A Sekkushiaru Roman
featuring characters from the anime "Sailor Moon"> Chapter 34 - A Quiet Day <
Rei found herself stretched out comfortably in a large, luxurious bed in a grand, spacious room. As she shifted position, she felt a warm body alongside her, enjoying the familiar, comfortable feel of Atana sleeping next to her.
He sighed softly, still asleep, and moved closer to her, his arm slipping across the bare flesh of her chest. His strong, naked body snuggled against her, as the soft sound of his breathing lulled her back toward sleep. She lay there happily, her heart filled with love, knowing that everything was just the way it should be.
A soft breeze rustled the drapes around the large open windows, keeping the room comfortably cool for them as they slept. In spite of the darkness, she knew every detail of the room, and where everything was located. Her senses were alert for even the smallest detail out of place. But everything was quiet, and she rolled still closer to him.
Just then, a soft, very faint noise interrupted her peacefulness and she began to move, feeling him beginning to react as well.- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Rei blinked her eyes open, glancing around uncertainly for a moment, before regaining sufficient awareness to know where she was. She lay still, feeling Atana's arm still draped across her. Once more, she heard the soft noise that had interrupted her dream. He groaned and shifted position. Not wanting to wake him, Rei very carefully slipped his arm off of her and eased herself out of bed, smoothing down the t-shirt she was wearing as she moved.
As she quietly opened the bedroom door, she could hear the sound again. She moved to Kara's door, hearing the little girl crying. Rei opened the door and stepped into the room.
"Kara?" Rei called softly, seeing the girl huddled under the blanket.
"Rei?" Kara asked in reply, her voice trembling.
"I am right here," Rei said, crouching alongside the bed and pulling the blanket back. "Did you have a bad dream?"
Kara nodded. "Those bad monsters came back."
Rei gently wiped the little girl's eyes. "But your daddy will protect you. You know that," she said. She could sense Atana entering the room behind her. "And I will help him."
Kara looked up at her, then suddenly threw her arms around Rei and hugged her tightly. Though this caught Rei by surprise, she embraced Kara, knowing the girl was still scared. Atana knelt beside her, running a comforting hand over his daughter's back, while slipping his other arm over Rei's shoulders, holding them both close. Kara looked up at both of them and smiled.
"Feeling better, honey?" Atana asked Kara.
"A little," Kara said softly, still clinging tightly to Rei.
Atana leaned closer and kissed Kara's cheek. As he embraced both Kara and Rei, he felt both happier and more at peace than he had in a long time. He kissed Kara's cheek again, then with hardly any thought, brushed his lips across the flesh of Rei's cheek.
The kiss caught Rei by surprise, but she found it quite pleasant, even as she was enjoying being in his embrace. Still, she recalled her dream, and how right it felt being with him. Just then, she felt Kara rest her head against her shoulder. Atana continued to hold them both as Kara's eyes closed and she drifted back toward sleep. Finally, he released them, and Rei set Kara back down, resting the girl's head on her pillow. As they pulled the blanket up over her, Kara clutched the pillow in her hands.
Atana and Rei both stood up slowly and quietly, then made their way to the door.
"Thank you," he said softly, after he had closed Kara's door. "I really appreciate that."
"She's a sweet little girl," Rei said with a smile. "She was scared, and I wanted to help."
Atana took hold of Rei's hand as they reached to door to his bedroom. "You're an amazing girl... an amazing young woman," he said, correcting himself.
Her smile grew larger as a warmth swelled within her heart. "You're very special yourself," she said.
Even though a part of him still objected, he drew her into his arms, leaning down to softly and lightly kiss her lips.
Her breath caught as she felt his lips on her own. She looked up at him, still sensing his lingering hesitation, then stretched herself up and kissed him in return.
"I'm glad I stayed here," she said softly.
"So am I," he said, still surprised at just how right it felt to hold her in his arms. "We should go back to bed," he finally suggested.
She nodded, and he took her hand, leading her back to his room.
They slipped into bed, and he kissed her cheek once more, then slid his arm around her. She sighed as she felt him holding her that way. Her eyes drifted closed, feeling sleep creeping back up on her. He too settled back to sleep, feeling remarkably happy and at peace.- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Mamoru gently ran his hand over Usagi's back, enjoying the feel of his future wife draped over him. She sighed and began to stir.
"Good morning, Usako," he whispered.
She looked up at him and smiled. "Good morning, Mamo-chan."
"Sleep well?" he asked.
"Always when I'm with you," she sighed.
She stretched, then slid up and kissed him. He enfolded her in his arms, kissing her in return.
"I love you, my prince," she said. "More than anything."
"I love you, Usako," he replied, kissing her again. "And I am so happy to be spending the rest of my life with you."
She nodded, her smile growing even brighter. "I'm very happy about that too... and that I'm carrying our child, Mamo-chan." She embraced him tightly, sighing happily.
