7. Things left unsaid

Thanks to Sawyer, Wannabe Kairi, Sailor-sama and The Witch033 for reviewing the previous chapter!

A/N: 2 drabbles for you lovely people!

Disclaimer: I don't own purple hair dye and sailormoon.

"Usako, can you pass me the shampoo?" The hot water from the shower hit Mamoru's back as he scrubbed himself with the loofah sponge.

"Pa…..Pa…! Usa browth it fer you!" Chibi-usa?

The shower curtain slammed shut and only his head peeked out.

"Papa! Here!" Patting her head, he smiled down at his daughter. "Thank you. Now go find Mama, okay?' Her head bounced up and down in agreement and he heard the pitter patter of little feet running across the room.

After his shower, Mamoru dried himself off and changed into his regal attire. Let's see. There's that meeting with Obama today, and a conference call with Singapore's representative for the trade issue-

"Papa! Eat!" Chibi-usa's voice broke through his thoughts as he walked towards the dining hall. "Yes, Yes." Smiling at his daughter, he carried her on his arms.

His lovely wife met him in the doorway, eyes wide as saucers.

"Usako? What happened?" His brows furrowed, thinking of the worst possible scenario. "You look like you've just seen a ghost!"

Usagi swallowed hard. "Nothing. Just nerves I guess. I… er. couldn't find Chibi-Usa."

The day went on as usual, except Mamoru noticed that he got more stares compared to the usual. Must be the regal attire, since I don't wear it much.

Stepping into the bathroom, he started stripping himself and caught sight of himself in the mirror.

"USAKO!" His enraged shout shook the walls of their bedroom.

A meek looking Usagi walked into the bathroom and sheepishly smiled.

"Why the Fuck do I have PURPLE HAIR NOW?" Oh, he was positively seething with anger right now.

"Well, Ami chan was working on this new dye that could colour anything into this shade and chibi usa took off with it and I couldn't grab her and-"

Looking at the anger in his eyes, Usagi sobbed. "I'm sorry, I should have never let her run into Ami's lab!"

The tension between this moment was broken by Chibi-usa. "Papa Pwretty!" Smiling a toothless grin at her parents, she ran out of the room.

Mamoru relented, slumping onto the side of the wash basin. And it dawned upon him that he must have been walking around with the head of purple hair since the start of the morning.

"Usako, Why didn't you tell me in the morning?" Fingers rubbing his temple in an attempt to ease the headache the whole situation was giving him.

His wife looked down at the floor and twirled the ends of her hair with her fingers. "Well….Some things are better left unsaid…"

"Usagi-chan?" Makoto ducked a flying glob of cookie dough as Usagi turned around to face her.

"Mako-chan! I can't get this right!" Usagi wailed while trying to roll the cookie dough flat on the table.

Makoto's eyes took in the dishevelled blonde's image, smudges of flour covering her face, chocolate sticking to her hair and heaved a sigh. "Come here" Her hands reached out and hugged the crying blond, petting her head. "I'm here. Let's do this right."

Hiccupping, Usagi wiped her tears away with her sleeves and tried to mimic Makoto's actions as she redid the process of baking cookies.

A few hours and 2 failed batches of cookies later, Usagi emerged smiling energetically, waving goodbye to Makoto as she made her way to Mamoru's apartment.

Once Usagi was a good distance away, Makoto dialled Mamoru's number. "Listen, Mamoru. Some things are better left unsaid" She whispered into the phone. "Remember that when you see Usagi tonight!" With that, she hung up, hoping that the prince would know what she meant, when he received his present.

Mamoru looked at the phone in bewilderment and shrugged it off. What could happen?
