Day Six

Story Thirty-Two: Last Bouquet

Summary: Twisted version of 173 because Usagi Tsukino doesn't do long distance relationships nor does she say good-bye in the typical fashion.

--

"For a year," Mamoru paused, his colored eyes watching the streaming water carefully. "Maybe a little longer. I won't be back, is that ok?"

"Mamo-chan," Turning away from the river Usagi's azure colored orbs caught his own with a slight smile. "I think," She grinned. "We should break up," She stated firmly.

Mamoru, expecting anything but the statement that graced her lips spluttered. "W-what?"

"Long distance relationships," Usagi sighed. "They just, never work out."

"Yes they do," Mamoru insisted. "If you love-"

"-From the other side of the planet, Mamo-chan you know me. I can barely stand it if you're across town and I can't come see you right away, imagine this." Defiantly Usagi crossed her arms over her chest. "We should just break up."

"Usako, you just need to give it a chance," Mamoru swallowed, his mind desperately grasping for straws. "Even celebrities have to deal with long distance relationships; it's a sign of maturity."

Snorting Usagi locked azure with the ocean, "You're not that cute."

Rendered speechless Mamoru could only stare down at his petite girlfriend.

"Besides, what if you come back and I've fallen in love with someone else?" Usagi inquired, raising her eyebrows towards her hairline.

Squaring his shoulders Mamoru glared down at her with confidence practically seeping out of his pores. "Then I'll fight for you and win back your heart."

Usagi giggled, patting him on the arm. "No, you won't," She stated, waving her hand dismissively. "You'd wish me luck in my new relationship like a good gentleman would- or should I say, like a good friend would, because you've been officially downgraded. Friend, Chiba-san."

A primal sounding growl ripped its way up Mamoru's esophagus as he caught Usagi's arm upon seeing her beginning to walk away from him. "I'm not saying it will be easy, but our love will survive this."

Usagi snorted rudely once again, "The future can always change." She replied coldly.

Drastically Mamoru's eyes widened, fiercely he yanked the smaller girl back, pulling her into his embrace. "Damnit Usako stop being difficult."

"What do you want me to do," Usagi inquired with hard eyes. "Send you off with a smile?"

"This," Mamoru swallowed, trying to regain his composure. "Will be good for the future, our future. I can provide for you and," He gently placed his hand on her flat stomach, "Anyone else that should happen to come along with a good education Usako."

"I hate the future, the present is so," Usagi paused, searching for the correct word. "Now."

"I'll miss you too," Mamoru whispered in her ear, the simple statement was enough to leave her undone causing her to slump against his torso. Titling her head up with his index finger he rested his forehead against hers. "It will be for the best but please excuse my selfishness," He pleaded, reaching in his pocket for a small velvet box. "Usako," He began, presenting the small box to her.

Opening it Usagi caught sight of the heart shaped engagement ring.

Usagi blinked, shifted her eyes towards Mamoru's hopeful ones and then blinked once again. "Dick move," She bit her lower lip. "So, what this is supposed to place me on reserve for the next year or more," She said mockingly. "Chiba-san, enjoy your celibacy because while your gone I'm going to be flirting shamelessly-" Her rant was abruptly cut off when Mamoru suddenly crushed his lips to hers.

"Damnit Usagi! You're going to be a good girl and wait for me! The next year won't be easy on either of us but we're going to survive, its just going to take work. Everyday your going to call me and write to me and, and damnit! Accept the ring!" Mamoru yelled.

"Mamo-chan," Usagi simply stared up at him. "I've never seen this forceful side to you before," Pressing her body up to his she craned herself up on her tiptoes to whisper seductively in his ear. "It's kind of sexy."

Mamoru could only blink, "Really?" He asked, making a move to press his smooth lips against hers once more but she easily dodged his advance.

"But," Usagi smirked at him, taking a few steps away. "I'm still not giving you anything," She playfully called out over her shoulder. "Like I said, enjoy your celibacy."

Catching her hand Mamoru forcefully spun her around, "Shut up," He commanded before roughly crushing his lips to hers again in a bone searing kiss.
