Chapter 9
Ready for more twists and turns in Usagi's big idea?
Well here they come -
Makoto quickly checked her watch, the time was 4.55pm and she finished working at the Café in five minutes. She couldn't wait to see Motoki as she did every Friday afternoon after her shift….
"Mako two long blacks for table two please"
"Hai" Makoto called, attending to the order.
The brunette suddenly froze at table two when she saw who was there patiently waiting for their cup of espresso.
Her lips curled and eyes narrowed.
"Mamoru" She hissed.
The rather nice looking brown haired girl who was with him appeared a little shocked and confused at the waitress's cold reaction.
"Oh Makoto hello" Mamoru quietly replied.
"I take it you two know each other" "Im Soari pleased to meet you" the college student smiled and held out her hand.
Makoto ignored the friendly female and slammed her coffee down beside her. Soari jolted a little. Makoto placed one hand on her hip.
"Is this the girl you left Usagi for?" She rudely questioned.
Mamoru looked at the floor in embarrassment.
"Makoto please now is not the time"
Soari raised an eyebrow.
"Oh I think it's the perfect time" Miss Kino snapped.
She then glanced at Soari evilly.
"I bet Mr nasty hasn't told you that he's gonna be a dad"
Soari gasped.
"Ha didn't think so" "You see?" "You don't know him as well as you thought you did"
Mako sarcastically smiled.
Mamoru stood up and went to yank the coffee out of Makoto's hand when she let her wrist motion toward him, spilling the contents of the drink down his white shirt.
"Ah" He yelled.
"Oops sorry sir" she said with an evil wink.
The brown haired teenager then walked away and prepared to leave work for the night with a small grin on her face.
Soari busily wiped the coffee stain off of Mamoru with a paper towel.
"Are you going to let her get away with that?" She asked.
Mamoru sighed.
"Well there isn't much I can do" "She is Usagi's friend" he replied.
Soari looked disappointedly at the dark haired man sitting in front of her defeatedly.
"I don't care" She retorted. "That's unprofessional no matter what the circumstances may be between you and you're uh….ex girlfriend?"
Mamoru ran a hand through his hair.
"I guess she is yeah"
Soari smiled and cupped his face with her hands.
"I don't dislike you for what you and Usagi san did" "I think it's a little foolish but it doesn't change my opinion of you as a person" she warmly said.
Mamoru smiled back. How could any woman think that way of him after what he did?
As nice as Soari was to him, all the words in the world could not extinguish the guilt he had inside for cowering at the thought of raising a child with Usagi…..
When Mamoru and Soari arrived back home there was a message from Motoki san on his answering machine.
"Oh crap" Chiba exclaimed.
Soari rubbed his arm.
"What's wrong?"
Mamoru inhaled loudly and exhaled anxiously.
"Well everyone's about to find out so I may as well tell you" He replied.
"What?" Soari innocently asked.
"It's Motoki, you see that girl in the diner was his girlfriend"
Soari nodded her head.
"Oh, well that's great for him" She sarcastically snarled.
Soari san was not too fond of the first impression she got from Miss Makoto Kino.
"Yeah I said he WAS"……
Soari gasped.
"He didn't?"
Mamoru nodded, "Yeah, her name is Minako Aino and she is one of Usagi and Makoto's closest friends"
Meanwhile at Motoki's (Where all the action is taking place)
Makoto is being restrained by Haruka who is a little stronger than her but not by much. Michiru stands in front of the trembling blonde female so Makoto doesn't smack her down hard onto the carpet and throw her out the window into the street.
"YOU SLUT" "HOW DARE YOU"
She screamed.
Minako cried into Motoki's arms. He stood silently, comforting her by stroking her hair.
Makoto seethed.
"AND…YOU, YOU SICK TWO TIMING BASTARD"
YOU SAID WE WERE IN LOVE"
"WHAT A JOKE"
Makoto's face was bright red and sweat is dripping from her forehead.
"Makoto what they've done is horrible and wrong" Michiru said.
"But don't stoop to their level and use violence"
"Our level?" Motoki questioned. "We aren't the ones using force here"
Haruka glared at the man for saying such a thing, at the same time keeping a tight hold of Makoto's arms...
