AN: Just to answer a question that many ppl have been asking me. No, Usagi is not Sailor Moon in this fic and the senshi and Tuxedo Kamen are just normal everyday ppl.


Usagi let out a low slow sigh as she hoisted herself up into Damon's pick-up and closed the door. She closed her eyes and tried to wish away the events that had happened moments before. It seemed as if she just couldn't get a break. As soon as things started to go good for her there was always something or someone there to stop it. Maybe she was just destined to be unhappy forever.

"What's wrong?" Damon asked as he rubbed her lap lovingly.

"Nothing. It was just a very trying day."

"So who was that guy you were talking to?"

"Hmmm? Oh, no one. Just a patient."

"Okay. So I guess we're going to play stupid, then huh?" Damon's voice wasn't angry or harsh; in fact he kept it rather calm.

Usagi furrowed her brow, "What do you mean?"

"Usagi please, don't play me for a fool. For almost a week now, You've been out of sorts. You've been very down and you always have that look on your face."

"What look?"

"The look you had when you were talking to that guy in there," Damon paused briefly, "the look that you always get when your ex is on your mind. I'm not an idiot, I know that was him. How long till you decided to tell me? Were you ever planning on telling me?" Damon's paranoia set in. He had been cheated on once, was it happening again. He wanted to trust Usagi, but it just seemed a little too suspicious for his liking.

"I don't know. I guess I thought that if I didn't tell you, I wouldn't have to face it myself."

"What do you mean by that?"

"What? Do you think that I like him being here? Do you think that I told him to come? I went into the center one day and there he was. He thinks that by getting clean somewhere where I can witness it I'll get back together with him. It's almost like he won't take no for an answer. Like he doesn't want to admit what happened. Which is common among most addicts. But still……. I just don't know what to do. Before you showed up I was in the middle of telling to leave me alone and that my desion was final. I just don't know what else to do; I've done all I can."

"Not everything. Have you gone to the police?"

"On what grounds do I have to do that?"

"Usagi! The guy is harassing you. That's plenty enough to get a restraining order."

"But he hasn't done anything to hurt me physically, there's no point. And besides, even if he had what good would a piece of paper do?"

Damon leaned forward and started his truck, "You're right. But there's gotta be some way of getting him to stop." Damon paused to think. Finally, he turned his truck off and got out. He was heading instead the building. Usagi's heart leapt into her throat. What was he doing? He better not do anything drastic. Quickly Usagi climbed out of the truck and went after him.


Damon walked through the front doors and surveyed the area. He found Mamoru sitting in the lounge just of to the right.

"I need to talk to you." Damon said as he approached Mamoru, taking the chance that he understood English. Mamoru was going to an English speaking rehab, so he must.

Mamoru didn't get up from the chair in which he sat, he simply looked up at the man standing in front of him, "Do I know you?" Mamoru said confused.

"No. But I know you. And I'd really appreciate it if you left Usagi alone. Hasn't she made it clear enough that she wants nothing to do with you anymore? Stop Harassing her."

Mamoru stood now so he can be eye level to other man, "And who are you to be threatening me like this."

"I'm not threatening you in slightest. I'm just telling you to stay away from her. But to answer her question, I happen to be her fiancé." Damon took great pleasure in revealing that tid-bit of information. And took even greater pleasure in the reaction he got.

Mamoru widened his eyes for a split second and begin darting them around in disbelief, "Her fiancé?" Momaru's eyes focused on something beside Damon. Damon knew it was Usagi.

"Come on. Stop whatever it is your doing and let's just go home." Usagi said softly to Damon, so Mamoru couldn't hear her.

"So you're engaged now?" Mamoru asked her with no emotion in his voice at all. Then next thing he said he could have said it in Japanese, but chose not to for some reason unknown to all three of them, "So what? I guess you whore yourself out to which guy comes along?" Usagi didn't have time to react to Mamoru's hurtful words. The next thing she knew Damon had violently punched Mamoru in the face, Mamoru landed on the floor at Damon's feet.

"Damon!" Usagi's eyes flew wide open and she was down on her knees beside Mamoru looking at his bleeding face. She gently touched the corner of Mamoru's mouth where the blood was coming from, Mamoru winced at the pain. "Damon I think you should leave." She said simply.

"Usagi---"

"Just go, okay. Believe me you don't want to be around me right now." She looked up at him and if looks could kill, Damon would be dead 20 times over.

Damon let out an aggravated sigh and left reluctantly. Usagi helped Mamoru sit up, Mamoru looked at her, "Well, I guess I know where your loyalties lie."

"Oh shut up Mamoru! Yes he had no right to hit you, but you had no right to say that! It's not really something you want to say to someone you're trying to get back together with."

Mamoru perked up, "Are you saying that there's a chance for us?"

"Definitely not now! Just leave me alone and stop trying to contact me." With that Usagi got up and left the building.


It was a long walk home, but she frankly didn't care. Normally, she would hate to walk 30 minutes to get home. But now it wasn't too bad. She had no desire to talk to Damon right now or be anywhere near him for that matter. True Mamoru had no right to say that about her, but did Damon really have to react like that? This whole situation was just so frustrating. This is exactly why she didn't want Mamoru and Damon to know about each other. So was so angry with the both of them. Why did men think that it was impressive to fight over a girl? And why do they think that violence is the answer to everything. Usagi's eyes narrowed, great this is just what she needed right now. Damon's ex, Cassandra, was heading toward her. Why, oh why was this the day from hell? Could it possibly get any worse than this?

"Hey, skank." Cassandra greeted Usagi with an angry glare.

Usagi cocked an eyebrow, "Is that the best you can come up with? Well, we wouldn't want you to think too hard now would we? You might just hurt that pretty little head of yours."

Cassandra just stood there and glared at Usagi not knowing what to say.

"Why do you always show up at the most inopportune times?" Usagi demanded, "And why can't you people just leave me and Damon alone and let us be together in peace? Okay! Fine! You want him back you can have him! I don't care anymore!" Usagi ran off before Cassandra could see the tears in her eyes. She really didn't care anymore. She knew that she would always be plagued by Mamoru and Cassandra and she could never really be happy with Damon because of that. She knew that it just wouldn't be worth it.