He slid a hand along the bare flesh of her back as her long golden hair spread out over them both. Just holding her close this way was one of the greatest pleasures he had ever known. He hoped that very soon now she would be living with him full-time in what was now indisputably home for both of them, and then he would never again have to spend a night without this woman he loved so much there beside him.- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Rei awoke, feeling Atana beside her. Through the window she could see the sun shining outside. She glanced at the clock, surprised at how late she had slept, being used to awaking at dawn. Atana continued to sleep, and she remained still. She knew he had had his own bad dream during the night, and had then woken up when Kara had her bad dream. As he lay there next to her, she wanted to let him sleep.
She looked at his face, so peaceful in sleep, and felt the warmth of his body next to her. Again, she realized how familiar this was, sensing that this had been a regular occurrence for her in her past life. She closed her eyes, lying there peacefully, and letting the feelings of happy contentment sweep over her.
Just then, a faint creaking noise interrupted her. As her eyes opened, she heard a soft giggle, and then a small body crashed on top of her, before rolling across and on to Atana. He gasped for breath as his eyes flew open.
"Daddy!" Kara cried happily, throwing her arms around him.
"Kara," he gasped breathlessly.
The little girl then rolled between them, giving Rei a hug. "Good morning, Rei," she said, still giggling happily. She turned back to Atana. "I love you, Daddy."
Rei looked at Kara, feeling waves of confusion. She knew this was an extremely awkward situation, and that it would have been better for them to have gotten up before Kara did. At the same time, however, a part of her was enjoying this as Kara happily squirmed between them.
"I love you, honey," Atana said to Kara. His expression then grew stern. "But what have I told you about coming in to my room when the door is closed?"
Kara looked at him, her grin fading and her gaze falling away. "You said I had to knock, then wait for you to say I could come in," she said softly.
Atana nodded. "That's right, Kara... I'm very disappointed. Rei is our guest, and you've been very rude to her."
Kara looked crestfallen. "I'm sorry," she said, on the verge of tears.
Rei wanted to tell Kara it was OK, but she knew it was not her place, and she could understand Atana's position as well. He was still entitled to at least some degree of privacy, and to set basic rules for his daughter.
"You need to apologize to Rei," Atana told Kara.
The girl turned to face Rei. "I'm sorry, Rei," Kara said.
Rei nodded and give Kara a hug. "I know you are excited," Rei said softly, considering her words carefully. "But you still have to follow your daddy's rules."
Kara took a breath, fighting back tears as she felt the disappointment of both her father and Rei, then nodded.
Atana slipped an arm around his daughter, giving her a gentle hug. Rei slid closer and did the same.
Kara's smile returned as she sat there between the two of them.
Rei could sense the girl's happiness, and was happy herself, realizing just how attached she had become to both of them.- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Ami and Ryo sat together in her room, each wearing just a bathrobe. Ryo sat at her computer, typing a report, while Ami sorted through their notes and books. He was now spending more time at Ami's home than at his own, as they were studying together just about every night. His parents had expressed some concerns, but they were pleased to see he was finally making close friends after having been such a loner for so long. For his part, he was greatly enjoying being with Ami as much as possible. Ami's mother continued to urge them to be cautious, but otherwise raised no objections to their relationship.
There was a soft tap at Ami's door.
"Ami?" Dr. Mizonu called.
"Yes, Mom," Ami answered.
Dr. Mizuno edged the door open and leaned into the room. "I'm leaving for the hospital, Ami. I don't expect to be home for dinner."
"OK, Mom," Ami said. "I'll see you later."
"I left a shopping list and some money in the kitchen. If you get a chance..."
"We'll take care of it," Ami said.
"Thanks," Dr. Mizuno said. "Have a nice day, both of you."
Ryo nodded. "I'm sure we will. Thank you, Mizuno-san."
Ami's mother nodded and started to say something, but stopped herself. "Goodbye, Ami. Ryo."
"Bye, Mom," Ami said. "I love you."
"I love you, dear," Dr. Mizuno said, before pulling the door closed and walking toward the stairs.
"It's nice that she's been so accepting of us," Ryo said. "I would have to doubt most mothers would be so accepting."
Ami nodded. "Yes. I was a bit surprised myself... but Mom said she had a pretty intense relationship when she was my age."
"Your father?" Ryo asked.
"Oh, no," Ami replied, wrinkling her nose in distaste. "Definitely not."
Ryo looked at her, not understanding her response. He saved their work, and rose from the chair. "What did happen to your father?" he asked, sitting down on the bed beside her. "I assume they divorced."
Ami shook her head. She reached down and retrieved a piece of paper, handing it to him.
He glanced at it. "Your mother's professional bio?" He started to read it. " 'Mizuno Noriko. Physician and surgeon. Specialty: pediatric medicine. Currently pediatric and emergency surgeon, Juuban District Hospital, Minato-ku, Toyko. Internship: Osaka University Hospital. Medical degree, with honors, from Osaka University School of Medicine. Dr. Mizuno Noriko comes from a family of distinguished physicians, being the daughter of Dr. Mizuno Yukio, dean of Kansai University Medical School and former chief surgeon of Osaka facility, Kansai University Medical Centers'." He looked at the biography in confusion, reading it again. "I don't understand," he finally said. "I mean, I can see your mother might have decided to keep her own family name for professional reasons... but how is it you have her name? Why not your father's?"
