WELCOME HOME

Queen Minnie had just finished checking on the Cornerstone of Light and was walking out of the Audience Chamber. She forgot to put the throne back over the entrance to the Hall of the Cornerstone. Both King Mickey and Queen Minnie had forgotten to put the throne back over the entrance occasionally. And she had forgotten this time. She walked out into the Audience Chamber and looked up at the pieces of fabric hanging from the ceiling that had the King's seal on them. She thought of her dear and beloved King again. It had been a year since she had seen him in person. Sometimes he would send her a picture of himself with one of his letters. The young Queen had framed every picture he sent and hung them on the walls in their bedroom. She cherished everyone. But the pictures had been the closest she'd been to him in a year. She wanted the real thing. She wanted him back. Her heart felt empty. It felt like a major piece of her was missing. And in truth... There was.

But she never forgot the promise she made to him or the promise he made to her. And she never stopped worrying about him or missing him. She thought about him every single day since he'd been gone. She missed him so much and wanted to see him so badly. But she never gave up hope that they would someday be together again. She had her mind set on trying to learn as much about the darkness and Heartless as she could. She walked out of the Audience Chamber and into the colonnade. She closed the door leading into the room and begun to walk toward the Library.

She walked into the Library and looked up at the large bookshelf at the numerous books that lined its shelves. She had read over them many times, but she continued to read them regardless. Several times, she found something she missed the first time through. She now had nearly as much book knowledge about the Heartless, other worlds and the darkness as her King. And she also had some fighting experience under her belt. She believed in the light and she wielded it, just like her King. She used the step latter and got a book off the shelf. She stepped over to the table and sat down in the chair. Her brown eyes fell upon the picture of her and her King standing side-by-side. How she wanted to see him again. She missed everything about him. She missed him so much. She couldn't help it as a tear strayed down her cheek. She gently ran her fingers across his photo.

"Oh, King Mickey... I wish you were home. I miss you so much. I can't wait to see you again. But don't worry. I'll wait for you. I promised you I would, and I WON'T let you down. I'll wait for as long as it takes." She smiled at his photo and softly blew it a kiss. She wiped her eyes, opened the book and started to read. She left the door that led out of the Library into the colonnade open to let in some fresh air. As she sat, she could hear the birds chirping in the courtyard, and the gentle breezes blowing. But she didn't know that soon, her year-long wait would finally be over.

King Mickey had left Destiny Islands before Donald and Goofy did. He had said his farewells to Sora, Riku and Kairi, and had departed the islands early. Together, with his friends, they had defeated Xemnas, and had vanquished the Heartless. He had came to Destiny Islands with Donald and Goofy through a portal of darkness created by Namine, Kairi's nobody. Once Sora and Riku had returned, they were then reunited with everyone. With his journey now over, the young King now had only one destination in mind: Home.

He jumped in his gummi ship on the beach and jetted off for home. The wizard and knight said they'd be home shortly. The King flew straight for home. He couldn't help but get a little nervous. He hadn't seen his Queen in a full year. He didn't know for sure how she would react to his disappearance and year-long absence, but he did know that he couldn't wait to see her again. He missed her so much and had thought about her every day he was on his quest. He never stopped worrying about her either. But he knew she was strong and could take care of herself. The flight home seemed to take too long. He landed in the Gummi Hanger and jumped out of his ship. The gummi engineers were the first to welcome him home. The sight of his castle was breathtaking and joyous. He asked them were everyone was and they explained were they guessed they were. They told him to check in the Library for the Queen. With that said, he ran up the stairs to the courtyard.

As he opened the doors and stepped out into the courtyard, he instantly felt a sense of peace and tranquility. He took in a breath of fresh air and his nose caught the scent of the flowers. How he had missed that wonderful aroma. He gazed around the courtyard and smiled. Nothing had changed since he left.

"Man, it feels good to be home," he smiled. He started walking through the courtyard and could hear the wistful chirping of the birds and the alluring sound and feel of the gentle breeze blowing. He made his way through the door and into the colonnade. As he walked down the colonnade, he began to whistle a tune familiar to him and his dear and beloved Queen.

