Yeah!!!! I dance around the room.
Today for the disclaimer we were supposed to have Mamo-chan.
:Analla sighs:
But unfortunately Luna somehow recieved an advanced copy of the chapter and has Mamoru cornered.
I'm not blaming anyone, but I think Kat had something to do with it. She's never really liked Mamoru.
< Kat- "Excuse me Analla, but who was the person who misspelled my name?" >
Ugh, well. That might have been me.
"What? You guys K-A-T and C-A-T are really close, besides Kat you're not supposed to be in the Author's notes."
< "Then get things right." >
"Fine, I will."
As I was saying before I was rudely interrupted. Mamo-chan can't read the disclaimer but he sent me a very nice recording.
Puts the tape in the tape recorder. Hits play.
"Luna, I swear I thought it was a dream...........SOMEBODY HELP ME!"
Tape cuts off abruptly.
Well there ya go.
Enjoy the fic.
Oh by the way since I absolutely could not bear to see poor Mamo-chan mangled (come on we have to leave his face alone) For this scene Luna is being replaced by Usagi's pink bunny Mr. FuFu
After the Senshi recovered from the shock of Motoki knowing their identities and finding out who Tuxedo Kamen truly was, they began to plan.
"You see." Minako pointed. "I told you they were meant to be together."
With that the five put their heads together and conspired how to get Mamoru and Usagi to admit they loved each other. Makoto and Ami were assigned to watch the balcony.
Rei volunteered to stay at the temple and watch their auras in the sacred fire.
Minako smiled. "That leaves you and me to watch the front door, Motoki."
"But they know what we look like."
"Don't worry. Sailor V is a master of disguise."
Mamoru smiled as he pulled Usako closer. "Mine, all mine." He thought, nuzzlling her neck gently. He'd awoken a few moments before, surprised to find Usagi there. However, he wasn't one to question the fates when they gave him exactly what he wanted.
He was keeping his eyes closed though. "I won't let her get away. She always disappears when I open my eyes. This time she won't."
Usagi awakened, stretching languidly. She stiffened as soon as she felt the arm about her waist. "Ami has my brooch. I couldn't have teleported. What happened?"
Mamoru began nuzzling her neck.
"It must be repayment for all the nightmares I've had. It's only a dream."
Without another thought Usagi let herself drown in the pleasant sensation of being snuggled by her Mamo-chan.
Mamoru frowned slightly. "Usako." He whispered. She should be facing him, how else could he reach her lips. He shifted his arms turning her body.
"Odango Atama." He teased playfully before his lips captured hers.
"Odango?" Usagi thought indignantly. "What happened to Usako?"
Moments later she really didn't care, she abandoned all thought processes as Mamoru deepened the kiss.
Mamoru was tasting the sweet nectar of his goddess, but something was wrong. He pulled back slightly, something cool and hard was digging into his chest. Cradling Usagi's head with one hand he reached the other down to get rid of the offending piece of metal.
Usagi gasped as Mamoru unclapsed... "My brooch."
Various thoughts flitted through her brain. She quickly latched onto one. "This is definitely NOT a dream."
Her eyes shot open as she jerked herself out of Mamoru's arms and fell onto the floor.
Mamoru groaned in pain as Usagi's flailing legs hit a delicate, yet very vital, piece of his anatomy.
Indigo eyes met cerelean.
"Care to explain how you got into my apartment, Odango?"
Usagi panicked. "This can't be happening. Where's my brooch?" She looked around quickly but her brooch wasn't in sight. "He must've dropped it." She quickly dove under the bed, barely missing Mamoru's hand.
"It's clean." Usagi thought in amazement as she used her hands to feel for the brooch.
Mamoru fell from the bed in a tangle of blankets and limbs. Once under the floor he shot a hand under the bed and tried to find Usagi.
He immediately came in contact with another hand. Usagi pulled back quickly before he could even grab her.
Mamoru cursed as Usagi escaped his grasp.
"You come out right now." He commanded.
"Yeah right." Usagi thought as she moved towards the center of the bed and pulled herself into a tight ball, careful to make sure that none of her hair was grabbable.
"Go back to sleep Chiba." She called, wishing he would do it. "It's probablly the only way I'll be able to escape."
"I don't think so." Mamoru said as he reached further under the bed. Usagi squeeked and moved away from him.
"She's on the other side." He realized. It was impossible to reach any further under from this end, he wouldn't fit.
Mamoru quickly crawled over the top of the bed and sent a questing hand under. Usagi moved to the other side of the bed.
"This could take all night." He admitted. He could picture Usagi and him moving from one side to the other all night long. Just then he glanced at the foot of the bed.
