BETRAYED
Chapter 10
"It's a jewelry store Usagi. Nothing that special," he chuckled, watching her expressions.

"I heard of this place. It's really expensive cause you tell the people what and how you want your jewelry made, plus they let you watch them as they make it!" She exclaimed.

"Good morning Seiya," greeted a lady with short black hair, smiling. "What will it be today?"

"I'm here to pick up my order," said Seiya, pulling out his wallet and handing her a small receipt. "I came by yesterday and explained what I wanted and how it was to look. Is it done?"

"It sure is. Would you like to see it?"

"Yes I would, please."

Seiya turned to Usagi. "See any kind of design you like?"

"Huh?" Blinked the girl by his side.

"I promised I'd get you a necklace didn't I? Now, go to that red-haired lady over there, and tell her exactly what you want," smiled Seiya, leaving no room for modest objections. "I have to go inspect something. I'll be back in a minute."

She watched as he disappeared around a corner to the right.

"May I help you miss?" Asked the redhead. Usagi walked up to her and took a look at her nametag.

"Miaka?"

"That's me," smiled the lady.

"Well...umm...Is it alright if I just showed you a drawing of what I'd like?" Stuttered Usagi, obviously very nervous.

"Sure."

Usagi put her purse down on the counter and rummaged through it for a second before pulling out a piece of paper. She unfolded it and handed it to Miaka, mentally thanking Makoto for drawing it just the way she wanted it.

"Very interesting. So you want the chain to be made of stars, and then have little crescent moons dangling all around it?"

Usagi nodded.

"It's really pretty. Gold or Silver?" Asked Miaka.

"Err...Silver please..."

"Alright. Would you like to watch it being made?" The lady asked, taking another look at the drawing before handing it to the guy standing next to her.

"She sure would," smiled Seiya as he walked up behind Usagi, holding a little package in his right hand.

"Okay then, right this way please," said the guy, leading the way to a room in the back.
-Half An Hour Later-

"Wow!" Exclaimed Usagi, as she emerged from the tiny room at the back of the store with Seiya behind her. "I never thought about how jewelry was made. That was pretty awesome back there."

"I'm glad you liked it," smiled Seiya, leading the golden-haired girl to the front counter.

"Will that be all?" Asked Miaka, carefully placing the silver necklace in a small box and handing it to Usagi.

"Yes, that's all," replied Seiya, pulling out his wallet and sliding a credit card out of it. He swiped it through the machine and punched in his pin number, not seeming to care that Usagi was right next to him, very capable of seeing what buttons he hit.
#Flashback#
"Oh come on Mamo-chan! It's not like I'll run around telling everybody and anybody! Why don't you trust me?"

"It's not that I don't trust you. I'm just being extra careful. I mean, what if someone kidnapped you and tortured you until you told them the number?"

"That has a 0.0000001% chance of happening Mamoru!"

"Well it's still very possible," he snapped.

"You're right. But who's to say it can't happen to you?"

"Well first of all, I'm not a weak little girl, so it's less possible for a well-built guy such as myself to get kidnapped and beaten. Second of all, why the hell are you so set on getting my pin number?"
#Flashback Fades#
"Usagi...?"

"Huh?" Usagi looked up and blinked, the memory quickly fading into oblivion. They were now in the parking lot, standing by the convertible.

"What were you thinking just now?" Asked Seiya, tucking a strand of her hair behind her ear before moving his hand to her cheek, softly caressing it with the back of his fore/index finger.

"It was...just an unpleasant memory...But it doesn't matter now!" Smiled Usagi, hoping he wouldn't question her on it. "So! Where we going now ^_^?"

~Well it's obvious she doesn't want me pressing the matter...Probably something to do with that bastard...~

"Well...it's 11:48. Any specific place you want to go?" He asked, opening the passenger door for her.

"Uh...not really," replied Usagi, sliding into the car. Seiya shut the door and made his way around, not bothering to open his door as he jumped in and settled himself behind the wheel.