Queen Minnie was still in the Library reading, when suddenly her ears twitched and perked up at a familiar and cheerful whistle. Could it be? Her ears and heart knew it anywhere. She gasped softly as her eyes widened and her heart filled with hope.

"Mickey...?" she whispered subconsciously. Her heart rate increased as she bolted out of the chair, nearly turning it over, and dashed straight to the door with hope in her heart. She ran to the door and gazed down the colonnade. There she saw the most joyous and happy thing she could see; Her King. Her heart was suddenly filled with so much joy and happiness it felt like it would explode. Her heart done so many back-flips and somersaults in her chest she lost count.

"Mickey!" she cried happily. The King instantly knew that sweet voice.

"Minnie!" he cried with equal happiness.

Queen Minnie felt hot tears of joy fill her eyes as she bolted out of the doorway and sprinted down the colonnade to her King. King Mickey could feel his own heart do back-flips as he too began sprinting down the colonnade to his Queen. Neither young mouse could hardly believe it. After a year-long wait, they were together again.

Queen Minnie laughed and cried with joy as she ran to her beloved King with open arms. King Mickey was laughing with joy as well as he ran to his Queen with open arms. She ran up to him and flung herself onto him, wrapping her arms around him tightly and holding him as if she'd never let go. He wrapped his arms around her as he twirled her around in his arms once before setting her back on the floor. She continued to cry tears of joy as she embraced him and nestled herself into his embrace. Her heart felt complete again. No pieces were missing. The other half of her heart and soul had returned. She felt complete again. Her heart felt full again. Now it was filled with so much love, joy and happiness it was a wonder it didn't explode. She was so happy it felt as if she were flying. Soaring to his open arms with her arms open to him.

"Oh, Mickey! I'm so glad you're home," she wailed as she cried happily onto his chest. He gently began rubbing one hand up and down her back to comfort her. She pulled back and looked up at him.

"Please tell me this is real. Please tell me this isn't a dream," she said, desperately hoping that this wonderful moment was was real. If this was a dream, she didn't ever want to wake up. He smiled lovingly and placed his hand on her cheek. She could instantly feel the soothing warmth of his hand flow through her. She raised her own hand and placed it on his.

"This is real," she uttered. She gazed into his eyes with her own glistening and glazing over.

"This IS real. I'm home," he smiled soothingly. She smiled and then embraced him again.

"It's okay, Minnie. I'm home. I'm home to stay," he said softly. She pulled back a little and pressed her lips to his almost desperately in a loving and passionate kiss, her leg going up behind her, holding him tight in her arms as he held her. And the moment their lips touched, Queen Minnie felt ecstasy, passion and pleasure pulse throughout her whole body, a wonderful warmth spread all over her and her body shiver happily from the taste and power of of his passionate kiss. King Mickey also felt those same feelings flow throughout his body at the taste and feel of her passionate kiss. They kissed for about six seconds before they broke apart and embraced one another again.

"Oh, Mickey, I love you so much. I love you, I love you, I love you!," she smiled happily as she held him tight. She pulled back and kissed him about five times on his face before she embraced him again.

"I love you, too, Minnie. I love you, too," he smiled happily as he held her tight.

"I missed you so much, Mickey. I was so worried," she uttered.

"I missed you, too, Minnie. I'm all right. And I'm home," he murmured. He felt her squeeze him a little tighter.

"I'm so glad you're home. I'm so happy to have you back."

"I'm happy to be back. It feels great to be home."

"It's great to have you home." She then pulled back and kissed him on his lips again. After a few seconds, she pulled back, then embraced him again. She held him for a few seconds. She suddenly pulled back a little. "Are you okay? Are you hurt? How do you feel?" she asked quickly. He smiled at her.

"I'm okay. I'm home and I feel fine," he smiled. She felt a smile come to her face.

"Oh, Mickey," she smiled as she embraced him again.

"Are you okay?" he asked.

"I am now that you're home," she replied, squeezing him just a little tighter.

The young mouse lovers held each other for a little longer before they pulled back a little and gazed into each others warm and loving chocolate brown eyes as they smiled at one another. Her crying had calmed down a little. Her smile faded at that point.

