Usagi could hear Mamoru giving Minako the third degree threw the apartment door.

She opened the door quickly so that her husband could leave her savior alone.

"Geeze Mamo chan. Chill out. I was just asking Minako what wine she was telling me she liked." Usagi shook her head and went to the kitchen a bottle of wine in her hand and a bag in the other.

Minako stuck her tongue out at Mamoru.

"Usagi! Why are you always late?" Rei said annoyed.

Usagi pulled out another bottle. "I got your favorite too, Rei chan… but I could always take it back." Usagi taunted.

"Usagi! So glad you are here." Rei changed her tone making Usagi giggle.

She felt Mamoru wrap his arms around her. He placed his head on her shoulder and breathed her in. He paused.

"Usako… come with me for a minute." He told her grabbing her hand and pulling her with him to one of the bedrooms.

"GUYS! NOT IN MY ROOM!" Jadeite yelled.

Usagi laughed.

"Mamo chan?" Usagi said worried. "I know I should have called but."

Mamoru was next to her. He smelled her again… moving to her face and smelling her hair.

"Usako, you smell like blood."

"EW!" She said quickly and she pulled a strand of hair to her face to sniff it.

"Mamoru… what does blood smell like?" She asked him curiously as she sniffed her hair.

He looked her over. Touched her face and her neck. Searching.

"Mamoru, you are starting to scare me and I am really hungry." She pouted as she held back from crying out in pain.

She could hear the thunder in the distance. He was angry. So she kissed him which turned in to him deepening the kiss and pulling her bruised body toward him. Tears pricked her eyes as the pain shot through her body.

"Mamo chan." She pulled away quickly. "Food please." She begged.

He wanted to argue more but he gave in pulling her back to where everyone else was.

Usagi was on campus running a very important errand. She so much happier than she was before and it showed. Two weeks with Minako and their fake internship had made a huge difference. More time to cover for one another, better excuses, and less wounds. She recalled how they scared the shit out of Motoki for fun of course and then gave him back his memories. Having Toki on the team wasn't that bad because he didn't fight.

Plus, he had known the girls since they were like four.

Mamoru did not seem as suspicious as the semester was about to end and he had finals. Everything was going okay.

Usagi practically skipped to Mamoru's classroom, holding his lunch that he had forgotten this morning. She walked down the hallway toward where she assumed his classroom was. She looked around until she finally spotted someone. A man about Mamoru's age. He had super shaggy brown hair and spectacles on.

"Excuse me." She smiled sweetly. The man didn't look up from where he sat outside the classroom.

"Huh?" He mumbled.

"Uhh, would you happen to know where I could find Chiba Mamoru?" She asked.

The man looked up at her annoyed. He observed her quickly.

"I am going to go ahead and spare you from his royal coldness." He started and he stood up and looked her over. She wanted to laugh but she resisted.

"You're not his type." She wanted to retort but he stopped her. "A ton of girls come in here every day to get his attention and he turns them down. Plus, rumor is that he is married."

She smirked at him. He went on.

"Look you are too pretty for him. You look sweet and nice. He is so cold his wife must be some… vixen who eats children or something."

"Vixen who eats children?" She laughed loudly and the man seemed mesmerized with her.

"Yes. So save yourself from the despair of perfect Chiba Mamoru. You seem too good for him." He finished but his mouth went dry as he watched her.

"Well I assure you I am not worried but I appreciate your concern. So do you mind pointing me in his direction." She said sweetly, the amused smile never leaving her face.

"I am telling you that he will not be interested. He's a cold heart…"

"Usako…" Mamoru's voice came through like a caress and the man noticed the complete and total adoration in Mamoru's's voice.

"Never mind. I found him." She told the man. She smiled sweetly.

"Usako… this is a surprise." He told her, his eyes looking over her features. She blushed.

"You forgot your lunch." She said handing him the box.

"I am sorry. Did you have to wait long?" He took her hand.

The man seemed dazed by the change.

"No. I had help." She pointed to the man next to her.

Mamoru narrowed his eyes at the shaggy man. "Sakuyama." Mamoru said stiffly. His normal demeanor coming back.

