Two women sat facing each other on a three seater couch. The slightly taller Hino Rei lounged casually with her feet propped up on the oak coffee table, one arm draped over the arm of the couch and the other clutching a choc chip cookie. Her long black hair with a purple hue cushioned her back and her violet eyes watched her companion while she contently chewed a piece of the cookie. She wore green cargo pants and a white shirt under a red zip up jacket. Across the back was the word "Pyro" in large orange print with thick a thick gold outline. Her feet were covered by a pair of black socks with flames over the heel and toes. She was an Aries, born on the 17th of April with a fiery temper and fairly good judgement on people's characters. An up and coming fashion designer and at the age of twenty one, with an adoring husband named Chad.
Across the couch sat a younger blond haired girl with sky blue eyes. Her locks were pulled up into two buns, placed one either side of her head and a streamer of gold falling from each. Her legs were crossed beneath her and her arms were folded across her chest as she finished on the cookie she was eating. She wore an iridescent pink tube top that had a small white rabbit on the top left hand side. Her legs were covered by a pair of flared, stone-washed blue jeans with a moon of diamantes on each pocket. A trail of diamantes ran down the side of each leg and over her right calf, diamantes spelt the word's "Lucky rabbit". She wore a pair of pink fluffy rabbit slippers, all her clothes had been made for her by Rei, and each was unique down to the strapless pink bra and matching knickers that had "lucky rabbit, rabbit, bunny, Usagi" scrawled across them. Usagi was born on the 30th of June making her a Cancer at the age of 20.
"You're still going to model for my catwalk premier of my new year's line right?" Rei's violet eyes shone questioningly at one of her best friends, a puppy dog pout pulling onto her features as she received a nod. "I wouldn't miss it for the world and you know that" The blond grinned cheerily, "And how could I pass up the chance to be top model, hmm?". The two burst out into laughter as Usagi started waving her arms in the air and throwing her head from side to side pulling faces and twisting her shoulders. The two had to stifle their laughter as the phone rang, Usagi jumping slightly with a snort in surprise. Rei leant forwards and picked the receiver off the cradle and raised it to her ear "Moshi moshi?" She couldn't help but giggle at the look on her friend's face.
"Hey, how's my amazing little sister doing?" Rei rolled her eyes as he elder brother's voice spoke over the line. She knew by the tone of his voice he was after something, he usually called her every Sunday night and would stay on the phone for about half an hour but he'd only flatter her when he was after something. "What do you want, Bro?" She sighed looking at Usagi who was raising a cookie to her lips, one eyebrow quirked in confusion and interest. A nervous laugh sounded at the other end, accompanied by some more nervous talk, "Look Rei, I have to go to a business meeting tomorrow night, I only just found out about it and I can't find a baby sitter, could you please look after your adorable nephew for a few hours? Pwease?"
She could just see her elder brother pouting down at the phone. "Sorry, Mamoru but I can't I'm busy helping Makato at her self defence class" She sighed apologetically, a frown on her lips till Usagi spoke up. "What's wrong? Anything I can help with?" Rei giggled at the cute look Usagi had on her face as she tilted her head, an eye brow raised and large blue eyes. She covered the receiver and whispered "My brother needs someone to look after his son but He can't..." She trailed off as realisation dawn on her, her palm meeting her forehead. Usagi was a nursery school teacher in training. "Duh! Usagi are you busy tomorrow night?" The blond shook her head gaining a smile from the raven haired woman before her. "Mamoru I've found you a babysitter. My best friend in the whole entire world, Tsukino Usagi"
Usagi sweat dropped at this proclamation as Rei went over a few details with her brother then hung up. "You need to pick up Harley at 3:20pm from Happy kids Nursery school. It's only ten minutes away from where you're working so you might have to hang around for a few minutes. He's absolutely adorable, and well behaved. You'll know it's him when you see him although he may be a little shy" She began rooting through a photo album marked 'Family' that was on the nearby mahogany bookshelf. "I've told Mamoru to tell Harley what you look like so he'll know it's you. But he has Black hair and dark blue eyes, almost the spitting image of his father who happens to be single" She raised her eyebrows suggestively as she found the picture she wanted and pulled it out. "Rei!" The blond screech, with a rosy blush spreading over her cheeks, "I can't believe you'd suggest me and your brother" She cast a glare over as the raven giggled and handed her a photo of her nephew.
