---- The diary of Tsukino Usagi

        I have been trying my best to take my life one step at a time.
I constantly ask myself why I left my home. And so do my parents
(who keep writing asking the same thing) . It wasn't the scholarship I
received or the thought of traveling to another place, but the
pressure from Mamoru. Sometimes I wonder if I was overreacted but
he had become so possessive ....

        Her hands were halted by a pair of warm hands that wrapped
themselves around her palms. A soft voice whispered to her,
"Did you forget what today is?"
        Her heart skipped a beat. She quickly turned to see a tall male with
short-cropped brown hair standing behind her.
        He had a mischievous smile as he looked into her eyes.
        "Did I startle you?"
        A smile appeared upon her face, "You know you did."
        He patted her head gently, "Good."
        Usagi shut off her monitor, "My god.. Kevin, what do you want?"
        Kevin extended his hand to her, "Come with me."
        "Why?" she asked flatly.


        Usagi grumbled to herself as she was being taken, against her
will, to the other side of campus. She barely noticed that she had
left the secure grounds of the sophomore dorms and was now entering
the fraternity dormitories. He pointed to the announcement board and
smiled at her.
        "You want me to go to a Frat Party?!" hollered Usagi.
        Kevin placed a finger on Usagi's lips, hushing her quickly.
        "You know you want to go..."
        She glared angrily at him, her eyes flashing. "Remember the last
party your fraternity had on campus?"
        "Uh.."
        Usagi rolled her eyes, "Do police sirens ring a bell?"
        "Oh, I remember now. But this party is different."
        She muttered under her breath, hoping he didn't hear
her not-so nice words.
        "Just believe me, I am your friend right?"
        "I almost forgot..."

************************
        "So how do I look?" Usagi asked stepping from her room in a long
sleeveless gown. Her hair, tied up, was rolled in a bun with loose
strands of hair hanging beside her cheeks.
        Ken scanned Usagi's figure, "You look gorgeous. All of my brothers
are going to be jealous."
        "Now before we leave," she said with a smirk. "Tell me again the
purpose of this 'party' ?"
        Kevin swallowed hard for knew he was in for a tongue lashing.
        "We want to have a fancy dance to shut up our Sorority sisters."
        "Shut up?"
        "Uh no satisfy." he replied while grabbing her arm. "Let's go."

        The doors of the building belonging to Mu Phi Psi, opened slowly
as each guest entered the building. An ivory arch, decorated with
flowers and ivy, stood before an astonished group of guests. Usagi
blushed as she walked gracefully under the arch with her escort. He
placed his hand around her hips as his brothers looked at him with
wondering eyes. He pulled her closer and whispered in her ear, "I told
you, they would be so jealous of me.They are staring at us."

        Usagi blushed. She was, so far, this party had not turned into
the usual riot. Maybe this *was* a different party.
