Seven Days
Chapter 9
You learn new things everyday
*Mamoru*
He watched amusedly as Mamoru couldn't help but fall asleep on the couch. Everyone was busy trying to figure out what would be the next dare and hadn't really noticed Mamoru dozing off, but he had. He was kind of mad at Jed for making Mamoru do what he did, but knew that he could be a real asshole sometimes. This was just one example of their childish rivalries and they all knew that his dare was no big deal; Mamoru will just wake up in about 15 minutes or so.
He'd remembered the first time he'd witnessed Mamoru passed out like that and how he had really freaked out. In all their years of partying and drinking, Mamoru was always able to hold his liquor, so at first he'd thought that there was something seriously wrong with him. When Motoki had found him nearly unconscious in the bathroom one night a couple of years ago, he'd thought that Mamoru was dead.
They'd been partying most of the night and it had been well into morning by the time he'd found him. He'd just finished kicking the last person out of their apartment and was going to take a piss before going to bed when he'd seen Mamoru curled up by the bathtub unconscious.
He made sure that Mamoru was actually alive and then proceeded to try and wake him up by slapping him around a couple of times. It had been nearly impossible, but Mamoru finally woke up, confused, but still incredibly alert, and he'd been relieved. He'd feared that maybe Mamoru had OD'ed on some hard drugs that he knew a lot of their friends always used, but thankfully that hadn't been the case since Mamoru claimed that he was only drinking. The thought of him possibly being poisoned/drugged crossed his mind, but Mamoru rolled his eyes at his paranoia and told him that he was just really tired and drunk and that just needed some sleep.
They left it at that until it happened again about a week later. He, Mamoru and Cass had been in a limousine on their way home from some gala even that Mamoru had invited them to. They were drinking in the car, laughing and joking until Mamoru abruptly stopped talking midsentence. He yawned loudly and leaned back on the seat, falling asleep instantly.
Cass almost started crying, believing that he was dying or something and Motoki had to shake her and tell her to calm down. Mamoru then had unexpectedly looked up at them from his napping spot and told them that they were being loud and that he was tired and was trying to sleep. They both looked at him dumbfounded, not understanding what exactly was going on that would cause Mamoru to pass out like an old person after dusk.
They let him sleep till the end of their ride and he woke up by himself when the car stopped in front of their apartment. He stretched out once and complained about how hungry he was. He helped Cass get out the car, because she was by far the most drunk of all of them, and Motoki remembered jealously watching him carry Cass up to their elevator--quite soberly--while he tried not to stumble over his own footsteps.
After that night, they soon came to realize that Mamoru's little naps were quite sobering indeed. He and Mamoru eventually tested it out a couple of times just for the heck of it with alcohol strips they'd bought at a drug store and what they'd found out was surprising. The alcohol in Mamoru's blood would seem to vanish after his little 'naps', and he'd wake up refreshed and alert--the very opposite of a hangover!
They wondered how that could happen and came up with many ridiculous theories, and eventually just chalked up to his damn crazy superhero powers. That was the only reasonable explanation they could come up with that made sense; Mamoru had morphed into an alien! All in all, Mamoru's 'talent' was quite useful and at the moment he wished that he were in his shoes because dammit he was tired too. For the past two days he hadn't been getting nearly any sleep.
He was broken out of his current thoughts when he noticed Usagi peek back at Mamoru and notice humorously that he was sleeping. She nudged him softly, trying to wake him up and Mamoru yawned, looking at her briefly before closing his eyes again.
"Idiot," he heard her mumble, nudging him again.
"Shut up," Mamoru muttered, going back to sleep.
Usagi rolled her eyes, but pulled him down to her, letting him rest on her lap. She leaned over and whispered something in his ear, to which Mamoru simply shrugged and continued his nap. He noticed Usagi bite her lip excitedly; a mischievous gleam in her eye as she quickly started running her fingers through Mamoru's hair.
