Supressed emotions
1. Unable to hide
Minako Aino looked frustrated her outfit in front of a mirror, but it had to do since she was already running late for the picnic with other Inners. It was a rather warm spring day, so she had decided to wear short light blue skirt and white t-shirt, which showed a lot of cleavage. Of course just for her, Makoto Kino. It's not like she would care but that didn't stop Minako from trying. From time to time she had noticed Makoto stealing glances when she thought Minako wasn't looking. That didn't prove anything but it had encouraged Minako to try even more.
Minako had felt attracted to Makoto for a long time but never had had the courage to approach her in that way. It was so hard to tell what Makoto thought, since she never showed her true emotions. Yes, she might be a fiery soul: strong, stubborn and sometimes over protective, but she always kept people in an arm length away from herself. Minako wanted to get past that distance. She sighed and glanced her reflection one more time before leaving her home.
Minako walked down the path leading to the park where they were supposed to have the picnic. It was a beautiful day; cherry trees were full of flower, ready to blossom sometime soon. Minako was delighted as she noticed her friends under one cherry tree. There were Rei and Ami, who had become an item a while ago making Minako absolutely super jealous. They looked so happy together, Rei had made the almost introvert Ami a bit more outgoing and Ami had a calming effect on the temperamental Rei. Minako hoped that she could feel that kind of happines someday too. Of course with the girl sitting next to the happy couple, her Mako-chan. Usagi was obviously late again and propably wouldn't show up in a while as usual.
''Hi guys!'' Minako yelled, waving happily as she walked closer.
''Hi, Mina-chan!'' Ami shouted and Rei just waved lazily.
''Good timing, Mina-chan! I just got out all the food and Usagi isn't here eating all the best ones before we even have the chance to touch them.'' Makoto announced cheerfully.
''What took you so long? Don't tell me you dressed up because of our private little outing?'' Rei asked suspicioully, looking Minako from head to toes, making her blush and stammer, ''Ehe. W-Well you never know what kind of hot guys you meet out here'', not wanting to let out her true purposes.
Minako glanced quickly at Makoto and for a second she thought she saw Makoto frown, but she wasn't sure. Rei just raised an eyebrow but left it be. They started to eat and just on the cue Usagi appeared and in mere seconds managed to grab all the best food. There was nothing the Inner senshi wouldn't do for their princess and starving was little compared to dying for her, so no one bothered to protest (not even Rei).
After a while Minako was starting to get frustrated as Makoto didn't seem to notice her at all, she just stared at her food and ate almost mechanically. Minako even leaned forward to get the most distant stuff on the blanket and showed even more cleavage but in vain as Makoto's eyes stayed on her plate. On top of that, Ami and Rei were the happy couple all over the place once again. Minako started to stare them as Rei took bites of food and stuffed them delicately into Ami's mouth. Ami was blushing modestly but didn't try to stop her girlfriend's ministrations. Finally the cute eating scenery was over and Rei leaned on the cherry tree as Ami cuddled against her. Ami closed her eyes in pleasure as Rei ran her long fingers through Ami's soft and short blue locks. Minako stared them for a while and felt absolutely envious. It was awful to see a happy couple when you were lonely yourself, but still Minako was happy that they had found each other. She was the senshi of love after all. Usagi was totally ignorant to all this and kept stuffing food into her mouth until there was nothing left.
''Where's the dessert?'' Usagi whined immediately as her plate was empty.
''It's in the picnic basket.'' Makoto answered and started to stand up to fetch it.
''Let me get it.'' Minako suddenly said, wanting to get something else to do than stare Ami and Rei.
Minako stood up, went to the picnic basket and bend to take out the dessert, which was a strawberry cake. Minako loved everything that Makoto made and that cake looked absolutely delicious. Minako stood up again but stopped when she saw how beautifully the sun played on Makoto's auburn hair. She was so gorgeous that it took Minako's breath away and all she could do was stand there and stare. Suddenly Makoto turned to look at her with her bright green eyes and quickly Minako turned her head away taking a step forward in the same time. Somehow she managed to trip over the cherry tree's root and the cake flew off her hands and landed on Makoto's head. Everyone went silent as they stared the bewildered Minako laying on the ground and the expressionless Makoto sitting still.
