* * * * * * * * * * * *> Chapter 24 - Ami's Night <
Ami and Ryo walked along the street as a light drizzle fell. They had just left the Juubanland amusement park, where Ami and the other Senshi had thwarted a Dark Kingdom effort to recapture the nijizuishou carriers. She held his hand, enjoying the feel of his fingers intertwined with her own, and kept glancing over at him as they walked.
She still vividly recalled seeing him captured by the youma. It had felt like fingers of ice had closed around her heart, and a tremendous weight had seemed to press on her chest. She had wanted to immediately jump at the youma to rescue Ryo, but her training had prevailed and she stood her ground. Nothing else in her life had felt so miserable as that moment, and she had never felt so relieved as holding him in her arms after freeing him from the youma's crystal. As she looked at him now, she had come to realize just how very important he was to her.
Ryo looked at her and smiled. He'd developed an overwhelming crush on Ami when he'd first seen her, and since he'd had a chance to get to know her, his feelings had only grown stronger. She was the most beautiful girl he'd ever known, and incredibly intelligent. Like him, she tended to be shy and reserved, but she had an incredible strength within her which he felt he lacked. He loved being able to spend time with her, and had been overjoyed when she had asked him to accompany her to the party at the Cherry Blossom Club. That had been their first real "date" that hadn't involved studying together. It still concerned him that she had been at risk because of him, but felt entirely comfortable in trusting in her. He gently squeezed her hand, seeing her eyes sparkle happily as her smile grew larger.
"Let's get something to eat," he suggested.
"OK," she agreed.
They entered a small fast-food restaurant, each ordering a burger.
"Thank you, Ami... for everything," he said, after they sat down.
"You're quite welcome," she said. "You know I could never let anything happen to you." She took his hand again and squeezed it reassuringly in her own.
He smiled then leaned over and kissed her cheek. A powerful warmth swelled within him and he sat back uncertainly.
"Is anything wrong?" she asked, feeling a warmth of her own from the kiss.
"Ah... No... of course not," he stammered.
In fact, he was uncomfortable with the power of the emotions he was experiencing, afraid of doing something that might offend her. He cared for her very much, and didn't want to spoil it.
She saw the lingering uncertainty in his eyes. With a smile, she reach over and caressed his cheek with her finger, then brushed her lips over his own.
He gasped softly for breath, feeling his heart pounding in his chest.
"Ryo," she whispered breathlessly. "I... I love you."
"I love you, Ami," he said, his voice barely audible and choked with emotion. "I have from the very beginning."
She nodded, then kissed him again. "I'm very happy to be here with you."
"I'm happy to be with you," he said. He took a sip of his drink, still struggling with his feelings, then picked up his burger.
She took a bite of her own burger, and they ate together quietly.
As they ate, she glanced over at him again, once more noticing just how very attractive he was to her. She continued to feel a powerful warmth inside herself as she looked at him.
"What is it?" he asked.
"Hunh?... Oh, ah, I was just noticing... uhm... how handsome you are," she said, blushing.
He felt his own cheeks flush, but thought her blush made her even more beautiful. "Oh, I'd hardly say that," he said softly.
"I would," she said, leaning closer. "Most definitely." She brushed her hand along his cheek again. "And I don't care what anyone else might say."
"Well... as long as you think so," he said quietly. "I think you're the most beautiful girl I've ever seen."
Her blush deepened, and she smiled. "Thank you," she said, her voice a whisper.
"Shall we head home?" he asked, as they finished their meal.
She nodded.
They stood up and walked to the door. Outside, the drizzle continued, and they zipped up their jackets, walking together hand in hand.
"Well, now that the Dark Kingdom's plan has been stopped... I suppose you'll be heading home," he said.
"Oh, no," she said. "I'd like to make sure you're OK."
"Really?"
She smiled and nodded. "Is your parents' guest room still available?" she asked.
He looked at her in surprise. "Ami? Do you mean it?"
"Of course," she said, squeezing his hand. "I love you, Ryo... and I want to be with you."