"Are you hungry? Cause I'm famished! You up for a burger?" He grinned, starting the car.

"Sure, why not," she smiled, turning to face forward.

Seiya's grin widened as he leaned over Usagi and pulled her seatbelt across, buckling it into place.

"I'm known to be a wreckless driver," he whispered huskily, kissing her softly on the cheek before pulling back and pretending as if nothing of the sort happened.

On the other hand, Usagi's heart skipped a beat and she couldn't keep from blushing.

~Damn him and his charms...And I thought I had mastered my blushes,~ she thought, cursing herself mentally for not being able to keep her blushing under control. ~Then again I can never control them around him...~ She snuck a glance at Seiya, who snuck a glance at her at the same exact time, causing both pair of eyes to lock on and both hearts to skip a beat.

~She's gorgeous damnit! With her soft hands resting on her lap and her long golden hair streaming behind her...It's hard to believe that anyone would want to harm such a cute, soft, delicate creature,~ thought Seiya, quickly snapping his head forward, pretending to concentrate on the road.
-29 Minutes Later-

"Usagi, what would you like? Cheese Burger? Chicken Supre--" Seiya turned to the girl next to him, only to find her fast asleep, leaning back against the seat, slowly slipping sideways.

Smiling, he unbuckled her seatbelt and carefully slid his right arm around her waist, pulling her towards him, her head resting on his shoulder. He then proceeded to pull the middle seatbelt over her and snap it into place.

Seiya ordered two meals hurriedly, and drove off, battling himself mentally in trying to figure out if he should take Usagi home, or bring her to his house.
!=Chibi Moment of Angel Seiya and Devil Seiya=!
"I say you be a gentleman and take her back to her house," said Angel Seiya, smoothing down his white robes.

"Don't listen to the faggot! He's wearing a dress for crying out loud!" Cried out Devil Seiya, taking a puff of his chibi-cigarette while he smoothed down his leather jacket. "Besides, what will her parents think if you brought her back home ASLEEP? So many things would pop into their heads about how you could have taken advantage of her and all. I say you take her home with you."

"No! What if they find out you took their beautiful daughter home with you while she was asleep? Worse things would pop into their heads then!"

"So you think she's beautiful, eh? I think the gay-ass here wants your girl, Seiya."

"Shut-up! You're the one who said she was 'damn sexy and twice as hot'!"

"Isn't 'shut-up' a forbidden word in your 'Learn To Act Like An Angel, For Stupid Angels' Book?" Smirked Devil Seiya, flicking his cigar out the window.
!=End Chibi Moment=!
Seiya had barely made up his mind to go ahead and drop her off home, no matter how much he wanted her to be with him, when she muttered something in her sleep.

"Leave me alone Shingo..."

Happy for the excuse, Seiya chuckled softly and kissed Usagi on the head, steering to the right instead of continuing straight to her house.
-11 Minutes Later-

Seiya pressed the button for the garage door, causing it to slowly shut. He pulled the keys out of the ignition and unbuckled his seatbelt along with Usagi's. She stirred slightly, half asleep yet half awake.

"Seiya?" She said groggily, opening her eyes halfway for a split second before closing them again.

Slipping his hands underneath her, he hoisted her up, grabbing the bag of food while he was at it. He shut the door with his hip, causing Usagi to open her eyes half way, yet again.

"Put me down...I...wanna walk," she whispered sleepily, suppressing a yawn.

Seiya reluctantly put her down, yet keeping his hand on her shoulder to help steady her. She wasn't fully awake as of yet.

Leading her towards the door that connected the garage with the house, he pushed it open and gently led her through and across to where his bedroom was, the door slightly ajar.

Climbing onto the bed, Usagi let her sandals fall off her feet and onto the floor as she slipped underneath the thin blankets, with Seiya's help.

"Thank...you..." her breathing took on a steady rhythm, as she slowly slipped back into deep sleep.

"I love you Usagi...I truly do..."

Usagi couldn't tell if the words were uttered in reality, or in the dream world. Same with the soft lips that brushed her own.
