Hey everyone. I'll bet that when you were reading chapter 2 of Beginnings, there was an important thing that many of you may have not have picked up. A question that was left unanswered. What you ask? Well, when Endymion met up with Serenity in the forest and gave her a rose, didn't that puzzle you? It didn't I bet. But answer me this, what flowers do you know that would survive in the wintertime? Yes, it was wintertime. So if it was wintertime, where did he get the flower? Another thing, did you also realize that the title for my fanfic PMYLMF came from the inscription in the ring? Watch out for those questions that I don't mention out loud. If something puzzles you, keep it in mind. Remember to keep in mind not just what they say, but the things that they do. Also keep in mind that everything won't be completely resolved until the last story in my series 'Growing Love: Problems'. Make sure to read my comment at the end of the chapter, I have important news that I'm sure you would want to hear. By the way, this chapter is definitely Hentai. Beginnings Chapter 6 By Millennium Guard Insert from "If I Never Knew You", from Pocahontas Soundtrack 'If I never knew you, If I never felt this love, I would have no hate enough How precious life can be. And I'm so grateful to you, I would live my whole life through Lost Forever, if I never knew you. If I never knew you I'd be safe but half as real Never knowing how I'd feel, A love so long and true.' "Usako wait!!!" Darien exclaimed right before she stepped through the portal. She stopped dead in her tracks, and yet did not turn around. "What do you want? She comes all the way over here giving up practically everything for you and you turn her away like some heartless cold beast!" Mina exclaimed coldly. What she said really hurt him, but he thought that perhaps he deserved it for hurting Serena. "Haven't you done enough?!" She continued. "She kept going on about how she wanted me to meet you...but I don't see nothing here but a heartless cold jerk!" Serena slapped Mina across the face. "I'm sorry Mina" Serena began saying softly. "But don't ever talk about the man I love in that way." She reprimanded her softly but firmly. Mina knew she was serious at that point and that she better not cross Serena, because she wasn't acting like Sere her cousin and friend right now, she was acting like Princess Serenity, her superior. "I-I'm sorry Princess...It'll never happen again." Mina quickly added and then knelt before her. "You're forgiven...now rise and leave us." Serena replied. Darien was shocked at what he had just witnessed; he had never seen his Usako act in a position of authority. He began to wonder what Usako wasn't telling him, he knew that Mina was her cousin, but for some reason he had a feeling she was something more. Frankly, he was happy that it was in his favor though. He stood there quietly for a while before she finally turned around to reveal her face that was red, wet, and puffy from tears. "You wanted to talk to me?" She said coldly. He realized then that she had already changed out of her wedding clothes. "Usako...I'm so sorry." He said as he took small steps towards her, but she backed away. "Usako...it-it was a misunderstanding." He finally said. "What's to misunderstand...you said you wanted me to go, and I'm going. Pretty cut and dry. No misunderstandings here." She said without emotion while at the same time she adverted his eyes. "When we were talking before...I-I thought that the reason why you didn't think it would work...was because you decided that this was wrong...and...and that you didn't want to marry me...and I loved you too much to pressure you into marrying me if you didn't want to." He replied softly. When he was done talking she immediately looked up to see him sitting on a bench with his head in his hands. She quietly walked over to where he was and sat next to him. She then proceeded to take his head and pull him close to her chest where she held him for a while before talking. "Oh Darien...I love you so much." She said softly and then kissed the top of his head. "I-I was crying because I feel like it was just yesterday when I told my mom that I wanted to marry for love...and she told me...she told me that she had a feeling that I was going to marry my soul mate." She began. "And here I am...just like she said, about to marry my soul mate and...and that's when I realized that she wouldn't be here to tell me her famous words 'Princess Serenity Usagi Gustof the III I told you so.' " Serena began crying towards the end of her sentence. "I love you Darien...but-but sometimes I wish there was another way. That it didn't have to be this way." He flopped onto his back so that his face was facing hers while his head lie in her lap. "Usako...I'm sorry that this isn't the wedding you always wanted...and I'll do anything to make it up to you." He replied quickly. "I love you so much...and I couldn't take it if you were unhappy." "It's not just the wedding...I want to stay with you forever, but who am I kidding...who knows how long this is really going to last." She cried. "Usako don't say that...it was meant to be...it'll