Chapter 4
Midnight Angel
Rated: PG13
  
"Today is going to be MY day!!" she cheered as she passed people on the 
street. Finally reaching the park she skipped to the tree where only 
hours ago she had discovered the true Darien. She stopped in mid step 
when she looked at the sight in front of her. It was the most romantic 
site she had ever seen. Her eyes began to burn with the threat of tears of 
joy shedding. Quietly she walked toward the blanket she saw spread out 
on the ground.

 Reaching the blanket her eyes widened in joy. On the blanket was a 
picnic basket, and on top of the basket a note. Leaning over she picked up 
the note then anxiously began to read its content.

 Dearest Serena,
  I am so glad that you have made it to our spot for sunrise. Yes, now 
I consider this our spot. I will never forget last night, and I hope 
you won't either. I wanted to do everything to make this sunrise special 
for you. Close your eyes facing the sunrise, take a deep breath, and 
make a wish. I will be thinking of you.

                          Love,
                            Darien

 Serena held the letter tightly in her hands as she looked up at the 
sunrise just beginning to peak over the hill. Closing her eyes she took a 
deep breath, and began to make a wish. 'I wish with all my heart that 
Darien loved me, that he was Tuxedo Mask, and we were meant to be. 
Please let my dreams come true.'
 Finishing with her wish she began to exhale. A smile crept along her 
lips as she felt two strong arms encircle her slim waist. She continued 
to keep her eyes closed. Afraid to wake up and find this all to be a 
dream. Shivers ran up her spine as he whispered into her ear, and her 
heart began to race.

 "Did you make a wish princess?" he whispered into her ear
 
 " The most wonderful wish. I'd give anything to have it come true." 
She sighed as she whispered into the air.

 "Anything?" he inquired

 "Anything..." Serena said almost breathlessly

 "Then tell me your wish." He turned her around in his arms to face 
each other. Placing a finger under her chin he lifted her gaze to his the 
continued. "Tell me your wishes, and I will make them all come true." 
He gently kissed her forehead, and gazed lovingly into her eyes.

 Serena contemplated for a moment, then gave up with a sigh. 'It's just 
a dream, what harm can it be to say it aloud?' Serena searched his eyes 
longingly for a few moments as she pondered the thought of telling him. 
"Well, I wished that you would love me, that you were Tuxedo Mask, and 
that we were meant to be." A silent tear escaped her cheek as she 
realized what she had just said would be impossible.

 'Does she know Tuxedo Mask??' his mind filled with questions. He saw 
the tear that escaped her eyes, and lifted his hand to gently wipe it 
away. "Do not cry my princess, I promise all your dreams will come true." 
He looked at her eyes change to curiousity from his words. "Might I ask 
how you know Tuxedo Mask? "

 'If he knows I are Sailor Moon will he still want to be with me? How 
else can I explain knowing Tuxedo Mask? No use in holding back now.'
"I know Tuxedo Mask...because I fight along side of him." She saw the 
curious look in Darien's, and decided to continue. "I...I...am...Sailor 
Moon." She looked down. Afraid to see the disappointment in his eyes. 

 Darien's heart raced. 'Could she really be Sailor Moon?? Can it be 
that my thoughts before of them being the same actually be true??' Darien 
was happy beyond belief. His heart filled with love, and emotions for 
the young woman in his arms. "Serena?" he gently lifted her gaze to his. 
"Why are you hiding your eyes from me?"

 She sniffled as she looked into his eyes to answer him. "I don't want 
to see the disappointment in your eyes. I know I am too klutzy, and too 
big a ditz to be a super hero, but I do try. I know the scouts, and 
Tuxedo Mask would do better without me to protect." Tears raced down her 
cheeks as her heart broke with the thought.

 "Serena...Sailor Moon, the scouts and I could do nothing without you. 
We need you. I need you. You are not the best warrior in skill, because 
you were not trained to be a warrior in the past, but you are a warrior 
at heart. You have the biggest heart of anyone I've ever known, and 
that makes you the strongest warrior in the world. Please, don't think I 
would ever be disappointed in you. I only worry about you because I care 
for you......In fact...... I love you Serena." 

 Serena was amazed by his words. 'Could he meant it?? Wait... does this 
mean he is Tuxedo Mask??' Serena looked questioningly in his eyes. 
"Are... are you Tuxedo Mask? "

 He smiled slightly at the blush that tinted her cheeks. "Yes, Serena, 
Sailor Moon... I am."

 "And... did you mean what you say?? Do you... (gulp) love me??" tears 
threatened to spill from her eyes at any moment.

 He blushed at the look in her eyes. "Yes Serena, I do. I love you with 
all my heart. I know I've never shown you this, and I have acted so 
cold to you, but it was only an act. On the inside I was dying to take you 
into my arms, and never let you go. You brought a brightness to my 
life, and I can't deny my feelings for you any longer." He pulled a rose 
from behind his back, and transformed into Tuxedo Mask. Gently caressing 
her cheek he whispered to her. "Now you change for me."