"This is your…." Sakuyama started.

"My wife." Mamoru told him curtly as he saw the look on Sakuyama's face of disbelief.

"Mamo chan." She nudged him. "Sorry we are working on his social skills. Chiba Usagi." She said introducing herself.

"Sakuyama Toshii." He told her with a sad look.

"Thank you for your help. I appreciate your keeping other women away from my husband." She winked.

Mamoru rolled his eyes the he turned to her. "Usako, wait a moment and we can have lunch together. I will be right back." He kissed her temple. She nodded.

She watched him walk down the hallway.

"Who was that?" Sakuyama said to himself. The change in Chiba san had him so confused.

"I am sorry. Mamo chan can be cold sometimes."

"And arrogant and rude. Ever since he transferred in to this department I can't beat him. I was the best until he came." Sakuyama snarled.

"Why don't you just worry about you doing the best and maybe if you don't focus so hard on beating Mamo chan you may de-stress enough to beat him." Usagi suggested with a smile.

"No… it won't work. He has to have a weak spot I can exploit." He said pounding his hand in to his fist. Usagi giggled. Sakuyama looked up at Usagi appraising her.

"Hummm." He said… "I wonder."

She looked over at him and she saw a cold calculated brain at work.

"I wonder if I kiss the great Chiba Mamoru's wife what he will do… Would he start to fail?"

Usagi backed away from him.

"That's silly." In a giggle, her voice a tad higher than normal.

But he advanced on her grabbing her hand.

"Sakuyama san, don't touch me." She said pulling her hand out of his grasp.

"It's just a hypothesis. I need to try it. It's worth it to take Mamoru down."

Usagi didn't want to hurt Sakuyama. If she did there would be gossip everywhere but he lunged at her and grabbed her arms.

"It's just at test. Stand still so I can kiss you." He said squeezing her arms as he moved in.

She turned her head and then he was off her. A whirlwind of a storm broke out outside. Usagi looked up to see that Mamoru had his hand tight on Sakuyama's arm. He threw him down in to the chair.

"If we were not at school right now you would not be walking for weeks. If you ever." Thunder boomed outside. "Ever touch my wife again I will not be so kind."

Sakuyama cowered and nodded his head that he agreed.

"Mamo chan.." Usagi went and touched his arm gently. "It's okay. Calm down."

He turned and looked at her. His eyes softening.

He turned back toward Sakuyama. "Yes, she is my weak spot but you have just fueled me so much that you will never beat me. So… thank you."

Usagi huffed. "Sakuyama… just do your best. I am sure that Mamo chan isn't even going to go in to the same field of medicine so it doesn't matter."

Sakuyama looked up in disbelief. She was right.

"I am sorry Chiba Usagi." Sakuyama said standing and bowing.

She smiled. "It's okay. In fact, you helped out. The grass needed to be watered. Come on Mamo chan." She pulled him toward the door. She turned back around. "Oh! And if my friend Ami chan didn't transfer to Toyko Uni, you would both never be number one. Bye!"

"Stop blaming the weather on me." Mamoru practically whined as they walked away.

"These youma are from the 'Dranic Centi Star System.'" Minako said pulling up as much information as she could. "It seemed that this star system has been closed off by the ancients due to an evil so great it can take over whole planets."

"How then could they get here and what do they want?" Usagi said looking over the picture of the Tau system.

Minako's brow furrowed. "Clearly our planet."

"Wow, we should just start guessing that from the start." Usagi said. "We could possibly use it for all known information. Like, Usako, why can't you cook? Oh someone trying to take over the planet."

"Minako, do you really need that new dress? Why yes I do, someone is trying to take over the planet." Minako mocked Kunzite.

"Usagi, does everything have to be pink?" Usagi fake sobs, "But someone was trying to take over the planet! Wahhhhhh."

"Usagi, you may be a genius." Minako said with a laugh.

"I know." She smiled.

"So, how long do you think we have to wait until we know who is behind this?" Minako said shoving a piece of gum in her mouth. She put her feet up on the computer consol.

