Usagi looked out the window, about to protest that it was still light out, but then seeing that it was drawing to evening, getting darker, she sighed, nodding.
"I agree," she said. Aya and Rina both stood, giving her tight hugs and saying something comforting before leaving. "Do you want some tea?" she asked, looking over at Blake as she walked into the kitchen.

"Sure I'll take some. " He nodded "Well, this gives us a better chance to get to know each other more, and get a bit of a calm before the storm so to speak." He said looking to the three. "Well, I guess I'll see you two later." He waved to them as they left. "So..me staying here...is this like a sleep over?" He asked with a slight laugh. "Finally, I get to know what girls really do during sleep overs!" He joked. It was just those two in there now, he sat back a bit, taking a sigh as he relaxed. His wounds would be healed by morning. "This is pretty nice here. I haven't really been in a home or house in a long while." He said looking around.

"It's exactly what is needed," Usagi said with a little smile. She didn't really know what to say, so she sipped her tea in silence. It wasn't awkward though, merely comfortable. She found herself starting to doze off. Lately, she'd been feeling more and more tired. About a half hour later, she finally gave in, and stood, taking her empty tea cup out to the kitchen. "I'm starting to fall asleep..." she said apologetically. "You're welcome to get any food out of the fridge, if you get hungry, and you're also welcome to shower or watch tv or anything else." She smiled and motioned to a door that was on the opposite wall from the door she was standing in front of. "That is the spare bedroom. Sleep on an actual bed, instead of the couch." Opening the door behind her, and going into her room, she closed the door behind her, sighing. Something big was happening, bigger than the fight against Chaos. And if Blake was right, then she had a sickening feeling that the Senshi that were missing were already dead.

He drank his tea, sitting with her then looked up as she began to walk off. "Bed? Man...its been forever since I've been on one of those. All I've been doing is camping. And an actual shower rather than a cold river or creek? I could use one..." He said with a slight laugh. He watched her go into the room then got up and headed towards the shower, taking his clothes off. He had one spare change of clothes on him that was laid down near him while he was unconscious earlier. He then climbed into the shower and began to wash all the dirt and whatnot off of him. The warm water soothed his sore muscles. He looked up into the water, letting it run down his face then began to soap and wash off. He stepped out looking over his wounds, they had healed. 'So much better...' He thought to himself as he began to dry off, then hung the towel up.
He then walked out towards his room to get dressed, though he didn't want to wear battle clothes to sleep. Boxers it was. He then looked over to the hand held computer he had and picked it up. Then flipping it open he began to look up old video files. One of them was six warriors, chained up and being drained of their energy calling Blakes name out. "Guys! Hold on!" His voice yelled on the computer as he fought his way through a few foot soldiers. "Its no use, I need to transform!" He yelled, pulling out a phoenix shaped jewel. It was the size of his hand with wings spread and the head looking to the left side. He held it in front of him and glared at his friends with a look saying that he was going to save them. "Henshin!" He yelled as a belt appeared around his waist. He placed the jewel in a slot on the belt then spun it as a ball of fire and electric energy engulfed him. Then it seemed to break apart like glass, revealing an armored warrior in black and red armor, holding an orange bladed sword with a phoenix between the hilt and blade. "Rising from the ashes...I am Black Phoenix Knight! Now, feel the chaos of your sins!" He called out as the video paused.

Usagi slowly got ready for bed, letting down her hair to just let it go. She had a splitting headache. Wearing a long shirt that had belonged to Kazuma, she put on a pair of shorts under it, then her sound coming from across the living room. Feeling rather timid, she went and knocked on Blake's door, then opened it slightly, tilting her head to the side, gripping some of her hair in her hand, a nervous habit she'd picked up a while back.
"Hey, you okay?" she asked softly. She'd hear his voice, and he'd sounded like he was in distress. She stayed in the doorway, not sure what to do.

