Authors Note: I don't own Sailor Moon or any of the characters therein, they belong to Naoko Takeuchi who created them. I'm a really big fan and i'm in love with her work, that's all!
Please note that yes, I know "Serena" never met Seiya, it was "Usagi". However, when I started the story I was using the dub names and didn't really think of Seiya being in the plot until later... I decided not to go back and change the names for my own reasons. I'm sorry to those who may be a lttle miffed at me, but I hope you enjoy it anyway...And yes, I cut Seiya's hair (not too much)! Don't worry, it's not so bad, you'll see!
Please let me know if you like it or send me suggestions to future plots.
Chapter 3: Feelings and Friendships
--
After driving Rei hame, Seiya pulled into the parking complex, turned off the ignition, and got out of the car. As he walked towards the front door of his apartment building, his thoughts were a jumbled mass in his head. He didn't mean to come off so strong to Serena, but his feelings took control and now he couldn't take it back. Once inside his apartment, he carefully tip-toed to his room as to not wake Taiki and Yaten who were asleep in their rooms. He walked to the foot of the bed where a full-length mirror stood, and gazed at the reflection he saw there. He really hadn't changed so much since leaving earth. He was a little older, and the ponytail that was the starlights' trademark was a little shorter; it now grazed the middle of his shoulderblades instead of hanging to his lower back. He had quite the reunion earlier that day and, thanks to Serena, now had a giant goose-egg the size of a golf ball on the left side of his forehead. He smiled as he thought of Serena's reaction seeing him sitting in her living room, waiting for her. Seiya laid down on his bed and looked at the ceiling, he knew sleep would not come for him tonight.
"I love Saturdays!" a happy Serena tried to exclaim with a mouthful of chocolate ice cream. Ami smiled from across the table at her friend. I was hard to imagine that the same girl sitting across from her now, had saved the world countless times and risked her own life doing so. "So Serena, did Seiya mention what he wanted to talk about with you today? You haven't really told me what the two of you talked about before Rei came over yesterday." Serena's face went red as she choked on her ice cream. She had forgotten that she was supposed to talk to Seiya today. "Are you okay Serena?" Ami looked concerned for her friend. "Uh, yeah I'm fine," Serena finally got out after choking down the ice cream. "the thing is, he never really said what he wanted to talk about, only that he wanted to." Serena got that innocent look back pretending she didn't have any inclination as to the subject of this talk. Ami's face went a little confused looking as Serena realized what came out didn't really make a lot of sense. Ami got up and turned to her friend. "Well I have to be back to the hospital in a half hour, you sure you don't want a ride home?" Serena thought about this, but thought that if she had to talk to Seiya today, she'd much rather be in a public place. This would keep her from getting into another uncomfortable scene like the one at her house yesterday. "No, I think I'll stay here at the Crown for now and get a cheeseburger. I have stuff I want to do in town today anyways. Thank you though!" Her friend smiled as she walked away. "Okay I'll see ya tomorrow Serena!" Ami called to her friend before the door closed on her way out.
Seiya was about to call Serena when the phone rang in his hands. He wondered who would be calling them as only a couple of people knew the Lights had returned. He hoped it was Serena, but instead heard a different female voice on the phone. "Hi Seiya, it's Ami" the voice now familiar said. Silence "Hello?" Seiya was a little nervous. "Is everything ok? Is Serena ok? Where are you? I can..." "No,no, everything's fine. Serena's fine." Ami started. "I'm sorry, I know I shouldn't be butting into things, but I'm worried about how events are starting to play out." Now Ami was nervous. "Ya know Ami, you're starting to sound like Serena," Seiya chuckled. "This is serious Seiya. Please just take into concideration possible future concequences to anything that happens between you and Serena, ok?" CLICK Seiya stared at the receiver. He knew very well what Ami was talking about. The very thing was keeping him from sleep last night. He can't deny his feelings anymore, but is it worth it to change Serena's future too? Forgetting to call Serena, Seiya grabbed his keys off the table and slammed the door to his appartment. He needed to think.
It was a little after 1pm and still Serena had not heard anything from Seiya so she decided to window shop so as not to make the outing a complete waste of time. She stopped at one window witha sailor moon theme. There was a manequin sailor moon witha buble above it's head saying 'I'll ppunish you!'. Serena giggled at the doll and continued to walk down the sidewalk without looking away from the window. SMACK! Serena instanly felt herself hit a familar-smelling body of very expensive, yet very seductive cologne. "Geez Odango! You should really look where you're going! You know I'm surprized that you haven't seriously injured anyone yet". Serena gulped and slowly looked up to no other that Seiya in all his chizled, red-silk suited glory. Seiya held out his had to help the very embarrassed girl up. Serena took his hand and immediately turned crimson. Seiya smirked looking a little annoyed, "I thought we had a date Odango, but I see you must have forgotten about it with all this window shopping." Serena, now standing turned up on her heels, nose in the air. "Well for one thing, we never had a "d-" Serena stumbled over the word "date, and secondly, you never called me back today!" And with the the blonde hawtily walked the oppsite direction, absently browsing more windows.
"Hmmm, I hadn't thought that I'd bump intop her here...maybe this isn't such a good idea." Seiya's thoughts were a mess. Serena, no longer hearing footsteps behind her looked back to see Seiya staring at the wall of a building. "I forgive you!", Serena belted out in her happy-go-lucky way twirling her hair with one finger. Seiya, lost in lost jumped at her sudden presence in front of him. "Well if that's the reaction I g-" Serena was cut off by strong arms and warm, sweet lips. Stunned, she stiffened at the reaction, then got totally lost in it. The kiss was so deep and needy, it never seemed to end. Finally Seiya broke it off leaving a very dreaming looking Serena losing balance, droppily opening her eyes in front of him. "I can't help it Serna, I'm sorry...I wanted to tell u how I felt and that I needed you but your future's already pre-destined and I don't want to mess with that". Seiya turned to walk away but was stopped by the small girl, tears in her eyes. "Dammit Seiya, why does it always have to be about you?!" Seiya looked down defeated but was met by warm hands on his face. "I love you too.", Serena kissed him gently followed by another deep passionate kiss.
