felt about him. She wiped her tears away and blushed.
They continued to talk for about 2 more hours when Minako's cell phone rang again. She didn't bother picking it up, and instead turned it off. The little distraction made Usagi glance at the clock.
"Oh my god it's 4:37! I need to hurry up and get everything done," she exclaimed, jumping up. The four girls also stood up, confused.
"Uh...Usagi? Are you feeling alright?! Since when do you have the urge to get up and clean?" Asked Rei, puzzled.
~Oh I forgot to mention the fact that I invited Seiya over for dinner,~ she thought, turning to her friends, fighting hard to keep a blush from creeping up onto her face. She failed miserably.
"Oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooohhh! I know," said Makoto, grinning. "Seiya must be coming over, ne?" She asked, her grin widening.
"Umm...kinda," stuttered Usagi, her blush deepening.
-Around 6:30-
"Thanks again all of you! And thanks for cooking Makoto. It smells great!!!" Yelled Usagi, waving at her friends who had just hopped into Minako's limo.
"No problem! Just remember, we want to know EVERYTHING," giggled Minako, as she rolled up the window. The limo drove off and Usagi shut the door.
~Everything has to go perfectly,~ she thought, picking up the phone and dialing Seiya's number. He finally picked up after the fifth ring.
"Hey! Uh, just wanted to let you know that everything's ready," said Usagi, her heart pounding.
"Great! I'll be over in about 10-20 minutes," he said. She could almost hear his smile, which made her smile.
"Okay," she replied, softly. "I'll be waiting." She hung up the phone and sighed happily. She then looked down and realised that she still had the same clothes on.
~That's what I forgot!~ she thought, snapping her fingers. She ran upstairs and got into the shower.
-15 Minutes Later-
*Ding dong*
~Oh no! He's already here and I'm not completely dressed,~ panicked Usagi as she raced to her closet.
"Hold on!!" She called out, looking through the clothes. She noticed a white tank top towards the back and grabbed it. She quickly put it on and walked towards her dresser. She opened one of the drawers and pulled out a black mini skirt. She slipped the skirt on and dashed downstairs, throwing the door open.
"Hey," she smiled, panting a bit. "Come on in and make yourself at home. Just gimme a minute to fix my hair," she stepped aside and let him in, shutting the door behind him. He smiled down at her and shook his head.
"You look stunning just the way you are," he replied, handing her a dozen of red and white roses. And for the first time, they didn't remind her of Mamoru.
"You didn't have to get me anything," she said smelling the roses. She looked up at him and smiled. "Domo arigato."
She walked to the kitchen and put the roses on a counter while she pulled out a vase from one of the cupboards and filled it with water. She placed the roses in it and set them in the middle. Seiya walked in after her.
"Would you like something to drink?" She asked, pulling the fridge open.
"Do you have any grape soda?" he asked.
Usagi pulled out a big bottle and set it on the counter. He watched as she shut the fridge and opened a cupboard, taking one of the many glass cups that were lined up neatly. She poured some into the cup and handed it to Seiya.
"Thank you," he said, taking a sip, his eyes still on Usagi.
"You're welcome," she replied, putting the bottle back in the fridge. She turned back to face him and gasped.
"Seiya...Are you alright? You spilled some soda all over your white shirt," exclaimed Usagi, grabbing some paper towels from nearby and dabbing at his shirt.
Seiya laughed sheepishly. "I guess I wasn't paying attention," he said, a bit embarrassed.
~I need to focus,~ he thought. ~But she's so beautiful...~
"I don't think that's good. Grape soda stains very quickly," explained Usagi. "Why don't you take it off so I can wash it for you."
Seiya shrugged. "If you say so," he said, unbuttoning his shirt. He pulled it off and tried handing it to her, but she seemed oblivious to the fact that he was holding it out infront of her.
~His skin looks so soft...so...flawless...I wonder how it feels,~ she thought, lifting her hand to his chest.
"Uh Usagi...Are you alright?" Asked Seiya, snapping her out of her trance-like state. She blushed and quickly retreated her hand.
"I guess I should put this in the washer now," she said, grabbing the shirt and quickly walking off, hoping he hadn't noticed her blush.
Seiya stood there and thought back to what had just happened a few moments ago. He blushed slightly at the fact that she had touched him so tenderly. But before he could think any further, the door bell rang.
*Ding dong*
"Seiya, do you think you can get that?" Called Usagi. Hearing her say his name made his heart skip a beat, although he wasn't entirely sure why.
"Sure," he called back out and walked towards the door. He pulled it open and came face to face with...

luckyducky7too: Let me explain the ring thing...Seiya sent it (the ring) through the mail for Usagi's 16th birthday. Mamoru just happened to be at her house and heard the mail man outside so offered to go get the mail for her. Like the cheap bastard he is (gomen Mamoru fans), he stole the ring and decided to pretend he got it for her and proposed to her with it. I was going to make a whole flashback thing of this but I didn't think it necessary...And how does she know Seiya in the first place? Well Seiya is in the actual Sailor Moon series in Season 5 (not shown in America). But this is a quick summary like thing of my story: The first time Mamoru leaves to America, Seiya and Usagi meet. Then Seiya leaves cause he has things to do with his Music career and all. Then Mamoru comes back from America. Then he leaves again to America a year later. He comes back after a year in America, but he comes back with that girl. Seiya just happens to come back from Korea on the same day. Do you get it now? I hope so.