"I was so worried about you, Mickey. I worried about you everyday. I didn't know where you were, if you were okay, if you needed help, if you were coming home soon." Mickey felt a pang of guilt in his heart. He didn't mean to worry or upset her. His face turned into a guilty expression as he hung his head low and his ears drooped a little. He raised his gaze and met hers.

"I'm so sorry, Minnie. I didn't mean to worry you. But I had to find out what was going on and stop whoever was behind it. I'm sorry I worried you. I'm so sorry." He hung his head as he looked down to the floor. "I'm really sorry, Minnie. I was just trying to protect you. I love you, and I didn't want you to get hurt. I'm sorry. I don't blame you if you for being upset with me." Queen Minnie knew he was sincere. She understood. And she didn't want him to beat himself up over it. She couldn't help but feel sorry for him. She wasn't upset with him. She was glad he was home. And she didn't want him to feel guilty. King Mickey partly expected her to be furious with him. He just stood with his head hung low as he waited for her to scold him. But what she did surprised him.

Queen Minnie gently place her fingers under King Mickey's chin and lifted his gaze to meet hers. And when his face met hers, she was smiling. Her eyes were still glistening and her smile was warm and loving. She gently slid her hand up to his cheek and begun to stroke it tenderly with her thumb.

"It's okay, Mickey. Don't worry. I'm not upset. I forgive you," she smiled tenderly. He was a little shocked.

"Y-you do? You're not upset?" he asked. She shook her head.

"No. I understand why you left without telling me. And if I were in your place, I woulda done the same thing to protect you, too. I'm not upset at all. I forgive you. But that's all in the past. And I'm willing to leave it there if you are. What matters to me is that you're home," she smiled. Her words were sincere and loving.

"Thanks, Minnie," he smiled.

"You're welcome, Mickey," she smiled they then embraced again. The Queen heard him sniff, so she pulled back a little. It was then that she noticed a tear stray down her King's cheek.

"Mickey?" she asked. It weren't very often she ever seen him cry. He smiled a little.

"Sorry, Minnie. I'm just so happy to be home and to be with you again," he said. She smiled and felt her own eyes begin to tear up again as she gazed into his.

"Oh, Mickey," she uttered as she embraced him again. "I'm happy to have you home and to be with you again, too." They each pulled back a little.

"I love you," they each smiled in unison.

"I love you, too," they each smiled again. They touched their noses together, and pulled back a few seconds later.

"Welcome home, King Mickey. Welcome back," Queen Minnie smiled.

"Thanks, Queen Minnie. It's great to be home again," King Mickey smiled.

"It's great to have you home again," she added. They smiled, leaned close and kissed. They broke the kiss and pulled back a few seconds later.

"Minnie, I was gone for so long, and I'm so sorry. I want to make it up to you. All the time we were apart, I want to make it all up to you. Starting now," he said. She smiled.

"Oh, Mickey. It's okay. I want to make it up to you, too. All the time we were apart, I want to make all of it up to you, too. Starting now," she smiled. He smiled.

"We can't change our past..." he smiled.

"...But we can make our future," she finished with a smile. She leaned up and kissed him on his cheek. He grinned his goofy grin, which made her giggle. He then picked her up in his arms and twirled her around a couple times in the air. She giggled as he did this. Both young mouse lovers were loving being together again. He gently set her back on the floor.

"How is everything?" he asked.

"Everything's fine now that you're home," she replied, touching her nose to his. They shared a smile. Then she turned a little serious. "Everything's okay. The Cornerstone's okay, and the castle is still safe." He nodded with a smile. "You must be exhausted from your journey," she said soothingly.

"Yeah, I am pretty tired," he replied.

"Well now you're home. So I want you to just relax and take it easy. You deserve it," she said.

"Okay," he smiled.

"And I want to hear all about your journey. Every little detail," she grinned.

"I'd be happy to tell you," he grinned. The Queen then realized something.

"Where are the others? Aren't they here, too?" she asked.

"Not yet. Donald and Goofy are on their way here. They should be here soon. The Door to Darkness is closed, and Sora, Riku and Kairi are back on their island," he responded.