Ami sighed and shook her head again. "Mom never married him," she said softly. "And I'm pretty sure she never even told him she was pregnant... he certainly never knew me."
"What do you mean?" he asked, leaning closer to her. Suddenly his eyes went wide. "Did your mother get pregnant by accident? Is that why she's always so concerned that we're being cautious?"
Ami nodded. "Yes. She was just sixteen when she had me. She's really smart, and was always well ahead of her classmates. Grandfather sent her to a private school, and she finished early. The school was connected with Osaka University, and she had already started taking some courses there."
"So that's why she went to Osaka University instead of Kansai."
"That's right," Ami said. "She'd met this guy, one of the university students, that fall when she started taking classes there. They became involved, and given that I was born in September, sometime in December... Anyway, in spite of her precautions, she wound up pregnant. She doesn't like to talk about it, but from what I've been able to piece together, he dumped her after the holiday break, and she must have found out she was pregnant soon afterward. I think she had planned to tell him, but found he was already going out with another girl. Grandfather said he had initially come across as a free-spirit, but eventually showed himself as a party-animal with a passion for alcohol and women. In any case, he wanted nothing more to do with Mom, and displayed quite a temper. Mom walked away from him in disgust, and I suspect she never got to tell him. She apparently made up her mind to have me on her own, which is what she did."
"What happened to your... your father?" Ryo asked.
"He was killed in a car accident," she answered. "He was drunk and took three other students on a high-speed joyride along the coast. They all died when the car smashed head-on into a truck. That was several months before I was even born."
Ryo shook his head, placing his hand gently over hers. "Did your mother have any difficulties? I mean, it must have been tough being a single mother and going through university and medical school."
Ami nodded. "Well, she took a year or so off from her studies, and then she stayed with my grandparents in Osaka until she completed her internship. Grandfather is quite well off financially, and he set aside a trust fund to assure that Mom wouldn't have to worry about money."
"Why did she move to Tokyo?"
"She wanted to make a start on her own, where she wouldn't automatically be seen as Mizuno Yukio's daughter... and Juuban Hospital was willing to let her actually practice medicine. Most of the hospitals she considered didn't want to let her really do anything, thinking she was too young and inexperienced."
"And she doesn't want to see you get into the same situation," he said, nodding with understanding.
"Yes," she said. "I don't intend to, but neither did she."
He kissed her softly. "We're both being careful, darling. And you have a measure of protection your mother didn't have."
"I know," she said. "And I know that if it did happen, we'd face it together."
"Of course," he said, without hesitation. "I know we're meant to be together."
"That we are, my love," she said with a smile.
He moved up alongside her and kissed her, then took her in his arms.
She sighed happily, snuggling closer to him and resting her head on his shoulder. "I love you," she whispered.
"I love you, Ami," he said softly.- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Minako stepped out of the shower and reached for a towel. She wrapped her long blond hair up in the towel, then picked up another and began drying herself off. Still at Geoff's apartment, she was enjoying spending the weekend with him. So far neither had made any serious effort to move their relationship beyond its current, generally platonic level, but she still took great pleasure in his company.
She wrapped herself in a towel, then retrieved a hair dryer, beginning the long task of drying her hair. With careful effort, she brushed out the long strands. Finally completing the task, she put her red bow back in her hair, then reached for the door.
Minako emerged from the bathroom, meeting Geoff who was walking back to the bedroom.
He paused, taking in the sight of her standing there in just a towel. His body immediately responded, ignoring all his efforts not to react to the vision of loveliness and female beauty in front of him. He took a step back, again reminding himself that she was only fourteen and that he was determined to be a gentleman.
"Uhm... How was your shower?" he asked.
"Just fine, thanks," she said.
He nodded, then turned back toward the living room. "I'll, uh, I'll leave you to change," he said.
She walked into the bedroom, closing the door. Reaching into her bag, she withdrew a pair of shorts and short-sleeved blouse, setting them on the bed. She pulled on a pair of panties, then slipped on a bra. With the bra clasp fastened, she picked up her blouse and put it on, then stepped into her shorts. She opened the door and returned to the living room.
"You look very nice," Geoff said.
She smiled. "Thank you." She sat down on the couch next to him, tucking her legs back underneath herself.
He rose to his feet. "I should get dressed," he said softly.
"OK," she acknowledged.
He stopped, then looked back at her. "Would you like to go to Yokohama for the day?" he asked.
"Yokohama? Sure. I guess so," she said. "What did you have in mind?"
"Well, I was thinking of having lunch in Yokohama's Chinatown," he said. "I've heard it's not to be missed, but I've never really had the chance to go down and check it out."
"Yes, it really has some great restaurants," she said. "I've been to a few of them."
