Okay peeps.nothing to say at this moment. Reviews are welcome. (That was a hint!!!!)

EARLIER THE SAME DAY (as Seyia and Lucretia's date):



Serena was about ready to crack. She was extremely annoyed, to say the least.

She had been running around in circles because of Relena. That spoiled brat was constantly sending her on and errand and sometimes even on a wild goose chase.

It was making her extremely mad.

^^^^^^^^^^

Heero sighed. Relena was treating Serena horribly. The only reason she was doing this was because Serena hadn't given her a note that she had taken down, though Relena didn't know that Serena had only just gotten off the phone when she had seen the note on Serena's desk.

~Relena is way out of line with this.~ He thought as he rubbed his throbbing head.

^^^^^^^^^^

Endymione watched the petite blonde work hard for or because of Relena.

He smirked and paid closer attention as she bent over, placing folders and papers in their right spot.

She stood up again and sighed. She pulled her chair over to the cabinet and started to grumble about her height. She opened the top drawer and continued grumbling as she stood on her toes to reach the place were the file went.

He smirked.

"Need any help?" He said seductively.

Serena turned around in surprise. "No." She said flatly when she saw who it was.

Endymione looked shocked. ~She doesn't even know who I am.~ He quickly shook it off as all Relena's fault.

"Oh come on.you really look stressed out.perhaps I could rub your shoulders for you."

"No." She said and continued to work



^^^Four hours later^^^



"Come on sweetie.you and I could go out for a café latte."

Serena was desperately seeking something to stab him with, but not finding anything that was sharp enough.or even dull enough for her tastes. ~If it's dull, maybe it will do more damage.~ She thought wildly.

Heero had been sitting in his office, trying to fill out paperwork, but having no such luck due to the fact that Endymione wouldn't leave Serena alone and he could hear every word.

He was planning on going in there and giving her his gun, but thought better of it. He had a plan and it would shoot Endymione down faster than a bullet would.

He smiled when he saw the clock. It was ten after five. Serena had been so busy trying to give the guy a clue that she hadn't seen that she was ten minutes overtime.

Heero shut his computer down and picked up his jacket and stuck his gun in only God knows where. (a/n: He just pulls that sucker out of nowhere at times.)

When he came out of his office, Serena was seeking for something in her desk. ~Probably something to kill him with.~

Endymione had stopped talking and was just watching her.or rather, her exposed calf muscle.

Heero paid no attention to him and went over to Serena.

Serena looked up in time to see Heero approaching her with an odd glint in his eyes. (A/n: I should think that him with a glint at all would be odd.but anyway.)

She stood up and was about to ask if she could borrow his gun for a minute.she had the perfect place for the body: a sub-space pocket.of which no return was possible.dead or alive.

Heero caught her up by her waist and kissed her deeply, letting his tongue caress her mouth.

It wasn't long until Serena started to kiss back, her arms wrapping around his neck, bringing him closer.

Warmth was spreading from her heart outwards. The lights had dimmed and her head felt fuzzy.

Her fingers spread into his hair and gently began to massage his head.

Heero ran his hands up her back, loving the feel of her so close to him.

A small golden light, not big enough for Endymione to notice, joined her heart to his.

**

"Darling." he whispered into her ear from behind her, making her jump. They were standing on her balcony.

"My love," she whispered as she hugged him close to her. She began to cry.

"What is it?" he whispered, not knowing what was wrong with her.

"My mother says that I must marry Prince Endymione of Earth.I can't marry him.I love you!"

He held her closer, not wanting to lose her.

"We could run away together!" She suddenly said and began babbling about places they could hide.

"No.Serenity. We're going to have to face this problem. You can't run and hide from your problems.they'll only just catch up with you. We have to fight this here." He whispered and hugged her closer.

Serenity began to cry harder into his chest. "We can't fight this.my mother is too strong.going against her is treason!! You can't become a traitor to the moon! You'll die.or be exiled. I can't live without you.I know my mother, she won't kill me.maybe she'll exile us both though." She said wildly. Images of his death and her mother's face flashed in her mind. "I don't want to live without you. I know I won't be able to."

He held her close. "Love will find a way.I came to tell you that I've been called to battle. I love you. Don't worry.everything will be alright in the end." He said and kissed her, sealing the promise.

**

Serena and Heero just stared at each other for a few minutes, neither knowing what to say or do.

"Let's get out of here." She whispered, suddenly remembering Endymione.

Heero smiled. (A/N: Good Lord!! We're all gonna die!! Heero Yui smiled!!!!! ...........Back to the story.)"Yeah."

He took her hand after she grabbed her purse from under her desk.

They walked out of the office, leaving a very irritated and shocked Endymione.



%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%



Heero and Serena both sat in the park in a solemn mood.

Serena could tell that he was deeply shocked and confused at their memories.

Wanting to lighten the mood, she let out a laughed. "Who'd have thunk it."

Heero looked at her, not understanding.

"Heero Yui can kiss.though in the movies, the strong silent type usually make the best lovers." She said, giving him a smile.

He smirked and shook his head.

"We have to talk about this." She said quietly.

Heero looked away, as if in agreement and yet, as if in rejection.

Serena sighed, feeling hurt and exited and confused all at once.

"What's there to talk about? We were in love on the Moon Kingdom.that's that."

Serena looked down, her heart broken. "Oh.I see.feelings change. Time makes things different." She got up and began to walk away.

She was near tears and the edge of the park when she was suddenly turned around to see Heero staring into her eyes. He held her arms at her sides with a vise-like grip with strength she hadn't known he possessed.

Serena began to push him away, not wanting him to see how much he had hurt her. But try as she might, his grip held true.

"Have they?" He whispered.

"Have they what?" She hissed out, still fighting.

"Changed." He said, making her look in his eyes.

Serena had never been one to lie while staring into someone's eyes.or lie at all. She looked away. "No."

"What makes you think that mine have then?"

She looked at him, confused. "But.but you said--"

"You never were one for thinking like me. What I meant was, what was there to say about what we both know. I love you Serena. I always did. I even loved you the first time I saw you in this time.you're long blonde hair, bright blue eyes, your innocent smile, you're kind heart. It took the memories to make me realize what I've been feeling for you, but Serena, I swear to you, my heart is yours." Heero whispered, looking into her eyes. (A/n: Okay.we didn't die earlier.but the boy TALKED!!! It's the end of time!!! ...........................Ooo-kay then.clock is still going...never mind, back to the story.)

Serena began to cry. "When I thought that you no longer loved me.I felt as though I had been killed. I love you Heero.I always have and I always will." She said and hugged him, crying into hi shoulder.

He wrapped his arms around her, letting her cry, knowing that when she thought that he didn't love her, it had hurt her more than anyone or anything ever had.
