Breaking Free

What are you doing…ack…here

Rain falls gently to the ground and making soft noises against the window of Usagi's room while she stands beside her window, watching rain fall down to earth. Her platinum blonde hair illuminated by the occasional lighting strike that throws her room into an unearthly glow before the thunder rumbles across the sky.

 

She lets out a sigh and moves away from the window and goes over to her desk where she sits down gingerly before starting in on her homework. She looks up from her work when she feels hands on her shoulder and turns her head to see Haruka standing behind her. She smiles before leaning her head back against her Aunts shoulder and closes her eyes.

 

“Long day?” Haruka questions while stroking her fingers through the younger girls blonde locks.

 

“Something like that,” Usagi answers before opening her eyes and moves away from her Aunts comforting embrace to continue her homework.

 

“The boys still giving you problems aren't they?” Haruka asks before moving away from Usagi to sit on the girls bed.

 

Usagi runs her fingers through her hair, but remains quiet while working on a problem for her math class, but nods her head instead and winces when her hand runs across a lump on her head from where a boy had whacked her with a large branch.

 

Haruka studies the girl in front of her with her head leaned slightly to the side before letting out a chuckle. “That's not the only thing that's bothering you is it?”

 

Usagi looks up at her Aunt with a startled look on her face before letting out a grunt then goes back to her homework once again trying to figure out the math problem that has been plaguing her since she started her homework a couple of hours earlier.

 

“Well in any case. Hotaru and I are down in the parlor. Why don't you take some time off from your homework and come down stairs. Some of the relatives are coming through the house. It'd be nice to have you with us to fend them off,” Haruka states with a glowing smile that she knows Usa won't be able to deny.

 

“I really shouldn't, Ruka, I've got homework and then dad wants me to do some exercises before I go to bed tonight. Something about a challenge or something. I didn't really pay him that much attention during dinner,” Usa states while trying not to look up at Haruka, but Haruka wont let her get out of it that easily.

 

“Oh, come on, Usa. It's just tea and some cards. It wont hurt for you to take some time away from your homework. Michi is here,” Haruka states knowing that will get her to come with her.

 

Sure enough Usa's head picks up and looks over at Haruka with a look that's a cross of annoyance, humor and a good dose of disgust at herself for being easy to distract. “Alright, alright. I'll come on downstairs with you to the parlor, but only a couple of games. I can't afford not to get my homework done, Ruka and you always distract me from it!”

 

“I only distract you when I know you aren't getting anything done anyway. So lets go,” Haruka states with a smirk crossing, unseen, over her face.

 

Usagi lets out a sigh before putting her notebook into the text book to mark her page then gets up from the chair and follows Haruka out of the room to where Haruka had stopped. She looks up at her Aunt who smiles down at her affectionately then places her arm around the younger girls shoulders before setting off downstairs for a couple games of cards and some good conversation.

 

<hr>

 

Later on Usagi sits next to Michiru with her arms crossed while watching her Aunt deal out the cards to her and Michiru.

 

“I really think they are cheating,” Usagi mumbles to herself, but Michiru hears the girl and smiles to herself.

 

Outwardly, Michiru looks very calm, but on the inside the woman is having a conversation with herself about the girls that sit around her, like she always does when she's in Haruka's families company.

 

`They are so young to have this responsibility put on their shoulders and there's nothing they can do about it. Outwardly, Usa, is refine and dignified, but from talking to Ruka who talks to Hotaru, I know that she doesn't want to do any of this. She just wants to be herself and break free from the shackles of family responsibility.' She looks over at Ruka who's smiling, but she knows that there are dark thoughts swirling around in the older girls mind.

 

The older girls eyes meet for a moment before looking at the younger girls in the room and they share an unspoken agreement before turning back to the game at hand. Shaking their heads they entertain the younger girls and make sure that they laugh a great deal before they have to leave again.

 

After a couple more hands of cards, Usa, looks up only to see a dark form standing inside the doorway. She stands up and growls under her breath which makes Haruka, Hotaru and Michiru look up from their hands when the dark form walks into the room.

 

“Usa, you look well,” a dark haired, youth dressed in cargo pants, black shoes and a blue long sleeved shirt and a black t-shirt over it, states with a condescending smile on their face.

 

“Mamoru-san,” Usagi growls out and her eyes narrow as does Haruka's and Hotaru's.

 

Michiru draws in a deep breath at the way the rooms warmth and happiness had now dropped to a menacing coldness as soon as the young man had walked into the room and she wonders what this all about and who exactly this Mamoru-san is.

 

“What are you doing here, Mamoru?” Haruka asks with her arms crossed over her chest before standing closer to Usagi with a menacing look on her face.

 

“Oh you know, father came to talk to Usa's father about some arrangements that were made when She was born,” he states his smirk growing colder at the statement.

 

Usagi pushes the sleeves up on her long sleeved t-shirt before stepping around Haruka then walks over to Mamoru with a hard glint in her eyes. “If you think for once that I am going to honor this ridiculous proposal then you are more out of your mind then I thought, Mamoru.”

