Eyes of the Beholder
Chapter 1- In A Child's Eye
It was mid winter and the snow packed season had begun to take its coarse. Night after night it blanketed Tokyo in sheets after sheets of white snow. The laughter echoing through the quiet streets as people began to stir from there slumber. Morning's light began to rise, spreading its warmth upon this chilled city. The light led its way through the glass window, gliding through and spreading light to whatever stands within its path.
The light finally landed on a small heap that was covered by a thick comforter. A knock was suddenly heard and in came four girls. Even at such a young age their beauty was enchanting. "Usagi? Are you awake" The voice was soft and sweet, and those words described her to a point. Her short blue locks framed her pale face, with deep blue eyes that peered at the others questioningly. The young girl next to her gave a huff of frustration. Her small delicate hands pushed away the few stray pieces of black from her face, revealing those devilish purple tinted orbs of hers.
"Maybe we should leave, Usagi must be tired…"
It was a young girl with honey blonde hair and light blue eyes that spoke. Her smile grew into a grin as she watched the small pile shift.
"Don't be too foolish Minako! Usagi's a lazy bum, and I'm certainly not going to let her get away this time."
The raven-haired girl was in absolute rage as she tried to convince the blonde to stay. "Rei, don't get hostile. I'm sure that Usagi will wake up in her own time" It was the voice of reasoning, Makoto. Her long, shoulder length brown locks was neatly tied in a high ponytail, which matched divinely with her pools of deep forest green.
"Will you four quiet down? Some of us are trying to sleep."
The voice was muffled but you could hear every word quiet clearly. Minako smirked as she watched the lump fumble onto the floor. None of them bothered to help considering they knew her better then that. Tangled in the depths of the covers a whimpering sound was heard. "Aren't you guys going to help?" She asked, but they all stood there laughing away. Finally she was able to untangle herself, and the white sheets fell to reveal a young a girl at the age of eight.
She looked quiet different from the four giggling girls in front of her. Her dirty blonde hair was quiet short. From behind you could actually mistaken her as a boy! Her blue orbs looked tired and musty. Not the clear and light blue like Ami's or Minako's, but a pale, stony blue. There was one thing about this girl that could get you smiling. It was her smile. She would smile, no matter what others thought. A wide grinning grace that appeared pleasing to others—
"Finally! Took you long enough!"
"Well, I'm sorry! I didn't know that you guys were just going to barge in like that!"
"We told you yesterday! Don't you remember?!"
"O yeah…I forgot"
Chuckling softly to herself, Usagi pulled on a pair of jeans and slipped into a T-shirt. Not bothering to brush her hair she ran into the bathroom to brush her teeth. The others' sat patiently for their friend to finish.
"Did you know that Mamoru and I are going out!"
"Yes, yes for the hundredth time YES!!!"
"Tell us again Rei…"
"Minako! NO!!"
It was in that instant that dear Rei started to get that dreamy look as retold her little story. "O it was so romantic… I knew that he always liked me but I've never really would've thought that he would ask me so soon! Anyways it was a perfect morning. Snowy like--"
Rei's voice drowned out as Usagi stared numbly at the bathroom mirror, listening carefully to what Rei was saying caused her stomach to churn. She detested those boys', every single one of them! Mamoru, Seiya, Yaten and Andrew— They each had a quality that she liked, but then again they all had something that she hated. They never liked her…no mater how hard she tried. In the beginning everything was ok, she wasn't there friend, they weren't her's. Then things changed, and it humored them to see her suffer. Maybe it was just imaginations on how things were, but she can't forget—
"Not now…not ever"
Usagi's voice was low and menacing, but it wasn't as if anyone was paying attention. Throwing the brush to the side she closed her eyes, all the while trying to regain herself. 'Now is not the time' She reasoned.
"I had my first kissed then…it was strange having someone's lips on my own— But I loved every second of it. It was light, but meant the world to me."
Rei ended her story with that, her eyes still dreamy. In the bathroom Usagi coughed lightly in disbelief as she sneered.
"Stop with that story Rei! I've heard it so many times now I think I'm going to go mad!" Usagi said mockingly as she reentered the room. The others' looked up and smiled, well all except Rei whom growled.
"You're just jealous." She stated simple.
"Jealous? Of you! I'm shocked that you would even think I could fall for that lowlife. I have my dignity."
