Her Pure Heart
Chapter 9
*flash back*
Haruka's P.O.V
I smiled and bowed to Queen Serenity and the moon princess. They were back on Uranus to discuss a closer trade agreement between our two kingdoms, and I was to escort my fair soulmate today. "Thank you for allowing us to come to your beautiful kingdom," Queen Serenity stated and took my fathers hand the two Monarchs leaving us to our selves. Stepping forward I gently took the beautiful blondes hand and guided her out of the room her chime like giggle making me smile. Once we were away from prying eyes I puller her closer and gently cupped her chin. Delicately I pressed our lips together in a soft kiss and shifted my hand down to the small of her back. I felt her arms wrap around my neck as I took the kiss a touch farther swiping my tongue across her beautiful lips causing her to gasp and open her mouth as I took the kiss deeper coxing her to reciprocate. Suddenly a voice was cleared behind us as I pulled back and shifted Serenity closer to me as I turned to spot Venus.
"Sorry to interrupt princess, but you know the rules," Venus sighed as Serenity blushed softly. She stepped back from me as Venus gave me a sly smirk and laughed, "You both know that until she marries you and Endymion she is not allowed to be alone with you without a chaperone."
"S-Sorry Venus…" Serenity whispers shyly as Venus smiles and pats her younger cousins head.
"It is fine Serenity I understand that these rules can be frustrating, but they are there to protect all of you. Unfortunately, in our circle reputation is incredibly important and if people see you like this then both of your reputations will be in danger as will your relationships with other kingdoms."
"We understand that Venus, but still it is hard. The three of us are soulmates, we will always be there for each other. Nothing van take her from Mamuro and I." I said softly taking my princesses hand.
Venus's eyes softened as she sighed, "Fine, but stay within an area that I can find, and no one would think to look for you," She stated and turned away from us. Smiling I pulled Serenity back down the hall and to my mother's private garden. Carefully I guided her to the small bench my mother had built for the area and we sat down. It was a comfortable silence as she leaned her head onto my shoulder and started playing with our connected hands. I carefully wrapped my arm around her shoulder and began playing with her long golden hair, being careful not to disturb the two buns on the top of her head.
"Haruka?" Serenity whispered softly as I looked down at her and hummed in response, "Why do you always carry that sword?" She asked softly referring to the time space sword on my hip.
Smiling I began to explain, "It is the time space sword, it is like the silver crystal to my people. It is the most important artifact on the planet of Uranus. This sword with the deep sea mirror of Neptune and the garnet orb of Pluto have the ability to summon Sailor Saturn, the Sailor Senshi of death. This is something that can never be allowed to happen." Serenity nods at my explanation as we here foot steps behind us. Looking up I smiled at my father and Queen Serenity as they came into the garden and over to us.
"My darling I am glad to see you both so happy." Queen Serenity smiles as she holds out a hand to her daughter. My princess takes the hand and stands smiling up at the elder woman, "Sadly we must return home, but you will see your beloved soon."
"Okay Mother," Serenity whispered, and I stood and gently kissed her forehead as they left the Garden leaving only my father and I.

Haruka's P.O.V
I sit up groggily and look down to see Usagi sleeping peacefully between Mamuro and I. I smiled softly as I thought back on the memory I had just remembered, it was nice to see how we had interacted in the past, and how we interacted now. She was still so sweet and innocent, but in this life, she was far more care free and happy. Gently reaching down I touched her cheek and pushed back the hair from her face as I heard a groan from Mamuro as he woke up and stretched.
"What time is it?" He asked tiredly as I smirked.
"5am," I replied softly and tilted my head towards the sleeping princess. He nodded and quietly got up from the bed and began to gather he belongings and get ready.
"ngh…." Usagi groaned and shifted closer to me outing in her sleep that her second heat source was gone. Mamuro smiled softly and leaned down to kiss her head.
"I will be back later today… keep her with you today," He whispered softly and left the room leaving Usagi alone with me. I smirked and shifted her closer to me so that her head rested just under my bust. Moving her hair out of her face I smiled and let my eyes drift closed again as I fell back asleep peacefully, no more memories coming forward again.
