Already exhausted touring the warrior through the endless palace halls the blonde sighed gently, turning to face the raven-haired woman.
"So. Star Fighter...You, uh.." She seemed to trip over her words as soon as their eyes met "You have an informal name?"
Smiling, having finally relaxed into her charming self, the Senshi shook her head. Stepping ahead of the smaller woman she bent at the waist, cupping her with something of a mischevious glint in her eyes.
"Why don't you give me an informal name, Princess?"
For reasons she couldn't understand, Serenity's cheeks flushed pink, heating the cool hands upon them.
"Um...How - How about Seiya. Is that okay?"
Retreating from the Princess' personal space 'Seiya' mulled over the name, finally inclining her head in agreement.
"Seiya..." She uttered the name, becoming accustomed to how it rolled off of her tongue "It's a most agreeable name. I'll accept it."
Taking up the pale hand gripping white silk the guardian used it to indicate at the green expanse lay before them past the open window.
"I would like to your the gardens next."
Serenity nodded meekly, gripping the calloused hand firmly and leading her on.
Though neither had noticed the day pass by, the Sun cast a warm glow across the fountain; concealed within a maze of writhing greenery. Serenity turned to the woman following her, grasping her hand former and dragging her around the bend.
"See? We made it, Seiya. Just in time for dawn, too."
The dark-haired woman, having found herself to be enamoured with the Moon Princess hours prior, slipped an arm around the blonde's petite waist; drawing her in closer.
Surprised by the action, the Royal resisted only momentarily before turning her flushed face into the woman's chest boldly.
"Seiya...You can't do that," her heart fluttered, and Seiya swore she could almost hear the poor girls heartbeat "Not that I don't want to!"
Chuckling, Seiya tilted the woman's fave upwards and watched her startled blue eyes for a while; willing her to be calm.
As if by miracle, it seemed to work and the figure cautiously hugging her relaxed her grip and simply tilted her head; closing her eyes in acceptance.
Minutes seemed hours before the two finally disentangled their arms from one another, yet it still wasn't long enough for either of them.
Serenity sighed, tilting her head upwards and towards the woman; though after only a few seconds of not getting what she wanted the Princess slipped her fingers into the raven hair at the base of her partner's smooth neck. Finally taking the hint, Seiya slid both arms around the blonde again and dipped her head; feeling their lips collide.
"Princess," pausing to mumble the word, she broke their kiss and watched her blue eyes flutter open again "We really can't."
"Shut up, Seiya. Just...Just kiss me." clouded blue eyes met concerned ones, watching through a haze of golden light as they closed again and the warrior dipped to meet her lady's lips again.
"Queen Serenity...You really are incorrigible. I should have known they would spark so well."
The silver-haired woman, smiling into her rose tea, rose from her seat and carefully set the fragile cup down.
Meeting the warm eyes of her friend she inclined her head knowingly, a glint in her eyes.
"Usa is...A romantic. She loves to be charmed, but also to be met on every level of possibility. This is...A match made to be, Princess." she placed a hand on the slender shoulder of her current admirer "Hold more faith in me, Kakyuu."
