Part Two

Love lessons

Stories of the tired heart

They indeed had been right. Not shortly after Usagi had gotten into the car it had started raining. The small blonde finally realised how tired she had been but until now it just hadn't hit her. She hadn't slept for three days, not because she couldn't but because she wanted to. After all she was going to leave Mamoru, she was nervous but most of all too excited to sleep. For a moment she closed her eyes, simply enjoying the silence and the sound of the drops of rain that landed on the front window.

Ofcourse this silence was interrupted by a voice next to hear. Slowly Usagi opened her eyes again to look at the raven haired girl wondering if it had been just her imagination or if Rei maybe had said something. The raven haired girl was focussed on the road but a smile on her face betrayed how amused she was by the other's behaviour. ''You seem very tired, how long have you been waiting for the bus at that station?'' She finally asked again.

Usagi thought about it for a moment.''Not very long, maybe a few minutes before you came.'' She then answered earning a nod from the other in reply.''But i'd like to thank you for giving me a lift and letting me stay at your place, I don't know what I would've done without your help.''

''You would still be sitting there, waiting for the bus.'' Rei joked earning a playful glare from the blonde who sat next to her.''So tell me, where are you going to anyway? You look rather sad but determined about something.''

Usagi gazed down at her hands now, taking a deep breath as she did so. It wouldn't really matter if she'd tell Rei would it? After all she would be gone out of the raven haired girl's life tomorrow.''I ran away...''

''From home, wow your parents must suck...'' Rei whispered more to herself than to anyone else.

''My home...I guess you could call it that. Maybe it's not a bad idea.'' Usagi replied. Maybe that was were she could head for. She could go back to her parents' house and make up with them for all those years she had missed.''Actually it's my husband i'm walking away from.''

Rei seemed to be suprised for a while.''You have a husband? You look younger than you are then. So what did he do, sleep with someone else, he beat you?'' She then asked curious. That was until she realised how rude she was. ''I'm sorry, you don't have to tell me ofcourse.''

''Nah it's okay.'' Usagi answered as she focussed on the road as well. ''He never cheated on me as far as I know, it's just..He was never home, he never took a day off to spend it with me. I just had enough, I know there's more out there in the world that sitting at home waiting for a husband who will never show up anyway. I'm sure he even forgot it's my birthday tomorrow.''

The raven haired girl nodded.''That sounds like a real man.'' She said sarcastically. ''Well it's his loss, you seem like a nice girl. I'm sure he'll have a hard time dealing with the fact you're no longer there.''

''That's what i'm afraid of.'' The blonde answered. ''Even though he hurt be a lot by his absence I still don't want to hurt him. I do care about him but not enough anymore to be with him any longer. Besides, by the time he figures out i'm not waiting for him anymore it'll be two years from now.'' The other laughed at that comment for a moment. She couldn't believe why anyone would leave his wife who was funny, nice and good looking behind at home.

''You have a good heart, if it was me who was married to that guy I wouldn't scolded the crap out of him and made him feel what I would've felt all that time. But do tell me, how old are you?''

''I'm eightteen years old now, how about you?'' Usagi asked.

Rei looked up in shock. ''I'm nineteen but...you claim you were married at your age? Well no wonder it didn't work out, you are way too young to be married already.'' Usagi shook her head as a small smile appeared on her face.

''If I would've met you two years ago I wouldn't have agreed with you. We were in love, I was blind to see what was already there back then.'' The blonde whispered sadly. ''I wouldn't say i've wasted my time with him though. I feel like i've grown a lot wiser and stronger.'' Rei didn't know what to say at this. Usagi was still so young but she had already been through a lot of things.

When Usagi noticed Rei's silence she smiled. It seemed her story shocked the raven haired girl. She decided it was better to let the subject past and show some interest in the other girl.''So tell me Rei-san, do you still live with your parents or do you live alone?''

''I live alone since I was sixteen. My parents died a long time ago and I grew up with my grandpa. He died a few years ago.'' Was the answer. Usagi ofcourse immidiately regretted her question but she could say anything else Rei went on with her story again.''I guess you and I ar emuch alike, we've been alone for quite some time. Not in the same way ofcourse but somehow I know you can relate to my situation as I can to yours. And please don't feel sorry for me, i've come to accept it myself. Besides just because I had a lousy past doesn't mean I will have a lousy future. As long as I believe things will be better i'm sure it will eventually happen.''

''You're right Rei-san.'' The blonde said. Rei was right, as long as she held faith in becoming happy in the future the past wouldn't really matter.

''Tell me Usagi-san, do you believe in fate?'' The raven haired girl suddenly asked causing Usagi to look up at her.

''I think I do. Yeah...I mean I believe in destiny, I believe everyone has a big part in life on earth. I also believe that there's a true lover out there for anyone. The question is, are you willing to find them, to look for them?'' This time is was Rei's turn to nod but she couldn't agree completely.

