Chapter 6: Truths, dreams and future nightmares

"Okay this mystery game was cute at first but now it's just giving me a headache, can someone tell me what the heck is going on?" We walked down a dark hallway that seemed to lead to the main room in the temple. One would think that by now someone would explain things but nope. It's Don't Tell Usagi Jack Shit Day apparently.

"I see patience is still not your virtue" Rei said, I felt, in a mocking way.

"Never really has" Mamoru added, "Even when I met her she was histerical. Ah the memories!"

"Oh so now you want to remember!" I yelled.

I swear these two are in cahoots together and are planning on driving me crazy for some reason. I just wanted to know what was going on. I am so sick of mysteries and unknowing what was happening around me. THIS is the reason why I never liked playing hide and seek when I was a kid. We ended up in the end of our trip, a dark room that seemed so big and was only lit by the dimming light of a bondfire that stood in the center of the room.

"By now you must have more questions than answers to tell me am I correct?" The raven haired priestess looked at us dead in the eye. It was as if she looks into my bare soul, making you feel way over exposed. We only nodded. "Luckily I am here to respond to all your doubts"

"It has to do with those dreams. I can't stop receiving them since we met. And from what I just found out we both have them" Mamoru looked at her completely serious, "They are getting more intense by the night"

"Oh yes….very intense I would say" I winked. Now my only doubt is how I can make them a reality.

"Do you feel threatened by these dreams?" Rei asked as she started to walk around us.

"Well….no. B-but they are not appropriate!" Mamoru blushed so much his face was red all over. Awww my honey bunny is so cute when he gets flustered. I just couldn't help smiling.

"I'd say they are more than appropriate. Oh like rememeber the one where you spanked me and…."

"USAGI NO!"

"Awww! You take the fun out of every Mr. SourHotPants" I pouted. His blush was so intense right now. I had to restrain myself from laughing and pinching his cheeks.

Rei was still walking around us. Okay, she maybe a beauty but she is one hell of a weirdo. Her amethyst colored eyes looked us up and down as if searching for something. Like have you seen how a mom looks at her child to see if they stole a cookie from the cookie jar? That's how I feel.

"I have an idea of what's going on. But I'm not a hundred percent sure. So the easiest way for me to know the problem is if I strip you both bare….."

"Whoa whoa whoa" I interrupted her, "I thought this was going to be a simple reading! No one said anything about stripping"

"SPIRITUALLY, I will strip you spiritually!" She said as she was starting to get irritated. Yo, that is still creepy though, just saying. "Okay now you are both going to hold hands and breathe in 5 times. You are going to leave the rest to me"

We did as she told us and held hands. You know this is something really cute. I mean we already had like…half sex? But holding hands is always something that people underestimate very much. The contact is warm as his fingers linger between mine. It was sweet and warm, but still intimate. We breathed slowly five times, hearing nothing but the sounds of our breaths run through our mouths.

I began to feel rather dizzy and my eyes were beginning to feel heavy, Rei's chanting was getting louder and closer. As the seconds passed I was growing more desperate and scared but my mind was so ready to fall asleep. I see over to Mamoru and he has the same look in his eyes. He is always calm and collected, so if he is scared he is both feeling the same and is probably shitting his pants just like me. Trying to produce a scream was futile. My body was not moving at all and everything started to feel numb. "Oh god, just let this be over" was the last thing I thought, while the last thing I saw was Mamoru starting to hold me as we both fell to the floor.

Crowded rooms, laughter, and happiness. Everybody was buzzing through the halls as I looked at them confused. Where was I? Who were these people? I recognized no one and yet everything so oddly familiar. I was in what looked like a huge silver palace. People started bowing in front of me as I passed by them. Why? I'm not complaining though. Being treated like a princess is amazingly good for the self esteem.

I looked outside and was met by an incredible garden. Such amazing flowers dispersed throughout the entire field, all so beautiful and colorful. As I went for a closer look the feeling struck me again. I had been here before. In my dreams we seem to meet right here. But where is he? Isn't he supposed to be here? Immersing myself more into the garden, walls and trees started to cover my view of the palace. And just as I was getting closer to the tallest cherry blossom tree I saw him standing there, only this time he wasn't in his shirt and jeans. He was wearing the armor. Just like in my dreams.

"Endymion?" I call. I don't know exactly how I talked. It didn't feel like I was talking. This was someone else talking for me.

"Serenity!" he smiled and grabbed my hand, "always a little late"

"I'm sorry my love. The palace is completely in a frenzy to get ready for the ball. Indubitably it will be the largest ball yet" Oh my god this wasn't even my tone of talking! What even is this?

"The moon kingdom takes great pride in their parties" he chuckled. His little smile is amazingly effective to me because I started blushing just from the site of his lips curling. WHO THE HECK BLUSHES FROM A SMILE AND WHY AM I BLUSHING GODDAMIT!?

