The couple appeared in Mercury's room, not even a second later. It was dark, only the little sunlight entering the room by the balcony lighted it. Zoisite whispered, not daring to disturb the peace: "Ami, we are here."

The young girl sighed, but didn't move. "Ami, are you awake?"

"I am, but I'm so tired... I just wanna sleep...."

"Let me put you in your bed."

"Let me finish. I wanna sleep... but I wanna sleep in your arms."

Zoisite thanked it was dark, so Mercury couldn't see his blush. "Ami, I have to go back... my friends must be waiting for me...."

"You are way too weak you go anywhere. Besides, they can wait until noon." She then opened her eyes, and jumping off his arms, took his hand, and led him to the bed.

"Ami... I'm not sure about this...."

"I am." She turned around, and hugging him, kissed him fully again. Zoisite kissed her back, and surrendered.

They both crawled into the bed, Mercury took Zoisite's arms, and engulfed herself with them. His warmth soon flooded through her, warming her cool body. She felt so safe in there, that she rested her head on his chest again, and sighed in contentment. Zoi was feeling very comfortable also, and he kissed the top of her head. Ami cuddled against him, and they both fell asleep, entwined in each other's arms... .


The sunlight reached Mercury's face, warming her until she woke up. She moved a little, and opened her eyes. She remembered the events of last night and the previous morning, and turned around to see Zoisite. He wasn't there. She woke up immediately, and jerked up in the bed, looking for him. His warmth in the bed was still there, and his body was shaped in the sheets. His wildwood scent was still there, and she smelled it, feeling as her heart leaped with joy. She looked around, searching everywhere she could. Her room was empty. No one but herself was there. She was still in her sailor fuku, but she felt completely rested, and full of energy again. She jumped off the bed, and as she did, she saw something on her night table. It was an envelope, with a pink rose over it.

Trembling, she took it. The rose was in full bloom, pouring its smell around her. She opened the letter and read it carefully. It said the following:

 

My beloved Ami:

Yesterday you made me the happiest man in the world. I could never thank you for that, my love is all I have to give to you. While I'm writing this, you are peacefully sleeping by my side. Has anyone ever told you that you look like an angel when you sleep? You are sleeping against me, and I feel so... I can't describe it with words. I wish we could be together forever, and never ever part again, but I must leave now. If I didn't and anyone found us in here, do you imagine the scandal it would provoke? I know I'm being selfish, but I only want you for me.

The rose I left you is a pink rose. In the language of flowers, means new discovered love. That's how I feel for you, and far more. Please, don't be mad for me leaving you like this, but I couldn't stand saying good-bye to you. That's all I can think of right now, and I hear footsteps approaching, so I will go... for now. I love you more than life,

 

Zoi.

Mercury felt as her heart got bigger for the happiness she felt. She dipped her nose on the rose, smelling deeply. Then, dancing and singing just a like a child, she detransformed, and went into the bathroom...
