Disclaimer: I do not own sailor moon, but i do own the characters i made up and the plot.

Darien walked around his Father's room taking in the details; there was a large bed up against the left side of the room and a writing desk off to the right when near the main entrance. The room also contained two different rugs of various shape and size; one was in front of the main entrance and the other at the foot of the bed. The dresser that the maid had hung up his clothing in was located in a top left corner and the doors were slightly ajar. There where two other doors, one of which Darien assumed was to the bathroom and the other was draped in heavy velvet curtains that were the same color as the bed cover and had no idea as to where they led. Overall the room was fashioned with simple yet elegant furnishings and he could see that this very much matched his father's tastes when it came to décor. This room was marginally bigger than his at his own Palace which should have made him feel ill at ease but the knowledge that this room really belonged to his father comforted him. He looked around and decided that it was indeed a little lonely with out the company of the talkative old maid.

Then an idea struck him, perhaps the Princess has been found and has returned to her rooms. Deciding upon this he took off his traveling cloak and set it on a chair next to the writing desk, and noticed a full length mirror located on the right side of the room. He walked over and saw a young man about 5"10', with midnight black hair, and cerulean blue eyes. He looked over his current appearance taking note of how tired his eyes looked, and realized that he was actually quite weary. He put that aside and told himself that he mustn't let that impinge on his manners.

Manners to him went beyond the simple "please"s and "thank you"s, it was how you held yourself, your poise, and the way you spoke and most importantly making sure you remembered who you were speaking to. After reaching that conclusion, he mentally ran over the things he would say and how things would play out. He went over it again and again till he had it memorized.

Checking himself in the mirror one last time, he took a deep breath and wondered why he felt nervous. Abruptly he shoved all nervousness and other stray thoughts to the back of his head and left only the thoughts of what he was to say floating in his conscience.

Darien strode out of his room, head held high and across the hall to the Princess' unmistakable doors; once again he was reminded of the crescent moon and the Queen's forehead. Thinking to himself that it did nothing to mire her beauty but quiet the contrary, it added to it. If he recalled correctly, the Princess' name was Serenity, man, I'm so horrible with names, but I'm fairly sure I'm right on this one. I wonder what she'll look like, probably her mother. Her mother had long, long lilac tinged silver hair that quit nearly touched the floor; it was swept up into two pony tails with two buns atop her head for each pony tail. Her face was delicate and she had a faire complexion that was accented by her stunning eyes. She was taller then most the woman on Earth but in a beautiful way; taking all this into account he began to wonder if anything had happened between his father and her. She was a very tempting woman but he shook that thought from his head and didn't dwell on it.

He found himself hoping that her daughter shared the same traits, from a melodious voice to a curvy body and stunning eyes. Then, realizing that he had been standing in front of her door for several minutes, he looked around to make sure that no one had seen him dallying in the hallway. Seeing no one else around, much to his relief, he stepped forward while taking a deep breath and knocked at what he thought would be an appropriate volume. There was no reply, so again he knocked, but this time a little louder; after waiting for a moment longer than last time he was about to turn around and head back to his room when he heard the door being opened.

Swallowing down his nervous feeling again, he blinked in surprise when he saw that it was just a maid opening the door. The maid curtsied deeply allowing Darien to get a good glimpse into the sitting room of the Moon Princess. It was stunning and for a moment he didn't notice that the maid was speaking to him, "I'm sorry but the Princess isn't here right now, if you could please come back later I'm sure her Majesty would be willing to have an audience with you." And with that she shut the door before Darien could say anything, leaving him in the still corridor.

Knowing that there was nothing else he could do, he turned around and went back to his rooms where he determined that it was time to get some food and then be off to bed. Looking for the rope with the bell he pulled it gently and decided that there was nothing to do but wait. He wanted to get comfortable and settled in for the night so he sat down on the edge of his bed bouncing slightly as he sank down into the plush covers and mattress. Taking off his shirt and boots, he then folded his shirt and put his boots and shirt on the chest at the foot of his bed. With this done he concluded that he would explore his room a little more; he walked over to the door he thought was the bathroom only to have his suspicions confirmed. It was fairly sized and not extravagant, just the kind his father would like; it contained a small wash sink with a small mirror hanging on the wall above it, and in the corner up against the wall was a large claw footed bath tub big enough for him to bathe comfortably.

After investigating his bathroom completely enough to satisfy himself he decided that it was time to find out where the other led; pulling back the heavy velvet curtained doors, he was not surprised to find that they revealed a large balcony. He gasped as he opened the doors and saw the view and felt the warm evening air; the view consisted of a sea of twinkling lights form the Moon Kingdom below and a glimpse of a dimly lit garden straight below him. This was spectacular but what really caused him to loose his breath was the Earth, bright and shining while it hung in the sky; the mixture of blues, green and the white swirls caused him to fall in love with his home all over again. The beauty of it made him long to walk on the lush green laws and sail the open blue seas; moving his gaze to the warm glowing city before him he felt a sense of tranquility over take him.