He was surprised that she was being so nice to him, knowing that there had to be an ulterior motive because he doubted that she was giving him a scalp massage. When she started separating his hair into small square sections, he finally realized what she was actually doing; she was braiding his hair!
He and Cass watch in interest as she made sloppy short braids that stuck out his head comically. He couldn't really see Mamoru on account of his face being buried into his arm on her legs, but he could already tell that he looked like a damn fool. Usagi thought of the most randomly hilarious things sometimes!
Mina suddenly got up from her seat and stretched herself out with a prolonged yawn and his attention immediately jumped to her. He'd almost forgotten that she was here. The rest of the group was staring at her now too as she hadn't been introduced to any of them yet and Usagi looked like she was about to call her over to make the introductions.
"Minako..." Kunzite said slowly, watching her from where he was sitting with a smirk. Mina looked up at him immediately, a delightfully surprised expression on her face and she smiled widely at him. The rest of them quieted down while trying to listen in on their exchange, surprised that those two knew each other. Mina stepped in front of Kunzite and placed her hands on her hips.
"I didn't know that you were going to be here..." she teased. Kunzite pushed his chair back from the table and studied her carefully, his eyes never leaving her face. The fact that Kunzite even acknowledged a female was incredibly rare and he wondered (as they all were right now) just how did they know each other.
Kunzite responded back, but he spoke so low, that none of them could hear. Oh how he wished that he could be Ami right now! She was sitting right across from them and undoubtedly knew exactly what they were saying.
Kunzite surprisingly pulled Mina into a hug and she yipped happily, wrapping her arms around his neck and the guys around him looked at each other knowingly. So they definitely knew each other; very well too, considering how close Kunzite's hand was to grabbing her ass... This was pretty weird considering he never seen him act like with anyone before. He was much more reserved and never showed any type of emotion whatsoever--at all... ever!
To his right, Rei leaned over him and made eye contact with Usagi, who looked as confused as her. Rei mouthed to her 'Who is he?' to which Usagi shrugged her shoulders in reply. They all looked on curiously as Kunzite pulled the chair next to him and offered it to Mina. She sat down and they both started chatting, perfectly ignoring everyone else.
"Looks like Kunzy-kun might have found himself a girl," Cass whispered in his ear and he nodded. "Guess the stickler isn't a complete robot after all," she said and they both snickered at her joke. Kunzite was known for having a lot of arm candy, but nothing more.
The group continued to play their game without any more interruptions and after about a half hour later, the bus came to a smooth stop. Cass jumped up almost immediately and started taking off her clothes, showing off her skimpy black triangular top and tiny matching panty before anyone else even realized they had arrived. That's one thing that he didn't always appreciate from her; she was always a show off. Right now however, as she twirled, giving him a full 360 view of her hot body, he'd be lying if he said he wasn't glad that she was.

*Usagi*
She was the last one off the bus because not only did it take forever to lift Mamoru's fat head off her lap, it took even longer to wake him up! She was so frustrated because she just wanted to join the others in the beach already, soaking up the sun. But of course, she had to be the one babysitting!
"Mamoru-san!" she pleaded, hitting his cheek repeatedly, disappointed that not even Motoki had stayed behind to help her. As soon as the bus stopped moving everyone practically jumped off the bus like it was hazardous or something. She could have left him behind, but she just didn't have the heart to.
Stupid Mamoru; he probably hadn't eaten anything the whole morning and was drinking on an empty stomach. She was glad that he wasn't throwing up all over the place, but she was angry with his stupid friends for daring him to drink that much. Still, she couldn't deny that she enjoyed getting to pet him while he slept on her lap (and the braids she'd done were so goofy, that it took all she had to not laugh at them still!).
"What the hell?" he finally woke up startled, looking around at the empty seats confused. She handed him a bottle of water she got from the fridge and he drank it greedily. "We're here already?" She nodded and handed him some crackers she found hidden in the cabinets.
