Seiya's eyes widened from the little girl's response. Sure, he had predicted this all along, but it was just as much of a shock as it ever could be. Seiya looked up at Usagi, who turned several shades of red. "Odango," he commenced, straightening up, "Is this little girl your daughter?"

A silence hung over the room, lurking on top of each of their shoulders. Each and every person in that room was anxious to hear what Usagi would say.

"Seiya," Usagi murmured, as she drew closer to him. Yaten stepped in front of Seiya defensively, his eyes buring into hers. Seiya shook his head at Yaten, and gently pushed him aside. "Seiya," Usagi continued. "You know I'm Sailor Moon. There's another secret I have though."

"Usagi!" Minako declared, clutching Usagi's shoulder in warning. Usagi looked back at her blonde haired friend, her eyes hopeful and trustworthy. "No, Minako-chan, I've been hiding too many secrets already." Minako slinked off, standing by her friends. They all look concerned, though Rei looked squarely into Usagi's eyes. "Usagi," she thought.

As if Usagi could sense Rei's thought, she thought back, "Don't worry, Rei-chan. It'll work out fine." There was some sort of telepathic connection between those two for those quick seconds. Rei nodded and smiled to encourage her.

"Seiya," Usagi started again. "Not only am I Tsukino Usagi; I'm Sailor Moon. Not only am I Sailor Moon, I'm.." she paused, as The Three Lights hung on her every word. "I'm the Moon Princess."

Seiya's eyes widened even more, as Yaten and Taiki gasped. Yaten put one hand on his silver hair, and Taiki rubbed his chin.

"Chibiusa," she continued, "Is my daughter sent from the future."

Seiya looked down on Chibiusa, who had those gleaming pair of red eyes. So many thoughts and emotions brewed in his heart right then, but for some strange reason, he was even more compelled to her.

No wonder he was attracted to Usagi," Taiki thought to himself. "She's a princess, like our Kakyuu."

Yaten just shook his head in disgust. "How can she handle being a princess, when she can't even handle her own damn romantic life?"

Seiya kneeled down to Chibiusa once again, as she awaited his reaction. He smiled, and Chibiusa instantly liked him, strangely enough, the same way as she loved Mamoru. "Oh Chibi Usagi. You have a mighty fine life to live." He chuckled as he patted her head.

"What am I, a dog?" she grunted, as Yaten burst into laughter, lifting the silence from the room. Everyone erupted into laughter, except for Seiya, who simply stared at the mother and daughter. There were many things he had to straighten out. And it wouldn't be an easy task.

* * * *

"Oh, you're a sinister one," Taiki commented, as he got up from the circle, and clucked around like a chicken, with a sock hanging from his nose. The group burst out laughing, Yaten and Seiya the most, cheering him on. They were back in their game of Truth or Dare, though the girls had to explain to the Three Lights how to play. They weren't familiar to the game, though Seiya was the first one who was excited to join in. Reluctantly after, Yaten and Taiki decided they might as well. "What am I doing?" Taiki mused, as he looked in the mirror across the room, with a sock dangling from his nose. "I've never felt this way before." He looked at Ami, who politely covered her mouth as she laughed. This brought a grin to his face, and continued to cluck around.

Minako chuckled as she shook her head in satisifaction. "I warned you I have the best dares," she said, as she winked at Taiki. "Now it's your turn, Taik-san."

"Ami-chan," he remarked, her eyes gleaming up at him. She hadn't been chosen as one of the victims yet, and he was curious. He sat cross legged across her, as Seiya and Yaten stared at him with smiling eyes.

"Truth," she quietly replied, as the group groaned. "What a dull girl you are," Usagi commented, though she nudged her in the ribs playfully.

"Truth it is," Taiki echoed, as he crossed his fingers carefully. Her eyes were beautiful, he thought. Unlike the other girls, there was something more to her, something that he couldn't quite pinpoint. He remembered that time when she had been rambling on about romance, while he stuck to science. He couldn't understand her then, and he still couldn't know. "Ami.. What do you really think of me?"

Seiya and Yaten's jaw dropped in unison, as the girls smirked in Ami's direction. They all had their suspicions about the blue haired girl being attracted to her intelligent match. Rei had teased her about it earlier that evening, and Ami became very defensive about it. When she had retreated to the washroom, the girls all gossiped playfully about how they would make the cutest couple.

Ami turned scarlet red, as she looked down bashfully. "What do I say?" she thought to herself. She wouldn't lie to him, it was against her moral values to lie to someone about anything, even if it might be for the best. Sure, she had played this thought around in her minds as she slipped into bed at night, and had still not recovered a true answer. At least, she wouldn't admit to the one that came to mind. "Taiki-san. To me," she started, "You are a talented musician. Your intelligence is astounding and you seem to have been my match at school lately." She giggled softly. "Your music really does come from the heart. And although you may seem rather cold on the outside, I know you have a warm heart." She had another thing to add, but she wouldn't dare say it out loud.

Taiki smirked and was pleased with this answer. "Arigatou," he smiled, as he wondered what this girl meant to him. Her answer was not what he was looking for, but he didn't want to push on, making her uncomfortable. That would have to wait for a later time.

"Hmm, my turn, right?" Ami asked. Usagi nodded beside her. Choosing her victim carelessly, she chose the first person in sight. "Seiya!"

Seiya was pleased that someone finally had chosen him, as he had waited in this game, his heart beating quicker as it was time for someone to choose their victim. "Give me a dare." Yaten nudged him in the ribs, and it felt like old times. "Hai Yaten," Seiya thought, "I remember fun and games like this as well."

