AN: Dedicated to both butterflyV and HimeofAbion for reviewing to "Red Heat"
Summary: Sequel the Red Heat but can be read apart. Minako is sick of waiting for Malachite so she takes it upon herself melt the ice around his heart.
Golden Love
Rei was in love. The already perfect Hino Rei was in love and I wasn't. No... Aino Minako wasn't in love because the love of my life was a man devoid of emotion. Actually he does have emotions but he is like ice. Cold sleek ice but you see, I can melt him.
That is if he ever decided to knock on my door.
Malachite simply sits in his car at night-when he thinks I'm asleep-and watches the widow to my bedroom. Sometimes he becomes daring and leaves his safe area of his car to walk around the house. Mom and Dad are never here so I guess he is lucky. A month ago the generals have come back and a week ago Rei has been with Jadeite. It's ten o'clock P.M. Malachite drives up to the house right on time. My lights are out and I softly walk downstairs. I pull on my shoes and grab both my cell phone and bag.
The plan is in action.
I call Makoto who decided to help me with my plan. I walk outside and I see Malachite stiffen in his car. I ignore him as planned and talk to Mako.
"I think I am going to take him up on his offer you know? He is gorgeous after all and how can I resist? Besides as the goddess of love and beauty why shouldn't I have a guy?" I know he can hear me. I want to glance at him and see his expression but that might be risking it. He has followed me to the bus stop.
"Actually I'm going to meet him now." I hear Makoto giggle on the other line.
"I bet he is pissed." Makoto whispers although she doesn't have to.
"I hope so Mako." I hear her giggle again and I can't help myself from joining in.
"I'll talk to you later okay?"
"Sure don't forget to call me and tell me what happened." I smile.
"I'll tell you everything." I hang up and go along with step two of my plan. I hop on the bus on the way to Ami's house -- he doesn't know where Ami lives-although Malachite thinks I'm on the way to some pretty boy lover's house. He should know better. As soon as I sit down he comes and sits right next to me.
"What are you doing Venus?" I cross my legs and tug at my tight black dress. It ends mid-thigh and has no shoulders. It's plain but the thin pale yellow jacket gives it flare along with the ankle high-heeled boots.
Malachite always loved classy yet sexy.
"Are you following me?" He turned his head away from me. He was busted but refused to let it show.
"It's late you should be at home."
"And you should be parked outside my bedroom window." I got up and waited at the back door for my stop. There wasn't much people on the bus and most of them sat in the front. I grab the polls on the sides of the door for balance.
Malachite is behind me. He leans his mouth near my ear to speak. I shiver.
"You are not leaving this bus to see an idiot boy." I turn around sharply and look into his eyes. A gray blue. I love his eyes.
"I can see whoever I want." He looks at me and disregards my words for a joke. He mocks me and raises an eyebrow. He. Pisses. Me. Off.
"You will not and you cannot see whoever you want." I go to slap the hell out of him but he grabs my hand and then the bus jerks and I fall into him.
Why didn't I see that coming?
He takes the chance to once again be daring and wrap both his arms around me.
"Venus." I blink up at him.
"Minako...they call me Minako now." He nods but I don't think he cares. He will call me whatever he pleases.
I love this man.
"Malachite...I don't want to do this. This waiting game. Do you still love me? Have you ever loved me? I refuse to put my life on hold. I am a Senshi and tomorrow isn't always granted. You know this don't you...after all you were taken away from me just the day after you pronounced me as yours." I keep my eyes cast to the floor. He doesn't say a thing to me. Not a damn thing and I don't care.
This is my stop. I get off now. I leave him behind.
I don't even say good-bye to him because I'm depressed. I simply walk off the bus and take out my spare keys to Ami's house. We all have each other's key just in case something happens. Yes, we are paranoid. I'm about to open the lobby door when someone spins me around.
"Jadeite you almost scared me half to death!" He gave a slight chuckle at my shock.
"What are you doing out so late? It's almost eleven." I shake my head.
"I was going to Ami's in attempt to make Malachite think I was going to some guy's house and then he would come to his senses and reassure me...that he loves me. But he didn't even stop me from getting off the damn bus." A single tear rolled down my eye and Jadeite wiped the tear away.
"Aww don't cry. Listen do you want to call Ami down and we can go get a late snack?" I shook my head and smiled.
"No, it's okay. Malachite...he was my first love but maybe he wasn't meant to be my only love. I admire how it isn't so hard for you and Rei to admit your feelings." He smirked.
"To tell you the truth Rei has only told me once that she loves me. You know it's hard for Rei to open up to someone. Her past is a very dark one. But one day...she is going to wake up and say she loves me and she'll say it everyday and then I'll know she is content and relaxed fully around me. Just like things were way back then." I'll admit I didn't know a lot about Rei's and Jadeite's relationship but I know she loves him a lot but she scared to show it.
"Maybe Rei and Malachite are more alike then you think." I laughed.
"Despite the fact that Rei's a hot blooded Pyro and Malachite is an ice cube." He laughed along with me.
"Yeah...well I better get going or Rei going to wonder why I've stopped stalking her." I grinned. We all knew that Jadeite liked to sit in front of the fire while Rei was sleeping, his aura would wake her up and she would yell at him but then he would remind her that no negative thoughts were supposed to be thought of in the room of the great fire. Then he would also remind her that if she let him sleep with her she wouldn't be jolted awake by his sudden intense aura.
"Okay then goodnight Jadeite." We parted ways. I get into the elevator and look into one of the many glass mirrors. I wonder the reason Malachite was acting this way was because he didn't want me. Maybe I wasn't that beautiful but I was finding hard to understand why. I sighed and turned around once it stopped on Ami's floor. I walked out and to yet another shock, Malachite was waiting in front of the door. I instead pulled out Ami's key it was blue topped and it clanked against Usagi's pink and white keys.
"Venus." I looked up at him sharply, he was messing with my emotions.
"Damn it! The name is Minako!" He grabs my arm and pulls me to him. I glare up at him, hot tears ready to adore my face.
"I'm Minako, I'm not your goody good Venus anymore. I'm not a gullible woman anymore. I'm Anio Minako and god help me I'm not taking your bull. I may be Venus still but I'm also Minako and I'm telling you now that I'm not going to deal with this anymore." He looks hurt but I can't be put through this. I should have known that love wasn't going to come easy for the goddess of love.
"I love you...as Minako as Venus...or whatever you call yourself." I was shocked. He never said he loved me before. I think he enjoyed my shock because he grins. He becomes daring yet again tonight when he kisses me.
I missed his kisses.
His tongue against mine. His hands running under my dress to stroke the inside of my thigh. His ice melted. I loved this man I always have and always will.
I never made it into Ami's apartment that night.
AN: I know it seems like Minako compares herself to Rei. In the manga Minako sometimes refers to Rei as perfect and she sometimes see herself as imperfect (SuperS Manga Series) Also I would have changed Malachite name from the dubbed but I got lazy.
Ami or Makoto (Lita) Next?
Which one?
Review and let me know!