"I hope soon. Mamoru is all super sensitive and worried all the time about the death thing." Usagi said scrolling through more information.

"Yeah, why did that happen? We all died in the battle against Beryl and Metelia." Minako asked her interest peaked.

"I think we should send Luna a message. Maybe she knows something out this system since she has been on Mau." Usagi told Minako ignoring her question.

"Yeah that's a good idea and don't try and throw me off track, Usagi." Minako told her.

"It was nothing." Usagi said off hand. "We should head up and get going. Mamoru is going to be home soon."

"Usagi, Mamoru was sobbing. I saw him. The cold hearted man you married sobbed at your bedside."

Usagi bit it lip and had to turn away.

"You can't freak out, okay? And you can't tell the others if we ever have to bring them in to this mess. Promise me." Usagi said sternly.

She nodded. "I promise."

"When I made the wish on the crystal for everyone to live happy normal lives… I had to pay a penance. I had to relive each one of your deaths. One after the other and Mamoru was there. He… he kept my heart pumping after each death."

Minako looked like she could have passed out.

"I didn't know when I did it! But I would do it all over again if I had to. I don't regret it."

Minako lunged at Usagi hugging her so tight.

"You are stupid!"

"I know. I just love you all so much."

"And I love you too."

"Finally, the semester is over." Mamoru said propping his feet up on the guy's coffee table and sipping the beer in his hand. He was hoping now that his stress was over with he would feel his and Usagi's bond again. He touched his chest missing it. It had been two weeks of nothing but studying and staying late at school.

"The work week is over." Kunzite said mimicking Mamoru.

"Where is everyone?" Mamoru asked looking around at the surprising quiet apartment.

"It's the weekend. People go on dates and Minako is with Usagi having wedding planning night."

Mamoru raised an eyebrow. He had never taken Usagi on a date.

"Why are you looking so white?" Kunzite asked Mamoru.

"I just realized that I have never taken Usagi on a date."

Kunzite spit out his beer everywhere. "What!"

Mamoru really thought hard about his time with her. There was their honeymoon but after the first time they consummated their marriage they never really stopped meaning they didn't leave the hotel room. And they were both so busy with school, and now Usagi with work they missed each other a lot.

"We have been… busy." Mamoru said hesitantly.

"I thought Minako told me that you two lived together for two almost three years before you were married." Kunzite said as he wiped up his mess.

Mamoru went red at his statement. "Those were different times."

"Did you take our old fiancée out on dates or is it just Usagi you don't go out with?"

Mamoru was now not only red but also flaming hot.

Kunzite burst out laughing. "You're an asshole." He laughed loudly.

"Nice. No wonder Usagi has been acting super strange lately and disappearing all the time. She most likely expects me to take her somewhere and instead of staying at home."

Kunzite's eyes flashed to Mamoru. "Usagi keeps disappearing?"

Mamoru took a swig of his beer. "Yeah, for work. Or she comes home late. But she has her own life and I am so busy with school I don't blame her."

Kunzite looked perplexed.

Jadeite came walking in the door his eyes wide when he saw Mamoru. He placed his keys on the side table and slipped out of his shoes in to his house slippers.

"Guys… I just witnessed the craziest thing." He started.

Mamoru and Kunzite just laughed. Jadeite was always telling them he saw strange stuff. Last time he swore he saw a dog walking a human.

"Don't laugh. It involves Usagi and Minako." Jade said walking toward the kitchen he looked over at his friends.

"Got your attention now, don't I." Jade smirked.

Kunzite finally gave. "Okay, what did you see."

Jade's face went serious as she leaned over the counter to start his tale.

"Rei and I had just made it back to the temple after our date. When we got back she blew me off. Basically telling me to go the hell away. I figured she was just PMSing or something but she was acting really strange at dinner. Like really strange. Super out of it. I couldn't even get a grasp on what she was feeling. I mean thinking. She thought I left but I figured she just needed time alone while she did a fire reading. So she was taking a while and I just figure I will leave get some ice cream to help with her shit mood and I see Usagi and Minako come up the steps of the temple. I was going to go say hi but I saw Rei was also outside… like standing there in the center of the courtyard and I could tell she is just pissed off. I could feel her fury that's how heated she was. The moment Usagi made it to Rei, she slapped the shit out of her. Right across the face."

