Chapter One: Usagi
Usagi awoke. She was still asleep, in away. She truned around to find Mamoru laying there next to her. She cuddled up with him. She then flet his arms wrap around her.
She smiled at leaned her head on his chest.
Mamoru kiss her forhead. "Good morning Usako."
Usagi looked into his eyes. "Good morning."
Mamoru drew her closer to him. He did not know what was better then having Usagi next to him every morning. He sat up and headed toward the closet.
Usagi turned her head, even though they where married she was not use to seeing him get dressed. She thanked each day that he was there with her. Since he had died in the battle with Galaxia she had made sure he would come back. She would make sure of it. "Mamoru." she began. "Since it is Saturday do you wanna do something?"
Mamoru stared at her. He smiled knowing that she would not look at him until he was dress. "I do have to go to work......" he truned away. "for an hour."
Usagi looked his way. She was distpointed. "You said you had weekends off."
Mamoru laughed. "Usako it is only an hour," he glanced at her. "60 mintues of 24 hours."
Usagi glared at him. "I do know how to read time!" she raised her voice. She giggled. "Ok, I'll spare sixty minutes if you make breakfest."
"Deal." Mamoru said. He bent down and kissed her forhead. "Besides, who would I spend sixty minutes with besides you? Well maybe with ChibiUsa."
Usagi nodded. "Just promise me..." she asked putting her face closer to his. "No more than three mirrors."
Mamoru stared at her and sat down next to her. Her face was loward. "Usako, that was a long time ago."
Usagi brought her head up. "But....."
Mamoru put his finger over her lips. "A long time ago. Lets forget it." he sat up and left.
Usagi looked at the ground. 'Yes.' she said to herself. 'A long time ago, but what if she ecsaps form her mirror?' she shivered. 'Or worse what if her daughter comes back?' Usagi put her robe on and walked down the stairs. She stopped by the bathroom and whashed her face. 'Maybe... Mamoru is right? I might be afarid to lose him.' she looked in the mirror. A different face was there. She looked and blinked. She then walked very fast down the stairs.
The aroma of chesse omlets filled the air. Usagi stodd next to Mamoru. She looked at the calaneder. Next week was when ChibiUsa would come home. Also next week was Mamoru's brithday. "Well since you are going to work...." Usagi looked at him. "I guess me and the others should window shoping for a a person, who remane nameless, whose brithday is next week?"
Mamoru looked at the calander. "Already?" he looked at Usagi. She was allready sereving out the orange juice. "Usako, grab some plates."
Usagi had allready done that. She even had the silverwear out. She smiled. "Mamoru, me and the girls where going to throw a party for ChibiUsa." she looked at him. "I got a note form Setsuna saying that ChibiUsa and Elios are married."
"Good for her!" Mamoru smiled. "I think Elios is a perfect husband."
Usagi agreed. "Besides, who else would you let ChibiUsa marry?" she wrote something on the calaneder. "Well I can think of people to come to the party. Ami, Rei, Makoto, Minako, Haruka, Michiru, Setsuna and Hotura. Anyone else?"
"Luna, Artemis." Mamoru said while serving the food. "And Diana but ChibiUsa is probley bringing her with her."
Usagi nodded. She wrote everyone's name on a papper. "Lets see. Ami may not beable to come since she is a doctor now. Rei and Chad are parcticing the rotine for the party. Makoto can make the gooides." she paused. "Minako..... could bring the guys?"
Mamoru laughed. "Maybe. She could get people that went to school with there."
"Yeah." Usagi agreed. "Haruka would stand around. Michiru said she would play the voilin when Rei is singing. Setsuna could check the names on a list, and Hotaru can be a suprise."
------------------------------------------------------------
Makoto, Ami, Minako and Rei sat at Rei's temple waiting for Usagi. "Well at least one thing about Usagi is still the same." Rei laughed.
Makoto saw Usagi. "You can tell it is her because of the meatballs." she looked in her backpack. "I brought some cookies."
Minako took one. "Well you still bring treats!" she chugged it down.
"You know Minako." Ami said. "You need a check up."
Minako stared at her. "You have not changed at bit!"
Rei gasped. "Look!" she pointed to Usagi and Mamoru.
