Confessions
Mya paced back and forth in the lounge that had been designated to the children of the palace. AJ could swear that he saw a path beginning to wear in the white carpet. "Mya why don't you sit down? You have been doing that for three hours now and it isn't going to make her come back any faster."
Mya stopped pacing and starred at her boyfriend for a moment before reluctantly sitting down beside Kylie. "You aren't the only one who misses her Mya, but it isn't that boring without her around here." The three of them turned to see Sean standing in the doorway. They almost fell over at the sight of him.
Sean and Seth were Mina's twin sons. Both had been away at school for quite sometime. Seth had been missed but Sean was a different story. He was the darker of the twins and was always causing trouble around the palace. It probably didn't help that he was never really part of the group of friends, and that wasn't because he was three years older, it was mainly due to the fact that he was just mean sometimes.
Seth was one of the nicest people you could meet, but with Sean it always depended on his mood. Kylie remembered that her mother always related it to the fact that their father had not always been sure which side of good or evil he was on. Mina had met the man shortly after they had defeated Chaos and she really didn't know that much about him. Right after the boys were born he left, or so they say.
"Well she seems to get an awful lot of your attention when she is here Sean." Mya retorted. She openly despised Sean, but like Sky, Mya never was one to care for consequences. This comment got the attention of everyone.
Sean secretly wanted Sky. He had been interested in her since he had come back from boarding school the year Sky turned fourteen. He had done well to keep it under wraps from all the adults, but there was nothing you kept from someone's best friends. There had been one time that Sean had cornered her and tried to threaten her into dating him. However, when Seth had found out he almost killed Sean.
Sean scaled at Mya, "Well I bet poor little Mya can't function without her leader." He walked over to the nearest couch and sat down. "The scary thing is that poor little Sky is out there all by her self unprotected." Sean said as started to get a grin on his face.
His jet-black hair made his blue eyes look black against his pale skin and black clothes. Mya was interrupted from the comment she was about to make by Seth walking into the room, "Hey everyone. How are you guys doing? It really sucks that Sky ran off huh?" he said as he hugged everyone. They all welcomed Seth home with open arms. Even though he looked just like his brother, they were nothing alike.
"What brings you two home?" AJ asked.
"Oh we had some days saved up so I decided to come home for a little while and Sean decided to tag along." Seth answered. "Hey, so how is aunt Serena doing with Sky being gone so far?"
--------
Serena stood on her balcony looking out over the city and up at the moon. She felt her symbol glow and an extreme positive energy increase. 'Sky has transformed!' she thought as panic slowly seeped into her being.
"You shouldn't look so stressed your highness." Serena turned to see Rye standing there. Rye smiled at her and walked over to her side to look out at the view. "She has transformed. I see the panic in our eyes." Rye laid her hand over Serena's, "As we have said before she will be fine."
Serena smiled at her friend, "I know, and I have faith in her. I just wish she would come home. Something tells me that she needed to do this for some unknown reason that will effect her future. I have decided not to punish her when she gets home." Rye looked at Serena in surprise. Serena grinned, "Well I look at it this way, we got into much worse things when we younger than her. Sneaking out of the house at night to go fight evil and all that. This was to be expected from her right? I am not saying that she doesn't have to understand the risks at hand, but she is grown and needs to be ready for what might lay ahead when she is queen. Sometimes I fear that I made a mistake and sent the wrong daughter to the past for experience. Rini will come back knowing all that she can expect from the world of evil, not that Sky doesn't have an idea but she has never really been in a very large battle."
"Serena you know better than that. If push came to shove then Sky would be ready for whatever came her way. She has been trained by all of us most of her life and she knows what to do. Is this what you have been worried about?" Rye asked.
"Well it was just a thought. Sometimes Sky just doesn't seem interested in things that she should be and I worry." Serena breathed in sharply, and then released a sigh; "She is back to normal." She and Rye smiled at each other.