She looked it over, a small smile brightening onto her lips as she looked at the cute seven year old. Large blue eyes looked up at her, a mop of ebony hair falling over his forehead, almost touching his eyebrows. He had chubby cheeks and a cute little nose matched with a toothy grin. One gap could be seen in the front and a pinkie, red tongue poked through slightly causing her grin to widen. "He's cute. You two are definitely related to each other" Rei's grin now matched Usagi's as she flopped back down in her previous seat. Rei flicked back a strand of hair before picking up another cookie and surveying the blond woman in front of her. She wasn't married to her work, she was lively and optimistic and nearly always wore a grin, even at the worst of times just to keep up appearances and cheer up people around her. She was completely the opposite of her brother apart from two things. They were both lonely and they were both stubborn, head strong. She was just what he needed whether he admitted it or not.
Rei handed her a small key which she took off her small collection on keys in her pocket and pulled a piece of paper and a pen from the table that was pushed against the back of her red leather suite. She scrawled down a list of his allergies which consisted of bee stings only, His favourite foods: Chocolate 'I like this boy, a lot' thought Usagi as she read over the rest of the list. Spaghetti, pizza, chicken, Dislikes: Carrots 'Ok I love this boy, shame he wasn't older' She giggled as Rei gave her a curious look which turned the soft quiet giggles into a loud batch of hysterics. "Sorry I was just thinking about tomorrow" She flashed an innocent smile to her friend and put the picture and list into her bag. "Oh where do they live? You never told me" Rei slapped her hand to her forehead again as Usagi passed her the piece of paper again and she scribbled down their address.
"Well I guess I better go get ready. Speak to you tomorrow, k?" Rei nodded as she stood up and hugged Usagi and waved her out. She shut the door and leaned against it with glazed eyes and a happy smile. She jumped up and ran to the phone dialling Minako's number whom was Usagi's cousin. "Minako! I think i just found Usagi her dream guy... My brother.. Mamoru.. Yeah.. they're perfect for each other.. How should I know? He's my brother... Black hair, Blue eyes... She's babysitting my nephew tomorrow at his place.. Yeah... Yeah.. she's gonna call me tomorrow.. yeah.. see you then, bye" She grinned wickedly then rang Makato and Ami to let them in on the gossip.
A few hours later Usagi was sat in front of her vanity mirror brushing out her golden hair. "I hope tomorrow goes well Luna and that Harley isn't some spoilt little kid. If things go well it will be good experience I think for when I get a job, otherwise I might end up having a break down" She giggled and reached out a hand to the black cat that was sat on the vanity mirror, her hand running over her smooth black fur then tickling her under the chin. She went back to brushing her hair before placing down her brush and picking up her beloved feline. She glided over to her bed and placed Luna at the foot of her bed before climbing into it and turning off the light, falling into a light slumber. Strange how she could be graceful when by herself but usually klutzed out when other people were around.
I hate hackers, trojan horses and viruses. I just had no internet connection for about a week and a half which meant no fanfiction reading or visiting my other site,I couldn't talk to some of my friends over in the states and my phone was the only way to contact people. So this was written while I sat there deprived along with many others that remain unfinished. Anyhow I saw my Baka today so the deprivation was forgotten ... kinda and he's had a hair cut and of course looks extremely stupid mowhaha while i have my cool new haircut that everyone loves (including baka) and upon seeing it he smiled and said "You look different Meegan" Well duh i had a fringe cut in hehe. Anyways I hope you like this story, I'm a bit unsure of wether i like it or not and i'm currently hyper thanks to cherry coke, ciao for now folks
