More than a Friend

I base this fic on Broken glass. I really wanted to tell a story leading up to the breakup 
after I wrote the short story. I hope you enjoy it. I love what it written alread.Bla bla bla 
technical stuff.
	
“But why?” She asked.
	“I have to. I can’t go on knowing what opportunity I missed.”
	“Mamu-chan you could go to a collage here.”
	“Usako, do you know how easy it will be to get a job with a degree from 
America?”
	“I understand.”
	“I love you and will always. I’ll comeback for Christmas and Summer.”
	“I understand. Ja, I cannot stay. I have to go to rei’s to study.”
	“Ja.”
	She left the apartment. She was going to be late. She didn’t care because that 
means she can wipe the tears from her face and look half way decent. She got to the 
steps.
	Why next week? I don’t get it. Will I go through what I did last time or will it be 
worse? I’m almost there. I better wipe my tears.
	 She got inside. She forced herself to smile. She sat right down and began to 
work. Within an hour she was done.
	“Can you check it Ami-chan?” she asked.
	“Hai.”
	She looked it over. Looked up at Usagi. She was about to cry.
	“Usagi these are all correct.”
	Everyone looked at Ami as if she was off her rocker. 
	“Oh really. Wow. That’s weird.”
	“Something’s definitely wrong with you and Minako today. You two are quite.”
	“Well I don’t know what’s wrong with Usagi but I miss Yaten-kun!”
	She began to cry.
	“What’s wrong with you Usagi?”
	“Mamu-chan is going to America.”
	Everyone was speechless, except Minako who was crying even harder now.
	“Well Usagi we’re there for you and Minako I think I got something to cheer you 
up.”
	“Vogue! Yay it is new. Look inside it has something on the three lights.”
She scanned the pages while every one was helping Usagi. Makoto offered her a 
handkerchief. Minako eye’s light up. 
“Guys you won’t believe this. Look Rei.”
Rei began to read it. She too became wide eyed.
“It says that the Three lights are holding a concert in 1 week. How odd? I’m 
guessing if they’re not here they’re coming back.”
“Oh my it’s no fair. Why do they always show up when Mamu-chan leaves? It’s 
no fair. Why does he have to leave?”
“Usagi-chan. Its fate.”
“Baka. Rei there is no such thing as fate. There is destiny but not fate. Fate is like 
death. That’s why it’s a fatal crash.”
“Sleep on it Usagi. Remember we’re there for you.”
She left. Rei was quite mad, but could understand why Mamoru would go back. 
Mamoru wanted to be successful. Usagi just wanted Mamoru. She knew what was going 
to happen but would always keep her mouth shut. For them, for them.

 
Usagi was sitting at her desk. She didn’t talk to any of her friends that morning. 
They let her be because they knew she didn’t want to talk to them right then. Her friends 
walked behind her to hear if she was crying. They never caught her. They pain she hid 
was great.
“The Onadago atama I know never cries with out a good cause.”
She turned to a desk across from her. No one was there.
Was that Seiya-kun? I thought it was him. Why did I think of that just now?
“Cheer up.”
She turned around to the other side. No one was there.
	“I know your there. I could recognize that voice. Stop playing games.”
	He popped up in front of her.
	She screamed.
	“Don’t do that Seiya-kun. You scared me out of my wits. Don’t ever scare me like 
that again. Go away, you’re so mean.”
	“Relax I didn’t mean to scare you.”
	“Well you did. Now go, I don’t really FEEL like talking to you.”
	“Aww, that’s sad no welcome back, no how’s it been?”
	“Didn’t you just here me?”
	“Yes I did. I just don’t care. For when a friend is sad, I must help.”
	She just replied to that by barring her head in her arms. Tears were no longer on 
her face. Her sadness was felt through all her friends. 
	“Well I can’t do anything if you won’t let me. Ja ne.”
	He walked over to Makoto.
	“What’s wrong with Usagi? She’s never been this sad.”
	“Mamoru-san has decided to go back to America. It pains both of them, demo I 
think her the most.”
	“That’s awful. I wish I could do something. She won’t even talk to me except to 
tell me to go away.”
	“This sucks.”
	“You can say that again.”
	Classes soon got started. The bell rang and Usagi bolted out the door.  She 
promised to spend every day with Mamoru, until he went. She was excused from the 
study group. Minako followed Yaten around until he reached the apartment.
	“If there is only one thing I wish that I didn’t have to see is Minako-chan. She is 
annoying.”
	“Okay Yaten calm down. She might just be stalking you.”
	“Arigato Taiki that’s what she’s doing. Stalking me.”
	“So who cares..” Said a bumed Seiya.
	“What’s your problem?” asked Yaten.
	“Oh he’s just sad don’t pay attention. Well ja I have to meet Ami at the library.”
	“I don’t see how you people can be so involved with them. Boring and klutzy.”
	“Take that back Yaten,” Seiya said.
	“Or what Mr. threatening?”
	“Or I’ll give you a black eye to go with that big mouth.”
	“I’m shaking Seiya. I’m real scared.”
	Seiya hit him hard. He would have a black eye from that. Taiki was so ashamed of 
them. They acted like children.	
	“Well kill each other if you must, but try not to get too much blood on the carpet.”
	He left. He first stopped in the hallways. He didn’t know why but he did. 
	“Never say anything about Usagi-chan again. You don’t know what it’s like. You 
never had your heart broken. She has more strength than you or me. I highly doubt you 
have a heart. If you did you might like Minako-chan.”
	Yaten stood up. He was never believed Seiya had the guts to hurt him. He knew 
he was being sarcastic. Yaten walked out the door. He was dazed. He still could not 
believe that just happened. He knew it was true because it still hurt. His eye got all puffy 
when Rei saw him.
	“Yaten-kun. What happened?”
	“Seiya hit me.”
	“Come on I have to take you to the temple. You need care.”
	She led him all the way there. He was a little groggy from all the lack of sleep. He 
felt really bad. He felt a little dizzy and sick. He was burning up.
	“Rei are we there yet?”
	“Just up those steps.”
	“Ok.”
	He was lucky he made it all the way in the door. He could hear things but not see 
them.
	“You’re going to be ok.”
	“Yes Rei,” Yaten said.
	“He’s burning up Grandpa and loosing conscienceness.”
	He couldn’t hear anything after that. When he woke up he saw Rei’s face and 
smiled. Then he saw Minako’s face.
	“Aw, how sweet of you to come Minako-chan.”
	“You’re right Rei he is delusional. He’s never been nice to me before.”
	“I’m not it’s just really thoughtful of you.”
	“I made you some curry.”
	Minako brought it in. Rei “accidentally” knocked it out of her hands. She went to 
get a broom crying.
	“Believe me I did you a favor. It would have killed you.”
	Yaten laughed.
	“I’m not kidding. It would have.”
	Minako is so caring. Hell I’m not getting mushy. No way in a million years am I 
falling for a girl like that. She tries. Maybe I should go on one date with her. Maybe in 
three years.