Mamoru stood up quickly. "She what!"

"Chill Mamoru." Jade looked at him. "Usagi took it like a pro. Didn't back down just stood there staring at Rei… looking strange. Minako at her side and then Rei starting yelling like a crazy person." Jadeite froze for a minute keeping something back clearly thinking.

"What the hell." Kunzite said under his breath.

"What was she saying?" Mamoru asked still not sitting down. His arms were crossed in front of his chest.

Jade popped open a beer and took a swig. "I love Rei and all but she sounded nuts. Going on and on about how in the hell Usagi could do this alone, which I have no clue what she was talking about. Seriously there was no context clues to even try and put things together. She went on about how she was stupid odango atama and doesn't care about her life or her friends and family all with a few choice words. Then it got creepy. Usagi was livid. I mean her stare was so cold…she didn't even flinch at Rei's words. She looked… regal. I would have cowered if I saw Rei."

Jadeite could see that they were all very intrigued. "But not Usa. They stood at a standstill until Rei visibly calmed down and Usagi told her that she did it for all of them… something about having a normal life and she would do it all again if she had to."

Mamoru was shaking he was so mad and scared. It was like he could feel the earth under him move and it did. It shook.

"So, Rei… and I honestly almost went and broke up their love fest, Rei brought up Usagi dying… you know after the wedding. She broke down then crying. Telling Usagi how much she loves her and she kept repeating twelve times, twelve times. Then Minako starts crying and Usagi starts crying and then I left. Got the hell out of there. Too much estrogen."

"Where are they now?" Mamoru asked looking at his phone, trying to calm himself down.

"No clue." I tried calling Rei and she didn't answer.

Mamoru dialed Usagi's number. She also didn't answer. He sat back in the chair sulking.

"Girls and hormones never really worked for me… I don't even know if I should ask Rei about it. I wasn't supposed to see that… and I don't think Rei wanted me to know anything about it." He finished quietly. His hand touched his chest subconsciously.

"It's their business." Kunzite said finally. "We should not get involved. When they want to tell us they will."

"Like hell." Mamoru growled. "It sounds like my wife and your fiancé and your girlfriend are doing something that could get them killed."

"Please, what are they? Yakuza or something." Jadeite said with a laugh. A crazy thought of Minako and Usagi joining a yakuza drift team crossed his mind… he shook it off. Now that was nuts.

"I trust Minako. If she is doing something and she needs my help she will tell me." Kunzite said eyeing Mamoru. "You probably do things that she doesn't know about either and Usagi has been in love with you since the moment she saw you so it's not like she would ever cheat. So chill out."

Just then the three girls in question walked through the door laughing and chatting animatedly. Mamoru could tell that Usagi was glowing. She looked so happy that he wouldn't bring it up.

Mamoru gave the guys a look that said 'fine I will zip it.' But that didn't mean he wasn't going to poke around.

"Mamo chan." Usagi said coming to give him a kiss on the cheek. "Usako." He said looking at her face to see if was bruised or bleeding where she had been slapped. Nothing.

"Rei, I didn't know you were with the girls." Mamoru said as offhand as he could.

"We met up at the temple." Rei said as she opened a bottle of wine.

"How was wedding planning?" Kunzite asked curiously.

"Could have been better. Usagi hates the orange I picked out for the bridesmaid's dresses." Minako sniffed.

"They are ugly, Minako. Go with a darker orange and I am all in but I will not look like a creamsicle." Usagi argued with her.

"Reiiiiii." Minako whined.

"What? I look good in everything." Rei said going to sit by Jadeite.

Usagi came and sat on the arm of the chair Mamoru was sitting in.

"How were your tests? Or do I even have to ask?" She asked him, her eyes sparkling curiously.

He wrapped his arms around her waist and patted her leg. "You don't have to ask."

She giggled and kissed him on the temple. "My smart husband."