"Great. You can be my guide," he said with a grin.
"Sounds like fun," she agreed. "Are we going just for lunch?"
"No," he said. "I'm sure we can find more to do than just eat."
"I wouldn't doubt it," she agreed, her grin matching his own.- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
There was a knock at Makoto's door, and she hurried to open it, finding Shinozaki standing there with his father. Shinozaki was carrying a duffle bag.
"Hi, Shinozaki. Asagiri-san," she greeted them.
"Hi, Mako-chan," Shinozaki said, with a smile, as he stepped inside and removed his shoes.
"Hello, Makoto-chan," Mr. Asagiri said. "It was very nice of you to offer Shinozaki a place to stay while we're away."
"It's not a problem," she said. "We haven't had a good extended get-together in quite a while. I've been looking forward to it."
Shinozaki nodded. "And she's laid down the law: I have to stay out of her kitchen."
"Damn straight!" she said. She then broke into laughter, taking the edge off her statement. "I'm sure we'll have a great time."
Mr. Asagiri nodded. "Well, thanks again. Shinozaki knows how to reach us in Hokkaido if necessary. Have a nice time."
"We will, Dad. Thanks," Shinozaki said.
"Have a nice trip, Asagiri-san," Makoto said.
"I'm sure we will," he said, stepping back out the door. "Good bye."
"Bye, Dad," Shinozaki called.
Makoto closed the door, and Shinozaki picked up his bag, carrying it into her spare room.
"You'll find clean sheets in the closet," she said, following him. "And the bed is already made up."
He set down his bag next to the low bed. "Thanks, Mako-chan... You didn't really have to go to all that trouble. I can certainly handle making a bed."
"I know," she said. "I just thought I'd have everything ready for you. I've been looking forward to this."
"Really?"
She nodded. "I've always enjoyed your company."
He smiled. "And I enjoy yours, Mako-chan."
She stood in the doorway, watching him unpack. Dreams of her past life had continued to haunt her, showing her that they had indeed been lovers in the past. As she stood there, she found herself looking at her long-time friend in a new light. "Uhm, I'm going to put together some lunch," she said, shaking her head. "I'll be in the kitchen."
"OK," he said.
Looking up, Shinozaki saw her walking away, noticing the way her slacks clung to her figure. His dreams of the past were also continuing. She had suggested the possibility that they had been friends in her past life as well, but the dreams were suggesting they were much more. The more he considered that possibility, the less outlandish it seemed. He had to admit that she was very beautiful, and that he had never been closer to anyone else his own age. He wasn't sure yet if she felt the same, and he did not want to jeopardize their friendship.- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Mamoru and Usagi emerged from the dining room at the marina, having enjoyed a quiet lunch together. She had her arm intertwined with his as they walked.
"That was lovely, Mamo-chan," she said.
He gazed into her eyes and smiled. "But not as lovely as you, my love."
"Oh, Mamo-chan," she sighed. "You make me so happy."
He nodded and paused, drawing her into his arms and kissing her. "That's part of my job, Usako... And you make me happier than I've ever been."
She grinned. "I'm glad, my prince."
He kissed her again, and they resumed walking out along the pier. She slid her hand down over his back, then gently squeezed his bottom.
"Usako," he protested softly, looking over at her.
She grinned, pressing her fingers into him again. "Yes, Mamo-chan?"
"Enjoying yourself?"
"Oh, most definitely," she said with a nod, leaving her hand in place.
He smiled, then turned and placed his hand on her abdomen, sliding it up onto her breast.
"Mamo-chan! We're out in public," she exclaimed.
"Oh, I see... It's OK for you, but not for me, is that it?"
"Well..." She giggled softly, then pressed herself against him, kissing him. "I can't help it if the man I'm going to marry is just so incredibly sexy... and absolutely drop-dead gorgeous."
He embraced her and kissed her in return. "And you are just the most beautiful woman, my love, and very sexy yourself."
She glanced around, feeling a familiar arousal beginning to swell within her. "Maybe we need to move to someplace more private."
"I was thinking exactly the same thing," he said, kissing her again.
Hand in hand, they moved along the pier at a fast walk. They quickly reached his yacht and climbed aboard. He unlocked the cabin door and led her down into the main cabin.
"It's been a while since we've been here," she said, smiling with anticipation.
"Yes," he agreed. "But this will always be a special place for us."
She nodded. "Very special."
They removed their shoes, and he took her back in his arms. Leaning down, he gently pressed his lips to hers. Her arms slid up along his back and she pressed her body closer to his. He slid his tongue across her lips and deep into her mouth. Their link deepened, allowing feelings of love and passion to flow between them.
"Oh, Mamo-chan," she sighed.
"Usako," he whispered.
He kissed her again, and their tongues danced together slowly and sensuously. His hands slid over her back, holding her close.