 

Mamoru lets out a snort and narrows his eyes at the girl in front of him. “You have no choice, Usagi-Chan, the arrangement was made when we were children before your father decided you'd be best suited as a male. Besides, I know your secret. How do you think the kids at school would react at finding out that their golden boy is actually a girl.”

 

“Are you threatening her?” Michiru asks from her place on the couch beside Hotaru who now is standing up to go stand next to her sister.

 

“No, not a threat, more of an observation, really,” he states with a cold smirk which makes Usagi leap at the black haired boy, but is restrained by Haruka and Hotaru.

 

“GET OUT!” Haruka yells while struggling with Usagi who is trying to wipe the condescending smirk from his face.

 

“You can't hide behind Haruka and Hotaru forever, Usagi. You will be mine,” he states coldly before turning around and walks out of the room chuckling to himself.

 

Haruka puts Usagi down on the couch and tries to calm the girl down while Hotaru and Michiru sit on either side of the girl and holds onto the girl while she fumes at what Mamoru had said.

 

“Usa, it's okay. Dad wont let you be married off to Mamoru the jerk. So it's alright,” Hotaru states while hugging the girl beside her who is still beet red from trying to get away from Haruka.

 

Haruka and Michiru look at each other knowing that, that statement doesn't hold much water since Haruka was being made to marry off to someone else that isn't Michiru while Michiru was in the same predicament, but decide against saying that, instead they agree with Hotaru and slowly calm, Usa down enough that they can all talk civilly without Usa flying off the handle.

 

“It's time like these that I'm sorta glad that my father decided to raise me as a boy,” Usa mumbles into Haruka's shoulder who laughs and pats the girls head before leaning back and away from her niece.

 

“See there are good things that came out of this and now if only you could find a nice girl to settle down with, then Mamoru wont be such an issue nor would his gold digging father,” Haruka states with a smile on her face when Usagi goes red.

 

It was indeed common knowledge that the three girls were more inclined towards the fairer sex then they were to boys, which helped them with their male upbringing according to their dad's and Usagi's grandfather, but the constant threat of being found out was enough to make them not pursue such activities except for Haruka who had found Michiru while they were still in high school. Michiru kept turning down Haruka when she asked the girl for a date until one day Haruka came up to ask Michiru why she wouldn't go out with her. Michiru mumbled to her friend that she was into girls not boys and so Michiru became the first person to know the three girls secret.

 

Usagi had wondered about that many times. What were the odds that the girl, Haruka was in love with would turn out to be into girls to begin with. She had once asked Haruka that who proceeded to laugh before shrugging and saying that it was fate. Usagi would frown at that and wonder if Hotaru and her were destined to be with someone. That was when Mamoru started to come around with his father to pressure her father into giving Usagi's hand to his son as was arranged at their births.

When Usagi asked Haruka why would that man want his son to get married to her when she was living a life as a boy. Haruka would just shake her head and tell the girl that everyone had their own agenda and that it was probably because she was the heir to her father's fortune while his partner was just a greedy asshole.

 

Usa lets out a sigh and shakes her head to get away from such intense thoughts when she felt fingers on her sides and begins to squirm around laughing while Haruka and Hotaru attack their mopping niece on her very ticklish sides.

 

“Stop, stop. Please, God, Stop!” Usagi screams out breathlessly while wiggling around on the couch from her aunts attacks.

 

Haruka and Hotaru laugh, but let up on their attacks then sit on the couch with Hotaru next to Usagi and Haruka next to Michiru, but not before Haruka and Hotaru share a look then look back towards Usagi who is whipping some tears from her cheeks.

 

“So, Usagi, tell me about this girl that you met at school,” Haruka states with a shared, evil grin between her and her sister.

 

Usagi's aura darkens and she clenches her hands into fists. “That evil, banshee! I don't want to talk about her. First she attacks me with a shoe then she calls me a Hentai because I walked into the girls locker room by accident. Then she accuses me of being chased by boys because I'm stealing their girlfriends and peeping on them in the locker room,” Usagi spits out vehemently while crossing her arms over her chest and sits back on the couch. “She's evil. The devil incarnate!”

 

Hotaru leans over Usa and looks over at Haruka. “She's purely human. She's not the devil here to torment Usa as she likes to think.”

 

Haruka chuckles then leans over and ruffles the hair on the girls head. “Aww, it sounds like you like her.”

 

Usa slaps the other girls hand away from her head and shoots her an evil glare that would make a lesser human being, spontaneously combust. “I do not like that banshee! I never want to see her again!” Usagi exclaims before jumping up and away from the couch. “I'm going to bed.”

 

Usagi walks out to room fuming to herself while her Aunts laugh at the predicament their niece is in. Michiru watches the girl walk out of the room before slapping her girlfriend upside the head.

 

“That was mean, Haruka!” Michiru states while her girlfriend looks at her with a wounded look on her face before beginning to apologize profusely to her girlfriend for her childish behavior.

 

Hotaru rolls her eyes. `This is what Usa and I have to look forward too? I just hope we don't end up with girls like Michiru.'
