A Galaxy of Difference : A Story of Love

When Mallory woke up again that day, she rolled over to see that he wasn't there. Instead of waiting for him to come back, she was going to surprise him. She got up out of bed and through on his t-shirt before walking downstairs. It only took a little bit of searching to find him in the kitchen.

She stood there for a few moments before saying, "What are you doing? You could at least have put on pants."

Rai smiled. He couldn't find where his pants had landed yesterday. "I thought that you would enjoy this look instead."

"I do." Mallory smiled as she watched him dig through the refrigerator. "Seriously what are you doing?"

"I'm hungry," Rai stated.

"You should have said something," Mallory said as she walked into the kitchen. "I would have made you something."

"I didn't want to wake you up." Rai didn't want to wake her up because he always thought that sleep was her time to clear everything from her head and because she looked so cute when she slept. "Plus, I didn't want to make anything. I wanted something simple, but apparently that isn't the case."

"You could just have cereal." She laughed as she saw Rai shake his head no. "Or maybe some toast."

"Toast would have been good if the bread wasn't moldy."

Mallory laughed again. "I can't help you then."

"That's ok. I'll find something."

"Find me something too." Mallory said as she walked over to the kitchen table and sat down. She was lost in her own little world until she felt Rai touch her shoulder.

"What are you thinking about?" Rai was worried about her since she had not responded to anything he had said.

"Everything," Mallory looked at him, "from you to Lita to wondering if they noticed that I am gone."

Rai sighed. He was hoping that this wasn't going to happen. "It is Christmas Day. I'm sure that they did."

Mallory got up and walked over to him. "I totally forgot." She passionately kissed him before saying, "Merry Christmas."

"Merry Christmas Mallory," Rai stated. "Don't think that is going to get you out of telling me what is wrong."

"I just thought that I would feel better since I left. Don't get me wrong I love being here with you. It is just that I took Mina's advice and left and now I'm not so sure."

"You have me here and everything is going to be fine." Rai smiled. "I'm sure what your feeling is only natural."

"Thanks baby."

"Not a problem." Rai pulled her down into his lap. "So if I have the calculations right, then you left the night of Serena and Seiya's wedding."

"I did."

"Serena is going to kill you for that."

"I honestly don't care." Mallory laid her head on his shoulder. "She can do whatever she wants. I have you now and I don't plan on giving that up anytime soon. Besides I have a new family now."

"Yep, you do." Rai sighed. "I suppose we should head over there."

"I guess so, but I am nervous."

"Don't be," Rai said as he gently pushed her off of his lap.

They decided that they decided that they needed to go get ready to leave. She was really nervous about meeting his family and with good reason. It took the couple another two hours to get ready to leave. Once they were done, Mallory had on her jeans and a nice yellow shirt. Rai, on the other hand, had on khakis and a light blue button down shirt.

"Are you ready Mallory?"

"Yeah, I think so. I'm really nervous."

"Don't be nervous. I'll be there." Rai smiled. "I kind of have to tell you something."

"What is it?" Mallory asked as she walked down the stairs.

"We have to fly to get there."

"That's fine," Mallory had no idea what he was talking about, but decided to just agree with him. She walked outside and waited for him. She silently wondered if she needed to grab some extra clothes, but decided not to worry about it. She was lost in thought again when she felt him pick her up. "What are you doing?"

"I'm carrying you."

"I can walk to the plane you know." Mallory looked around and noticed that there wasn't a plane. "I'm confused."

Rai smiled and said, "We are not taking a plane."

"Then are exactly are we going to get there?" As soon as she asked that question, she felt Rai blast off into the sky. She wrapped her arms tightly around his neck. "Are you crazy? You could have warned me!"

Rai laughed. "That wouldn't have been any fun."

It took a few minutes for Mallory to calm down enough to ease her grip. She should have been scared, but she wasn't. It took about a hour to get to the cottage. When she saw it, Mallory became really scared.

"Rai can we go home?"

"No, we can't." Rai said as he started to descend to the ground

"What if they don't like me?"

"Don't worry about that. They will love you."

"If you say so," Mallory said as he landed.

Rai could feel everyone staring at them as he let go of Mallory. "I do," he whispered in her ear.

