AN: I didn't really get too much feedback on the first part but maybe I can reel you guys in with a bit of action.

I just want to make it clear that this story will be in Haruka and Darien's POV, I forgot to mention it before. I also want to make note that for my story Serena is 16 and Darien is 18, not that it will come up at all but I just wanted to make it clear. Serena is in High School or whatever the equivalent is in Japan and Darien is in College(or the Japanese equivalent) with Haruka and Michiru.

Sorry guys, I'm just a stinking American with no clue how the education system works in Japan, but I do know that they have exams and often. I watched Inuyasha so I've got that figured out at least. Lol.

Reviews are vehemently encouraged.

Haruka- part 2

The next morning, Michiru has her teaching job for the kindergarten art class, which means that I'll be on my own until late afternoon.

She kisses my forehead as she leaves, I wait until I hear the front door click before I turn over and try to get a few more hours of sleep.

I only sleep for two hours but as I do I dream of her. I dream of Usaig, of kissing and making love to her, and then I dream of being with both of them together. I wake up in a sweat, my hair sticking to my face and neck.

After a long, cold shower and some breakfast, I'm out the door and ready to face the day. I ride my bike past the kindergarten and drop off Michiru's lunch, she prefers to paint during her break so I usually bring her something and force her to eat.

I study her latest masterpiece as she works on her lunch, I can feel her eyes on me, trying to read my mind but I don't take my eyes off the painting.

"Tokyo at twilight, it's very beautiful Michiru. What's this blank space in the middle though?"

"It's not quite finished yet, I keep sensing a dark force over the city but I don't know what it is."

"A new enemy? Do you think we'll be needed?" I try not to sound hopeful.

"This force feels old but I don't think it's a battle we are meant to fight, I just wish I could see what it is."

"How will you finish it then?" I finally turn to look at her, she's finished her food already.

"Hmmmm, well I did hear that the Circus was in town. Maybe it'll cheer up the painting." She stands next to me and smiles.

"Looks like your break is over, I better go."

"What will you do Haruka?" we both know what she is referring too though I wish she hadn't brought it up.

I sigh heavily, " I don't know yet but I'll pick you up later alright?"

Michiru nods, "Later then."

I walk out of the building and hop on my motorcycle, I'll have to change it for my car so I can pick up Michiru but for now I just want to enjoy the speed.

Somehow I end up at the park near Rini's school and I already know that Usagi is there waiting, but not for me. I think we must come equipped with some kind of lojack thing because no matter where she is, us Scouts always seem to find her right when we need to.

Reluctantly, I climb off my bike and start walking, my feet know where to go even if I don't. That park isn't very crowded today, just the usual mothers pushing stollers, joggers and children who are still too young for school.

Usagi is sitting on a park bench near the pond, she's wearing one of her fitted dresses that barely goes past her thighs. She doesn't see me come up behind her, doesn't sense me because she is engrossed in one of her mangas. I put my hands over her eyes, which gets a small gasp of, "Oh!" from her. I smile and whisper low into her ear, "Guess who?"

Her heart speeds up a little and I feel her smile, " Uh…Let's see….Darien?"

Figures she would guess him first, she's probably expecting him. "Wrong." I whisper, trying not to sound jealous.

"Andrew? Is that you?"

"Wrong again Princess" I don't whisper this time.

She smiles and pulls my hands away, "Haruka!" she leans her head back to look at me.

I grin down at her, my hands resting on the bench on either side of her, "Hey there beautiful, shouldn't you be in school?"

"Not me, we've got the day off to study for exams."

"What are you doing reading mangas in the park?"

She blushes and laughs, "You know me, I just couldn't concentrate besides, it's too nice a day for studying."

"I see, so are you all alone today?" If her friends are around it will be easier for me to resist the thoughts that her dress has already put into my head, I glance around but don't see any of the other Scouts.

"Rini gets out in an hour so I'm waiting."

Of course she is waiting for Rini, they bicker frequently and annoyingly but they love each other as mother and daughter should. I don't remember my mother, I don't think any Scout does, our mission since birth has been to protect the earth and our Princess Usagi. There isn't any bitterness or regret, those emotions are impossible when you are defending someone as warm and full of love as Usagi. I wonder if Michiru is even a little bit jealous of my feelings for Usagi, maybe not but it's possible.

I must have been deep in thought because when Usagi calls my name there is concern in her voice. I blink to refocus my eyes but now she is standing, staring at me and the bench is between us.

"Haruka, is something wrong?" her head tilts to the side, "You know you can talk to me if you have a problem."

I shake my head and try to smile, "There is nothing wrong, I was just thinking about things."

She moves next to me and takes my hands, "Are you sure there isn't anything wrong, you really zoned out on me there."

