CHAPTER THREE

Hey! I have decided to give a better summary of what has happened. I totally forgot the main point of the story: how Usagi and Mamoru broke up. Well, if you remember from the Second season of SM (anime version) Mamoru breaks up with her over some dreams of Usagi's death. However, here she does not get back together with him and fully becomes a woman. Usagi transforming into Sailor Moon won't be in here; I always thought that kinda got in the way of the romance sometimes, especially in the anime. Tuxedo Kamen was shown as a wimp, even though we all know he isn't. So…. Mamoru still loves her, but now he gets it into his head that the nightmares are a thing of the past. All the enemies are gone so they can have the relationship they've always wanted. Or can they? (soap opera music playing). Yes, that was corny—leave me alone.

Disclaimer: I own Sailor Moon, as well as the world (evil laughing in background, Ow I tripped over a stool). Didn't you know? On a serious note, if anyone sues me, all they will get is a a fake buck and a couple of crumbs thrown in if you're lucky.

Well, you'll never guess what I did then: I fainted.

When I awoke, several hours or minutes later, I had a major headache. Too much info in my head. My brain can only fill up to a certain amount, otherwise it crashes. Just like a computer, a really stupid one. I groggily lifted my head to hear several voices downstairs.

"How bad was Usagi?"

"Well….after a few choice words, she fainted."

"SHE DID!"

"Shut up Minako! Do you want her to wake up?" Rei snarled.

"Sorry, it's just so cliché! Don't worry Mamoru, you'll get her! As they always say, some pain makes gain."

"I won't even comment on that." Rei said, shaking her head.

"You guys are cheering me on, even though you know I was the one to split us up."

"We know you must have had a good reason, anyways what's in the past doesn't have to haunt us now. And who knows, maybe it's better this way. We all have become more matureand able to hold responsibility for our actions." Minako said solemnly.

"That's the most decent thing I've ever hear you say Minako," Rei said.

"Anyways, now it's legal for Mamoru to jump Usagi's bones," Minako said gleefully.

"Spoke to soon."

While they continued to speak, I was ignoring them, content to silently creep downstairs for some aspirin. Then Rei's shoe from Hell appeared and it's all history.

"Usagi is a lot more graceful—" Rei said, then stopping at the sound of a crash. They all look towards the stairs, seeing a very worn out me sprawled on the floor. "Maybe I was wrong, you know I guess they really didn't change."

"Yeah, you've still got the bitchy attitude." I mumbled getting up. "I'm just getting some aspirin, feel free to talk about me some more."

"Usako—"

"I told you not to call me that! You don't love me!"

"Usako—"

"Never mind, I'm going back upstairs."

"USAGI TSUKINO, YOU WILL NOT LEAVE! SIT YOUR BUTT DOWN RIGHT NOW MISSY!" Minako thundered.

For such a small girl, she REALLY has a big mouth. However, though my mind protested, I sat my butt down and waited for more instructions. What can I say, I'm a coward.

"Now you will listen to Mamoru and not say one more word!" Minako snapped, then turning her head to Mamoru. "We've gotta go, see you around."

"Hey, I want to stay." Rei whined. Minako then dragged Rei out by the ear.

"Who would have seen the day where Minako was the most mature of all of us." Mamoru said chuckling. "But then again, that's not saying much."

"Definitely not me." I mumbled.

"Usagi we need to talk."

"I'm listening."

"I never told you why we broke up, but I'm telling you now."

"Why are you doing this? Why are you opening up old wounds?" I said tearfully.

"You NEED to hear this. While we were dating, I started getting dreams—no visions of your death. A mysterious voice kept telling me to stay away from you or you would die." Mamoru said gently. Whatever response he was waiting for, it wasn't the one I gave.

"YOU BROKE UP WITH ME OVER SOME STUPID DREAM AND YOU'RE TELLING ME THIS FOUR YEARS LATER! AND NOW YOU THINK I'M JUST GONNA JUMP BACK INTO YOUR ARMS! DO YOU HONESTLY THINK I'M THAT EASY?" I screamed. Mamoru fell back from his chair from the sheer force of my voice. I guess I kinda overreacted. He deserved it though.

"Usagi you don't understand. Every night I saw this happen to you. At first I thought I would ignore it, but it became stronger, more realistic. I came to the conclusion that if I could save your life, even if we couldn't be together, I'd take it. Now I realize I should have just told you. I'm not saying you have to love me again or anything. I'm just wondering if we could start to date, take it slow. What do you say?" Mamoru answered. He positioned his chair a little further back just to make sure that if I yelled again, he wouldn't get the brunt of it.