Rei glared at the young blonde as she stomped her way out of the room. Usagi only giggled as she watched one of her best friends leaving in a mad fit! 'I still got it' She thought.
The five made their way to the crown, but what was there made Usagi see red… Sitting at a booth in the far corner were four certain boys.
"Mamoru!!" Rei practically screeched out.
She ran to him like some fairytale, with a prince and a princess. With the exception that Rei wasn't running to a Prince in Usagi's eyes, but some lonesome toad. They hugged and kissed, it was hard to imagine that they were either only eight or turning nine. At the booth sat a raven haired, blue eyed gorgeous being. Another had silver stands that covered his jade pools in a seductive manner, and a personality that fitted a prince. Next to him was a male angel with light blonde strands and crystal blue eyes. The last one was just like the first…raven haired and gorgeous blue eyes, the only difference was hair length—
"Too bad there personalities don't fit their appearance…" Usagi murmured out.
No one heard— of course.
Usagi pretended to vomit as there lips caressed one another. "Need a bucket Meatball Head?" Mamoru asked jokingly as he pulled Rei onto his lap. The girls began to file into the seats, so Usagi was forced to follow. "Hey Ami" Seiya said charmingly as he gave the young girl a wink, and in return Ami burned a deep shade of red, all the while trying to avoided his eyes so she ordering a strawberry shake instead. The flirting that was going on at this table was making Usagi feel sick.
"Want a lick?"
"Yeah, sure."
"…"
"It's good!"
"I know because now the taste of your lips are on it…"
Makoto was redder then Ami, if that was even possible! Minako sat there waiting for Yaten expectantly. "What?" He shouted out as she flutter her eyelashes. "You should see the doctor about that Minako…" He said worriedly. That reply only got him a growl.
This continued for quite awhile. Usagi sat there as green as ever, watching the eight of them flirt back and forth. It was Rei and Mamoru, then Minako and Seiya, Ami and Seiya, Yaten and—
It was driving her mad!
"You look a little green Odango."
"Ya jealous?"
"I am NOT Rei! You all are just making me sick!" Usagi said tiredly as she grabbed a hold of her stomach. "I mean come on! Stop it with all those cheesy lines."
"Well we have a date tonight…"
"Yep all eight of us"
Usagi sat there a little surprise. That statement came out so unexpectedly. 'I had no idea they were all going out!' Their eyes looked at her expectantly, as if waiting for her to do something. 'Leave' her mind told her. She got up with a sigh as her smile was forced back onto her face. "Well I have to be going. Have fun! Bye guys! Called me!" Her voice was cheery and didn't slip a thing, as she left the 'byes' were heard behind her.
The door closed to the crown the laughter from inside echoed loudly—
...
(Flashback)
"Guys! Give it back!"
There taunting faces were staring down at her. Mud covered her new dress, ruining it beyond repair. "Come on Meatball Head! Stand up!" It wasn't a gesture of encouragement, but more as an order. Tears flooded her eyes as she sunk lower into the ground. Rain clouds appeared splattering little drops of water here and there.
"Don't be such a big baby!"
This only cause her cries to lengthen. Her vision became blurred as they tried to shush her, but it only made matters worse.
"You know people don't like cry babies."
"Yeah. You say you're a lady! So act like one!"
The rain came down harder, and faster as Usagi watched in fear as they left her alone. She didn't need them, but she was afraid. She sat there as the heavens cried out. Suddenly it stopped raining, or that was what she thought. Looking up her eyes met a pair of icy blue ones.
"You shouldn't be out in a storm like this."
He seemed to tower over her, but his kind words and kind smile sent warmth through her heart. "I-I" She stuttered out. Stopping suddenly she took noticed that his umbrella only covered her. The rain hitting against his white shirt, soaking him gently, but that smile was still there—
"You're getting wet!"
"That's alright. I'm strong I can take it"
As she stood up she notice that he wasn't much taller… Gently she pushed the umbrella in his hand slightly to the right.
"See, now we're both dry…"
"What's your name?"
"Usagi."
"Usagi…a very pretty name. Do you need help getting home?"
"Yes please."
"…"
"And what is your name?"
(End of Flashbacks)
...
Usagi shook her head gently and she made her way home. "You promise that you'd never leave me..."
