Here is the second chapter of, When Lights Die Down, I hope that you all like it. This is going to be my last update for some time, (on this story,) school starts soon and I have Kumori-Con to contend with. Please don't hate me.
I don't own Sailor Moon. Though I want the three sexy men known as the Starlights. shrugs>

The years passed by, Seiya threw himself into his music even more. Taiki, Yaten and Kakyuu were worried, Kakyuu especially, since he was her little brother. They had been on tour on and off for five years. But, Seiya made it clear, they were never to return to Osaka. The other three didn't protest, but their manager began to throw a fit. But, when he saw the look of hatred in Seiya's sapphire eyes, he backed off.
Now the group where on their way to Tokyo, to finish their long tour and take a much deserved break.
---
Seiya sat staring out the window, his eyes distant.
Kakyuu looked at her younger brother, and sighed. He didn't know how many times she had heard him wake up in the middle of the night, that girl's name coming from his mouth. She knew what he had done. He had let his true love slip through his fingers. She wanted to comfort him, but knew he would just blow her off.
"Don't worry. Maybe the break is what he needs." Taiki put his hand on Kakyuu's shoulder.
"I truly hope so."
---
"Seiya!"
"Taiki!"
"Yaten!"
"Kakyuu!"
"We love you!"
The group of four ignored the cries of empty devotion and moved back stage after their final song. They split and went to do their separate things, Taiki to read a book of poetry, Yaten to sketch the city, Kakyuu to finish her clothing designs, and Seiya to mourn what he lost. This had been their routine for a long time. It wasn't that they where on the outs with each other. It was just that, no one knew how to talk to Seiya anymore. So, they just did what they wanted and ignored the youngest member of 'The Starlights.' He wasn't complaining.

"Seiya?"
Turning his sapphire blue eyes upward, he gasped. "Odango."
"Hi."
"How are you?"
The blonde haired woman sat next to the midnight haired man. "I'm fine." Usagi folded her hands in her lap.
"You married?" Seiya asked noticing the ring on her left hand.
"No, engaged."
"Is he nice?"
"The nicest."
"Does he love you?"
"With all his heart."
Seiya nodded and sighed. She was going to get away for good this time, and there was nothing that he could do about it. Usagi would laugh at him if he told her the truth.
"I'm going to go say hi to everyone else."
"Alright."
Seiya watched as Usagi got up and walked away. He then noticed that a little girl about four, maybe five, followed after her. He raised an eyebrow, trying to figure out if she was babysitting, or the kid was her own.
---
"Is she yours?"
Usagi nodded and picked up the little girl. "Yes, she's almost five years old."
"Is she Seiya's child?"
"How…?"
"I could recognize those eyes anywhere."
Usagi looked at her daughter, to Seiya and then to Kakyuu. "Don't tell him."
"He loves you."
"Don't be silly."
"Why didn't you tell him about your daughter?"
"He's a famous star. He doesn't need a kid following him around."
Kakyuu sighed and shook her head. "Usagi, he's broken. He spends his days moping about. Mourning you."
"I can't. I have a fiancée now." Usagi got up and headed towards the door.
"Think about it Usagi. Do you want to be unhappy for the rest of your life?"
The blonde stopped in her tracks. She turned and looked back at Seiya. Shaking her head, she left the theatre.
Kakyuu looked at her younger brother. She could see how hurt he was. "Seiya…" She whispered softly.
---
Usagi sat in her car, tears rolling down her face. She stared at her ring, and then looked at her daughter.
"Mommy!"
"Yes?"
"I wanna see Daddy!"
"We can't see your Daddy."
"Why?"
"Mommy hurt him."
"How?"
"I'm getting married."
"Not to Daddy?"
"Not to Daddy."
"Why?"
"Marina! Enough!" Usagi snapped, the tears rolling down her face harder.
The little girl's lower lip quivered and she began to cry.
---
"Seiya…"
"What?"
"That little girl…"
"What about her?"
"She's your child."
Seiya looked at his older sister. "What?"
"You heard me."
"It can't be!"
"Seiya."
"What am I supposed to do about it, if the child is min? She's getting married!"
"You can always object at the wedding." Kakyuu handed him an invitation.
Seiya took it and stared at it, his eyes wide. "You're not serious? Are you?"
"I'm dead serious."
Standing up, the midnight haired man nodded. "Sis, you're right."
"I know. I'm always right."
"Shut-up."
Kakyuu smacked Seiya on the back of his head. "Don't tell me to shut-up."
Seiya grumbled and walked away.

There are two really special people I need to thank.
SailorStarHealer88 - She's always reviewing my stuff and seems to enjoy my writing. I thank her quite a bit. If you're a fan of Seiya/Yaten yummyness, check out Book of the Stars: Starlight Memories. It may not seem like it now, but that's a huge Seiya/Yaten story.
MoonDaisuki - For being an awesome friend in my personal life. She reads my stuff and tells me if it makes sense or not. Thanks a zillion!
Remember, R&R!