He looked towards the door to her. He was just standing in boxers at the moment, but he had been around a group of both girls and guys for a while in the wild. He was used to it. "Yea, I'm fine...sorry to disturb you. I was just watching some old videos..." He said quietly, turning the computer off. "Hah, I should be ready to just pass out. But I'm not really tired...I doubt I can get any sleep either. To much going on in my mind." He sighed. Truth is, there was to much missing right now. The thought of being alone was finally catching up to him. He was in a whole new Earth, but that didn't bring everyone and thing he knew. "I'm sorry. I don't want to be a bother to you." He laughed slightly. "I'm just not used to well..." He couldn't really finish his sentence. Admitting he was alone, meant he was alone. He just had to ignore it and carry on. "Its nothing." He gave a reassuring smile.

"It's okay to say that you're lonely," Usagi said after a few seconds. Her voice was soft, but her silver eyes seemed to hold depths of knowledge beyond her twenty years. A little flash of silver shone from her forehead for an instant as the crescent moon symbol was there, then gone. "But you are never truly alone." She walked up to him, putting a hand on his chest, over his heart. "If you keep their memories alive here, then they will never truly be gone..." She smiled sadly, a little bitter laugh escaping her. "I tell myself that everyday, but I never seem to believe it." Sighing, not really realizing how close she was to him, her warm breath tickling his chest, she turned, looking back at her room. It was empty now that Kazuma was gone, cold and lonely. "We should... We should both get some rest," she continued quietly, then started back towards her room. "If you truly are exhausted in body, then your mind will quickly follow you into oblivion." She smiled a little again, then left the room, walking back across the living room and into her room. Laying on her bed, her silver-blue hair fanned out beneath her, she closed her silver eyes, forcing herself to forget about Kazuma, wanting to sleep without the deep aching loneliness that his absence caused.

He looked away when she said it was ok to be lonely. It wasn't like him. He was always the comic relief guy, the one with the positive attitude. Had he allowed himself to be broken? When she placed her hand on his chest, he slowly moved his hand over hers. It was without thinking. He started to place his arm around her when she was close to him, but stopped when his other hand was on her side. "Yea...rest." He sighed. His body wasn't that exhausted, it was his mind and soul that had taken the beating. He watched her walk into her room and lay on her bed. They were both missing important people to them. He looked back to the bed in his room and was about to lay down. But looked back to her and walked into her room and sat down against the wall by her bed. "I can't really sleep. And I'm used to keeping watch over people...if its ok, if you don't mind that is...I'd like to sit here and perhaps keep you company. And keep watch. Just in case anything happens." He said, really just making an excuse to not be alone with his thoughts.

Usagi looked up as he came in, and at his question, nodded. With a small grin, she tossed an extra pillow at him, hitting him in the face.
"There you go," she giggled. There was something about the giggle that said she was truly happy. "Don't go making yourself uncomfortable for the sake of watching over little old me." Her smile was infectious, but she truly was tired, and after a few moments of laying there, she snuggled under the covers and fell asleep. In the moonlight, she truly looked like the Princess she was, her hair sparkling, and her entire being having a slight glow. As she slept though, a few tears streaked down her cheek, and she seemed to be having some trouble with bad dreams. She cried out a few times, but it was a wordless cry, as if uttering the names would be too painful to bear. Tossing and turning, she soon got tangled in her blankets, and a sweat was present upon her brow.

He smiled with a nod. "I'm not uncomfortable, but thanks." He laughed slightly as he laid back on the floor, but mostly looking up at the ceiling. He pulled out a broken phoenix shaped jewel and stared at it for a while as she slept. 'I wonder...if I have one more transformation left. If I used it...it may even destroy me with how unstable the jewel is. But if it comes down to it...I will use it.' He thought to himself then heard a few small cries from the girl. He sat up to take a look at her, then seeing the tears and sweat on her, he wanted to do something to help. The glow from the moonlight did sparkle her hair, and her body had a glow to it. He wiped the tears gently from her face and the sweat with a cloth. He placed on hand to hold on to hers and had his chin on the bed a bit. He wanted to comfort her a bit. After all, this was the person that took him in. He felt it would be a bit weird, but he figured he would try something so she could sleep a bit easier. So he slowly moved up into the bed and wrapped an arm around her to hopefully help with the bad dreams. And though he wanted to stay away see if she got better, he slowly passed out next to her. The exhaust from the battles, and the long day and night finally hitting him.