Suddenly a sound like clattering dishes broke through his peaceful moment and gave a small jump of surprise. He turned around to see a very beautiful young setting down a tray of food; she had long flowing blonde hair that was a long as the Queen's and her hair do was almost the same, except for she only had one bun a top each pony tail. Along with her hour glass-figure, and elegant attire, she had pale and creamy skin, with bright blue eyes and ripe lips. Darien knew she could only be Queen Serelaina's daughter, Princess Serenity. She looked to be four years younger than him and he guessed she was about 5"4' in height. Darien swallowed hard and had to stop himself from openly gaping at her; he thought back to his previous realization as to how beautiful his home planet was and knew that even that paled in comparison to her shining beauty.

She jumped a little as she heard him re-entered the room and backed away from the desk where she had set down his food. She held her chin high and stood straight before she dropped into a low curtsy when he approached her. He bowed in return and noticed he was standing there naked to the waist on front of royalty; looking at her he also saw that she was blushing furiously. Trying to fix this awkward moment, he walked over to the chest where his shirt was folded and put it on.

He turned around to see that she had already taken a seat near the desk, so he opened his mouth to speak but she beat him to it saying. "I apologize for seemingly just walking into your room; I knocked twice without receiving an answer." Well I really don't mind when it's someone so gorgeous... he thought to himself.

She continued on but this time through clenched teeth, "My mother has asked that I deliver you your dinner and keep you company while you eat, since I….. Missed, you welcome." She looked down at her skirts after she was done talking and began plucking at minute pieces of dust. At this time a strong whiff of the food on the tray reached Darien's nose and his stomach gave such a loud rumble that he was sure Serenity had heard.

Pulling back the cloth that covered the tray to keep the heat, he was surprised at the vast array and variety of food on the tray in front of him. "Thank you," he said looking up at her, and trying to dissipate the heavy feeling of awkwardness in the air he added, "And by the way, nice buns." Then, from the immediate dangerous look that appeared in her bright blue eyes, he knew that this wasn't the best way to impress her.

He blinked, and little did he realize that he had stopped chewing as well, wait, since when was I trying to impress her?! "Is every thing alright with your food?" she asked haughtily, "I can order you different food or have them reheat this if that is what you want." He looked down at his plate to hide the heated feeling on his face and finished his bite. Great, now she must think I'm a complete simpleton, if not an idiot… "Ah no, that won't be needed! Everything is absolutely delicious, and the temperature is wonderful." Thinking that he should say more he added, "I.. um... that is, Thank you very much for taking time to bring it up to me, and if you wish to return to your rooms I won't be offended."

The dangerous look in her eyes intensified, making him wonder if he had offended some custom of the Moon People. At this point she stood up as if to go towards the doors, but instead she turned and went over to the still open doors of his balcony. He felt his mouth go dry as he followed her swaying walk across the room, she stopped and her perfect body was silhouetted against the glowing earth, and he found himself very glad she had decided to stay.

Abruptly she turned to face him, hair and dress twirling around her. "What is it like?" She asked, and if Darien was correct, he believed he detected a slight hint of wistfulness in her tone, "Please tell me, I've never been to the Earth." Startled by this question, he wasn't able to answer immediately but as the memories of his home over took him he tried to describe what felt.

"Warm," he began, "Not the weather, but it's more like the feeling you get when you with family and friends. I have so many feelings I get when I see my planet, pride, joy, hope…There are so many places that I find myself content to just be around, and the places I love give me the knowledge that this is my planet.. this is my Home."

When he has finished he realized that he had spaced out and looked up to see if Princess Serenity had noticed. To his surprise he saw that she had turned back around and was gazing at the beautiful blue, green orb in the sky; she didn't appear to have noticed that he had stopped talking either. Darien's eyes gazed down her body taking in her curves and slenderness; he took in her appearance from her hair that looked like spun gold that fell in waterfalls from her head and her skin that was white and glowed in the light from outside. He knew he should stop looking, she could turn around at any moment, but he couldn't, his will power was non-existent at that moment. Knowing that he needed to say something to end the silence he said, "If I may ask, why were you interested?"

After waiting for several moments, he found that he had to repeat the question before she answered him. "It's just that my grandmother.. I mean I've heard stories about your planet and I became curious." She replied; at this point she turned to face him, and the look in her eyes told him that it was a subject best not to probe further. He looked down at his tray to see what he was to eat next and blinked several times in surprise, I must've been much hungrier than I had anticipated. Princess Serenity had also taken note of this and decided it was time to leave.

This is the end of Darien's veiw point for a couple chapters, next is Serenity's pov.. so tell me what you think! Click the Little Button and REVIEW pretty please! thanx-
