Have you ever wondered if the moon kingdom was always the ruler of the planets? There is someone who knows, and he plans to make things right, how they were supposed to be before the meddling moon kingdom appeared... and all he has to do is wake a certain pair of lovers.

-Current-

Makoto ran through her house making sure everything was spick and span. She also had to look her best, afterall it wasn't often that she was alone with her 'unrequited' love. Mamoru was always with Usagi and although Makoto knew what the future held for the three of them she still couldn't help, but feel what she did you the young Earth Prince. He was everything she had always dreamed of: Strong, kind, caring, handsome, and even after all these years he still made her heart go pitter patter.

Makoto had just got done pulling out a fresh batch of chocolate chip cookies from the oven when her doorbell rang. She quickly set the cookie sheet on the oven and removed her apron as she ran towards the door. She quickly looked at her appearance in the mirror by the front door before she opened it to reveal a slightly older, raven haired man whose blue eyes shined with happiness as he looked upon her. Makoto caught her breath in her throat, suddenly too nervous to say anything.

"Mako-chan, I brought some wine, for the snacks that I know you made." He chuckled as he held up to light pink wine to show her. "I wanted to repay the favor, it is expecially good with sweets."

Makoto quickly snapped out of her trance when Mamoru mentioned sweets. "Mamo-chan how do you know me so well?" She giggled as she moved so he could enter her apartment. "I made your favorite chocolate chip cookies with just a dab of cinnimon." She closed the door once he was fully in. As she stood behind him she took in deep breaths trying her hardest to fill her lungs with only the scent of him, after all, she smiled, it wasn't often she had him to herself.

"Mako-chan your the best! Usagi's sweets never turn out nearly good as yours." He walked into her kitchen, usually he would ask to go into the kitchen and have a cookie, but perhaps it was because he felt so much at home here. As he reached the stove he set the wine down on the counter right by him and picked up the largest of the cookies on the sheet and begin to nibble on the hot sweet. "Mmm. Mako-chan I can taste all of your hard work in this cookie, it makes it that much better."

Meanwhile

"Minako! Give it baaaaack!"

Minako flinched at the screech Usagi made when she was whining. Still she kept running from the odango head holding the girls lunch. "Its not fair that you get to have Makoto's famous lunch all to yourself, odango head!" She giggled as the other girl struggled to catch up to her. It didn't matter that Usagi was the moon princess, Minako could still out run her.

"Minako!" Usagi cried, "Mako-chan made it for me though!" She stopped running, about to kill over. Usagi really didn't like to run. She sighed and turned to look at her new school. It wasn't as grand as the collage Mamaru and Ami went to... but she knew it was because they were so smart, so she wasn't sad about having to go to a community college with Mina and Raye. The thing she hated was having to be a four hour drive from Mamaru, she barely got to see him anymore.

"Usagi... I am sure he is thinking about you all the time too, after all... you two are destined to be together." Minako now stood in front of the poor girl holding her as Usagi cried on her shoulder.

Perhaps she has had too much to drink, thought Mamoru as he looked at the pretty brunette sitting across from him with her pink tinted cheeks. He thought nothing of the amount he drank as he was much more used to the effects of alcohol, being 25 and all. Makoto had just turned 21 not too long ago.

Mamoru began to think back on the day of the girls graduation. He was really excited for everyone, but he was going to be lonely, because the college they all applied to was four hours away from him. Who would he be with all day... himself? He watched as Usagi bounded over to him all excited as she showed him the letter she had recieved from the collage, it said that she was accepted and all this other nonsence about the school. Although he was frowning on the inside he presented a brillant smile for his princess.

Then one by one the rest of the senshi presented their letters from the same school. Minako was squelling with happiness while Rei just nodded in approval. Ami and Makoto looked unusally nervous, but the nervous blush on Makoto suited her, pink really was her color. Finally when Rei noticed that the two senshi had not presented their letters. "Eh? Mako-chan, Ami-chan... where are your letters?"

If even possible the two turned even more pink. Ami finally spoke up, deciding now was the best time to get it over with I suspect. She held up her letter to show everyone along with Makoto. Everyone gasped, it was an acceptance letter all right, but with glee Mamaru noticed that the two letters were from his collage. "Well Mako-chan got a scholarship..." Ami blushed, " and I knew she really wanted to go and I didn't want her to be on her own so I... applied for this school also."

"Ami!" Usagi squealed. "Why didn't you two tell us! We would have all applied then..." The rest of the senshi didn't say anything, because they all knew that they could never score high enough to get into such a prestigeous collage. It was a wonder Makoto had even got a scholarship.

Quite the uncomfortable silence fell over the group at that time.

Mamoru snapped back to the present as he stared at Makoto across the table from him. She had that pink blush that suited no one better than her. She was right there... so touchable...

Just then the door creaked open to an overly tired Ami. Ami looked so different from when she was in high school, she had let her hair grow out to her shoulders and often put it up into a pony-tail. Makoto often played with Ami's hair as Ami really didn't know how to style long hair which was very different from short hair.

"Oh, Mamoru-chan. I didn't exspect to see you here." Ami's usually plesent smile was just a little bit strained as she quickly gathered the situation.

"Sorry Ami-chan. I was bored and wanted company, I hope its no trouble that I am here." His smile didn't reach his eyes. The relationship between Mamoru and Ami had become strained because without either realizing it they both wanted the same thing, and said thing was pretty red in the face right now. "I think Mako-chan has had too much to drink, perhaps I should call it a night anyway."

"I'm fine Mamoru." Makoto smiled as she stood up and started clearing the table of the plates and glasses they had used. "I am just getting a little tired I suppose." She sighed as she set the dishes in the dishwasher. She might of had too much to drink but she was still aware enough to feel two pairs of eyes on her back.

"Mako-chan let me put my books away and I will help you to bed."

"I'm fine Ami, I promise."

Mamoru stood from the table and finished setting up the dishwasher for Makoto and then made his way to the door. "I should get going then. You two get some sleep and I will see you tommorrow at school."

Ami and Mamoru smiled at each other but as soon as he was out of the door the frowns instantly appeared.

'Stupid Mamoru... trying to get Mako-chan in OUR appartment while I was away...'

'Stupid Ami... coming home way to early.'

Author's notes: I left this chapter mostly alone, while I didn't like it when I originally wrote it, it has grown on me. All I did was fix misspellings and grammer errors. Hopefully I got them all. Thank you! R&R