"Eat this. I don't need you fainting on me again," she smiled and he looked offended.
"I didn't faint!" he argued. "I'm just tired." He shoved a whole bunch of crackers into mouth at one time. "And hungry."
He hurriedly took off his already soaking shirt and she couldn't blame him, she was starting to sweat too. It was just so hot now that the bus was parked and the air conditioner was turned off. She tried to look away from his body, but found that she couldn't. How was she going to manage for the rest of the day?!
"Whatever," she mumbled. "You should just be happy that I didn't ditch you to go play in the sand, so stop being so grumpy and wake up already! Let's go!" she said urgently, trying to haul him off the couch. He didn't budge, but instead gave her the slow once over, her heart racing at the look he was giving her. Suddenly he didn't look all that sleepy anymore.
"Come over here..." he whispered with a small grin, tugging her hand gently to him. She hesitantly took a step closer and he grabbed her waist, his hands heating her up even more.
He slowly started lifting up the bottom of her dress and she stayed perfectly still. His concentrated gaze on her body made her flush in excitement as his fingers teased their way over her hips. He stood up and she let him pull the dress off her completely. They stood close to each other in silence.
She looked up at him and was not disappointed at his intense stare--while she tried to keep her own excitement at bay. She'd been planning on a pink one-piece cutout, but changed her mind last minute to her all-time favorite white bikini. It was incredibly flattering and perhaps a tiny bit more revealing than most, but overall, she was completely confident about how good she looked in it. She did want to look sexy for him after all...
His look was sending shivers down her spine and she was happy to know that she'd gotten his attention. He reached for her bare waist, but she shied away from his touch. As much as she enjoyed him, this was not a good time for this; their friends were waiting for them outside and she did not want to appear all hot and bothered in front of them.
"Are you ready to go?" she asked him hesitantly.
"What's the rush..." he purred, watching her chest rise and fall from her nervous breathing with careful observation. She rolled her eyes when he bit his lips in temptation.
"I don't need people wondering what's taking us so long to join them," she reminded him and he nodded reluctantly. She grabbed her beach bag off the table and he followed her off the bus.
When she got out, she noticed that they were in a deserted beach; there was absolutely no one around with the exception of her friends in the distance before them. This wasn't the beach that they had planned on going to... Where were they?
"Where the hell did you bring us?" she asked him. They were literally in the middle of nowhere, just miles of beach as far as she could see and nothing else except some trees inland.
"We're at a private beach, Odango," he said simply and she accepted his answer. It was actually pretty cool having the beach all to themselves. "Are you hungry?" he asked her and she wondered if that was a trick question.
One- she was almost always hungry and two- what would they eat anyway, they were alone in a desert beach with no stores, no vendors to buy food from. Unless he planned on driving the bus back somewhere...
"Are you mocking me?" she asked honestly. He shook his head smiling.
"No, I'm serious. I'm starving and I wanna get something to eat," he replied. She nodded; she was so freaking hungry too, but didn't want to say anything. It was her fault for not waking up early enough to eat some breakfast. "Let's ask everybody else if they're hungry and then we could bring them back some food," he suggested and she wanted to ask exactly from where, but figured that he must know what he was doing.
They caught up to the rest of the group where they had already started to lay out their beach towels. Cass and her sisters were already lying down on their blankets sunbathing, just as she had predicted. While they were off to the side, the rest of them had just connected their blankets into a big sloppy circle anywhere there was space and plopped themselves onto it.
No one was in the water yet and she was glad; she didn't want to feel like she was missing out on all the fun. When Mamoru's friends looked up and saw them, they burst into laughter. Mamoru glared at them confused and she started giggling despite herself.
"Nice braids..." Jed mocked and Motoki grinned at her proudly. Mamoru self-consciously reached for his head and felt his hair nervously. He turned to her wide-eyed and she passed him her mirror from her bag. He looked at himself horrified.