Usagi cuddled closer to Blake in her sleep, instinctively getting closer to the source of warmth and comfort next to her. His warm aura was similar to Kazuma, but so much different. She still felt attached though, and in her sleep, all of this translated through. As she cuddled closer, her nightmares slowly turned peaceful, and her tears and whimpers went away. Her head rested against his chest, and the sound of his heartbeat seemed to reassure her as she slept.
The next day, the sun dawned clear and bright, causing Usagi to moan and turn over, her back to Blake, but still pressed closely against him. She wanted to stay in bed, but knew that she needed to. Since Venus was gone, she was in charge of the Senshi. Sighing, she got up, grabbing a couple of towels and going to the shower. She'd been so tired that she didn't realize that Blake was in her bed, and didn't think to take clothing with her.

Blake began to wake up as Usagi left the bed. He watched her walk into the shower and turned onto his back looking up to the ceiling. 'Today, we need to find that crystal. I need to train. And I need to figure out what to do about my busted up jewel. There has to be another one on this planet. If there was another version of me that is...' He thought to himself. He sat up in the bed, facing the bathroom, then stood to stretch a bit. He then got on the floor and began doing sit ups and push ups, part of his morning work out routine. He'd go on a run later in the day. ((Short post xD Kind of made a quick one as I'm heading out the door. Going for a quick work out I'll be on in an hour or less. ))

Usagi took a rather lengthy warm shower, wanting to just calm herself down. The previous day had been trying, and she was still feeling the stress. After the shower, she got out, looking at the mirror that was partially steamed up. Deciding to do something different with her hair, she put it up in one long braid. Braided, her hair reached to mid-calf, and she nodded. It wasn't any heavier put up that way than it had been in her odango. Casting another look at herself in the mirror, she traced the scar on her side, just above the hip bone. There was another on her chest, just in between her breasts. Both caused her heart to ache. When Kazuma had been possessed by Chaos, she'd had to fight him. The scars were from him. He'd died saving her from Chaos shortly after, and his last words had been an apology. Blinking away the tears, Usagi shook her head. Even if she could reverse what this Zodiac had done, and bring back her Senshi, she still couldn't bring back Kazuma. He was gone. Sighing, she wrapped her towel about her body, the top of the scar on her chest just barely peeking out above the top of the towel. Opening the door, she walked out, then squeaked in surprise, jumping back into the bathroom and closing the door partly, peeking out from behind it.
"Sorry! I thought you had left my room at some point last night," she said apologetically, looking at the stunned Blake. Her face was red. Realizing the picture she'd made, still slightly wet from the water, her long legs coming out from under the towel, the towel barely covering her torso, her face got redder. "I'm so sorry.."

He looked over seeing her walk out his eyes almost popped out of his head they were so wide. When she ducked behind the door he quickly turned around turning red. Though, he had seen the scar. "Um...its...its ok." He managed to say, the image still in his mind. She was really beautiful. 'No no no! Get that out of my head!.' He thought to himself, slowly looking around. "Its my fault" He laughed. When you got out of bed and walked in, I should have gotten out of bed too and gotten out of the room." He scratched the back of his head in embarrassment. "I'll...be in the next room so you can change." And with that he got up and began walking out to the living room and sat down.

Once she was sure that he had gone, Usagi quickly came out of the bathroom and closed the door of the room. Leaning back against the door, she sighed, then shook her head. Putting on a t-shirt and a pair of skinny jeans, along with a pair of flip-flops, she walked out.
"Ah.. Sorry.." she said again, not entirely sure what to say. Her cheeks were still flushed. "Um.. If you need clothes, there are plenty int your bedroom that should fit you.."