Everyone stood there watching them. They were shocked to see that Rai actually had a girl with him and they wondered if this was the girl that Bulma had been telling everyone about. Mallory didn't know what to say to everyone and instead she just smiled.

"Mallory!" Bulma exclaimed as she walked over to them. "I'm so glad that you're here. What have you been doing? I can't believe that it has almost been a year."

"It has been a very long year." Mallory was happy that someone had talked to her. "Who is the baby that you are holding? She is adorable."

"My daughter Bra."

"Congratulations," Mallory wondered how much had happened here in the past year.

"Thanks." Bulma was so happy to see that Mallory was here. She knew that girl was the one thing that made Rai happy. "Rai you should go and introduce her to everyone."

"I was planning on it." Rai was a little jealous that his mother in this timeline was hogging his girlfriend.

"I'm sure that she would love to meet Gohan." Bulma sighed, "I'll be inside if you need me Mallory. Just don't let Gohan imitate you."

"I'll try not to." Mallory was not sure that she wanted to meet Gohan. She was worried that they could have had a relationship this past year, but she put that thought out of her mind because she knew that Rai would have told her.

Mallory followed Rai around the property and was introduced to so many people that she knew she wouldn't remember. To her they all seemed super nice, but she could tell that Rai was anxious about something. When they got back to the living room of the house, she grabbed a hold of his hand.

"Rai I need to ask you something."

"Sure, what is it?" Rai was a little confused because there shouldn't have been anything to ask about.

"Did you," Mallory sighed, "date Gohan while I was gone?" She hated herself for asking, but it needed to be done. "I don't care, but I just want to know."

Rai shook his head, "No, I haven't."

"Why?" Mallory asked. "Isn't it the same? Isn't he the same as yours?"

Rai turned around to look at her and said, "No, he isn't. He has a wife, Videl, and a daughter named Pan."

Mallory looked down at the floor. "I feel like an idiot."

"Don't be," Rai lifted her chin and looked in her eyes, "I was wondered about you and Lita. We can't help who we love. Besides, my Gohan was drastically different from this time's Gohan. You don't have to worry about anything."

"I'll try not to then."

"Good," Rai said as he grabbed her hand. "I think I want to go back outside again."

Mallory smiled, "Me too." There were just too many people in the house and she hoped that none of them just heard their conversation because then she would be completely embarrassed.

They walked outside and sat on the grass. Mallory was enjoying the warmer weather and her time with Rai. Everything seemed to make more sense with him around, plus she felt safer.

"I really missed you." Rai looked at his girlfriend. "I wanted to go back there, back to the place that was my home for five years, but I wasn't sure if you were still there or not. Plus, I didn't want to put you through anymore pain or trouble."

"I was still there in your apartment." Mallory stated. "I was waiting for you to come back home, but in the end I just ended up coming to you instead."

"I did try though. I just couldn't book a flight out. I wanted to seem as normal as I could to everyone else. You were the only one there that knew so much about me."

Mallory smiled, "Your right I was. I knew that I wouldn't have been able to get everything on a plane, so I drove here."

"Yeah, I saw Haruka's mustang."

Mallory shook her head. "No, it is my mustang now. Haruka gave it to me."

"But I thought she hated you."

"Oh she does." Mallory laughed. "She couldn't leave me without a car and so she gave me that one."

"That was nice of her."

"Yeah, it was."

The two of them sat there talking about their perspectives on their friends from home. It was funny to find out that they were not too far off from each other.

"Hi Rai."

Mallory looked over and saw a tall guy with black hair. "Rai who is that?"

"That would be Gohan." Rai watched as Gohan sat down in front of them. "Gohan this is my girlfriend Mallory."

"The one you keep telling me about?" Rai nodded. "It is finally nice to meet you Mallory. I must say that you are cuter then I thought."

"Thank you," Mallory smiled. "I have heard a lot about you too."

"Really?" Mallory nodded. "You are probably thinking of the other Gohan, but I am flattered. Rai tells me that I am kind of like him."

"Sorry," She felt stupid, especially since her and Rai just had this talk.

"Don't be." Gohan said.

Mallory sat there listening to the boys talk. She didn't want to embarrass herself again. After a little while, she excused herself and walked back into the house. As soon as she was in the cottage, she walked over and sat down on the couch. She did enjoy being with Rai, but she wondered about what was happening back home.