"Perfect." He thought as he hopped onto the bed and made his way towards the foot, waiting patiently.
Usagi stilled as soon as she realized Mamoru wasn't trying to grab her anymore. She heard the bed creak slightly. "Maybe he did go back to bed." She paused for a moment. "Yeah right, he wouldn't give up so easily. He's probably thinking up a way to capture me right now. Kami, where's my brooch?"
She cast her eyes about. There by her left hand was a small, dark object. "My brooch." She thought in relief as she wiggled downwards so she could pick it up. She reached for it quickly only to find. "Mr. Fufu, he won't help meee-"
The thought was abruptly cut off. Mamoru had watched as Usagi's first foot had appeared, then the other. As soon as both were visible, he locked his arms on, jumped off the bed and began pulling.
"Let go, baka!" Usagi cried, her voice muffled by the bed. She kicked for all she was worth.
"If you think." Mamoru said slowly, dodging Usagi's leg and then relocking his hold on it. "That I'm going to let you go after I finally get you away from your little black demon..."
He dodged her leg again.
"Giving up my one advantage..."
"Think again."
Usagi reached up and grasped a bed rung, and tried to pull herself back under the bed. Mamoru still pulled, realizing that it was futile. Usagi let go and grabbed Mr. Fufu as Mamoru pulled her the rest of the way out.
Usagi saw Mamoru's form outlined in the dark. "Let me go Chiba." She warned him one last time.
"In your dreams." Mamoru countered moving his hands slowly up her body, refusing to let her go for an instant.
"Don't say I didn't warn you."
She pulled her arms out from under the bed and threw Mr. Fufu at what she thought was Mamoru's head.
"Get him Luna." She called loudly.
Mamoru let go of Usagi as his hands flew up to block the projectile that was flying straight towards his face. He prepared himself for slashing claws, but instead he captured...
"A STUFFED ANIMAL."
Usagi's giggle mocked him as she escaped down the hall.
"Serves you right Mamo-chan." She called.
"Why does it have to be so dark?" Usagi complained. She literally couldn't see even three inches ahead of herself. Usagi moved her hands along the wall searching for any obstacles. Finally her hand gripped a doorknob.
"Goodbye Mamo-chan." She crowed to herself happily as she opened the door and escaped from his apartment.
Mamoru cursed as he ran down the hallway and flipped on the lights. He couldn't find her anywhere. He checked the front room, the hall, even the kitchen. All of them were empty.
He glanced at the front door. "She wouldn't." He thought desperately as he ran and over unlocked the door.
Out in the hall Minako heard the door knob rattle.
She quickly threw herself at Motoki, the disguises were good, but this was the perfect opportunity. She kissed him eagerly. Motoki was surprised but seconds later he began to return the kiss.
Mamoru swung the door open and stepped out into the hall looking for Usagi.
The only people out there was a young couple kissing feverishly.
"Did a blonde with odangos come out here?" He asked, his voice rasping harshly.
The couple turned towards him. The girl's eyes widened hugely as her face flushed crimson. She quickly shook her head no.
Mamoru shut his door quickly. "That girl should be embarassed." He thought. "The least they could do is go into his apartment, they shouldn't be kissing in a public hallway. Some people have no manners."
Mamoru smiled in contentment as he realized that Usagi hadn't left, which meant she was still somewhere in the apartment. He took a key down from his key hook and then locked the dead bolt. He rarely used the deadbolt, because you had to have the key to unlock it. Now that it was locked Usagi wouldn't be able to escape.
He went to put the key into his pocket. "No pockets baka." He thought as he looked around. Finally he placed the key on a high shelf. A place where Usagi wouldn't be able to reach.
"Now to find my little bunny."
"The bathroom." Usagi wailed to herself as soon as she realized what room she had eneterd. "How was I supposed to know it was the bathroom. That baka only has two other doors in his whole apartment. Why couldn't I have found the front door?
She bumped around trying the find the door handle again. She stubbed her toe on the tub before she realized that she was going the wrong way. Usagi turned around, freezing when she saw the sliver of light, coming from the cracks of the doorframe.
"That baka turned on the lights." Her only hope was to be able to sneak back to his bedroom unnoticed, find her brooch, and escape.
Usagi poked her head out into the hall and glanced in the direction of Mamoru's bedroom.
"USAGI!" A voice yelled from behind her.
Usagi didn't even pause as she ducked head back into the bathroom, shutting the door, and then locking it quickly.
Mamoru ran down the hall and tried to open the door only to find it locked.
"Let me in Odango." He demanded.
"No way, Chiba."
Usagi sat down on the edge of the tub.
"At least my night can't get any worse."
Just then her communicator started beeping.
