Chapter 2: Preparations for Saturday
Meanwhile at Usagi's house, Usagi was getting the place ready for Saturday's big plans. She didn't know why she wanted this day to be so special, she just did. Did she love Haruka? She had asked herself that same question a lot, but still came up with the same answer: Who knows? She cleaned with Saturday on her mind then finally she heard a knock at the door.
When she opened the door there stood a tall slender looking man with long black hair leaning on her door frame. "Um, Ohayo, Seiya! What brings you here?" Usagi asked through the crack in the door she left when she opened it.
"Ohayo, I was in the neighborhood and I was wondering if you wanted to go and get a bite to eat with me." Seiya replied answering her question rather quickly.
"Um, sorry, Seiya. I'm kinda busy at the moment, maybe some other time." Usagi suggested.
"Okay, some other time then. Ja ne!" Seiya said walking away casually. She watched Seiya walk away for a moment, then after a moment she continued getting the house ready for Saturday.
When Usagi walked into the kitchen, she looked into the cupboards and realized that she really didn't have anything to cook dinner with. "I really don't want to go to the store, now." Usagi groaned. "What happened to all the food?" Usagi wondered aloud then sweatdropped realizing that between her and Chibiusa, a person is more than likely to go to the store more then twice a month. Usagi grumbled to herself as she went to her room to get ready to go shopping for the items that she needed.
When in her room, she peered out of the window to see if the rain had calmed down. It had slowed to a gentle fall. "Why does it have to rain?" She said to herself as she was going into her closet to get her raincoat that was already soaked from the rain when she had been outside before. As she was putting on her socks and shoes, she heard the phone ring. Usagi rolled her eyes and got up slowly to answer it. "Moshi-moshi..." Usagi replied in a monotone voice as she was waiting patiently for the voice on the other line to reply.
"Usagi, is something wrong?" The voice on the other line questioned with concern.
"Oh, ohayo Minako, no I am just stressed, what is it?" Usagi asked wondering why her friend had called at such short notice.
"Oh! I have a question. Do you know where my hairbrush is?" Minako replied with a sense of hope to her voice.
"Um, no. You called over here when it was storming to ask where your hairbrush was. Did you check your bedroom on your dresser?" Usagi asked a little annoyed.
Minako sat in silence a while then replied, "Hold on, let me go check." Usagi waited patiently on the other line for a minute then realizing that she had someplace to go; she started to hang up the phone when she finally heard Minako say,"Yes! That's where it was!"
Usagi looked annoyed then replied, "Why did you call over here and randomly asked where your hairbrush was in the middle of a storm?"
"Oh, because you slept over here yesterday and I figured you would know where it was." Minako explained to the blonde haired girl on the other line.
Usagi sweat dropped. "Didn't you even look for it first?"
"Yes, for a little while then I decided to call you, well, Ja!" Minako hung up the phone without even waiting on Usagi to reply.
Usagi sat with the phone to her ear listening to the clicks signaling that Minako had hung up then sat the phone back down on it's stand. After a while of standing there in silence, she looked at her watch. "Oh! Che! I had better be getting going to the store before it closes!" Usagi exclaimed running out the house making sure she had her purse with her in her hands.
When Usagi made it to the store, there were only a few people in the isles. She looked around the store for spaghetti noodles, but she was having no luck. Finally she went up to an employee to ask where were the spaghetti noodles were. "Um, excuse me, can you tell me where I can find the spaghetti noodles?" Usagi questioned with a belief that she'll find the noodles now that she asked someone about it.
"Did you check isle five?" Asked the employee who seemed really tired from being at work all day on a day like this.
Usagi blinked. "Which way is isle five?" The employee pointed to the right of them with a half smile on her face. "Thanks." Usagi replied going off in the general direction that was pointed out to her by the tired employee.
When Usagi got to isle five she slowed down her walking to make sure she gets a closer look at the shelves. She picked up a small package of spaghetti noodles labeled Skinner Enriched Spaghetti and ran off happily to get the hamburger meat and spaghetti sauce.
She came to the isle that had the sauce in it and couldn't find out which one to get. Suddenly she heard an announcement over the intercom. "Thank you for shopping here, the store will be closing in thirty minutes, once again thank you for shopping!" The manager over the intercom announced.
"Che! I'd better hurry!" Usagi exclaimed grabbing the first can of spaghetti sauce and running to get to the meat freezer.
When she got there, she grabbed the family pack of ground beef and ran to the checkout counters.
When Usagi finished getting checked out she walked outside and she heard the manager say from inside the store, "The store is now closing, have a great night."
Usagi walked slowly back to her house thinking of how much fun she is going to have with Haruka Saturday night. She slowed down a little when she got to her street and thought aloud. "Did I do the right thing by just inviting Haruka? Haruka...the name just sticks to you after a while. Do I...love her? I don't know." She walked up the steps to her porch, still holding the thoughtful expression on her face. She opened the door and laid the small package she was holding in her hands by the entrance to close the door behind her. Usagi took off the small overcoat and laid it over the coat rack and bent down to pick up the package. She then went into the kitchen to start putting away the food so she can continue cleaning since tomorrow was Friday.
While putting away the items that she bought, the lights flickered. She looked up at the ceiling and narrowed her eyes. "Not now, I have to finish cleaning." She walked into to living room and turned the TV on to look at the news. Usagi sat down on the couch and rested her head on the arm of the couch and looked in the direction of the TV. "I hope the weather will calm down before Saturday." She thought to herself. Usagi wasn't really listening to the television; she had been to wrapped up in her thoughts. She cuddled into a ball on the couch and closed her eyes. "Haruka, do I love you? If I did would you love me back?" Usagi's breathing accelerated as she imagined Haruka holding her at that very moment. She wrapped her arms more around herself. She could swear that she heard the monotone voice of the tomboyish girl speak to her in her mind."Usagi...aishiteru!" Usagi moaned. "Haruka...I ...lov--" Usagi's thoughts were interrupted by the weather man on the TV.
"Severe thunderstorms approaching from the southwest and possible blackou--" At that point, the electricity went out. Usagi widened her eyes. She sat up and looked around. "That's just great. What's going to happen next?" Usagi got up from the couch to go and get some candles from her room. While she was walking into her room, she began thinking to herself. "That voice...was it...Haruka's?" Usagi felt herself start to fall and she reached out to catch herself before she fell all the way, she grabbed onto something and steadied herself. "Whoa, that was weird. I wonder what that was about." Usagi said aloud. She continued to walk towards her room feeling around for the walls so she wouldn't bump into anything.
When she finally made her way to her room, the lights came back on. She looked around and laid her arms at her side. "Yes! They're back on!" The blonde haired girl exclaimed as she raised her hands above her head in triumph. Suddenly the lights flickered and went off for only a second then came back on. "Heeeey!" Usagi protested to the flickering lights. She started to look around for the candles just in case the lights go off again. Inside her top dresser drawer she found a picture of her and the rest of the gang at the beach last summer. She then sweatdropped remembering that they got rained out and had to come home early. It was that vacation that she started having thoughts of loving Haruka. Her eyes got teary as she thought to herself, "That summer...the most romantic summer I've had in my life...Haruka...I can still feel those touches feeling every curve of my body...I lo--" The lights then flickered off leaving Usagi to drown in her thoughts.
