Okay, here's the next bit. It's taken a long time for me to write because I started out writing a dream sequence with Endymion and Serenity, but then I completely deleted it when it would have been one of my longest chapters and still not done. I restarted this, and hopefully it's better.
Disclaimer: I do not own Sailor Moon. I've told you this several times!
Back at Usagi's that night...
"Luna, what should I do? I think that Ami and Hoshi are probably right. I overreacted about not trusting guys, and now Mamoru probably hates me for the way I treated him" Usagi's lower lip trembled at the thought of Mamoru thinking ill of her.
"Usagi, dear, you must believe that if he cares about you, he will forgive you. If he doesn't forgive you for something that simple, he obviously couldn't care too much" Luna reasoned wisely.
"I know, I know, it's just that" she was interrupted by the phone.
"Hello" she answered.
"Usagi, is that you" She could have jumped for joy at the voice on the other end.
"MAMO-(cough) I mean, Mamoru! Hello! Yes, this is Usagi" she beamed at the phone even though there was no way he could see her.
"Usagi, I need to speak to you. Are you busy right now"
"No, not at all, but it's a little late, isn't it"
"Yeah, probably, but the thing is" the doorbell rang.
"Hold on a sec, I have to get the door" Usagi covered the receiver and flew down the stairs. To her surprise, when she opened the door, there stood Mamoru.
"Mamoru! But how" she started, staring at the phone in her hand.
"I was talking to you on my cell phone, Odango" he smiled at her cluelessness, and she giggled at the once hated nickname. Oh, he doesn't hate me! she thought with delight (a/n-I'm not gonna use those stupid 'keys'. they annoy me and can't keep them straight). "Do you have somewhere where we can speak more privately" he questioned, peering over her head.
"Yes...we can sit in the garden! No one will hear us out there" she grinned happily at the thought of sitting with Mamoru among the beautiful, fragrant blossoms.
When they were situated on a wooden bench, Mamoru began.
"Look, Usagi, I have a confession to make"
"Wait, I need to say something, first" she interrupted. "Look, Mamoru, I know I was pretty harsh to you the other day, and I'd like to apologize. I had no right to behave the way I did. I was shaken up from an incident that occurred the night before, and the affects still hadn't worn off yet. But I'm better now, and I hope that you will forgive me. I never meant to offend or hurt you" She said.
"Forgive you? Oh! Don't worry, I was never mad at you in the first place! A little shocked and worried about you, but never angry. Now it's my turn to talk. What I have to say won't be easy for me, since I don't really know how to say it, but I will try my best. Usagi, I know you're"
"Help! Youma" Yet again, Mamoru was interrupted. But the sharp look of dismay that crossed Usagi's face in a flash didn't escape his notice.
"Let's go" he cried, standing up and offering her his hand. She looked surprised. "What, don't you want to go and help them? They're in trouble" Now it was his turn to look surprised at her. She gave him her hand, but also cast a strange look at him as he pulled her to her feet and dragged her behind him.
When they arrived on the scene, they saw the youma, a tall, glittering black beast with red eyes and teeth like razors. But that wasn't what shocked them most.
"Hoshi" Usagi cried when she saw the limp form in the beast's talon-like claws. Mamoru quickly spun her around.
"Transform, Usagi" he yelled, and, barely comprehending, she complied, in a mass of sparkling ribbons.
When she opened her eyes, Mamoru was gone, and Tuxedo Kamen was standing before her.
Okay, I dunno. What did you think? Am I redeeming myself for the terrible chapter 6? I hope that you like this one better! Please read and review! I've decided not to write more chapters until i get 5 reviews for the one that's out right now. Every time I reach 5, I will post another chapter. So when it says I have 22 reviews, there will be another chapter out shortly.