Finally Usagi recovered a bit and yelled on the top of her lungs: ''Minako! How could you do that! I WANTED TO EAT THAT CAKE!''
''I-I'm sorry guys. I'm sorry Mako-chan, you went through so much trouble. I-I just saw a handsome man there and lost my concentration!'' Minako lied quickly, not wanting to let out her hidden secrets.
Makoto took the cake out of her head and put it on a plate, her face still expressionless.
''It's okay, Minako. I know how you like to mess things up.'', Makoto said almost in cold tone as she rose to her feet, ''You guys have to excuse me now, I'm going home to clean up.'' Makoto stated and walked away hastily.
Minako stared after her in shock.
''What's wrong with her? I apologised, didn't I?'' Minako asked in disbelief as she never could have guessed that Makoto would get so angry over some cake.
''You just don't get it, do you?'' Rei asked and Ami shot a warning glance at her.
''Get what?'' Minako asked puzzled.
Usagi started to eat the cake Makoto had removed from her head.
Rei looked like she wasn't sure whether or not she should tell, finally she started: ''Her feelings--'', but stopped as she found Ami's elbow in her ribs and Ami's hand over her mouth.
''You should go after her and ask yourself.'' Ami stated and Rei just shrugged her shoulders and smiled sheepishly.
''Yes. I just clean up and go after her...'' Minako muttered, lost in her thoughts.
Ami looked her sympathetically as she and Rei left the scene after saying their goodbyes. Usagi just kept licking the cake plate until Minako took it out of her hands with force.
''That was good! I'm sorry but I have to go now, Mina-chan! I'm sure you can handle the rest on your own, you're the senshi of love after all! Bye!'' Usagi said and winked leaving Minako wondering what she had truly meant.
Minako continued to pack the food and other equipments back to the picnic basket almost in a robotic manner. She just couldn't understand Makoto's reaction. It had been an accident, but she wanted to apologise Makoto again since never met to insult her or anything. But how could she explain that it had happened because Minako had been enchanted by Makoto's beauty? After finishing the packing, Minako stood up and prepared herself for the challenge. But then she stopped abruptly as a thought crept into her mind: was it hurt in Makoto's eyes everytime Minako mentioned boys as a excuse for her behaviour? Was that what Rei had meant? That Makoto had feelings for her? Could it be?
It was so hard to read the tall brunette as she was always careful not to show anything she didn't want others to see. But Minako wanted to know if it really had been hurt in those green eyes. Minako started to walk briskly towards Makoto's apartment building, which wasn't that far away from their picnic place. There was only one person who could give the answers in Minako's questions and that person was Makoto.
Minako hurried through the Makoto's apartment building's door as fast as she could, dragging the heavy basket with her and almost passing out because of the heat (in reality she wasn't even close to passing out, but she wanted to exaggerate things to make a dramatic effect, which would be useful when telling their possible love story to their possible grand children). She bound up the stairs with two steps a time and soon she found herself standing behind Makoto's door.
''I'm gonna get that girl..'' Minako mumbled and rang the doorbell.
There was no answer. First Minako knocked the door lightly and then beat it as hard as she could, but there was still no answer. An old lady in the next door peeked through her doorway and Minako tried to smile innocently. The old lady just glanced her disapprovingly and banged her door shut.
''Damn Makoto! I know you're in there and you must have heard me, even that old lady next door heard! I know you aren't wandering through the town covered in cream and cake pieces!'' Minako yelled.
No answer.
''Do you think you're going to get out of this that easily?!'' Minako yelled and started to get really angry.
The old lady appeared in the doorway again and this time she shook her wooden cane at Minako. Minako decided to head outside, she had never seen such a scary opponent as that old lady had been and she had seen a lot in her life. Once outside Minako tried to figure out a way to invade Makoto's apartment. She glanced the tall building and decided to go behind it.