"Let's not talk about the lunars. Tell me more about you and your fascinating world" I said smiling as I held his hand lose to my face, "Your world just captivates me even more than this place"

"Is it my world that captivates you or could it be something else?" he smiled devilishly alongside me. That's the million dollar smile that just gets my knees weak. Mamoru…. Endymion knew his way with me.

"You know very well what interests me" I said looking away, by now my blush intensified. Okay I know I'm sexier than this. What is happening to me?

"What about our talk last time about forbidden by the eyes of god?" he said looking seriously into my eyes.

"Yes I know!" sighing as I look into his deep ocean blue eyes, "Can you blame me? I can't undo what I started feeling since we met. Our love may be forbidden but I don't care a single bit! I will go against everything and everyone to make them see that our love is meant to be. I am the future queen so I can make any law I want"

His eyes softened as he looked down at me and he touched my neck, producing a massive shiver run through all my body. "You know it's not as easy as you make it seem. That is a law that has been in our civilizations for centuries. We can't just simply change it."

"It's only customs and norms. People don't want to see lunars and humans together because we are different. Well I say we are not as different as we put ourselves to be. We may both live in different worlds but we are still the same, we both live and breathe and have a beating heart. And as long as my heart beats, it will always love only you"

We stood looking at each other in what seemed an eternity before he finally sighed. "If your feelings are as strong as mine, I am willing to take the risk. But do know my beautiful Serenity, this will not be an easy battle. We are going against everything our ancestors believed in and had established since the birth of our civilization"

"Centuries change my most loved Endymion, and so do the people" I walked closer to him and wrapped my arms around his neck, "And we're going to show them that this is for the best"

Just a simple kiss on the lips, but it always felt like a bomb exploded when we kissed. It wasn't catastrophic but it was an explosion of emotions that always made me feel excited. That's what kissing Endymion felt like. But just as I had started kissing everything started spiraling. LITERALLY! The ground was spinning as I separated from him and I was soon wrapped in some strange light that seemed to teleport me to another place. These weird dreams have got to stop like right fucking now. My head was starting to hurt horribly!

My next location seemed to be a party. A lot of people were there and seemed to fill an entire room. The center of the room was filled with people who danced and skipped to the sound of the instrumental music played by the live band. But my mind was not in that party, I was searching for him. Here we are playing "where's waldo" with this man again. Okay I may love him but this is just getting stressful. I started moving through the crowd searching, finding different faces of everyone but him. Suddenly I felt an arm pull on my waist. Yo, personal space dude, ever heard of it?

"Excuse me! How dare…." Just as I was about to yell irritated I saw his eyes. I could recognize those eyes even in a dark room. They looked at me with devilish intensions and a dark passion waiting to unfold. They were covered by a white mask and his hair covered by a top hat. He wasn't in his usual armor, he was wearing a tuxedo. He could always wear the hell out of a tux.

"Would you honor me with a dance my princess?" He bowed. I took his hand and led him to the dance floor and placed his hands around me.

"Only if you promise me to not leave me for the rest of the night" I smiled at him.

"You make a tough request my princess"

"Either you dance with me and stay by my side or you leave with nothing" I joked. But his expression turned serious for a second and then returned to his smiling self. That should have been my first red flag.

"Sweetheart I'm not even supposed to be here, but well we are already breaking the rules. I might as well enjoy what I've got" He pulled me closer as we started dancing. To me the music just stopped and everything just grew into silence as my full attention was on him.

But even when we were together I could feel it. The worry in his face was clear and he thought he could hide it with his pretty little dance. Sensual as this dance felt to me there was still something wrong. I started leading the dance as far from the dance floor as I could till I finally got him to get out of the ball room. We ran all the way to the only room I knew no one could enter, my own. I locked the door and turned to see him, dead serious.

"Well, if you wanted to be with me that badly you should have…."

"What is going on Endymion?" I asked seriously.

His shock was shown clearly in his face. Trying to hide it he turned around looking out in the window, bathing in the light that came through. "Nothing you should…"

"Don't treat me like THEY do! I am not a stupid little princess!" I screamed.

"I know very well you are not. This is just….something too dangerous for you to get involved"

"Oh but not dangerous enough for you to know?" My frustration began to rise. I walked to him and hugged him from behind. We stood in silence for a couple seconds but soon my hands descended to the lower part of his anatomy, stroking it I said in a low sensual voice, "You better tell me what is going on before I pull the truth out of you the good way you taught me to"

"S-Serenity…ss-stop!" he tried to break free but I held tightly as I kept rubbing against him. One hand was almost about to open his pants but his hands stopped me. Endymion quickly grabbed both of my hands, turned around and was able to lead me to my bed and trapping me with his whole body on top of mine, "You know I never thought you would use what I taught you for these reasons" he smiled devilishly.

