Hi there everyone, long time no see! I am back after 3 years with another story for you.

Ok, so for a little over a year now I've been watching Sailor Moon, both the classic and crystal. I'm in love with the series and I've been collecting all the DVD's, manga, and merchandise. And I wanted to write a fanfiction with Mamoru & Usagi that deals with romance, domestic abuse, and crime.

So here is the first chapter of Sleeping with the Enemy. Not to be confused with the movie with Julia Roberts. ^^;

Another thing I want to talk about is how I'm gonna write this fanfic. Ok, you know how I go into so much detail; well I'm not going to be doing that so much. Because. . .

1. I haven't written a story for so long that I've mostly lost that ability.

2. I don't want this story to be so long and end up having 20 chapters.

3. I've also been working on making Sailor Moon videos for my YouTube channel. (Go check it out! My user name is NicoleBlue17 :D)

4. It's not good to go into great detail on EVERYTHING that happens in the story. You need to leave it to the reader to use their imagination. And that's what I'm gonna try to accomplish.

Also, I'm sorry if my writing skills have gotten rusty, I haven't written anything for a couple of years. ^^;

One more thing before we start:

1. The Three Light's, aren't sailor senshi's, they're just normal civilians.

2. Seiya, Taiki, & Yaten are biologically male in this story.

3. This story takes place during the Dark Kingdom arc, and during the Rainbow Crystals arc.

4. This story is taking place during the 90s decade, when the classic anime came out.

Also, everyone's ages

Usagi ~ 18

Ami ~ 18

Rei ~ 18

Makoto ~ 18

Minako ~ 18

Mamoru ~ 20

Motoki ~ 20

Seiya ~ 19

Okay, now onto the story!

Disclaimer: I do not own Sailor Moon, the series belongs to the wonderful creator, Naoko Takeuchi

Chapter 1: It All Begins

Pretty girl is suffering while he confesses everything.

Pretty soon she'll figure out what his intentions were about.

And that's what you get for falling again,

you can never get him out of your head.

And that's what you get for falling again,

you can never get him out of your head.

It's the way that he makes you feel.

It's the way that he kisses you.

It's the way that he makes you fall in love.

~"Pretty Girl" by Sugarcult

Usagi sprinted down the street, not daring to look behind her to see if he had followed her. She paused her running when she collapsed by the street corner, hugging the light post. Tears were making their way down her angelic face and snobs were escaping her lips. She released the hard lump in her throat, bawling her heart out right there.

She wore nothing more than a sleep shirt that was torn opened, baring her chest and stomach, and a simple summer robe that reached past her knees.

"It's no use," she whispered, her voice cracking. "He doesn't love me; I'm such a worthless fool. No one will ever love me the way I am now. . . "

The memory of what he had done to her only made her cry harder. Although, her life hadn't always been this rotten. Seiya Kou was a guy she had met a year ago; a popular teen idol who was sweet, caring, and considerate person. She recalled the first time she met him at the arcade and everything else after that.

. . . .

"Usagi-chan, we're supposed to help clean the place, not fool around on the job." Ami told Usagi, who had on headphones jamming to some upbeat music while she danced and swept the floors.

"Don't worry; the floors are still getting attention. I just wanted to make this more fun!" she said, still continuing to glide across the tiles.

Rei, who was mopping the floors, scoffed. "Well if you end up having a klutzy moment, stay on your side. Cause' the floors wet over here, and I'm not hearing your wailing after you've fallen on your ass."

Usagi ignored her fiery friend and carried on swaying to the song "Do You Love Me?" by The Contours. She giggled out loud, filling the arcade with such happiness, lifting her shoulders to the rhythm and her hips from side to side. She whooped and jumped again, her long odango's flipping and all.

When she spun around, she shrieked when she found that a random guy had crept up to her and stood there, watching her performance. It made her suffer a klutzy attack and she tripped, and found herself on the floor leaning against the crane machine. Her face bright red at her embarrassment.

"Whoa! You okay there dumpling-head?" he asked.

The blonde stammered her words, struggling to get up. "You scared me!"

"My bad, I didn't mean to." He apologized.

"Gomen, it's okay." Usagi got back on her feet and he handed the broom back to her. Only when she took it, he cupped her hand when she rested it on top of the handle. The touch sent an electric spark through her body and she looked up to see the most handsome guy she had ever seen.