''Hah! There you go!'', Minako said happily as she saw Makoto's window, ''Just wait, Mako-chan! Nothing is impossible for ex Sailor V or present Sailor Venus! Not even an apartment building!'' Minako yelled triumphantly.
She started to look around and spotted rusty old ladders on the wall, just few meters away from Makoto's window. An evil grin appeared on her face.
To be continued
A/N: Damn I'm starting to like this pairing more and more as I write. There's so much fun stuff I can do with Mako/Mina pairing, what I can't do with Ami/Mako pairing. Mostly because Minako is such a sexual character, at least I think so (Ups! Busted! I slipped that one out, hehe). In the next chapter something else beside the weather is getting hot. Uh.. that sounded stupid but whatever.
Chapter 2
Disclaimer: I do not own Sailor Moon, it belongs to Naoko Takeuchi/Toei animation.
A/N: Here comes the LIME, but there aren't any oranges or apples. It is not too descriptive since I had to think the rating and stuff and I'm not very good in rating so I decided to play it safe. Please r&r!
2. Venus in the house of Jupiter
Makoto Kino stood tiredly under the shower, trying to get all the cream and strawberries out of her hair and face. Why Minako always had to be like that; drool over boys like some light-headed blonde and act silly because of them. Of course Makoto wouldn't mind if Minako acted like that because of her, but no. Always some good looking guy, who Minako didn't even know in person, made her do those silly little things she always did. Makoto was jealous over her all the time, she wanted Minako to be more to her than just a mere friend.
Makoto shut down the shower and sighed. She wanted Minako to be her girlfriend. Makoto put on her bathrobe and combed her hair. She wanted to be the one to make Minako smile..to feel safe and loved. Makoto left the bathroom to go back to her bedroom. Sometimes there were moments when she thought Minako act the way she did because of her, but Minako crushed her hopes before she even got the chance to ask. Makoto stepped into the kitchen thinking: 'If only she would let me show how much I love her. If only she would love me back. If only we could kiss and Minako would--' Makoto was suddenly petrified by what she saw.
''Climb through my window?!'' she blurted out as she saw the picnic basket's contest spread all over her floor and Minako falling through her window and ending up on the floor with loud thump.
''Ouch! Ouch! Ouch!'' Minako whined and rubbed her back.
''MI-NA-KO! Why on Earth are you climbing through my window?'' These were the kinds of moments when Makoto was almost sure that Minako felt something for her, but still she couldn't banish the growing anger inside her.
Luckily Makoto was wearing a bathrobe at the moment since a towel might have dopped on the floor ages ago by shock Minako had caused.
''You didn't open the door.'' Minako explained straightforwadly.
''Maybe it was because I WAS IN THE SHOWER and therefore didn't hear the doorbell.'' Makoto said irritated and pointed her still a bit wet hair and bathrobe.
''And I was in the shower because a certain blonde threw a cake at me!'' she continued angrily.
Minako crossed her arms and asked in disbelief: ''Don't tell me your still angry with me because of that? I said it was an accident, as well as this.'' she pointed the floor which were covered with dirty dishes and leftovers.
''And what caused this to happen? The old man next door in his underwear?'' Makoto asked sarcastically, not able to control her emotions anymore and got even more irritated.
But Minako beat her to it, she was now furious as she continued: ''What the hell is wrong with you?! TELL ME NOW!! You've been so moody lately! I'm so frustrated..'' she yelled and muttered and picked up a plate on the floor and threw it at the bewildered Makoto.
Makoto dodged in the last moment and the plate crashed on the wall. Pieces dropped on the floor like a snow fall. 'What the hell is she doing? If I hadn't moved aside that one would have hit me..why is SHE so mad?' Makoto thought puzzled and started to say: ''I-I-I'' but didn't get a chance to finish as another plate and a glass flew towards her.