She sighed with delight as they separated. His hands ran along the waist of her skirt, unfastening it and sliding it down, letting it drop in a pool of fabric around her feet. He then began unbuttoning her blouse. She grinned as he slipped it back off her shoulders, eagerly anticipating the feel of her naked body pressing against the bare flesh of her future husband. His hands next found the clasp of her bra, gently slipping it open. He stepped back, pulling her bra off and tossing it aside, leaving her clad only in her panties. His eyes swept over her small young breasts, which still took his breath away, leaving him certain they were utter perfection. She immediately stepped forward and began opening his shirt, running the palms of her hands over his strong chest as she slid it off.
He leaned down and kissed her, even as he felt her hands reaching for the waist of his pants, unfastening his belt, then opening the pants. Desire swelled ever more powerfully within him, as it always did for this exquisitely beautiful young woman who was his future wife.
She pulled down his pants, her eyes immediately focusing on the swollen form of his aroused manhood within his boxers. He stepped out of his pants, and she slipped off his socks. Sliding her hands up along his legs, she could see his shaft longing for release from its confinement. She took hold of his boxers and pulled them down. The tip of his member emerged, beckoning to her. Her insides ran hot and wet with anticipation of his beautiful warm mass filling up her womanhood so magnificently yet again.
"Mamo-chan," she whispered, her voice thick with passion.
She gently ran the palm of her hand along the full length of his shaft, crafted by the fates for her alone, admiring the smooth feel of his warm flesh, stretched taut around his swollen mass.
He groaned softly, watching her run her hand over his member. She pushed him back toward the couch and he sat down. As he watched, she knelt between his legs and softly and lovingly kissed his tip. Her hand caressed his shaft, while she brushed his tip with her tongue, licking it slowly and repeatedly. Bursts of pleasure tore through him as her tongue rasped across the base of his tip.
"Usako," he groaned.
She grinned, then leaned down to very slowly lick the full length of shaft, brushing his flesh with short, gentle strokes of her tongue. His body trembled and he groaned softly, running his hands over her back. She moved back up to his tip, feeling him respond as she repeatedly caressed the base of his tip with her tongue. Her own body was flushed with powerful desire for the man she loved, even as she could feel his own desire through their link. A familiar energy swelled within her, leaving her certain her crescent moon was again glowing on her forehead. Her attention, however, was entirely focused on her future husband's throbbing manhood as she held it in her hand and continued to lick it passionately.
He looked down at her as her tongue swept over him with its warm, silky moistness. Her golden crescent moon only made her even lovelier than she already was. Suddenly, she popped his tip in her mouth, sucking it firmly while her lips pressed against the base of his tip. He closed his eyes and rolled his head back, gasping as waves of intense pleasure burst through him. Her hand still stroked his shaft, sweeping him steadily higher. She pulled back with a soft, distinct sucking sound, then licked his tip like a lollipop. He groaned as she worked her completely irresistible magic on him, overjoyed beyond all words to have the love of such an incredible, beautiful young woman.
She felt his joy, making her own even stronger at giving such pleasure to the man she loved. Her tongue slowly brushed around his tip, and she could taste some of his fluid. Filled with love and happiness, she took his tip back in her mouth, while sliding her hand down to gently cradle his sac. He gasped as her fingers stroked the sensitive spot behind the sac and his entire body shook. Pressing her lips tightly around his hugely engorged tip, she sucked at it fiercely. Her fingers continued to softly stroke behind his sac as she could tell he was on the brink.
"Usako!" he gasped, a powerful spasm sweeping uncontrollably through him.
She held him tightly with her lips as his penis throbbed and pulsed wildly, pouring a powerful surge of his warm, tart fluid into her mouth and down her throat. Eagerly, she gulped down every last bit of it. Once, the very idea of doing this would have disgusted her, but now it thrilled her to be sharing such intimacy with the man who was her lover and soul-mate of two lifetimes. She paused for a breath, still holding his tip in her mouth, then softly resumed licking and sucking, cleaning away the lingering residue.
"Oh, my love," he sighed, sweeping a hand across her back and through the long golden cape of her hair as it spread out across her.
"I love you, Mamo-chan," she whispered, finally pulling away from his shaft.
His fingers found the hair clip at the back of her head, unfastening it and tossing it away, leaving her hair completely free as it spread over her.
She slid up over his chest, pausing to kiss his nipples, playfully sucking at them. His hands slid down her back and inside her panties. She felt his fingers press into the soft flesh of her bottom, then begin to slide her panties down, letting them drop to her knees. As she stood up, she stepped out of the small scrap of thin fabric, already soaked with her own wetness.
He brought his hands up to her breasts, softly caressing them as he admired their well-rounded form, the dark, aroused nipples, and the firm feel of them under his fingers. She smiled down at him, her crescent moon glowing brightly as passion and love shone in her eyes. His fingers brushed over her nipples, bringing a soft groan from her. She leaned down, brushing her lips over his. He moved one hand to the back of her head as her tongue slid into his mouth, dancing slowly and passionately with his.
