It’s raining. The sky is murky grey, with thick black clouds rumbling angrily as the first tears dropped from the heavens. I sat there and ignored the rain, loving every moment. Funny it seems, that I, a royal princess, would be sitting alone out here. Truth be told, I hate being royalty, as much as I hate Fate.

I know, for sure, that Venus and company will be out searching for me, lecturing me on how I shouldn’t be out in the rain, because I’d catch a cold and how I shouldn’t be on this planet - Earth. I love this planet. This is one of my favourite moments, the rain. We don’t have that up on the moon, we don’t have real and beautiful flowers that dotted the fields with their burst of colours. Most of all, we don’t have Endymion. No we don’t, and that’s why I hate Fate.

Endymion, the love of my life. With bluish-black hair and melting eyes, the colour of the deep ocean. Yes, one could drown in those eyes. I smiled, for I have been one of those victims. I often feel that the sky weeps when I’m depressed, darkens when I’m troubled, clears when I’m joyous. It is raining and I’m crying. Not openly, but deep inside – my heart’s crying. I cry for the forbidden love Endymion and I share, I cry for my lack of privacy, I cry for myself. I lifted my head to the sky, feeling the raindrops on my face. Then, I opened my eyes. I feel myself soften as I remember how we had shared our days together. Sneaking and hiding, playing and kissing. I chuckled. How amusing. I felt my cheeks burn, my fingers touching my lips. How shameful of me! Though this isn’t proper conduct, but I must admit that I like his kisses. I laughed.

We’re having a ball tonight, and Endymion will be there. I got up, smiling to myself, wondering what I should wear for tonight’s function. Just as I turned around, the voices of Venus and co. called out to me. I waved, and smiled. They lectured me and pulled me along. The rain’s stopped, the first arrows of sunlight emerged from behind the clouds. Dew rolled off leaves and a rainbow appeared. I feel at ease, happy and expectant of what’s to come at tonight’s ball. I noticed a figure lurking in the shadows, a pair of deep sapphire eyes stared into mine. Endymion, he smiled, gave me a thorough look from head to toe and winked. I looked down at myself and noticed how muddy my white gown is, and how translucent it’s become. I blushed, turned back and smiled, catching his wink as Venus pulled me along towards the portal directing me back home. Suddenly, the weather was exceptionally fine.


Author’s Notes

Hello! I know I’ve been neglecting my Sailormoon page, but guess what? I’m BACK! Hah! It’s raining right now and the funny thing is, as I finished typing my story, the rain ceased. Weird huh? Anyway, this story probably doesn’t make much sense, but it was just a reflection in Serenity’s point of view. It’s short…. I know…^^’ And I apologise!!! As usual, comments please! Flames will be sent to the incinerator to aid the fires that destroy all rubbish. Ja ne minna~!