"What the hell did you do?!" he demanded, brushing his hair frantically with his fingers. Because she had only been able to reach one side of his head, he looked hilarious with only half his hair braided while the rest of his hair stuck up messily. "You're gonna be the first one I throw in the water," he muttered once he'd finished fixing his hair back to normal. She squealed; that water looked cold!
She looked around, looking for a space to open her blanket that wasn't too close to Mamoru's in case he decided to make good of that threat. She noticed that Minako and Kunzite were the only ones missing from the group and she looked around to find where they were. As soon as she saw them, she was instantly jealous of their huge umbrella. They had set up couple of feet apart from the group and were currently rubbing 'sunscreen' on each other. They had no shame!
She turned to Rei, but she was giving all her attention to Chad, so she turned to Makoto, but Max had sparked up a conversation with her. And Ami, well she was already napping on her back with her arm covering her face. She sighed; her stupid friends were always ignoring her! She moved her blanket in between Motoki and Jed's.
"I'm gonna go pick up the breakfast; I'll be right back," Mamoru announced and the people that were listening to him merely nodded their heads while they continued to settle themselves into the sand. He turned to her expectantly. "You coming?" he asked. She looked up at him while trying to block the sun from her eyes.
"And why do I have to go with you?" she asked. She really wanted to go with him, but didn't want to sound too obedient or willing to venture off alone with him, especially since Motoki and Jed were watching her.
"I can't bring carry all that stuff by myself," he replied innocently, extending his arm for her to grab.
"I'll go with you if you really need that much help," Jed offered, but Mamoru only glared at him in silence and Usagi knew perfectly well what that look meant; Mamoru wanted them alone. She grabbed his hand and he helped her up, pulling her by the waist away from them. "Looks like someone woke up mighty grumpy..." Jed called out mockingly as she and Mamoru left.
"He's an asshole," Mamoru muttered (indeed grumpily) and she shrugged. She thought Jed was kind of funny. She followed Mamoru back in the direction they had come from and looked at him when they passed by the bus.
"Where are we going?" she asked, not seeing any destination, only greenery a little distance off, marking the edge of the beach.
"To my house..." he replied hesitantly, watching her reaction to his confession. She didn't say anything as she looked at him surprised. So this was probably another one of those 'party pads' that he had EVERYWHERE apparently... Rich bastard!
Once they walked into a clearing behind the distant shrubs, it was then that she finally was able to see the house. To say it was huge was a complete understatement and she honestly had never seen a place so big before (how in the world hadn't she been able to spot it from the beach?)! She was in complete awe but tried to hide it; she didn't need to give him another thing to be cocky about.
They reached a pathway and she almost laughed at the comical sound of Mamoru's stomach grumbling; he really was hungry! He looked at her sheepishly and shrugged, not embarrassed in the least and they continued up the path until they reached a 15 foot steel gate that seemed to surround the entire estate.
Mamoru opened a flap to a security console and punched numbers into it. When it beeped, another tray popped up out and Mamoru placed his hand on it for a moment until it beeped again. Then she heard the clicking sound of the tall gates unlocking and automatically opening slowly for them--he really went all out in security, but she knew that it must be necessary to protect something so expensive.
It was clear to her now that this was all Mamoru's stuff... From the bus driver's uniformed sleeve, to the leather couches and chairs, the starting logo on the TV's when they were first turned on, CINC was everywhere. It was also on this gate (and Mamoru already admitted that this was his house), which pretty much meant that everything else was his too; from the bus (and driver), the house, and the beach! Mamoru owned it all!
Apparently Ami had been on to something, Mamoru was filthy rich! What else did she not know about? And how was it that he'd been able to hide his extravagant life from her in all these years? (Maybe he was a little more humble than she thought...) But even more importantly: how could he possibly have all this money? What amount of inheritance could afford all this stuff? Apparently CINC = Mamoru, so then... what the hell was CINC?