''Tell me what is wrong!! Why you never talk about your feelings! That makes me so angry! Don't you know you can trust me?!'' Minako yelled and kept throwing things at Makoto.
Makoto was shocked by Minako's outburst and kept dodging another glass, plate and a fork and a butter knife and finally the picnic basket itself.
''Minako! You can't just come here through my window and start to throw my things at me! Stop it!'' Makoto yelled stubbornly, not wanting to answer Minako's question.
''Not before you tell me!!'' Minako said sternly and started to empty Makoto's bookshelf, throwing a book at Makoto. Then another book and then another.
'She's gonna break down this whole apartment..' Makoto thought desperately but her eyes widened in fear as Minako picked up a certain vase on the kitchen table.
''Minako don't! Please! Th-that belonged to my parents...'' Makoto yelled and Minako stood still, shocked as Makoto almost never mentioned her parents.
''Please, don't! I don't have much left of them.'', Makoto almost whispered and leaned heavily on the wall, ''I'll tell you what is bothering me, but just put it down. You just have to live with the truth after I have finished..'' Makoto continued tiredly.
Minako put the vase carefully back in its place, suddenly ashamed by her behavior.
''I'm so sorry Mako-chan! I don't know what's wrong with me, I came here to apologise and talk..instead I ended up throwing things at you. I'm sorry, it's just...''
''It's fine, Mina-chan. I've kept this to myself too long anyway. The thing is that I love you.'' Minako looked her wide-eyed but Makoto continued her speech: ''I've loved you for a long time. I act the way I acted because I was jealous for you..it hurts me everytime you drool over boys, because I want you to drool over me and-'' while Makoto was speaking an absolutely satisfied smirk appeared on Minako's face and she started to creep closer to Makoto who didn't notice anything as she was so concentrated on her speech.
''-I want to hold you in my arms and make you feel safe and loved. And when we kissed it would be like heaven and-''
And Makoto's speech was cut as Minako closed the distance between them and kissed her. Makoto looked bewildered by the sudden change of Minako's mood but quickly started to enjoy the kiss; her eyes closed and she moaned a bit as Minako deepened the kiss. When they broke apart Makoto looked confused and Minako grinned smugly.
''Don't tell me this was some kind of a sick joke..'' Makoto whispered in fear.
Minako stayed close to Makoto and brushed her auburn locks from her face gently while saying: ''No, Mako-chan. I love you. And I have drooled over you, not some guys, they were all lies. But now I don't have suppress my true emotions anymore, same goes to you.'' Minako answered solemnly and kissed Makoto ever so sweetly.
''I can't believe this..'' Makoto whispered and wrapped her arms around Minako and Minako wrapped her legs around Makoto's waist, both wanting to let their suppressed fires to burst out.
After several minutes of giggling, walking, carrying, kissing and hitting on the walls they managed to get into Makoto's bedroom. Once there Makoto gently dropped Minako on her bed and then dropped her bathrobe on the floor as Minako undressed herself hastily, throwing her clothes all over Makoto's bedroom.
''Oh, I'm so gonna have you now.'' Minako whispered and pulled Makoto on the bed climbing on top of her, but Makoto quickly turned the tables down.
''No, I'm gonna have you first. You own me that since you destroyed my apartment.'' Makoto said huskily and pinned Minako's hand on the bed.
''Come on, I didn't destroy it entirely! I wanna take you first!'', Minako pouted and tried to break free from Makoto's grasp but soon gave in.
''Fine, you can have me first. I guess I own you that much. Do as you please with me.'' Minako said, gathering up all the dignity she could muster.
''Thank you, love.'' Makoto said and tried not laugh or grin too obviously.
Makoto started to kiss a trail of wet kisses from Minako's mouth to her throat but then suddenly stopped to ask: ''Do you mind If I leave marks?''
''No, I don't..'' Minako whispered dreamily as she closed her eyes to enjoy Makoto's touching.
Over half an hour and several love bites later a very satisfied Minako laid on the bed and halfly on top of her lay the very exhausted Makoto.