last forever, and that's because we both love each other very much." He quickly added. "That's not what I meant." She replied softly. "There's something I haven't told you. I was hoping that it wouldn't happen but it has already begun." "What, what has happened?" He asked her softly. "My mother was talking to me...and she says they know that someone has been breaking into Earth's atmosphere...and that it will only be a matter of 3-4 moon days before they find out who has been leaving." "Usako...what does this mean for us?" "It means that in about a month, Earth's time, they'll come looking for me, and maybe...maybe find me even." Usako finished and then looked away with tears in her eyes. "I-I can't...I can't hide anywhere...I can't go, can't leave. I feel like...like a bird in a cage, trapped, and...and I can't get out." She cried. Darien immediately lifted himself from her lap and cradled her in his arms as she cried her heart out. "Oh Usako, someone so sweet as you should not have to have such a burden to bare." Darien replied as he combed his fingers through her hair. "Are you mad at me?" She mumbled against his chest. "Why ever for?" "I've gotten you all mixed up in this mess...and I may have put you in danger...Oh I wish...I wish we never met...then none of this would be happening. Then your life would not be in danger." She cried. "No, Usako...Look at me." He said as he took her from his chest and made her face him. "I'd rather die a hundred deaths than to walk around this Earth never knowing you. I've never wanted to be with someone so much...that it hurts to think what a world without him or her would be like; what a world without you would be like. Usako, don't make me try to imagine a world without you in existence...I could never" He said as he got closer to her face so that they were merely inches apart. "Never ever." He whispered in front of her face before kissing her fully on the lips. She slowly placed her hands on the base of his neck and slipped her fingers in his hair. He pulled her closer to him and she placed her legs over his lap. A moan managed to escape from his lips as he slid his hand up her thigh and beneath the dress she was wearing to massage it. That only served to elicit a moan from her lips. "Oh God I want you now." He said huskily against her throat as he began to send hot lingering kisses up and down it. Usually she would have stopped him, but she was beyond caring as she felt she was in a world created for just the two of them. He had begun to pull down the sleeve near her collarbone when someone cleared their throats and disrupted them. Both of them were more or less startled out of their revere and looked angrily upon their disrupters. "What?" Darien and Serena said in unison. Malachite and Mina attempted to cover a chuckle in response. "As much as I would hate to bother you, the priest can't stay here forever." Mina commented. "Are you guys getting married or not?" Malachite finally asked and Darien turned to Serena. "What do you think?!" She said sarcastically as she removed her legs from Darien's lap and pulled him up with her. "Come on!" She giggled. @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ Serena stood in the bathroom looking at the mirror as she pulled the pins from her hair and let it cascade down her back. She was extremely nervous. Her mind kept asking questions like 'What if he doesn't like me', or 'What if I'm not good enough', or 'What if it hurts so much that I can't make it good for him.' As she drawled onto herself, she began to think about the events that took place to get her where she was. She couldn't believe that she was where she was, nor what she was wearing. It would be the first time she had ever let a man see her like this before, the first time that she had ever touched a man like this before. She didn't know if she could step out there like this, looking so seductive; it wasn't like her to try and be seductive. But then again this was different, this was for him; it was always different when it came to Darien. She began to access what she was wearing. She adorned a long spaghetti strapped lingerie that was a light ice blue. Her back was bare and she had a long slit on each side of her dress that went all the way up passed mid thigh. She was wearing underwear underneath that matched her outfit but no bra. Once again, the fiery bold Rei and the warrior of Love Minako, gave her this as a present, and told her that she should where it for him. They were always picking out things for her to wear that were slightly revealing when she was supposed to go to the ball, and now they had probably bought the most scandalous outfit they could find. She paced back in forth trying to get enough courage to face him. Meanwhile in the bedroom... He sat on the bed contemplating this whole matter. He felt he was too eager to bed her, and he was scared that he might go to fast. Sure he's had sex before, but he's never made love to someone he loved, nor has he ever made love to a virgin. He wanted so much to make her first time special. Serenity was a fragile woman, and if he didn't handle her just right, he might hurt her too much. He