C&C is appreciated. Don't flame me for the pairings. Otherwise, go nuts. Fourthly, MiSTs are welcome...even encouraged. ;) Enjoy... --- "Hey, Ami, can I ask you a question?" I'm talking with Ami at a coffee shop. I saw her and decided to say hi. Something made me remember a recurring dream, and I thought I should maybe ask her. I mean, she is going into medicine. Maybe she's read up on her Freud lately. "Sure, what is it?" "I've had this weird dream. I've been having it for the last few weeks. It always starts with me and Usagi in a study session." "Seems kind of out of the ordinary..." "Ami!" I say, my voice full of mock anger. "You know, I think you're finally developing a sense of humour." "Thanks." she replies. "Anyways, we're studying, but suddenly she starts looking at me with this seductive smile on her face...and then we--" I trail off. "Interesting..." Ami seems to be tossing the information around in her mind. "It might be that it's your true feelings for her. They're just surfacing like this. To tell you the truth, it could very well be anything." "Well, thanks, Ami-chan..." --- "Rei, could I ask you a question?" Rei had a little bit of a problem with a recipe she was trying to cook for dinner. It seems she misread the cookbook and set the oven to 525º instead of the called-for 325º. So, naturally, she phoned the food help line--me. I went over to her temple to help, but that dream keeps haunting me. I thought maybe Rei might be of some help." "If you're wondering how I could have misread the cookbook, I was sure it was 525." "Nono, it's alright. At least you caught your mistake in time to be salvaged. I was thinking about a dream I've been having for the last few weeks. Maybe you could help me decipher what it might mean." "Alright. What happens?" "I'm in a study session with Usagi. I don't usually remember the subject--math or science or something. I don't know. But Usagi always starts to smile, really seductively--and it kinda gets hotter from there." "Well, I'm probably not the best person to answer this, but I'd say you've got a crush on her. You might just be in denial or something. Why don't you ask Ami?" "Did. She said the same thing." "Oh. If the dream's really bothering you that much, why don't you talk to Usagi about it?" "I don't know. Probably some fear she'll be shocked, or worse, laugh. Nothing substansial." --- "Mina-chan, can I ask you a question?" I'm out at the mall with Minako. She decided to invite me since she hasn't been in...must be _days_. "You just did." "That's not what I meant. You're pretty good at matters of the heart, right?" "Yeah. You see a boy that _doesn't_ remind you of your old boyfriend?" "Not exactly. I've been having this dream for about a month now. I've already talked to Ami and Rei, and I'm still not sure. It starts with me and Usagi studying math, I think. It's not that important. Anyway, Usagi always gives me this seductive glance--you know the one. Looks more like it should be a guy looking like that at you--and, well..." "Say no more." Minako replies. "You know, I had the same kind of dream over this boy in my class a few years back--only it wasn't that hot and heavy, that's replaced with him asking to marry me--and it turned out to be I was in love with him. I couldn't stop thinking about the dream, and--him. It didn't work, though. He wasn't interested." She looks like she's about to slip into one of her rare depressions. "Hey, don't wory about it. If the creep wasn't interested, it must not have meant anything, right?" "I guess so." Minako replies. --- This is driving me crazy. I'm completely torn over whether I should talk to Usagi. The rational part has no problems with talking it over with Usagi. It's only a dream, right? But the emotional side of me is still deathly afraid of rejection. What if she laughs at me? I can hear it. "Oh, Mako-chan! I'd have never thought it in a million years!" And neither would I. The rational side is slowly gaining ground, though. I just have to gather up my confidence. --- "Hey, Usagi, can I ask you something?" I'm at lunch with Usagi. We're just talking, but just being with her is bringing forth memories of the dream. "Sure, Mako-chan, what is it?" "Well, I've been having this dream." "A dream? Maybe Ami would be better suited to deal with this. She knows about that psycologist guy. What was his name? Fraud?" "Freud. And I've already talked to her. And Rei and Minako, for that matter. The dream--well, it has you in it." "Really?" "Yeah. We're studying..." "Me? Study?" She says, a big smile on her face. "Not without being chained up!" "Yeah, I kinda figured that. Anyways, the fact we're studying is not that important. About 5 minutes in..." I'm incredibly nervous. I have to get this over with. "Well, you start giving me this look." Usagi's expression changes. She seems to recognize this. "When did you start having this dream?" "About a month ago." "And does it end up with you...and me..." "Yeah. How did you know that? "I've been having the same dream." "You have? Well, I was wondering if you know what it might mean." "I think it might be a vague memory of the Silver millenium. I mean, me and Mamo-chan are still married and everything, but...I don't know. I think we might have been lovers." "You know, that kind of makes sense. Wonder why it's been in our dreams for the last month." "That I have no clue about. Once, that I can deal with. But for this long...maybe it's supposed to be a sign. Maybe we have some feelings for each other we don't know about yet." "That's what I got from it, too." "Yeah. You want to trade lunches?" --- The end. Ending notes: Decided to take a small reference to At the Crack of Mercury here, and put in that little thing about Usagi only studying if she was "chained up". Hey, before you flame me for that, look at my other Lemons. Lots more ripoffs where that came from (Artemis's Lover comes to mind real fast...) Ryn0r
