"Diamond Girls?" Rei shrieked when she saw the uniform Usagi had produced from her backpack. "You joined a baseball team?"

"Softball," Usagi corrected as she snatched the pink striped jersey from her friend's hand. "Mamoru likes sports; I've seen him at the diamond watching the girls play. Maybe he'll..." Usagi paused and fingered the embroidered diamond on the back of the jersey.

"Usagi, you're hopeless!" scolded Minako loudly, but when Rei's head was turned, she winked and gave Usagi a thumbs up. Minako, always the matchmaker, had encouraged Usagi to join the team in hopes of catching her crush's eye.

Author's Notes:

We're at the end! Yes, I know there's only 34 stories here—Coral was posted as a one-shot because it far exceeded the bounds of being a drabble.

But don't cry! I'm going to go back to my 100 Romantic themes drabbles- 100 New Beginnings. AND, I'm working diligently on the second book in Kingdom Come. I had to quit writing during chemo- I was just too sick. But the doctor took me off of it last month (I'm allergic to it- wow, talk about craziness!), so I'm back to feeling good and being able to take on some serious writing. I'm half-way through the first draft. Once I'm all the way through, I'll be posting the chapters as I revise them. You can expect the first one to be out sometime this summer. I know it's a long wait, but they should come out pretty regularly after that!

Anyway, make sure you've got 100 New Beginnings on your story alert to keep getting my Friday updates! (Or Thursday when I know Friday will be chaotic ;)