She sighed happily as they continued to kiss. One of his hands slid down along her side, and then across her abdomen. She felt his hand going lower, brushing through the thin covering of golden down on her pubic mound. A shiver of delight ran through her as his finger brushed across her nether lips, then gently slid through them. She clenched her eyes shut and groaned as his finger found her swollen jewel, flooding her with an intense burst of carnal pleasure.
He felt her response as his finger slid inside her, quickly being coated with her warm moistness. With a light, gentle touch, he stroked his finger along her nether lips, caressing her soft folds, and brushing her jewel with each stroke. She gasped softly and her body shook, leaning forward against him as her legs became weak. He took a breath, then kissed her again, sliding his tongue deep into her mouth.
She moaned into the kiss as his finger continued maddeningly to probe her opening, driving her wild with desire. His soft, loving caress was setting her on fire, bringing her insides to full boil, and sweeping her ever higher into realms of intense sexual pleasure. As she approached her peak, he suddenly changed his pattern, carefully avoiding her hyper-sensitive pleasure point. She gasped for breath and cried out in frustration, rubbing her body against his as she sought release.
Recognizing what she was doing, he swept his finger along the outer edge of her lips, staying clear of where she wanted him. Finally, he kissed her deeply, and slid his finger through her opening, firmly stroking her jewel. She cried out with delight, squirming wildly as his finger probed into her. He then reached back, sliding his finger deeper into her channel.
She gasped as he probed deeper into her, her body shaking uncontrollably. Her legs spread wider and she pressed more of her weight against him. His finger plunged deep into her channel, sending fresh bursts of intense pleasure sweeping through her.
"Oh, gods!... Mamo-chan!" she cried.
He kissed her cheek, and swept his finger back over her jewel. His hand was now pinned between her body and his, restricting his movements somewhat. She shook and cried out again as he returned his attentions to her swollen pleasure point.
She gasped for breath, soaring ever higher. Intense waves of raw pleasure surged through her. A sharp spasm shook her as his finger rasped over her jewel again and again. Another spasm followed, her head rolled back, and she cried out wordlessly, swept away by irresistible climax. He withdrew his hand, and she went limp, her body draped over his as she breathed heavily. His arms enfolded her as she lay there.
"I love you, Usako," he whispered.
"Oh, Mamo-chan," she sighed. "I love you so much."
After a few moments, she started to move. He rose to his feet, suddenly scooping her up in his arms.
"Mamo-chan!" she exclaimed, throwing her arms around his neck and giggling happily.
He grinned at her, carrying her back to their cabin, the one where they had first consummated their love. Setting her down on her feet, he then turned down the large bed. He pulled her back into his arms and kissed her deeply and passionately.
She smiled up at him, her crescent moon still glowing brightly.
"My beautiful princess," he sighed, holding her naked young body against his own.
Before she could respond, he kissed her again, then picked her up in his arms, laying her down on their bed. She sighed with delight, and spread her legs open invitingly.
He leaned over her, kissing her exquisite breasts, and softly running his tongue over her nipples.
"Oh, yes," she groaned.
He circled her erect nipple with his tongue, then seized it in his lips, suckling it passionately. She moaned softly and ran her hands through his hair.
"Mamo-chan... Please!" she gasped.
He planted one more soft, loving kiss over her nipple, then licked the beautifully smooth flesh of her breast. With gentle strokes of his tongue, he licked his way down off her young breast and across her abdomen. He circled her navel, and she gasped softly as he placed a soft kiss on her flesh. Continuing downward, he licked his way to the top edge of her pubic mound, where he brushed his lips across its thin downy covering.
"Oh, my prince," she groaned, her entire body yearning desperately to take him deep inside her.
"My princess," he sighed.
The aroma of her arousal filled his senses completely, fueling the fire of his own passion still hotter. He kissed the inside of her thigh, then gently ran his tongue along her nether lips, again tasting her incredible sweetness. She sighed softly as he continued to lap up her sweetness. Leaning still closer, he lovingly kissed her nether lips, then slid his tongue into her.
"Oh, Mamo-chan!" she cried.
She could feel his tongue probing into her, caressing the insides of her channel. He then brushed across her jewel and she gasped with delight, a tremor of raw passion sweeping through her. Her fingers ran through his hair, and she tried to press him still deeper into her. His tongue swept along the insides of her nether lips, filling her with still more pleasure. Suddenly, his mouth pressed still more firmly over her opening and her legs spread wider to receive him. His tongue held her lips open, and he began to suck, drinking her in.
"Oh, yes! Yes!" she cried.
He thrilled to the taste of her sweetness, while sweeping his tongue back over her jewel, bringing another gasp of pleasure from her. With steady, careful motions, he continued to lick her jewel, wanting to give as much pleasure as possible to this young woman he loved more than anything. As she gasped and cried, he could sense her joy through their link. He sucked at her again, then returned his attention to her jewel.
She cried out, her body shaking. Her nerves were on fire as he licked her swollen pleasure point again and again.
"Oh, yes!... Oh, gods!... Yes!... MAMO-CHAAANNN!!" she cried, soaring to magnificent orgasm.