"Daisy will be glad to see Donald again. And Max will be glad to see his dad. I know I'm glad to see you," she smiled, brushing her front against his.

"I'm glad to see you, too," he smiled, returning her action. She then wrapped her arm around his.

"How about we go relax in the courtyard? Just you and me," she asked.

"Sure. I'd like that," he replied. They started to walk arm-in-arm down the colonnade together. Lady Daisy suddenly appeared around the corner of the colonnade and spotted the King.

"Your Majesty!" she called, waving to him. She then begun to run up to the mice.

"Hi, Daisy," both mice said. She ran up to them.

"It's good to see you back, Your Majesty. Where's Donald?" she asked.

"He and Goofy should be back soon. I left before them. They should be here shortly," he replied.

"Don't worry, Daisy. Donald will be back soon," the Queen smiled. Lady Daisy smiled a little and nodded.

"Oh! I forgot to put the throne back over the entrance to the Hall of the Cornerstone," the Queen said suddenly.

"Don't worry, Minnie. I've forgotten it before, too. It's no big deal. We'll just put it back," the King smiled. The Queen smiled and nodded.

"You can come too, Daisy," the Queen said. The Lady-in-Waiting nodded. She, King Mickey and Queen Minnie walked into the Audience Chamber, the King and Queen arm-in-arm.

"When Donald comes back, will it be to stay?" Lady Daisy asked. The King and Queen turned to her and each noticed the concern in her voice and features. The Queen let her arm slip from the King's.

"I'll go ahead and put the throne back," she smiled, then gave him a warm pack on his cheek. "I'll be right back."

"I'll be up in a moment," he smiled. She nodded and begun walking up the red carpet to the throne. The King then turned to the Lady-in-Waiting.

"Yep. The darkness is gone. So when Donald gets back, it'll be to stay," he answered. The Lady-in-Waiting smiled and nodded.
She turned back to look up toward the throne.

"He'll be home soon," he added.

"Actually..." a voice said behind them. The King, Queen and Lady-in-Waiting both turned to see the wizard, knight, the wizard's uncle Scrooge, his nephews and the King's dog, Pluto, standing there.

"I'm home now," the wizard grinned.

"Donald!" the Lady-in-Waiting exclaimed as she ran to him and embraced him. The King smiled, then turned and started to run up the carpet to his Queen. He sprinted up to the throne just as it slid back over the entrance to the Hall of the Cornerstone.

"Donald and Daisy sure seem happy to be back together," he said. The Queen turned and saw them.

"Yeah, they do. And I know just how they feel," she smiled.

"So do I," he smiled back. King Mickey and Queen Minnie each stepped toward each other and took each others hands in front of the throne. They both smiled at one another as they each leaned close and touched their noses together. A few seconds later, each pulled back and smiled at one another. They then embraced each other.

"It feels so good to have you home, Mickey," she uttered as she held him and nestled herself into his embrace.

"It feels good to be home, Minnie," he murmured as he held her. They each pulled back and she gave him a loving kiss on his cheek. He grinned, then gave her a warm kiss on her forehead. She then wrapped her arm around his.

"How about we have a picnic in the courtyard? I'll make you a nice, warm ham and cheese sandwich," she smiled.

"You don't have to do that," he said.

"I want to. I know it's been a while since you had one of my sandwiches," she replied.

"Yeah, it has been," he said with a grin, rubbing the back of his head.

"Well then, come on. Whaddaya say?" she grinned.

"Okay. I'd like that," he smiled.

"Good," she smiled, giving him a playful peck on his nose. "C'mon," she smiled giving his arm a gentle tug. "Lets go have our picnic."

"Right beside you," he smiled. She gently brushed her side against his as they began walking out of the Audience Chamber.

King Mickey and Queen Minnie relaxed in the courtyard together after having their picnic. They sat looking up at the clouds floating by. Both felt happy and content. They were together again. As they enjoyed their picnic, he told her everything about his journey. From the moment he first noticed the stars blinking out to the moment when he, Sora, Donald, Goofy and Riku closed the door to darkness. He told her about how he helped Riku in Castle Oblivion, to the moment he found Xemnas in the Dark Depths at Hollow Bastion. From the moment he, Sora, Donald and Goofy arrived at The World That Never Was to the moment they faced Xemnas for the final time, and then when he left Destiny Islands for home.

