A Love Not Rivaled

Part 3: Feelings Revealed...



~Side Walk~

'I can't tell Raye how I feel. Even if she is the one....I truly love..' Serena thinks as she is walking down the sidewalk. 'But, I HAVE to..I'll go talk to her, now.' Serena then heads in the direction of the Hikawa Shrine. Eventually, she reaches the shrine steps. She slowly makes her way up the stares, thinking about Raye.

~Hikawa Shrine~

Serena reaches the door, and stares at it for a moment, before ringing the bell. "Raye? Are you home? I need to talk to you.." Serena says. "I'm coming!" Raye says, coming to the door. She slides it open, and says, "Oh hi, Serena! I'm so glad to see you!" Raye is surprised to see Serena at her door. She had hardly spoken to anyone, lately.

"Hello!" Serena says, actually a bit cheerful. "Come In!" Says Raye, motioning for her to come inside. "Thank you." Serena says, walking in side. Raye slides the door closed behind her, and she follows Serena. They go into Raye's room, and she says, "What's on your mind Serena?" "You..." Replies Serena, "I...love you, Raye!" Raye is astonished, but happy. Her heart seemed to jump up an down, with joy. But..Was it...right? Raye just sat there. "Raye?" Asks Serena, waving a hand in front of her friends face. "Oh, I'm so Glad you feel the same way as I do, that's all..But-" Raye starts, but is interrupted by Serena putting her right pointer finger to Raye's lips. "Raye, This 'Is' what Darien would have wanted. And, he said that Rini would still be born. Isn't that enough? I love you, Raye, And that is what matters!" Serena says, then replaces her finger with her own lips to Raye's.

Raye couldn't help but fall into the kiss. They were in love! Her and her princess, were in love! Both girls savored every moment as their tongues explored each other. Finally, when the kiss breaks, Serena says, "Do you see how much I *Truly* love you, Raye?" "I'm sorry I doubted you, princess. I was just..." Raye says. "Don't worry about it. I was afraid to tell 'you' how 'I' feel, since the day you expressed your feelings for me(Through words, of course). I'd always loved you, but didn't know 'how' I could 'tell' you. And, I want to appologize. Can you give me another chance?" Serena says.

"Yes. I love you so much! I wish I had told you sooner! Oh Serena, Of course!" Raye says, in a tear-full voice. Raye was crying. Happy tears. "Thank you, Raye." Serena said, and threw her arms around the beautiful fire-senshi. "I'll be your's forever!" Serena says, and for some reason those words sounded firmiliar, somehow. Maybe from a past life, or maybe...a future life. Serena didn't know, so she just shrugged it off, not caring. At the moment, all she cared about was Raye. The raven-haired miko, in her arms.

That night, They lay in each others' arms, nothing existed but the two of them. They, soon, fell asleep in one anothers' arms...