He gulped down the flood of her sweetness that poured out of her, pausing to savor her taste. Finally, he took a breath, then carefully licked her clean.
"Oh, Mamo-chan," she gasped. "Mamo-chan, please!... I need you... I need you now!"
He kissed her nether lips once more, then moved slowly and steadily up over her, pausing to plant a soft, loving kiss on each of her nipples. Finally, he pressed his mouth to hers and she enfolded him in her arms.
"I need you, my love," he said softly, then kissed her again.
He shifted position, bringing the tip of his manhood to her opening. With a gentle motion, he slid his tip just inside her lips.
She sighed with purest delight as his mass began to spread her open. He held himself in position there. She wrapped her legs around his thighs and pulled on him, yearning to take him deeper. Their lips came together, and then he pushed forward. She groaned as his beautiful, exquisite manhood plunged slowly, steadily into her, spreading her channel so incredibly wide with his warm, firm mass. In just a moment, he slid deep inside her, filling her up so perfectly, just as the fates had intended.
He kissed her, thrilling again to the feel of his penis held deep within her warm, moist, loving embrace. This was a sensation he could never tire of, being physically conjoined with this young woman he was going to marry and who carried their child in her womb, even as their souls were already joined as one.
She clung to him tightly, feeling him starting to move within her with slow, firm, deep strokes, plunging his full length and thickness deep insider her, flooding her with overwhelming pleasure.
"Oh, yes!" she gasped.
He looked deep into her large blue eyes, seeing them aglow with love and passion. His lips brushed hers repeatedly as he continued his slow, steady motions within her.
"Usako," he whispered.
He shifted position slightly for their next motion, his thrust pushing her down into the mattress. Her head rolled back and she cried out.
She pulled on him tightly as he rocked back. In only a moment, he was driving forward again, pushing her down as he moved. As he stroked into her, overwhelming pleasure surged through her, carrying her away to climax.
"OOOHHHH, YES!!!" she cried.
He sighed with joy at her pleasure, sensing it through their link. She pulled up on his body, her hands pressing into his bottom as he moved, driving his member deep into her yet again with a slow, firm pace. As he moved, he looked into her face, still struck by how incredibly beautiful she was, and just how much he was looking forward to her becoming his wife. He leaned down again and kissed her.
"Usako... I love you... so much," he sighed.
She smiled. "I love you... Mamo-chan," she gasped breathlessly.
She groaned as they continued to move together, just as happy as he was to be made one with him. Looking up at him, she knew with absolute certainty she wanted to spend the rest of her life with him, and was thrilled to be making a family with him. His throbbing manhood plunged into her again, flooding her with waves of ecstasy.
"Oh, yes!" she gasped.
He kissed her once more, while still thrusting forward with powerful strokes. His member throbbed within her warm, snug embrace as they moved together.
His motions were again sweeping her toward her peak as he thrust in and out, again and again. She gasped and cried with purest delight, before being consumed by another powerful climax.
He pushed himself on, feeling his own control slipping away. Faster and harder he thrust into her, his shaft throbbing and pulsing wildly within the snug embrace of her channel, made still tighter by her two orgasms. Each stroke past her tightly constricted inner muscles sent powerful sensations rushing through him.
"Mamo-chan," she cried softly and breathlessly.
Her body was on fire as he plunged into her yet again, deeply and powerfully. She cried out and her body shook uncontrollably. Her hands slid up over his back. He continued to move, driving in and out, still faster, in and out, still harder, in and out, thrusting his incredible shaft into her, flooding her with overwhelming joy as together they gave such beautiful physical expression to their love.
Their lips came together. Spasms were beginning to build within his body as they moved together. With a tremendous force of effort he continued to thrust forward, knowing she was once more on the brink. He groaned as his madly pulsing shaft swelled still larger against the constraint of her snug channel.
She felt him spreading her still wider, and his penis sinking still deeper into her. His body trembled above her as he rocked back then plunged forward once more.
"MAMO-CHAAAANNNN!!!" she cried out in purest ecstasy as she was consumed by the full, overwhelming power of orgasm, only vaguely aware of his seed streaming irresistibly into her.
"Usako," he groaned, still in the throes of climax as he continued to empty himself into this young woman he loved so very much.
Finally, they both began to go limp, and he settled himself over her. She sighed happily, feeling his warmth spreading within her as his body covered her. Her legs remained wrapped around his, and she let her hands rest gently on his bottom. Their link had deepened to a primal level, and thoughts of purest love and happiness flowed easily between them. They both sighed as they lay together, still intimately connected.
Nearly ten minutes had passed before they began to stir. He raised himself up off of her, and began to gently slip back. She sighed softly as she felt his penis drawing out of her, her inner muscles still clinging to him. After pulling out, he rolled off of her and she immediately snuggled against him.
"I love you, Mamo-chan," she sighed. "More than anything."
"I love you, Usako," he whispered.
She kissed him softly. "I'm so happy to be with you... and to be spending the rest of my life with you, my prince."