~Everything has to go perfectly,~ she thought, picking up the phone and dialing Seiya's number. He finally picked up after the fifth ring.
"Hey! Uh, just wanted to let you know that everything's ready," said Usagi, her heart pounding.
"Great! I'll be over in about 10-20 minutes," he said. She could almost hear his smile, which made her smile.
"Okay," she replied, softly. "I'll be waiting." She hung up the phone and sighed happily. She then looked down and realised that she still had the same clothes on.
~That's what I forgot!~ she thought, snapping her fingers. She ran upstairs and got into the shower.
-15 Minutes Later-
*Ding dong*
~Oh no! He's already here and I'm not completely dressed,~ panicked Usagi as she raced to her closet.
"Hold on!!" She called out, looking through the clothes. She noticed a white tank top towards the back and grabbed it. She quickly put it on and walked towards her dresser. She opened one of the drawers and pulled out a black mini skirt. She slipped the skirt on and dashed downstairs, throwing the door open.
"Hey," she smiled, panting a bit. "Come on in and make yourself at home. Just gimme a minute to fix my hair," she stepped aside and let him in, shutting the door behind him. He smiled down at her and shook his head.
"You look stunning just the way you are," he replied, handing her a dozen of red and white roses. And for the first time, they didn't remind her of Mamoru.
"You didn't have to get me anything," she said smelling the roses. She looked up at him and smiled. "Domo arigato."
She walked to the kitchen and put the roses on a counter while she pulled out a vase from one of the cupboards and filled it with water. She placed the roses in it and set them in the middle. Seiya walked in after her.
"Would you like something to drink?" She asked, pulling the fridge open.
"Do you have any grape soda?" he asked.
Usagi pulled out a big bottle and set it on the counter. He watched as she shut the fridge and opened a cupboard, taking one of the many glass cups that were lined up neatly. She poured some into the cup and handed it to Seiya.
"Thank you," he said, taking a sip, his eyes still on Usagi.
"You're welcome," she replied, putting the bottle back in the fridge. She turned back to face him and gasped.
"Seiya...Are you alright? You spilled some soda all over your white shirt," exclaimed Usagi, grabbing some paper towels from nearby and dabbing at his shirt.
Seiya laughed sheepishly. "I guess I wasn't paying attention," he said, a bit embarrassed.
~I need to focus,~ he thought. ~But she's so beautiful...~
"I don't think that's good. Grape soda stains very quickly," explained Usagi. "Why don't you take it off so I can wash it for you."
Seiya shrugged. "If you say so," he said, unbuttoning his shirt. He pulled it off and tried handing it to her, but she seemed oblivious to the fact that he was holding it out infront of her.
~His skin looks so soft...so...flawless...I wonder how it feels,~ she thought, lifting her hand to his chest.
"Uh Usagi...Are you alright?" Asked Seiya, snapping her out of her trance-like state. She blushed and quickly retreated her hand.
"I guess I should put this in the washer now," she said, grabbing the shirt and quickly walking off, hoping he hadn't noticed her blush.
Seiya stood there and thought back to what had just happened a few moments ago. He blushed slightly at the fact that she had touched him so tenderly. But before he could think any further, the door bell rang.
*Ding dong*
"Seiya, do you think you can get that?" Called Usagi. Hearing her say his name made his heart skip a beat, although he wasn't entirely sure why.
"Sure," he called back out and walked towards the door. He pulled it open and came face to face with...

Rinoa Leonhart: First of all, is my nickname Usagi? No it isn't, it's yours. Meaning I picked your favorite characters. And about the SM videos I'm trying to make time to watch 'em but with me onichan always watching TV or playing video games, it's kinda impossible. And I updated DT so now it's your turn ^^! And yes I know...I always have to have at least one cliffy in all my stories...it's in my blood...I can't fight it...

To the no name reviewer: Uuhhh...the purpose of a cliffhanger IS to keep you hanging! I just didn't expect to update so late. Hope you liked it, although it's another cliffy ^^;;
Aqua Rhapsody: I agree with you! YAY! Usa/Seiya FOREVER!
Usagi Kou: Thanx for the review!!! I never thought of Andrew+Usagi...I don't think...well maybe...hhmmmm...
Rini: Why didn't Usagi go backstage? Well, she didn't know that Minako was going to be at the concert. And when she found out, she realised she didn't have her VIP pass thing. I didn't want to write a scene where she tries to get by the guards or anything cause I didn't find it necessary. OI hope this fully answers your question. BTW: Patience is a virtue
To the 2nd no name reviewer: Dunno why you didn't put a name but whatever...thanx for the compliment...

luckyducky7too: Let me explain the ring thing...Seiya sent it (the ring) through the mail for Usagi's 16th birthday. Mamoru just happened to be at her house and heard the mail man outside so offered to go get the mail for her. Like the cheap bastard he is (gomen Mamoru fans), he stole the ring and decided to pretend he got it for her and proposed to her with it. I was going to make a whole flashback thing of this but I didn't think it necessary...And how does she know Seiya in the first place? Well Seiya is in the actual Sailor Moon series in Season 5 (not shown in America). But this is a quick summary like thing of my story: The first time Mamoru leaves to America, Seiya and Usagi meet. Then Seiya leaves cause he has things to do with his Music career and all. Then Mamoru comes back from America. Then he leaves again to America a year later. He comes back after a year in America, but he comes back with that girl. Seiya just happens to come back from Korea on the same day. Do you get it now? I hope so.
Moon Mistress: Hehehehehe thanx a bunch ^.^
