Untitled (so far)

Rated PG-13 for violence, language, and suggestive themes. (hee hee! I feel like I'm writing a movie commercial^_^)

Konnichiwa minna ^_^ umm, this is the first big story that I've ever typed on ff.net. I've got plenty in my head and on paper, it's just a matter of getting them on the computer, but this one comes directly from me, so you probably won't have to wait too long in between chapters. Umm, this is just a Seiya/Usagi pairing story so if you don't like that eave now. It starts off kind of slow but bare with me, it gets better, or so I'm told. Oh yeah! I find Mamoru extremely stifling so I kinda made him a bit. well, you'll see what I mean.

Are you still reading this? Get on with the story!!!! By the way, (this'll be our little secret) I really DO own sailor moon!!

Untitled For Now

Usagi stared miserably out the window and looked at the rain pouring down. Rain always reminded her of Seiya, and that afternoon on the rooftop of the school. She had fought so hard that day to keep her feelings hidden, when he had revealed the truth. The rain had poured just as hard then as it did now.

Why had it been so hard for her to tell him how she really felt? She almost wished he had been serious about taking her away after the final concert. But she had zipped her lip and all to give her and Mamoru another chance. Yes, once again she had sacrificed her happiness for Mamoru, but wasn't that how the story went?

So after her defeat of chaos, she and Mamoru had been reunited again, but she couldn't seem to make the relationship work. Now that she thought about it, she probably never really loved Mamoru, but being promised that you have a future with someone makes you kind of wary to give up. Thinking she couldn't even get fate right, Usagi had reverted to her own personal plan B and made a wish on her crystal.

She had wished for wisdom, beauty, and, of course, for Mamoru. She hadn't counted on the wish changing the behavior of her friends, but apparently now that she was so wise, her friends didn't care about her unless she had the answer to their latest problem.

And apparently she hadn't been specific enough, because here she was, age 17, living with Mamoru but living without love.

Misery, thy name is Usagi. She thought sadly before looking out at the rain again and thinking of him. She had felt his presence returning to earth, and she could swear that she had seen him walking towards the park earlier today. She decided that tomorrow she would find him and talk to him.

Feeling slightly happier, she turned towards the window for the last time, really knowing that she would regret spending so much time there later, but at the moment not caring.

*** earlier that day...

Seiya Kou wandered aimlessly around the Juban shopping district. The landlord at his old apartment had been more than happy to rent to a former Three Lights (rights in Japanese) member, and so he was settled in quite nicely. He only wished he had spent more time in Japan before returning to Kinmoku (Kinmokusei?), because he was hopelessly lost, and he would have been happy to see any familiar face. No that was a lie; he only wanted to see the face of his Odango.

As he reached a street corner, something made him turn left, but when he did all he saw was a girl with pretty silver hair looking into a shop window. Even though he couldn't see her face, he felt as if he knew her. He could feel warmth and bright light emanating off of her, and it made him feel good inside.

Just then the rain began to fall and he was snapped out of his thoughts. He looked around once more, and he finally remembered where he was. Ignoring the rain, he headed towards the park. He figured he had a good chance of finding Usagi there.

*** present time.

'Usagi!'

Usagi's eyes snapped open, and she tried to get as far away from the angry man standing in the doorway as possible. She would have to nap in the smallest room in the whole damn apartment!

'Usagi, I have just come home from a long day at work, and I'm hungry. Imagine my surprise when I come home to find the apartment a mess, and no dinner ready for me. I put up with so many hardships just to have a lazy bitch for a girlfriend.'

Mamoru had grown cold and distant, and Usagi had discovered first- hand that being trapped in Neherenia's dream world had not been the cause of Mamoru's violence.

'I-I'm so sorry, I must have fallen asleep, I was really ti-'

'Excuse me?' Mamoru advanced towards her slowly.

'I'm sorry,' Usagi repeated warily.

Mamoru grabbed a fistful of her hair right at the nape of her neck and pulled back sharply.

'Excuse me?' he repeated before shoving her to the side, straight into a bookcase which dug painfully into her back.

'Nothing,' she whispered, tears streaming down her cheeks. 'I didn't say anything.'

He gripped her arms painfully and slammed her to the wall again before heading towards the door of the small room.

'I thought so. By the way, don't worry about dinner, I'll eat somewhere else.'

Usagi sat on the floor shaking uncontrollably, and it was only well after she heard the apartment door slam shut when she made her way to her bedroom.

She lived with Mamoru, but there was no way she was giving up her virginity to someone as heart less as he was, so, separate rooms.

Usagi crawled into her bed without bothering to change, and her last thought before she fell asleep was how happy she would be when she finally saw Seiya again.

***

Seiya once again found himself in the park looking for a small, blonde odango-haired girl, and it was very frustrating, because he could feel her, he just couldn't see her.

Seiya leaned against a fence and scanned the crowd for Usagi. He decided maybe he should just wait for her to find him when he heard the sweetest voice yell out 'Seiya!', and then something soft and warm launched itself into his arms.

His first thought was that he was being attacked by an angel, but then he looked into those eyes...

'Odango... you look very different.'

and it was true, she did. she was taller, slimmer, and her hair was no longer in their odangos. her hair was actually totally different from what it used to be, flowing around her to her waist and curling at the ends in a mass the colour of moonlight. her eyes, however, had stayed the same.

She had always been beautiful, but now she looked older, more elegant, and Seiya kind of missed the childish girl he had fallen in love with.

Usagi smiled at him. 'I know, but you look exactly the same.'

'I can't exactly return to my adoring fans if they can't recognize they're handsome Seiya Kou,' he answered

'you're just as cocky too.'

'I'm not cocky, just truthful!' Seiya pulled her in for a hug and unknowingly pressed into the tender bruise on her back. ' I've missed you very much.'

Usagi clenched his shirt tightly and whimpered softly from the pain. she willed the tears not to fall, but her body had a will against her apparently.

Seiya looked at her, concern filling his eyes. 'oh, Usa... What's wrong? did I do something?'

Usagi forced a smile on her face. ' no, nothing's wrong,' she lied. She buried her face in his shirt. ' it's just... you don't know how much I've missed you since the day you walked, uh... teleported out of my life.'

'well, I'm her now,' Seiya reassured her. ' so, how're you and Mamoru?'

'oh, don't worry, he's at work!' Usagi's smile faltered, and Seiya wondered why he should worry.

'Seiya, let's go somewhere and talk.' Usagi looked into Seiya's eyes.

'how about that fruit parlour?' Seiya suggested.

'Okay,' Usagi responded brightly. ' but let me go get my wallet in my apartment first. do you want to meet me there?'

'no, I'll come with you.' Seiya noticed that Usagi suddenly looked nervous.

'O-Okay,' she said, before turning and leading Seiya towards her apartment.' ___________________________________________________________

okay, the end of the first chapter!!!! actually, this is really short, but it starts off kinda slow, and I don't want you guys to get bored. plus I've had this sitting on my computer for awhile and I just want to hurry up and post. most likely this entire story will be posted in smaller segments, and after I'm done, I'll post it with longer chapters like I originally intended.

next chapter, has Seiya/Usagi romance, and good things happen ^_^ I've actually written quite a bit of the story already, but I won't spoil it for those of you who don't know me and don't already know the entire plot line.

Ja ne, minna-san!