didn't know how long he could wait for her to come out of the bathroom, and he wanted to go and see if she was all right, but then he reminded himself that it was her first time and she was probably just nervous. He had to let her come out on her own. Even if what he really wanted to do was go to that bathroom, pull her out, throw her on the bed and get in between her legs. He chuckled deeply when he tried to picture the shocked look on her face if he was to do just that. His thoughts were jumbled as he heard the door finally open and she stepped out with her head down. She didn't want him to see her blushing. He thought she looked absolutely beautiful and he couldn't believe at that moment that she was his. He stood up from the bed and mumbled her name huskily. "Usako...you are the most beautiful woman I have ever seen." He said as she slowly took the steps to walk up to him. He met her half way and pulled her close. She slowly placed her arms around his broad shoulders. She thought it very ironic that in their dreams she had always been this close to him, and they had always been wearing about the same thing, and yet suddenly it felt different. It felt different because she knew that from here there was no turning back, she would give her body and her soul to this man tonight. She would give as much as she could give him wanting nothing in return, but throughout all this she could not help but think of the pain that she would have to endure. "Nervous?" He whispered into her hair. "Is it that obvious?" She said softly. "Dance with me...Usako." He said and she placed her hands on the base of his neck and rocked her back in forth in the place where they stood. "Usako, Usako, my sweet Usako, my angel, my one and only Usako." He sang softly into her ear over and over again. She giggled at this as it released some of the nervousness and tension she was feeling. She quivered when she felt his hot breath against her neck before planting his lips there. She closed her eyes and let the heaven of that moment take over as she placed one arm underneath his own and up his back while they other hand was curdled up in his hair. She felt like she was melting beneath him, and if it wasn't for the fact that he was holding her close and tightly, she just may fall over. She began to softly whisper to him her feelings. "I-I never felt this way...this desire I feel for you...I've never touched a man before...your-your kiss was the first that I had tasted...I love you so much." She said huskily. "Oh Usako...I'm...so happy...here with you...I'm so selfish...Usako...I don't want any...other man...to touch you but me." He said against her throat as he continued to send lingering kisses on it. "I've dreamed...of this for so long...but no dream...could compare to being here...in reality with you." He moaned. His kisses trailed up to her mouth and she parted her lips for his entrance. Their tongues did a dance of desire as she felt his hands move to her straps. The straps themselves had snaps so that one could easily just snap them open. She thought as she felt her lingerie pool down to the floor at her feet. She thought as he released her from the kiss. "You're absolutely beautiful Usako." He said huskily as he stepped back and admired her figure. She looked down and blushed at that and wanted nothing more than to pull her arms up and cover her body as she felt his heated gaze upon her. But he was her husband, she said to herself and he had a right to see her, to admire her; so she reluctantly stood there while he slowly circled her and at the same time passed fingers along her body. She shivered at his touch, but yet at the same time didn't want him to stop. He stopped again in front of her and bent to her ear and began to make her promises of what was to come. "My wife in name...soon in other ways as well." He said huskily eliciting a moan from her. "I'm going to make you scream my name Usako...till it's the only word you know." He finished before he wrapped his arms around her body and began kissing her neck again. She moaned again as she felt his head slowly lowering down her body with his hands moving with him down her back. He stopped at her breast and then without warning he lifted her off the ground, walked to the bed and slowly deposited her there. He lay beside her and she was completely shocked when he bent his head to her one breast and began to lick. "Dariennn" Serena moaned in surprise. She plunged her fingers in his hair as a sudden heat was overtaking her body. She suddenly felt as if her breast was created just so that he could do this to her. When her mother explained sex to her, it made Serena giggle and blush, but she surely didn't mention this; she didn't tell her that man might do this to you. In fact, now that she thought about it her mother was very vague when it came to describing sex to her, and now she knew why. No one could possibly ever describe it all; you would have to be there to understand. No matter how heated the moment got, or how much she wanted him to stop, he wouldn't. She arched her back and moaned his name again as he began to suckle her breast. She thought that when he