Chibiusa's Pinch

Chapter 3

[Streets]

Chibiusa is walkin down the streets to school.

Chibiusa: (to herself) I'm gonna be late...but *sigh* I don't care. Pegasus...Peruru....do they love me or is it the other way around? Am I just making this up? Maybe Usagi was right, make this WAS a dream. What if one likes me but the other one doesnt? That would be a relief...but what if neither like me in that way?? What if they really ARE just visitng me! O_o;;

She had all these questions in her mind and finally arrived at school.

Sensei: Chibiusa you are late!
Chibiusa: Gomen sensei...
Sensei: Have a seat please.

Chibiusa sat down and day dreamed. She first pictured herself holding Pegasus's hand and then he would morph into Peruru. Suddenly she snapped out of it and got back to school mode.

[Usagi's Junior High]

Usagi is having lunch with Minako, Makoto and Ami.

Usagi: I been noticing Chibiusa acting strange.
Ami: Maybe she's getting a headache from your yelling? ^_^;
Usagi: Ami-chan!
Makoto: Maybe she's sick? Perhaps not enough nutrition? I can come over and make her something!
Usagi: Mako-chan can you make ME something??
Makoto: Usagi-chan! *sweatdrops*
Usagi: Hai hai!
Minako: Maybe she has a secret crush!
Usagi: Uso! There's no way she could be upset over a boy! That's not how Chibiusa is.
Minako: *with a sly look on her face* Why don't you spy on her Usagi-chan???
Ami: Minako-chan! That would be awful!
Minako: Heh heh well it was just an idea ^_^;
Usagi: Well in any case, I'm gonna confront her after school! I'm gonna find out what that little monster's up to!

Everyone sweatdrops and goes back to class.

[After school]

Chibiusa is walking home sulking and thinking about Pegasus and Peruru. Usagi is running home and bumps into her.

Chibiusa: Ahh! Baka Usagi-chan! Watch where you're going!
Usagi: Oh gomenasai Chibiusa-chan! I'm in a hurry. Mamo-chan promised to take me to have ice cream after school!!
Chibiusa: I thought you had to make up an exam.
Usagi: Ummm...exam?? ^^; No time to chat gotta run!

Usagi ran ahead of her. Chibiusa sweatdropped and walked home.

[Tsukino Residence]

Chibiusa walks into the house.

Chibiusa: Tadaima!
Diana: Hey Chibiusa-chan!

She runs up to her and jumps on her shoulder.

Chibiusa: Hey Diana! ^_^ I'm hungry, I'll go raid the refridgerator..if Usagi hasn't done so already.

She walks into the kitchen and sees the door of the refridgerator open and someone's picking food.

CHibiusa: Ikuko-mama?

The figure comes out...

Chibiusa: Pegasus!
Pegasus: Well hello there young maiden.
Chibiusa: Wow you're back..again!
Pegasus: Why yes, I was about to make us some lunch.
Chibiusa: Er...us?
Pegasus: Of course, nothing would be better than having lunch with the one you love.
Chibiusa: Love?? *sweatdrop*

Pegasus walked over to her and leaned his face close to hers making her blush a little.

Pegasus: What would you like on your sandwich?

Chibiusa sweatdropped.

Chibiusa: I'll have a tomato...

With that she fainted to the floor.

[Few minutes later]

Chibiusa opened her eyes to see Diana and Pegasus above her.

Diana: Chibiusa! Chibiusa! Are you ok?
Chibiusa: What happened?
Pegasus: Well I was asking you what kind of sandwich you wanted but you fainted. ^_^;
Chibiusa: Oh..

She blushed embarrasingly

Pegasus: Maybe we'll skip lunch. Want to go for a walk?
Chibiusa: Pegasus...what happened to your horn?
Pegasus: Well my princess, you see I now have the power to hide it that way we can both be seen in public without anyone giving me strange looks. ^^
Chibiusa: Hai.
Pegasus: So you up for it?
Chibiusa: Hai.

She got up and they walked out the door. Diana came along too, sitting on Chibiusa's head.

[Outside]

As they walked down the streets Chibiusa kept looking at Pegasus. Something about him was really familiar. Suddenly he stopped walking.

Chibiusa:...?
Pegasus: Well I have noticed you have been staring at me all this time....is something wrong?
Chibiusa: Oh I'm sorry..

Suddenly she looked right into his eyes and saw....Peruru! Chibiusa gasped.

Chibiusa: Oh my god!
Pegasus: What what's wrong?
Chibiusa: No nothing, I'm just seeing things.

They walked to a nearby cafe and sat down. Chibiusa had a milkshake.

Chibiusa: So are you always going to come back like this? Where do you stay when you're not with me? Tell me!
Pegasus: Well you WILL see me in your future, but I cannot reveal to you yet how. And where I stay is quite complicated so let's just leave that in the air until I can find the best time to explain to you.
Chibiusa: Oh I'm sorry for asking..
Pegasus: That's alright. ^_^ A girl as beautiful as you can ask me anything she desires.

Chibiusa blushed and drank her milkshake. It was getting dark outside.

Chibiusa: I think I better get home.
Pegasus: Alright m'lady, I'll escort you home.

He took her hand in his and walked home. Chibiusa felt a different feeling. The feeling of lonliness she had before was now obsolete. When they got to her house, she noticed some lights on.

Chibiusa: I can't let you walk in with me or my mom or baka Usagi-chan might get suspicious so I have to say goodnight to you here. You have somewhere to go right?
Pegasus: Of course my love.
Chibiusa: Well...goodnight! ^_^;

But before Pegasus made his exit he leaned down and gave her a soft kiss.

Pegasus: Goodbye maiden.

With that he dissapeared. Chibiusa put her hand on her lips and then grew a big smile. She walked into the house and ran straight up to her room and fell onto her bed. She completely forgot that Diana saw the whole thing.

Diana: *to herself* Well at least she's happy! ^_^

[Downstairs]

Ikuko: Usagi-chan what's wrong with Chibiusa?
Usagi: I don't have a clue mama-san. *to herself* But I'm gonna find out.
