Chapter eleven : Choices

''So Usagi , I think it's time we have a talk , don't you think ?'' He asked the smirk never leaving his face.

'' So you can ruin my life even more ?'' Usagi asked with a cold look on her face which was very rare. He had seen her mad before but this time she seemed beyond mad. Even beyond furious.

'' No , don't worry. Actually i'm here to make a peace offer.''

Usagi gazed at the black haired man with a suspicious look on her face. What was he upto this time ? ''Well let me hear it. I just hope you won't waste my freaking time.''

'' I won't.'' Was all he said before gesturing her to follow him. At first she just stood there thinking of what she could do best now. But after awhile she decided she didn't really have anything to lose and closed the door behind her following Mamoru.

A few minutes later they were sitting on a bench in the park they used to go together before their break-up. People who walked by gave them worried looks but didn't do anything else and just walked on. Usagi looked rather uncomfortable while Mamoru seemed to be very calm. A little too calm for the blonde's taste.

''So...'' Usagi started but was cut off by Mamoru who suddenly spoke up.

''There's no need for that hate you're feeling towards me. I've given up on trying to win you back. I messed up and i'm sorry.'' He whispered causing the blonde to look at him. What was he planning, he couldn't have changed that much in such short notice, could he? He had to be kidding or something like that. What happened to the cruel Mamoru she saw just a few hours ago?

When she didn't say anything and just kept looking at him he decided to go on with his little speech. ''I know this must sound weird but I now know how wrong I was hurting you like I did. Also i'm very well aware of the fact you hate me and aren't planning on coming back to me...But if you'd like we still can be friends.''

Usagi was too shocked to say anything. After she heard Mamoru cheated on her she was so sure she could hate him forever. She was sure she would be able to hurt him just like he had hurt her but here they were. Sitting in the park while the walls she had build around her heart slowly started to come down. Could she trust him? She knew trusting him could be a very dangerous stunt but then again, it was worth the try wasn't it ?

'' I'd like that...'' She finally managed to say as she saw Mamoru's frown turn into an honest smile.

'' I'm glad to hear that.'' He said placing his hand on her shoulder. For a second he could feel her stiffen up but then she calmed down and giggled softly. She didn't know why that sound was coming out of her mouth but somehow she felt so relieved and happy all of a sudden. The only thing that still bothered her was Rei. They still hadn't spoken to eachother after the night they had shared together and Usagi wasn't so sure she could ask Mamoru for help. After all she first had to start trusting him again. She couldn't really talk to Makoto and Ami about it since they seemed to have their own problems at the moment. Then there was Minako. The goddess of love. Minako had always been there to listen but Usagi still wasn't sure if she could ask the other blonde for help on this one. After all she was kind of afraid about how she would react when the young princess would tell Minako about the fact she had slept with Rei.

''Something is wrong isn't it ? If you don't want to be friends just say so Usagi, I'd understand.'' Mamoru's voice suddenly came causing the small blonde to snap out of her thoughts.

'' No, No it isn't about you this is about...well...''

'' You don't have to tell me.'' He said understanding Usagi wasn't able to trust him yet though he couldn't help it but smirk. he couldn't believe Usagi was really that naive and felt into his trap without any hesitation.

'' I know...'' The blonde whispered as she gazed up. Much to her own shock and dismay she saw Rei look at the both of them looking rather confused. First the expression on the raven haired girl's face was unreadable but not long after that it turned into something much worse. Anger and jealousy...

''Rei….'' Usagi whispered as Mamoru looked up to see what the blonde was looking up. When he saw Rei standing in front of them just a few metres away from them he winked at her. This was getting better and better by the minute...

'' Usagi..'' Rei whispered in the same tone as the blonde had used a few minutes ago. The angry look and the jealous look dissapeared from her face as it was replaced by a soft smile. ''It seems our princess is reunited with her prince...''

'' No!'' Usagi yelled jumping up and rushing over to the raven haired girl who pretended she didn't care of what she saw. Actually the thought of seeing Mamoru and Usagi together again hurted her. Somehow she knew they weren't a actual couple anymore but still, it pained her. After all Mamoru was up to something, she was sure of it.

The blonde stopped walking towards Rei when they were at just a few inches away from eachother. This would be the first time they talked ever since their night together. ''We...made up..but not as you think. Mamoru wanted us to become friends again and well...I agreed. There's no point in fighting right? Isn't that something we have learned out of all those fights?''

Rei nodded understanding where this was leading. Mamoru was trying to break them up by pretending he wanted to be Usagi's friend knowing she wouldn't like it. Eventually Rei and Usagi would end up in a fight and he would be more than willing to take care of the broken princess. There was no way she was going to lose Usagi to him again. After all just when she was about to confess her love for Usagi a long time ago before the silver crystal appeared and before they knew Usagi was their princess, something had stopped her. Maybe she had known deep down inside it wasn't the right time back then but it was now.

'' You're right love.'' Rei said pulling the blonde in a hug. Mamoru just stared at her with a cold look on his face while Rei did the same. Usagi was on the other hadn really suprised by her girlfriend's actions. First of all Rei had just hugged her in public and called her ;love.

'' Well i'll leave you two now.'' The black haired man said standing up from the bench and giving the two girls a warm smile before waving at them as he left. After he dissapeared into the crowd Usagi turned back to Rei who stared back at her with a loving gaze in her eyes.

'' I'm sorry for...everything..I love you.'' And with that she locked her lips with those of the blonde princess. Nothing was going to tear them apart. She wouldn't let it happen. She wouldn't allow it. After the feeling of warmth and love had overwhelmed the smaller blonde, Rei pulled back to look into her princess' eyes.

''I think we still have to talk about..'' But Usagi was silenced by the other girl's fingers on her lips.

With that Rei took a deep breath. ''I know that we still have to talk about that matter but for now, let's just enjoy being together and spend as much time as possible together, what do you think about it?'' Usagi only nodded in reply. After all spending her time with the ravne haired girl sounded like heaven to her. She had not been willing to admit it but when she and Rei hadn't talked about the night they had spent together she somehow feared Rei would hate her or that maybe she had done something wrong. Seeing that Rei was jealous over the fact Usagi and Mamoru were talking again, well it somehow made the small blonde girl feel happy. If Rei really was jealous it would mean she really cared about her. And for now that was all that mattered to the both of them.

''You know...''Suddenly Rei's voice came, causing Usagi to snap out of her thoughts and to look up at the taller girl who was holding her.''I've heard there is a dance tomorrow evening for rich and wealthy people, I happen to get some tickets from Haruka. She said she and Michiru had made other plans and I should take you with me.''

Usagi's eyes light up at the other's words. She had always dreamed of going to a dance surrounded by beautiful people and women in those chique and royal dresses. ''I'd love to go with you!'' She then yelled excited by the whole idea. ''I can wear the same dress as I wear as when I am the moon princess, I'd make all those women jealous of...'' She stopped talking when she looked up at Rei who was now staring at her sweetly.

''Love, everything would look great on you. And no matter what you'd wear , you'd always be the most pretty girl in the room. Everyone is already jealous of your beauty.'' Rei whispered into Usagi's ear. All the blonde could do was blush at her lover's words. After all, what could she say that would compare to Rei's words.

''I love you..'' Usagi then blurted before cupping Rei's face and plant a sweet and passionate kiss on the other's lips once more. Finally things were looking up for them.