stopped torturing that breast that it was over, but he merely continued on with the other. She thought that she was going to explode. Was it really just the other day when she had received her first kiss, and now this? She heard him moan and grunt in response to her own moans. She asked herself as she felt his hand slide down her body to where her underwear was. His hand moved to her inner thigh and she moaned when it slipped beneath and circled her mound. She was surprised once more when she felt his fingers pass through her channel and she arched her back and moaned his name loudly. "Dariennnn!" She moaned as his index and middle finger circled within her. "Usako." He said huskily. "Ride it Usako...ride it." He commanded her huskily into her ear. "But I don't know" "Like this." He interrupted her and moved her body showing her the motions and then she began thrusting on her own. "Dariennnn!" She moaned louder than before as she continued to thrust onto his fingers. It hurt her a little, but at the same time it felt good. He continued suckling on her breast, pleasuring her as much as possible. "Usako!!" He moaned. She wanted more and more of it, as it soon became like a drug. The feel of his fingers in her made her feel like she was on fire. She began to thrust faster with a need to reach something, yet she didn't know what. She felt something coming, yet she was unsure of what it was. He knew she was on the verge of her first climax. His thoughts were confirmed as he felt her start to tighten around his fingers. "Dariennnn!!!!!" She moaned loudly as it hit her and she shuddered. "Oh, Usako!!!" He moaned as he felt her muscled tighten greatly around his fingers, trapping them inside. The room was soon filled with her intoxicating scent and he reveled in it, as he could feel her juices all over his fingers. He released her breast and used his free hand to hold her. "I-I never knew it would feel so good." She said innocently and she panted. "This is just the beginning my love." He said as he felt that his manhood pushing against his boxers. He arose from her taking his finger from within her since she had relaxed and pulled off his boxers. He then removed her underwear from her body so that they were both completely naked. She starred at his member in wonder as he knelt in front of her. "I-I've never seen one before." She said and then blushed as she realized what she had just said. "It's beautiful...Darien." She said causing him to quiver. She slowly brought her hand down from his neck and down his washboard stomach and to his manhood and rubbed it with the back of her hand causing him to jerk. She pulled back but he only coaxed her into continuing. "Touch me...Usako." He said huskily as if it were a need. She slowly brought her hand back up to him and began to rub it again. "Is-is it always...this way?" She asked innocently as she had felt its hardness. He chuckled at her innocent curiosity. "No Usako...you did this to me." He replied. She looked in his eyes and then replied to his comment. "S-sorry." She replied. He couldn't help but chuckle deeply at her innocence. "N-no Usako...this is not a bad thing. This happened because I want you so much. See how much power you have over me? So innocent, and yet so sexy and enticing" He replied huskily into her ear. She was shocked when he said that, the idea that she could have such power over him made her more bold in her actions towards him. With this in mind, she then decided that she wanted to make him feel as he had made her feel moments before. She placed both hands on his manhood and began to move her hands up and down its length. He moaned in response. "Usako...je t'aime. Je t'aime." He whispered to her huskily in a deep French accent. {It means I love you.} She was sending him to his point, something he could not allow her to do. If she kept that up he would come and spill his seed all over her, and he didn't know how shocked she would be if she saw that, so he stopped her. He halted her hands and told her to place them around his shoulders. She complied slowly as she realized what was about to take place. He then parted her thighs as wide as he could and knelt between them. He could tell that she was a little tense and afraid of the pain that would precede the pleasure. "Just relax...relax Usako." He said to her huskily. "It'll hurt less if you relax." He replied. She tried to relax but she couldn't stop thinking about it, and when she thought about it, she absentmindedly tighten her channel. He didn't have to have his fingers in her to know that she was doing this. "I-I'm sorry...I'm-I'm trying." She cried softly. He lowered himself to her while being careful not to crush her small body and began to soothe her. "It's OK baby, it's OK, I love you just for trying." He whispered to her. "Je t'aime Usako." He said lovingly. "Usako, Usako, my love, my angel...my one and only, Usako." He began singing to her again. She slowly and unconsciously relaxed as he continued to sing to her. Then suddenly without warning she felt him fill her and she began to whimper in pain. Never in her life had she thought that it would hurt so much. She felt