Naiya rolled over and blinked slowly. The light beamed down into her room.
"I don't wanna get up," she mumbled as she pulled the covers up over her head, "I'm still sleepy." Downstairs in the ballroom she could hear gentle piano music. A wide smile spread across her face as she threw the covers off of her and rushed down the stairwell. In the ballroom she spotted Zoicite seated at the piano. Cira twirled around in sync with the music in the middle of the room.
"Come dance with me," she smiled as she continued twirling and swaying. Naiya nodded and rushed to the middle of the room. Without skipping a beat she began twirling and swaying along to the music. Celino leaned against the wall and watched them intently.
"Zoicite is a wonderful pianist," he remarked noting Kunzite's presence.
"Indeed he is," Kunzite replied. He leaned close to Celino and whispered, "There is something I must talk to you about, my liege." Celino nodded and followed Kunzite out to the garden. Celino and Kunzite talked in hushed voices as they discussed the problem that troubled Kunzite.
"I can assure you that she wouldn't dare to come here," Celino said confidently, "we have the best protection in the universe." Kunzite nodded still feeling a bit troubled.
"You are correct, my liege," he nodded, "should I mention this to Cira? After all, the Dark Kingdom was her father's domain." Celino shook his head.
"I don't want to worry her over nothing," he smiled and patted Kunzite on the back. Kunzite nodded and plastered a smile on his face then the two of them headed back into the palace.
"Did you hear that?" Mars whispered as he held Jadeite's arm tightly. Jadeite nodded. "What do you think we should do?" He looked up at Jadeite.
"Nothing," Jadeite whispered back and caressed Mars' cheek. "If Celino is not worried about it," he smiled gently, "then why should we?" Jadeite stared down at Mars and smiled gently at him. He ruffled his black hair lightly. "I think you're the worrier of the group," he laughed lightly.
"Hey," Mars pouted and crossed his arms, "that's not nice." Jadeite grabbed Mars and pulled him close to him.
"I'm only teasing, love," he whispered as he kissed Mars' forehead lightly.
"I know," Mars chuckled, "I know."