"Alright," he finally said. "I'd love that... I love you."
She leaned closer and kissed his cheek.
Just then, the rain intensified, turning into a downpour. They broke into a run as the rain chilled them, quickly soaking their jackets. They reached the corner just in time to catch a bus, climbing aboard and out of the rain.
"Are you OK?" he asked, as they sat down.
"Just wet," she said, nodding.
As the bus pulled into motion, he noticed she was shivering, even as he felt chilled himself. He placed his hand over hers. "You're cold," he observed. "We'll be home soon and can get warmed up."
She smiled at him. "I'll be fine."
About ten minutes later, they reached their stop. It was still raining hard, and they raced down the street toward Ryo's house. They hurried inside and slipped off their soaking wet jackets, then removed their shoes. Both were feeling chilled as the rain had soaked their clothes.
He looked at her, seeing her blouse clinging to her body transparently, her white bra plainly visible.
"I think we need to change," he suggested. "I can lend you a bathrobe."
She nodded. "Thank you. I appreciate that."
They walked upstairs and he pulled a robe from his closet and handed it to her.
"You can have the shower first, if you'd like," he said.
She shook her head. "No. You go first," she said. "I want you to be careful after being captured by the Dark Kingdom."
He hesitated, then nodded. "OK."
She stepped closer and kissed him. "I love you."
"I love you," he said, smiling.
Ami went into the guest room and closed the door. She slipped off her skirt, then peeled off her wet blouse. Reaching behind her back, she unfastened her bra and pulled it off, then slid her panties down along her legs and stepped out of them. She picked up the robe again and put it on, pulling it tight around herself to combat the lingering chill.
Gathering up her wet clothes, she walked over to the door to his room. He'd neglected to latch the door, and as she stood there, she caught a glimpse of him wearing only his boxer shorts. As he started to slip off his shorts, she found herself captivated. 'Gods, what a nice butt,' she thought. She blushed scarlet at her reaction, finally forcing herself to turn away out of respect for his privacy. Standing there, however, she still saw in her mind the image of him removing his shorts, and felt a warm, moist sensation spreading within her. Just then, his door opened, interrupting her reverie. Like her, he was wearing a bathrobe.
"Oh, Ami," he exclaimed. "You startled me."
"Sorry," she said. "I was just going to take my clothes down and put them in the washing machine. Would you like me to take yours too?"
"That would be great. Thanks," he said.
He picked up his clothes and handed them to her.
"I'll be right back," she said.
He nodded, then walked into the bathroom.
Downstairs, she placed their clothes in the washing machine. Hearing him taking his shower, she decided not to start the machine until later.
She walked back upstairs and sat down on the foot of his bed, pulling one of her books from her briefcase. By chance, the book fell open to a section on human sexuality. Ami glanced at it, a soft blush spreading across her cheeks as she again recalled her accidental view of Ryo undressing. She shook her head, trying to clear away such thoughts. Reaching for the remote, she switched on his television. Her finger hit the channel button by mistake, switching to one of the soft-core dramas that populated Japanese television. On the program, she found a man and woman becoming very passionate. She quickly changed the channel, convinced she didn't want to be facing such feelings if she was going to be staying the night in Ryo's guest room, with him just a few steps down the hall. Nevertheless, certain parts of her refused to be swayed by her reasoning, reminding her of just how attractive he was and that he really did have a great butt. She blushed again and shook her head as this internal conflict continued.- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Ryo stood in the shower, struggling with his own feelings. He was determined to maintain the bounds of proper behavior while she stayed with him. Yet, even as he reminded himself of this, he was being plagued by numerous images of them being passionately involved. His body was responding, his penis swelling with arousal. He reached for the control, turning down the temperature and feeling cold water pouring over him.
