Venus wasn’t usually taken with anyone at first sight, aside from her Princess. When the outers walked into the room, though, a gasp left her lips at their presence alone. She watched as they bowed and greeted her princess. She became shocked when they greeted herself and her fellow soldiers. Yes they were princesses and should be treated as such, yet they were in the same position as the outer senshi, who were also princesses.
When Venus felt the lips of Uranus’s on her hand, heat rose to her cheeks, making her beauty glow even brighter than she would’ve liked. As today was Serenity’s birthday, Venus did not wish to outshine her beauty. When the outers joined them in line, Venus felt she could breathe, but only for a moment. Her eyes looked to the side of her and she could see Uranus’s body beside her own. She took a hold of Mars’s hand and squeezed it for comfort, ignoring her looks of confusion.
The kingdom shone brightly the night of their princess’s celebration. Venus even enjoyed herself in dance and drink more than usual. She flirted, was flirted with, many suitors, though as she danced with them, her eyes couldn’t stop looking for the outer senshi, specifically Uranus. Something about that princess seemed to captivate her. Needing a break from the party, though making sure Serenity was still smiling brightly, she kissed the hand of her princess and made her way to the terrace; though making sure to grab a drink on the way out.
The night air was enjoyable on her heated skin. Sweat had begun to make its appearance and make its way down her skin. Loose hair stuck to her forehead and her neck, though her panted face remained as radiant as did the dress she wore. She took a drink from her cup, then set it down on the edge. Venus removed her shoes, not used to wearing them, then climbed onto the edge. She was a bit wobbly, but she had grace in her. She wanted to turn her head to the window to catch another glimpse at the princess of Uranus, but she feared what would happen if she did.
Venus had heard stories of the outer senshi. They weren’t to be seen by the inner senshi, were supposed to remain alone. Princess Serenity didn’t enjoy those stories though; Venus couldn’t say she enjoyed them either. To be alone and to guard a kingdom you knew nothing about? Venus couldn’t do that. She had much admiration and respect to the senshi, her heart even wished to bond with theirs.
Becoming lost in her thoughts, Venus didn’t realize that when she reached for her drink, she tipped it over and off the ledge. She shook her head at herself, then lifted her hand to her forehead, wiping a tear from her eye from her previous thoughts.