"What do you do?" she asked him curiously, if not a little accusingly. He looked at her, understanding exactly what she'd meant, but hesitated in answering.
"I work at a business management company in eastern Tokyo," he said carefully.
"What. Do. You. Do?" she asked again slowly, because he was being purposely vague. What she really want to ask was: Who are you?! Because apparently she didn't even know.
"Does it really matter?" he asked her with a smile that almost made her forget what she was talking about. "Nothing important." She nodded; mad that he wasn't willing to at least share the most basic bit of information about himself... Whatever, it wasn't that important anyway, that was true. So she let it go and continued walking with him toward something that was important; food.
They had been walking for at least ten minutes and they still seemed to be miles away from the house. It was like a million degrees outside and she was so sweaty walking across the lumpy lawn; she just wanted to stop and take a break already! Mamoru was sweating too, but at least he looked much better for it...
He was practically glistening under the intense sunlight and she just wanted to reach out and touch him! She almost couldn't believe that he was entirely real; to say that he was cut up wouldn't even do him justice! His body was too remarkable for words and she had to refrain her thoughts from wandering about how it would feel to have her hands roaming over his muscular back. Or how much she would love to lick the cute line of hair under his bellybutton that led her down...
She hated how she could be mad at him one moment and yet so horny the very next! What was wrong with her? She had to find a way to distract herself from his gleaming body and suave grin; she couldn't keep thinking about these dirty thoughts! If she did, she's just pounce on him again like she did yesterday and she didn't want to seem that desperate! But she couldn't help thinking about just what he had planned once they were far and all alone...
"So this is your place?" she asked him randomly, trying to cut off her pervy thoughts. They had finally made it close to the house and had just passed a pool house, but continued to make their way through the longest pathway ever. They were facing toward the back of the main house and had just reached a lounge area that had three different sized pools and a huge water slide in one of them. THIS PLACE WAS AWESOME!
"It was my parent's home," he said after a moment of silence. She was surprised at his answer; she rarely ever heard him talk about his parents before and didn't want to push her luck by saying anything that might make him upset. She knew his parents had died when he was very young and understood it as being a very touchy topic for him. "They were the founders of Chiba Incorporated..." he trailed off.
She paused; Chiba Incorporated? As in Chiba INC... as in C-INC... That was it! She finally remembered where she knew that logo from! Chiba Incorporated (logoed CINC) was some kind of sponsor to other businesses around Tokyo and although she didn't know all that much about stuff like that, she did know some things. Like how whatever they managed, they partially owned and considering that nearly every small business in the city had that logo stuck onto its window display, CINC was a pretty freaking huge company!
CINC ran the whole of Japan and she was sure that they also had international clients as well... She couldn't believe that Mamoru was the heir to such an empire. And to think that she'd known a billionaire for how many years now?! Her mind was in frenzy; she had no idea what to think--she didn't even know who the real Mamoru Chiba was!
"I'm honestly surprised, that you're so surprised..." he mocked, looking at her shocked expression. "I know you're the type to follow gossip columns and I'm in them all the time," he said breezily, as if what he'd just revealed to her was no big thing.
And although she did feel foolish for not realizing it earlier, (she was sure he was as much of a celebrity as you can get: he was young, rich, influential AND a sexy beast!), she did have her own things to worry about: like her own life! She was finally becoming a high school senior next semester! And had to start thinking about college... And she was finally turning 17! And she still had her Sailor duties to worry about... And then there were guys! See? She had stresses too!
"I have other things in my life to worry about, you know!" she bit angrily because she honestly did feel stupid. Looking back on it, IT WAS SO OBVIOUS!
"Ami figured it out the day she met me," he said with a raised eyebrow. "And I think that she would have a little more on her plate than you, Odango," he teased. She seethed silently; AMI! That little bitch never said anything!
"Well it explains why you're always incognito when you come into the arcade..." she finally answered, understanding the constant sunglasses he wore.
