Hi there everyone! Now, I know that I haven't posted any of my other stories up yet, but they're coming! In the meantime, here's a little something to tide you over until they get here. Oh! And read my "Read-Me"s! They'll offer some explainations.
This story was inspired from dreams that I've been having for a few years now, so this could be considered a true story. As usual, this is a songfic. Hope you guys enjoy it!
It'll be better if you guys listen to the song while
reading the story. The song is simply beautiful.

"Heart of Innocence"
By: Callista Matthews
Rated: G
E-mail: Callista Matthews@sailormoon.com
The mists surrounded her. Enveloping her with its strange warmth. A shadow appeared within the protective cover of the mists. It whispered to her.
"Serenity..."
Serena bolted up from her bed, the full moon shining her features. She panted heavily, the dream taxing on her emotional and physical energy. Running a hand through her goldern locks, he brought her eyes to the light that was illuminating her features.
"Who are you?" She asked her guardian. Her dream lover. Her own knight in shining armor. "Why do you keep returning in my dreams?"
*~*~*~*~*~*~*Dream Sequence*~*~*~*~*~*
She was sitting on a bench, surrounded by the mists again. There was only white surrounding her. No trees, grass, or anything much. Just pure white. Serena looked down on herself and gasped in shock.
A body-hugging dress with gold sequencing graced her body. She smoothed her hand over the fabric and felt only cool silk. She reached her hair and at first, didn't notice anything amiss. Just as she was about to bring her hand down, her hand caught on something resting on her hair between the odangoes. She carefully felt the material and deducted that it was a metal. A heavy metal at that. She felt smooth stones embedded within what seemed like a crown.
"Serenity...you're here..."
Strong, muscular arms embraced her, cherishing her lithe body with their loving strength. Serena closed her eyes in ellation. 'Your arms are pure heaven.' She thought, bliss saturating her senses.
She drew her hands over the arms that were covering her, protecting her. She used her hands to trace the muscles, cherishing the love that simple embrace gave her.
She carefully, slowly, turned around. She was afraid that too sudden a movement will prove this heaven was only a mirage. She turned in the hug and came face to shoulder of the man holding her. She gently started to gaze upon his face...
*~*~*~*~*~*End Dream Sequence*~*~*~*~*~*
"Why do I keep having this dream over and over again? Why can he show me his face?" Serena exasperatedly whispered to herself. "Why can't I see you?"
~.~.~.~Sometimes I wake up in the dark night. And in
my mind there's a picture of you. I know someday
this dream will come alive. So for now, your shadow
will do. I've never seen your face, but I know you're
in my heart...~.~.~.~
Serena laid back down on her bed, hoping that she'll have the opportunity to see him again. She
wondered why he came to her at certain times. He was always there, always there when she needed some the most. Whenever she went to sleep distressed, irated, or even lonesome, he was there. Always there to lift her spirits and make her feel better about herself and living life.
~.~.~.~Maybe someday, some place, I'll hold you in my arms~.~.~.~
'Come for me soon...So I don't have to be lonely anymore.'
~.~.~.~I have a gift for you. Something I've held on to, waiting for your sweet caress. No ribbon has been untied. From all that I hold inside. And only you will posess, this heart of innocence~.~.~.~
She couldn't go back to sleep. Counting sheep didn't help at all. Serena was getting impatient again. Her curiosity was getting the better of her. 'I have to go to sleep. I can't see him anywhere else.' She tossed and turned. She finally gave up and decided to probe her memories of the dreams instead.
~.~.~.~I lay my head down on a pillow of white. Here in the dark, I am cradled in peace. No loss from yesterday to haunt me at night. No tears to dry, no sad memories. There's a heart to hold, and I will safely
keep. The strength that's in my soul until you come to
me~.~.~.~
*~*~*~*~*~*Dream Sequence 2*~*~*~*~*~*
"Please, tell me who you are!" She begged the dark figure. "I need to know!"
"At the moment, I can't, my love. Destiny prevents me from revealing to you my identity. Be patient, love. Time will soon come to show you." Serena could only discern the man's clothes. Armor with silver plating adorned his body. His face, however, was shrouded from her. Concealing his features.
Tears trickled down her face. "Why? I don't
understand. Why do you keep coming to me?"
"Simple, princess. You need me. I love you and I'm here when you need me." The man reached out a hand to her and Serena desperately wanted to make contact.
"I need to see your face. I know you're in my heart. I want to hold you in my arms, please!" She tenderly clasped his hand in hers.
The man looked uncertain, tilting his head to
the side as if contemplating her request. Hesitantly, he nodded. "Alright. You'll see my face for a brief moment. But when you wake up, you will remember nothing. Nothing of my face, nothing of my identity. This memory will be buried, and buried deep inside your mind until the right time comes." And with that, he stepped into the light.
~.~.~.~I have a gift for you. Something I've held on
to, waiting for your sweet caress. No ribbon has been
untied. From all that I hold inside. And only you will
posess, this heart of innocence~.~.~.~
Serena gasped in delight as the man she'd been waiting for her whole life revealed his beloved face
to her. Midnight black hair adorned his head with an adorable rougish lock refused to go with the rest. Soulful blue eyes stared into her soul.
"You look familar...Wait, you've never told
me your name!"
"Well, since you'll forget my face and a majority of this dream anyway, I guess it wouldn't harm the Timeline." With that, he strode to Serena, bending so that his mouth was mere centimeters to her ear. Serena felt the warm breeze of his breath as he whispered,
"Endymion..."
*~*~*~*~*~*End Dream Sequence 2*~*~*~*~*~*
Her eyes drifted open ever so softly. Remnants of the dream retreating to the inner recesses of her subconscious. It felt like a soft but strong mist was was blocking her memory of her dreams.
She turned her head to stare at the stars, about to pale away as the sun's rays were drawing ever so near.
She directed her thoughts to the stars. 'I know you're out there somewhere. I just know it. Your face is...it's so near! I know I saw it, but why can't I remember it! Please, come for me soon.'
~.~.~.~Every night I make a wish before I fall asleep. That destiny will take your hand, and lead you to me, ohh~.~.~.~
She whispered, "I'll be waiting..."
~.~.~.~I have a gift for you. Something I've held on to, waiting for your sweet caress. No ribbon has been untied. From all that I hold inside. And only you will posess, this heart of innocence~.~.~.~
>~>~>~>The End>~>~>~>
This story was inspired by actual dreams that I've been having. This man comes to me whenever I feel bad and feel other strong emotions. I can feel him, but I can't see his face. I'd like to think that Fate is concealing his identity from me on purpose until it's time for me to seek him out. Tell me what you think! If you're reading this from Fanfiction.net, review me! If you're reading this from Moonromance.com, e-mail me! Until next time!
