"You know, I knew I saw you hiding behind that tree in the park," Mamoru breathed, trying to regulate his heart beat after another passionate exchange.

Usagi looked away. "Actually…I fell from it," she said quietly.

Mamoru stifled a laugh, but was too late; Usagi pushed him roughly and started to stomp away. He easily caught up with her and tried to make amends with another onslaught of kisses. Mamoru felt like he couldn't get enough, but Usagi was bent on denying him the pleasure and kept turning her head away.

"Hey, I had to deal with you running around with that goofy kid with the glasses!" he pouted.

Her eyes widened with embarrassment; she forgot about Naru and Umino. Usagi stealthily pulled him towards her. "For your information, that goofy kid is from my class," she replied, wrapping her arms around Mamoru's thick body. He only stared at her with an eyebrow raised. "I just used him to try to make you jealous and spy on you."

More laughter.

"Oh come on Usako! I'm only teasing you!" called Mamoru as she walked away. "Where are you going?"

"Home!" Usagi yelled back, sticking her tongue out.

"So it really is that way, I knew it!"

Usagi rolled her eyes and broke out into a sprint.

Motoki looked up from the counter when a blur of gold caught his eye. He saw Usagi running along the sidewalk, and then Mamoru chasing after her. Shaking his head, he went back to wiping the counter clean. "Those kids," he muttered.

Mamoru easily caught up with the runaway. He passed her, turned around, and caught Usagi in his arms. There wasn't much of a struggle after. "Hey Usako, I'm just teasing you," he said with his most charming smile. "You should be used to it by now."

A soft "hmph" exited her pink lips. Mamoru wrapped his arms around Usagi so she couldn't run away for the next five minutes.

"Because after that, she's not going to want to go anywhere else," he thought devilishly. His fingers absentmindedly ran through her long hair.

"You know I tease you because I like you," Mamoru said softly. He poured his eyes into hers. "I think you're cute when you're angry."

Usagi scrunched up her face in response, and he grinned at her silly face. "I am very flattered that you told me all you did today," he continued to her discomfort.

"Why? I'm still younger than you…"

"But you have so much heart," Mamoru whispered, resting his forehead against hers. "I may not have always been in love with you, but I never hated you. I don't think I could."

After a passing silent moment, a look of embarrassment crossed Usagi's face. "You know, Umino left me for another girl," she said sadly.

A soft chuckle sounded from Mamoru before he moved in closer. "Lucky for me then, huh?" He brushed his lips against Usagi's. "It's about time the brainy-type-with-glasses that you like so much gets the girl."

Fin.

I was having a bit (okay, a butt-load) of writer's block with this series, but now that I've finished them, the final product made me really happy. I hope everyone enjoyed the last 6 drabbles because I'm proud to bring them to you!A total 180 from "Reasons", eh?

Aside from completing the 100 Themes Challenge, I am several pages into a new short story about Usagi and Mamoru, so watch out for it!

Thanx for reading!
