Little Angel Chapter 17

A soft twilight filled the light pink room. In the corner, near the bed, a rabbit nightlight glowed dimly. Usagi stood leaning against the doorframe, a knowing smile on her lips. As she turned to leave a voice called her back.

"Mamma, don't leave yet."

"Rini, you should be asleep. It's almost nine," Usagi gently scolded.

"But that's the thing. I can't sleep." Rini sat up, her hair falling over her shoulders. "The story daddy read to me didn't work."

"Because you had no idea what the book was about." Bunny shook her head as she sat on the bed. "I told him that Tom Clancy's 'Rainbow Six' was out of your league."

Rini giggled, laying her head on her mother's lap. Safe, loved, home. "Sing to me, please."

Bunny looked at her before finally nodding and then humming a few bars. Her soprano voice carried softly in the room.

"A gentle breeze From Hushabye Mountain

Softly blows towards Lullaby Bay

It fills the sails of boats that are waiting

Waiting to sail your worries away."

ChibiUsa smiled even though she knew she was falling asleep. Her eyelids drooped.

"It isn't far to Hushabye Mountain

And your boat waits down by the key

The winds of night so softly are sighing

Soon they will sail your worries to see

So close your eyes on Hushabye Mountain Wave goodbye to cares of the day

And watch your boat From Hushabye Mountain

Sail far away from Lullaby Bay."

Usagi hummed a little until she was positive that ChibiUsa was asleep. Gently she lay her daughter back against the pillows, stoodand walked quietly to the door. She turned around one last time and felt arms go around her waist.

"What are you doing?"

"Keep your voice down. She's finally asleep, no thanks to you."

Heero pouted. ""What? I thought every kid loved that story."

"Not when that kid is 10 years old and wants a fairy tale instead."

"Well, I figured that it would either hold her attention until she fell asleep or bore her to sleep." He shook his head. "Looks like both plans failed."

"Not really." Bunny turned in his arms, her own snaking around Heero's neck. A dimond ring caught some of the light in the hallway. "You had her attention when you paused to yawn but then she got bored. She might of actually slept for a while."

"Hmm. Well, do you think it might work on you?"

"Not likely, but you can try."

"Thanks, I appreciate that." Heero let his wife go, reluctantly, and watched her walk down the hall towards their room. His attention back on his daughter, Heero felt a now familiar feeling run through him. After being lost for years, he had finally come home and found a family in one big package.