"YOU NASTY LITTLE PRICK HOW COULD YOU SAY THAT?"
The brunette yelled fiercely.
Minako wiped her eyes and moved away from her blonde lover.
"Im so sorry Mako chan" She wept.
DON'T CALL ME CHAN, BITCH" was her response.
"She has every right to be angry" Haruka added.
"We know that" Motoki hissed.
Michiru shot the blonde man daggers.
"Don't you get like that" she warned.
Minako ran into the bathroom, causing a scene.
Makoto wanted to chase her but Motoki was in full view so she attempted to break free from Haruka san again and pounce on him first.
Her legs went flying, she still had her black school shoes on and black short shorts from work.
"Its okay Makoto san" "Come back to our place and we will talk about it" Michiru said with a sympathetic smile.
"I DON'T WANNA TALK I WANNA KILL THEM"
ESPECIALLY MINAKO BUT MOTOKI EVEN MORE"
Tears started to fall from her crème colored skin as she screamed.
Haruka pressed the tall brunette against the door and grabbed her shoulders with force. Makoto was taken back by Haruka's strength.
"Shh" "Now we will go downstairs and talk this through"
"If I had my way I would beat the living day lights out of that sleaze bag too but we're not going to do that are we?"
Motoki was furious at the two females. Firstly for showing up when Makoto arrived home, forcing the news out of him and then for bringing him and his love Minako down in front of Makoto.
"But I…" Makoto cried.
Haruka pressed a finger against the feisty young girl.
"I know honey. The blonde warmly replied. " "You're upset and noone blames you but you need to be the bigger person in all of this"
"Think of Usagi, scared and alone, carrying someone's baby"
Makoto calmed down a little and thought of her friend.
"She's in the car" Michiru smiled.
"Come on let's go and have a talk huh?"
Makoto wiped the tears from her eyes and nodded.
"Well okay"
"That's my girl" Haruka whispered.
Michiru and Haruka had nothing more to say to Motoki or Minako. Silence filled the room as they three females left.
The moment Haruka had stepped out of the doorway; Makoto spun around and said one last thing to Motoki…
"I saw your best friend at work today"
Motoki widened his eyes.
"He was with another woman; I believe her name was sour"
Haruka laughed.
Michiru shook her head. "Oh jerk number two"
"You mean Soari san" Motoki corrected.
"I know what I said" Makoto rudely snapped back.
"I always wandered why you were friends with a selfish perverted asshole like him"
She scowled.
"Huh and now I know" she narrowed her eyes before flouncing out and said:
"You're just like him"
Michiru closed the door in front of the stunned male.
When the coast was clear, Minako stepped out of the bathroom in floods of tears.
Motoki walked beside her and cuddled her gently around the waist.
"I feel so bad" "How could I be that type of girl?"
Motoki kissed her on the head.
"How could I be that kind of guy?"
Makoto furiously entered the vehicle and sat next to Usagi.
"I never wanna see him or HER again" she yelled.
Usagi looked frightened and confused.
"Oh sorry Usa chan" she tapped her blonde friend on the stomach.
"You know what I just saw?"
Usagi shook her head.
Michiru and Haruka stepped into the car….
"You didn't know did you Usagi?" Haruka asked.
"Know what?" the pregnant teen asked.
"Oh that's so freakin typical" "they kept it a freakin secret from everyone" Makoto spat.
"Uh Mako chan; "who did?" Usagi questioned.
Makoto cleared her throat and clenched her fists.
"Motoki and Minako were having an affair BEHIND MY BACK"
Usagi looked horrified and very sad for Makoto.
She started to whimper and rested her head against her friend.
"Im sorry Mako chan" "I had no idea"
Makoto patted Usagi's hair and forced a tiny smile.
"Yeah well it's not your fault Usa chan"
Michiru turned around from the front seat.
"It's not yours either Mako chan"
"I know" Makoto nodded admittedly.
"All guys are pigs Usagi"
"Mamoru is scum, Motoki is scum and even our so called best friend can not be trusted"
She said this with anger in her emerald eyes.
Haruka sped along the highway….
Usagi wanted to agree with Makoto when she said that they weren't going to see either Motoki or Mamoru again……..She wanted to hate Mamoru for what he did but she just couldn't.