Queen Minnie was shocked. She didn't know he had been through so much. He had told her about how his mission was going in his letters, but he didn't tell her about the dangers or the hardships he faced. It tugged at her heart. If she had been with him at the Door to Darkness, she would have stayed behind the door with him. She would been mad and hurt too when they thought they had lost Goofy at Hollow Bastion. And she would have jumped through the portal of darkness with her King after Xemnas at Hollow Bastion. She would have stayed by her King the whole time if she had been there. She couldn't help but feel guilty and hurt. Hurt that he done all that alone. And she couldn't help it as tears beaded in the corners of her eyes. She threw her arms around him and held him tight.

"Oh, Mickey, I'm so sorry. I didn't know you went through all that. I should have been there with you. Not stuck at this castle. You shouldn't have had to face all that by yourself. I'm so sorry," she whimpered onto his chest. He wrapped his arms around her and begun to comfort her.

"There, there. It's okay, Minnie. I'm not upset with you. I forgive you. Don't worry about it. I'm glad you were here. I wanted you to be safe. I didn't want you to face what I did. I wanted you safe," he whispered. She pulled back and gazed into his brown eyes with her own brown eyes watering.

"I know, but you shouldn't have faced all that alone. It wasn't fair. I should have been there to help you," she said.

"You did help me," he smiled. She sniffed before she spoke.

"How?"

"You stayed here. And you waited for me. That helped me in a big way. Knowing you were safe, and that I could come home to you gave me something to fight for. If I was ever in doubt, all I had to do was think of you, and that drove me to keep fighting. Because I knew I had something worth fighting for." The Queen couldn't help but feel enlightened by his kind words. And she couldn't help but smile.

"Aw, Mickey," she smiled. She then embraced him and he her. "I'm so sorry you went through all that."

"That's okay. It was worth it to get to come home to you." She hugged him a little tighter.

"Thank you."

"You're welcome." They each pulled back a little and kissed. They then nuzzled together and sat shoulder-to-shoulder.

She then begun to explain how everything went while he was gone. From her finding out he was gone to her getting his letter with the ring. From her training with Master Yen Sid to the Heartless appearing in the castle. From when Sora, Donald and Goofy saved the castle to when he came home. King Mickey was shocked this time. He didn't know she had been through so much. He didn't know that Maleficent had tried to take over the castle. And he didn't know that his sweet and kind Queen had face the Heartless. It tugged at his heart. If he had've known about the castle and her being in danger, he would have come home right away. He would have stayed until he knew she and the castle were safe. He couldn't help but feel guilty and hurt. Hurt that she had faced all that by herself. And he couldn't help it as tears beaded in the corners of his eyes. He wrapped his arms around her and held her tight.

"I'm so sorry, Minnie. I didn't know you went through all that. I should have came back to check on things. You shouldn't have had to do all that by yourself. I'm so sorry," he whimpered. She wrapped her arms around him and begun to comfort him.

"There, there. It's okay, Mickey. You didn't know. I'm not upset with you. I forgive you. Don't worry about it. You had to do what you did. If you hadn't, the darkness would still be a threat, and some worlds would be gone. You saved those worlds," she whispered. He pulled back and gazed into her brown eyes with his own glazing over.

"I know, but you shouldn't have done all that by yourself. It wasn't fair. I should have checked up on things," he said.

"Everything turned out fine. You did help me," she smiled.

"How?"

"You came home to me. You did your duty. You save the worlds. You saved so many people and their homes. And you taught me magic. You taught me what I needed to know to help save our home. And I knew that you'd come home. Knowing that you were out there fighting and that you'd come home gave me something to fight for, too. If I was ever in doubt, all I had to do was think of you and that drove me to keep fighting. Because I knew I had something worth fighting for, too." The King couldn't help but smile and feel enlightened by her kind words.

"Aw, gosh," he smiled. He then embraced her as she embraced him. "I'm so sorry you had to face all that."

