Chapter 5- Caught.

Disclaimer: I don't own Sailor Moon or any of its characters. (And this goes for the previous chapters if I forgot to put it on SO PLEASE DON"T SUE ME!)

There was thumping and yelling in the background but, still dazed from sleep, Mamoru didn't notice. He yawned and stretched. Letting his head fall back onto the pillow, he wondered when was the last time he had slept this well.

He felt the warmth of Usagi, and he turned on his side and watched her sleep. A smile crept across his face. She looked so peaceful whilst she slept. He wanted to know what she was dreaming about. He had never seen her sleeping before but he wanted to see her crystal blue eyes. He leant in and kissed her. He felt her smile against his lips and applied more pressure before pulling away.

"Morning," he whispered.

Her eyes open slightly as she moaned, sleep still clinging to her. She smiled and groaned something in-between an 'ugh' and a morning.

"Did you have…" he was cut off by someone barging into the room. Usagi jumped up, somehow battle instincts had been kicked in by the door banging against the wall. All her senses kicked in.

"I'm going to KILL YOU!" Kenji yelled, pointing an accusing finger at Mamoru.

Usagi's eyes went wide, and she looked at Mamoru who was sitting on the bed. She just stared at her father, debating what exactly she should do. The adrenaline was rushing in her head, but it wasn't giving her any thinking capability.

The two sat up to see Kenji, who was red in the face with rage; Ikuko who seemed extremely calm and had a small smile on her face. Then there was Luna. Usagi wasn't exactly sure if she wanted to face her father or her now possessed looking kitty. Neither she nor Mamoru had ever seen her this angry. If Luna had had the power to kill with looks, she would have levelled the whole block and Saturn would have been amazed. -.

"How dare you! How DARE you sleep with my daughter!" Kenji yelled. His fists were by his side trembling in rage.

Luna started stalking forwards and leapt at Mamoru, baring her claws.

"Luna! It's not what it looks like!" he defended, but Luna didn't listen. Usagi grabbed Luna by her midsection so she couldn't claw at her, and pulled her to look at her. At least her father was just glaring at the moment.

Usagi grabbed Luna and pulled her back.

"Luna. Will. You. Just. Listen," she said, trying to contain her.

"Luna… OOOOOWWWW!" Usagi dropped Luna onto the floor and clutched her arm to her pyjama shirt, which had a small scratch on it. Luna did a kitty 'huff' with a small graceful pivot and a twitching tail. Usagi's head was spinning, everything was to much. She felt sick to her stomach and there was so much emotion just all over this room. She wanted out. But getting out meant going through the door.

She hopped off the bed and tried to run out anyway.

Kenji grabbed her by the shoulders. She flinched, panic running through her body. The touch repulsive. Kenji was screaming about something, but it wasn't registering in her head. She sputtered for a second, and screamed

"Stay away from me!" Usagi yelled, stepping back away from Kenji Her parents took a step towards her. "The three of you, stay away from me!" she yelled again. She skirted her father and ran out of the room. Mamoru got around somehow, he wasn't sure. Ikuko grabbed Kenji's arm, and gave him a look and let them go.

He walked into her room, "Usako?"

She was curled up on her bed, cradling her arm and tears running down her face. His heart broke at the sight of her, "Usako?" He sat down next to her and pulled her into his arms. She stiffened.

"They jumped to conclusions. Luna and Dad don't trust you! They don't trust me!" she cried, more tears falling.

Mamoru held her closer, trying to calm her down. She didn't resist.

"I can't believe Luna attempted to attack you and in the process got me and didn't even try to say sorry," she mumbled into his shoulder.

It was then Mamoru noticed some blood on her shirt, "Usako. Your arm."

Usagi looked at it and shrugged. "I'll heal it with the crystal."

He shook his head, "We have to clean it first. Luna may be a talking cat but you have no idea where she may have been; the bacteria that could be on her paws."

"I suppose your right," she sighed, nodding her head. "There is some stuff in my dresser," she pointed to the bottom drawer, "bottom one."

Mamoru raised an eyebrow. "You keep stuff in here?"

"In case I was hurt," she replied with a shrug.

"Fair enough," he replied as he walked over. The drawer was filled with bandages, antiseptics, pain pills, all strewn out, some used, some not. He knelt down and pulled out some cotton pads and disinfectant. "This may hurt a bit after," he warned, sitting down on the bed beside her, pouring disinfectant onto a pad.

She nodded her head, "I know."

He cleaned the scratches and sure enough, it started to sting after. She gave a sharp intake of breath.

"It hurts," she whispered.

"Here. We'll take your mind off it," Mamoru replied.

