Disclaimer: I don't own any part of Sailor Moon, I just one of those people that dream that they could.

Author's Note: This is a holiday inspired chapter, but it was one of the ideas I had been toying around with in the first place. Totally inspired by my love of chocolate, the "candy-thief" that plagues Eve Dallas (from Nora Roberts/J.D. Robb's -In Death series), and a fic I read that twisted a totally innocent subject like eating chocolate into something more. ~Anime Stars

My Precious Revenge

Modern Tokyo

"Darien, care to guess what today's date is?" Serena asked as she puttered around the apartment, looking for something.

"Hmm. Ah, it's the fourteenth isn't it?" The blue eyed man responded distractedly as he changed his focus from the work on his laptop to his wife.

"You're right. And I've been saving something special for today, but I can't seem to find it. You haven't seen a pink box around have you?" The blonde frowned as she reached behind the television

looking for the box in question.

"Pink box? What's in it?" Darien watched Serena search franticly around the room, a small smile on his face.

"Well, if I tell you then it won't be a surprise~~!" She said in a sing-song voice. "I've looked everywhere but I still can't find it."

"Serena, you once hid the coffeepot in the bathroom. Are you sure you checked every possible place?"

Serena scoffed and went into the bathroom. She checked under the sink, in the medicine cabinet, and even behind the toilet. It was then she remembered where she thought she had put her box. She

closed the lid on the toilet and boosted herself up so she could reach the ceiling panels. With one hand on the wall for balance Serena pushed the panel above her head up and to the side revealing a

hole. She had chosen to hide the box there so no one would be able to find it. Carefully she felt around the empty space, failing to find the box but instead finding a letter addressed to her. Pouting

she returned the panel and hopped back down to the floor. Serena opened the letter and read the contents to herself.

Dearest Serena, thank you for the chocolate. Next time try finding a better hiding spot.

"I'll get you, you candy thief. That chocolate was supposed to be for me and Darien." The woman vowed as she folded the letter and placed it into the back pocket of her jeans.

But now what am I supposed to do for Darien's gift? She thought as she worried the hem of her pink blouse and walked back into the living room.

Serena looked up expecting to see Darien back working on his laptop but he was nowhere to be seen. The blonde found it odd that first the box went missing, and now her dark-haired husband.

Sitting down on the couch she sighed, and turned on the television. Perhaps watching a show or movie would give her an idea.

Two movies, half a box of tissues, and one bag of popcorn later Serena still had no ideas and Darien had not returned. She wondered where he could have gone off to without telling her, and it was

even Valentine's Day. It was a day they were supposed to spend together, but she let him work since he was overwhelmed with paperwork from the hospital. Now he had the nerve to leave without

telling her, and she didn't even have a gift for him. Still fuming she walked onto the outside balcony to watch the sun set.

After the last of the rays of light had faded Serena walked inside, and upon seeing the time, decided to go to sleep early. When she opened the door to the bedroom, which had been closed all day,

she laughed softly to herself. There asleep on the bed, still dressed, was her missing husband. He held a red rose in one hand and there was a pink heart shaped box beside him. Quietly she walked

over to him and opened the box, selecting a chocolate that she placed into her mouth. Savoring the taste she replaced the cover and gave Darien a small kiss.

"Happy Valentine's Day, Darien." She whispered as she lay down beside him and promptly fell asleep, not seeing his frowning face turn into a smile.

A/N: I know it's short, but I couldn't come up with an idea until last night. I wanted to gift something today since all types of readers/reviewers/authors deserved it. Also for those who noticed, I realize I used a

Western style bathroom, and the only reason why I did was to make it easier on myself. The last thing I needed to do after a long day was research the correct bathroom style. Not really revenge for hiding the

coffee (See chapter 1 of My Precious), but cute nonetheless (I hope). Please review! ~Anime Stars
