Well thanks for reviewing so far ,

I dedicate this chapter to my great support : Sailorstars16 !

Chapter six : The kiss

The next day Usagi woke up early.She knew Rei would always leave around this time for school so she had to hurry up if she ever wanted an answer about what had happened yesterday.

The black cat that lay on the bed just stared at the blonde princess in disbelieve. Never before had Usagi been up around this time , let alone stand on a day which involved school.

'' Luna i'm leaving early okay ? I don't want to be late for school today , i promised miss.Haruna i would be there on time.'' The girl lied.

'' But it's not even six in the morning , why would you leave at this time ?'' The cat asked.

Usagi just stayed silent as she started dressing herself in her school uniform. When she looked in the mirror she noticed something she had never seen before.'' Luna did you ever noticed that my school uniform is just the same as my sailor outfit but longer ? I mean i'm really curious about the fact no one reconizes me when i'm sailor moon.''

The cat nodded.'' I know , you see it's because...ah never mind you wouldn't understand it.''

'' Try me.''

'' If you tell me what's going on lately , even Artemis seems to know.'' Luna said not giving up. Usagi went wide eyed at that statement.Sure she had figured out that Rei knew about what was going on between her and Mamoru but if Artemis knew it would mean that the other scouts did too.

'' Never mind , i suddenly realised i don't care about why people don't see why i'm Sailor moon anymore.'' Usagi stated with a smirk.That would learn that little cat not to bother her all the time with those questions.

'' Whatever , i'm going to sleep.'' Luna said as she lay her head on the bed closing her eyes.

'' Okay you do that , i'm going to get me some answers !'' Usagi chirped as she ran out of her bedroom closing the door with a loud thump causing Luna to fall off the bed in shock.

When Usagi reached the temple she could see Rei just step out of the door with a sad look on her face.It made the small blonde wonder if it had to do with what happened the day before.Why hadn't she done anything when Mamoru attacked the raven haired girl ? Why had she just watched it happen , why hadn't she done anything to help her friend ?

'' Rei wait up !'' Usagi yelled as she started running into the other girl's direction.She wasn't sure but she could've sworn she heard Rei mutter something that sounded like : Here we go.

The raven haired girl turned around to face the blonde who stood in front of her now.'' I know what you're going to say Usagi , so please save yourself the trouble.'' Usagi looked hurt for a moment but then a smile crossed her face suprising Rei.

'' Oh you do ? Well in that case you know what i'm going to say now right ?'' The blonde princess asked.

Rei nodded.'' You're kicking me out of the team.'' The answer suprised Usagi.Did the miko really think that , did she really think Usagi cared about the fact Rei was attracted to girls ?

Usagi just shook her head.'' No ofcourse not , i wanted to say i'm sorry about what happened yesterday , i should've done something and not just watch Mamoru try and kill you. Again , please forgive me.''

The fire goddess smiled softly.After all Usagi still hadn't changed one bit , she was still the sweet and forgiving person but Rei wasn't planning on just forgetting what had happened yesterday.

'' That's okay , i don't blame you for what happe...'' But she was cut of by Usagi's lips on hers.Was this really happening ? Was Usagi really kissing her or was this a dream? It had to be. When The blonde girl noticed Rei wasn't returning the kiss she pulled back holding back the tears that were treathening to fall.

'' I'm sorry.'' The princess whispered as she turned away not longer facing the raven haired girl who was still too shocked to say or do anything.Rei opened her mouth to say something but no words came out.

Usagi still didn't face the other and took a deep breath.'' I think i misunderstood.'' She added causing Rei to snap out of her thoughts.'' But i just thought...i mean after what you said yesterday...i just thought.Well , you really seemed to mean it ,atleast i thought and..''

Rei could feel her own heart break at every word that came out of the mouth of the smaller and now crying blonde.She was just too shocked to return Usagi's kiss , it came to unexpected to her , she knew that if she could do it all over she wouldn't have hesitated.But she couldn't do it all over , there was no such thing as second chances in life.

Luna still sat on the bed staring out of the window following a cloud that really looked like a half moon.She didn't know why but somehow the thought of the moon made her feel sad.

The sailor senshi had wanted nothing more than becoming simple and normal girls just like the rest but they had forgotten what it was to feel and to live.They had been so used to trusting their powers and eachother they didn't know how it was to really live anymore.

In their time of being a sailor senshi there was no time for love , now they had all the time they needed , time to realise their feelings for eachother as well as for others that were around them the whole time.

Usagi had taken this change the hardest. Not only had she come to realise she had lost one of her best friends , Naru. But also she learned how hard it really was to be in a serious relationship. Simple , some people said. Love is enough to pull lovers through the hardest times and they had been right but not completely.

Also Luna had noticed the tension between Rei and Usagi lately , she had already figured out that Mamoru was no longer a part of the blonde's life but still , something was missing.It was like everything was slowly coming together but in pieces , it made no sence to the black cat.

Maybe the future of Crystal Tokyo was already wasted but on the other hand , it was what Setsuna had once said to them : Fear today and forget tomorrow , somehow the green haired time guardian had been right , on the other hand , what would happen to Chibi-usa now ? Was this what queen Serenity had meant so long ago ? We control our own destiny. had been her words but if that were true , then why was everything changing so fast in such a short amount of time ?

'' I think we should kill Mamoru before he tries anything else , i mean he tried to kill Rei.'' Minako said as she followed her other two friends over schoolyard.'' Why don't we use our powers to kill him or torture him ? Or atleast call Haruka again than you can beat him up again , please Makoto !''

The brunette stopped walking away and turned to face her blonde but annoying friend.'' Minako , how much i like that idea of ending his miserable life we can't , he is the prince , no king of the future Tokyo.Have you forgotten all about Chibi-usa already ?''

Minako shook her head.'' No i haven't but there's no way Usagi is going back tot hat pig. I mean Rei really...''

'' Rei is Usagi's guardian.'' Ami interupted.'' We have a mission and you have to snap out of those idiot thoughts of Rei and Usagi being a couple , yes they are good friends even though they pretend to hate eachother but..they aren't lovers.''

'' I agree with Ami.'' Makoto said.

'' Then why did you stop Makoto from following Rei the other day ?'' Minako asked with a slight of anger in her voice.

'' Because Rei also needs to sort things out.'' Was all the blue haired girl said.

Minako just shook her head.'' No , you are lying , you two are too blinded by this damn mission to see what is really there !'' With that she turned around and walked away ignoring Makoto and Ami completely.

'They are wrong , Usagi and Rei will be a couple , they'll see.This stupid mission as blinded all of us even me but this is too important to ignore , i know this is something we can't ignore.' Minako scolded in her mind. It had been one year since they fought their last fight as senshi but still it remained to be parts of their life.

I mean they lived normal lives ? No ofcourse they didn't. They had to prepare themselfs for the future.Their lives would never be the same as they were before they became senshi , never.

R&R ,

in the next chapter : Mamoru will cause for more trouble and a secret that has been kept a sercet for over a thousand years is revealed.
