Are you alive? Minako said and poked usagi with her pencil.
I think, she mumbled. stretching in her seat almost falling out.
Jeez, why are you so tired? Minako pondered.
I was up till, She began stifling a yawn, 3:45 in the morning studying for midterms. Makoto, who was sitting there along with Usagi and Minako, Fell to the ground gawking at usagi like she had grown a third head.
Usagi's glazed tired eyes shifted to makoto.
3:45?! wow, Usagi's devoted! said Ami, who had been sitting nearby reading a book.
For Once! Makoto jeered.
Guys! quite it! you know i'm trying! and my grades are doing much better! you know on my last math test I got a 98.7? and on our first quarter report cards i got 3 A's and 2 B's. She protested.
Yeah, well. That won't matter if you fail the midterms. Minako said Smugly.
Yeah, and If I wasn't so drop-dead tired right now, you would be so dead. Minako glared at usagi for the comment and took her seat as the teacher came in.
Good Morning class. attendance. Zen!
a student called out.
Sendai.... jun....Ri.... Techyui....Aino.... The teacher rolled down the list of names. she waited for a reply.
Minako said poking her once more with her pencil.
Huh? oh Hai, I'm here. just barely awake... She mumbled. Some other students snickered.
Their teacher continued down the list.
Sen.... Rio...yoka.... Good everyone's here. Now if you will please open to your last nights homework. You had to write a poem. It could have been about anything you wanted it to be, But I was looking for creativity and uniqueness. Now will anyone like to share theirs?
Psst? hey usagi, Minako whispered from behind her. Can I borrow a pencil?
What happened to the one you were pocking me with? Usagi asked getting a bit agitated.
It dropped and rolled over to the door, can't get it.
She sighed and passed a pencil over her head.
Why thank you Tsukanno-san, You will be our first volunteer. Mrs.Augoya, Their teacher said with a smile.
But, I... wasn't... raising my... Hand... Usagi said but then sighed figuring that it was hopeless seeing her teacher sit there mindlessly, forcing a smile upon her face, waiting for usagi to start.
Hair of the darkest raven black,
shining in the moons's light.
Your eyes, stormy oceans,
swallowed me whole.
The touch of your warm lips,
soft and sweet.
Your voice, soft as silk,
sending chills down my spine.
The words spill from your mouth with ease like a flowing river.
fleeting through my memory, the sound of your laugh remains echoing in my head. She began reading her poem. Her heart was beating fast and she felt her cheeks flush. glancing around nervously she noticed some of her class mates, mainly the girls gazing off dreamily. Her teacher looked pleased as well.
But that's all I have, A memory.
and I await the day when
the Memory becomes real once more.
and I can see you again,
My ever real Endymion. She finished her poem as a tear managed to escape from the corner of her eye and slide down her face. A girl next to her started clapping. Then with her joined in a few others and soon the entire class was clapping.
arigoto Tsukanno-san, That was very Beautiful.
* * * * * * * * * * * * *
as soon as the class bell rang usagi dashed out the door followed by Minako.
Usagi-chan, Wait! Minako called out grabbing her by the arm. Here, It's ok. She said handing Usagi a tissue.
You miss him, huh? Usagi nodded.
Hey Usagi-san!! A girl with shoulder length brown hair came running up. I really liked your poem, It was so beautiful! huh? what's wrong why are you crying?
Well, you know what she said at the end of her poem? About the memories and stuff? well it's getting to her now, she really misses him. Minako explained.
Did your boyfriend dump you or something? the girl asked Usagi.
She mumbled. He went to America to study aboard for a couple years. WE talk on the phone and through e-mail and stuff, but I really miss him, She sniffed a few times wiping her red eyes.
Yeah, I can see why you are so upset. but atlas you know he'll come back to you someday, ne? She pointed out the ring on Usagi's finger. Usagi blushed and nodded.
That's so cool! well i'll see you later then! Said the brown haired girl and she ran off to her next class.
who was that? Minako asked.
Oh, that was Mimi gyoto. She's in my chourus class.
You are in chorus... Minako looked at her skeptically.
Yes, I am a very good singer you know. I used to take voice lessons when I was younger.
Yep. Huh? usagi looked up. she saw a figure standing in the window that looked very much like a sailor scout.
Hey minako! look! she said grabbing her friends arm and pointing at the window.
minako asked as she turned towards the window. but before minako could see the figure disappeared. Usagi-san, there's nothing there. are you feeling ok?
No, I mean yes. But i know there was something there! I saw something.
And you're delirious, c'mon.
