The droid had been particularly nasty. The Senshi were worn out from the repeated night attacks, and barely managed to defeat it.
Tuxedo Kamen had shown up but was quite harsh to Sailor Moon. He criticized just about everything that she had done that night. The Senshi looked at him with their mouths agape through his tirade. Sailor Moon just ignored him, until she finally had enough of his mouth.
"Are you quite finished, Tuxedo Kamen-sama? In case you haven't noticed, it is 1 in the morning and I for one would like to get to bed." Sailor Moon growled sarcastically.
Tuxedo Kamen stopped in mid rant and looked stunned. Not wanting to say anything more, he walked away from the now silent and stunned Senshi.
Sailor Moon touched her brooch and became Usagi again. The other girls followed suit.
As they walked from the park, the girls just stared at Usagi.
What was not seen by any of them was that Chibi-Usa was hiding in the bushes and heard the entire scolding that Tuxedo Kamen had given Sailor Moon. Chibi-Usa took off and did not hear Usagi stand up to Mamoru.
Chibi-Usa ran home crying, even though she might not like the idea of Usagi and Mamoru together, she still did not like the way he was treating her. She went up to her room and sobbed quietly to Luna P.
"I don't understand Luna P. I thought that Mamoru loved Usagi, but he treats her so meanly. In fact from what I have heard from the other girls, he only started treating her like this since I came. I feel like it's my fault that he no longer loves her. I just wish that I could find Mama and Pappa here in this time, I miss them so much." Chibi-Usa cried.
"Lady, Lady, don't cry, don't cry, King-Queen close" Luna P repeated, bouncing in front of Chibi-Usa.
"I wish you were right, Luna P," Chibi-Usa continued to cry holding onto her ball.* * * * * * * *
Mamoru poured himself into his apartment and collapsed on the couch.
"I don't know how long I can keep this charade up." Mamoru mumbled, rubbing his temples.
Finally, he fell back against the arm of the couch, willing a peaceful sleep that he knew would not come.* * * * * * * *
Meanwhile at the Time Gate
'Alright, this has gone on long enough. Small Lady now blames herself for this.' Sailor Pluto thought as she watched the portal to the past.
Sailor Pluto went to the secret entrance to the Crystal Palace, to seek out King Endymion.
It did not take long for her to find him roaming the silent halls.
"Sailor Pluto, what are you doing here?" King Endymion questioned.
"I have come on most urgent matters. It has to do with your 'dreams' to Mamoru and Small Lady." Sailor Pluto explained.
"What does the one have to do with the other?" Endymion questioned.
"Plenty. You sending those 'dreams' to Mamoru is causing confusion and is affecting Small Lady." Sailor Pluto pointed out.
"What?" Endymion exclaimed.
"Small Lady is witnessing the behavior of Mamoru in the past, as he tries to convince Usagi that he does not love her. Small Lady is blaming herself for this. The Senshi have apparently mentioned that everything was fine with the Prince and Princess until she came." Sailor Pluto explained to the stunned King.
"Still no matter, the two must not marry or be together." King Endymion stated flatly.
"Do you honestly think that he is able to protect her if he is always reminding himself that he cannot love her. Do you think that this will strengthen Usagi or her love for him? She second guesses everything she does, and she is questioning if Mamoru ever loved her! How do you think that will affect Serenity's love for YOU?" Sailor Pluto lectured.
The last statement got King Endymion's attention.
"What do you mean?" Endymion, shakily asked.
"Think about it, you have your memories from that time, Yes? Well so does Serenity. The Time Stream will change as the events in the past are being changed. Did you not think of how this would affect Serenity? Just because she is asleep inside of the crystal shell does not mean she is dead. So her memories would be changing also." Sailor Pluto explained.
The King was stunned. He had never thought of the ramifications of his actions. He was only thinking of himself, trying to cope with the separation from Serenity.
"Just consider what I have said." Sailor Pluto added before disappearing.* * * * * * * *
Mamoru was tossing back and forth having the same horrible dream that he always did. Until everything stopped, like someone had pushed 'pause'.
Mamoru looked around and was met with shining garnet eyes.
"Be not afraid, my prince." The woman bowed.
"Who, who are you? Are you the one telling me that this will come to pass?" Mamoru questioned.
"My name is Sailor Pluto, and no, I am not sending these messages to you. The one who is... he is not thinking with a clear mind." Sailor Pluto explained to Mamoru.
"What is the nature of your visit, Sailor Pluto?" Mamoru questioned.
"I have come to employ you to go to the Princess. She needs you." Sailor Pluto pleaded.
"But, what of these?" Mamoru questioned, motioning to the scenes around him.
