Yes, yes, I did ask her. I was just going through

the motions. We were fated, and I certainly wasn't

going to tempt fate (again). So why didn't I see it

before today? I never trusted my feelings. I was

afraid I was lying to her. Yet, as I gazed into her

loving eyes, I realize that I love this woman, and

not because of destiny. I always had, and I always

will. I promise you, Usagi Tsukino, from now on,

you will know how much I love you.

"I do."