She was sure that Mina told everyone that she had left, but what bothered her was Lita. Mallory wondered if Lita was truly happy with Darien. She was positive that she wasn't, but there was nothing that the blonde could do about that. She was happy and that meant that Lita had to be happy too. After all, it was her who wanted the destinies to be different. Honestly, Mallory was just happy that she had Rai.

After about an hour, Mallory realized that the boys had not come back inside yet. She walked back outside and saw that they weren't there. Mallory sighed. She didn't know where they could have gone. She remembered when Rai showed her the room he was staying in earlier. Mallory decided to walk upstairs to his room. She was hoping that he was there. When Mallory reached the bedroom, she saw that the door was cracked.

"Gohan, I'm so nervous. I'm not sure of how to do this."

Mallory heard Rai say that. "I wonder what he is talking about," She thought. It was weird. She didn't understand why he would be so nervous.

"It's easy. Don't think about it. Just give her the ring."

"A ring," Mallory thought. "Why is he so nervous about a ring?"

"Are you sure? I don't want to screw this up."

She could tell that her boyfriend was really nervous because he had that weird tone in his voice. Mallory wondered what exactly was going on.

"You won't screw this up. Rai, you have waited for a year to do."

She wondered what he had waited a year for. "I wonder what is going on," Mallory thought. She wished someone would just say it.

"I know that I have." Rai paused. "Gohan I love her so much. She makes me feel whole. Mallory just makes living more enjoyable because we all know how much I hate it here."

"Yeah, that is true." Gohan just wanted to open the bedroom door. He knew that Mallory was standing there, but he had to wait. "You will do fine. Trust me."

"I do trust you that why I asked you first."

Gohan smiled, "Then you might as well just open the door and propose then."

Mallory's eyes got really big. She couldn't believe that this is what he was so nervous about.

"What are you talking about?" Rai asked as he walked over to the door. He opened and saw Mallory standing there in tears. "Mallory?" He looked at Gohan and said, "Get out now."

Gohan nodded. As he walked past Rai, he said, "You're welcome though for the push."

Rai pulled his girlfriend into the room and then shut the door. "How much did you hear?"

"I'm not sure," Mallory sniffled. "I didn't mean to listen, but I could tell you were nervous and I just wanted to make sure that everything was ok."

"Everything is ok now." Rai smiled as he got down on his knee. "I know it is really stupid to propose to you, especially since we only got back together, but I wanted to do something that would make our first Christmas a memorable one."

Mallory was speechless. Having Rai propose was the last thing that she had ever expected.

"Mallory Tsukino will you marry me?" Rai blurted out. He had not meant for that to happen, but he was really nervous. Rai's smile got even bigger when he saw Mallory smile. "Really?"

"Really," Mallory said as she watched him slip the Princess Cut diamond ring on her finger. "I love you so much."

"I love you too." Rai passionately kissed his fiancée. He really enjoyed that word.

"I promise th-"

"No promises." Rai looked in Mallory's blue eyes. "Promises are worthless. We have been through so much that I just want to be us."

Mallory smiled, "Then no promises."

"Exactly." Rai pulled her into his arms. "I was thinking that maybe we could go back home."

Mallory wrapped her arms around him before saying, "Lets just stay here for now. We could at least find ourselves an apartment first."

"That's true." Rai just stood there holding his love in his arms. "Do you not want to go back because of Serena and Lita."

"That's not the reason. I know that my sister is always going to be mad at me, so that really doesn't matter." Mallory sighed, "I don't care what Lita thinks about this. All that I know is that she knew what she was talking about."

"That is good to know." Rai leaned in and kissed his fiancée. He didn't think that he could ever get sick of thinking that. He gently laid her down on the bed. "I was thinking that maybe we could just stay here the rest of the day. I don't really want to deal with seeing everyone. I just want to keep you to myself for awhile."

Mallory smiled, "I just want that too."

Rai smirked, "You are going to regret saying that."

"No, I won't," Mallory had never seen him smirk before. She wondered just what she was in for.

The two of them ended up making passionate love. They were just enjoying themselves and celebrating the engagement when the bedroom door opened. Instantly, Mallory had a flashback to the night of the party at Haruka's and the time she had been caught with Lita.

