2. Masks
"Masquerade! Paper faces on parade! Masquerade! Hide your face so the world will never find you!" A group of students started singing. Usagi laughed. It was the prom and the theme was Phantom of the Opera and a Masquerade. Usagi had a white strapless gown that poofed out a bit at the hips and rested down near her knee. She had white high heels to match as well with a pair of gloves. Her white full mask rested on her face. Her hair was still the way it usually was. She looked around to try to find Mamoru who walked off to get something to drink. Usagi went to the drinks area and he was nowhere to be seen. "Mamoru?" She said quietly. A hand touched her shoulder and she screamed turning around. Her face didn't stay frightened for long when she realized it was Mamoru. He started to laugh. "Sorry, Buns. I didn't mean to scare you."
Usagi smiled. "It's okay." She blushed a bit. Mamoru looked amazing in his black suit and full black mask. She put her arm around his and sighed happily. "I love you."
Mamoru smiled and kissed her cheek. "I love you, too."
As if on cue the song 'All I Ask of You' came on. It was the love song from Phantom of the Opera. Usagi blushed as she looked up at Mamoru. Mamoru led her to the dance floor and started to dance. Usagi leaned against him. She could smell the cologne he used. She started to hum the melody and then she started to sing the song softly so just Mamoru could hear her sing.
"Say you'll love me every waking moment. Turn my head with talk of summertime. Say you need me with you now and always. Promise me that all you say is true. That's all I ask of you." Usagi smiled after she finished the song. Mamoru looked into her eyes and kissed her deeply. "I will." He broke the kiss for a moment to say those words before kissing her even deeper. Usagi wrapped her arms around his neck. He spun her around being careful no one was in their way. Usagi started laughing.
"Usagi… This is your senior year of high school."
Usagi nodded in agreement.
"So." He took a breath and kneeled down on one knee. "Will you marry me?" He pulled out a diamond ring from his coat pocket. Usagi put her hands over her mouth as tears poured down her cheeks as Mamoru waited patiently for an answer.
"Yes! Yes! Yes! Oh, Mamoru!" Usagi leaned down into Mamoru's arms knocking him over. He started to laugh. He leaned up and put the ring on Usagi's left ring finger. He kissed the finger that had the ring on it. He moved to her lips.
After that night, the masks were always important to them. Usagi kept them on her bureau so she could look at them every morning and night. She could remember the wonderful night where Mamoru proposed to her.