"Very well," Ami pondered, rubbing her chin intently. "I dare you to play around with Usagi-chan's hair, and make it all nice and pretty." The girls giggled in laughter, as the Three Lights just rolled their eyes pathetically.

"What an easy dare," Seiya thought to himself. He crawled over to Usagi, and caressed her hair. She looked up at him, as he neared her ear. "Your hair is a soft as a kitten's." She smiled, as she faced the rest of the group once again. Seiya carefully undid her odangos, as the fell to the floor. Yaten and Taiki gasped at the ressemblance of her to their Kakyuu. Seiya, too, was surprised, at how remarkable and beautiful she looked with her hair down. "Why don't you wear it this way, Odango?"

Usagi looked up at him playfully. "If I was to wear it this way, you couldn't call me Odango."

The girls exchanged uncomfortable glances, as they immediately started up a conversation to distract attention from the two. Taiki also sensed their hint, and played along, while Yaten just stared at the two. Taiki smacked his friend's arm, as he reluctantly started making small talk with the girls.

Seiya ran his long and slender fingers through her hair. "Your hair is beautiful, you know?" The blonde glimmered in the light, as the pitter patter of the rain echoed behind them.

Usagi closed her eyes, letting his smooth touches relax her. "Thank you," she replied.

Seiya played with her bangs, and tucked them behind her ears. Lastly, he put her whole hair up in a pony tail that was at mid length, and he stood back to admire his work. She was gorgeous. He smiled, as he nudged his two friends. The group stared at Usagi, as she just grinned, wondering what he did to her hair. "Is it nice?"

Makoto started laughing and said, "You look like a real princess, Usa-chan!"

Usagi giggled and went to the mirror. She admired her hair. Now that it was not in odangos anymore, it touched her ankles. "Kawaii!!" she shrieked and beamed at Seiya, who just shrugged, and went back to his place in the circle.

"Alright," Seiya said, his voice booming. He rubbed his hands together evilly, as he looked around. "Yaten!"

Taiki chuckled as Yaten's eyes lightened up. "Dare me, Seiya, and make it good."

Seiya winked as he already had in mind the perfect dare for his friend. He had his suspicions about a certain something, and wanted to play on them. "Yaten, I dare you to go in that closet," he pointed at the one around the hallway, "With Rei-chan for ten minutes." Yaten narrowed his eyes on Seiya, as he blushed. "Whatever you two do is your business, but I want details when we get back home."

Yaten looked over at Rei, who had a crimson colour on her face. Her raven black hair blanketed her shoulders, and her bangs covered her eyes, as she looked down on the floor. "Hai!" Yaten said, and grabbed Rei's arm. She looked back at the other girls in desperation. They just shrugged, while Luna winked at her from a nearby couch, listening to the whole game and conversation.

Yaten opened the door for Rei, as she stepped inside bashfully. She was nearly as tall as he was, but he still felt as if he was the masculine role; despite his natural form as Sailor Star Healer: a girl. He stepped in after Rei, and just then noticed how cramped everything was. There was barely enough room for the two of them, and he was sure that Seiya was aware of the fact that Rei would have to be leaning against him the whole time. Still, he enjoyed the beginning of it, as he slowly closed the door, catching a glimpse of Seiya's satisfied smirk. It was very dark in the closet, though there was a slight crack at the top, where light came streaming in. Consequently enough, it was on Rei's eyes, looking at him.

"So," Yaten started in an uncomfortable manner, which was quite unlike himself. "What am I doing?" he thought. "This isn't like me. I'm usually a proud guy. Why am I so uncomfortable and anxious around this girl?"

There was another light on the other side of the closet, that fell on Yaten's eyes, and she saw his beautiful, green pair. She giggled at his akward comment and just echoed, "So." "I've never been this close to him before," she thought to herself. "His warmth..."

"Her warmth.." he thought. Yaten slowly slid his arms around her waist, as she jolted up. She hid her head on the bottom of a nearby shelf, and groaned.

Yaten laughed, but as he, too, hit his head on it. As the two figures leaned in to comfort their heads, they jolted their eyes open, only to see how close they were. Rei leaned as far as back as possible, and strained to hear what was going on in the other room. There was laughter and talking, and she was relieved that they weren't listening in.

"What do you think those two are doing in there?" Minako wondered, smirking in a dirty fashion. "I just heard a couple of things knock down, I can only imagine what they're going to do next."

They group laughed nervously, as they looked back at the closet. "I don't think that Rei-chan would do anything," Makoto commented. "Although she just broke up with Yuuchiro --"

The girls gasped. "They broke up?!"

Taiki and Seiya raised their eyebrows. "Who's this?"

Usagi sighed. "Her boyfriend, or should I say, ex-boyfriend. He was the only guy that she was able to settle down with. Wow," she murmured, "If I had a penny for every guy she went out with in the past!"

Taiki turned his head to Seiya slowly, as a smirk came upon his face. "Yaten was like that to; never could go with just one guy.. Or girl.. Or.." Seiya scratched his head, as they all laughed, Chibiusa still not quite catching on.

Yaten once again gained his cool fashion in the closet, and smirked. [Her hair is as silky as a winter's first snow.] His arms slowly encircled her waist, as she tensed up. [Her eyes are an elegant shade of violet.. Strange, she looks curious, and almost scared.] His hands traced her back, as she quietly clenched her fists in anxiety. [And her lips.. oh, her lips.] Yaten slowly leaned forward, as he couldn't resist this throbbing pain anymore, and their lips met from his yearnful desire.
