Chapter 3


(Motoki’s Apartment)


The next morning Makoto woke to the sun shinning through a window she cuddled into her pillow surprised that it moved. When she opened her eyes she saw she was laying on someone’s chest. With a tilt of her head she looked up seeing Motoki still fast asleep. A smile came to her face as she thought of last night. It had been one of the most amazing nights of her life. She leaned up on the bed pressing a kiss to Motoki’s lips. He sighed in his sleep at first then kissed her back. “Mmm morning.” He said putting his arms around her pulling them together.


“Did you sleep well?” He asked.


“I did.” She said while her fingers traced along his chest. There was a brief pause before she looked up at him and asked. “So does this mean you are my boyfriend now?”


A smile crossed his face as he thought about how cute Makoto looked right now. “Do you want me to be?” He asked to which she nodded with a shy smile on her face. “Alright but that means you are my girlfriend then.”


“I think I can deal with that.” She said then looked into the other room after hearing a beeping sound. “Aye! My phone, I didn’t tell the others where I went last night. They have to be worried sick!” She sprung out of the bed heading to the other room forgetting she was naked until Motoki whistled at her. “Oh hush up you!” She said then grabbed a sheet from the bed wrapping it around her. She found her phone in her purse on the sofa. There were twenty-six messages from Usagi, Rei, Minako and a couple from Ami. She opened a new message and addressed it to everyone.


Gomen, I got caught in the storm and stayed with a friend see you @ crown.


She tucked the phone into her purse and turned to see Motoki with a laundry basket in his arms. She hadn’t seen him leave the bedroom and was startled for a few minutes she stared at him, he was only wearing a pair of boxers that had little turtles on them. “Your clothes are clean whenever you want to get dressed.” He said.


“Thanks she said reaching into the basket and getting her things. “I’m meeting the girls at Crown in about an hour can you give me a ride.”


“Yeah sure,” Motoki said as she pressed a kiss to his cheek and disappeared into the bathroom. He heard the shower turn on and thought about joining her but decided not to. He didn’t want to scare her away by moving too fast.


About half an hour later Makoto came out of the bathroom. She was dressed but had a sad look on her face. “Maybe I will message them back and say I’m not going. I don’t want them to see this." She said pointing to the bruise on the side of her face.


“Wait I have just the thing.” He said then ran into the other room coming back with a make up bag. “Here you can use this to cover it.”


“Do I even want to know why you have a case of make-up?” Makoto asked with a teasing smile on her face.


“My sister was here visiting a couple weeks ago she left it here. I’ve been trying to get Unazuki to come get it but she’s been too busy.” Motoki said his face a bright red.


(Crown)


“Usagi, I thought you said Mako-chan was coming.” Michiru asked a concerned look on her face. She was worried about the storm that happened last night and what would happen if Makoto didn’t learn to control her powers. She glanced briefly to Haruka who had gently patted her leg under the table.


“Ano, I got a text message saying she would.” Usagi said around a mouthful of pancakes.


“Usagi! Don’t talk with your mouthful!” Rei scolded.


Usagi stuck her tongue out at Rei making a face and causing the Fire Senshi to start yelling at her.


“I think she is here.” Ami quietly said with a sweat drop on her cheek as she looked at her two friends then at a girl outside getting off the back of a motorcycle.


“I think you are right Ami-chan.” Minako said loud enough to get Usagi and Rei’s attention. “Who is that cute boy with her?” Both Usagi and Rei turned around pressing their faces to the window looking at Makoto. Minako was soon to follow along with Ami who was more discreet about it.


Michiru chuckled and Haruka shook her head while Usagi and the others still had their faces pressed to the glass. “It kinda looks like Motoki-san.” Usagi said, “I haven’t seen him since he stopped working here.”


“It is Motoki-san” Minako said then gasped along with the other three younger girls. “She just kissed him! And not like a kiss on the cheek!”


Michiru leaned close to Haruka and whispered, “I think we know what caused the storm last night.”


Haruka nodded and glanced up as Makoto walked into the café. “I don’t think that is all of it.” Haruka said noticing the heavy application of make-up around her eye. When Haruka was younger especially after being thrown out by her father she had gotten into a lot of fights and used make-up to hide it so the school wouldn’t ask questions about it.