Ami lefted an eyebrow. "Yes?"
Minako and Makotot gasped. "They... are kissing!"
True enough before Usagi got out of the car they kissed each other. "If we are not hear by the time we get back, we'll probley be shopping."
Mamoru nodded the drove off.
Makoto ran done the stairs. "Usagi! You kissed him!"
Usagi looked troubled. "So? He have been married for three years now."
Makoto offered her a cookie. "So why did you call us?"
"Well ChibiUsa's party is next week." Usagi said. "And I needed to know what you where all doing, to make sure I got it right."
Ami pulled out a list. "Well I am going. I am going to desine games."
Rei laughed. "Ami! ChibiUsa would be a grown, or almost, woman."
Ami blushed. "Sorry."
Usagi walked in Rei's room with the others. She then looked in the mirror. Her own refecltion.
Rei put her hands on Usagi's shoulders. "Are you alright?"
Usagi nodded. "When I was in the bathroom another face was in there."
Rei looked to her friends. "But Nephiria, is trapped forever."
Usagi nodded. "But...... it was like a younger version of her."
---------------------------------------------------------------
Mamoru stopped at a store. He walked around then saw a iteam. He picked it up. "I wonder if ChibiUsa would like it."
"Well it seems you have your sites on a very old statue." the clerk said. "Said that any man that touched it would fall in love with her."
Mamoru put it down. "Her?"
"Princess Kimon." the clerk told him. "It is also said that a little mirror inside captures a mans heart, but I do not beleave it."
"Maybe you should." a female voice said.
Mamoru spun around. And looked at the girl. She had dark red hair tintied with black and wore a uniform. "Who are you?"
"I am Kyamin." the woman said. She picked up the iteam and touched a jewel on it. "It is also said, a man and a woman kind find each other and fall in love." she gave it to Mamoru. "We are having a sale today. 40% off."
Mamoru took it and noticed a painting. "What is that?"
"Oh," Kyamin said. "That is one of the last pictures of the Princess & Prince sereies. The girl in it the daughter of the Prince of the Earth and the Princess of the Moon." she then went to the counter. "I am about to get off of work. Would you like to be that?"
Mamoru looked down at the statue of the maiden. "Uh I do not think my wife's cousin would like it for a wedding gift."
Kyamin nodded. "I think not." she walked to the room.
Mamoru walked out and got in the car. He saw out of the corner of his eye a woman watching him.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
A laugh filled the air. "Kinute! Get that man!"
"Kill him ma'am?"
"NO." the voice said. "Make him mine."
"But he did not buy the object......"
"But...." the voice snapped. "Did he tuch it?"
"Yes ma'am."
"Now, wait tonight, then effect his dreams........"
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Usagi looked into a window. "I don't think Mamoru is intrested in this kinda thing." She pulled herself away and looked at her friends.
"How about a docter or someother kind of book?" Ami suggested.
Usagi made a funny face. "No, he has a libary you know."
Rei saw something. She walked over to it. "Dose he like moives?"
Usagi walked over. "He has all those."
"Shopping for men is diffecalt." Minako pointed out.
"You are not even shopping!" Makoto said. "Usagi, how about a rice cooker?"
Usagi blinked. "Uh..... I do not know."
Ami looked at her. "Why do you just wait until he you know points something out then buy it?"
Usagi looked at the others. They where nodding. "Ok."
"Why don't we go to the movies?" Minako suggested.
"Why?" Rei said. "So you can look at cute clerks?"
Minako blushed. "Well.... hu...... I wanted to see a moive, toghter like we used to."
Usagi nodded. "I mean we have not been toghter lately."
Rei looked down. "Me and Chad are going on tour this year."
"You finally got a hit?" Minako asked.
"Are you a lead singer?" Makoto asked.
"I am the one who rights the songs." Rei said.
A beeping noise filled the air. "Hi meatball head." a girl said. "Long time no see."
"Haruka!" Usagi said. "Is Hotaru with you?"
"No," Michiru said. "But Hotaru and Setsuna are meeting us at the moive theahter."
"You wanna hop in?" Haruka asked.
"We where going to the theahter to!" Minako said. "Lets go!"
All the girls hoped in and drove off. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
