Ice Princess -- by Serpentine Malfoy
Part Three: Relationship!?!?
Usagi revealed in the constant excitement as she whirled around the rink. She had no control of her movements. She was entirely at the mercy of this gorgeous man. She felt the coolness of the ice on her practically bare legs. As Mamoru swung her effortlessly into his waiting arms, Usagi felt as if she were in heaven Usagi thought, ~ I could die a happy woman right now! ~ Mamoru for his part was having similar thoughts.
"I knew you two would be perfect!" Coach Wilis yelled from the outside of the rink. The interruption in their dream world made them falter a little. Usagi's footing on the ice wasn't quite right so she was heading for a painful fall on the unyielding ice. Mamoru caught her with ease.
"Well, up until that incident that is!" The coach chuckled. The pair gracefully skated to the coach. Usagi's cheeks were slightly painted with a rosy hue. Mamoru also was a little flustered. Their coach just laughed.
"Now we need to discuss your relationship...."
"Nani!?!?!?" Mamoru and Usagi yelped in unison. Coach Wilis started his torrent of laughter once again.
"You two are too cute!" The usually gruff coach was more than happy to see how well his new team looked together. Mamoru and Usagi looked at each other thoughtfully. Usagi could feel how red her cheeks were and how much she would like that to be true. The same thoughts were barreling through Mamoru's mind.
"Now that you two have met and have a developing a repore we need to discuss your practice schedule. We have a compation in two months and I want to see the two of you win. You will both be here at five in the morning everyday except Sunday and every night at six..." Usagi was about to complain about the fact she usually works later at the restaurant than that when Coach Wilis Raised a warning eye brow at her, She quietly held her protest, "since there are no objections I'll see the two of you tomorrow bright and early." Without waiting for a reply he turned and left the two new partners to stand in an acward silence.
Usagi heaved a sigh, "Damn." She muttered under her breath. Mamoru looked at her quizzically.
"May I be of any assistance?" Usagi looked at him thoughtfully.
"Well, could you give me a ride to my restaurant, it's not bad enough I have to tell my boss I can't work mornings or evenings but now I'll be late for tonight's shift!" Mamoru took her hand and told her he would be happy to drive her.
Only breaking a few traffic rules Mamoru was able to get her to work with a few minutes to spare. After opening the car door for her he held his hand out to her. She took it cautiously.
"Thank you, Mamo-chan..." Usagi's face became a blaze of heat. "I mean Mamoru.."
"No, No, I like it please you can call me anything you wish my Ice Princess. I think I shall call you Usako, my little rabbit." He gently placed a butterfly kiss on her button nose then said good bye and returned to his car. Usagi was on cloud nine as she went to work that night. She could hardly wait until the next morning when she would see Mamo-chan again.