like something burning hot was ripping through her body as he slowly thrusted in and out of her. Each time he thrusted, he went deeper and deeper. To Usako, it felt as if the deeper he got, the more it hurt. She whimpered even as he began kissing her neck and singing to her at the same time. She bit down on her lip hard and curled her toes to keep herself from screaming from the pain she was feeling inside. She tried to relax, but it was hard to relax when it hurt so much. She kept on moving her legs and they slid on the sides of the bed. She could feel tears beginning to escape her eyes as he continued on, further and further into her. She was definitely not used to her channel being this wide, and she rationalized that that was probably why it hurt so much. Now she realized why he tried to open her legs so wide, to widen that passageway so it wouldn't hurt as much. She heard him moan her name, grunting all the while and suddenly realized what was going on within her. Deep in her heart she was fighting a war, one side wanted to get up from under him so that she wouldn't feel this pain, and the other was willing to give her innocence to him. She knew which side was winning. She wanted so badly to give him her all: her innocence, her soul, her love, her body. She loved him that much. "Darien." She cried as she could hold it in no longer. She thought as she closed her eyes. Darien tried to ignore her cries, so that he could take her innocence from her and then pleasure her, but it was becoming harder and harder as time passed on. He could almost feel the pain she was feeling and he couldn't take it anymore so he immediately stopped moving. What made that sudden movement very hard on the both of them was the fact that he was right at her barrier, as well as needing only one thrust to send himself over the edge. "Usako, are you" He began but she cut him off. "Dariennn..." She began, silencing him. She could tell he was on the verge of going over because his forehead was sweating, his hair was matted to the side of his face and he had a constrained look on his face, not to mention the fact that he was already shuddering slightly. She could feel his manhood pulsating within her. She slowly brought her fingers from one hand up to his lips and traced his lips with her fingertips. Even through the pain she felt of him still being in her she managed to prop herself on her elbows, and placed her hands on his back between his shoulder and neck. Her face was now extremely close to his own as she could feel his hot breath brush against her face; their lips were only centimeters apart when she suddenly whispered to him finishing her sentence. "Make me a part of you." "I'll do that and more." He replied huskily. Now it was her turn to surprise him. She immediately closed the gap between them and kissed him hungrily while at the same time thrusting upwards breaking the wall. Her actions caused him to moan and grunt deeply and loudly in their shared kiss, while spilling his seed deep within her. She screamed in pain into his mouth, tears escaping her eyes, as she dug her nails into his back so hard that small droplets of blood began to drip down it. The kiss they shared became a rugged one, rather than passionate, as Serena placed all the pain she was feeling in that kiss. When she stopped screaming she simply cried in pain. He wanted to release her, but she caught on to his thoughts and cried as she wrapped her legs around his waist tightly; she wanted him to continue. So he began thrusting into her once more slowly, promising himself that he would make this good for the both of them. With each new thrust she whimpered until she finally felt the pain die down some. Even though the pain was still there, she began to come with him, meeting each thrust with power, the power of her love for him. He changed his pace from a slow one from before, to a faster one. She began moaning his name, yet careful not to scream. As much as she wanted to, she couldn't let herself scream, it would be too much. She bit her lip and dug her hands into the back of his head and into his hair as he began to suckle her breast once more. A few moments later he came again and cried out her name. "Usako!" He screamed as he shuddered and spilled more of his seed deep within her. He then looked to his wife to see her lip trembling and knew at once that she was holding back, although he didn't know why. Nevertheless, he began pumping into her once more and coaxing her to scream his name. "Scream Usako...scream my name." He said huskily into her throat over and over again as he continued to pump into her. "Scream...Usako...Scream" Her bottom lip was quivering much more than before as she replied to him. "I-I c-can't." She whimpered back to him pleading him to stop, but he wouldn't stop, and he refused to stop. "Usako...it's OK...you can scream." He coaxed her as he began to suckle her breast once more to send her over the edge. Her lips quivered with the hot sensations she felt from him and she moaned. She knew she wouldn't be able to hold it in when she felt his teeth grazing her breast and tugging on it lightly all the way down to her nipple. "Your...y-your ears." She tried to warn him, but he was so caught up in pleasuring her that he didn't her a word she said. She finally removed her hands from the back of his neck and to his ears. He looked up to her in confusion as she bent back her head and let out a blood curdling scream that sounded as if it were not from human nature. "Darieeeeeennnnnnnnnnnnn!