''Oh my god! That was amazing! Your thouch felt like electricity!'' Minako beamed.
''Well it propably was, I've felt my power growing and there is side effects.'' Makoto answered tiredly and rolled entirely off Minako.
''Got to admit I loved those side effects!'', Minako said giggling unashamedly, ''You were like a human-''.
''I swear if you finish that sentence I will be very angry.'' Makoto whispered, still panting a bit.
''Is that a promise? Will you punish me too? And talk dirty? I mean really dirty and subdue me and-'' Minako started to list.
''MINAKO!'' Makoto yelled, shaken by Minako's unashamedness.
''Just kidding! Gosh Makoto! Have you no sense of humor?'' Minako said trying to sound as innocent as possible.
Makoto just rolled her eyes and smiled slightly.
''I didn't know you would leave marks on my thighs too.'' Minako said changing the subject giggling.
''Sorry, does it bother you?'' Makoto asked smirking.
''No, you just suprised me. Wanna mark your girls, eh?'' Minako asked laughing and Makoto blushed not bothering to answer to the perverted Minako.
''Ha, now it is your turn to yell my name!'' Minako pronounced after a while and sat on top of the still exhausted Makoto, who looked her sweatdropping.
''I'm gonna teach you what losing control means!'' Minako explained happily as she picked up her red bow and tied Makoto's hands on the headboard with it.
Makoto looked her hands puzzled and glanced Minako sceptically, ''You know, I could brake this easily''.
''Oh, Mako-chan! Please, just play along! I promise I have handcuffs next time.'' Minako whined, not giving up.
''You own handcuffs?''
''Not yet, but soon I will. With you nothing less would be enough and I doubt if even that is.'' Minako stated happily
''Oh, so you wanna tie me--I mean do this with me again?'' Makoto asked suddenly.
''Sure thing! Don't you?'' Minako asked hesitantly.
''Yes, but I would like to be your girlfriend too, not just.. sex partner.'' Makoto answered blushing fiercely.
''Of course, Mako-chan! Me too. But for now, let's get this first time over so we can proceed to the second time.'' Minako said chuckling smugly.
''Mi-na-ko!!'' Makoto screamed almost like a siren.
''Just kidding! Relax!'' Minako said rolling her eyes to her new girlfriend.
''Relax? I'm tied up by a nympho blonde who has a perverted mind. Yeah, sure I relax.'' Makoto mumbled.
''I heard that! Now less talking and more action.'' Minako said pouting a bit, but smiled after seeing Makoto's expression.
Minako kissed her quickly before she got the chance to protest. Minako returned the favor and marked Makoto's throat before proceeding down, dragging her long blonde silky hair over Makoto's breasts and stomach. Makoto closed her eyes, enjoying the soft tickling sensation. With devilish smirk Minako parted Makoto's legs and ran her fingertips down Makoto's sensitive inner thighs. Satisfied with Makoto's vocal respond she started to bend down, making Makoto's eyes open up abruptly.
''Wait!'' Makoto said suddenly and quickly trapped Minako's head between her thighs.
''Geez! Makoto! You really don't know what losing control means, do you?'', Minako asked frustrated, not being able to move at all as Makoto's strong legs held her head still, ''You're a real party-pooper!''.
''Wha-wait, are you calling this a party?'' Makoto asked in disbelief.
''Yes, what would you call this? An aftermatch to our previous fight?'' Minako asked coyly and winked.
''I-uh-whatever. I was just going to say that this is -eh- my first -eh- time too, so -eh- take it easy on -eh- me.'' Makoto managed to confess stammering.
''Sure thing, Mako-chan! Don't worry I'll be extra gentle.'' Minako said solemnly as Makoto let go of her head and let Minako spread her legs again.
Minako kept her promise and took it easy on Makoto five times before she begged her to stop or else she would have passed out.
Finally the two laid totally exhausted on Makoto's bed, Minako snuggling against Makoto who wrapped her arms around her.
''You really are the senshi of love..that was something..'' Makoto said softly.
