Ryushu opened his eyes as he woke up. He had to be awake today, (1) since it was Hotaru's birthday. The next day, He would be guarding that politician. He made a note that the new cyan color looked good. As he picked up the clothes he laid out before he went to sleep he felt something odd. He looked at a piece of clothing he KNEW wasn't his. Then he remembered. He had no cyan colors in here. He slowly looked at the bed and saw…. Michiru. Ok. That was weird. Sure, he kissed her a few days ago, but this?!? The bra he found, as well as some of her other clothes around the room, gave him an idea of her state of dress. Or rather, undress. He softly woke her up.

"Oh, hi Ryushu." She shut her eyes, which opened so fast Ryushu was surprised her eyelids didn't crack. "Why are you in my room?" she asked as she sat up. She obviously had no clue where she was, or what she was wearing. Or, lack of. "Your in my room. And you're naked." She looked down and grabbed sheets and covered herself up. "What am I doing in your room, with no clothes?" she asked, confused. "I have no clue. But I would have to guess we did what a majority of the human populace does when neither of them are decent." He said with a small smirk. Her face turned redder then Rei's Senshi outfit. "Look, It's barely after 6:00 a.m. Why don't you slip into your own bed and we'll act like this never happened?" He suggested. She looked at him rather suspiciously. "Unless you'd rather everyone know we slept together and have no clue, or memory, of why?" She gathered up her clothes and snuck out of the basement Ryushu had made his room. He sat down and looked at Knick Knack, who had an amused twinkle in his eye. "This is turning into a headache of a day. And it's not even breakfast."

Hotaru walked down the stairs with a smile. She was sure she was going to enjoy today. After all, it was her birthday. There was no way that they would forget about her on her special day. She found Ryushu standing at the kitchen, cutting up some parsley for breakfast, Knick Knack next to him, chewing on a piece of celery. Hakura and Setsuna were also at the table. Michiru walked in behind Hotaru. "Hello." She said as she hugged her family. Breakfast was good. Setsuna had gotten her some outfits she had her eye on. How the senshi of time knew that, she had no clue. Hakura had given her books on the planet Saturn. Michiru had gotten her a new bed. Ryushu had used his phasing trick to swap beds. Speaking of the dark senshi, he had given her some new lamps. "Thanks guys. I love my new presents."

Just then the phone rang. Ryushu slipped over and picked it up. "Oh, hi Rei. Sure, you can talk to her." Hotaru was passed the phone and listened. "Hi Rei. Uh-hu. Sure. Thanks. Bye." She hung up the phone. "Rei's day is staying in the Imperial palace and has invited Rei and some friends. So she invited me." "Wait, Senshi can have fathers?" The look the group gave him was priceless. "What, I thought it was some unwritten rule or something. I mean," he waved to Hakura and Michiru." Their dads don't like them because their lesbians, Setsuna's pop probably died about a million years ago. Jupiter's parents are both dead, and I don't even know if Ami knows our dads name. Cause I sure don't. And of course, Hotaru' dad tired to help some unstoppable being kill you all" "Usagi and Makoto both have their mothers." Setsuna pointed out. "The less said about meatball face, the better. And who cares about Makoto? I always get her confused with Minako." the group continued to look at him. "Forgive me for being observant. So who's Rei's dad?" "He's a politician, his name is Yoshiro Hino." Ryushu had to stop himself from spitting his drink all over Setsuna. That was the name of the guy he'd be guarding alongside of Siato and Togusa. Oh, crud! First he woke up with Michiru in his bed, (not that he minded of course) but now, the guy he was making sure didn't get killed was going to be surrounded by senshi. Who didn't know about the fact he was working with the government. This just keeps getting better and better.

(1) When Ryushu thought, he had to be awake; he meant he had to be around the other senshi.
