A Bit Amorously
A/N: Some of these weekly words. Are just amazing. Thank goodness for random word generators! Hahaha! Anyway, here's a sweet one with a slightly cliched storyline. But hey! It's all fun!
I actually do write down the ideas you guys give me, by the way. And I will use them. Eventually. So keep 'em coming!
. . .
It is a quarter past three when the arcade doors open and cause the bells to ring out. The ebony haired man looks back to spot a blonde walking-no waltzing into the arcade.
He turns with a broad smile to face the girl. Mamoru has been waiting for Usagi for the past hour. She was only released from school about ten minutes prior but the sight of her and the knowledge of their plan was well worth the time he spent. "What's up Odango?"
Usagi's eyebrow arches as she looks toward the upperclassman. A quick glance at her watch told her things were not going to start for another five minutes. But regardless, he is definitely one of the reasons she still frequents the arcade. Well, him and the fact all her friends adore flirting with Motoki.
"None of your business, baka."
Over the past few months Mamoru and Usagi have toned down their full-blown fighting and it has evolved into flirtatious bickering. It is now a game between the patrons of the arcade to see when the two will start to date. The most popular option as a matter of fact is this day. Exactly one year after they first met.
Regardless of how much people tried to keep the game a secret, Mamoru and Usagi know.
Motoki slipped up a few days ago.
Me moves to sit next to Mamoru knowing her friends would not be there for a few minutes. And they need to be ready to start their plan. The show needs to be perfect.
"Aw, don't say that, Odango. You can admit you failed another test. I already know." Mamoru faces the girl beside him. his words are still teasing. But his eyes ask if she's ready to play. And of course she is.
The players will be here any minute.
Usagi purses her lips. "I didn't fail-I didn't even take a test today! So, HA!" In a matter of moments the arcade's game will be worthless.
And the duo would never have to hide again.
The bells chime, signaling the opening of the doors.
Showtime.
"Hey girls!" Usagi turns away from the ebony haired man to face her four friends. She waves them over as her eyes scan the rest of the arcade. Now where's Motoki. Ironically he saw the girls come in and walked up to meet with them.
The group look at each other nervously. Today is the day of fate. Ami has been out of the running for about six months now and everybody expects money from her today if they duo does in fact start to date today. Everybody in the arcade seems to freeze. "Hey, Usagi-chan. What's up? Why are you with Mamoru-san? I thought you hated him."
Rei's words come first and the rest of the group nods in agreement. They wait anxiously for something. An announcement of sudden desires toward one another. Announcement that something has changed.
Usagi looks back at Mamoru and he nods at her. They know what is going to happen. Their friends are watching them like dogs and the show has already begun. There is no backing out now. The upperclassman grabs the blonde's hand and turns back. "We have something to say."
A pin could have been heard if it dropped. Everybody is watching and Usagi's cheeks burn. She quickly squeezes the man's hand and gives Rei a bright smile. "W-well, as it turns out-Mamoru and I are dating."
The arcade erupts in cheers and they turn to Ami. "Pay up!" Makoto announces.
But Mamoru holds his hand up. "But we're not done." People freeze again.
Mamoru turns and gives Usagi a quick kiss on the lips, just barely brushing them together. "We've been going out for the past six months." He smiles. "Happy sixth month anniversary, Usako."
"Happy Six Month, Mamo-chan!" She giggles and wraps both hands around his neck.
The patrons remain silent. Nobody was expecting that. Nobody but Ami. "I win! All of you pay up, thank you very much!"
