Okay, I'm back. College life has been hard getting used to. I'm finally done with midterms and am almost done for this semester, yay! But I decided to update so that my next updation, as a Christmas (Hannukah, Kwanza, etc.) present to you all, I will post the final chapter of Moon Sisters! I should be working on this essay due next week, but whatever I have a week! Also this chapter is the day of the wedding (no the next chapter is not a epilogue) and the brides and grooms see each other and I know that is bad luck, but hey it's Sailor Moon and I say in the Sailor Moon world that myth doesn't exist. I wanted to throw in the beginning to show the everyday lives of the Sailor Scouts and everyone else, when they aren't all formal and stuff. Also thetitle of this chapter sounds like a Sailor Moon episode, does it not? Well I think it does. But anyway, here is the next chapter, enjoy!!
Disclaimer: I don't own Sailor Moon, or the song "Make Believe" from the musical Show Boat.
Moon Sisters
Chapter 15
Wedding Day Blues
I awoke one morning, two weeks had passed since Darien sang to me, and I went to my closet and took out my wedding gown. I laid the layers of white satin and lace on my bed along with my flowered veil. Today was the day of my wedding. The rehearsal went well, but when the preacher said I now pronounce you man and wife and when I kissed Craig I didn't feel anything special. It didn't feel like I was glowing, it didn't feel like it was suppose to feel, it didn't feel the way I feel when I'm with... Darien. I sighed and went to breakfast.
Breakfast was the same everyday. Serena pigging out on every dish Lita made. Mina trying not to make eye contact with Ken, Ken trying not to make eye contact with Mina. Amy and Greg talking about theories, Craig and Lizzie arguing. Lita cooking, Andrew distracting Lita from cooking, and Darien and I trying to not go further than minor chatter.
"Soooo...how are you doing?" Darien asked.
"Oh fine, fine...you?" I replied trying not to look into his beautiful eyes.
"Same, same." We both sighed and began to eat.
Mina tried to get into Amy and Greg's conversation.
"Really Greg how can you think that the universe is open, it is definitely closed, there will be another big bang to start the cycle all over again." Amy said. Greg shook his head,
"No, no, Amy the universe goes on forever, there is no evidence to prove that the universe is closed all the evidence points to a open universe." The both looked at Mina.
"What do you think Mina," Amy asked, "I think that the universe is closed and Greg thinks it is open." Mina had a huge sweat drop on her head as she laughed and said,
"Um.. EMC2." Amy and Greg both anime fell. Meanwhile Ken was trying to calm the fight between Crag and Lizzie,
"Guys you know you should really talk this out like adults." They both paid no attention to him. Craig shouted,
"I don't want him hanging around you!" Lizzie gasped,
"How dare you tell me who I can and can't see, I am eighteen years old and I can see Damien if I want to!" Craig fumed,
"I'm older!" Lizzie scoffed,
"By two minutes!" Amy and Greg started getting violent and Mina tried to calm them down while Ken tried to stop Lizzie and Craig from hitting each other. Suddenly at the same time Amy swung her arm back and hit Mina and Lizzie hit Ken. When the two group realized what they did they looked at the two and noticed that since they hit them so hard their heads flew sideways and they were now were in a lip lock. Amy, Greg, and Craig blushed as Lizzie whooped,
"Woo hoo! Go Mina and Ken!" Both Mina and Ken's eyes were wide in shock. Later they used shock as their excuse from not stopping the kiss for a few minutes, but that was only partly true. Everyone then started to laugh, at that time Darien leaned in towards my ear and whispered,
"Meet me by the red rose bush in the garden after breakfast, I have to tell you something" I nodded.
When I got to the rose bush Darien was nowhere to be seen. Then I heard a sound behind me and I saw a dark figure. I turned around and let out a quiet shriek, then I let out a breath,
"Darien, don't do that." He held out a single red rose,
"For you." I took it in my hand and said,
"Darien, it's beautiful, but you shouldn't have." He sighed and said,
"Well what I wanted to tell you is, well actually I wanted to ask you something." I was confused about what he was talking about until he started going down on one knee as he took my left hand and I shook my head again and again as I whispered,
"No, Darien, no, please don't." He hushed me and took a deep breath,
"Raye, I love you with all my heart. I love you more that I ever have or ever will love anyone." He reached in his pocket and pulled out a small box and opened it to reveal a crescent moon made of diamonds on a silver band, "Raye, will you marry me?" I cried into my hands as I saw those beautiful eyes begging and pleading for me to say yes, but all I could say was,
"I'm sorry Darien, but I can't. I don't want to hurt Serena and Craig. Serena loves you more that life itself. I want her to be happy." He stood up and put the box back in his pocket,
"Well if you won't marry me, may I at least have this dance?" He held out his hand to me. I put my hand in his,
"Sure, but Darien, there's no music." He smiled and said,
"I know, but I want to sing you a song that makes me think about you and me." He held me close and I shut my eyes and he whispered,
We could make believe I love you
Only make believe you love me too
Mine as well make believe I love you.
For to tell the truth I do.
Ahhhh!! I know short chapter, but the next chapter is much longer! So please R&R everyone, I heart you all and am sorry if I kept you all waiting!
