"Usagi-chan?"
"Huh?"
Usagi looked up to see Rei standing above her, hands on her waist.
"I've been calling you three times, pyro!" Rei said.
"Why are you so mean?" Usagi complained.
Rei sighed and ignored her question.
"So what's up?" Rei asked as she sat down next to Usagi.
"Nothing..."
"How are you and Mamoru-san doing?" Rei asked.
Usagi frowned, "I don't know... He still hasn't told me why he broke
up with me..."
"Don't worry," Rei said reassuringly, "You'll be together again..."
Usagi shook her head, "I've given up on that. I've decided to get over
him."
Rei's mouth opened in shock.
"I can do it!" Usagi exclaimed, "Don't be so surprised!"
Rei nodded, "All right, Usagi-chan. I believe in you."
"You do?" Usagi said incredulously.
Then she gasped.
Rei turned to see Mamoru walking into the arcade with a book under his
arm.
"Come on, Usagi-chan," Rei whispered under her breath, "This is your
chance to prove yourself!"
* You ordered a cup of coffee...
Dark rings under your eyes...
We're sitting so close together...
But it seems so far...

I quickly tried to turn my head away, but...
Too late...
My gaze caught his, and his eyes stared at me for half a second, dark
and tired, before looking away and heading to another table.
Be strong, Usagi-chan...
I faced Rei-chan and tried to pretend we were talking about something.
"He's looking, he's looking," she whispered.
"I don't _care_," I answered back.
"Oh, right..."
"Yes," I said, "I... I can be fine without him."
Rei-chan frowned, still unconvinced.
"I mean... I think I still like him... But if he doesn't like me...
then I'm not going to... keep pining over him."
Rei-chan nodded and smiled, "Good for you."

* Why did love's impression disappear so quickly?
I hear a loud yawn from you...
What does it all mean?
------@
"Shoot, Usagi-chan, I've got to go..."
"Rei-chan!" I pleaded, "I need you to help me with this!"
Rei sighed.
"Sorry, Usagi-chan, but I really have to book it. Ja ne!"
With that, I watched helplessly as she disappeared through the sliding
doors.
Sighing in defeat, I turned back to look at my drink, when I noticed a
pair of dark blue eyes gazing intensely into mine.
I blushed furiously and returned my eyes to my glass of clear fizzy
water.
Why was he staring at me?
And his expression...
So... fierce...
Be strong, Usagi-chan! You can resist him!
------@
* I ordered myself a glass of pure ice water.
Love, to you, is like caffeine...
After you take a sip...
All that's left on your lips is a dull taste...
------@
I placed my hands over the cool glass to calm myself down a bit.
Mamo-ch - I mean, Mamoru-san - is in the past.
Never liked him, never will.
Who cares about Tuxedo Kamen or Prince Endymion? I've got other people
coming for me...
Sweet, romantic, wonderful guys...
------@
* I took a sip of my icy water...
Letting its freshness sink in.
My happiness and I... we won't follow you anymore.
And I want to fly - because I'm free...
------@
A smile etched over my lips.
And realization finally dawned over me.
What was so good about Mamo-chan? Why did I even like him in the first
place?
I didn't need him at all! I was free now, and I could be with anyone
I want!
Suddenly feeling giddy, I slammed a five-dollar bill on the table and
waltzed out of the arcade, not even bothering to look at Mamo-ch -
arrugh! - Mamoru-san.
Out of the corner of my eye, I did see him frown and look at me
though... with worry?
Ugh, I didn't need his worry. I didn't need him to care...
Be strong, Usagi-chan!

"Usagi."
I gasped as I felt his hand grab my arm.
"Mam... Mamoru-san."
He winced when he heard me call him that.
"Usagi," he repeated, "We need to talk."
'Be strong, Usagi-chan!' I kept telling myself again and again.
"I'd rather not," I said simply, but deep down, I was shaking.
"Usagi..." he said, "I want to tell you why I broke up with you..."
'Stop it, Usagi-chan!' my mind screamed, 'Don't! Don't listen! It's
a trap!'
"I... I..." I stammered, "I don't think... we need to..."
"Usako," he pleaded, "Please..."
I stared at him, confused.
Did he just call me Usako?
'So what?' I heard, 'It's just a name! It's just a STUPID name!'
But, looking into his deep blue eyes...
I blushed.
And I nodded.
He didn't let go of my hand as we walked to the park.
Ugh... So close... I almost did it...
But I'll work on the independence thing another time...
Right now, I'm too busy getting Mamo-chan back.
Ja!
Author's Notes:
I know R season break-up 'fics have been numerous and overdone, but
I've never wrote one and felt like I owed it to myself. Anyway, I
hope this one was slightly different than the ones you've read.
Hope you enjoyed it. Please drop me a review if you did!
Thank you for reading.
