In Kinmoku

The Starlight are all sitting at the Dining Table with their Princess..

Yaten: "Im so happy to be back! We really missed our home and you princess."

Princess Kakyuu: "I missed you too my stars.. Im so happy to be home already.. you 3 have done a great job in redoing our kingdom.. it looks even better than before."

Taiki: "I Agree!"

Princess Kakyuu: "Seiya, are you ok? You havent touched your food and seem down, whats wrong my precious star?"

Yaten: "We believe Seiya boy got struck with an arrow of love and is sad he cant be with his Odango!"

Seiya: "SHUT UP! You dont know anything, you should learn to mind your own business! Leave me the hell alone!" with that Seiya stomped out of the room leaving Yaten, Taiki and Princess Kakyuu shocked.

Princess Kakyuu: "What was that all about?"

Taiki: "Princess its a long story, and Yaten I told you not to tease Seiya like that, you know he is upset and you go and upset him more!"

Yaten: "Oh please Seiya has to move on, he shouldnt dwell where he doesnt belong!"

Taiki: "How would you feel if you fell in love with someone and that person cant be with you because she is tied to someone she must be with forever?"

Yaten: "I uh.."

Princess Kakyuu: "Seiya in love? with who?"

Taiki: "Seiya fell in love with Usagi, princess.. that is why he is down.. "

Yaten: "Down? He is upset.. didnt you see his attitude?"

Taiki: "You deserved it!"

Yaten: "Oh shut up!"

Taiki: "No you Shu--"

Princess Kakyuu: "Enough boys, Leave Seiya alone, he needs some time to heal, poor boy has to go through alot, he will suffer either way."

Yaten and Taiki: "Either way? Princess what do you mean?"

Princess Kakyuu: "Nothing forget what I said.." she stands up and goes to her chambers.

Yaten: "That was odd."

Taiki: "Yes it was."

Meanwhile..

Seiya is walking in the gardens.. thinking to himself.. 'Oh Odango, how can I get you off my head? its been only a month since we left Earth and I feel like its been years. Oh my Odango. I wonder if you think of me..'

Taiki: "Hey Seiya, are you alright."

Seiya: "Yes, im fine."

Taiki: "You dont look like it.. want to talk about it?"

Seiya: "You wouldnt understand.. "

Taiki: "Give me a try.."

Seiya: *sighs* "I cant stop thinking about her, now she has her boyfriend, she must be super happy and im here being an idiot, sobbing for her! I cant get her off my mind! Taiki I dont know what to do anymore!"

Taiki: *pats Seiya on the back* "You love her that much?"

Seiya nods.

Taiki: "You know her future is with Mamoru.. thats her future you cant change that. I think its best you meet other girls, you might fall in love again, and Usagi would be someone you will have in your heart but someone that simply cant be."

Seiya: "I know your right, but I cant help it.. I just cant get her off-"

Taiki: "You havent even tried." hmm "How about you go out tonight with me and Yaten, we are going to this Fair, get those troubles out of your mind.. what do you say?"

Seiya: "I dont know.. I dont feel like --"

Taiki: "Come on, it will be fun."

Seiya: "Ok fine!"

Taiki: "Alright ill meet you at the gates at 7. See you then.. and stop thinking about Odango, and put a smile on that face. You really look ugly with a frown."

Seiya: "Oh thank you Tai.. see you later."

Taiki: "Later."

Seiya just sat there taking in all that was said.. 'stop thinking about her, smile, its best you meet other girls.. how can i?' sighs and gets up and leaves to his room to get ready for tonights event.

*******************************************************************************************

Later that Night...

Taiki and Yaten are waiting for Yaten at the gate..

Yaten: "You really think he'll come?"

Taiki: "Im sure.. "

Yaten: "I dont think he will--"

Taiki: "There he is."

Seiya approaches them..

Seiya: "Hi guys sorry for being late, I just fell asleep and didnt realise the time."

Yaten: "Same old Seiya.. always being lazy.."

Seiya: "Oh please, like you arent Yaten?"

Yaten: "I am--"

Taiki: "Stop it you two, we are going out to have some fun now shut up and lets go"

They all leave for the Fair.

*******************************************************************************************

At the Fair.

Taiki: "Wow this place looks good this year."

Yaten: "Ahh there are the ladies, see you around guys!"

Seiya: "Oh please like theyll be interest in a short guy like you.."

Yaten: "Oh Shut up!! You think your--"

Taiki: "Yaten and Seiya shut up! Yaten go to your ladies!"

Yaten takes his tongue out at Seiya, Seiya does the same.. Yaten walks away ..

Taiki: "So what do you want to do."

Seiya: "I dont know,you brought me here."

Taiki: "Yes. Hmm Ill be right back im going to get something to drink."

Seiya: "Alright .. im going to go sit by those benches."