He nodded and kissed her in return. "You make me happy, my love. And it's so nice to know that I now have a family of my own."
She grinned. "Yes. Two of us," she said with a giggle. "And I know you will make a wonderful father."
"Just as you will make a wonderful mother," he said, embracing her.
"I want to be your wife, Mamo-chan, and to raise our child together," she sighed.
"That's just what I want, more than anything, my love," he said softly, holding her in his arms. "And I know we're going to be together."
She rested her head on his chest, flush with happiness as she lay there with him.- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Geoff and Minako walked along the street, having just left a small restaurant in Yokohama's Chinatown.
"That really was good," he said again. "Thanks for suggesting it."
Minako nodded. "I'm glad I could still find it. My father took me there once, but it's been a few years."
As they walked, they passed a curio shop. He stopped, looking in the window at a carved Chinese dragon.
"That's really something," he said.
"You like dragons?" she asked.
"It's been something of a hobby of mine," he said with a nod. "I have a few different dragon figures, but most I left with my parents in New Zealand."
"Do you want to take a closer look at this one?"
He shook his head. "It's hand carved. I'm sure it costs more than I can afford."
They walked slowly along the street, looking in store windows as they went.
"So, what brought you here before?" he asked her. "One of your... promotional appearances?"
She smiled. "Well, actually I was here once for that," she said. "I made an appearance when the movie was coming to the cinema complex a few blocks from here... But before we ever went to England, my father used to come down here fairly often, and he took me with him a few times."
He nodded as they continued to walk. "Did you like it in England?" he finally asked.
She thought back over all that had happened to her there. "I guess so," she said. "There were certainly a number of good things about it... but it's also nice being home. I've made some really incredible friends since I've been back."
"That's always nice," he said.
"What brought you to Japan?" she asked.
"My study program," he answered. "After I finished school, I wanted to go abroad to university. I considered universities in the United States and Canada, but I thought I'd gain more from studying in a non-English-speaking country."
"Are you liking it?"
"Yes. Very much. I've also met some great people...," he said, glancing over at her. "And one in particular."
She smiled happily. "That's nice to know."- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
About an hour later, Minako and Geoff walked through a mall. They turned a corner, and Minako looked up, stifling a gasp as she found herself staring at the five Sailor Senshi, or rather, mannequins in a display window dressed to look like them. Looking more closely, she saw numerous flaws in the imitation costumes, but mostly in minor details, such as the different earrings each of them actually wore, the nature of their chokers, and the apparent assumption of those who costumed the mannequins that all the Senshi wore the same style boots.
Geoff stopped next to her, looking at the display. "Looks like they're trying to cash in on the Sailor Senshi," he said.
She nodded. "Yes. I guess so."
"But they don't seem to have yours here," he said.
She nodded again, struggling to suppress any overt reaction.
He continued to look at the mannequins. "You know, you could probably stand in for this Sailor Venus as well."
She stiffened. "Wh... What do you mean?"
"Well, just look at her," he said. "Maybe they just redressed a Sailor V mannequin, but with the blond hair and that red bow..."
"Oh... I, I guess I see what you mean," she said softly.
He led her into the store, which sold toys and costumes. Boxes of dolls patterned after the Sailor Senshi were stacked on a display table. Off to one side were sets of children's costumes, fashioned out of a leotard with a skirt and sailor collar added to it, and with relatively generic boots and gloves. The skirts were proportionally longer than those worn by the Senshi, and the bows on the chest were larger, each with the respective Sailor's name emblazoned on it. The Senshi chokers and tiaras were completely omitted. Minako looked at these and shook her head. Several children were picking eagerly through the costumes, with two arguing over who got to be Sailor Moon.
"It seems the children like them," Geoff said.
"Well, I guess I can't complain too much about that... uhm, especially since I helped sell Sailor V merchandise," she said softly. "But this stuff just seems so... cheap."
He nodded. "But I doubt the real Sailor Senshi are in a position to do much about it... I mean, superheros usually try to keep their real identities secret, don't they?"
"I guess so," she agreed. "That was a main reason I gave up my promotional appearances, so I wouldn't be mistaken for the real thing."
He glanced at his watch. "We should get going. If we linger too much longer, we'll miss our train back to Tokyo."
She nodded and they walked back out of the store.
"I've enjoyed this," she said, as they walked out of the mall.
"So have I," he said. "I enjoy your company."
She smiled up at him, only gradually beginning to notice that at some point as they had been walking, she had slipped her hand into his.< To be continued >

NOTE: I stated at the top of the first chapter that I was making some changes from the original first season storyline. Although I don't recall it ever being stated in either anime or manga, the generally accepted background on Ami is that her parents divorced several years prior to the events of the anime first season. I've chosen to depart from that convention because I don't think it works as well for where my story is going. More to come.Hopeless Romantic and I now have a message group to notify our readers when we post new stories/chapters. Those who are interested can sign up at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/strands_of_moonlight/ .
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.
