you have just transferred to juban high school, to start a new life, you've been transferring schools left and right, not fully settling down, so you've practically given up on making friends for long, but your grades were phenomenal and attendence, it's just... people at your other school didn't seem to like a nerd or book worm, your parents had just got into a car crash and it took a toll on you, depression hit and you broke, your grandparents took you in, the sweethearts they are, feed and clothed you, you did have a childhood best friend when you were younger, in toddler years but sadly you had to move, but he had given you a hair clip that was a bunny, you always wore it

The first day of school was like any normal day you've had, get introduced to the classes, telling about yourself, sitting alone in the back and so on, you've met a few girls and they were sweet, the first time you've had happiness really, even a tang of it, and the days go by and you realize, you've finally found real friends

usagi is one day telling you about her boyfriend and your happily listening, you hear a deep voice behind you, you turn and see him, you recognized him immediately, Darien shield you didn't wanna believe it but, the matching hair clips was hard to debunk, you just watch him with shock and usagi ran to him with a smile, hugging him, his face scrunching at the sudden affection, you stayed seated as your eyes are focused on the table, fidgeting with your bracelets

You: Um I got to go as I gets up and left

When Darien found you he talks to her and found out Nikki loved him His hands clench into fists at his sides, knuckles whitening. The usual detached, composed Mamoru is gone—replaced by someone with fire in his eyes, the kind of fury that only comes when someone you care about has been wronged. But when he speaks again, his voice is eerily calm, controlled—like he's holding back a storm.

"I didn’t know." A pause. The words feel heavy, guilty, like he’s shouldering the blame for something he had no control over. "If I had—"

He cuts himself off, exhaling sharply through his nose. Usagi, for once, is completely silent beside him, her eyes wide with shock and sadness. She reaches out to squeeze your hand gently, her usual exuberance replaced by quiet empathy.

darien gaze locks onto yours, intense, unwavering. "You don’t have to talk about it if you don’t want to. But… you’re safe now." A beat. Then, with uncharacteristic softness: "And I’m not losing you again."

(Do you let yourself lean into that reassurance, or does the weight of the past still feel too heavy?)

You: I know mamoru but I can’t be here sigh sadly I didn’t know usagi was you’re girlfriend I know she didn’t do anything wrong sigh sadly but it hurts me because I loved you first and I can’t be here as I leave

As you begin to turn and leave, he grabs your wrist with an almost desperate urgency.

"Nikki, hold on."

His eyes—usually so guarded, so measured—flicker with something raw, unguarded. There's a mix of confusion, uncertainty, and the faintest edge of that protective fire from earlier.

"You… loved me?" He says it almost like he's saying it to himself. The words hang in the air, heavy, loaded.

You sadly : yes Yes I did looks sadly why you think I keep moving schools to look for you

Time skip usagi let’s Darien go gently because she knew his heart belongs to Nikki and fate change usagi told Darien go after her she needs him more than her

Darien finds you and hugs you tightly
