[A/N: You know, I have tried not to put notes in the beginning of this story, but I just wanted to let that person who commented know something. (In a very friendly way though!) Actually, I am very happy that you would tell me about that last name thing..actually, I had just found that out somewhere else, believe it or not! But..actually, I will be bringing Yaten and Taiki into the story, and I really didn't want anyone to get confused by everyone being named Kou, know what I mean? ^^ Okie, now that that's cleared up, on w/ the story!]





Seiya was awoken by someone shaking him.

"Nani?!" Seiya yelled, because he had been scared awake.

A loud thunderclap pierced the silence and Seiya let out a yelp of surprise. He sat up and looked up. He saw Usagi standing next to him. Seiya was so surprised at her being there that he rolled off the bed and landed on the floor.

"Seiya-san!" Usagi ran over to him. "Ogenki deska?"

"I'm okay," Seiya mumbled as Usagi helped him get up off of the floor.

Another thunderclap sounded and Usagi screamed.

"Seiya-san! What is that noise, and that light?" She grabbed onto his arm.

"That's thunder and lightning, don't worry, it won't hurt you." Seiya smiled.

"Oh Seiya-san, it's so scary!" Usagi looked up at him, and she was crying.

"Don't cry!" Seiya smiled at her. "You can stay in my room until the storm is over, then you can go back to sleep, okay?" Seiya stroked her blonde hair.

"Okay, Seiya-san."

Seiya sat on his bed and Usagi sat down beside him. They sat there in silence and Seiya held Usagi's hand. Everything a thunderclap sounded, Usagi jumped, and then Seiya squeezed her hand.

Soon it got later, and Seiya laid down on his bed, and Usagi laid down next to him. The Thunderstorm was still going on, so Seiya still held onto her hand. Very soon Usagi drifted off to sleep.

Seiya realized she was asleep when a thunderclap sounded and she didn't jump. He relaxed against his pillows and tried to fight sleep himself. He let go of Usagi's hand and picked her up off of the bed and carried her back into her room. He laid her down gently on the bed, and then covered her up. He went over to the vase that was on her end table and took out a red rose and placed it on the pillow on the other side of the bed. He started to leave the room, but turned around and stared for a moment at his Yellow Haired Goddess and smiled to himself.

*'She does look peaceful while she's sleeping, almost like an angel.'* He shut the door quietly and went to his bed. When he got underneath his covers, he immediately fell asleep.

*** When Usagi woke up that morning, she realized she was in her own room. She rubbed her eyes and sat up in bed. *'Why am I in my room? Oh, I must have fallen asleep and Seiya-san must've brought me back here.'*

Usagi blushed a little as she though of Seiya. Usagi stood up and stretched. She went into the closet and pulled out a green dress. She put it on, and the she looked into her mirror. She grabbed a hairbrush that was on a dressing table and she brushed her hair until it shone.

Usagi couldn't help thinking that she used to do something to her hair, something that kept it up. She reached for a hair tie and put it in a braid and wrapped the braid up into a bun.

*'That looks okay, I guess.'* Usagi smiled at her reflection in the mirror. She turned around to make up her bed, and saw that there was a red rose on the pillow of the other side of the bed. She picked up the flower and smelled it.

*'Oh! A red rose, I seem to remember a rose . . .from something. I just don't know what. It was so sweet of Seiya-san to put it there.'* Usagi went back to the mirror and put the rose in her bun. She turned around in a circle and smiled. Then she made up her bed and left her room.

When Usagi stepped outside, she heard two servant girls talking.

"Ojisama Seiya is still sleeping, do you think he's sick?"

"I hope not! Maybe that alien girl he was with got him sick!"

"How awful!"

Usagi scowled at the things she was hearing the girls saying. She went to Seiya's door and knocked three times.

There was no answer, so she decided to open the door.

"Seiya-san?" She entered the bright and sunny room, and she spotted Seiya sleeping on his bed. She smiled to herself.

"Seiya-san?" Usagi said a little louder as she shut the door behind her.

"Nani?" A sleepy voice answered.

"Ohayo gozimasu!" Usagi grinned.

"It's morning already?" Seiya sat up straight. His hair had been taken down and it was in tangles and stuck up all over the place. He looked at Usagi and smiled.

"Kirro Maiden, you're not supposed to go into a Prince's room." He grinned.

Usagi started to blush. "Gomenasai, Seiya-san."

"It's okay, I don't mind." He stood up and stretched. "It's about time for me to wake up anyway." He looked at himself in the mirror. "Sorry about my appearance, you know how people look like after they wake up, ne?"

"Hai, I know." Usagi looked up at Seiya. "I'll go and wait in my room, and when you're done getting ready, you can come and get me, okay?"

"Okay." Seiya smiled.

"Ja ne!" Usagi left Seiya's room and shut the door.

Seiya shook his head at Usagi. *'She's so innocent, she never expects that anyone would think things about a girl going into a Prince's room. I suppose that it is all for the best though.'* Seiya went into his closet and put on his proper attire, and tied his hair up in a ponytail. He placed his sword at his belt and then left his room.

He walked down the hallway and knocked on Usagi's door.

"Just a minute!" Usagi came to the door smiling, and answered it.

"Ohayo!" Seiya waved.

"Ohayo, Seiya-san." Usagi came out of her room and shut the door behind her. "What are we going to do today?"

"Well, I still have to finish showing you around, and then I thought we could get some lunch, how does that sound?"

"That sounds fine!" Usagi grinned.

"Okay then!" Seiya led Usagi off to finish her tour of the palace. Once Seiya and Usagi finished their tour of the palace, Seiya stopped by the kitchen.

"Kirro Maiden, why don't you wait outside and I'll get us some lunch, okay?" Seiya had his hand on the doorknob of the kitchen.

"Alright Seiya-san." Usagi stood outside and waited patiently.

A few minutes had passed and Seiya came out of the door with a basket.

"What's that for, Seiya-san?" Usagi looked at the basket.

"It's our lunch, Kirro Maiden." Seiya smiled.

"Oh, but why is it in a basket, don't we need to use plates for food?"

Seiya let out a loud laugh. "Not if you're going to be eating a picnic lunch!" He poked her nose gently.

"What's a picnic?" She looked up at him with her innocent eyes.

"You'll see."