"What is going on here?" Bulma asked. "You two are suppose to be downstairs with the rest of us."

Mallory was glad for Rai's fast reflexes. She didn't really want her soon to be mother-in-law to see her naked. Instead of talking, she closed her eyes and hid her face in Rai's neck.

"Mother," Rai growled, "the door is shut for a reason."

"I want the two of you downstairs now."

"Get out of my room!" Rai demanded. "We are not going downstairs. I don't care to see anyone down there."

Mallory just hoped that Bulma was going to be leaving soon. She was really embarrassed and wanted to know why this kept happening to her.

"I don't understand why you don't just come downstairs." Bulma wanted them to be part of the family gathering.

"Because I would like to spend time celebrating our engagement!"

"Engagement?" It took a moment before Bulma could process it, but when she did she said, "Then celebrate. I'm so happy."

Mallory had finally found her voice and said, "Could you please leave then?"

Bulma nodded and closed the door on her way out. She was excited to know that there was going to be another member to her family, although she had known it was only a matter of time before they were engaged. Bulma just didn't expect it to happen so fast.

They waited a few seconds and then Rai rolled off of Mallory. "I'm sorry about that," Rai said. "I should have known that would happen."

Mallory laughed, "We always do seem to be caught in compromising positions."

"That is true." Rai was so upset with what had happened. He had the door closed for a reason. He wondered why Gohan hadn't stopped his mother from going to his room.

"I am really embarrassed Rai."

"Me too," he couldn't help but be embarrassed even if it wasn't his real mother. "I think has to be the worst one yet."

"Yeah, it is." Mallory moved and straddled Rai. "Although, at the time I thought being caught with Lita was worse."

Rai smirked, "Now I know what made her stay with you though. You are a crazy woman."

"What exactly are you going to do about it Mr. Briefs?"

"You shouldn't have asked that," Rai said as he pulled her close to him, "because I can be crazier then you."

Mallory sweetly kissed his nose. "I bet you can."

That was the last thing that was said between the two of them. The rest of that day was spent showing the other just how much they were loved and luckily without any interruptions.

When Mallory woke up the next morning, she saw that Rai was still asleep. She laid there watching him and looking at her ring. She was still in shock over everything that happened yesterday. She smiled when she saw him open his baby blue eyes.

"Good morning," Mallory sweetly said.

"Morning," Rai said as he watched Mallory lay her head back down on his chest. "What are you thinking about?"

"A lot of things."

"Like what?"

"My ring," Mallory said as she sat up. "I love it."

"That is a good thing. I think it's a two karat diamond, but I'm not sure."

"How can you not know?"

"It's a family ring from my time." Rai smiled. "Yours is unique and no one else here has it."

"Really?" She saw Rai nod. "I love it even more now."

"You better." Rai sat up and kissed her. "I love you so much."

"I love you too." Mallory said before kissing him again. She smiled when she felt Rai roll so he was on top. She moaned as Rai was making his down her body when there was a knock on the door. "Go away!"

"I just thought that you might like to know that we are getting ready to leave." Gohan sighed. He secretly wished he didn't have to be the one to tell them since all he could hear was moaning. Instead of waiting for a reply, he just left.

"I hate him." Mallory whined.

"Me too," Rai was irritated. It wasn't that he hated Gohan as much as it was just the timing of everything. "I guess we should get ready to leave."

Mallory agreed as she got up and started to look for her clothes. She really wanted to take a shower, but she knew that she could do that later.

It took about ten minutes for them to get dressed and then they walked downstairs. Rai glared at everyone, especially Eighteen. Mallory looked over to where Rai was looking and guessed that must have been the one that destroyed his family. She decided that she wasn't going to have any of this today. So she pulled him away from her and out the front door.

The flight back to Capsule Corp was uneventful. Mallory was still embarrassed about what had happened last night with Bulma, but she was glad that she didn't have to see her right now. Once they arrived back at Rai's house, the two of them went upstairs to his room.

"Rai," Mallory sat on his bed, "what is wrong? I can tell that you are not happy."

"How can I be happy?" Rai sat down next to her. "I don't like it here. You know that. It hurts be around everyone, especially that android. I just don't want us to get separated."

"Then let's not live here Rai."