	Taiki came back and say Seiya. He didn’t see Yaten.
	“Where’s Yaten?”
	“I don’t care.”
	“Ok why the hell are you like this?”
	“It’s because of Usagi. She deserves someone better that Mamoru-san. He’s going 
back to America. It’s awful she wouldn’t even talk to me today. She was too sad. She 
didn’t even say hi or asked how we were. He leave’s her again. I don’t get it, if I were 
Usagi’s boyfriend I would never do anything to make her cry. She is a princess. Well 
even if she wasn’t a real princess she would be my princess. Man love sucks.”
	“Only when you can’t get something you love. You can protect it but not have it.”
	“Where’s Yaten?”
	“Hello any one there I just asked you that.”
	“Oh gomen. He’s fine I’m guessing.”
	“Oh guess who I ran into.”
	“Who?”
	“Haruka-san and Michiru-san.”
	“Oh that’s peachy keen. That’s what I need some one else to hate me.”
	“They don’t hate you. You don’t get it. Anyone who protects Usagi is okay in 
their book. You see Usagi is like a daughter to them.”


	She watched his plane take off. She cried quietly. She soon walked away. She 
went to the escalator. She decided she had better not risk the stairs.
	“No one is admitted pass this point.”
	“Seiya-kun?”
	“Yes it’s me. I figured you need a friend.”
	He stuck his hand out. She grabbed a hold. He hugged her. She cried, she didn’t 
care who saw her. She looked up.
	“He’ll be back, but for now I’ll take care of you.”
	“I know, arigato Seiya.”
	

	“Taiki, Yaten, The one the only Seiya is back. This time more confidant than 
ever.”
	“Is that possible Yaten?” Taiki asked.
	“I don’t think so Taiki. Seiya have you check your brain about this? I’m pretty 
sure you haven’t.”
	“You two are spending way two much time together.”
	“So why all this happiness all of a sudden?” Asked Yaten.
	“Mamoru Chiba is gone. Usagi-chan is crying and needs a strong friend like me to 
comfort her. Sweetness of success.”
	“What success? All I see is your getting nowhere.”
	“Bzzzzzzz. You’re wrong, you would see that but I see it as one step closer to 
happiness.”
	“Okay he’s gone off the deep end, off his rocker, not in his mind, became a 
mental patient.” Yaten said.
	“Thank you Yaten for that update on Seiya’s condition. Now here is an in-depth 
report by me Taiki.”
“Okay you’ve had your fun guys.”
“In world news singer in the sensational group the three lights has been 
committed. Stay tune for more information,” Taiki said.
“OKAY THAT’S ENOUGH.”
“Yea Taiki we all know what he might do. It’s because he’s been.”
Yaten mimicked a drinker. 
“Okay fine that’s it. Next time we’re on tour we sing all Nagaraboshi he in every 
city.”
	They all groaned. 
	“Torture pure torture,” Yaten said.
	The phone rang. Seiya picked it up.
	“Moushi, Moushi, Kou residence. What?”

That’s it. What do you think?
