Isn't this world a crazy place?

Just when I thought a chance had passed,

You go and save the best for last.

-Best for last…I can't remember!! Aaaahhhh!!

Ryo woke up to see Rei bent lovingly over him, tending to his wounds.

"Feeling better?" she asked softly. He smiled and nodded. She bent down and kissed him.

"Good." He looked around and saw that he was back in his room, in his bed. Whiteblaze was sleeping contentedly by his side. He tried to sit up and found he couldn't.

"I'm not sure you'll have the strength to get up soon, anyway." She told him. "You're really weak." he smiled again.

"Will you kiss me and make it better?" he asked no louder than a whisper. She smiled.

Sure." and she did.

"Minako...I don't understand....I thought you.." Minako looked up.

"Thought I what, Seiji? I've always cared for you very much. I just didn't know how to tell you before now, or if you shared the same feelings." He grasped her shoulders and looked into her eyes.

"Of course I do. Who wouldn't?" he said, pulling her into a deep french kiss. Makoto, Shin, Ami, Touma, Usagi and Shou walked up.

"What's with the two newest lovebirds on the block?" Minako pulled away and blushed, but Seiji kept a firm grip on her waist.

"I dunno." he said.

"What you guys been up to."

Ami and Makoto both spit out "Nothing!" at the same time. Minako grinned.

"That's a lie. Hey, Touma? Why don't you tell Shin, Seiji and Shou here what you an' Ami did on your last night together." Now it was Touma's turn to blush.

"Well, I uh....we um....that is to say...uh...." Shin burst out laughing.

"Ye donae mean to tell me that neither of you are virgins!!" Touma turned to him.

"And did you and Makoto use a condom?"

The words "Of course we did!" were out of Shin's mouth before he could stop himself. Everyone started cracking up. "Case in point." Touma told him, grinning.

Dear Diary,

So much has happened since I last wrote. We had captured the Ronins and Senshi. They were in our grasp and I let them go. If Rajura ever found out...

He almost made me go after them, but I threw up and he let me stay. Thing is, I didn't want to throw up.

The one thing I don't dare tell Rajura is that there is a reason why I threw up. Here are my symptoms: I'm constantly nauseous, and my appetite has picked up. I'm also over a month late. If Rajura knew what I do....

"What's that you're writing, hon?"

"Oh! Nothing!!"

"I don't see why you create such a fuss over your diary. If you'd just let me read it and get it over with..."

"No way, Rajura. I have my most private thoughts recorded in here." Rajura' eye fell on something, and his eye grew wide.

"You're over a month late?" Bertie hurriedly slammed the book shut and nodded.

"Anything else?"

"Well, I've been throwing up more than you know..and I've been eating alot more..." Rajura sighed and sat on his bed.

"Dammit Bertie, why didn't you tell me?"

"I wasn't sure." She climbed under the covers and started to cry. Rajura climbed in too and held her.

"Tomorrow, we get a home pregnancy test. Okay?" Bertie nodded. She looked up and Rajura kissed her. She dropped her diary in it's place, turned out the light and went to sleep against Rajura' chest.

"Goodnight, hon." he whispered, before going to sleep himself.

Shou looked at the stars. He liked to do this often. It gave him time to think, and tonight, there was much to think about. Mostly about his armor. Was it really evil? Could he control it? What would happen if his comrade's lives were in his hands? Would he blow it? Would he...could he actually kill them?

Afternote: Well, people, hope you enjoyed the show. I'll see what I can do about Bertie and Shou and Sh'ten later. You'll just have to wait. For Now, I'm Outie! =^)

(That's it, that's one of my earliest fics. It's like four years old. What do you think? Let me know. Ja ne, minna!!)