Stepping out of the shower, he was still faced with images of Ami naked. He groaned softly, scared that these warned of him losing control. He could well imagine Ami being terribly upset by such an action on his part, and her angrily storming out. His heart froze at the thought.- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Ami returned to the guest room and sat on the edge of the bed, trying to clear her mind. As she sat there, she began to experience vague memories of the Silver Millennium. Turning her attention to these in the hope of finding a distraction, she instead seemed to see Ryo there in her past life. She shook her head, then closed her eyes, working to focus her concentration. As she did so, the images of the past became clearer. She could see Princess Serenity with the other Senshi in a grand palace. Next, she saw a royal ball, where she was clearly dancing with a young man who looked exactly like Ryo.
She sat there in shock, wondering if this was really the truth, or if her memory was playing tricks on her. They had all supposed that Usagi and Mamoru were the only lovers of the past to remain connected in the present. Was it possible that she too had a soul-mate from the past who was waiting to reconnect with her? Was Ryo that person?
As she considered this, her memories showed her past self and her young man retiring to her bedroom after the ball to spend the night together. Ami felt the warmth of arousal swelling within her, taking her breath away. Her memories of the past were spilling into her thoughts of the present, and she blushed as a powerful sexual desire swelled with her emotions.
She heard Ryo come out of the bathroom and walk into his room. Still struggling with her own feelings, she rushed into the bathroom, closed the door, and turned on the water. She slipped off her robe and stepped into the shower, letting the warm water wash over her. Slowly washing her hair, and then running soap over her body, she felt the lingering chill of the cold rain fading away. As her hand brushed over her small breast, she felt her nipple swelling with arousal. She sighed as a burst of pleasure swept through her, and pulled her hand away. It still embarrassed her to think of sex and arousal with anything other than intellectual detachment, but increasingly she found her perception changing. She had to admit that she loved Ryo very much, more than she had ever cared for anyone, and that she found him incredibly attractive. Previously, she hadn't even seriously thought of having sex, but now could only think of doing it with him.
She turned off the water and stepped out of the shower. Picking up a towel, she began slowly drying herself off. After brushing her hair, she stood there, still naked, and torn by conflicting emotions. Finally, she took a deep breath and wrapped her towel around herself. She glanced at herself in the mirror, confirming that the towel covered, just barely, everything that needed to be covered. Hesitating, she was again torn by whether she really wanted to do this, but then turned and opened the door.
Ryo was sitting on his bed, wearing his pajamas and reading a book. He looked up to see Ami entering his room, his eyes going wide at the sight of her in only a towel. His body immediately responded, and he shifted position uncomfortably.
She giggled softly as she noticed his reaction.
"Ami," he gasped. "Is... Is anything wrong?"
"Of course not," she said with a smile, stepping forward and sitting down on the edge of his bed. "Why would you think that?"
"I, uh, I don't know," he stammered, desperately trying to ignore his own swelling arousal. "Ah... I just... uhm... wondered why... ah... you're only wearing a towel."
"No real reason," she said softly. "I just... felt like it."
He nodded, not entirely sure what to make of it. He was sure she wouldn't do this deliberately, and struggled to suppress the sexual desire she was stirring within him.
She giggled again, then leaned over and kissed his cheek. "Are you uncomfortable?"
He looked at her in surprise, a blush spreading across his cheeks. "No... of course not."
"Are you sure?" she asked, kissing him again.
His eyes slid down over her, taking in her long, shapely legs emerging from under the towel she was wearing. In his mind, he again saw images of her naked, but began to notice that in his vision she was hardly protesting the situation. He looked into her face, seeing her happy smile, and the sparkle in her eyes. His heart warmed as he took in just how beautiful she was. She leaned forward and pressed her lips to his. With hardly a thought, he embraced her. Her mouth eased open and her tongue gently brushed his lip.
"Oh Ryo, my love," she sighed.
"Ami," he whispered. "I can't believe this."
"Why not?" she asked. "Don't you like it?"
"Of course I like it," he said. "I... ah... just wasn't expecting it."
She giggled, then kissed him again. "Neither was I... but I've realized that I really like it."
He kissed her in return, feeling his own arousal swelling still more. "How far are you planning to take this?"
"How far would you like to?" she asked with a grin, running her hand down over his chest.
"Ami, I'm serious," he said.