"Wha…" His lips on hers cut her off. She returned the kiss, the pain instantly forgotten as his warmth enveloped her. He tightened his hold on her before the need for oxygen pulled them apart.

"Does it hurt anymore?" he asked taking her arm.

She shook her head, her eyes still glazed from the kiss.

He put a hand over her arm, a gold glow quickly surrounding it. When it faded, the scratches were healed. Not even a scar was present. She looked up into his eyes.

"Thankyou," she whispered. The feel of his energy gave her a warm comfortable feeling.

"That was quite a kiss," a voice said from the door. Both their heads snapped to the door at the sound.

A fierce red blush quickly covered Usagi's face. Ikuko stepped into the room, closing the door behind her.

"Usagi. Why were you in Mamoru's bed last night?" Ikuko asked. She looked at the two of them. The only thing they had to their advantage was that they were both dressed.

"Ummm… I had a nightmare and was upset," she replied, her head down. She didn't feel comfortable saying more than that.

"But why did you have to go and sleep with Mamoru?" she asked again, wanting to know the full story. She could sense that something was upsetting her.

"Well, it wasn't exactly a dream. It was a memory of… of something that happened in the past," Usagi explained. That's all she wanted to say. Her stomach hurt, and the memory was strong in her mind.

She took a deep breath and mumbled on quickly as if saying it would get them all to go away. "I wasn't feeling well one day so I didn't attend a meeting to discuss the threat of the negaverse. I was sick of staying in my room so I left to get some fresh air and walked into the rose gardens." A small smile crossed her face, "I have so many memories of that garden." She looked up at Mamoru, "So many of us. So many of my mother. Of my father." Tears started brimming her eyes, "Whilst I was in the garden, a… a… one of mothers personal guards came down. Said he needed to talk to me but he… he… tried to," she broke off and started crying, burying her head into Mamoru's shirt.

Ikuko looked at Mamoru, "What happened?" Usagi didn't want him to tell, all she wanted to do was forget it.

Mamoru sighed and pulled Usagi closer, "When the Senshi, Queen Serenity and I got there, the guard had already beaten her and stripped her to her undergarments." The pain etched on his face was enough to tell Ikuko what had happened. She held up a hand to stop him.

"It's ok. You don't need to say it. I just feel like I could have done something," she whispered.

Mamoru shook his head, "There was no indication it could have happened. If anyone's to blame, it should be me. I wasn't there to protect her."

"No son. Comforting her last night was the best you could do and I understand that. I'm sorry I didn't trust you," Kenji said while opening the door.

Usagi's head shot up at the sound of her father's voice, "Get Out!" She pulled herself out of Mamoru's arms, "JUST GET OUT!"

Kenji stepped back, "Usagi. Please just listen."

"What? Listen to you tell me how much you hate him?" she yelled back.

Mamoru stood up and placed his hands on her trembling shoulders, "Usako. Let him explain."

She looked up at him and saw the loving look in his eyes. She sighed and turned to her father, "Fine."

Kenji sighed, "I'm sorry I jumped to conclusions. I should have trusted him…" He was muttering like a 5 year old, forced to admit he was wrong.?"

Usagi was angry. No. Angry was an understatement. She was furious. At Luna and at her father. She knew what her father was asking but she wasn't able to forgive him. She looked at her father and silently begged that he would understand. "Dad, I'm sorry. I just can't forgive you like that. I was able to forgive people like Galaxia because their minds were poisoned by evil and they were used as puppets but your reaction was on your own accord. Please I hope you understand," she whispered. Tears started to fall down her face again at the look on her fathers face. Not wanting to look anymore, she turned and buried her face into Mamoru's shirt, which was by now already soaking from her earlier tears.

Kenji sigh, "It's ok. I understand. I have to earn your trust again. I'm sorry Mamoru. He turned and walked out, followed by Ikuko who shut the door to give them privacy.

"Usako? Are you sure you did the right thing? I mean, he's your father," Mamoru asked Usagi.

"I don't know. I feel I did. He lost my trust and now he has to earn it again," Usagi sobbed before burying her head into his shirt, again.

"Usako," he whispered, wrapping his arms tighter around her.

They heard a door slam and a car leave. Usagi pulled away from Mamoru and walked over to the window.

"They're going out," she whispered.

"Who?" he asked confused.

"My parents. We're all alone," she said.

She turned to Mamoru and saw an all to familiar glint in his eye. "Mamo-chan just what are you thinking?" she asked light-heartedly, her mood suddenly brightened.

"Exactly the same as you Usako," he replied with a smirk, "Exactly the same as you."
