Prompt: Glitter and Cupcakes
Warning: Character Death!
Usagi smiled when the little girl handed her the cupcake. You like strawberry best right Auntie? She didn't, but that was ok because strawberry was Chibi-Usa's favorite. The icing was chocolate which was her favorite so she licked that off first. She stopped when she heard a giggle.
"You're silly Auntie." A clear plastic bag full of glitter and confetti was placed on the couch between them.
"You think so?" Another giggle as Usagi sprinkled glitter and confetti over dark curly hair.
"Yes. Mommy's not so silly any more. Daddy says its cuz of the whore bones. What are whore bones Auntie?"
Usagi almost choked on the last bit of icing.
"I think Daddy meant hormones. It's from the baby."
Usagi thanked Makoto for the glass of water and drank it quickly while the other woman dragged her eight year old away from the grown up area.
Usagi looked back at the cupcake. Makoto's daughter was eight years old today. She hadn't even been born when the whole let's travel to the future with Chibi-Usa thing happened. But then Crystal Tokyo never happened either. How could she have ruled paradise without her Prince Charming, her soul mate and lover?
She put the cupcake down. It was strawberry after all, and that was Chibi-Usa's favorite. But there was no Chibi-Usa anymore. She only existed in dreams and memories of a could have been future.