"Who would have guessed that the girl was really the princess?" Heldi commented as they all sat on a shuttle bound for earth.
"It actually does sound like something she would do. Sky is a very resourceful girl, and talented to boot. I just hate to see what kind of punishment she will get when she gets home. That is after her parents get over the initial shock of getting her home." Relena said as she turned a page in her magazine.
"Speaking of Sky, where is she at the moment?" Qautre asked. "She is in the back with Herro. They are watching after Gem. I would imagine she is pretty tired so lets just leave them alone." Noin's voice came from the hallway she had just walked up.
---
Sky exited the shower to find Herro sitting in a chair facing the glass door behind which Gem lie. Her hair was soaking wet, and the clothes Relena had let her barrow were getting wet in the process. She towel dried her hair the best that she could then hung the towel up.
Herro turned to look at her when he heard her walking his way. She smiled a kind of smile that he had never seen her give before. Like that one smile was reserved for him. Sky sat in the chair opposite from him and looked at him with curious eyes. He had that mysterious look on his face again, "And just what are you thinking?" she asked.
The question caught him off guard, "Umm...What your parents might do to you when you get home." Sky waved off the comment, "Trust me I would rather suffer their punishment than have to take it from Luna. There is only one thing my parents could do to me that I think I would not be able to handle and they wont so I am not worried."
He smirked, "Confident aren't we? Be careful pride comes before a very big fall. I learnt that the hard way."
Sky grinned at him. She leaned back in the chair and crossed her arms, "And just what do you mean by that Mr. Yuy? May I also add that this is the most casual conversation we have had since we met? You should really be open like this more often." She paused for a second, "You do know that I was being sarcastic because you still haven't said that much. Oh my goodness listen to me I am rambling." Her hand shot up to her mouth.
Herro sat there silently before bursting into laughter. It wasn't so much that she had said anything funny, but the way she reacted to her own actions. Seeing him laugh made her laugh too. When she opened her eyes again Herro was starring into her eyes. He slowly reached up and grabbed her hand.
He could feel her shaking slightly as he interlocked his fingers with hers, and it made him smile slightly. He always did like making people nervous. When he looked back into her eyes they were filled with silent tears. Herro was immediately confused. "What did I do?" he asked with his usual tone of voice.
Sky laughed slightly, "Nothing Herro. That is just it, things seem to good to be true. I mean I always expected to fall in love but it hit me by surprise." Herro froze at the word, 'Love'. He was by no means scared to love, but he wasn't sure if he was capable of such a thing. He had been trained to be a killer and often questioned himself when he had been with Relena. He remembered the reasoning that had allowed him to think him self-capable of love the first time.
As he thought Sky began to talk. "I know you aren't a very open person, and that your training involved hiding all emotion. I am not asking you to change for me, I wouldn't dare do that, but I do want you to know that I think I love you. I am not to sure what comes with this at the moment because I know you are out with the Preventors a lot, but I am willing to find out." 'Seesh, I know I must sound so stupid but I don't know how to get these stupid emotions out!' she thought to herself.
While she was talking Herro made up his mind, "I love you." Sky quit talking right then and more tears fell. "To tell you the truth I think I might have always loved you, or at least been curious. Before I met you I would see pictures up on advertisement screens, or hanging somewhere, and I would get caught in this daze by your eyes. Then I met you and you still caught my attention, and time with you wouldn't allow the thoughts and feelings that I was trying to get rid of leave."
Sky almost passed out. She hadn't thought it possible for him to show emotion, let alone voice.
Herro pulled her close to him and starred into her eyes for along time before kissing her. When he pulled back they felt the shuttle land. "We are home." Herro whispered in her ear. Sky felt the butterflies her stomach ruffle their wings as she smile up at him.
Little did they know that behind the glass door Gem had woken up and was observing everything said, and everything that happened. Just on the chance that he could find someone who wanted to help him get out of his current situation.
