"B-b-but..hOw?" Small lady asked now so confused.But before Helios replied her father came up behind her and put his arm around her.
"I will explain everything in the morning.But fornow please enjoy your speacial guest."he told her.Then everyone went back to the party.
The children went back to the room to chat.
" so what's your name?" they asked.So he told them, and about small lady and him and how they had met.
After everyone left the party,the princess showed helios to his room.
"but I still dont understand." she told him as they walked.
"Like your father said,everything will be explained in the morning.We don't want to overload you with information.And for now it's good to
realax"
They stoped at the door and looked at eacher.Helios lowers his face to her, and was,what felt like milimiters away.When
small lady was sure he was going to kiss her,he only whispered
"goodnight..." and walked into his room.Even after the door was closed,she tood there.Waiting for her heart to start again.
The next morning
The next morning,the princess woke to the same ol' smell,same birds chirping,same old same old.Only this time she was extreamly excited.
She ran to her closet and picked out her favorite dress. Then the after fully dressed and cleaned she went to the mirror and
Smoothed her hair back.when she started putting her long pink hair in the usual hair style she stoped,and kept it down,making
her look older in a way.Then she ran downstairs in rush more to see her old friend then to eat breakfast.
Everyone exchanged their "good mornings" and ate,but the princess was finished before everyone.Mostly because she wanted breakfast to be over
to have some alone time with Helios.When everyone was done,first the king wanted to explain things out to Usagi.
"you see," he told you "We needed some help around the palace with some...things and when we looked into your past to see
if there was anyone who cold help we saw helios here.With some minor adjustments we brought him here to..Help us in many ways for quite
a while." Small-lady noticed everytime he paused, her mother helios and him would exchange glances as if they wern't telling her something
but she didn't pay much attention to it.When King Endymion was done speaking,she asked if helios would join her,in a walk through the palace
and happily he agreed.
The walk
Walking side by side small-lady wanted to reach up and touch helios hair,but instead kept her hand close by her side.
"It's been so long.." she almost whipered
"Yeah." was all he said starring into nothing.
" So why are you here again?"She asked now curious all over again.
"thats not important right now."he said almost instantly and spun her around so she would face him.
But then rini,remembering last night took a step closer and tiptoed high enough for her lips to reach his.
At first he stood there amazed with his arms by his side,but then raped it around her waist only pulling closer.
But quickly pushed her away.
"But I thought-" she starting but he stoped her.
"No.." was all he said
"okay." was all she could think of.She knew what she did was wrong and helios and her went on as if nothing
had happened,soon forgot about it,or hoped the other one did.
3 years later
Helios had become an offical worker at the palace and still no one would tell small-lady why.
Small-lady and her friend Sakura went to Visit Mars to see Hikami and Queen Serenity
Went along with them to Hikami mother,Queen Mars.
It only took about an hour to get there and when they arrived everyone was delighted to
see each other.
Queen Mars Stood looking very beautiful.Her long black hair flowed down to her back
and her red silky dressed draged behind her and she almost looked as if she were floating
to them as she approched.Behind her ran a very small girl,probally about 8 or 9. She,too,Had long black hair and looked extremly
Shy.Her red skirt poofed outwards and went above her knees and her long sleeves went past her
knees!
She looked at all three of them then picked up the sides of her skirt,
crossed one leg in front of the other,then bent so low to the ground it seemed as if her face would
kiss the pebbled floor.Small ledy half expected Queen Mars to do the same but instead
she simplely nodded her head and Serenity did them same,so sakura and Small-lady did the
"Small-lady,why dont you,sakura and hotaru walk around?" Mars told her. In other words
Small-lady thought,you want the children to get lost.She couldn't help it but feel her face burn
in anger.when she turned 13 she was an "adult" so why still treat her like a kid when she was
16?But instead of saying this she mumbled,
"yes mother" and went about.
While hikami played with the animals,sakura sat besides small-lady
"Ohmigosh."she said
"what?" asked Small-lady
" Don't you know who likes you"
Smalllady felt her face fluster.She suddenly remember the night 3 years ago with
Helios,but pushed it out of her mind.She pressed agaist the gate wall and
put her knees up to her face and hugged herself.
"w-who?" she almost whispered.
"Duh!Hansamu! Can't you tell?" sakura almost screamed
But Small-lady was so confused.Who the hell was Hansamu? so she asked
and sakura explained.Then Small-lady remembered.He was the Dark brown
haired boy at her parties.
"So do you like him?"sakura asked now excited.Lady blushed.NO! she wanted
to scream I HATE HIM!
"no" was all she said.
"suuure" sakura didn't believe her," well you'll have to deal with him tonight."
That night
Small-lady heard a knock on the door.
"You may enter"
And In came Helios.He looked at small-lady carefully and noticed things he hasn't noticed
before.He has been so busy doing things for the king,He didn't see that small lady wasn't so small
anymore.After a while they noticed they were starring at each other.
"C-can I help you?" Small-lady asked.
"Yes,um..."he stopped to look at her again,But the silence was broken by
Ladys window breaking. In shook she spun around to look what did that and everything went fuzzy.
"where am I"
Lady serenity was scared now.She looked around and did not reconize anything at all.
Her long white dress was cut, and it took her some time to realise she was laying on the hard cold floor
in the dirt.She leaned up,and looked at her hands.Both were bleeding badly.
Suddenly above her was a Woman With Long Siliver hair and a black dress.She had
A long sword and held it at small-lady.
"well,Well If it isn't the princess herself"
Just as the woman was about to stab her with the sword a bright light came and she heard the sound of
a horse.Then she awoke.
Back to the room
"Small-lady"
She woke up with helios above her and looked down at her hands.
Bleeding.Was it a dream or real?
"H-helios?what happened...?"
