A/N: Hello there everyone :) This is my first Sailor Moon story, ever and it came on me on a total impulse, after re-watching some episodes from season 1 (fav. season by far).
Anyway, the story takes place during season one, shortly after the episode with Reika (Motoki's girlfriend).
WARNING: there are some things from the manga: 1st Mamoru always knew he was Tuxedo Kamen, 2nd he never dated Rei and 3rd there are no rainbow crystals, Zoisite is gathering energy too.
Ok, I think that's it, enjoy :)
Disclaimer: I own nothing, but the plot.
Double Jealousy
Chapter 1: PlanA Failed
This was her chance, the perfect day of spring to do this. It was now or never!
She poked her head out of the corner again to see where he was: 20 meters away. She ducked behind the wall of the Crown arcade again, hiding herself from his view.
'Today is the day I'm going to capture Chiba Mamoru's heart!' She thought, with fire burning inside her eyes.
Her plan was perfect. She knew he always walked by or hung out in this arcade and the proof was that he was walking towards her right now.
She poked her head out again: 10 meters away. Just a 10 meters of walking before she accidentally bumped into him and forced him out on a date with her without him noticing.
She hid herself again, closed her eyes and inhaled deeply, getting ready to start her plan. But, she did not see the blonde girl with a black cat pass her by.
She stepped out of the alley, ready to walk right into Mamoru when...bam!
Usagi was happily walking to the arcade, where she was going to play the Sailor V game, until Ami finished her cram school and Rei and Makoto got back from some shopping from the grocery store, for both of their houses.
She was skipping like usual, with Luna walking around her feet. The cat couldn't talk at the moment, due to the full streets of the Friday afternoon.
Usagi glanced at a newspaper thrown on the ground. There was a picture of Tuxedo Kamen on the front page but she didn't have time to read the titles at the moment.
'Tuxedo Kamen-sama,' Usagi inwardly sighed, closing her eyes as she remembered the sound of her hero's voice.
However she did not stop walking, a bad choice.
Bam!
Her face crashed into something hard...something familiarly hard. Of course it had to be him.
"Mooooo! Watch where you are going jerk!" She yelled at the person she was sure she had just bumped into.
"You were the one walking with closed eyes Odango Atama!" a man's voice yelled back at her.
Usagi opened her eyes, while rubbing her nose to see that she had, indeed, crashed into Chiba Mamoru.
"If you saw me, why didn't you move aside?" She asked.
"I did not see you in time to do so," He answered.
"And why is that? Were you walking with your eyes closed?" Usagi asked and shoved a finger right in front of his face.
"No, I was just blinded by the sun for a moment" He retorted, moving her hand away from his face.
"Why should I believe this excuse?" She yelled, her blood boiling more and more by the minute.
"It is not an excuse Odango Atama," Mamoru yelled back, getting angrier with the girl's usual attitude.
"Stop calling me that!" She shouted on top of her lungs. She hated that nickname.
"Why should I?" He asked mockingly, knowing how much his little pet name angered her.
"Because you know my name, so use it!" She literally growled at him. If she heard that name one more time, she was going to kill him!
"And again, why should I, Odango Atama?" Mamoru smiled at how red her face had become, only he could achieve that.
"That's it! I'm going to kill you!" Usagi made a threatening step towards him and he backed away from her. This girl could be dangerous when she was that angry but, still, the fun of it was worth it.
He was going to reply but at that moment Motoki came out of the arcade.
"You two, in now!" The green-eyed man commanded with authority in his voice as he moved away from the doors in order for the two to pass. "And don't you dare continue this inside, both of you in separate corners."
She was standing there, in the middle of the pavement, blinking.
Who was that little girl stealing her chance to crash into Mamoru and doing so herself?
And how dare she yell to him like that, Mamoru was perfect, no one could speak to him this way! She would never allow it.
She watched as both of them walked in the arcade, followed by the blonde man, who she recognized as Motoki. He had just came out and broke their fight.
Fight...truth be told, this was the first time she saw Mamoru like this. That much irritated and he was actually shouting. Yep, it was the only time she had seen him shouting at anyone.
Just who was that girl?
'Not someone that is going to steal my near-future-boyfriend!' She thought and walked towards the arcade, to spy on Mamoru, yet again.
Glossary
Tuxedo Kamen = Tuxedo Mask in the English Dub
Odango = Japanese dumpling and sweets made from mochiko (rice flour)
Atama = head in Japanese
Odango Atama = literally translates to Dumpling Head in Japanese or Meatball Head in the English Dub. In Japan it is also the name of a hairstyle in which girls gather their hair on the top of their head and tie it up into a ball.
A/N: well that was it, it came out short, probably because it's the first chapter. Anyway...
Have a good day, or night,
Ilianna :)
