Chapter 3

Jedite was fast asleep and Serena lay comfortably against him, her body melded perfectly against his, she did not mind, she was very much deep in thought.
It had been very clear to her, the look in Jedite's eyes before, it was so sad, a deep longing unfulfilled that could make the strongest of heart shed tears of pity.
"Jedite…" She murmured softly, looking at him as he slept, he looked so peaceful, his sleep messed up blonde hair in disarray, it almost seemed like the great war had never happened, like things were exactly as they were during the silver millennium, but Serena knew that was far from the truth.
She sighed and laid her head back on his chest, Jedite turning to the darkness was her fault, it was her fault all along, if she hadn't turned him down time and time again in the silver millennium maybe things would be different.
Her mind was a chaotic mess, and worst of all she was a prisoner, that stuck with her no matter what thoughts ran through her mind.
"You should sleep, love…" Jedite murmured softly, his eyes still closed over his hunter green eyes.
"Jedite" Serena said softly as he opened his eyes to reveal the hunter green irises "Please… You must let me go".
"No" He said, short and simple, saying nothing more after that as he dosed back off to sleep, his arm tight around her petite waist.

The morning was thick with tension, Jedite would occasionally glance at the lovely princess with a passionate longing, but would look away when she noticed his staring.
"Jedite" Serena sighed aloud "We must come to a compromise if you are not going to release me, I do not wish to stay in this room forever, I want to go outside".
"I will think about it under one condition" Jedite said, pinning her with his gaze of hunter green.
"What?" Serena asked cautiously, not sure if she really even wanted to know what he was thinking.
"You marry me".