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" She screamed off of the top of her lungs as she shuddered powerfully. He held her in place and soothed her as she tried to calm down. She gasped for deep breaths and started wheezing as she looked at him with half closed eyes, her hair matted to her face from sweat. She was beginning to feel the pain of his seed being in her, but she wasn't going to tell him that. She knew that if he didn't understand she might end up hurting his feelings. "Iienna ove lienna ou yienna." She whispered in her native tongue as he removed himself from her, he might have continued, but he didn't think she could take any more after her powerful climax, so he lay next to her and pulled the covers over the both of them. He then held her in his arms as she lay her head on his chest and replied to her call. He didn't have to be Lunarian to know that she was professing her love to him once more. "Je t'aime aussi, Usako." He said softly to her as he noticed her starting to drift off into slumber. {Aussi means too or also.} @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ The next morning she awoke and he wasn't next to her. She sat up slowly, and looked to the left at the window to see the sun shinning through. She slowly got up from the bed, and that's when she felt it, in between her legs were so soar, and she felt as if all of her muscles had just been stretched. She thought. When she stood up her legs wobbled and shaked as if she was taking her first baby steps. She finally got control of her footing and pulled the covers with her and wrapped them around her body beneath her armpits. She then walked to the window and slowly looked outside to see the birds chirping. She opened the window and welcomed the warmth from the sun as it beat upon her face. She held the covers to her body as the chilly wind from winters end blew into the room and sat up on the windowsill; it was thick and wide enough for her to sit her whole body upon it. {The time of year is around the middle of March} She closed her eyes and put her hand out, and suddenly a bird landed on her hand. She opened her eyes and greeted the bird. She then began to converse with it. "Beautiful day isn't it?" She asked the bird and it chirped wildly. "No, I'm not from around here." She replied to the bird and it began to chirp again. "Thanks." She said and blushed. "I think you're beautiful too." Serena replied and it began chirping again. "That's wonderful!" She replied to the bird. "So how many are there?" She asked and it began to chirp again. "That's great!" She replied and the bird began to chirp again. "No, I can't." She responded and then the bird began to chirp again. "Because I'm not fertile right now, but when I have one I hope it's a boy with dark back hair and deep blue eyes, just like him." Serena said to the bird. "Three girls and two boys huh?" Serena said rhetorically. "How does it feel to be a mother?" She asked the bird, and it began to chirp again. Darien walked in at that moment from the bathroom to see his wife on the windowsill talking to a bird. "So where's the proud father?" Serena asked and the bird began to chirp again. "Oh I see, that's so sweet of him to watch the babies while you find food for them to eat. I wish I could have a child right now, how proud you must be." Serena replied and the bird began chirping wildly. "No food huh, oh no, the poor babies!" Serena exclaimed. "Tell you what. I'm not going to let you go back empty handed, so I'll give you a little something, and everyday, if you come back at this time and greet me, I'll have something for you to eat." Serena said as she lifted her free hand in the air. Darien watched in awe as a white ball of light appeared in her hand and then she spoke to the bird again. "Follow the light...wherever it lands, you'll find your food there, but this is just for you and your family...our little secret." Bird chirped it thanks loudly as she brought her lips to the white light and blew it away. Immediately the bird took off from her other hand and followed the light. She turned back to the room and Darien immediately greeted her lips as he kissed her deeply. He finally released her and she spoke softly as they were only centimeters apart. "Good morning." She said huskily. "Morning." He replied softly with a smile. "Flower for the lady." He said as he pulled a red rose from behind his back and presented it to her. She took the rose and noticed that there were no thorns on it. She dismissed the puzzlement in that and brought it to her nose. She closed her eyes and deeply inhaled its scent. "It's beautiful Darien, where'd you get it?" She asked. He faltered as to whether he should tell her his secret that he had never told anyone. He heard his mind scream. "I-I made