Bright sunshine shone through the window of Serena's bedroom. There she laid in her bed breathing softly, the sun shone on her in such a way making her look heavenly. And then she slowly woke.

Her eyes fluttered open, suddenly squinting at the brightness of the sun shine. She groaned slightly, sitting up in her soft bed. Yawning and stretching her arms she stumbled out of bed and out of her room.

"Morning sleepy head" Vicky beamed

It was sickening at how she was so bubbly and bright in the morning.

"Hmmph" Serena mumbled, walking into the kitchen and filling the kettle with water.

Vicky giggled slightly

"How can you be so energetic and happy in the morning?" Serena grunted

"Because its 2 o'clock in the afternoon"

Serena gasped "Oh my god! I'm going to be late for work!!!" She screamed, darting out of the kitchen and into her bedroom

"Serena…" Vicky called

"Not now Vick, im late!!" Came a quick reply

"Serena…" She called again

"I'm sooo late!"

"SERENA!" Vicky shouted

Serena's door opened and a red face popped out from in the room.

"What is it Vicky?" Serena scowled

"Its Saturday, you don't work on Saturdays…"

Her eyes widened and she started to giggle, Vicky smiled at her.

"Im such a dummy!" Serena giggled walking back into her bedroom.

Half an hour later Serena came back out again, wearing a baby pink turtle neck sweater with white jeans that hugged her legs perfectly.

"Serena, I've got to go sort out some Erins, we should go out to dinner tonight, yea?" Vicky said coming out of the bathroom.

"Sure" Serena smiled, sitting on the couch and turning on the TV. Just as Vicky was about to walk out of the door the bell rang. Vicky opened the door to find Nate smiling widely at her

"Hello Nate!" Vicky greeted

"Hello Vicky, is Serena here?" He replied

"Yea sure, she's sitting on the couch. See ya!" She walked down the corridor and out of sight.

Nate walked in and closed to door behind him.

"Hello?" He called

"In here" Came a quiet voice

Nate followed the voice to find Serena hunched up on the couch, watching Charmed

Nate smiled at the peaceful face his princess held.

Serena looked at him and gave him a bright smile "I haven't watched this for years" She said, turning her head back towards the TV.

"I came here to see if you were ok, you were pretty upset the other day…" Nate stated

"Im fine, thank you for your concern…" Serena said, just then the phone rang and Serena ran to pick it up.

"Hello?"

Nate watched as the peaceful look on Serena's face faded quickly into shock, panic, guilt and worry. Her eyes filled with water and a short gasp came from her lips.

"O…Ok…No… don't worry… I'll be fine… take care of him…" She stuttered, and then she put down the phone, collapsing to her knees.

Nate ran to her and dropped beside her.

"Who was it!? What's happened?" He asked

Tears poured down her red rosy cheeks, she lifted her head and she gazed into his deep hazel eyes. He stared at her watering pools of guilt and anguish.

"He tried to take his own life…" She whispered, burying her head in her hands and crying.

"Who Serena?"

"Mamoru… Mum said that he wrote a note, took pills…. And Rei found him… unconscious, not breathing" Sobs caught in her throat as a salty river trailed down her face.

Nate brought her into his arms and held her fiercely, rubbing her back soothingly.

"Mum asked me if I wanted to go back…"

"Do you?" He asked, looking at her full of sympathy

"I don't know!!"

Nate took her small hand and put it gently over her heart

"Listen to the beats of your heart…." He told her, she closed her eyes and drank it the rhythmic beat of her heart.

"Listen to your heart, what is it telling you to do?"

Serena remained with her eyes close, concentrating on her soul, on her heart. Her eyes opened and she looked straight at Nate.

"It's broken…." She whispered, she closed her eyes again. "It's telling me to go back…" She opened her eyes slowly again, water still leaking from her crystal blue wonders.

"Well then… What are you going to do? Are you going to listen to your mind or are you going to listen to your heart?"

"I remember….On the moon… Back when I was a princess… my mother always used to say… listen to your heart, there lies the truth and the truth you shall always follow… The truth…shall set you free…" Serena sighed deeply

"Wise words... from a wise leader" Nate looked at Serena and smiled slightly

"Im trapped Nate" She looked at him again and her eyes shimmered with tears.

"Then follow the truth" He looked back at her

She sighed and looked away, getting up and looking out of the window at the burning sun. "But will it set me free? What is the truth?!?..."

"Only you and your heart know that Princess…. Ask your soul not me…"

"He tried to take his life because of me….Maybe its best if I stay away…" She sighed again.

"Staying away is what put him in that hospital… If you go back you don't have to be Usagi…. You can still be Serena…"

"I think you and I both know that I haven't been Serena for quiet some time Nate…" Serena said "Least I know why I've been having them strange dreams…." Her voice broke and tears built up again

"He was asking for help, through our bond that I've blocked for so long, his desperation was so strong and yet I continued to ignore it… It's all my fault…" She sobbed

"Then go to him, fix it… I know you love him… there's no point in trying to push it away anymore Serena, Its obvious…He cant live without you and I don't think you can live without him for much longer…"

Serena ran to Nate and hugged him fiercely

"Im taking the next flight out the Japan. I'll leave Vicky a note…"

Nate smiled at the strong warrior in front of him. It's about time for old lovers to reunite.
