" Speak"

(thoughts)


Usagi and Ikuko quickly turned around to address the speaker.

"Daddy, please! It's nothing," Usagi said with a panicked voice. (I really did like you Mamoru. How sad that we never will have a chance to investigate those feelings a little closer,) Usagi thought depressed.

(What do you mean? We never will? Seriously, sweetheart, your daddy can't be that bad! Can he?) Mamoru asked Usagi with a doubtful voice.

(Oh, yes he is rather protecting about me. If a guy so much as look at me, he will turn into a homicidal monster. It's rather embarrassing, actually.)

(Oh! If he found out what I thought about you earlier not to mention what we did…then he would try to...)

(He would kill you slowly and painfully,) Usagi finished Mamoru's thought. But she was distracted from their mental conversation when her beloved father suddenly grabbed her and yelled at her.

"Usagi! What do you mean about thinking about Mamoru? Is he a boy that you like? I swear to god I will kill him if he so much as look at you..." Kenji continued to yell at her, but Usagi didn't listen. After all, who wanted to listen to maniac?

"Now Kenji, honey. Calm down!" Ikuko said with a stern look towards her husband. (Sometimes, I swear that he is the most immature person in this family,) she thought with a sigh before she grabbed her husband by the collar of his shirt and started to drag him towards their room.

"Ikuko? What are you doing? Ikuko?" Kenji yelled furiously as he was being dragged away by his wife. "Ikuko, let me go this instant!" His cries and orders didn't have any success though, because he was slowly being pulled towards their bedroom where the door slammed shut. After that, all that could be herd was Ikuko's loud voice, telling her husband what she thought about his immature behavior. Then everything was silent for a few minutes before Ikuko emerged from their room with a quiet Kenji walking behind her. He approached Usagi and quickly apologised to her for the yelling and then walked out to the kitchen for dinner.

"There, everything is resolved and your father is happy that you have found a boy that you like," Ikuko said with a gentle smile towards Usagi.

"He is?" Usagi asked with a doubtful voice.

"No, not really!" Ikuko replied sincerely. "But he will not say or do anything about it."

"Okay!" said Usagi with a big grin. "Thank you, mommy!" She embraced her mother.

"Your welcome, dear! But you will tell me all about him later!" Ikuko replied with a stern voice before she entered the kitchen.

"Yes, mother!" Usagi quietly replied. (Crap! I thought I would get away with this.)


(Well, now I know who is in charge at your house. And it's certainly not your father,) Mamoru replied with laughter in his voice.

(Yeah! Tell me about it! Mother can be pretty scary sometimes. You don't want to make her angry!) Usagi replied thinking back at the many times she had returned home with failed tests.

(Yeah, I guess you know all about it,) Mamoru teased.

(Shut up Mamoru!) Usagi yelled back at him. (Oh no, I almost forgot about dinner. And I'm so hungry. If I don't eat anything soon I will starve to death.)

(I seriously doubt that Usagi, considering that you eat all the time.) Mamoru couldn't help it, he had to say it. A moment later he regretted his harsh words when Usagi's wailing started.

(You are so mean to meeeeeeeeeeee! I need all the food I can get; otherwise I wouldn't be able to...) Usagi's voice faded away when she thought in horror what she almost blurted out. (Don't tell him baka!)

(Don't tell me what?) Mamoru asked curiously.

(Nothing!) Usagi said trying to sound innocent.

(Come on Odango. Tell me!)

(Don't call me that baka. I'm not telling you. I'm going to eat now so shut up!) Usagi snapped at him before entering the kitchen where her family was seated.

"There you are honey! Sit down so we can eat before the food gets cold." Ikuko said to Usagi.

"That baka wouldn't care if the food was frozen. She would eat it anyway," Shingo said with a teasing grin towards his sister.

"Brat!" Usagi replied before turning her attention towards the food in front of her. "Oh, sushi!" she exclaimed happily before she started to eat. "Ah, delicious!" she said a few seconds later when she had finished her meal and her eyes quickly investigated the table for more food to eat.

(Odango if you eat more food you will explode.) Mamoru said with amazement how much the little girl could eat. (You get fat if you eat that much! It's miracle really, that you aren't already.)

(Why are you always so mean to me Mamoru?) Usagi replied with a sad voice.

(Uhh, actually I don't know,) Mamoru said trying to understand it himself. (I'm sorry Usagi. I'll try not to tease you anymore.)

(Really?) Usagi said with a doubtful voice.

(Yes, I promise!) Mamoru replied with a serious voice.

(Good! Now, do you have any idea how we break this mind-link? I really don't want you to hear every thought I have.)

(Oh? Why is that? Do you have secrets that you don't want me to find out? Because I assure you I will find out sooner or later.)

(Secrets? Everyone has secrets and most of them know how to keep them! What makes you think you can get mine out me?) Usagi replied nervously.

(Ahh! So you do have secrets. This is going to be so interesting! Do you have a dark side that you don't want anyone to notice? Are you actually not so nice and innocent as you appear to be?)

(Sure I have a dark side. Everyone does. But you REALLY don't want to see it aimed at you.) Usagi replied trying to sound as threatening as possible.

(Oh? But maybe I would like to see this dark and naughty side of you. And maybe I can show you my dark and naughty side? What do you say my dear?) Mamoru asked with a passionate voice.

(If I hear one more kinky innuendo, I won't be held responsible for my actions!) Usagi said with a loud and threatening voice.

(Is that a promise?) Mamoru replied teasingly.

(Oh! You're impossible. Please someone help me! I don't want to be mind linked with that idiot. Why couldn't I be mind linked with someone else? Why not Motoki?)

(Usagi, dear!) Mamoru said with a threatening voice. (If you ever try to kiss Motoki again, I won't be held responsible for my actions. And don't even think about even looking at another man ever again.)

(Why not? You don't own me. I can do what I want to do!) Usagi replied stubbornly and quickly excited the kitchen to her family's big surprise.

(No you can't. You're MINE. And no one and NOTHING is going to come between us,) Mamoru replied with a possessive tone in his voice.

(I'm not yours. I don't want to be yours and besides you never did ask me!)

(Didn't ask you what?) Mamoru replied with confused voice.

(You never asked me if I would like to be your girlfriend. Not that I want that!) Usagi quickly added the last part, trying to sound like it didn't matter to her.

(Oh! I'm sorry sweetheart! I didn't think about that. Of course you would like me to ask you. I'm so sorry! Would you like to be my girlfriend? You would make me the happiest man in the galaxy!) Mamoru asked with a pleading voice.