She nodded. "We both spend too much time being serious, my love..."
"Is this the famous Mizuno Ami, girl genius, saying she's been too serious?" he asked, now grinning.
"Well... yeah, I guess so," she admitted, giggling happily. "And she needs to get her boyfriend to loosen up." She sat up and started tickling him.
"Ami!" he protested, falling back against his pillow.
As they tickled each other, her towel slipped, baring one of her breasts. With a gasp of embarrassment, she reflexively grabbed for the towel, then paused. Changing her mind, she grinned and tossed the towel away, then rolled on top of him, completely naked.
"Ami!" he gasped in shock, now hesitating to respond to her continued tickling.
Giggling happily, she pressed her lips to his, feeling her insides running hot and wet even as she was filled with tremendous love and happiness. She could feel his aroused manhood against her through the fabric of his pajamas.
As the kiss went on, and her tongue slipped into his mouth, he enfolded her in his arms, thoroughly enjoying the feel of her body against his own.
"Oh, Ryo," she sighed. "I love you."
"I love you," he whispered.
He groaned as she rubbed herself across his swollen member. His hand slid down over her back and onto her bare bottom, where he admired the feel of her soft, smooth flesh. After a moment, he grinned, then rolled her over and resumed tickling her.
"Ryo!" she cried, squirming as his fingers swept along her ribs.
He continued tickling her. "Tell me what you want," he said, laughing.
"What?"
"Tell me what you want tonight," he repeated.
"I... I want to be with you," she said, still squirming beneath him.
He kissed her, still tickling her. "If that was all you wanted, I doubt I'd have my favorite beautiful girl genius naked on my bed... not that I'm complaining, mind you."
"Oh, you!" she sputtered, doing her best to tickle him in return.
"So... tell me what you want, Ami."
She struggled, but found him surprisingly strong. He draped his body over hers and kissed her, sliding his tongue into her mouth. She sighed into the kiss, and began pulling up on his shirt. Immediately, he resumed tickling her.
"Ryo," she gasped, struggling for breath.
"Tell me," he said.
"OK... OK," she said breathlessly.
"Well?"
"I... want to... ah... to make love to you," she said, looking up into his eyes.
He took a breath as his heart pounded and his arousal increased. He'd never dared truly hope for this before, but knew there could never be anyone else he would want to do it with. A smile spread across his face, and he kissed her again.
"I love you, Ami," he whispered.
"I love you," she said, sliding a hand inside his pajama pants and feeling his bottom. "But right now, my love, I want you out of your pajamas."
He grinned. "A gentleman should try to accommodate a lady wherever possible."
She giggled, grasping the waist of his pants and beginning to work them down. He slid off of her, and finished pulling the pants off. She sat up, her eyes locked on the swollen form of his penis. She marveled at its size and beauty as she ran her hand over it, feeling her warm wetness within her growing still more intense. Finally, she pulled his shirt up and off, tossing it away.
"Very nice," she sighed, looking over his naked form.
He nodded, his eyes going slowly and lovingly over her, certain he had never seen anything more lovely than she was. "Oh, Ami... my darling girl genius... you're extraordinary... So beautiful."
She smiled happily, then leaned forward and kissed him. "You're pretty incredible yourself, my love."
She continued running her hand gently over his penis, feeling it throb softly under her caress. Her insides were virtually on fire with an overwhelming sexual hunger as she lovingly stroked him there, yearning to take him inside her. He groaned softly and lay back on the bed. She crouched down alongside him, still caressing his member. A faint memory surfaced, and she leaned down and kissed his tip.
"Ami... darling," he gasped in surprise.
She studied his swollen tip closely, admiring its shape, and feeling it beckoning to her. Tracing it with her fingertip, she felt the smoothness of his flesh. She rubbed her finger over the base of the tip, bringing a gasp from him.
"Did that hurt?" she asked, concerned.
"Oh, no," he answered softly, his voice thick with passion. "I'm not sure how I'd describe it... but it didn't hurt."
