Meaning "talking" *thinking*

The Date

Rei looked across the table at Kana. She tipped her head to the side. *He reminds me of someone, but I don't know who,* she thinks to herself as she sips her drink. Suddenly Kana's appearance changes. He is in armor; much like what Prince Endymion wore, his eyes change for brown to violet and a symbol glowed on his forehead. The symbol looked like a small sun. * So, the moon never covered the sun in my dream...*

"Rei, penny for you thoughts," asked Kana, startling Rei from the depth of her mind.

Rei snapped back to reality. "Oh, it is nothing," she smiles. "I just thought I saw something." *It strange, the man in my vision could have been Aiko's father and my vision made Kana that man. Is Aiko my child and Kana my future husband?* Rei fought the visions. She couldn't get excited. Usually vision were just representation, not the real facts.....

The waiter picked up the empty plates off the table. Rei smiled. *This was so wonderful. He was a gentleman and a sweetheart thoughout the whole meal. Sweetheart? Aww....Yuuchiro, He is always a sweetheart.* Rei thinks as she pictures Yuuchirodoing the daily chores. Her smile gets bigger. *Usagi still believes that Yuuchiro should be my sweetheart.* Rei laughs in her mind as she remember Usagi still attempting to set them up.

"Rei?" Kana laughed. "You keep floating away. What are you thinking about?"

*Another man* she thought to herself as she answers. "Usagi. She made a fool of herself today and for some reason I thought of that. *That a good lie,* she thought as she mentally patted herself on the back.

"What did she do?" he asked, with a amused smile on his face. He picks up the bill and hands it to the waiter.

Rei finds herself making up a story about Usagi being her usual clumsy self, as they walk to the exit of the restant. Once they are outside, Kana pull Rei to him. "You're fun to be with." he says as he leans down to kiss her.

Aiko sit up in bed, breathing hard. "No! Mama!" he exclaims as cold sweat covers his body and his p.j.'s stick to him.

*No! Mama!* runs though Rei mind right before Kana's lips touched hers and with those words a vision of the raven-haired boy running toward her came into her mind. *Aiko!* she thinks. The moon explodes in the vision as she pushes herself away from him. "I don't kiss on the first date," she heard herself say. *Where did that come from?* she thought as she tried to calm herself down *And was that Aiko? If I had kissed Kana would have the Moon really exploded or is there more to this?*

"I'll take you home," he offered, though Rei knew he was disappointed.

The ride back to the temple was quiet. Once they had arrived Kana walked around to open Rei's door. She steps out. "Are you sure about the kiss?" he asked, pulling her to him.

Rei looks at his lips and had to stop herself from licking her own. "I'm sure."

"Well then, Good night Rei. Don't dream your dreams tonight," he said, with almost a sneer in his voice.

Rei turned to ask what did he mean by the last remark, but he was already in the car.

Rei ran up the stairs. She paused at the top to catch her breath and then rushed past everyone and everything to her room where she was sure Aiko is. She opened the door to peek in, but the child is not where in sight. *I need to go the fire room to understand my vision.* she thought as she turned to walk back down the hallway. She walks to the room and opens the sliding panel. Aiko is sitting in front of the fire like Rei often does. Rei was in a bit of a shock as she entered the room quietly, as not to disturb the small boy. Visions of her childhood of sitting there ran through her mind. *Can he read the fire as well?* Rei thinks as she leans against the wall to watch the small boy concentrating on the sacred fire. She was very confused.