A tall man with long ebony hair, pulled back in a ponytail; and blue eyes that met her big, pretty blue ones. The odango blonde blushed, feeling like such an idiot.

"Seiya Kou." He said.

Usagi smiled, his smile was making her go crazy and she was lost in those beautiful eyes of his. "Um. . .I. . .I'm Usagi, Usagi Tsukino."

"Usagi. . ." Seiya hummed, "That sounds pretty."

She blushed even more and smiled shyly. "I feel so embarrassed; I'm blushing red aren't I?"

Seiya chuckled. "The color suits you Usagi-san."

All of her friends were watching the scene unfold, shocked by who it was that was talking to their friend. Minako ran up to him like an enthusiastic fan girl and starred at him, her big blue eyes sparkling.

"Are you THE Seiya Kou?! The lead singer of the Three Lights?!"

Seiya smirked and brushed his bangs. "That I am, miss. . ."

"Minako Aino!" she squealed.

At that moment, the rest of Usagi's friends joined in on the squealing; saying how they were big fans of the idol group, admiring Seiya, and if they could have his autograph. Usagi was even more astounded, he wasn't just a guy, but a popular teen idol.

That was when Motoki walked in and told the teen idol that the arcade was closed.

"Oh, gomen, I saw everyone in here and the door was still opened." Seiya admitted.

"That's okay; we were all helping Motoki-san with the cleaning. It was really busy today." Makoto said.

"Well then, I'll let you all get back to your cleaning." Seiya said. He turned his attention back to Usagi. "I don't suppose you'd like to walk home with me after this, would you?"

The offer surprised her; this Seiya person was really interested in her. "Um, me and my friends are gonna have a sleepover after this."

The raven haired teen hummed. "Nice friends."

"Yeah." She awkwardly said.

"Well, I guess I'll see you around Usagi-san." He gave her a warm smile. "Oh, and," He then placed his hand under her chin, tilting her head up to meet his gaze.

"I just wanted to say that you're beautiful, you know."

Her friends gasped and Usagi was frozen in place, her mind racing while her heart beat wildly. 'Oh my god. . .he just told me I was beautiful!' she screamed to herself. 'I can't believe the super-hot Seiya Kou is standing here, telling me I'm beautiful, and looking at me with those gorgeous eyes of his.'

"Ummm. . .thank you." She anxiously answered.

Seiya then turned on his heels and walked out of the arcade, the blonde sighed dreamingly as she watched him go.

. . . .

From then on, her and Seiya began seeing each other more and became the perfect couple.

At first; Seiya had made her feel like a princess, he always pampered her, and helped her out with everything. Always making sure she was happy, she had felt drawn to him. He was perfect. After a few months, he asked her to move into his house with him. She had accepted, she felt safe and comfortable with him. It was then that Usagi had learned that the teen idol had another side to him.

A dark side.

Seiya began to physically, emotionally, and sexually abuse her. Controlling what she should wear and eat, beating her, threaten her, limiting her social activities, and taking nude photographs of her.

For months, she'd put up with his obsessiveness and abuse. For months, she hid the truth from everyone with a smile and makeup. Usagi was starting to lose herself, her shine was gone, but she still tried to put on a brave face. Everyone she loved wasn't safe from his manic reach; Seiya warned her that if she told anyone he'd kill her friends and family.

Usagi didn't know how long she would be able to endure this horrible pain.

~3 Weeks Ago~

"Angel! Get your fucking ass down here! You're going to be late for school!" Seiya shouted from downstairs.

Usagi hurried to finish putting her hair up in her normal odango style. "I'm coming!" She then made her way down the stairs, being careful to not have a klutzy moment. Seiya hated that about her.

The teen Idol watched her make her way to the bottom. "What took you so long?"

"I was trying to cover up my wounds, so that nothing looked suspicious." She said.

Seiya gave her a smug look. "Hurt's doesn't it?"

Usagi looked down at the floor, knitting her brows. "A lot."

"Well next time, I like to come home and find a clean house. And that won't happen." He said.

All the blonde could do was bow her head, telling him off would only give her more beatings. "Yes. Gomen."

Her boyfriend then looked at her with a false gentleness in his behavior. "Ahh, I love you very much, my beautiful Angel."

He then embraced her tightly. Usagi shivered at his touch, it felt cold and hard, but she hugged him back anyway.

"Alright, now gather your things and go." He said smoothly. "Cause' I'm not bringing you your school bag or lunch because you forgot them."