She grinned, and resumed her close study of his manhood. Her fingers slid down along the shaft, and she closely examined the pattern of veins running through it. Merely reading about it was nothing compared with the beautiful reality of seeing his manhood up close and personal. She kissed his tip again, then slid her hand under his sac. Softly brushing her fingertips over his testicles, she slid behind them, stroking him behind his sac.
"Oh!" he gasped.
She looked up again, but decided he was not in discomfort. Driven on by more faint memories, she kissed his tip, then took it in her mouth. She was tentative to start with, but quickly grew comfortable with it. He groaned and his shaft quivered. She thrilled to the feel of his smooth flesh against her lips, and caressed his tip with her tongue.
He couldn't believe what she was doing to him, seeing this beautiful, naked girl he loved so much licking and sucking his penis. The warm, silky moistness of her mouth and tongue was driving him crazy. Her fingers stroked the length of his shaft, and her tongue brushed over his tip.
She pulled back for a breath, looking down at his magnificent tip, glistening with the wetness of her saliva. She was amazing herself with what she was doing, and how wonderful an experience it was. Taking him back in her mouth, she began to taste a bit of fluid on her tongue, but passion drove her on. She licked and sucked him fiercely. Her mind cautioned that stimulating him in this way could have only one result, but she continued, stroking her with a firm motion of her hand, and sucking his member.
"Darling... please," he groaned, feeling himself fast approaching the brink.
She felt his body tremble and could taste more of him. Suddenly, his body spasmed powerfully and he groaned as a surge ran the length of his shaft, and streams of warm, tart fluid burst into her mouth. Surprise welled up within her as it happened. Her mind protested what was happening, but her body, guided by memories of the past, was reflexively gulping down his flood. When he had emptied himself, she slowly sat back, breathing heavily as she fully realized what she had just done. Love swelled still more powerfully in her heart, and she came to see it as a beautiful sharing of intimacy between young lovers. A bright smile spread across her face.
"Oh, Ami," he sighed, still unable to fully believe she had really just done that.
"My love... you are absolutely gorgeous," she said, sliding up alongside him.
She kissed one of his nipples, then moved up along his sternum, planting soft kisses as she went. He slid his hands over her back. She pressed her mouth to his for a deep, wet, oxygen-draining kiss. He slid one hand down, pressing his fingers into her bottom. She sighed into the kiss, pressing herself still closer to him, thrilling to the feel of his warm, naked body against her own.
She rolled off of him, and he ran his hand over her, again admiring her naked beauty. He kissed her lips, while caressing her breast. His fingers swept up along the curve of the small mound, and brushed over her firm nipple. She sighed with pleasure. Both his eyes and his hand went very slowly over her breasts. He moved over her and pressed his lips to her nipple. Her hands swept over his back and she groaned as he suckled her. He brushed his tongue over the firm tip of her nipple, then pressed his lips back to the soft, creamy flesh of her breast.
"Oh, yes," she sighed.
He continued to suck passionately at one of her nipples, while stroking the other with his fingers. As he did so, a vague sensation of deja vu began to grow within him. His arousal and carnal hunger consumed him, leaving him unable to seriously consider this.
"Oh, Ryo! Please!" she gasped.
He kissed her nipple once more, then slid down, responding to images forming unbidden in his mind. Softly kissing the flesh of her abdomen, he moved down lower. She spread her legs open invitingly and he moved between them. He ran a finger over her pubic mound, sliding through the thin blue-black downy layer covering it. Looking closely at her nether lips, he saw them already wet as moisture dripped out of her. He brushed his finger very softly over her opening, feeling her warm, sticky moistness. His finger slid back across her opening, and he gently pressed the tip through her lips. She gasped softly with delight and a tremor ran through her. He spread her nether lips open, letting more of her love honey drip out of her. Leaning closer, he peered into her opening. He probed into her very gently with his finger.
"Oh, yes," she groaned, feeling his finger sliding along her lips.
He slid his finger up into her channel, and she gasped again, her inner muscles squeezing on him. Drawing back out of her channel, he stroked along the moist flesh until he found a small, swollen nub.