''And you really are the senshi of thunder, could you do that electricity thing again?'' Minako asked pleadingly.
''What now? Mina-chan! I'm exhausted, you managed to drain my energy totally..can't we do it tomorrow, please?'' Makoto whined in the brink of passing out.
''Fine, fine! I guess it has been a long day.'' Minako said faking disappointment.
''Thanks, I'll make it up to you tomorrow, I promise'' Makoto whispered in her ear.
''Hehe, I'll make sure you keep that promise.'' Minako stated triumphantly and Makoto started to regret her promise right away.
Finally they settled down and let the sleep claim them.
To be continued
A/N: The name of this chapter refers to my previous Mina/Mako strory 'Well hidden obsessions'. Those who noticed, noticed. Those who didn't, didn't. Free commercial. Hehe.
This was just the second time when I wrote somethig like this..ehe. It was as weird as last time, but this time there was more humor, I think.
And about Minako, she is such a funny character to write because she is so multi-dimensional and never unambiguous, I mean she can be whatever she wants to be; angry, loving, crazy, sexy, caring, solemn etc etc. etc. And Makoto also has at least two absolutely different sides in her, depending mostly on the situation. So my point is they are fun to write and that goes to all bssm characters.
Anyway, please r&r!
Chapter 3
Disclaimer: I do not own Sailor Moon, it belongs to Naoko Takeuchi/Toei animation. I do not own the song 'Rescue me', it belongs to Madonna. I'm just borrowing them in this non-profital work.
A/N: This is the last chapter, I hope you guys have liked it so far. Please r&r!
3. Lonely hearts no more
Minako woke up early in the next morning as the first rays of sun started to creep through the curtains. It took a moment before Minako realised where she was: in her girlfriend's room, in her girlfriend's bed. That thought brought a wide grin on Minako's face. Makoto was nowhere to be seen, but judging by the voices coming from the kitchen she was probably making breakfast for them. Minako smiled adoringly to her thoughtfullness and decided to go 'thank' her. Minako jumped out of the bed and shivered a bit as her bare feet touched the floor. Quickly she put on her underwear and t-shirt, which had been tossed all over Makoto's bedroom last night.
Minako was sore all over but she didn't care, it just reminded her about the last night's activities. 'Makoto sure knows how to please a girl, especially that being her first time. But then again, so did I! Hehe.' Minako thought smugly. She sneaked out of Makoto's bedroom and into her kitchen. She saw that Makoto had cleaned all the mess she had caused last night. Luckily nothing really important had been broken and instead something wonderful had been born. And then there was Makoto, at the stove, making breakfast and humming along a song. Minako sneaked closer as silently as she could.
---
Makoto had woken up early that morning. She didn't want to wake up Minako so she had crept as silently as she could outside and had fetched them something to eat and little something for Minako. Now she was busy with preparing breakfast and humming with the song on the radio:
''I'm talking, I'm talking. I believe in the power of love. I'm singing, I'm singing. I believe that you can rescue me.
With you I'm not a little girl, with you I'm not a man. When all the hurt inside of me comes out, you understand.
You see that I'm ferocious, you see that I'm weak, you see that I'm silly and pretentious and a freak.
But I don't feel too strange for you, don't know exactly what you do. I think when love is pure you try to understand the reasons why and I prefer this mystery and gives me hope that there could be a person that loves me
Rescue me, your love has given me hope
Rescue me, I'm drowning
Baby throw out your rope''
A pair of warm hands wrapped around Makoto's waist and startled her a bit.
''Here is your rope..'' A sleepy sounding Minako mumbled while leaning on Makoto's back.
''Thanks and good morning Mina-chan. Did you sleep well?'' Makoto asked grinning widely.
''Morning.. I slept heavenly, you see I had a soft human pillow..'' Minako mumbled leaning heavily against Makoto's back.
''Nice to hear and so did I by the way..'' Makoto said softly while taking out a flower she had put into her cleavage. She turned around slowly to face Minako and gave her the white rose.