 Serena backed out of his embrace, and trembled from the chill of where 
his warm arms had once replaced the cold. Holding her hand in the air 
she called out, "Moon Prism Power!!!!"

 Darien watched in wander as he saw her change into his beloved 
heroine. When her transformation was over she stood before him blushing. 
Seeing the look in his eyes she spoke with a slight giggle of embarrassment.
 
 "I forgot there is that one tiny second where I am naked." She looked 
down at the ground blushing every shade of red.

 Tuxedo Mask stepped up in front of her with a smile on his face. 
Lifting her face, gently caressing her cheek he said, "You are very 
beautiful. I am glad you  forgot."

 Serena blushed even more at this statement. Pulling at her 
transformation broche she detransformed. Darien followed her actions 
he detransformed as well. After gazing into each others eyes for a few 
moments they rushed into each others arms. Darien lifted her chin with 
his finger, and slowly closed the space between their lips. Capturing 
her lips with his the world seemed to stand still around them. He 
reveled in the thought of how sweet her lips tasted. Deepening the kiss his 
lips begged for more of her sweet taste. His tongue coaxed her lips open 
to dart inbetween them, searching her mouth with a hunger. When their 
kiss ended their heart beats were the only sound to be heard as the held 
each other gazing at the sunrise.

 Darien and Serena walked around all day holding hands. Each one 
blushing still from the mornings sharing of secrets, and intimate moment. 
Darien was lost in his thoughts of her. All he wanted was to take her in 
his arms, and make her his forever. Serena lost in the thoughts of all 
her dreams coming true.

 Darien was smiling. He was smiling like he never had before, his heart 
was light with love, and he felt warm inside. Thinking of his dream 
princess he couldn't help but wince at the pain in his heart. 'How can I 
love two women so much?? Would my princess understand?? Why won't she 
let me see her face??' (maybe Serena is my dream princess too... she 
turned out to be Sailor Moon afterall...) His smile widened at that thought 
if at all possible as he picked up his ace to keep up with the 
energetic bunny beside him. He giggled to himself as he watched her happily 
scarf down her sundae. 'This is life... the way it should be.'

 Walking back to their spot in the park they settled on a clear patch 
of grass to watch the sunset. Serena settled back into his arms, sighing 
with the happiness that filled her heart.

 "Serena... I wanted to ask you something..." he whispered into her ear

 "What is it muffin?" she asked happily

 "Muffin?" he beamed at the cute nickname from his little princess.

 "It just suits you." She blushed at his expression

 "I was wondering ... would you be my girlfriend?" he looked into her 
eyes hopefully

 Her eyes filled with tears of happiness... "Yes!!!!" She jumped into 
his arms hugging him tightly.

 His heart filled with joy, and he smiled genuinely "Oh, you have made 
me so happy!" He closed the space between them to gently plant 
butterfly kisses to her lips. 'I need to tell her about my dream princess... 
would she understand?' (tell her the truth, you love her, you owe it to 
her) he made up his mind to tell her about his princess in his dreams. 
He would tell her tomorrow. Today was too special to ruin.

 ~ Serena's house ~
 Serena sighed as she fell back on her bed holding the rose Darien had 
given her earlier that afternoon to her heart. Her mind wandered about 
what he was doing right now. If he was thinking of her...... She hoped 
this was a dream that would never end.

 ~ Darien's Apartment ~

 Darien laid in his bed tossing in his restless sleep. His dreams 
filled with a dream princess whose idenity he fought to find out.

 "Who are you?? Show me your face! Please princess!!" he called out

 "Tuxedo Mask, find the crystal, and my idenity shall be revealed to 
you! I am closer to you than you think. Open your heart Tuxedo Mask. Open 
your heart to me."

 He woke up with sweat drenching his body, his mind recalling the 
events in his dream.

 "I have to tell her" he stated. Getting up from his bed he went to his 
desk, and began to write. After finishing the letter he changed to 
Tuxedo Mask, leaping off his balcony he head toward Serena's house to leave 
her his letter, hopping she would understand. 'I can't tell her in 
person. What if she didn't love me anymore? I wouldn't be able to bear it. 
This is the only way.'

 He crept into her window silently walking over to her bedside. He 
stood there for what seemed like hours watching her sleeping form. 'She 
looks so peaceful. Please forgive me my love, and then come to me.'
He placed the note on her nightstand with a rose, after gently placing 
a kiss on her forehead, he crept back out the window he came in to head 
back to his lonely apartment.

~ next morning at Serena's ~

 Serena woke up unusually early yawning, and stretching. Her face was 
lit up with a bright smile as she recalled parts of her dream from last 
night. It was the first night she had not dreamed of Tuxedo Mask, but 
of Darien. She turned to grab her diary off her nightstand so she could 
write the events of yesterdays date with Darien in it. That's when she 
saw the letter. Her heart jumped for joy at the thoughts of what the 
letter might say. Opening it up she began to read.

 Dear Serena,

 Goodmorning love......
