Eep, sorry everyone! I got a lot of comments about how sad my last drabble was, so here's another series that will hopefully make everyone feel happy again because I PROMISE there's a happy ending here. I'm also thinking about writing a sequel to "Reasons" to resolve the battle against Metalia, but at the moment, I am writing a different short storyfeaturing Usa & Mamo (I'm going to dub them Bunny and Darien for kicks).

Thank all who are reading my drabbles and extra thanks to everyone who commented.

Boyfriends

"Come on people!" urged Usagi as she raced out of the classroom after school. "I have to get to Crown before…"

"Oh Usagi-chan! Wait for me!"

Groaning, Usagi turned around to see the short Umino fighting his way through the crowd of exiting students of their high school. Once he reached Usagi, Umino was clearly out of breath. Usagi grunted and spun on her heels, ready to break out into a sprint to get away from the unwanted guest. Umino followed with a goofy grin on his lips, while Usagi tried her hardest to ignore him on the way to Crown Arcade.

"Do you want to get a prune milkshake?" he asked.

"No."

"Do you want to play me at the Sailor V game?"

"No."

Umino scratched his head. "Gee Usagi, if you don't like getting shakes or playing video games, how come you're always at Crown? You should spend your time studying!"

Usagi used all of her concentration to keep her temper from exploding at Umino. They entered the arcade, and Usagi was desperate to come up with a plan to get rid of him. Among the present patrons, she caught sight of Mamoru, whose back was turned to her. She ran ahead and linked her arm through his, whipping the unsuspecting Mamoru around.

"I go here all the time to meet up with my boyfriend! See!" she said, nearly yelling.

Usagi glared at Umino as he looked Mamoru from head to toe. To her disgust, Umino smiled. "I see you like the brainy type with glasses, Usagi," he said, puffing out his chest. "Never fear, dear maiden, I will have my chance with you yet! By the looks of your boyfriend, I know it is me that you truly love deep down."

With that, Umino turned and exited the arcade.

"Brainy type with glasses!" Usagi repeated in amazement. "That kid is too dangerous for society."

"Because of his drop-dead gorgeous looks?" asked a familiar voice.

Usagi jumped in surprise, realizing that she was still holding onto Mamoru. She pushed him away, laughing out loud in nervousness. She composed herself in time to look at her savior, only to gaze at Mamoru's blue eyes hiding behind a small pair of glasses. Usagi's mouth gaped open.

He arched his eyebrow in curiosity. "You're usually a lot louder than this, Odango. Are you okay?"

"You wear glasses!" Usagi blurted.

Mamoru blinked, unsure on whether he should answer the question or check Usagi's temperature. He took them off and said, "Yes. See, it's me." Mamoru put them back on. "Don't be fooled."

Too amazed to be insulted, Usagi nodded speechlessly. That's what Umino was talking about…And to think of it, Mamoru doesn't look too bad with those glasses on.

"Mamoru, what's going on?"

The soft voice snapped Usagi out of her daydream. She watched as a slender woman with dark hair walked up next to Mamoru and wrapped her arm around his. Mamoru smiled at her before returning his attention to Usagi. "I'll catch you later, Odango."

The couple began to exit the arcade, but Usagi stopped them. "You have a girlfriend!" she blurted again.

Mamoru and his mysterious escort exchanged quizzical looks before laughing. "I should ask you the same thing about your boyfriend, Odango."

"Baka, stop calling me that!" yelled Usagi. She calmed down in the presence of the new girl. "I was just…surprised, that's all."

"Well I can't help it if I have a social life," replied Mamoru with a smile. He walked up to Usagi and patted her head. "Don't worry, I know it is me that you truly love deep down."

Usagi watched silently as the couple strolled out of the arcade. She tried with all of her might, but couldn't ignore the pangs of jealousy knocking at her heart. With or without the glasses, it was her first time seeing Mamoru as someone other than that Baka-head. Clenching her fists, Usagi ran out of the arcade. The game was afoot.
