"You can return it to me tomorrow." "Huh?" I say looking up at him. "Just return it to me tomorrow, nothing more, nothing less." He states as he trails off.

As I sat down on my bed, I realize something. This week has been really strange. From being attacked by a monster, being stranded by a middle schooler, and the mysterious or you could even call it dramatic boy.
Without realizing it, I sigh. This week has taken a large toll on me. I flop backwards onto my bed. Something through my window catches my attention.
"The stars are out!" I shout out while rushing to my window. The stars only happen sometimes. Not always. I feel as if they are a peaceful break, a stress reliever. I smile at the star gleaming through my window.
In the corner of my eye, I spot Tuxedo Mask. Out of nowhere, he pops up on a building posted closely near my window. "Ah, the man who made me feel strangely embarrassed." I murmur with an annoyed expression on my face.
As soon as Tuxedo Mask jumps to a neighboring building, a shooting star passes by. "Woah." I gasp staring at the beautiful star.
I quickly glance over to where Tuxedo Mask was and I see him stopped on the building staring at the meteor passing by in awe.
Tuxedo Mask realized what he was doing and ran off to the next jewelry store. I giggle. Then I realize I did the exact thing. "Ugh.." I mumble, slouching at my windowsill with my head down tucked into my arms.
Recently on the news, I've seen reports of Tuxedo Mask breaking into jewelry stores but not taking anything. Sometimes, I want to know more about what happens when he does his 'investigating.'
As soon as I lift my head to go return to my bed, a brooch laid flat on my my catches my eye. "Huh..?" I said as I searched the brooch with my eyes. "Has that always been there?" I ask myself.
As I grab the brooch to investigate it more, while sitting on my bed, another shooting star passes.
A bright light starts to shine from the brooch causing me to freeze in shock. I flinch causing me flunk off of my bed. A short yelp escapes my lips as I hit the ground.
Instead of a smooth cotton feel from the collar of my pajamas, I feel a silky ribbon. I lay on ground with a blank expression trying to process what just happened.
"Huh.." I questioned. I stand up, still in awe from the bizarre situation. I look at myself through the reflection of my window, I see myself in a sparkling Sailor costume. I stare at my reflection.
I notice my hair has grown longer, twisted into long low pigtails with red ribbons enticed in them. I have a golden colored collar with a star-shaped brooch in the middle. A large light-gray ribbon supports the medium sized brooch.
There is also white gloves along with some sort of golden elbow pieces attached to them. As I turn to the side, I notice I have golden star earrings and a necklace with a golden star attached to the middle of it.
As I look at my backside, I see a large gray ribbon hanging off a golden skirt. The skirt has a white belt with a golden star in the middle, similar to the necklace. I have golden boots with a star & and a golden trim at both the bottom and the top of my boots.
Just to ease my shock, I spin around inspecting myself once more. I feel my face stretching into a scared face more than a calm one.
This time I notice a tiara with sparkling jewels resting at the top. "I don't like this." I repeat to myself while trying to calmly rest on my bed.
I try to take off the gloves but they seem like their perfectly glued onto my hands. Before another yelp can escape me, I cover my mouth.
With tears in my eyes, I try to think of the cause and solution to awake this disastrous dream. Alright, think... Think Y/N, think!
"Ah... The sky?" I question, glacing at my window.
That's what I looked at before this happened. I rush back to my window, pleading with the glass to turn me back.
"Pew, Pew, Pew.." Goes the wind. Wait.. I don't think that was the wind. I quickly open my window and leap off of the ledge.
As I soar through the air, I realize what I just did. I scream as loud as possible, not caring that it sounded identical to a mouse.
I flail my arms as I go down. But, I don't hit the ground. I look around at my surroundings and see Tuxedo Mask holding me in that same position as when we first met.
We both exchange a blank look, but still looking different. We may have said the same thing with our eyes, but not with facial expressions. "We shall never talk about this, Mr. Tuxedo Mask." I state firmly as I run off, embarrassingly tripping on my boots.
