Dreams Of Reality
Ok I'm BAAAACK!!! And I brought another chappy with me too!!! I'm not going to bore you with the senseless with my ramblings.
So on with the fic...
Chapter 2 - Bad News! Or Is It?
Rini slowly opened her eyes and stared blurrily around her bedroom. Did I really just see Helios again?! her mind churned. Had it been her imagination. A made up fantasy she created with her deepest desires?
No.
It wasn't possible for Helios to appear in a dream unless it was actually him. She would just have to wait till night, when her mind would fall captive to the dream world, to find out. But right now....
"Hime! Time to get up!!" came the beautiful feminin voice of her best friend, Hotaru.
"I'm already up Hota-chan!" she called back
"Oh ok. I'll see you at breakfast?! I've got to get to a court meeting." came the already fading voice
"Ok, bye!"
Rini sighed and slipped out of bed, into her robe before heading to her private bathroom. The tub was already being filled with warm water and the escence of the rose petals, that were covering the top, drifted lazily to her petite nose.
"Good Morning your Majesty. Your bath is ready, and I've laid out a new dress for you." smiled the old maid, bowing.
"Thank you Lilian. What would I do without you?" she smiled softly and hugged the servant.
"I love taking care of you Hime. As for what you'd do with out me well... I have no idea." smiled Lilian as she lay down a soft fluffy bathrobe and a matching white towel, with her name expertly sown on in pale pink.
The nanny gave one last bow before leaving, closing the door behind her with a soft click.
Rini, smiling, took off her robe, and nightgown, slipping into the perfectly temperatured water, soundlessly, relaxing back. She gently lay her head against the side, sighing contently, her heart, lighter than it had been in years.Helios...
~~~At The Breakfast Table, 1/2 an Hour Later~~~
"Are you sure Rini is coming to breakfast? We are starting in 5 mins, with or without her." sighed King Endymoin.
"Yes Your Majesty, I spoke with her earlier. Before I went to the court meeting. She said she would join us today." Hotaru's' face grew thoughtful as she remembered the meeting that had just finished...
~*(FLASHBACK)*~
"Ok now this isn't an official meeting guys. This is more about Rini. She is coming to the age of courtship but she's still hung up on Helios." sighed Neo-Queen Serenity.
"Is that why I'm sensing depression from her?" asked Rei gently as the others grew thoughtful.
"Come to think of it, she has seemed pretty down lately." Ami stated a finger held up to her cheek.
"Yes, she has been, so I am planning a little surprise ball for her. She is bound to find someone there. She has not seen Helios since she returned from the past. Not even in dreams. Love is bound to blossom with some of the eligable Prince's of the other planets." sighed Neo-Queen Serenity with a sad smile, "Though I still say she and Helios were the cutest couple..."
"I wonder why he never contacted her. I know he loved Rini dearly." sighed Mina sitting back in her chair.
"It is none of our business, but now we must help her move on."
~*(END FLASHBACK)*~
"But she seemed so much more happier when I spoke with her... Wonder why..."
A worried look came across Mina's face as she saw her princess enter the dining room, with a smile that, for once, actually reached her eyes. There was something else too but she couldn't quite put her finger on it...
"Morning everyone!" her voice even seemed lighter than before. It contained more happiness and unforced emotion.
"Good morning honey. Did you sleep well?" asked the Queen, a curious look in her eyes.
"Yes mother. Very well thank you." she said in a nonchalent voice,though her eyes were full of happiness. Somethinig which, as of late, was very unusual for the crown princess.
Right thhen and there, Mina's mind snapped to attention. The way she carried herself. It was no longer the forced demeanour of her acting, but a flowing movement of happiness. No that wasn't it... well it was, but there was something else... something renewed...
"Rini, honey you know you are coming to the age of courtship, annd eventually marriage..." sighed the king. Rini nodded as she began to eat her food gracefully, "well your mother and I have decided to have a grand ball in that honour. Maybe you could start anew..." he trailed of as he saw her head snap to him, white as a ghost, then quickly filling with colour till it was turning a shade of hot pink, he couldn't tell if it were from imbarrasment or anger, but he soon found out...
"NO father. I know what you are thinking... it is NOT happening, if I have to, I'll leave!" she growled in a low, voice, making it obvious she meant everyword of it, "You know my heart already belongs to another... it is no longer mine to give." this, she ended up saying in a sort of growl.
"Honey, we believe it's for the best..."
Now the princess looked damn right outraged, "For the best?" she asked her calm voice portraying a completely different scene, than that of her angry face, "For the best?!?" she slowly stood up, "FOR THE BEST?! Father you don't even know me any more?!!! How could you know what is best for ME!?! Not the KINGDOM. 'ME'!" her voice growing louder as her anger increased, though it never turned into a shout, or a scream.
