story and the main plot itself.
Rating: PG13 for language and suggestive themes.
Author's Notes: I've decided not to really stick the the original story I wrote. I've been re-writing parts of that I think were just totally left out. Having them act a bit more in character (hence why the first two chapters were so out of character). I think the story will have a lot more plot this way. The chapters will be longer and be more detailed.

Usagi grinned, resting her hands at her side. The door opened and Mamoru's face filled the gap.
"Oh," he smiled. "I thought you had to study tonight for the make-up exams."
Usagi grinned. "Nope! Didn't anyone tell you?" She weasled her way past him and flopped down on the couch.
"Hmm?" Mamoru asked, closing the door behind her. "Tell me what?"
"I passed! My score was only a few below Ami's! And okaasan checked, they didn't mix mine up with anyone else's," Usagi said, grinning.
Mamoru looked a bit purplexed. "Really?"
Usagi nodded.
He smirked a bit. "Maybe you just being around me makes you smarter, eh?"
Usagi stuck her tongue out at him. "Nu uh!" She grinned and got up, walking over to him.
He smiled, resting his hands on her waist. "So I'm guessing you want a celebration gift?"
"Sure!" she smirked, wrapping her arms around his shoulders.
They kissed, their lips softly meeting. His hands slowly wrapped around her waist, holding her closer, while her fingers ran through his hair.
"Oh, Mamo-chan..." she breathed quietly.
"Mmm... Usagi..." He was cut off from talking there by Usagi's cell phone.
"Ack!" Usagi dug her cell phone out of her purse. "It's Naru-chan... Hold on a sec," she said, winking at him.
"Moshi moshi?"
"Usagi! Hii!"
"Hi there, Naru-chan," Usagi smiled to herself, sitting back on the couch.
"I can't believe it! You passed with flying colours! And I just heard from Minako- you were accepted to a college in the U.S.?!"
Usagi giggled, giddy and happy now. "Yep! Papa says it's in California."
The conversation went on for a while. Finally, Usagi hung up. She looked over at Mamoru who was looking through his book-shelf, seeming to ignore her.
"What was that about California?" he asked, simply.
"Oh," Usagi gushed, "That's where I was accepted to college!"
"But that... that's in the states." Mamoru said, trying not to let too much emotion show in his voice.
Usagi caught on anyway. "Well..." she said uneasily. "It's a once in a life-time chance..."
Mamoru nodded and turned to her, smiling, but his eyes weren't happy. "I know. I don't mean to be selfish."
"Mamo-chan..."
"I'm ok. Just have fun there, ok?"
Usagi nodded slowly. "Are you angry at me?"
Mamoru smiled faintly. "No, Usako... I love you..."
Usagi smiled back, "I love you too, Mamo-chan!"

Usagi grabbed her suitcase, weighted down with her whole closet full of clothes. Rei, Makoto and Minako were also helping her carry suitcases. She'd send for the rest later. She turned and gave her suitcase to the flight attendant, then turned to her friends once more. "Ami... Makoto... Rei... Minako..." she smiled softly, tears filling her eyes. "Mamoru... I'll miss you all..." She hugged them each, starting with Ami. By the time she got to Rei she was crying. The other girls were too.
"Don't be such a baby, Usagi..." Rei sniffled, trying not to cry. "You'll make us all cry..."
Usagi hugged Rei again. "I'll miss you, Rei..." She turned to Mamoru, fresh tears sliding down her cheeks. "Mamo-chan... I'll miss you so much..." She clung to him tightly. "I'll write to you every day, I promise. And I'll call you once a week..."
Mamoru nodded and smiled, holding her tight. "It's time for you to go Usako..."
Usagi nodded and kissed him gently before turning to the plane. Once in the doorway of the plane, she turned and waved to all her friends.
"We'll miss you, ondogo atama!" Rei shouted out to her, tears finally escaping.

Author's Notes: Awww... So Usagi's finally goin' off to America. After a tearful goodbye, she boarded the plane... But what's gonna happen once she gets there? Is Usagi really fit for college?