''Oh, Mako-chan! That's so sweet! But how?'' Minako asked totally surprised.
''I woke up early in the morning and fetch it while I was shopping breakfast for us.'' Makoto explained smiling shyly.
''Thanks! I'm so glad it's not red like Tuxedo Kamen's.'' Minako said smiling.
''Yeah. It's white, as pure as your heart is.'' Makoto almost whispered and blushed slightly.
''Oh god! Mako-chan! No-one has said anything so wonderful to me ever before!'' Minako yelled in delight and kissed Makoto passionately.
''I'm so sorry about yesterday, you know the invasion and the destroying of your apartment and stuff..I should have said something instead..'' Minako said embarassed after they broke the kiss.
''Forget it. It's not entirely your fault, If I had had the courage to speak out my mind before, none of that would have happened.''
''Um..yeah..but let me at least make it up to you and also to thank you.'' Minako whispered and turned Makoto rather roughly to face the kitchen counter.
''Minako. What do yo-?'' she blushed fiercely as Minako started to undress her apron hastily.
''Minako, wait! Please stop! I'm still sore from the last night, it was a miracle I was able to walk this morning..'' Makoto confessed blushing like over-heated tomato.
''Oh, hehe. Okay, I guess later then.'' Minako said sheepishly and managed blushed even more fiercely than Makoto.
However, she still kept clinging on Makoto's back as Makoto set up the table.
''Mina-chan, you can let go now. The breakfast is ready.'' Makoto said amused.
''Do I have to?'' Minako whined.
''It would be easier to eat.'' Makoto reasoned.
''Hmmh, okay then..'' Minako mumbled and sat at the kitchen table.
They started to eat breakfast while a fierce foot play was taking place under the table.
''Um..Minako?'' Makoto asked after a moment of silence.
''Yes?'' Minako mumbled while chewing loudly.
''D-do you think we should have dated before sleeping together?'' Makoto blurted out.
''No, not necessarily. It was more fun this way! Kidding!'', Minako answered but then started to explain more seriously: ''We have known for years and at least I have been in love with you for god knows how long.. I've saved myself for the right one and I gave myself to you because I think you're the right one.''.
''I was actually thinking the same..'', Makoto admitted shyly, still not used to share her thoughts and feelings entirely, ''But I would still like to date too, would you like to go out with me tonight?''
''I'd love to.'' Minako beamed while eating with a appetite which would beat Usagi any day.
After they finished the breakfast Minako helped Makoto to do the dishes. After the morning rituals (which included a huge amount of snuggling and making out), Minako finally was ready to leave. The new couple still clung in the doorway as if someone's life was depending on it.
''I'll pick you at seven then.'' Makoto finally said.
''You better be or I come to pick you up.'' Minako warned.
''Uh, I believe that. Well, see ya then.'' Makoto said smiling adoringly at her girlfriend.
''Okay.'' Minako replied and kissed Makoto for the last time.
When Makoto closed the door, the door next to her opened immediately and the same old lady that had harassed Minako yesterday appeared in the doorway.
''Good morning, Minako-san.'' the little old lady said.
''Morning. But how do you know my name?'' Minako asked puzzled.
''I over heard it last night.. many times. The walls are thin around here, lassie.'', Minako turned beet red by that, ''I just wanted to tell I'm happy that you laid Makoto-chan there. I was starting to think she was a frigid or something.''
''Well, what can I say. I can tame even the most stubborn ones.'' Minako answered smugly, not embarassed at all anymore.
''I heard that!'' Makoto yelled through the door.
''Funny, you didn't seem to hear my yelling and door beating last night.'' Minako yelled back.
''Oh, just get going!'' Makoto shouted frustrated.
''Yes, dear.'' Minako shouted back, chuckling delighted.
The old woman also chuckled a bit: ''You're acting like a married couple already! Be sure to send me an invitation to your wedding''.
''Sure, I promise. Bye.'' Minako said smiling brightly and headed downstairs.
