Kunzite had never been afraid of being drove out. The only thing he considered about the happening of such thing was, if he was banished, he could not protect his little sakura any more. The talent, promising boy was powerful, but still, he was always the innocent, soft pretty boy needing protection and care from his teacher in Kunzite's mind.

He felt being needed by the boy, especially when Zoisite was nestling in his arm, murmuring "Kunzite-sama".

With himself thinking so, Kunzite couldn't help gripped Zoisite impulsively. One of his arm was rounding the pretty boy's waist, and his other arm were holding the younger's arms in his own.

"Kunzite-sama…" Actually, they had caught and understood each other's feeling for some time. But neither of the two had ever pointed it out directly, and…that was their first intimate contact—so intimate a contact. Zoisite didn't resist at all. He just leaned against his silver-haired teacher and held the older tennou's warm hands with his own.

***(There is a lemon section here, and I will translate that into English as soon as possible…and I plan to make the lemon section an independent version of M rate. Well…anyway, I need time…)***

As a result, it's correct to believe that it was Endimion who has been the catalyst in the reaction between Kunzite and Zoisite, at least correct to some extent. Therefore, Endimion had some unsaid understandings with the very private couple. He kept their secret rather safe, even to his royal parents.

Endimion never thought there was anything inappropriate between the two generals. Just in the contrary, he believed that they deserved their happiness since they were so deeply in love.

Sharing such a secret may be the reason why Kunzite and Zoisite are more closely to the prince than the other two guardians. Jadeite was devoting himself for loyalty, while Nephrite was doing the same for his own honor and pride. Neither of them shared any feeling or anything else with the prince.

However, just after the appearance of Princess Serenity in the ball, Zoisite perceived that such understanding was becoming weaker and weaker. The feeling was as slight as a petal, but as clear as a crystal, and as prominent as a recital.

The connection between the prince and the shitennou were still there, but it felt like…some external force was breaking the balance, slowly, quietly but certainly.

The young general shared his feeling with his beloved teacher. And the latter gently caressed his young lover's copper hair, without any words.

For Zoisite, such action was enough. And words, sometimes, are superfluous.

No matter how the world was going, he felt safe and warm in his beloved Kunzite-sama's embrace. Zoisite slowly calmed down, and became less upset. Kunzite saw the trepidation fading from his beloved student's eyes, and then he said:"Zoisite, No matter what happen, you mustn't lose your belief and perseverance."

"Hai(Yes, sir), Kunzite-sama." Zoisite answered while rubbing one of Kunzite's hands with his face slightly. He felt trusting and needing the Ice-King so much, even though the whole world crumbling around him, just knowing Kunzite standing behind him would encourage him to face all the horrible disasters without any fear, because Kunzite was his whole world.

According to the schedule, Queen Serenity, Princess Serenity and the Sailor Scouts will stay at the kingdom of Elysium for at least a couple of weeks, for the sake of the long live friendship between Millennium and Elysium. During these days, they have not only formal meetings and dinners and visits, but also some informal entertainments, such as grand balls, picnics in the gardens and skating that was the most popular sport on the moon.

It seemed really common and harmless in the beginning two, or even three days.

In the sense of the majority, it was certainly an uncommon event for Queen Serenity, Princess Serenity and the four Sailor Scouts to visit the Earth. After all, the glory of the moon princess was shining all over the earth. The moonlight-liked radiance was so flashing so gentle, that anybody would like to gaze at her, especially Prince Endimion.

At the same time, Princess Serenity had fallen in love as deeply as Endimion. The young terrain prince of Elysium had an appearance of strength both physically and mentally. Those kinds of characteristics which obviously different with the nobles on the moon were really attractive to the princess.

The princess thought she had hold her feeling secret, yet, even her every sight was in the vision of her dear mother.

Queen Serenity stared at her daughter that was badly in love. She thought a lot, nodded slightly, even unwittingly.

It is the fact that the land area of Elysium was fourteen times large of Millennium.