"That's all right. It was worth it to get to have you home." He hugged her closer.

"Thanks."

"You're welcome." They each pulled back and kissed. They smiled as they looked at each other.

"The past is the past, but this is the present. I'm willing to leave the past behind me, if you are," she smiled.

"I'm willing to leave the past behind me, and focus on the present and the future, if you are," he smiled.

"To now, and the future," she smiled.

"To now, and the future," he smiled back. They each leaned close and shared a gentle kiss. They pulled back and smiled at one another. The King then remembered the ring on his Queen's finger.

"Do you like the ring I sent you?"

"I love it. It's so beautiful. And you even used some of your magic on it. That makes it even more special. I love it. Thank you so much, Mickey," Queen Minnie smiled as she leaned close and gave him a warm kiss on his cheek.

"Aw, gosh. You're welcome, Minnie. I'm glad you like it," King Mickey smiled.

"It sure feels good for us to be able to eat out here together again," she smiled.

"Yes, it does. I really missed this," he replied.

"Me, too. But now we can eat together out here whenever we want," she smiled. She gently kissed his cheek. The Queen then remembered something.

"Oh! Come here," she said as she stood up and took her King's hands.

"What is it?" he asked curiously, standing up.

"I wanna show you something," she replied. She led him over to this beautiful rose bush with thorn-less roses on it.

"Remember the rose you left me?" she asked.

"Yeah. I left it on the table on our balcony." She pointed to the bush.

"I planted it. And it grew into this." The King was amazed. He always said that she had a green-thumb. It touched him deeply that she kept the ring AND the rose.

"Wow. It's beautiful," he said.

"I wanted to keep it. So I planted it, hoping it would live. And it did," she inquired.

"It looks beautiful." An idea popped into his mind. He gently picked a rose, turned to her, and gently placed it in her hair in front of her left ear. "But not as beautiful as you," he smiled softly.

"Aw, Mickey," she cooed as she wrapped her arms around his neck. "And it's not as handsome as you," she smiled softly. He wrapped his arms around her waist. As he held her, she gently picked another rose and gently placed it on the left side of his shirt. "Now you have one, too." They each chuckled as they leaned close and touched their noses together. They pulled back and stared into each others eyes.

"I love so much, Mickey," Queen Minnie smiled. "I'm so glad you're home."

"I love you, too, Minnie. So much," King Mickey smiled. "It's good to be home." They then embraced each other.

"Welcome home, sweetie," she uttered.

"Thanks, doll," he murmured. They each pulled back and gazed up at the sky. The sun was beginning to set.

"How about we watch the sunset together?" she asked with a smile.

"I was just about to ask you the same thing," he replied.

"Great minds and hearts think alike," she giggled.

"Especially when they're connected," he chuckled. She gave him a warm kiss on his cheek, making him grin a goofy grin and causing her to chuckle.

"Come on. Lets go," he smiled.

"Right beside you," she smiled. He held out his arm a little.

"M'lady," he smiled coyly.

"Why, thank you," she smiled sweetly. She wrapped her arm around his and they began walking through the courtyard.

King Mickey and Queen Minnie sat snuggled up together on the swing on their balcony enjoying the sunset together. Both were happy and thankful to be together again. They sat their until the stars came out.

"At least the stars are at peace now," he said quietly.

"Yeah, they are. Thanks to you," she smiled up at him.

"I didn't do it alone. I couldn't have done it without the others," he said.

"Maybe not, but they couldn't have done it without you, either," she said. He smiled. "You're a hero, Mickey. You may not thinks so, but you ARE. You're the worlds hero, and you're my hero. And I'm so proud of you," she smiled, giving him a kiss on his cheek.

"Thanks, Minnie. I'm proud of you, too. You're my hero, too," he smiled. She snuggled closer to him as they continued to watch the stars a little longer. After a little longer, Queen Minnie looked up at King Mickey and smiled.

"How about we turn in early tonight? I know you're tired," she said.

"Okay. I am a little tired. But I'm just so glad to be home," he smiled.

"I'm so glad you're home, too," she smiled. She leaned up and gave him a loving peck on his cheek. She then sat up and took his hands into hers. He smiled as he stood up in front of her.

