A four-year-old Small Lady stood in front of her parent's door. Puppy dog eyes in place, and pout for the extra bonus points. Looking down upon the pink haired Princess, was a King sleep evident in his eyes.

"Hi Papa!" Small Lady cheered.

Endymion's brow creased. He adored his little baby with all his heart but lately they were having problems getting Small Lady to sleep. This had been a nightly routine for the past month.

"Small Lady, Mama and I put you to bed already. What are you doing up?" Moving past the King her little feet pattered into the room of the King and Queen.

"I'm not tired anymore Papa. I want to play with you and mama." She looked at him brightly. The King sighed pinching the bridge of his nose. He prayed for patience.

"It's not play time anymore Small Lady. Mama and I have a very busy day tomorrow. Little Princess' have to have their sleep." It was then her bottom lip began to wiggle.

'Uh-oh.'

"But there's a monster under my bed Papa!" The little Princess exclaimed.

"A monster?"

"Yes, he's giant and hairy! He has big teeth and makes a scary face like this." Endymion had to smoother a laugh as Small Lady mimicked the monsters scary face.

"Wow that is pretty scary."

"Uh huh." She nodded her little head.

"Well no monster is going to mess with my little Princess so let's go scare this monster off!" The King declared scooping Small Lady up he started charging off to her room.

"Wait Papa!"

Here we go…

"Maybe I can just sleep with you and mama tonight." She looked up with him with those big red eyes.

Sighing, the King gave in. "Ok, but just for tonight."

He turned around and headed back to their room. Upon entering, Small Lady jumped down from his grasp and hurried over to her mama.

"Mama!" She tugged at the covers at the bed to get the Queen's attention.

Serenity was already awake. As soon as Endymion had gotten out of bed, she knew Small Lady would have some sort of trick up her sleeve to stay awake or come sleep with them. This had been a routine for the past few weeks. It was always something every night. Her daughter however, was not without her charms and always somehow ended up in their bed. Not that the Queen minded it really. Her baby was already growing up so fast.

"Well hello angel, what are you doing in here?" Serenity reached down plucking up the pink haired cherub.

"There was a monster in my room. So papa said I cans sleep with you tonight!"

Serenity made eye contact with Endymion. Humor was in his gaze. "He did?"

The mini Serenity nodded her head excitedly. Crawling in beside her mama and snuggling in her warmth, Small Lady smiled happily. Endymion finally crawled into bed. Sighing, he turned out the light. Hopefully tonight they could get some sleep. Closing his eyes, he finally started drifting off to sleep.

THUMP THUMP THUMP THUMP.

"Small Lady stop taping on the head board." He chided.

"Ok, Papa." He sighed closing his eyes.

SCRATCH SCRATCH SCRATCH.

"Small Lady! That's enough!"

Sighing the Queen turned back on the light.

"Small Lady its bed time and Papa and I are really tired."

Lady pouted. "Mama I'm not sleepy."

"Well maybe Papa and I can tell you a bed time story." The little ones eyes rounded. She loved stories told by mama and papa. They were always the best. Especially Sailor Moon stories.

"Maybe tonight we can tell you the story of how Mama and Papa fell in love." Endymion looked at her sharply. Serenity never told Small Lady that story before. Sure, they told her about the Moon Princess and Earth Princess (not that she knew that was them) but they never told her about Darien and Serena falling in love.

"Really?" The little one said in awe. A story about Mama and Papa falling in love? This was going to be the best.

"Did someone say a story about you guys falling in love?" The door burst open!

"Mina! What are you doing in here?" Screeched the queen.

"I saw the light was on and I may have over heard you guys talking. If you're telling a story about how you guys fell in love you're going to need my help!"

"How did you overhear the door was shut?" Endymion asked.

"Ok, I was listening very closely! Anyways, are you ready for the story munchkin?"

"You know the story too Auntie Mina?" The little one asked.

"Of course darling! I am the senshi of love I practically got these two together."

"You did no-"

"Once upon time, there was a small arcade…" Mina began.