I wonder what she tastes like, with Michiru it's roses and the faintest bit of chlorine from all the time she spends at the pool.

I don't want to scare Usagi so I search my mind for the right words to say, this could be my only chance.

"Usagi?" I take a few steps back, the space between us helps me to think clearer.

"Yes?" her eyes big with concern.

"Have you ever been in love with anyone besides Darien?"

She blushes and laughes, " Well…" she scratches her head, " I used to have a crush on Andrew, then there was Alan who turned out to be an alien, then there was the Moonlight Knight who turned out to be Darien's memories." She giggles and leans against the back of the bench.

I can't help but smile even though it's clear that she's never really loved anyone but him.

"What about you Haruka, are you crushing on anybody lately?"

Finally we're here at the big question, is it just a crush or something a little deeper? Is it possible to love two people at the same time? I want to believe that it is but maybe I'm being selfish again and greedy. "Maybe but I don't think it's as simple as a crush, I think it's deeper."

"Oh wow! How exciting, do I know the person? C'mon spill Haruka!"

I take a step closer to her and lean forward, my eyes lock on to hers, "Can you guess?"

She is smarter than anyone gives her credit for, I can see on her face almost immediately that she understands but then again I don't think I'm being all that subtle. "Oh!" she squeaks and tries to step back but she is already up against the back of the bench, "Haruka?"

I take another step closer so our bodies are nearly touching, "I can't stop thinking about you Usagi." I caress her cheek, taking pleasure in its warmth.

She's blushing harder now and I can feel her heart beat quickening again, "Haruka but-"

I kiss her before she can finish, I already know what she was going to say. Usagi moves her arms in between our chests to push me away but I wrap my arms around her tighly and hold her between myself and the bench. I know I'm forcing myself on her but it's the only way to keep her guilt free, she'd be depressed for days if she thought she'd consented to it in any way. If I don't let her play the victim, she'll be ruined, the purity gone and nothing left but shame and the guilt of betrayal.

I don't mind being the villain of this love triangle.

The need to breathe forces me to end the kiss, I'm panting as I look down at her. She's breathing heavily as well but there are tears running down her cheeks and she won't look me in the eyes.

What did I do? Was this the wrong way to show her? Did I ruin everything?

"Usagi!"

Darien's voice jolts us both awake from our shock. Serena's head snaps up and meets my eyes for the first time. I release her and take a few steps back, she immediately runs to Darien.

When I finally turn my head to look at them, I see that she is wrapped in his arms, her face buried in his chest and she is crying. Darien barely looks at me, I'm not sure what he's feeling at the moment because his eyes flick away too quickly and he turns away to lead her to his car a few feet away.

I watch him open the door for her and help her in then I turn around and start walking in the direction of my bike. I have to hurry home and switch it for the car so that I can pick up Michiru.

For the first time in days, my mind is completely clear as I ride home because I'm no longer worried about my feelings for Usagi. When I pull up in front of the kindergarten, Michiru is already waiting for me, "Am I very late?" I ask as I step out to open the door for her.

She smiles, "Not very, did you get distracted by something?" she slides into the passenger seat.

I close the door and walk back over to my side. Michiru is very direct in a subtle way, I also think she enjoys teasing me. " I kissed Usagi in the park today." I answer honestly because I have no reason to lie to Michiru, "Darien saw us."

Her eyes sparkle mischeviously like I've just let her in on a dark secret, "I see, so how was it Haruka?"

I smile a little despite my guilt, "She eats far too much candy and junk."

Michiru laughs, "Oh no! Was it bad?"

I shake my head, "Not at all, she tastes unbelievably sweet and somehow like snow."

Michiru giggles, "Well she is from the moon, it's a very cold place."

"I only hope Darien doesn't give her a hard time over it."

"I can't imagine why you would do it in a public place like that but it's better that he knows. There should not be any secrets between any of us."

"You're right, Michiru."

"Hmmmm…"

"What is it?" I glance at her quickly then back at the road.

"I was just wondering what Darien would taste like?"

To say I'm shocked is an understatement, "Are you serious?"

"Well why not? I've never kissed a man before, I want to know what one tastes like."

"Trust me Michiru, they aren't that great."

Michiru laughs, " Am I detecting jealousy Haruka?"

Maybe a little jealousy but I was serious about my comment. The last time I kissed a male I was 10 years old and he tasted like mud and bugs, needless to say I never wanted to kiss another male again. "You'll have to wait your turn Michiru, I don't think he'll be leaving Usagi's side for a while."

"You're probably right but I can wait, I've got my hands full enough with you."

"Am I so much trouble?"

She smiles, "Just easily distracted, fortunately I know how to get your attention, " she pats my thigh and rests her head on my shoulder.

She certainly does know how to keep my attention, I don't think about Usagi for the rest of the day.