Usa lay awake in her new bedroom that night while Makoto stayed up late chatting about how disgustingly perverse Mamoru and Motoki were.
"It's good that our little Usa is out of those three idiots house too" Mako grunted, pouring herself a glass of scotch that was in the girls kitchen.
Haruka let Makoto go for it, she wasn't about to stop someone with a broken heart not even be able to drown her sorrows…even if she was underage.
"I thought you admired the Kou brothers" Michiru said, sipping on a glass of orange juice (she didn't drink)
"Yeah well that was until I found out that all men are asses"
"I mean Seiya only wanted Usagi there so he could eventually take advantage of her"
Haruka nodded.
"Why do you think we got her outta there?"
Michiru sighed and smiled at Mako and Haru….
"Now I know you dislike men Haruka dear but don't go influencing Makoto, there are some nice ones out there too you know"
Haruka narrowed her eyes at her girlfriend.
"You be quiet sugar"
Michiru smiled and winked.
"Im never quiet, not at home"
Haruka blushed and grabbed Michiru gently. She pressed her lips against hers while Makoto watched with surprising interest……..
She rested her head in her hands and lay on the couch.
"If all else fails I can get with a girl next time" Makoto said.
Michiru and Haruka froze and looked at the brunette.
"Im serious" Mako replied.
Haruka smiled, Michiru shook her head.
"You see what you've done darling"
Haruka kissed her girlfriend on the forehead and nodded.
"I know isn't it great?" She replied.
Makoto rolled her eyes while the two girls played affectionately on the other sofa together…
Meanwhile:
Naru knocked on the door….She held in a deep breath and waited for Mrs Tsukino to answer.
"Hello…oh hello Naru san" The blue haired woman smiled.
"Uh you know that Usagi is not with us at the moment" There was slight pain in Ikuku's voice when she said that.
Naru nodded.
"Yes I do"
Usagi's mother nodded back and looked at the redhead oddly.
"Is there something you want dear?"
"Well as a matter of fact" Naru replied.
"May I please come in?"
Ikuku lead Naru san into the living room. Shingo was upstairs while Kenji hadn't finished work yet. (He worked late on Fridays)
"Would you like some green tea?" "Or perhaps a juice?" Ikuku offered.
Naru shook her head and sat on the couch.
"I won't be here for long"
Ikuku sat beside her.
She pressed her school skirt against her hands uneasily…
"I would like to ask, well Im pretty sure noone else that she knows has asked you yet"
Ikuku looked suspiciously at the teenage girl.
"Did Usagi put you up to this?"
Naru held her hands out and shook her head fiercely.
"No way, she doesn't even know I'm here" "Noone does"
Ikuku folded her arms.
"I see" she replied.
"Then why do you want to know why I asked Usagi to leave our house?"
Naru gasped, Ikuku Tsukino was on to it…..
"Well in all fairness Mrs Tsukino you kind of kicked her out"
Naru said nervously.
Ikuku nodded.
"I had my reasons Naru" she replied with a sad voice.
"I still love her you know" "I just can't stand to look at her right now"
A small tear fell from Ikuku's blue eyes.
Naru didn't feel in the least bit sympathetic for Usagi's Mother.
"Mrs Tsukino, can you stand to look at me?"
Ikuku wiped her eyes and raised a brow.
"Why, yes Naru" "where did that come from?"
Naru looked down.
"Well I'm not even your own flesh and blood and you welcomed me into your house, looked at me when you spoke to me, even offered me something to drink"
Ikuku felt a little guilty but remained firm.
"Naru this is completely different" "Usagi decided to do something without discussing it with anyone not even her boyfriend"
"I didn't want my daughter associating with him from the beginning but would she listen?" "NO"
Naru stood up and took a deep breath.
"Mrs Tsukino I can understand why you're angry but if you're not going to talk to Usagi chan then you may as well not talk to me"
Ikuku rose to her feet and put one hand on Naru.
"Don't be ridiculous Naru chan" She shook her head at the red haired girl, before narrowing her dark eyes and asking why ever not?
"Because…." Naru closed her eyes and scrunched up her fists.
"IM PREGNANT TOO"
TO be continued.
