His sighs color the recycled air, carbon dioxide painting it a frosty grey while his tongue tasted of everlasting desolation. The LCD reflects her tragic reflection; perfect shinny bacon of unlimited warmth that has been ripped, by his own violation none-the-less, from his side.
Unconsciously, Mamoru shifts in his seat drawing his knees closer to his own chest in a desperate attempt to substitute his sunshine but comes up feeling empty. Another carbon laced sigh taints the air with painted bleakness, the pad of his thumb running quickly through the keys.
From Mamo-chan:
Empty without you. Need you, want you, right now.
5:43 pm
He holds his breath, viewing the silly little animation of an envelope being throwing in a mailbox with a taste of satisfaction. Now, he could only sit and wait while he rests his stubby cheek against his knee.
The phone vibrates, once, twice, a sugary ensemble takes to the air as color slowly begins to return to his pale cheeks.
From Usako:
Studying! Quit being emo.
5:45 pm
Mamoru simply stares down at the LCD screen, blinks, once, twice, thrice before he uses his index finger to close his flip phone while gripping it tightly in his fist. Aphrodite the evil seductions that she was took a duo set of barbwire and wrapped it around his still beating heart, crushing it under the metal spikes. His sighs color the air a miserable shade of obsidian; angrily he raked his free hand through his silken locks.
Never.
Never again would Mamoru give up the opportunity, the very right he was prevailed to, destined to obtain: to have his precious Usako to himself, ever again!
No matter the test score.
It was in that dark moment that a synapse was set ablaze, swiftly Mamoru flipped his cell phone open.
From Mamo-chan:
Study date? I'll teach you all that you need and more,
if you'd be so kind as to refill my heart
its been empty without you.
5:50 pm
Ghost-like fingertips pulled at the corner of his lips when the phone vibrated quickly after he'd sent out his message.
From Usako:
Didn't know you could be so corny.
Fine; but we're filling me up with knowledge
not anything sticky, unless its sugary. ;-)
And, I love you too.

AN: And so begins the 28 days of Romance to celebrate not only the everlasting love between Usagi and Mamoru but because of Valentine's Day. I would have started this on the first of February, but I didn't think of it until yesterday and I had to write four drabbles for this to work.
So spoil, spoil my little princess because its reader's choice. What that means is that at the end of each day I'm going to give you the summaries of all the drabbles that I've already finished (New ones will be added as soon as they are done, I'm hoping to finish ten by this weekend) and in your review you leave the name of the drabble you want to read next. The one with the most votes will be posted the following day.
Also to make this exciting I'm going to be doing a trivia contest: The first three to answer the question correctly will be given an advance copy of the chapter of your choice Pm'ed to you. (For those without an account be sure to leave your e-mail). But, if you're choice happens to be the most popular choice aka the next chapter I'll ask you to choose another one so you'll have one before anyone else does.
Trivia Question: Why is ChibiUsa's hair pink?
A. Chapter Three of The War of the Roses: Mamoru, Usagi and a bed full of roses, hmm I wonder what will happen? Rating: M
B. Gentleman's Alliance: Lewd, forceful digits have their own tale to weave. Rating: M
C. Untitled (for the moment): Having perfect vision isn't everything. Rating: T
See you tomorrow!