"You taught me well. For a moment I had you in my hands" I smirked soon my leg was moving indendently rubbing against his crotch, "You may have my hands trapped but you also taught me this little trick with my feet that…"

"Okay just stop" he sat up, "What do you want to know?"

"What is going on? Why weren't you allowed with me?"

He looked down and closed his eyes, sighing deeply. Oh, oh, this is serious I could just feel it. "Earth and the Moon Kingdom are in war now. No one trusts anyone anymore so no humans are allowed to travel to the kingdom and no Lunars are allowed on earth for the time being. I don't really have much time before people discover I went missing. I told my generals to tell everyone that I had gone to think of a strategy in a different place, but I have a feeling some may have not believed me."

I looked at him in horror. This wasn't happening! We were bound to be separated and I was going to loose him. "Is there anything I can do? I can tell my mother and…"

"Your mother knows I'm here. She actually wants peace for both sides, but someone on earth is making plans to strike here. And from what I've heard, they have a major following" his hands were curled into a fist, his frustration showing in his face, "I can't keep you safe if you're with me. You are going to be a target because of me. I only came here one last time to warn you of the dangers"

"NO!" I get on top of him and grab his hands, now I was in control, "I won't let them separate us! You are mine!"

"You're acting like a spoiled princess"

"Well maybe I am! I am spoiled because I want the only man I have ever loved to be beside me and not go to war" I cried "I don't want to lose you! Not now that I finally discovered what it feels like to love"

My tears are beginning to blur my vision as I let go of his hands and just lay on top of him crying my heart out. Life was unfair to us. Why did they have to separate us like this? First it was the stupid norm, and now the war against the two civilizations we lived in. I cried harder than I had ever cried before. All these emotions that I have felt while being with him, so many things that I have discovered at his side, all taken away.

Suddenly I could feel his lips on mine. His kisses seemed to calm me down and at the same time bring me even more sadness. Imagining a world without him embracing me, without his kisses, without his smiles, hurts me more that I could have ever thought.

"Curse you for showing me these emotions!" I cried as I kept kissing him.

"Serenity, promise me that you will try to be safe. Once this is all over I will come back for you"

"Do you promise? Promise me you will come back to me!"

He grabs my hands, looks directly into my eyes, and says, "I promise that no matter what happens we will always come back together again. Even if it takes me a million lifetimes"

Sealing a promise with a kiss may sound cliché to some, but in that moment it wasn't a promise that we sealed. We sealed a pact. We knew in that moment that this that was going to impact us deeply in our life and in our souls. The kiss started to get more intense and passionate. I could see it in his eyes, I could see into his thoughts. If this was the last night, at least for one last night, we were going enjoy the most of it.

His hands explored the skin of my arms, but I knew that wasn't going to hold him long. He loved exploring my body and feeling every inch with his hands. But this time it was as if every part of him wanted to remember and engrave the shape and feel of my body. Lucky for me my dress was easily able to slide down.

"Have I ever told you the fact that I love when you wear no undergarments" He smiled, his hands grabbing my breasts as he began licking the nipples.

"After ripping my underwear that last time, I didn't want to lose more clothes." I bit my lip, closing my eyes as sensations started to spread slowly through my body.

"Oh come on, it was one time" He said innocently, sliding slowly to the lower region of my body. "How many times have I told you to not hold back?"

"I do what I want" I scoffed for a second but soon his finger slipped through me finding my center and playing with my clitoris

"What a bratty little princess" he smirked,

"And you're a naughty earth prince" I said weakly as I started holding on to his shoulders. My knees were beginning to feel wobbly like a baby deer "Ahh~ Endymion!"

"Take off my clothes" he ordered in a husky voice.

By now he could order me to a back flip and I would do it. He had me in a hypnotic state, all I wanted was him. I unbuttoned his shirt as fast as I could and began kissing his neck and chest as if I was rushing to take his pants off. I felt the urgency just rushing through me as I took off his pants in one pull and evening the odds.

"Serenity…."His voice was beginning to go deeper as I started sitting on his lap, "…Wait…S-Serenity….I said WAIT!"

I halted and just looked at him confused. I never got yelled at by Endymion. He was always patient and caring with me. He grabbed my hands again and kissed them softly. I could feel the tears come back and dominate me. God, I just want to cry. He held me close as I sobbed on his shoulder and tenderly stroked my head.

"Even if this is the last time we are together, let's make this right" He kissed me tenderly, "I want to make love to you till dawn. I want to love you even if it's the last thing I do, but I don't want you to rush it. I want you to enjoy and slide into the pleasure. This may be our last, but it will be in our minds for as long as we shall both live"

We kissed for the hundredth time (not that I'm complaining) and this time he touched me the way he always did. Only this time he not only touched my skin with his hands but also his lips kissing my skin in the most erotic way I had ever felt. It was good for me because while he tried to memorize my body and my skin, I tried to engrave the sensation of his hands all over me. I sat on top of him, swaying my hips against him.