"You deserve a good rest," she smiled.

"So do you," he smiled. She chuckled and leaned up to kiss him gently on his nose.

"Lets go inside," she smiled, taking his hand.

"Alright," he smiled. The young mice walked hand-in-hand into their bedroom and closed the doors to the balcony behind them.

"I need to take a shower," he said.

"I need to take one, too," she said. "You'll feel better after you shower. A nice warm shower will do you good," she smiled.

"Oh, it'll feel good, alright," he grinned. Their hands slipped away as he walked to the bathroom door across their bedroom. He opened the door and walked in. She followed him inside the bathroom.

"Why don't I make your shower a little warmer?" she said with a sly and wide grin. He seen her devious grin and had an idea of what she had in mind. He began to return her grin.

"Can we shower together?" they both asked with a wide grin.

"Sure!" they both replied eagerly.

"Wait right here," Queen Minnie said with a grin. She ran out of their bathroom and into their bedroom. She ran over to their nightstand, opened a drawer and pulled out a hanging door sign that read DO NOT DISTURB. Below that was written WE MEAN IT! She opened their bedroom door and hung it on the knob outside, then she closed the door and locked it. She then sprinted back into the bathroom to her waiting lover. She closed the bathroom door and locked it behind her.

"Now we can shower together in piece," she grinned.

"It's just you and me," he added with a wide grin. Queen Minnie walked up to King Mickey and wrapped her arms around his neck as he wrapped his arms around her waist.

"Just you and me. This is 'US' time," she smiled a little seductively.

"I have a feeling this will be a longer shower than I first thought. But that's okay. I don't see anything wrong with it," he grinned. She chuckled as she raised her right hand and gently stroked her right index finger along the bottom of his left ear playfully.

"I don't see anything wrong with spending an hour or so in the shower, either. It'll be fun," she grinned back with a seductive tone.

"Oh, you got that right," he smiled. They each chuckled and touched their noses together. They pulled back after a few seconds.

"I'll let you undress first," he offered.

"No, you go first," she replied.

"No, you go first. I'll do it after you," he said.

"Okay," she smiled. Queen Minnie backed up some and stood facing him as she removed her tiara, setting it on the sink. She removed the rose from in front of her left ear and placed it on the sink. She then kicked off her pumps. She then undone the bow on the back of her dress and then unzipped it. She blushed a little as she slipped off her dress and let it fall to the tile floor with her shoes, revealing her underwear. King Mickey's eyes widened and he gulped as his cheeks began to get warm. There she stood in her underwear, smiling warmly at him and blushing. Her white, cotton bikini and white, cotton, spaghetti-strap cami undershirt was eye popping to him. Her cami had a picture of his head and face on the chest. Queen Minnie felt her cheeks get even warmer when she noticed the lump forming in the front of his shorts. She giggled as she saw this and the wide grin on his face.

"Like what you see?" she asked playfully.

"Ohh, yeah," he grinned. She chuckled.

"Your turn, your royal hotness," she grinned. He removed the rose from his shirt and placed it on the sink alongside hers. He kicked off his shoes, and slipped off his socks. Then he pulled off his shirt and dropped it on the floor with his shoes. She felt her cheeks get warm as she saw his bare upper torso. He then pulled off his shorts and tossed them on the tile floor with his shirt, revealing his underwear. Queen Minnie's eyes widened and she gulped as her cheeks began to get warm. There he stood in his underwear, smiling at her and blushing a little. His white, cotton boxers and bare upper torso was eye popping to her.

"Like what you see?" he asked with a knowing grin.

"Ohh, yeah," she grinned. He chuckled. By know, their embarrassment began to fade, and they felt more eager and confident. She then slipped her off gloves and dropped them with the rest of her clothes. Then she pulled off her undershirt and dropped it on the floor. Then she slipped off her panties and dropped it with her clothes. King Mickey felt multiple parts of him, mainly his lower pelvic region, getting warmer. His Queen was standing completely nude in front of him. He thought it was the most beautiful sight in the whole wide world. In all the worlds for that matter. She grinned as she noticed the bulge in the front of his underwear reach it's full length. He just stood there grinning madly as his eyes took in every inch of her delicate and beautiful young body. She hadn't changed in the past year. Her small, slender and lightly curvy body still made his eyes, and a certain part of his male anatomy, bulge. She giggled. She loved to see him react like this.