"As I have stated, he is not thinking clearly and is in emotional anguish. I have brought to his attention just what his actions are doing and he is seeing the error in his ways." Sailor Pluto explained.
"I don't think that she will have me." Mamoru expressed sadly.
"Do you really believe that?" Sailor Pluto questioned.
"How can I possibly make up for what I have done and said?" Mamoru asked quietly.
"Serenity will forgive all. Go to her and remind her of your deeply shared love. It is very important that you do, or these events that you see quite possibly could come to pass, or worse." Sailor Pluto explained quietly.
"What of the dreams that show me what will happen if we are together?" Mamoru exclaimed.
"Endymion, some of these events cannot be avoided. But, even though the events to come cannot be stopped or changed, your love for each other will help you two through it." Sailor Pluto explained.
"I see. Sailor Pluto, where are you from?" Mamoru asked.
"Prince, I exist out of time. You and I will meet at a later time. Take care of Serenity and the Small Lady. But mention nothing of this meeting to any of the senshi." Sailor Pluto bowed about to leave.
"Wait! Who is this Small Lady? Do you mean Chibi-Usa?" Mamoru questioned.
"Yes, she is a very special little girl, take care of them both." Sailor Pluto whispered and disappeared.
Mamoru awoke and sat up and thought about Sailor Pluto's words, debating if he should go to Usagi or not.
'Go to her. She needs your love, Endymion' Sailor Pluto's words echoed in his head.
Without another thought, he was on his feet and heading out the balcony door.* * * * * * * *
Usagi was tossing and turning in her sleep, then she grew still.
"Princess, I know you have questions. All will be explained in time. When you awaken, Prince Endymion will be with you and will explain things to you. Please listen to what he has to say and keep an open heart and mind." A quite voice seeped into Usagi's mind.
'But he says that he does not love me. How can I...' Usagi thought to the voice.
"Search your heart, Serenity..." the voice trailed off, as Usagi slowly awakened to something soft caressing her cheek.
Usagi opened her eyes, half expecting Luna to be the reason, but it was Mamoru.
Mamoru, or rather Tuxedo Kamen, stood beside Usagi's bed, his hand still on her cheek.
"Mam..." Usagi began but was silenced with a gloved finger on her lips.
"Shh love" Mamoru whispered, as he walked to her bedroom door and locked it.
"But I thought..." Usagi started.
"No, I have been a fool, and have been fooled." Mamoru explained removing his mask and top hat.
Taking her hands into his, he gently kissed each perfect finger, as he knelt beside her bed.
Usagi sat up and clutched to sheet to her chest.
"Please forgive me, Usagi. I..." Mamoru pleaded, bowing his head to her lap.
Usagi ran her hands through his hair and cooed soft loving words to him.
"I... I love you so much. What I was being told..." Mamoru began to explain.
"I know you love me. There will be time for talking in the morning." Usagi whispered, bringing Mamoru's lips to meet hers.
The love exchanged in the kiss squelched any doubts that either had of each's love.
When they parted from the kiss, the love in both's eyes was unbelievable.
"Please..." Usagi cooed as Mamoru lay down beside her.
"Usako..." Mamoru purred as he captured her lips.
Usagi felt like she was in heaven. The feeling was akin to how she felt when she freed him from the Dark Kingdom.
Usagi broke the kiss briefly to touch her brooch. The light engulfed Usagi and protected her from conception.
Usagi touched her chest and her clothes disappeared, she did the same to Mamoru.
Mamoru climbed beneath the blankets and took Usagi into his arms.
"I promise you this, Usako. I will not be fooled again and it will not happen again." Mamoru vowed with a kiss.
"I... we'll talk in the morning." Usagi whispered, as Mamoru captured her lips again.
Mamoru's hand traveled to Usagi's breast and his thumb caressed the rapidly hardening bud.
Usagi gasped into the kiss as Mamoru caressed her hard nipple.
Mamoru began a slow trail of kisses down Usagi's throat, stopping to kiss along her collar bone.
He kissed the cleft between Usagi's heaving breasts, then suckled each nipple tenderly.
"Ooh Mamo-chan." Usagi gasped as Mamoru's finger slid into her womanhood and began stroking her swollen jewel.
Usagi ran her hands through Mamoru's hair as he continued to suckle each of her nipples.
Sensing that she was nearing her peak Mamoru stopped and pulled his hand away.
Confused Usagi looked down at him with a million questions in her eyes.
"I want us to peak together my love." Mamoru whispered as he captured her lips once more.
Mamoru took and rolled them over so that Usagi was now atop him. Mamoru could see that Usagi was unsure of herself.