"Chibi Usagi Serenity! SIT DOWN." he demanded at his daughter. Somethinig wasn't righht. How could she STILL be in love with Helios. She had not had any form of contact in 10 YEARS.
But Rini did not sit. Instead she moved the chair and turned to leave, "I'm sorry 'FATHER'." she bit out sarcastically, "But I've suddenly lost my apetite. If anyone wants me, I'll be in my quaters. Do not disturb me unless it's absolutely nescessary." and she left like lightning, before they could see her tears, but it did not work, for Queen Mina still noticed them
Tears of heartbreak... "OH MY GOODNESS!! THAT SPARK! THAT SPARK BETWEEN RINI AND HELIOS!!! IT'S THE STRONGEST I'VE FELT IT YET!!!" she exclaimed, eyes wide as saucers.
All eyes snapped to her in shock, especially the King's. You could see pain in his features, "Oh no... If what you're saying is true... what have we done? We cannot stop the ball... the invitations have already been sent out..."
"Dear... do not worry so much... I knew Helios was going to visit our daughter last night... I felt her wish when it was made... but this is sgoing exactly as planned... Do not worry yourself..." assured Neo-Queen Serenity. Gently touching her husbands shoulder.
~~~Rini's Room~~~
She threw herself onto her bed and used magic to seal the room, so no one could get in. Tears began to fall like waterfalls from her eyes and heart wrenching sobs escaped her lips every other second, as she burried her face into her pillow, hoping to stiffle them.
Soon, her eyes became heavy, and her mind drifted into the world of dreams, though her tears still continued to fall, even in her sleep...
~*(DREAM)*~
Rini once again found herself in the beautiful garden, except this time, she was sitting on the fountain's edge, still shedding tears. She didn't even look up when she heard the soft footsteps of a stranger. Only continued to cry her eyes out. "Love what is it? You are so sad!!" said a gentle voice, one she recognised well.
She never looked up...
"Rini? What happened?" this time she felt two strong arms encircle her, pulling her closer to him. "please tell me..."
"Oh Helios, mother and father wish me to find someone for courtship!! They don't understand that I don't want anyone but YOU!!" she cried, hot tears falling onto his chest, as she continued to shake.
Helios hugged her tighter, pulling her to sit on his lap, as he rocked her gently, "Rini. My Love, it will be alright in the end... you'll see. And I'm flattered that your love for me runs so deep." he smiled slightly when he heard her sobs turned to sniffles as he felt her cheeks widen ever so slightly in a small smile,
"Please don't let them Helios. I don't anyone else, You stole my heart, I no longer have it to give! It's yours for all eternity." she whispered softly against his chest, tears slowly subsiding.
"I will let none take you from me Maiden. You can bargin your life safely on that-" he lifted her chin and crushed his lips to hers. Her eyes fluttered closed and she began to respond with just has much need. Was it just her, or was it getting warm all of a sudden...
Her arms flew up around his neck, and pressed him ever closer as the kissed got deeper still. It was getting rather 'heated' when Helios reluctantly broke away, panting slightly. "I'm sorry Maiden...but if we do not stop, my love for you may just get out of hand... and I feel someone is summoning you to awaken..." he sighed, brushing her slightly messed up hair, out of her face.
"Please Helios. I don't want to go back, I want to stay here with you!" she quickly engaged him in yet another heated kiss. Next thing she knew, she was on the soft green grass, him laying ontop of her, though she didn't mind one bit. She loved the guardian of Dreams, and she trusted him.
Again, he broke the kiss reluctantly, "Small Lady I-"
"Shhh" she place a finiger on his lips looking into his eyes tenderly, "Helios, I love you. So I trust you. I don't mind..." he kissed her finger lightly, and moved it around his neck, before trailing hot kisses from her forehead (making her cresent moon birthmark shine extremely brightly, causing the golden crystal within him to repond) to her nose, her cheek, her jaw, her chin and finally their lips locked in a passion filled kiss.
Helios' hands moved down to Rini's waist, and hers trailed down from his neck, to his chest, feeling each and every muscle he atoned from fighting off the demons that plagued the dream world. He slowly moved away, she could see desire in his eyes, mixed in the emotion of love, but he looked slightly saddend, "Love, you're waking, maybe next time we could finish what we started," he grinned shyly, and winked, making her blush prettily,
"Maybe." she used her best seductive, and suggestive voice, before she pecked his lips, just as the dream began to fade,
"till next time, my love."
~*(END OF DREAM)*~
She woke up to heavy banging on the door, "Rini!!! OPEN THIS DOOR NOW!! Come on Small Lady, I want to talk!!" called her best friend who happened to be Queen Hotaru,
Grumbling under her breath Rini looked in the mirror and saw she was a total wreck, preforming a quick hair fixing charm, she undid the magical seal on her room, and lay back down.