---
2 weeks later...
Makoto and Minako were having a walk in the same park were they had had the picnic two weeks ago. Cherry trees were blossoming and people were gathered underneath to drink, eat and spend time with each other.
''Oh, Mako-chan! Look there's the same tree where I threw the cake on your head.'' Minako said delighted, pointing to her left.
''Yeah, it sure is. That was the best cake I have ever made since it brought us together.'' Makoto said, smiling to the memory.
''I agree. Come on, let's go! It's a pure miracle there's no one under that tree yet.'' Minako stated and dragged Makoto with her.
Makoto sat down leaning against the tree's trunk, Minako sat between her legs and rested her head on Makoto's shoulder. They just sat there, enjoying the moment as pink cherry petals flew on the wind and landed on the grassy ground and on top of them.
''I love you, Mako-chan.'' Minako said softly, touched by the moment.
''I love you too, Mina-chan.'' Makoto replied and caressed Minako's hand.
''Well, what have we here? Two love birds?'' Rei asked smirking as she and Ami were walking down the path with a picnic basket.
''Just having a romantic walk and a moment under the cherry trees.'' Minako answered still leaning on Makoto, eyes closed.
''Can we join?'' Ami asked shyly.
''Sure.'' Makoto said, now stroking Minako's long golden bangs.
The four friends (and two couples) shared the food. Then a feeding competition started between Rei and Minako. Both kept stuffing food into Ami and Makoto's mouths as fast as they could. Ami and Makoto were indescridible happy when there was finally no food left. But that, naturally, wasn't enough for Minako and Rei.
''So Mina-chan, I bet you can't carry Makoto on your backpack like I can Ami.'' Rei said smirking as she lifted Ami off the ground easily.
''Rei.'' Ami tried to protest but in vain.
''Hah, you'll see. Mako-chan, hop on my backpack.''
''No, I'm too tall and heavy for you.'' Makoto tried to protest but also in vain as Minako shot a scary glare at her.
''You better not to drop me.'' Makoto mumbled to Minako as she hopped on her backpack.
''Hah, there you go Rei.'' Minako said triumphantly, carrying Makoto, ''Now let's race!'' she continued but suddenly lost balance and took a step back.
The root where she had tripped last time they were having a picnic was still there and Minako fell over with Makoto, landing on top of her.
''Ouch!''
''Oh, gosh! Mako-chan, I'm sorry! Did it hurt badly?'' Minako asked concerned and turned around.
''Not that bad. Just my head and back and arms and legs..'' Makoto listed her injuries.
''Worry not! Sailor Venus will nurse you back to health in no time!'' Minako beamed happily.
''Oh geez, if I were you Makoto I would run and hard.'' Rei said smirking devilishly and even Ami smiled slightly.
''No, it's okay. I love her and she can do what she wants to me.'' Makoto said staring Minako absolutely adoringly.
Ami and Rei stared her in shock, as if she had totally lost her mind for good.
''Oh, Mako-chan! You can also do what you want with me! Don't worry, I will take good care of you!'' Minako beamed sitting on top of Makoto's stomach.
''She has lost it and bad.'' Rei whispered to Ami as they excused themselves from the over happy couple.
''I don't know what I would do without you.'' Makoto whispered as she stroked Minako's chin.
''I don't know what I would do without you, but I'm happy I don't have to know that.'' Minako whispered back as she gazed deeply into Makoto's green eyes.
''Me too, Mina-chan. Me too.'' Makoto said and pulled Minako into hug.
They lay there, on the ground, enjoying each others company as the cherry petals slowly covered them with pink carpet. Finally they stood up and went to home, hand in hand. Both finally being able to experience true happiness.
THE END
A/N: Oh dear, the hopeless romantic in me was shown in the end.. eheh. I hope you liked it. If someone wondered the food/flower thing so early in the morning, Makoto simply went to kiosk which was open 24/7, hehe. Well, this was the end. Thank you for reading and especially thank you if you bothered to review! See ya round!
