Authors Note: The pairings are your usual shitennou/sailor scout ones and the obvious Usagi/Mamoru. There is a chapter pertaining to each couple and also Chibusa and Helios-couldn't fit it in the description. Hope you enjoy!

The Rose Garden
Makoto lay on a picnic rug under the shade of a large cherry blossom tree. She lay without moving, her eyes shut, enjoying the wonderful aromas wafting in the gentle spring breeze. Her curly light brown hair was spread out on the rug and was decorated by falling blossoms. Nephrite stared hungrily at the vision before him, drinking in the sight. His lover, soon to be wife, was beautiful. Makoto opened her eyes slowly and looked over at him. "Yes?" she asked playfully. Nephrite remained silent and drew closer. He knelt down and looked deep into her eyes, "I was just admiring your beauty." He whispered huskily. Makoto laughed, "Please, Nephrite. I am not beautiful. Have you even seen Serenity?"
Nephrite shook his head. How could she not understand? Her beautiful green eyes, framed by her light brown hair. The way her sea-green dress hugged her figure, ending right above her knees, exposing her long slender legs. She was, in his eyes, perfect. "Nephrite?" Makoto asked him curiously, he had been silent for a long time it seemed. "Beauty exists in all forms much like roses" he said, plucking a white and pink rose from the bushes behind them. "See this pink rose? It is no less beautiful than this white one. However they are not the same. Both beautiful but different."
Makoto grinned and pulled him on top of her, in a passionate kiss. When they finally broke apart, she giggled at the lopsided grin on Nephrite's face. "You talk too much" she said. Nephrite only grinned back and kissed her again.
Review if it pleases you.
