Christmas Morning

Chibiusa's red eyes fluttered open. Light shimmered down from a tall cathedral glass window on to her and she tried to block it with her hand until she got use to the brightness. She felt the spot on the bed next to her. No one there. Was last night all a sweet dream? She pulled the white sheets up to her neck and looked up. There was mistletoe hanging above her bed. She gave a deep sigh and closed her eyes. It must have been a dream. I really didn't get married last night. Oh, how I wished I did.

"Good morning, young maiden." Chibiusa excitedly opened her eyes. Elios slipped on to the bed and brushed a strand of long pink hair away from her face. It wasn't a dream.

She stretched her arms above her head and yawned, "You can't call me maiden anymore. I'm married."

He smiled, "That's right." He brought his face closer to hers. Light blue hair lightly tickled her cheeks. "Good morning my love." He teasingly brushed her lips then kissed her deeply. When he released her lips, he spoke softly into her ear, "Merry Christmas."