"Oh, gods!" she cried, as an intense burst of pleasure tore through her.
Surprised at the intensity of her response, he caressed her there again, letting his finger brush her jewel repeatedly. She gasped and cried as his touch swept her ever higher. He drew his finger back, hearing her moan softly with loss. Licking her honey off his finger, he found it surprisingly sweet. Another image formed in his mind, and he slid forward to softly and lovingly kiss her nether lips, gently lapping up her honey.
She gasped as she felt his tongue slide into her, even though she seemed to vaguely remember this from her past life. Her entire body was on fire with passion, and she was beyond caring about the past. All that mattered to her now was this boy she loved so desperately, and the indescribable pleasure he was giving her. His tongue brushed her jewel softly and she cried out wordlessly, a tremor sweeping through her.
He drew back for a breath, then kissed her nether lips again, and slid his tongue into her once more. His tongue resumed caressing her jewel, bringing more cries of passion from her. He thrilled to her sweetness and the pleasure she was experiencing, continuing to stroke her hyper-sensitive pleasure point. Her cries grew more frantic, before she was consumed by a powerful spasm as she soared to climax. He found more of her sweetness pouring out of her, gulping it down.
"Oh, Ryo," she sighed. "I love you so much."
He moved up over her, planting more kisses on her breasts.
"Ami, I love you," he said.
"I need you, my love," she said, her voice choked with passion. "I need you so much!"
He nodded, feeling an equally powerful need himself, then kissed her deeply and passionately. Something nagged at him as they kissed and pressed themselves together. Suddenly remembering, he started to move off of her.
"What is it?" she asked.
"Protection," he said, fumbling in the drawer of his night table. "Don't want you getting pregnant too."
She nodded, glancing over to see him pulling a condom from the drawer. He tore open the wrapper, then rolled onto his back and hurriedly slipped the latex sheath on over his erect member. She smiled happily as she looked at him, then moved astride him, sliding her hands over his chest. Bending down, she kissed him deeply, then slid back, quickly feeling his swollen tip against her nether lips. She sighed with anticipation as she rubbed herself against it, then eased herself down. His tip spread her open, and she gasped feeling her virgin channel being spread wide. She paused for a moment, letting herself relax a bit, then pushed down hard, plunging him deep into her. Her body tensed and she gasped as a sharp pain tore through her. She clenched her eyes shut and held herself still, waiting for the pain to pass. Tentatively, she slid up on his shaft, reveling in the feel of his warm mass filling her. She pushed back down, feeling an intense passion swelling within her, overwhelming the lingering pain.
"Oh, yes," she gasped, as she fell into a steady, thrusting rhythm, pumping up and down on him.
"Ami... darling," he groaned, flooded with intense pleasure as she held his manhood deep inside her warm, loving embrace. "So good."
She nodded, then leaned down to kiss him. As she sat back up, his hands took hold of her breasts, gently squeezing them in his fingers. Looking down at him, she still felt a vague sense of deja vu from her past life and an intense, overwhelming pleasure at being conjoined with him. She could still hardly believe that it was actually happening, that they were together on his bed, his manhood deep inside her joining them together as one.
He looked up, seeing her eyes aglow with purest joy. His heart warmed with his feelings for her, so incredibly happy to be making love to her. He stroked her nipple with one hand, while sliding the other down to her bottom, pressing his fingers into her flesh. Passion blazed within him as she continued to pump away on his shaft. His penis throbbed within her, but without knowing how, he found himself able to hold back from the brink.
"Oh, yes!... Oh!... Oh, gods!" she gasped.
"Oh, Ami," he groaned.
He pushed up through his hips to meet her next thrust and she cried out with joy, soaring rapidly toward the edge. She drove herself on, completely under the control of passionate hunger. One more motion, and she was consumed by the full power of orgasm.
"OH, YES!!" she cried, her body shaking as she sat astride him, beautifully impaled on his member.
He struggled to hold himself back as her inner muscles clamped down on him with the force of her climax. She took a breath and a blissful smile formed on her face. As he admired the beauty of her expression, she resumed her movements.