"After you finish your glass of wine, do you want to go home?" He asked suggestively in her ear. She licked her lips.

Totally going home.

888888888888888888888888888

Mamoru didn't bring up what he had heard from Jadeite last night but he felt like he was watching Usagi way closer than normal. But she acted normal, following her same routine.

She was lying in his arms naked as the day she was born. She gave a sigh of contentment as she ran her fingers over his chest.

"Usako."

"Mamochan." She answered.

"Would you like to go out to dinner tonight? Just the two of us?" He felt her freeze next to him. She pushed herself up so she could look at his face.

"Are you toying with me?" Her brow furrowed. He felt bad and caressed her face.

"No, I am not." He said sternly.

Her one eye narrowed at him. "Like a date?"

He had to chuckle at how cute she looked.

"Yes, Usako. Like a date."

"Just you and me?" She asked again hesitantly.

"Yessss. That is what a date is after all, right?"

She squealed.

"Usa!" he said but she shut him off with a kiss.

8888888888888888888888888

Usagi gave herself an appraising look. She was wearing a royal blue, asymmetrical layer dress that was shorter in the front and longer in the back. Simple strapped stiletto's on her feet. She had curled her hair and it cascaded like golden waves down her back. Two simple diamond studs in her ears.

Usagi's mouth dropped when she saw how handsome Mamoru looked in his black suit. It was tailored perfectly for him, Usagi made sure of it. He would be a king one day and she had to make sure he had the best. His white shirt was open at the top and he looked just like a model.

"How do you always look so amazing?" He asked her a small smile on his lips.

"Lot's of sugar, no sleep and a husband that makes me look good when I am on his arm." She smirked at him.

The moment they made it downstairs Hina was flashing away with her camera. Mamoru was so annoyed but Usagi just laughed.

"Ma, we have to go. Reservations." He told her putting his hand up to block the lens.

"Have fun you two!" Hina waved from the doorway while Tomomi dragged her back in.

Outside was her Porsche. She eyed Mamoru warily.

"Your father taught me." He smiled.

She still looked wary.

"Ease, up Usa. It's not like Hauka taught me." He smiled and opened the door for her.

They pulled up to the hotel that they would be eating dinner in. The valet opening the door for Usagi. Mamoru came around to offer his wife his arm.

888888

"That wasn't so bad, Mamo Chan. But maybe you should take some classes from Haruka." She smiled at him. He let out a chuckle.

"I figured we could have drinks in the bar first and our reservation is at seven thirty." He told her walking her toward the very popular hotel lounge.

He sat her at a table and walked to the bar.

Usagi was so very excited. A date… in public… with her husband. She watched him at the bar getting drinks, other women looking at him but she knew he only had eyes for her.

"Usagi?" She heard Mamoru say her name with that same affection.

She looked up at him and he was with an older gentleman.

Usagi stood and Mamoru handed her a glass of champagne.

"Usagi I would like to introduce you to my professor, Dr. Tanaka."

She bowed and gave a smile. "It is a pleasure to meet you."

"You as well Chiba san." He told her a twinkle in his eye.

"Usagi, please." She gave him that sweet smile again.

"Usagi then. Your husband is one of the brightest student's I have taught in a very long time. He will go very far in the medical world." Dr. Tanaka praised.

Usagi beamed at Mamoru. "I hope he is not showing off." She joked and the doctor laughed.

"Usako." Mamoru said shaking his head with a smile.

"Of course not. It is nice to see him not so studious though." The doctor looked at Mamoru who had color in his face and a smile on his lips. He was so unlike the cold, focused student he was normally in class.

"No, he is not a show off. Always asks the right questions. Mamoru san will make a fantastic doctor one day."

Usagi beamed at her husband.

"Thank you, Dr. Tanaka. It means a lot to hear so." Mamoru bowed his head.

"I am here for a conference actually, a meeting of the minds so to speak. I would love introduce you to a few people." He gave Mamoru a look that spoke, do not blow this opportunity.

Mamoru looked to Usagi who really wanted to say no. But instead she smiled at him and nodded glad that she had shut off the bond.

