A/N: I keep forgetting to put a disclaimer on my author notes. Sorry about that. Sailor Moon isn't mine, I just use the character for enjoyment.

Darien

I wake up hearing soft snoring in my ear. I try to get up but I notice a weight on my left side. I fully wake up and see Serena still sleeping with me on the sofa. I feel like a creep for watching her sleep but I can't help it. I brush away a few hairs from her forehead so I can fully see her face.

That little movement wakes her. When she stretches it makes my t-shirt she's wearing rise up. I can't stop from glancing at her creamy white legs. I resist the strong urge to feel her legs.

"Morning," I hear he softly mumble.

I snap my head up from her legs and smile at her. "Morning, guess you never went back to your bed huh?"

Serena blushes. "Nope," she laughs.

"What time do you girls have class today?"

Serena yawns and tucks her head back into the crock of my neck. "I don't have class today, but Mina does at noon."

"So you need to get home then?" Serena just nods and begins to go back to sleep. "We should go then."

She groans and gets up from the sofa and me. As soon as she's gone I miss her warmth. By the time I get up she's already gone in the bathroom.

Kunzite comes out of his room… and so does Mina. I raise an eyebrow at him. He just blushes. He mouths later and I smile.

"I'll fix us some breakfast then we all need to talk." Kunzite motions me to follow him into the kitchen.

"So what happened with Mina last night?" I smirk.

Kunzite shakes his head and turns serious. "Darien, I don't want to frighten you but I haven't heard from anyone in about two days. I've tried contacting Jadeite but I haven't heard anything back."

I get a bad feeling. "Maybe I should try to contact father?"

Kunzite shakes his head, "I don't think that'd be a good idea. I don't want to give away our position."

"Shit," I rub my forehead and try to collect my thoughts. "We need to tell the girls we're transferring in their classes. We need to keep an eye out for Diamond."

He agrees and quickly throws together breakfast. As I make coffee and toast I try to come up with some way to tell the girls about school.

After breakfast is eaten I motion everyone into the living room.

"Girls," Kunzite calls for their attention. Serena and Mina take a seat on the large sofa and wait for Kunz to continue. "Darien and I have something really important we wish to discuss with you."

I step forward to continue the conversation. "Kunzite and I only came to Earth to look for you two. And now that we've found you there is no reason to continue college." I take a moment to pause. "We haven't heard from the Underworld in about two days. We think something may have happened. I think Diamond is an even greater risk right now."

Serena looks so serious. "What would you like us to do?"

I take a deep breath, "If it's alright with you girls, we'd like to keep you in sight. I'm really afraid, with not hearing from the Underworld in so long that we could be under attack."

"So are you guys going to be dropping out from school?" Mina asks.

"Well, sort of. We still need to remain on campus so we're going to drop all of our current classes. Then we're going to enroll in your classes." Both girls nod in understanding. "Kunzite will remain with Mina and I will remain with Serena. I also think we should stay either here or at your place. Which would you prefer?"

Serena looks towards Mina and nods her head. "We'd like to stay at our house," Serena says.

I nod in understanding and look to Kunzite. "Well, we can pack some things and take you both over to your house so Mina can get ready." I look back at the girls. "We'll need to sweep the house as well. Just in case Diamond found out where you girls live."

After that Kunz and I hop in my car following the girls back to their place. Pulling up I stop the girls from getting out of their car. I tell them to just hang out in the car while Kunz and I begin up the steps.

Walking in I see that everything is looks normal but I notice there are too many flowers around. I motion Kunz towards the flowers and make him stop. I quickly make my way out to the girl's car.

Serena rolls down the window, "Hey, do you have a lot of flowers in the house?"

Serena shakes her head no, "No, Mina's has really bad allergies. All of that pollen would really irate her."

I run back into the house and see Kunzite standing where I left him. "Don't touch the flowers," I command him. I slowly make my way over to the flowers. As soon as I near the closed lilies, they open. "Shit," I mutter. I move even closer and barely peek over into the center of the flower.

In the middle of the flower is Diamonds third eye. I quickly turn back and shut my eyes. "His powers have grown," I open my eyes once I'm fully turned. "His third eye is in the center of all these flowers." I recall Diamond only being able to use the third eye on his forehead. It looks like now he can spread his third eye…

"Fuck," Kunz curses.

"Cover them then take them out to the back; set them on fire." I take another look around the living room. "I'm going to search the other rooms and see if I see anything."