"Where are we going to go?" He looked at her and said, "You don't want to go home for the same reasons that I don't want to be here. What are we going to do?"

"Well," that was a question that she had not really thought about, "I am not sure. I was thinking about an apartment, but I don't have a job and I don't know if we could afford it."

"I think we can. I mean I have a job at Capsule Corp."

Mallory smiled. "Then that is what we do. We don't even have to be around these people. As long as we have us then nothing else matters."

Rai kissed her. "You don't know how happy you make me."

"Yes, I do."

That conversation proved to be very important for them. Rai decided that he would give life a chance in West Capitol for Mallory, even if he didn't like it. He knew that Mallory was right about everything because she always was.

It took a couple of weeks, but Rai managed to find them an affordable one bedroom apartment on the other side of town. He had been so happy to start his life with Mallory. He couldn't begin to tell anyone how much he enjoyed seeing her before he went to sleep and waking up with her in the morning.

Mallory walked into their apartment to find her fiancé sitting on the couch watching television. "What are you doing?" She asked as she walked over to him.

"Nothing really," Rai said as he looked at her. "I was just thinking."

"What about?"

"About us," Rai sighed. He didn't really know how to say this next part. "I know that we have been here for a year and a half now and I kn-"

"Rai what's wrong?" Mallory said as she cut him off. "You're not dumping me, are you?"

"Don't even say that, Mallory, because you know that it's not true. I was just thinking about," Rai paused because he wasn't sure how she would take this not part. "Mallory, I know that you want this big wedding, but I don't want to wait anymore."

Mallory smiled. "I don't want to wait anymore either. I just didn't know how to tell you because you have been working so hard."

"I just want to be with you. I don't need a fancy wedding for that."

"Me either," Mallory sat down next to him. "What are you saying then?"

"I'm saying that I just want to elope."

"That sounds good to me."

"Are you sure?" Rai didn't want to pressure her into anything, but he was really happy that she agreed to it.

"Yes, I am." She kissed him. "How about we go tonight then?"

"I think that we should." Rai smiled. "We can call into work and tell them what is happening and then they would have to let us off."

"I don't care about that."

Rai laughed. "I'm going to go change and then we can leave."

Mallory nodded. She couldn't believe that they were doing this. A few minutes later, she saw him come back into the living room. "Are we ready?"

"We are."

With that said, they left their apartment. They didn't bring anything else with them because they knew that they didn't need it. They decided to drive to Satan City since it was far enough away from everyone. When they got there, they checked into the first hotel that they found.

The next morning, Mallory slipped out and headed to the mall. She needed to pick up a few things, like a dress. That was the one thing that she had to have. The mall didn't have anything that even closely resembled a wedding dress. So she decided to go see what a bridal store had. That had been her lucky day. She left with a floor length strapless dress. It fit her perfectly. She purchased the dress and then drove back to the hotel. Once she got to the room, she saw Rai sitting on the bed.

"I see that you went out."

Mallory nodded. "I had to get some things." She hung up her dress on the bathroom door.

"Like what?" Rai was enjoying their question game because the time that she had been gone not only gave him time to think, but also time to un-capsule his tuxedo and the rings.

"My dress," Mallory walked over to him. "I just couldn't get married without it."

"I understand." He wanted to kiss her so badly that it hurt, but he wasn't going to give her what she wanted. At least not right now.

"Give me an hour and I should be ready."

Rai nodded. "I think that should be enough time."

That hour flew by too fast for both of them. Neither one would admit it, but they were extremely nervous. Mallory knew that it was bad luck to have Rai see her in her dress before the ceremony, but with all the bad luck they had experienced, she really didn't care.

The actual wedding had been very fast. Rai had been shocked because he would have thought that it would be longer, but he was just glad to know that Mallory was his wife. Mallory had thought the same thing about the wedding, but in reality she was just glad to have it over with. She was happy that they had decided this because it was something that they shared with each other and no one else.

They drove back to the hotel to celebrate their marriage. It had been the most fantastic night of their lives. To them there was no one else in the world. They left the hotel three days later to start their lives as husband and wife. Both of them knew that all the needed was each other and that would be all that ever mattered.

That's the end. I think that I might have rushed the ending. Oh well because I like it. I hope that you guys enjoyed this story. This one is actually my favorite one. Let me know what you guys think! Bye!