"Okay." Was all she could say. She quickly hurried getting her bag and bento and walked to the door. "Bye Seiya, I'm hanging out with my friends after school."

He glared at her. "Whatever, you better be back on time tonight, or so help me."

"I will Seiya, I promise." She replied in dismay, and headed out the door.

. . . .

After the school day ended, Usagi and her friends headed towards the arcade. They sat at the same booth they had been sitting at for the past four years. Motoki approached the table holding the girl's regular orders; everyone except Usagi got their requested drinks.

"Motoki-san, I asked for a glass of water. Not a chocolate shake." She said.

Minako took a sip of her drink and assured her odango friend. "Usagi-chan, you've been on this diet for a while now. Letting go for one day isn't gonna hurt, you should be rewarded!"

"I agree," Motoki added. "besides, I don't want you passing out today like before."

Usagi looked down at her shake, recalling that time she passed out in the arcade when she started this whole diet thing, telling Motoki that she needed to go to a restaurant. Seiya had told her that she needed to stop eating anything that was fatty. He wanted her to stay skinny for him.

"I know, but I can't eat too much or I'll get fat." she said

Rei slammed her glass down. "Will you just drink the damn shake baka! Your skinny enough as it is, in fact, I think the next gust of wind will blow you away."

Usagi didn't want to argue about this any longer, so she finally took her first sip. But as they all continued to chat, they were disappointed to find her mostly picking at the drink. So unlike the way she used to gulp down the whole thing in one go.

Minako then nudged Usagi's arm. "So. . .Usagi-chan."

"Yes?" she asked.

"You said that Seiya-san would be out of town for a week to go shoot a music video right?" the goddess of love inquired.

"Yeah, next week, why?" she asked.

Minako grinned. "Cause' that would be the perfect time for all of us to spend the week together! Go to the movies, hang out at the mall, and go shopping where I try on some clothes. And everyone would be like, 'EW Minako-chan! Not in public!'."

Everybody at the table had large sweat drops hanging off their heads as they listened to their blonde friend talk some more about what kind of crazy shenanigans they would have.

Usagi thought about it. If Seiya was gone for a week out of town, she wouldn't have to worry about coming home to find him in the living room, waiting for her. Telling her that he had seen her talking to other men, believing that she had been flirting with them. She didn't know how he was able to spy on her all day when he had a career to take care of. But since he would be busy with this project, she would be a free woman for a couple of days. And plus, she hadn't spent that much time with the girls ever since Seiya came into the picture.

"Alright then, the plan sounds good to me." She said.

The five young girls finished their drinks and slide out of the booth. Usagi smiled at them. "Hey guys, how bout' we all go window shopping! I still have plenty of time before my curfew."

It had been long since she was this excited. She hadn't been laughing and smiling the same anymore. But since she was going to have a free week, she felt a bit of weight being lifted. She was more focused in that until she bumped into a strong toned chest. The contact touched her sore wounds, but she managed to keep a straight face to avoid questions.

"Careful bun-head, you got to start paying attention." The tall, raven haired adonis said.

She narrowed her eyes. It was her mortal enemy who was also a big jerk to her. Every day they would bump into each other and he would deliver her a batch of insults. Constantly picking on her poor grades, klutzy episodes, and her hair. Bun-head being the most famous of all.

Usagi growled, looking into his midnight blue eyes. "Don't call me that, jerk! It's a good thing I'm leaving with my friends anyway. Gives me less time to face you and totally ruin my day."

He smirked. "You're right, me being in your presence doesn't help, because you know I'm a distraction."

She blinked at that, she never let him be aware in any way that she thought he was good looking. Well, she wasn't afraid to admit it to herself, but how he communicated with her was unattractive.

"Come on bun-head! It'll be dark in a couple of hours." Rei growled.

"I'm coming!" Usagi called. She stormed past him and out of the arcade.

"See ya later bun-head!" he said.

She pouted angrily and he watched until her body disappeared in the street.

"You know Mamoru," Motoki started as he walked up to his best friend. "You should try to be nicer to her; she hasn't been acting like herself lately. She really is a good person."

Mamoru looked at him. "I've actually have been trying to, but every time we talk it just seems to turn into an argument." He then turned his attention towards the double doors again, watching the world roll on by outside.

"What can I say? I guess her and me weren't meant for each other."

Well there you go folks!

Sorry if this chapter felt boring, but I promise it will get better and, hopefully, more exciting.

So stay tuned!