"You set the pace my love, and I will follow." Mamoru coaxed.
Usagi smiled and slid carefully back so that Mamoru's manhood was just at her entrance.
Mamoru tensed up his legs in anticipation of the snugness of the union that he knew always came.
Inch by maddening inch, Usagi eased herself onto Mamoru's manhood, amazed at how they were perfectly made for each other.
Slowly they both fell into an easy rhythm, Mamoru meeting each of Usagi's thrusts. They matched perfectly in every stroke.
Soon Usagi's thrusts were becoming quicker and quicker. Mamoru knew she would be peaking soon and could feel himself approaching also.
In a blink of an eye Usagi's inner muscles tightened on Mamoru's manhood and the crescent moon on her forehead erupted into a silver golden light as she climaxed. The force of Usagi's release dragged Mamoru over into his own, and he could have sworn that he heard a chorus rejoicing in his head over their union.
Exhaustion soon overtook them and Usagi rested her head on Mamoru's sweat drenched, heaving chest.
"I love you forever and always, Serenity." Mamoru whispered into her hair.
"As do I, Endymion." Usagi whispered, drifting off to a blissful sleep.
"Usako, I promise it shall not happen again my love." Mamoru whispered to the now sleeping goddess on his chest.
Slowly Mamoru eased Usagi off of him and went to unlock the door. He knew that if her mother were to try the door that she would become worried that it was locked.
Mamoru willed his clothing to return and powered down from Tuxedo Kamen. He then removed everything but his boxers and decided that he would sleep a bit holding Usagi and then make a hasty retreat before everyone was awake.
Now clad only in his boxers, Mamoru slid beside Usagi and wrapped his arms around her and soon fell asleep.* * * * * * * *
Unknown to the couple, Ikuko had awoken and was walking past Usagi's door when a burst of light came under the door. Thinking that she was seeing things she shook her head but another flash happened. She waited a moment and slowly opened Usagi's bedroom door.
The sight that greeted her surprised her but did not upset her. There in Usagi's bed was Mamoru asleep with Usagi cuddled into his chest. A soft smile was on Usagi's lips as she slept.
Ikuko smiled and something within her told her that this is how it should be and not to be upset.
Ikuko closed the door and decided to let them sleep, for she could feel the extreme love radiating from the couple.
'Since Shingo is at Takashi's for the weekend, I think that Kenji and I will be on an outing in the morning. I will leave a note for Usagi that she just needs to look after Chibi-Usa. It will be ok because Chibi-Usa never gets up until 10 in the morning and I'm sure that things will be taken care of.' Ikuko thought to herself as she returned to her bedroom.
'I think that the three of them should go on a retreat to the hot springs. I must suggest that to Usagi or call Mamoru in regards to that.' Ikuko thought as she lay down beside her husband.* * * * * * * *
Sailor Pluto smiled as she looked in on the couple and smiled at herself for planting the thoughts into Ikuko's mind.
'I'm just lucky that it was Ikuko that was up and not Kenji. That might have been a stiff order.' Sailor Pluto thought to herself as she closed the portal.* * * * * * * *
Chibi-Usa awoke early in the morning and was lonely.
"I'll go sleep with Usagi, that always makes me feel better. Sound good, Luna P?" Chibi-Usa asked the floating ball.
"Yes, Yes, King, Queen, close, close" the ball bounced.
Chibi-Usa looked at the ball strangely and hurried down to Usagi's room.
Chibi-Usa quietly opened the door and gasped.
At some point in the night, her clothes returned and Usagi and was now facing her bedroom door. The effects of the crystal had not worn off yet and the crescent moon shone brightly on Usagi's forehead.
'Mamma, Pappa' Chibi-Usa thought and looked at Luna P.
"King, Queen, Mamma, Pappa" the ball bounced in the hallway.
Chibi-Usa looked back to the sleeping couple and noticed that they slept the same way that her mother and father did.
Chibi-Usa smiled and crawled into bed beside Usagi.
Instinctively, Usagi put her arm around Chibi-Usa and mumbled, "Shh Small Lady all is well."
'Mamma. She always tells me that when I have a bad dream or when there is a storm.' Chibi-Usa thought as she fell into a contented sleep.* * * * * * * *
Note: This was one of those stories that just needed to be written. I am working on two others and was kind of in a rut. I never really agreed with the 'break up' part of R, so I just didn't address it. I think that this is a much more romantic way for Usagi and Mamoru to overcome the nightmares.
Thanks always to my wonderful husband, for without his inspiration my stories would not be the same.
As always Sailor Moon and related characters belong to others, I merely borrow them from time to time to expand on the love and romance between them.