His hands were once again lowering to my center starting to provoke me more. My swaying got even faster after he began to move his finger in and out of me while his lips were now focused on my breasts. My breath was getting heavier and all could do was move and hold on to him. First grabbing myself from his shoulders but as the momentum increased my hands ended up all over his hair.

"Ahhh~!" the moan escaped from my lips and I could feel a smile curve on his face as he kept playing with my nipples. "Endymion….I'm close…"

Once that sentence escaped my lips, the orgasm came in with a burning tidal wave of sensations. I trembled as Endymion held me close and started kissing sweetly to help me regain my thoughts.

"I must…return the favor" I smiled, running short of breath.

"Just let me love you" he said tenderly kissing all of my face, "that's all I need"

"You are pretty easy to please" winking I got off and stood up. He followed me and we stood next to the window holding each other. I would pay anything to just have this night last forever.

He led me once again to the bed this time I lied down and he observed my body as I waited for him to come to my side. Of course I did the same. If looking at him and admiring his body was an Olympic sport I would be a champion. His erection standing proud between his legs as my eyes opened wide. We may have made love countless times (and in countless positions) but every time I felt like a shy first timer when it came to making love to him. He was extraordinary, both in his physique and in his abilities in the bed.

Once he was in bed with me, he led the way as he went inside me. Movements always slow at the beginning but once he had a reassurance that it was okay to continue, he moved with precision and power. Our voices soon began to fill the room, filling it with moans, screams and grunts. I spread my hands in his chest as he kept thrusting me and kissed him deeply.

Whenever we made love nothing in the world seemed to matter anymore. It was only us and our pleasure. There was nothing between us and we enjoyed it. We were each other's paradise. We didn't need anyone or anywhere, all we needed was each other.

"Endymion…"

"Serenity…I….I love you….."

"Me too….Ah….yes…" This may have gone without saying but it was that reassurance that made this a solid relation. It may have been obvious how we feel, but still words were never enough to express it.

His movements were getting harder, pounding inside me and shaking me to my core. My orgasm was threatening to come back but I wanted to make this last more. I wrapped my legs on his waist and elevated my hips. Deeper, harder, sexually and emotionally filling me till I could no more. Finally we both caved in to the wild orgasm that had us both out of breath and extremely exhausted.

"Serenity…"

"Endymion…"

"I love you" we both said at the same time.

I wanted to smile and laugh but soon the same light from before came around us and we weren't in my bedroom anymore. We were fully dressed in the midst of a fight. Crying and screams of horror filled my ears as the smell of blood intoxicated me.

"ENDYMION!" I cried.

"SERENITY!" He yelled back.

I finally got a hold of him and managed to feel safe in his arms but as soon as he began to smile his smile was quickly erased by a deadly gasped. Standing behind him was a soldier of earth. A person from his own planet had stabbed him in the back. I saw in horror as he plummeted to the floor and with his last breath tell me, "I love you".

"NO!" I screamed. This wasn't happening! We were going to be together. We had plans! WHY WAS THE WORLD BEING CRUEL TO US!? WE ONLY WANTED TO BE HAPPY!

Soon I managed to grab the sword from my lover's hands. Endymion's words were resounding in my head, "I promise that no matter what happens we will always come back together again. Even if it takes me a million lifetimes….a million lifetimes…..a million lifetimes" If this world didn't want us together then the next life was bound to make us meet. I know this. This is destiny!

I grabbed the sword and held it against me, finally ending the madness not before saying my last words, "I love you too Endymion"

Mamoru and I woke up both shaken and in a state of shock. We looked into each other's eyes. We couldn't talk at all. There were no words to say. It was confusing and extremely painful. So I did the only thing my instinct told me to do. I cried, curling up against Mamoru and holding my hand against my chest. They only thing he could do is stroke my hand as he cried in silence.

"What you just had was a past life experience" I heard Rei say, I could hear her voice kind of weak "Now you know why, now you know that you were both lovers in a different life!"

A.N. GAAAAHHHHH FINALLY! I had such a hard time being able to write this! If you follow me on tumblr you would know that I recently moved and I had no laptop. So once I got the chance to get my laptop fixed the first thing I did was write everything I had planned in my head. This may be a day late but let's say this is my birthday gift for Usagi (yesterday was june 30th) so it all worked well in the end! I'm just happy I'm going to be able to write more. ;U;

As always please tell me what you thought of this chapter or of the story in general, all reviews are deeply accepted! Welp! Till next chapter! :D