Kunzite nods and grabs a kitchen towel to throw over the flowers. I make my way around the kitchen and dining room before making my way upstairs. I check the hall closet, bathroom, Mina's room and Serena's room; nothing. Going down into the basement, I don't see anything and go back up stairs. I walk out into the back and see Kunz setting a small fire for the flowers.

"Its all clear," I call out to him.

"Okay!" He yells back.

Walking back to the girl's I motion them to come on out.

"Find anything?" Serena asks.

I nod, "Yeah, we found Diamond's third eye."

Serena looks shocked. "What?"

I take a moment trying to think how to explain it. "Diamond has the gift of hypnotizing people with his third eye. But now it seems that his powers have grown, he can place the third eye anywhere. The third eye can hypnotize you into thinking anything he wants."

I hear Mina gasp. "It's alright, we got them all out."

I hear Kunzite walking towards us; he's holding a burn piece of paper. "It's from Jadeite."

Dar,

Diamond is here in the Underworld. I'm sorry but he has killed your father. Diamond and his men have no idea where we are. I've kept the court safe. I have an inside man working for Diamond and he reports that Diamond knows your location. However, he doesn't know exactly where you or your bride lives. Diamond is sending Youma's your way. I'm trying to find his weak point but it's hard to plan an attack with you and Kunzite gone.

Be safe, Prince.

"Youma's," I mutter to myself.

"Youma's?" Mina asks.

"They're monsters from the Underworld," Kunzite says. He grabs Mina's hand comforts her.

"They're used for our most severe cases in the Underworld. They were basically created for torture." I say.

"And they're coming for us?" Serena whispers.

I nod.

Serena

Darien looks down at the letter and just stares at it. "My father is dead," he chokes out.

I gasp and hug Darien. I feel him drop the letter and hug me back. He rests his head against my shoulder and sighs. I can feel his tears run down my neck.

"Come on," Kunzite says softly. "It's not safe to be out in the open."

Darien doesn't let me go completely and leaves his right arm around me. After we walk in and settle down in the living room I make Darien a cup of tea. I hand it to him and he pulls me down on the sofa next to him.

"Will it be safe to go to school?" Mina asks. She and Kunz are sitting in the love seat across from our long sofa.

"I'm not sure. I want to say we should hide out in the basement but…" Darien pauses. "I'm not sure where the Youma's will attack. Diamond doesn't know where we are specially; just the city. But I can't stand by and let him kill innocent people."

"You're going to fight," I state.

Darien glances at me and nods.

"I should get ready for school," Mina says. I look at her and notice her eyes are empty. I get up and walk with her.

Once we're up stairs and in her room I ask what's wrong. "Mina, what's going on?"

Mina sits on her bed and places her head in her hands. "I don't know. I think I'm in shock. I just need to get away and go to class."

I nod, "I understand. I think we all need a distraction."

Mina nods and moves to get in the shower. I leave her room and go back down stairs. Darien and Kunz haven't moved.

"Kunz," I call to get his attention. He looks up at me, "I need you to distract her. Make her forget about all this. Just act like it's another day. Just be the boyfriend that walks his girlfriend to class."

Kunzite nods and goes up to her room.

Soon, they leave for Mina's class. Leaving me with Darien.

I sit next to him and grab his hand. Darien lays his head on my shoulder. "My dad was a good guy and a great ruler. I never told him that."

I can't help but think of my Gran. She's the one who raised me and I never got to tell her how much I appreciated her. "I'm sure he knew you loved him. I never did tell my Gran how much she meant to me."

I raise my left arm and wrap it around him. I then run my hand up and down his back. Threading my fingers through his hair I hear Darien sigh heavily.

He wraps his arms around me tight and brings his lips to my ear. "I'm so grateful for you," he whispers.

I blush and smile at his sweet words. Darien slowly moves my hair away from my neck completely and runs his nose along my neck. I then feel his lips press lightly, lingeringly, against my throat. I shiver. I let out a deep sigh becoming devoted to sensation. As if in a trance, I lean my head back to give him better access. Darien takes it and kisses my throat and below my ear.

"Serena," he whispers. I have to stain to hear him. I feel him move from me and I pull back just enough to look at him. He looks into my eyes, almost searching for something.

And then slowly he comes closer to me. I unconsciously lick my lips. His eyes dart down to my lips and he licks his. As soon as his nose is touching mine my eyes flutter close.

With that Darien kisses me.
