I do not own sailor moon. I'd love to, but I don't. Wish I did, but no such luck!

As he entered the crown arcade the very air seemed pleased with him and his impatience. Seven days have passed since he had seen her smiling face on television. He remembered the flabbergasted of look on Andrews face when he had pinned him to the floor And refused to release him until he had a revealed Usagi's plans. She was supposed To visit the crown today. Although he wanted to see the face of the woman whom he had so unconditionally loved he was afraid that she would reject him. Andrew gave him the traditional mug of dark rich coffee. It had always been intoxicating. And now he would need it more than ever.

Suddenly the room went quiet was directed at the figure in the doorway. Instantly he knew who it was. His fingers trembled as he placed the mug back on to the counter. Half of him yearned to see her to watch the sun light play with her golden hair Yet, a separate part of him was pained by the of thought that she might not give a damn about him. He forced himself to turn around. She was perfect, everything he knew she would be and so much more. Her face look like that of painted doll, her eyes were bright Yet he sensed that there was something cold about them. Her posture was not that of a young carefree girl such as the one he cherished in his memories. Instead, she seemed withdrawn from the world, as if she knew a secret that could not be revealed. She held her so with dignity her head held high the as she scan the room. And when they lit up to the proof a shade of Aqua blue, he could not help but wish that Allen had been for him.

The sound of her lap echoed that assigns flies in the wind. Hoping she had not noticed Him watching the he tore his gaze away from her as she flew into Andrew's arms. Although he knew they were just friends, he couldn't help but be jealous as her arms held Andrew in a friendly embrace..

"Andrew you look great! I've missed you!" she told the fawn haired man happily.

" I'm glad to see you to Sere," he responded. " Here, sit down, and I will make you a chocolate. Like the ones he used the love so much ."

"Thanks Andrew, " she said happily.

As she said in the seat, Waiting for and to finish, her I still didn't to the corner she remembered Darien at always sat in. and she was struck by the force of memorable stormy blue eyes. He was sitting there just as she had remembered him. Suddenly, she felt like the young girl that was locked away the inside her heart, wanting to be set free..

"Darien?" she asked onshore if the figure was truly the man that had been Her arch nemesis so many years ago. After several minutes of silence here is funded.

"Usa." And the silence continued. The air was full of tension.

"How are you?" She managed to ask.

"Well," he responded " How are you?"

"Well" she said back. They seemed to be unable to look away from each other's spellbinding gaze,

"Congratulations, on the wedding, I mean, " He said, shifting his eyes back to the now and the cup.

"Thank you," She responded having been freed from the spell. And quickly returned to the actual world. " I was hoping you could come," she shuffled through her purse and withdrew a Manila Colored envelope with his name Beautifully printed Across it. "I was going to give it to Andrew, here," She quickly handed it to him.

"Here you go," he gave her the light brown mixture. Then looking tentatively at Darien.

"You told him?" she asked at his guilty look.

"I really had no choice," Andrew said sheepishly, "he wouldn't let me go till I did and I had a date with Rita." he continued. Almost whining. She lacked-though we didn't really reach her eyes. " I'm glad you found me," she said. He smiled back, the fire of hope in his heart growing larger.

"Usa, I know we were never the best of friends but would you consider having dinner with me, just catching up. You know?" as he spoke his eyes were turned from her, afraid of what she might say.

A smile graced her case as she nodded her head and said yes. Only thinking that a friendly dinner would do no harm and that her heart was still safe from both her fiancé can the only man she had ever desired.
