Yue Moon: First attempt at a Sailor Moon fanfic. It was written by both me and one of my best friends.

Summary- Mamoru travels to America to go to college there. But before he leaves he proposes to Usagi. He promises he'll be back in a year...she promises she'll wait for him. What happens? Mamoru does return, as promised...but he also brought something back. She's clinging to his arm...

By The Way- All the people in here never had/don't have any powers. There are no talking cats, no visits from the future, nothing. Plus, Usagi has always loved the moon and the stars...That's why the ring has a moon on it...ooops...have I said too much? ^^;

Chapter 1



#Flashback#
*Knock knock*

Usagi rushed to the door and threw it open, jumping into Mamoru's arms. She smiled up at him. "Hey! You said you had big news eh ^^? What is it what is it?!"

Mamoru grinned and waved an envelope in the air. "I finally got it!" He said shutting the door.

"Huh? Got it? Got what?!" She said, obviously confused.

"You mean I never told you?" He asked, walking towards the couch and taking a seat, putting the envelope on the coffee table.

Usagi sat down next to him and shook her head. "Nope...I don't think you did. So what's this about...and what's in the envelope?"

Mamoru grinned once again. "Well...about 3 months ago I sent in an application to this certain college I want to go to. And I finally got something back from them! I haven't opened it yet...I wanted you to be around when I did."

Usagi smiled. "So what took it so long to get here," she asked, picking up the envelope and taking a look at the address. Her face fell. "...it's in America..."

"What's wrong?"

Usagi looked up and forced herself to smile. "Nothing. I was just thinking...So what are you waiting for? Open it already!" She exclaimed, handing the envelope over to Mamoru. He smiled and hugged her tight...

"Well...here goes..." He ripped the envelope open and took a deep breath. He unfolded the paper in it and began to read...Usagi peeked over his shoulder...

~What wierd symbols...how can he read it?~

Mamoru jumped up and screamed 'YES!', startling Usagi.

"Wh-what? What is it? You got in?!" She asked, getting up. ~What a stupid question...he has an insanely huge smile on his face...ofcourse he got accepted...I have to be happy for him...I can't show my disappointment...I must act happy~

Mamoru picked her up by the waist and twirled her around, grinning like a maniac. "Hai! I got accepted. Isn't this great!!!!!" He exclaimed, putting her down and giving her a kiss.

All of a sudden everything went by in slow motion...Mamoru got on his knees and pulled out a little black box...He opened it and looked up at Usagi, taking a hold of her hand...

"Usako...will you marry me?"

Usagi was speechless...she just stared at the ring...it was a gold ring with a diamond crescent moon at the top. She looked up at Mamoru...his grin was slowly fading.

~What's taking her so long to answer? Is she not ready? Does she not love me?!?!?~ thought Mamoru.

Suddenly Usagi broke out into a huge smile and bent down, hugging Mamoru. "Hai! Ofcourse I'll marry you Mamo-chan!!!"
#End Flashback#


~It's been a year...I wonder how he's been...I've missed him soooooo much!!! I can't wait to see him!' Thought Usagi as she bent her head down and smelled the huge red rose she had bought for Mamoru.

Loud Speakers- Flight 208 from Florida USA to Tokyo Japan has arrived.

Usagi smiled and got up, slowly walking towards the door with 'Flight 208' flashing above it. There were alot of people at the door, and seeing how she wasn't exactly tall, Usagi couldn't tell if Mamoru had already come out or not.

~Arrgghhh! Why does everyone have to be so taaaall ;_;?~ She started to jump up and down, hoping to at least get a glimpse of him.

~Kuso! Too many people...why don't they leave already?~

And as if they had read her mind, the people who had met up with their beloveds/friends, started leaving.

~Ppphhh! Finally -_-.~ Usagi started forward but stopped dead in her tracks when she saw Mamoru.

~What? Wh-Who's that girl? Why's there a girl with him...Why are his hands wrapped around her shoulders? Why is her hand wrapped around his waist? Why are they laughing? Could it be...he found someone else?~ At this point Usagi is about to cry. ~But no! How could I think that? Hahaha how silly of me! Ofcourse he hasn't found any one else. He proposed to me. We're promised to each other!~

Usagi takes a deep breath and smiles, walking up to Mamoru.

~Shit! What's she doing here? I didn't tell her my flight came in today...how'd she know?~ Thought Mamoru as he pretended not to notice the blonde in front of him.

Usagi hugged Mamoru and handed him the red rose.

"Welcome back Mamo-chan," she smiled and turned to the brunette who still had her arm around Mamoru. "Oh! Who's this? I didn't know you had a sister...or is it your cousin?" She turned to the black-haired guy infront of her, smiling a hopeful kind-of smile.

Mamoru handed the flower to the brunette and put his hand in his pocket, shifting uncomfortably and avoiding Usagi's eyes.

"Wait! That rose was for you Mamo-chan... Why'd you--" Usagi stopped talking...Mamoru had just retrieved his hand from his pocket and held up the ring she had given him for their engagement.

"Gomen..." He said in a robotic tone, taking a hold of her hand and placing the ring in it. And with that he just left...walked away...laughing with his brunette girl...as if nothing happened.

Usagi fell to her knees, staring at the gold ring with the red little rose on top. Tears flowed freely and her body shook uncontrollably. She mouthed the word 'no' over and over again, not daring to believe what just happened.

Suddenly she felt a pair of strong arms wrap around her, pulling her into a hug, rocking her back and forth, strocking her hair, telling her everything was alright. At first she thought that Mamoru had come to his senses. But then she realised it wasn't him...it didn't smell like him...it didn't feel like him.

"Daijoubu?"
