Theme: #53 Giddy
It's been what, a whole week since my last post? Blech! Not really sure what I think of this one... Do you guys think it's too long and I should stop at the end of Usagi's part? Constructive criticism strongly encouraged! Enjoy!

Usagi danced her way through the door, bounded up the stairs, skipped into her room, then twirled around a few times for good measure. She fell breathlessly onto her soft bed a silly grin on her face.
Luna carefully approached the bed and stared curiously up at her young charge who was now twisting her golden hair around a finger while giggling softly.
“Usagi-chan?” Luna said questioningly, but the blonde seemed not to hear and continued to gaze dreamily at her ceiling.
Luna leaped up onto the bed. “Usagi-ch-“ She gave a startled meow as Usagi suddenly caught her up in a tight squeeze.
“Oh Luna, he asked me out!” She squealed, rubbing her face against Luna’s, “Mamo-chan actually asked me out!”
Luna squirmed out of her owner’s grasp, and began haughtily cleaning her ruffled fur.
“Well, what did you say?”
Usagi laughed. “That’s a stupid question! Of course I said…”
“…yes,” Mamoru crowed to Motoki, “Can you believe it! She actually said yes!”
“Yes, Chiba, I was here when you asked her,” Motoki replied for the umpteenth time.
Mamoru sighed dreamily, his eyes unfocused as he thought about their date and imagined how beautiful she would look when he picked her up from her house. He would hand her a helmet and her eyes would widen as she saw his motorcycle. Then she would climb on behind him and hold on tightly as they drove off into the setting sun…
“Umm, Chiba,” Motoki interrupted Mamoru’s daydream, “It’s really disturbing when you look at me like that. Could you please look at something else…”
“She said yes,” Mamoru whispered as if still unable to believe it himself.
Motoki rolled his eyes and tried to keep the annoyance out of his voice. “Yes, Chiba, I was here when you asked her…”
“She said yes.”
Motoki released a sigh of aggravation. The next time Minako asked him to play matchmaker he was going to refuse. No matter how many times she begged, or how many pictures she had of him wearing…
“She said yes.”
Motoki threw up his hands in surrender and stalked away from his lovesick friend. He’d awaken him from his daze later. Maybe a cup of coffee would work.
“She said yes.”
A cup coffee poured down his back.
Chuckling at the thought Motoki suddenly felt so much better as he went off to prepare a fresh cup of coffee for his best friend.
