Disclaimer: Sadly I don't own Sailor Moon although if I did that would freaking awesome.

Ok so this is the finale! Yes this is the final chapter of the story but there is some good news! There will be a little PWP epilogue that is going to be setup as a oneshot. So it's been a fun time writing this and yes it only took forever for me to do it! Hope you enjoyed the ride and as always please review.

Finally only a few more hours and my fate would be decided. It had been a long year and now hopefully the king hadn't changed his mind. I knew I hadn't.

For me (and I hoped for Endymion as well) our love was something that went back a long time…all the way back to when he was the Prince of Earth although I didn't realize it until over the past year.

I was so nervous that I could hardly sleep.

The following morning I was escorted to the throne room and my nerves grew weaker with each step. The doors opened and dozens of eyes turned to look at me. Kings and Queens from all the Planet Kingdoms were seated along the walls and were now silent, all chatter having stopped when the doors opened.

This was a big event for not only us but for them as well. If the outcome was good for me it created an opening for someone else to marry Chibi-Usa and if it was unfavorable for me it allowed them to also vie for a place for one of their priests to take my place as well...either way everyone benefitted; everyone but me in one case.

Although it was only a minute or so, the walk up to the throne seemed to take forever. At last though, the final moment had come.

The King sat on his throne and watched the two walking down the aisle towards him. It had been a long year but he had kept himself occupied. Things had changed and he knew what would happen because of it.

I stopped in front of the thrones and knelt.

"Queen Serenity, King Endymion, Small Lady." I said nodding in turn to each of them.

"Helios, Priest of Elysion, Priest of Earth. You have been summoned here because you are to make a decision that will affect everyone present. You are to answer one question. Do you love my Papa?"

Small Lady had stood from her throne and stepped forward. The hurt that had been in her eyes when I told her had slowly faded over the year. Slowly it had been replaced with understanding.

I looked at her and took a breath.

"I do Small Lady, more than anything in the universe."

The room seemed to still. Many had been expecting my answer to be yes. The Kings' on the other hand was the shaky one.

"And Papa," she said turning to face him. "Do you still love Helios?"

He was silent a moment and then stood and walked toward me. Placing his hands on my shoulders he said, "Over the year my heart has changed. Feelings I thought lost resurfaced."

My heart skipped a beat. Did he no longer love me?

"Amongst these changes was a strengthening of love for the only one I could, and should ever be with."

I knew it. The moment he said those words my world started to crumble. I was to be sent somewhere to live out my life without him. Tears filled my eyes and I looked down.

Suddenly my head was pulled up and my heart nearly stopped. Lips crashed wanting and needing against mine for only a moment.

Our lips parted and the King said, "Helios I love you more than ever. No matter what happens that will never change." He kissed me again, softer this time and the room exploded into cheers. Chibi-Usa sat and this time Neo Queen Serenity stood and the room went quiet. We pulled apart and looked at her.

"My husband, you are my life. As much as I will regret this, you have made your choice and so I shall make mine. All my daughter and I want is for the ones that we love to be happy. If that means them being together instead of with us then that is fine. You both have our blessing."

We both smiled and nodded at her knowing that this would last forever.

The end.

(But hopefully the epilogue will come shortly so it's not really the end yet. ;) )
