Chapter 9- please forgive me
Keiichi was sat on the bed cradling Serenity who was sobbing brokenly. Keiichi was having difficulty keeping his mask on but he had to stay strong for his sister. He would cry later when he was back with his wife. Realising how much he had really lost 2 years ago in truth he hadn't just lost his step mum, brother and father. He had also lost part of his sister, knowing now she would never be the same again, he felt his eyes sting with tears whether it was rage or hurt or a mixture of both he was unsure but he was unable to hold them in so he wept silently.
"Don't hide behind your mask Keiichi I know you're crying. You don't need to hide it for me" Serenity whispered brokenly. "I know but I need to be strong imoto-chan for you" he said as he faced her. "iie onii-chan you don't. You're my big brother and I love you so much. Just please let go of your mask just this once." She said wiping her eyes.
"Okay on one condition" Keiichi said. Serenitys eyes narrowed and she clenched her teeth "don't...even...think...about...pushing...your...luck...onii-chan" she growled low. Keiichi gave a look of terror. He hated pushing his sisters buttons but sometimes it was the only way she'd listen. "Listen to mother when we go up there and marry Endymion as soon as possible, he loves you Serenity he has done for a millennia you should have seen him last night when you collapsed I made a joke at his expense and the look he gave me honestly 'Reni' if looks could kill I would be dead by now" Keiichi admitted. Serenitys eyes widened "what did he say when I was unconscious? I couldn't hear him or you" she replied.
"I admitted my love for you Usako" Serenity bristled at that name. "Mamo-chan, Endy please don't call me that, that's what your cousin called me" she said quietly "I have only a sister now." He ground out. Serenity froze in fear. "That's how he sounded just before he raped me please don't talk like that again. Mamo-chan onegai" tears were falling down her cheeks again. Mamoru walked up to her and lifted her out of Keiichis arms. "Keiichi go down to the others they need their other leader right now its took 5 girls to hold my men down they are more fuming than you was, the girls are in tears so you need to settle them down onegai." Mamoru said "as you wish sir" then Keiichi took his leave. Mamoru wrapped Serenitys slender legs around his waist as he was whispering sweet nothings to her. He then kissed her but it was a heated kiss Serenity opened her eyes and pulled away. "Mamo-chan no! Please don't hurt me" Serenity cried out stressed and terrified. He sat on the bed with her still wrapped around him he buried his head into her neck.
"I'm sorry, I'm so sorry Sere. I should have rescued you from his grips before. Princess please forgive me for failing to protect you once again" he said brokenly. "Mamo-chan there is nothing to forgive it's not your fault my love no one knew he would do this to me" she said putting her forehead against his. "I should have never have got with Saori. I should have been with you all along you are my only love why didn't I realise all that time ago? When you got with him the jealousy that went through me was Immense and I wasn't like that when any of the girls got with their now husbands and I grew up with you all" Mamoru said "Mamo-chan sometimes we have to take difficult steps to get what we really want in life. I mean look at you and Rei-chan you were both orphaned so young yet look where you are now?" Serenity kissed him gently he happily obliged.
When the kiss stopped He said "I will go as slow as you want my love I will never ever hurt you I promise" Mamoru said "Arigatou Mamo-chan Aishiteru I will be strong enough one day but now it's time to go to the moon love mother is waiting" Serenity said standing up and said "even in my weakest times I am strong" and she changed into her princess form and started walking downstairs. Mamoru on her heels in his prince form. They went into the sitting room everyone looked up "Minna it's time to go to the moon."