“So Mako-chan, what was that all about?” Rei asked with a big grin.


“Motoki gave me a ride.” Makoto said with a blush.


“Oh! Just Motoki? I didn’t know you were on such close terms.” Usagi said smirking “Maybe koibito?”


“Have to be with a kiss like that.” Minako said joining in. Ami only shook her head but in truth was just as curious as the others.


By now Makoto was blushing bright red. She glanced around seeing Michiru and Haruka still leaning closing and whispering though they were so close it looked as they may have been kissing. “They are kissing and you don’t seem to care about it. But I kiss someone and it is headline news.” Makoto said pointing at the couple.


“Yeah, but Haruka-san and Michiru-san kiss all the time.” Minako said the others nodding and the couple in question blushing. “So dish. Is Motoki-san the ‘friend’ you stayed with last night?”


“Hai, hai.” Makoto said as she sat down and ordered. “I left the party and got caught in the storm where I ran into Motoki. I want back to his place. We just really clicked and are going out now.” Makoto said omitting that they had slept together and that she had gotten into a fight with Ando.


Throughout the rest of breakfast each girl took turns interrogating Makoto until one by one they each had classes to go to. All that remained was Haruka, Michiru and Makoto. The brunette started to reach into her bag for her wallet but Haruka stopped her. “I’ll get it, save your money for books or something.” Makoto started to protest but Haruka stopped her with a wave. “We’ll give you a ride home too. Besides I wanted to talk about what happened last night. What really happened last night.” Haruka said as they were walking towards a black sports car. The other car was at the tracks with her pit crew promising Michiru that they would fix the car.


“Last night?” Makoto gulped.


“Hai, for starters who hit you?” Haruka asked opening the car door for both Michiru and Makoto. Unconsciously Makoto reached up to her cheek thinking the make-up had rubbed off. “Your make-up is fine I just know what a black eye looks like when covered by make-up.”


“We were at a party and I went up stairs with a boy he started getting too hands on so I pushed him away. That’s when he hit me so I hit him back and ran out into the storm.” Makoto said. She had always been close to Haruka and felt if there was one person she could tell anything to it was Haruka.


“That storm was unusual don’t you think?” Haruka said clinching the steering wheel tight. She saw all of the inners as little sisters and wanted to find this boy and make him pay for hurting Makoto.


“Hai, the weather report didn’t say anything about rain.” Makoto said thinking about how bad of a storm it was. “It was so strong it didn’t really seem natural but then again we’ve had strange weather lately.”


“Mako-chan, that storm wasn’t natural.” Michiru said not knowing an easy way to explain. “What is your Senshi power?”


“Lightening,” Makoto said recalling how much thunder and lightening there had been. “Are you saying I caused that storm? Is that even possible?”


“It is remember the tropical storm two weeks ago one that the scientists are still baffled about?” Michiru asked.


“Kami-sama did I cause that too?” Makoto said. No one had been hurt but a couple of boats had been sunk.


“No that wasn’t you, Mako-chan.” Haruka said looking in the rear view mirror at her. “That was Michiru and I. Our powers are growing Makoto we each have control over our elements. I can control the wind, Michiru the sea and you thunder.”


“Wow how do you know about all this?” Makoto asked.


“Setsuna told us.” Michiru answered.


“Is she still at the Time Gate?” Makoto asked. Setsuna had told them she needed to be at the Time Gate for a while but she really was on Kimosei visiting her lover Taiki. They had been dating on and off again since the Silver Millennium each time Taiki was reborn. It always was in secret as during the Silver Millennium it was forbidden and even though it wasn’t now Setsuna wanted it kept private and told no one.


“Hai,” Haruka said, “I think Michiru and I have enough control over our own powers that we can help you learn to control yours.”


“Is it hard?” Makoto said.


“At first it can be but you’ll get the hang of it fast.” Haruka said stopping in front of the dorms. “Are you busy today? We can have a lesson if you want.”


“I don’t have any classes today so give me a minute to get changed?" Makoto said getting out of the car.
