Chapter 7
Usagi ran into her house at full speed, still sliding a bit on the ice as she jumped into the house. As she entered she tossed off her outside shoes and exchanged them for her house shoes. She then bolted up the stairs, down the hallway and into her room. She flung open her closet door, looking for something to wear. Clothes flew everywhere in the room, left and right, up and down. She searched frantically from something nice to wear to the dinner. She then pulled out a knee long beige skirt with a white top that the word “Bunny” across the chest area. She smiled as she checked herself out in the mirror. She then laid it on the bed spread. She paused a moment and looked at herself again, holding the clothes to her body. She frowned then tossed them on the ground then went back into the jungle of clothes. After a few moments, she came out with a cool slender black dress. She held it up and nodded to herself. She then gently laid it out on her bed.
“Now…” She looked at her mirror in her vanity, “How should I wear my hair?” She slowly took out the buns, letting her hair fall freely to her face. She looked at her golden hair, the creases from the ponytail holders made of hair look odd. Her hands explored the golden frizzy heap, feeling the worn-out, dried hair that the hair had now become. She sighed and frowned at herself. She then put her hair back into the bun form that they were always in and would always be in, “Who am I trying to impress?” She laughingly said to herself. She then plopped down onto the bed, lying back on her back to look at the ceiling. She weakly laughed at herself for being so dense all the time.
She, after a few moments of lying and thinking, picked herself up and looked at the clock in her room, “5:47! I have to go!” She jumped up and quickly dressed in her outfit, a cool slender back dress, for the night. She looked at herself one last time as she left her room. Smiling to herself, her dress easily made her look older than she was, revealing her long tan legs and other things. She then ran out of the room, grabbing an overcoat and grabbing some of cutest black high heels she had. She slipped on her heels as she left her house. As she waited outside for a taxi, she thought about night and how perfect it would be. Surely Mamo-chan would notice her now!
“Please take me to Shinhgo Restaurant.” Usagi said as she entered the small cab. She looked at the man's eyes in the mirror then looked away to outside. She waited as the cab driver made his way through time. She thought silently to herself telling, as if convincing herself, that everything would go great tonight. She smiled to herself while looking at all of the city lights. Nothing could spoil this special night for her. Nothing.
The cab slowly came to a stop in front of the restaurant, and the cab driver turned around, “Shinhgo Restaurant. That will be-”
“Here.” Usagi put more than enough money to cover her trip twice in his large hand. She then opened the door as the brisk air rushed into the cab. She scooted out then shut the door after saying goodnight to the cab driver, who smiled then sped off into the darkness of the city.

“Shinhgo…” Usagi looked at the restaurant with amazement, staring bewildered. It was so large. How could she afford this?
“Usagi!” Minako ran to her and wrapped her arm around her, holding her a bit longer than usual.
“Minako, isn't this going to be expensive?”
“Eh? Usagi, don't worry! I've got it covered!” Minako widely smiled at her, giving her a sense of uneasiness.
“If you say so, Minako...”
“If you say so, Minako...”
Minako took Usagi's hand and led her into the restaurant, where she was greeted by all of her friends and even a few surprises. She hugged and kissed them all on the cheek then made small talk for a few moments until their table was ready.
“Minako Party, your table is ready…” The waiter took them back into large party room where about five tables had been put together. Heads turned as they heard the name Minako.
Usagi was guided to a seat then sat down at one end of the table as everyone took their seats. She looked at everyone as they talked among one another, smiling and laughing. She smiled to herself.
`Was not this want I wanted tonight?' She asked herself, `A prefect night for all these prefect people. Some how though, I still feel so…empty…' Usagi thought to herself as she heard a voice talking to her.
”Madam, your food, it is here” The waiter set down her plate in front of her then bowed away. She smiled then began to eat as did everyone else.

And so they ate, talked and were merry. Hour after hour passed till all of them were to full to even look at food. Usagi smiled at them all, talking to all of those around then looked Minako, whom seemed to be planning something. Something special.
“Everyone, everyone, listen up!” Minako stood to her feet as she tapped a spoon against her wine glass. She looked at Usagi, winking at her, “Tonight, we are here for one person. A person who has touched not just me, but everyone in such a special way that she will never be forgotten,” She looked back at Usagi, “Usagi, you are the sweetest and most beautiful person in all of our lives. Please, never forget us as you become greater. Never lose what you have. Usagi, stay sweet.” Minako stopped, almost looking as if she were going to cry, “A toast to you, Usagi.” She held her glass to Usagi, as she clanged glasses with the others.
“To Usagi!” They all shouted.
“Say something!” Ami shouted at her.
Usagi smiled at her then rose to her feet, “Now, I have to say something. Thank you everyone for coming here just to support me. You are truly good friends. I love you all no matter what.” She choked a bit, “I could never make it without you guys…” Tears freely came down her face, touching all of the people in the room, like she always did, “You tell me not forget you, but I want you to never forget me. I wish you luck through you life. Never lose you shine, all of you. A toast to all of you and to your life, my friends, I love you all. No matter what you have done. To my love Mamoru” She paused, smiling, “I love you more than life itself. Never leave me.” She smiled at him as he smirked. She then took a huge drink of her wine, finishing the entire glass, and then sat down in her seat.
Everyone started to clap for her, as large cake rolled into the room, lighting up Usagi's face, “This is one of my wedding gifts to you, Usagi.” Minako smiled at her as pieces were given out to everyone.
Once again everyone began to talk and laugh, eating their cake. Minako silently slipped out of the room, her purse at her side, lighter in her hand. A few moments later Mamoru also slipped out.