it." Her eyes grew wide. "I'll explain later, right now our bath awaits, M'lady." He said as he helped her down from the sill. She blushed when she realized that he was completely naked. He laughed inwardly at her because all though he had just last night seen and explored every inch of her body...she was still shy about him seeing her. He led her to the bathroom where a bathtub filled with suds and water awaited them. "Where's Mina?" She asked softly. "She's downstairs having breakfast with Malachite." He began. "She asked about you too, and when I told her that you were still sleeping, she shrugged and told me, and I quote 'It figures...Moppet is never on time for breakfast...you think she'd want to be with that appetite of hers." He finished and she giggled. When they were in front of the tub he turned back to her. "You're not getting in with that thing on are you?" He asked sarcastically and she blushed. He bent down and kissed her while at the same time pulling the cover from around her body. When he released her she noticed the dark red stains between his legs. Curiosity overwhelmed her as she then decided to question him. "What's that?" She asked him innocently. "Blood." He answered her nonchalantly. "Oh." She replied and then noticed that it was between her legs as well. He stepped in the tub, sat down, and then pulled her in with him. She relaxed, lay the back of her head underneath his chin, and began to question him again but he stopped her before she could start knowing fully well what she was going to ask. "It's your blood...Usako." He finished. "Oh." She said softly embarrassed that she had spilled her blood on him. She quickly decided to change the subject. "What did you mean when you said that you made that rose?" She asked him softly. "I've never told anyone else this...but about four years ago, something weird started happening. Whenever I was angry or upset...a rose would just appear. I didn't understand, in fact I still don't understand...I just accepted. These roses started to appear whenever I felt any emotion, almost as if I was connected to them somehow. I learned however, how to make them appear when I wish. After that happened, things got even weirder as time progressed...I was alone one day...I was mad at my father for some reason or the other...but I noticed that-that I was glowing...glowing a dark midnight blue. I didn't want anyone to discover this about me...for fear of being shunned...so, whenever I was mad, or really stressed I would run away to be alone so that no one would notice this change in me." He finally finished and was shocked to see that she was chuckling softly. "What's so funny?" He said plainly, yet a little upset that he spilled his heart to her and she was laughing at him. "I'm sorry...I'm not laughing at you. I'm laughing at the moon kingdom researchers." "Excuse Me?" He asked totally clueless. "It's really funny...they always figured that the ninth senshi of earth was a girl." She laughed. "Ninth what?" He asked. "They also thought her powers were dormant." She laughed again. "This means Ami was right!" She exclaimed as she sat up. "I'm glad I backed her up, I wish I could tell her this now. She would be so shocked!" Serena giggled. "Ami who?" "Ami's one of my senshi, Sailor Mercury to be exact." She began as she turned to him. "Senshi?" "Let me explain." Serena replied in response to his questions. "There are currently eight senshi, each from the eight planets in the Silver Alliance besides the moon. They are the Princesses of their own respective planets, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto." She paused. "As the Supreme Princess, I have to have these seven sailor senshi protecting me. There are four inner senshi, and four outer senshi. The four inners are from the planets Mercury, Venus, Mars, and Jupiter. The outer senshi consist of Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto. The inner senshi protect me from danger within, and the outers protect me from danger without. I have complete precedence over the inner senshi, and some control over the outers. The princesses are also members of my court. Being that all the senshi have been women so far, they suspected the last to be a woman as well. Ami argued that you wouldn't be, she's the brain of the senshi. Rei agreed deeply with her, she's what you would call psychic, but those darn moon researchers refused that Ami and Rei were right because they were young and they were women." She paused again. "Each of the inner senshi has powers over elements. Mercury controls water, Jupiter controls lightning, Mars controls fire, and Venus is the warrior of love. Venus is also the self-righteous, over protective leader of my senshi. Sometimes I swear, she gets on my nerves, actually they all get on my nerves, always wanting to follow me wherever I go, like I'm some baby. I can't take care of myself, I'm an Eternal Soldier for petes sake, but noooooo...they must always make sure I'm all right." She finished as she got completely off the subject of explaining to Darien his situation. "If they're so protective of you...how come they're not here?" He asked forgetting about