"Better close your mouth before your tongue falls out," she giggled. He then shook his head as he closed his mouth.

"Sorry about that. You always do that to me," he grinned sheepishly.

"It's okay. It tickles me to see you react like that," she smiled. He slipped off his gloves and dropped them on the floor. Then he slipped off his boxers and dropped it with his clothes. Queen Minnie felt multiple parts of her, mainly her lower pelvic region, getting warmer. Her King was standing completely nude in front of her. She thought it was the most amazing sight in the whole wide world. In all of the worlds actually. She just stood there grinning madly as her eyes danced across every inch of his gorgeous and handsome young body. He hadn't changed in the past year, either. His small, slender and lightly muscular body, still made her eyes, and a certain part of her female anatomy, bulge. He chuckled. He loved to see her react like this too.

"Now you better close your mouth before your tongue falls out," he chuckled. She shook her head as she closed her mouth.

"Sorry. You always do that to me," she grinned sheepishly.

"Don't worry. I'm glad to see you react like that," he smiled. She strode up to him and wrapped her arms around his neck, pressing her bare front comfortably against his. He wrapped his arms around her waist, pressing his bare front comfortably against hers. His warm, bare body felt good against hers. And her warm, bare body felt good against his. Both of their temperatures begun to rise higher.

"Do you know how long it's been since we done anything like this?" he asked.

"Yeah, it has been a while. But now you're home, and we're together again. We can do it whenever we want," she smiled.

"I'm sorry I was gone for so long," he said with some sorrow in his voice.

"That's okay. You're home now. And that's what matters," she smiled soothingly

"still... I'm sorry I was gone fo-" She cut him off as she pressed her lips to his. She pulled back and smiled.

"Don't worry about it. That was the past. This is the present. You're home and we're together again. That's what matters. Let's focus on the present and put the past behind us," she smiled.

"Thanks, doll," he smiled.

"You're welcome, baby," she smiled. She touched her nose to his. "And now we can do whatever we want," she added.

"Yeah... We can," he smiled. "I've been to many worlds, seen many things... But I've never seen anything even half as beautiful as you, Minnie," he smiled warmly.

"Aw, Mickey," she cooed as she embraced him. She pulled back and smiled. "I could search every world, but I know I would never see anything even half as gorgeous as you are, Mickey," she smiled warmly. She leaned up and pressed her lips to his, her leg rising behind her. He began to rub one hand up and down her bare back. About five seconds later, she broke the kiss and pulled back a little to meet his smile and eyes. As he gently stroked his fingertips up and down her back, he couldn't help but relish the feel of her soft, smooth and tender skin beneath his fingertips or the feel of her warm and soft body in his arms. She relished the feel of his soft and tender skin beneath her fingertips too as she stroked her fingers up and down his back, and of his warm body in her arms.

"I love you so much, Mickey," she uttered.

"I love you, too, Minnie. So much," he murmured. She leaned up and kissed him softly on his cheek.

"So, ya ready to have some wet fun?" she asked with a playful, eager and seductive grin.

"You betcha! I've been waiting a long time to get to do something with you again," he replied with an eager and seductive grin.

"So have I," she giggled.

"Are you ready to get wet?" he asked.

"You bet!" she replied. She glanced down to a certain part of his male body and back up with a wide grin. "I see you're excited," she grinned playfully.

"I think that's obvious," he grinned. She giggled before she spoke.

"I'm excited, too," she giggled. "You're 'friend' must be very happy," she added with a chuckle.

"Oh, it's VERY happy," he grinned. She pressed her front closer against his.

"You may not can see it right now, but my 'little friend' is VEERRY happy, too," she grinned a little seductively. She kissed him, then pulled back.

"C'mon! Let's take our shower!" he grinned eagerly.

"You got it!" she grinned excitedly.

The young King and Queen kept one arm around each other as they stepped over into their bathtub, and began to shower together.
