Thank you to everyone who has reviewed this so far! Bunnybunny, thank you for telling me your honest opinion, and I hope you like this chapter better:) To anyone that hasn't figured it out, I'm making this whole story up as I go, and I don't know what will happen, how long it will be or how it will end (it will be happy, though, I promise). So any suggestions anyone has, I will definitely appreciate, because other peoples ideas may help prevent me from getting too much writers block. And I just looked through all the stories the way that you guys would read them, and I noticed that the symbols for when Usagi is thinking and flashbacks don't work! I'm mad! Her thoughts are supposed to be in tildes (the little swoosh thing that goes over the letter 'n' occasionally in Spanish) and asterices for the flashbacks. I'm soo sorry guys! I hope it hasn't been too confusing! Anywhoo...

Disclaimer: I do not own Sailor Moon. Do I really still have to tell you this?

.:.:blah:.:.-Usagi's thoughts

That night, Ami and Hoshi came over to Usagi's house to watch a movie and talk.

"You know, Usagi, maybe you're being a little harsh on guys for this. I mean, this was all a terrible thing that's happened to you, but if you decide to hate all men, that's extremely prejudiced. I wouldn't recommend it, because you and I both know that there are a lot of really nice, caring guys out there that would never think of doing anything so attrocious to any lady" Hoshi said when they were in Usagi's room.

"You know, she's right, Usagi. And I know that Mamoru was extremely hurt today when you ran from him and then slapped him when he was only trying to be nice. I think Mamoru cares for you more than you know. Have you thought that maybe you should see a psychiatrist about what happened? A psychiatrist could probably help you sort out your feelings" Ami added.

"Why are you guys telling me this? Don't you think I feel terrible about having to be mean to Mamoru? I hate it! But I don't know who to trust right now, and until I can figure it out, I need my space" Usagi replied.

"Well, maybe you should try talking to Mamoru. It may help you build your trust in him if you just talk to him a bit. So long as you want us, one of us can always be with you while you talk to him, if you like" Hoshi suggested.

"I don't know. For now, I just need a little time to get over it. Would that be alright? Just a couple weeks, maybe, when I can hopefully look back on it and not be terrified" Usagi pleaded.

"Okay, Usagi. We understand. Just tell us when, okay" Ami asked.

"Alright. Thanks guys. I'm starting to feel a little better now" Usagi said with a weak smile. Ami and Hoshi nodded and left.

Over at Rei's...

"Grandpa! The phone is ringing" Rei yelled. She had been taking a nice relaxing bubble bath and didn't want to be disturbed, but it didn't appear that the old man was anywhere around. grumbling she got out of the tub, wrapped a towel around herself, and went to answer the phone.

"Hello" she answered, sounding slightly miffed.

"Rei? Hey, this is Mamoru. Can I talk to you about Usagi? Please" Mamoru sounded stressed.

"About Usagi? Um, alright, I guess. What is it"

"Well, I was wondering if you knew why exactly she treated me like that today. Did I do something wrong that I didn't know about"

"Oh, that? Trust me, it's not your fault. Usagi had a run-in with some rough guys the other night, and she's pretty shaken up, but fortunately she wasn't hurt."

"Oh...my...gosh...it's all clicking now! Sorry, Rei, I gotta go. Thank you so much for the info, though! I really appreciate it" click.

"Gee, your welcome. Thanks for calling," Rei said sarcastically before getting back in the bath.

Okay, I know that was really really really really short, but that's because the next bit would be unusually long and so I'm gonna make it it's own chapter.
