Theme: # 4

Thank you to all of those who review! :D It means a lot! QUESTION: Should I end this collection at 30 or stay with the original 51?

The EEL: I take no offense whatsoever. I like Stephenie Meyer, she's one of my favorite authors, so I take it a HUGE compliment. :D Thank you!


Secret Admirer

Usagi gasped, clutching her chest tightly. Her tongue hung out of her mouth and she took deep breaths in. Her body was hunched over; the only support was her free arm on her knee. When she was finally breathing properly, she stood erect, opening the door to the classroom. Her jaw dropped. Students had yet to arrive; she was way too early. Her eyes flickered to the clock. Seven fifty-five. She groaned. Ami wasn't even there yet; Luna must've reset her alarm. She trudged her way to her desk. She slid into her seat, setting her school briefcase down beside her desk. A letter lay on top of the desk. Usagi looked around the room, trying to figure out which of the early students had left it there, but they weren't paying attention to her. She shrugged and picked it up, looking for the name of the sender, but it wasn't there. She opened the envelope and began to read. The handwriting was certainly one she wasn't familiar with.

Dear Usagi,
I don't understand how you managed to win my heart. I never expected to fall in love – I didn't want to. I was only acting as a knight for that one woman, but then you came along and showed me a different path than what was to be my destiny. I love you, Usagi. With all my heart and soul, I love you.

xoxo

Usagi reread the letter for the fifth time. She felt heat rush up to her cheeks as her eyes wandered around the room again, trying to find out who sent her the letter. And once again, there were no suspects. She forced the blush away and quickly shoved the letter into her bag when her friends walked in the door.

oooooooo

Usagi leaned back, her back pressed against the gate of the school roof. She'd chosen to eat her lunch on her own today so that she could reread the letter. It was sweet and she wanted to thank the sender properly, but that was nearly impossible. There were at least thirty students in her class that could've given it to her. She eliminated Makoto, Minako, Ami, Seiya, Taiki, and Yaten. They were her friends, so they couldn't have sent it to her. That left her with twenty-four students. She sighed and slid the letter back into her bag. She quickly finished her lunch and made her way back to the classroom. Her friends still hadn't returned from lunch, to which she was grateful for, because there was another letter on her desk. She smiled and skipped over to her desk, returning her bag to its place from earlier and ripped open the letter.

Dear Usagi,
I know you're looking for me. I'll give you a clue. We're close, but you misinterpret my actions.

Usagi's eyebrow rose in confusion. She reread the last line and wondered what it meant. She shoved the letter into her bag before the others could return. The sender was close to her, which meant that it wasn't any of the students in her class, except for the Seiya, Taiki, and Yaten. She shook her head. It couldn't be them, right? And she definitely knew that one of the girls were the sender. She was also close to Motoki, but he didn't go to her school. He wasn't even a high school student.

The possibilities of her admirer swirled in her head. She sighed and looked up. She hadn't noticed that class started – or that the teacher had given them work to do. Usagi slid out of her chair and up to the teacher. "May I go to the restroom?" The teacher nodded.

Usagi trudged to the girl's restroom. Get a grip on yourself, Usagi! She reprimanded herself. But she couldn't help it; she had to know. She sighed and turned on the sink. She cupped her hands under the running water and slumped over. She splashed her face twice before shutting it off and wiping her face with a paper towel. She smiled at herself in the mirror, turning on her heels and walking out of the door.

She'd taken longer than she thought; the teacher had already left and the students were on break. Her friends were nowhere to be seen, which was odd because they usually crowded around Usagi's desk to talk. She noticed that there was another letter on her desk. She frowned. Why didn't her admirer just give it to her personally? Was it because a girl was sending it to her? Usagi shuddered lightly at the thought and immediately began to regret turning the girl down, even if she hadn't done so yet. She picked up the letter and flipped it open.

Usagi,
You failed to figure out who I am. But don't worry. Meet me on the roof after class.

xoxo

oooooooo

At last, the bell had rung. Usagi quickly shoved her papers in her bag and nearly flew towards the door. Unfortunately, she was stopped by Minako.

"Usagi-chan, you haven't said a word to us all day. Is something wrong?" Minako cocked her head to the side, concern plastered on her face.

Usagi smiled and shook her head, "I'm fine."

Minako studied her skeptically, her eyes slightly narrowed. Usagi shuddered lightly. The other blond opened her mouth, but was interrupted by Ami and Makoto. Usagi groaned inwardly; she really needed to get to the roof.

"Come on, Usagi. Rei is waiting for us," Makoto reminded. Usagi's eyes widened. She had completely forgotten that they had a study session planned. She knew very well she couldn't skip this one; Rei would bite her head off. But she needed to figure out who her admirer was, so she can thank them – and reject them as painlessly as possible.

She sighed, "I'm going to be a little late guys. I have to do something." She blew the girls kisses and zoomed out of the classroom.

As soon as she was out of sight, Minako turned to Makoto and Ami. A smile broke out on each of their faces.

"Mission complete."

Usagi ran up the steps, skipping one and trying not to trip in the process. It amazed her that she made it without any injuries. She pushed open the door and frowned. The roof was barren. She was too late. She stepped out onto the room, shutting the door slowly. She walked over to one side of the gate, failing to see the other figure on the roof. She clutched the gate, sighing as she looked out at the city.

Slowly, the figure made his way over to her. She remained completely oblivious to him. He smiled. She never really paid attention to her surroundings. He wrapped his arms around her waist and pulled her close to him. She jumped, yelping a bit loudly. She began to struggle against him, but he tightened his grip on her. He nuzzled his face in her hair, kissing her head lightly, "Relax, Odango."

Almost immediately, her squirming ceased. She looked up at him so that her head was resting against his chest, "Seiya?"

He smiled, "It took you long enough."

Usagi blushed heavily, "You're my admirer?" He nodded.

Usagi's heart jumped in her chest. It slammed against her chest, almost as if it wanted to leap out of her chest. She smiled, "Thank you, Seiya. But – " She stopped herself. She didn't want to turn him down.

"But?" His melodic voice snapped her into reality. Her blush deepened, if that was possible. "Why didn't you just tell me personally?"

Seiya thought for a moment before chuckling softly and kissing her forehead, "Because it was more fun this way." Before she had a chance to reply, his lips attached themselves to hers.


If this was somewhat confusing, I'll explain. Minako, Makoto, and Ami were in on Seiya's plan to confess to her. At the end of class, they stalled her so that Seiya could leave first. In other words, the whole this was planned to get Seiya and Usagi together. :D

Forgive me if I didn't show that here. I wrote this while I was tired and under the influence of beautiful boys. o/o xD