his situation as well. "Well for one...if I get really fed up, I can order them to leave me alone as their Princess and superior." She began. "That doesn't always work though, sometimes they make me feel sorry for them because they're just trying to do their job. They were trained from a young age to think that I was their first priority...which is how Minako ended up here in the first place." "Your cousin?" He asked. "Not just my cousin, but the self-righteous, over protective leader of the inner senshi." Serena replied throwing her hands in the air. Darien chuckled deeply at that; he always thought that Mina did seem to be overly protective of her and now he knew why. "It's kind of funny if you think about it...Malachite's the same way...I almost didn't let him come the first time he met you." When he said this Serena got a wicked gleam in her eye. "You thinkin' what I'm thinkin'?" She asked him. "Right up there with you Usako." He replied with a smile. She quickly got up from the tub and reached for his hand to pull him up with her. He groaned inwardly at seeing her naked body dripping with water and suds. His member immediately grew hard. "No wait, I have a better idea." He said as he pulled her back down. "What?" She asked him innocently while facing him. "This." He responded. Her eyes open wide in surprise as she was quickly impaled onto his hard member. @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ An hour later...downstairs "Why is the roof leaking all of a sudden?" Mina asked from her position across the table. A drop of water had splashed onto the table between them and disrupted them from their argument about who was a better fighter. "I have no idea." Malachite replied. "No matter...I still say I can wipe the floor with you any day." She continued on ignoring the water. He thought. She wasn't going to tell him she was a sailor senshi and was actually taught so that she could block his moves and many others. "Dream on...women can't fight." He retorted as they began arguing again. "Do you want to take this outside?" Mina asked. @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ At the same time upstairs... "You know this is all your fault; you should have to wipe this up all by yourself." Serena said playfully from her bent over position on the floor as she dried up the suds and water with one of the many towels in the bathroom. "Now you know you enjoyed yourself as much as I did." He accused with a smile. "Yeah maybe." She said and winked at him as she continued to dry up other spots. Darien was a little ways away from her drying up the floor with another towel, or at least that's what she thought he was doing. After they made love in the tub and spilled all of the water from the tub outside of it, she insisted that he get on the floor and help her dry it up, and then they could go downstairs for breakfast. She said that she refused to let the mess just sit there, and mumbled something about her mother, and biting her head off. To think that Darien's Guardians had told him he was an order freak. So here they were, drying the floor. Well, at least one of them had been drying the floor. Darien himself had been drying the same spot for a while now; in fact he had been rubbing it so much it was probably sparkling by now. If truth be told he hadn't been paying much attention to what he was doing, rather, he had been watching her. She was kneeling on the floor completely naked, and he was taking his fill and watching her breast move from side to side as she dried the floor. She was painting a pretty seductive picture for him, and he wished so much to be beneath her instead of the floor being beneath her. He thought. "Darien!!" She exclaimed snapping him out of his revere. "You've been wiping that same spot for hours now!" He winced when he realized that he had been caught. "It hasn't been an hour yet Usako." He replied sarcastically without thinking, but it was too late to take it back. She sat up and stopped wiping. "Do you want to do this all by yourself?" She asked him angrily. "Is her royal heighness upset?" He asked and once again wished that he had kept his mouth shut as he realized that now she was really upset. She stood up and threw her towel in front of him. "That's it! It's all yours." She said angrily as she stomped out of the bathroom and slammed the door behind her. "Hmph, if you wanted me to dry the floor you should've put some clothes on." He mumbled to himself as he got up, took several towels from the shelf, through them on the floor and began to dry the floor for real this time, using his feet instead of his hands. So what did you think? Cute ending huh? Yeah...I know I know...this isn't really the end. There is another chapter, but how did you like the way I ended this chapter? I guess this ending could be thrown in the same boat of classification as that chapter in PMYLMF when she finally gave him back his swim trunks, or that chapter in PMYLMF when she told him that she thought he was just a sourpuss. These kind of endings don't leave you with a question, but yet they still leave you with a feeling of unsettlement, as if it's still not resolved.
