~*3rd Person POV*~
"What did you want to ask me Luna," asked a confused Rei.
"Nothing, I just needed an excuse to talk to you girls alone. Has anyone noticed
any odd behavior in Usagi lately? She seems to be using her brain more and taking
things much more seriously than before."
"I know," said Rei. "She actually told me to shut-up this afternoon instead of
whining at me. It was really weird."
"And her idea about the scan," interrupted Ami, "I still can't believe that between
Luna, Artemis, and myself that we didn't think of it before. It's really weird that Usagi
of all people was the one to think of it." Ami shook her head in an effort to come to grips
with the weirdness.
"Ami, I would like you to also do a new scan of Usagi tomorrow. I want to see if
there are any changes. This odd behavior on her part is weird and I would like to find a
cause. Also, before you give her the results of Mamoru's scan let me know what they
are. I have a feeling that you are going to find something really interesting and I don't
know if Usagi should something like that. Well girls I need to catch up to Usagi. I will
talk to you all later." With that last remark Luna jumped off of the table and ran out the
arcade door to catch up with Usagi.
~*Usagi's POV*~
'What is taking Luna so long? If I dawdle much longer I'm going to be lat for
dinner AGAIN!' "OH WHY CAN'T LIFE JUST BE SIMPLE!?!" Her loud outburst
drew the attention of several passers-by who paused and gave her that 'Do we need to
call the mental institution?' look. When she smiled back sheepishly they all continued on
their way shaking their heads about today's youth. Unfortunately Usagi had started to
blush. Deeply. She stopped and decided to wait for Luna right where she was. Luckily
for her Luna came around the corner after just a few minutes. "What was so important to
ask Rei?" Usagi bent down and lifted the small black cat to her shoulder.
"I just wanted to ask her if she would do another fire reading about the Negaverse
for us. It's been a while since the last one and I want to know if there have been any new
developments."
"Oh."
The continued on in silence until they reached Usagi's house. They could smell
her mother's cooking before they even opened the front door.
"Yummy! It smells delicious mom," said Usagi as the walked into the kitchen.
"I'm glad that I made it home in time."
"Why thank you honey. I'm glad that you made it home, too. I feel like I haven't
seen you in a long time. Did you get detention again today?"
"No. Miss Haruna was later than me and she was really sick so she gave us time
to finish our homework and didn't give us any for the weekend."
"I have been thinking Usagi, that maybe we should get you a tutor. Maybe that
boy you are always talking about. You know the one I mean... he always calls you
Odango Atama."
"Why would you want my enemy to tutor me? Are you feeling alright Mom?"
Usagi felt her mother's forehead.
"Usagi I feel fine. I want him to tutor you because I think that he sounds like a
very smart and responsible young man and I also think that you will try harder just to
prove him wrong about you. Now, tell me his full name." She looked expectantly at her
pouting daughter.
"Chiba Mamoru," said Usagi in a small voice.
"Good. I will call him this evening."
"I don't think that would be a very good idea."
"Why not dear?"
"Ikindofdumpedmymilkshakeonhisheadthisafternoonatthearcade." Usagi looked
down at the ground and waited for her mother's reaction.
"You did WHAT!" Her mother looked ready to scream. "What on Earth
possessed you to dump your milkshake on his head Usagi?" She looked expectantly at
her repentant daughter.
"He was being really insulting and I just couldn't help myself. It just kinda
happened. I feel really bad about it especially since he apologized for teasing me
afterwards." Usagi was looking down at he ground by now, a depressed expression
contorting her face. Her mother decided not to press the issue anymore.
"Oh well, if he apologized to you he can't be that mad at you. I will call him
tonight and ask him if he can start tutoring you on Monday. Is that ok with you?"
"I guess so. I don't really have much of a choice in the matter. I am going to my
room now. Call me down when it's time for dinner okay." Usagi went slowly up the
stairs to her room with her mother watching her closely.
~*Mamoru's POV*~
'I wonder why I apologized to Odango.' Mamoru was sitting on the black leather
couch in his living room staring at the unlit fireplace. Just then the phone rang, shocking
him from his silent reverie.
"Hello, Chiba Mamoru speaking."
"Hello, my name is Tsukino Ikuko. I am Usagi's mother. First of all I would like
to apologize for Usagi's behavior this afternoon."
"It's okay Tsukino-san. I think that I really did provoke her unnecessarily. It was
at least partly my fault."
"It's nice of you to be so forgiving. The second thing I was wanting to ask you is
if you would be willing to start tutoring Usagi?"
"I don't know Tsukino-san. I don't think that Usagi would like that very much.
We probably wouldn't get much work done."
"That's where I think you're wrong. You always tease her about her grades
correct?"
"Yes."
"Well after you have teased her an especially large amount she usually comes
home and tries to study. Her only problem is that she doesn't have good study habits.
That's mainly what I would like you to teach her besides just helping her overall with
math and English, etc."
"If you are sure than I guess I would be willing to help her. When would you like
me to start?"
"Monday after school if you are free."
"That's fine I guess. We can work at your house, my apartment, or the arcade.
Which would you prefer?"
"I think that your apartment would be best. We are willing to pay you $15 an
hour for 2-3 hours a day. Usagi won't like it but she'll get over it."
"That's perfect. I am sure that my schedule will allow it. I will pick her up at her
school at 3:00 on Monday afternoon."
"Okay, I will tell Usagi that. She'll be waiting for you. Thank you Chiba-san. I
know that you will be a big help to her."
"You are welcome Tsukino-san. I will call you on Monday to let you know how
everything is going."
"Thanks again Chiba-san, have a good evening." Ikuko hung up then leaving a
stunned Mamoru to wonder what exactly he had gotten himself into.
'The Odango for THREE hours everyday? I better stock up on food. She won't
work if she's hungry. Oh man why exactly did I agree to this?'
The little voice that lived in his head decided to speak up and told him that it was
because he wanted Usagi to like him.
'Oh shut up you,' he told his traitorous little voice. 'I do not want her to like me.
I want more of an opportunity to tease her. Yeah, that's it. I want to tease her more.
'You just keep telling yourself that buddy.'
'Oh shut up.' Mamoru blocked out the voice and sat sullenly on his black leather
couch in his impeccable living room staring at the unlit fireplace.