Seiya sits down by the benches.. looks around suddenly a young girl sits stands next to him..

Girl: "Is this seat taken?"

Seiya: "No go ahead." He looks up at her and is suprised by her beauty. She has dark brown curly hair that reach up to her shoulders, with grayish green eyes, and has the most amazing lips he's ever seen, she was wearing a black sleeve-less top that fit her body smoothly and a jean mini skirt, she had amazing legs. Seiya realised he had been staring and looked away.

Girl: "Hi im Nicole.. nice event tonight eh?"

Seiya: "Hi Nicole, Im Seiya, indeed a beautiful event."

Nicole: "So are you alone?"

Seiya: "No my friend Taiki and Yaten are around somewhere.."

Nicole: "Oh, sweet. My friend Carly and Sandy are with me, but one went to dance and the other went to get a drink."

Seiya: "Oh. My friend Taiki went to get a drink too."

Nicole: "Sweet. So why are you sitting here all alone?"

Seiya: "I could ask you the same.. but Im here waiting for my friend."

Nicole: "Oh Im just a bit tired my friend dragged me to this event to take my mind off problems.. I hate going to these types of events but they insisted so here I am."

Seiya: "Wow what a coincidence, I too was dragged here, Taiki suggested I get things off my mind as well so he brought me here."

Nicole: laughed "Oh great, we have so much in common!"

He laugh was glorious.. for the first time in life, Seiya didnt think about Usagi. He was enjoying Nicole's company. He mentally said to himself. ' Taiki was right, meeting someone new can get her off my mind'

*******************************************************************************************

Months passed and Seiya and Nicole became good friends, they spent alot of time together. Nicole had secretly got a crush on Seiya but she didnt want to say anything in fear of being rejected. Seiya had feelings for her but he wasnt sure because he still loved his Odango but he knew that had to end so he decided to let his feelings flow and forget about Usagi.

Nicole: "Whats up Seiya why so quiet?"

Seiya: "Oh nothing, I was just thinking about some old friends."

Nicole: "The Scouts in Earth?"

Seiya: "Yes, them. Like I told you before, We had gone to Earth to find our princess and we met them, they are really nice girls. each with a unique personality."

Nicole: giggled "Would be nice to meet them one day.. they sound like sweet girls."

Seiya: "Yeah..They are, especially--"

Taiki interrupted their conversation.

Taiki: "Hey Seiya, Princess Kakyuu is asking for you.. she needs to talk to you."

Seiya: "Oh ok Thank You Taiki.. ill be right over.." to Nicole, "Im sorry, Ill see you in a bit, I have to go see what the princess needs me for? ok?"

Nicole: "Sure thing, Ill be around. See you!"

Seiya ran to the Princess Chambers when he got there he fixed his suit and knocked on her door.

Voice inside: "Come in."

Seiya: "Princess you called for me?"

Princess Kakyuu: "Yes Seiya, I did.. i need to speak with you. Come in sit down."

Seiya: "Alright.. what do you need to speak about?"

Princess Kakyuu: "Seiya, Ive noticed you spend alot of time with Nicole.. I was wondering what you felt about her."

Seiya was surprised to hear this from his princess.

Seiya: "Feelings? we are good friends.. why princess?"

Princess Kakyuu: "Seiya, you can be honest with me Im not going to yell at you, I was just wondering.. because I think Nicole is in love with you." She smiled.

Princess Kakyuu: "Its time for you to be happy, and I have a feeling this girl makes you happy.. am i right?"

Seiya: "Yes she is a fun person to be around.. Your right, im going to talk with her."

Princess Kakyuu: smiling "Good Luck my star. let me know how it goes."

Seiya walks out of her room and goes to the Garden were he found Nicole sitting in the same bench.. he walks up to her and says..

Seiya: "Yes they are beautiful, but not as beautiful as you.."

Nicole blushed at his comment.

Seiya: "Nicole, I been meaning to ask you."

Nicole: "Yes Seiya?"

Seiya looked into her eyes. 'I will forget you Odango, Im sorry, but I dont want to be sad anymore.' he said mentally.

Seiya: "We've been friends for a long time now, and I get alone with you so well, I love hanging out with you, Nicole, what do you feel about me?"

Nicole: *blushing* "Oh Seiya, I love spending time with you too, and I.. Ok i have to stop being shy.. but Seiya I do have feelings for you, since the day I met you."

Nicole: "Oh my God really?"

Seiya: "Yes Nicole.. do you want to be my girlfriend."

Nicole: "Yes, I do Seiya. Yes Yes Yes."

Nicole hugged Seiya and Seiya hugged her back. Nicole couldnt contain herslf and she looked up into Seiya eyes, and moved in for a Kiss..

Seiya kissed Nicole, their kiss was deep but something told Seiya this wasnt right, but he denyed it and told himself this is the right thing to do ..