She moved slowly and steadily, enjoying the feel of long, slow strokes of his shaft within her, and taking him as deep as she could manage.
"Oh, Ryo," she sighed. "Oh, yes... So good!"
"Just incredible," he whispered.
She leaned down and kissed him. His hands slid over her back. He thrust up to meet her every motion, now feeling his self-control weakening. Their joining was so incredibly beautiful. He couldn't imagine not doing this with her, feeling the full, overwhelming power of their love in their every motion.
She sat up again, just as thrilled by their sharing as he was. Her entire body was on fire with raw ecstasy as they moved together, sweeping themselves ever higher into realms of pleasure.
He was gasping for breath, teetering on the brink. His body spasmed, pushing him up into her. With her next motion, his body locked up and his member swelled within her snug young channel, bringing a gasp from her. She plunged down, carrying him away to climax.
OH, RYO!!!" she cried out in purest delight, soaring to her own peak.
They gasped softly as they continued to tremble in the throes of climax. Finally, both began to go limp and she lay down over him, softly kissing his cheek.
"Ami, my darling. You're incredible," he sighed.
She smiled, then kissed him again. "I love you, Ryo... This was the most wonderful experience I've ever known."
He nodded. "Most definitely," he agreed softly.
They lay together quietly, still intimately connected. After several minutes, he carefully eased himself out of her, then moved off and removed his condom. After he had disposed of the condom, they slipped under the covers and snuggled together.
"We still need to turn off lights around the house," she said softly. "And do the laundry."
"I know," he said. "But let's just lay here for a while."
She nodded, smiling at him, and kissed his cheek. "That sounds fine to me, my love."
She rested her head on the pillow next to him and he slid his arm around her, holding her close. Snuggling together, the young lovers dozed happily.- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
About an hour later, they sat together on his bed, both still naked.
"It was strange," Ryo said. "I'd have to say I'm pretty uninformed about some of the specific acts involved in sex and foreplay, but it was like I was having visions of what to do. I know my psychic ability doesn't work that way."
"I had the same experience... and I'm probably about as uniformed as you are, my love," she said. "But I think I know what it is."
He looked at her questioningly.
"I've been recalling more memories of the Silver Millennium," she said. "It seems my past self had a lover... and he looked exactly like you."
"Me?" he asked, stunned. "You mean I lived back then too? With you?"
She nodded. "That's what it looks like... And that must be at least part of what drew us together... But it probably also means that you're meant to be here to help us."
"I don't understand," he said.
"The queen of the Moon said she sent all her people into the future to live peaceful new lives, but also arranged things so that the Sailor Senshi would be able to protect Earth if necessary, and that we would have everything we'd need to stop the Dark Kingdom," she explained.
He nodded in understanding. "So... I'm here not just because I happened to receive a nijizuishou, but to provide you with psychic insights if you need it."
She smiled. "And also because I need your love, Ryo," she said. "Being a Senshi is really pretty scary. If I didn't have you here, my love, the only way I could cope with it would be to bury myself in my books."
He grinned, and kissed her. "I see. My task in the great scheme of things is to help my darling girl genius loosen up."
She kissed him in return. "That's about it."
"It is my pleasure to assist, darling. How am I doing?"
"Oh, you're doing a great job, my love," she said, sighing happily. "If I get to make love to you like that on a regular basis, I know I'll be just fine."
He laughed. "As long as you are happy, Ami."
She leaned against him. "You make me very happy."
They sat there quietly, simply enjoying each other's company and feeling wonderfully contented.< To be continued >

NOTE: I know this is primarily an Usagi and Mamoru story, but I thought Ami and Ryo deserved some fun too. More to come.Always remember, good gentles, that a yarnspinner works from and within existing legends and stories. The characters of "Sailor Moon" belong to others. In spinning my yarns, I do not seek to infringe on their rights of ownership, but merely to join with other fans to spread the legend still further. "The moonlight carries a message of love." Enjoy.