"I don't see why not? But it's JUST a date okay?" I said quietly.

"Alright. Since you know this place a lot better than me, would you like to give me a tour of it here?"

"Sure, how 'bout tomorrow?"

"Perfect, I'll come around noon." Mamoru said, standing up. "See you later." He said right before leaving, giving me a wink.

He REALLY is an ass, a conceited one at that. But he then again he REALLY is fine, the hottest ass ever.

"How'd it go?" Ami asked anxiously, her reading glasses tipping over her frail nose.

"How do you know,weren't you at a seminar?"

"Well, you see— "

"Minako blabbed off." Rei said bluntly.

"God, Rei! You're SO annoying!" Minako said exasperatedly, fixing the red bow in her hair. No matter how old Minako gets, she always has that red bow in her hair, I guess it's her good luck charm.

"Anyways, how did it go?" Makoto asked, giggling like a schoolgirl.

"I'mtakinghimforatourofItalytomorrow!" Usagi mumbled quickly.

"Usagi, we don't speak gibberish."

"Shut up Rei, I said I'm giving him a tour of Italy tomorrow. And not another word!"

"AWWWWWWW" The four girls chorused.

"I'm going to sleep," I declared.

As I walked upstairs, I felt a certain feline rubbing against my legs.

"What is it Luna?" I snapped, I didn't mean to sound so rude but after talking with those devil spawn, it's hard not to. "Sorry."

"Usagi-chan, I just want you to know I will always be there for you. And if Mamoru hurts you, I will personally scratch his eyeballs out."

"Thanks Luna, I knew I could count on you."

"Be careful tomorrow."

"Don't worry Luna, it's just a date, how bad could it be?"

That single phrase jinxed me for life, or at least for the date.

"Get up honey!"

"NO… Mrs. Haruna will just have to wait."

"Don't make me use force."

"…"

As I switched positions on my bed, (with respectable crescent moons on the comforter) I suddenly felt a cold gush of water on me. I woke up startled as hell.

"REI!"

"Yes."
"Do you do what I think you just did?"

"Maybe." "Why'd you wake me up? It's the weekend."

"You were supposed to meet Mamoru at Makoto's restaurant THIRTY minutes ago!"

"Damn." I said, hopping out of bed. I then started to attack my closet. I threw article after article of clothes to my bed.

"Usagi, could you do me a favor?" Rei said, a red tinge on her cheeks. For all the years I've been Rei's friend, I have never seen her blush, this has gotta be good.

"What is it?"

"I'm going on a date with Jed, and I was wondering if I could borrow a dress to wear."
"Aw, my little baby is growing up! She's going on a date with a BOY!" I shouted, squeezing her flushed cheeks. I loved not being the one blushing.

"Oh shut up!"

"Alright, take this red dress. It makes you look 'exotic'. By the end of the night, he'll be begging for you to stay with him."

"Whatever. Now go or Mamoru is gonna leave!"

"Fine." I dashed out of the room, sporting a white summer dress. I absolutely adore this dress. On the back, it has laces stitching it up. Why I decided to wear my favorite dress for this supposed date, I'll never know. Before I went downstairs, I popped my head back in the room. "Rei and Jadeite sitting in a tree, K-I-S-S-I-N-G!" Before I could say anything else, Rei's shoe from Hell made its appearance again, whacking me squarely in the head. I'd be surprised if I don't get a huge bump on my head from this. "Don't be embarassed Rei, who knows when the last time was you had--" Damn shoe hit me again. I decided I better leave, I don't want to face the wrath of Rei's shoes anymore. "Bye Loverboy!"

XxXx

I arrived at Makoto's restaurant shortly after, a shower of dust and debris hitting all behind me. It was like school all over again. When I saw Mamoru, he was checking his watch, a tight ass as usual. I decided I might as well pull a little prank...

I snuck up on Mamoru and screamed in his ear 'Boo!' a little to hard I guess, because he stumbled into an old lady. The woman began to unmercifully whack Mamoru with her 2 ton purse. I guess I overdid it, just a bit. I pulled Mamoru away and told the lady politely to 'please shove off '.

Mamoru is giving me the deathglare at the moment, so I decided to break the ice by starting a very good conversation.

"So...how was your day?"