"That is more than generous, Dr. Tanaka." Mamoru said with a nod.

"Please, bring your lovely wife and follow me."

888888888888

Usagi really pulled from her past life to get through this. She mingled and laughed in all of the right places. Dr. Tanaka introduced them to so many people and Mamoru seemed in his element but Usagi was even more so in hers.

He watched occasionally as Usagi charmed the pants off of the room. He was complimented so many times on his lovely wife.

He didn't know where she had learned to infiltrate a room of well-known doctors but he was impressed.

Usagi on the other hand was really irritated because their dinner reservation came and went and her first date with her husband had turned in to her charming the court. She reminded him at least three times but he kept getting pulled in other directions. Every person in the room trying to convince Mamoru to join their field in medicine. She would do anything for Mamoru and she didn't want to keep tabs but she was starting to think there were a lot of things he would not do for her.

She looked at her phone again and it was 9pm. She was over it and she gracefully excused herself as she walked over to Mamoru who was talking to two men she of course assumed were more doctors.

"Mamoru." She said touching his arm.

Mamoru looked down at her almost irritated that she interrupted him. Had she been rude?

"Chiba san, is this your wife?" One of the men asked.

He nodded. "My wife, Usagi." He said with a smile.

She bowed. "Excuse me gentlemen." She said so sweetly that they looked goo goo eyed at her. "May I borrow my husband for a brief moment."

They nodded. He followed her away from listening ears.

"Mamoru, I know that this is a big deal and all but it's past 9pm and I would really like to eat." She told him. Her blue eyes trying not to look hurt or disappointed.

Mamoru looked at his watch and paled. "Oh, Usako. I am so very sorry. I lost track of time."

She just nodded and shrugged her shoulders.

"Let me say goodbye. Stay right here." And he kissed her on the temple.

Fifteen minutes later Usagi was done. She left walking right out of the hotel and to the alley where she transformed. She called Minako trying not to cry.

"Do you have time for me, V-chan." She sniffed.

888888888888

Usagi and Minako sat in a local yaki nikuya. They were drinking beer and grilling meat. It was not until 10pm did Mamoru call Usagi to ask where she was. She hit the ignore button and he called again.

"Seriously, Usagi. He maybe the Prince of Earth but he can be such a douche. Why do you put up with him?" She said as she poured Usagi more beer.

Usagi sighed and skewered a piece of meat. "I really was not too bothered at first. It was good for his future but he didn't even realize I was gone for an hour. I mean, seriously. What a Baka."

Her phone rang again. She hit ignore and sent it to voicemail.

He text her. "Where are you?"

She huffed. "On a date." She text back.

He called again.

She hit ignore again and Minako laughed.

"Are you going home tonight?" Minako asked her curiously.

She drank some more beer. "I dunno. I may go to the apartment and sleep there. I just can't believe the nerve of Mamo chan sometimes."

Her father did follow through on the apartment. It wasn't like she could stay at the guy's apartment anymore and sleeping on the couch in the Crown was just silly. It was modern, large with two bedrooms. Sadly, there was no Alfred.

Minako laughed as she text back with Kunzite.

Usagi flung a vegetable at her. "Hey! Stop being all lovely with your boy toy! You're rubbing it in my face."

"Sorry!" Minako wailed.

And they started chatting about Minako's wedding both girls super excited to get away for the event.

Fifteen minutes later a pissed Mamoru and amused Kunzite walked in to the restaurant.

Usagi didn't pay him any attention when he sat down next to her and Kunzite looked like he was trying not to laugh.

"You look beautiful, Usagi." Kunzite told her with a smile.

"Thank you. I always get dressed up like this for Minako." Usagi looked at her best friend in jeans and a cute top. "She clearly doesn't feel the same way about me though." Usagi pretended to be upset.

"Usako." Mamoru said softly.

She sniffed and ignored him pulling out her wallet to pay for Minako and her meal handing the money to the owner.

"Oh, and you pay too? Usagi, we should go out more often. I will dress up more." Minako said pretending to be impressed.

