Ten- Date Night
"Do you think they're gonna kiss?" Hissed Serena, peeking at her sister and Lita.
"I hope so!" Mina whisper-yelled, fangirling.
"You guys, this isn't right!" Amy said, worried her friends would discover them.
"Of course it is!" Raye said quietly."They're both our friends. Why shouldn't we watch the romance bloom?"
"I ship it!" Whisper-squealed Star, smiling for the first time in days. When Phoenyx had had her coma, Star had been so worried she had had a miscarriage.
"Don't you guys think this is rude?"Asked Darien, who had been along for the ride.
"Absolutely NOT!"Serena whispered indignantly."As her sister, I happen to have every right to spy on them."
Indeed, Phoenyx and Lita were a good couple. They sat together in the fancy restraunt, completely unaware that they were all being watched.
"I'm glad you're feeling better."Lita said gently, taking a sip of the sparkling cider in her champagne flute. Phoenyx smiled, her hair in an adorable french braid that Mina had helped her with. She had pale pink saphires in her ears, and she wore a loose white maternity dress. She was wearing a loose silver circlet upon her forehead, and looked every inch the beautiful princess she was.
"So am I." Phoenyx said, holding Lita's hand from across the table. They were an amazing couple, and it was obvious all the other couples there knew it. Lita was dressed in an emerald gown, with her familiar rose earrings in her ears. She wore a simple jade pendant around her neck, and her hair fell loosely, framing her face beautifully.
"I'm so hungry I could probably eat everything in the restraunt." Phoenyx joked, licking her lips free of the purple grape juice.
Lita chuckled and tucked a strand of stray hair out of Phoenyx's face, making the other girl blush."You probably could." She said.
For a moment the two were silent, watching the snow fall quietly on the sidewalk.
"These past two weeks have been the best of my life." Said Lita with a bright smile. Phoenyx blushed more and laughed softly.
"Its been amazing, being with you." She agreed, smiling.
"So cute~!" Squealed Serena softly, being careful not to make any sudden movements. Darien watched, holding his pregnant fiancee.
"She's definitely over Rydder." He said, relieved."I was worried about her for a long time."
"Well, she's definitely in love with Lita." Whispered Mina with satisfaction."I can sense it."
Phoenyx and Lita's food came and they began to eat, still talking softly.
"So you've lived alone all these years?"Phoenyx asked quietly, her eyes wide. She simply couldn't imagine a life without Kenji and Ikuko, let alone one without Serena or Sammy.
"Yes."Lita said sadly."I lived with a distant relative until I was about ten, and then they died and I was sent back to live in the apartment I have now. I've lived alone ever since. But when we were fourteen and I met you, I haven't felt lonely or anything else since that day."
Phoenyx blushed more and leaned across the table, gently kissing Lita. That kiss said more than a thousand words ever could, and they both knew what it meant.
"I love you too."Lita said with a smile.
"Aww-ahh!" Serena yelped, falling out of the bushes separating them.
Phoenyx and Lita both burst into laughter as the stalker friends were hauled off the premises, blushing madly as Darien explained his fiancee's condition and her hormones.
"Well, we knew that was going to happen at one point or another." Said Phoenyx cutely, a bright gleam in her eyes.
Lita giggled as well."Better when its like this than later, when the real stuff is going on."
Phoenyx's entire face burned red and she buried it in her handkerchief, giggling as Lita laughed wickedly.
They finished their food quickly, and after a small dessert the two went for a walk.
They wandered into Lita's home and Lita kissed Phoenyx. Phoenyx kissed back eagerly, looping her arms around Lita's neck. Lita picked the pregnant woman up off her feet and kissed her harder, pushing her against the wall.
Phoenyx gasped in surprise, but continued kissing back, opening her mouth eagerly to her beloved's advances. Their tongues tangled together, passion and love bursting into flame.
And when Lita took it even further, Phoenyx loved it.
She loved everything about it.