''True love?'' She started in a low whisper.''I think that's one of those things you have to see and have before you can believe in it. But then again, what's true love? I mean one person can love so many people and have many affairs and still they claim to love only one person. But how do you know someone is the one? Or is true love just made up by a romantic person who had nothing better to do...''

''For me true love is the person you grow old with.'' Usagi answered even though she could understand Rei's comment.''Ofcourse someone, a person can be able to love alot of people but in the end there's one person you hold the closest to your heart. About how I know someone is my true love...I think yuo just know. When you met them..I believe you will just simply know by a feeling, an emotion you had never felt before..''

''You make it sound like a great thing but sad at the same time Usagi-san. Did you think that when you married that guy that he was your true love?'' Rei asked curious. She never had someone to discuss these things with. Ofcourse she had a few friends but they never had talked like this and here she was discussing true love with someone she hardly knew.

'' I've had a long period of time that I indeed believed that he was the one but now I know I was wrong. I think I still have to wait til I meet my destined lover.''

'' And if you don't..?'' Rei asked.

Usagi took a deep breath. ''Then it's his loss, besides if I end alone so be it. I don't mind, I think it's happiness what counts in the end. I can't spend my whole life waiting and looking for someone who maybe doesn't even excist. Besides, don't they always say , when you stop looking...''

''You will find what you were looking for...'' Rei finished for the other as the car suddenly stopped. ''We're here.'' When Usagi gazed up to see what the other meant with that she could see a beautiful temple surrounded by trees. Was this the place Rei lived? It was beautiful, Usagi was sure Rei would feel lonely very often at such a place though.

''You live here!'' She was amazed. Rei just nodded as she turned the engine off and started to get out of the car. Usagi decided to do the same thing, forgetting all about her suitcase as she got out of the car. She couldn't stop staring at the scenery.

''You'll catch flies with your mouth open like that...'' Rei commented as she walked around the car to get the blonde's suitcase for herself.''Anyway, yes this is were I live. It used to be my grandpa's shrine but now it's mine. I just couldn't find the power nor will to sell it. Besides I love living here, it's not very far from the city and it's quiet.''

''Too quiet..'' Usagi whispered hoping Rei wouldn't have heard it. What she had meant was that if she would've lived her she would have to cry herself to sleep all the time. This place was soo big, actually too big for just one person to live.

Rei just pretended she didn't hear the other's comment as she started walking towards the temple.''Let's get inside, it might have stopped raining but I'm cold.'' She said as Usagi snapped out of her thoughts and nodded once more before following the raven haired girl inside of the temple. On the inside it was just as impressive as the outside. It was huge inside. The floor was made of wood just as the whole temple itself, the room they were in now was decorated with a red carpet in the middle of the room and in the corner of the room stood a small nightstand with on it a small picture frame with four people and an old man on it. One she recognized as Rei, the old man must've been her grandfather and the other three girls, Usagi had no idea but they looked nice.

''Those are my three best friends.'' Rei's voice came from beside her causing her to look up at the raven haired girl who now stood next to her, gazing at the pictures with an honest smile on her face.''That blonde is Minako, she's always very cheerful but she can be annoying at times too. The brunette is Makoto, a great cook and listener. Though you shouldn't talk to her about boys, all she does is chase the poor male population. And the last one..that's Ami, If you would meet her you'll know why everyone calls her a genius. She's really smart.''

''They look like real nice girls, do they live far away from here?'' Usagi wanted to know. She felt bad for Rei, after all the taller woman was so nice for her. No one deserved to be alone like this but on the other hand, Usagi was glad to know Rei did have some friends. It was more than Usagi had at the moment. All she had was memories.

''No actually they live a few miles from here, I always visit them by bus, it's easier and faster that way with the traffic here in Tokyo.'' She explained.''If you want I'll introduce them to you tomorrow, unless you want to leave early to your mysterious destination.''

''My parents...'' Usagi answered.''I think I'm going back to my parents. But i'd like to meet your friends, after all I can always take a later bus or train. Atleast if you won't mind me staying a bit longer.''

''Not at all.'' Rei answered.''It's good to have some company, it get's kind of lonely here.'' For a few minutes it just stayed quiet between them until Rei broke the silence once more.''You look very tired, let me show you were you can sleep for the night.'' She said pointing at a wooden door which had an amulet hanging on iy with the words peace on it. Maybe it was some lucky charm.

''Oh I wouldn't mind sleeping on the couch!'' Usagi yelped. After all she didn't want to cause Rei any discomfort.

''OH don't be silly Usagi-san, It's the guest room not my own bedroom and I really don't mind. I can't just let my friends and guests sleep on the couch can I?'' Rei answered while picking Usagi's suitcase up from the ground again and started to carry it towards the bedroom.''Please follow me, after that i'll show you around.''