"I like to make a good impression." Usagi winked standing up and walking toward the door. Mamoru grabbed her hand. She grabbed it back.

"Usa! You're ditching me so soon for someone else after our date." Minako accused, her hand going to get heart.

Usagi looked at Mamoru. "Defiantly not my type." She snapped.

Kunzite tried not to laugh but he grabbed Minako's hand.

"I think we should go." He said quietly. Minako nodded.

Just then at the curb three suped-out cars pulled up in front of the two couples.

A guy stepped out smiling wide.

"YO! SERENA! MINA! Lookin good ladies" He threw up his hands at the girls and checking them out at the same time. Usagi and Minako looked at one another with an o-shit face on.

"Where have you girls been at? Got sick of taking all our money!" He said with a smile.

Minako had to look at Usagi and burst out laughing while Kunzite and Mamoru stood behind them unreadable expressions on their faces.

"So not funny ladies. You in tonight?" He asked now summing up Kunzite and Mamoru.

"We have retired, Kenji. Keep your money and invest in something better than that piece of shit." Minako told him and the other rider's in the car let out an "ooooooooooooooooo"

"Minako." Kunzite hissed.

"Hauty words Mina. Put your skills where your mouth is. You too Sere? You both are breaking my heart. I thought we had something." He told them with a smooth smile.

Usagi looked at Minako with a pity glace. She loved her drift team. She had to beg for months to get Minako to agree to it. Mamoru didn't miss the look that Usagi was giving Minako.

"Usa, no." Minako hissed at her.

Usagi scrunched her nose.

"Sorry, Kenji." Usagi said sullenly. "Good luck tonight. You of all people will need it." And Minako and Usagi both gave them their drift team hand signal at the same time Kenji gave his.

He got back in the car. "You know where to find me!" He said as they peeled out.

Mamoru looked at Usagi wide eyed. "You really did join a drift team! That wasn't drunken bullshit!"

Usagi and Minako just shrugged not giving anything away.

"What is a drift team? Who is Serena and Mina?" Kunzite asked looking perplexed.

"What else is on that damn bucket list?" Mamoru huffed at Usagi annoyed.

She glared at him

"Going on a date with Chiba Mamoru. That maybe on that list for a while." Usagi told him. Mamoru was trying so hard not to be furious at his wife.

Usagi's phone rang and Minako paused in the laughter that almost came up.

She answered it quickly.

"Rei chan?" Usagi asked.

"Yes. Are you okay? Okay, Minako is with me. We will."

Minako looked at Usagi. "We have to go Minako. Rei needs us."

"No. Where are you going?" Mamoru asked concern on his face.

"We are wasting time, Usa." Minako grabbed her hand and pulled her hand. "Let's go."

Kunzite was not happy either. "Minako? What the hell?"

Minako looked down at her phone.

The two girls took off running down the sidewalk. Mamoru and Kunzite looking stunned at one another. Minako pulled Usagi down an alley way and they jumped, so quickly to the roof. They transformed and took off running.

Mamoru and Kunzite stood at the entrance of the alleyway after they took off running after he girls. They were gone.

"What the fuck." Mamoru yelled pulling at his hair.

Kunzite looked just as baffled.

"I'm calling Jade to see if he knows where Rei is. I am so sick of this shit." Mamoru hissed grabbing for his phone.

Kunzite nodded.

"Jade? Where is Rei?" He asked quickly.

"What do you mean you don't know? She just called Usagi freaking out about something."

"I don't know! Why are hell do you think I am calling you?"

"Fine. I am with Kunzite." He hung up.

"We are meeting him at the apartment. Let's go." Mamoru snapped at Kunzite.

Author's Note:

Mamoru! So awesome with his fellow classmate! I always wish Naoki would have stood up for Kotoko more. (Naoki=jerkface0. But then, MAMORU That dick! But the date in "It started with a kiss' was a shit show as well. So Yeah. Mine had to be. Plus, I could see Mamoru actually doing what he did. And … I have this thing with the drifting. I had to let the readers meet them. Such a cool group of guys. Hand signals and all.