"Can you imagine what would happen if just half of those girls knew who I was? Riots. Everyday..." he boasted and she shook his head at his incredible ego. "I'm too fucking amazing," he gloated. "You should consider yourself lucky that you know me," he told her with a wink and she snorted.
"Get over yourself," she mumbled, but she knew that he was right.
"You can't talk to a superstar like that," he said, bringing a smile out of her. She rolled her eyes anyway as they had finally reached the back porch. Mamoru slid open the glass door and they both went inside the house.
She walked into the grandeur of what seemed to be a huge entertainment space with a pool table and fireplace. He made a left into a hallway adjacent to it and they finally reached the kitchen; and what a kitchen it was! Everything looked shiny and new as the state of the art appliances gleamed under the bright sunlight that entered through the large windows. He turned on the air conditioner in the room from a control panel that was on top of kitchen counter and she was thankful; the long trek over here was finally starting to feel worth it.
She stood behind him as they both looked inside the fridge and what she saw inside was pure heaven to her! It was not only fully stocked as she'd imagined it'd be, but there were desserts galore! She reached out to grab the tray of strawberry cheesecake, but he quickly pushed her hand away. She glared at him and instead grabbed a cup of chocolate pudding, but he took it from out of her hand.
"What the hell! I didn't walk all this way just to watch you eat!" she cried in frustration, snatching at his hand as he held it out of reach. She seethed.
"Calm down!" he laughed jovially, dodging her feet as she was trying desperately to stomp on his toes in retaliation. "Geez, you're so vicious when it comes to food!" he observed, but finally handed her back the pudding. She puffed angry breaths, but instantly forgave him as soon as he sidestepped from the fridge and let her take some stuff out. She picked up all of the delicious looking munchies she could see and placed them on the counter where she happily started digging through them.
"What?" she demanded once she noticed that he was staring at her.
"How come you're not fat?" he asked with his eyes unashamedly roaming over her body. She was suddenly regretting not putting her slip back on to come to the house with him... His appreciative look was both exciting and embarrassing at the same time! She shrugged at him, trying to brush off his stare like it wasn't screwing up with her insides.
"I exercise obviously," she told him slowly as if he was dumb. She opened a pack of chocolate chip muffins and bit into one slowly; it was so good! "This taste amazing!"
"Odango?" Mamoru looked at her curiously and she nodded to mean she was listening. "Have you had sex before?" he asked without being bashful in the least. She congratulated herself in not choking, but it was a close call! She stared at him in astonishment. What the hell kind of question was that? She continued to chew her food slowly and looked away from him, knowing she was blushing.
"I'm not going to answer that!" she said haughtily before taking another bite of her muffin. Did he honestly think that she was going to reveal all her personal business to him just because he asked! She wanted to smack that stupid smirk right off his face! "It shouldn't matter to you either way!" she huffed.
"That's true," he admitted. "I don't really care if you're a virgin or not," he said with a mischievous smile. "I just wanted to know how slow I should go on you."

Cass almost started crying, believing that he was dying or something and Motoki had to shake her and tell her to calm down.

The alcohol in Mamoru's blood would seem to vanish after his little 'naps', and he'd wake up refreshed and alert--the very opposite of a hangover!
They wondered how that could happen and came up with many ridiculous theories, and eventually just chalked up to his damn crazy superhero powers.

Usagi rolled her eyes, but pulled him down to her, letting him rest on her lap. She leaned over and whispered something in his ear, to which Mamoru simply shrugged and continued his nap. He noticed Usagi bite her lip excitedly; a mischievous gleam in her eye as she quickly started running her fingers through Mamoru's hair.

He couldn't really see Mamoru on account of his face being buried into his arm on her legs, but he could already tell that he looked like a damn fool. Usagi thought of the most randomly hilarious things sometimes!
Mina suddenly got up from her seat and stretched herself out with a prolonged yawn and his attention immediately jumped to her. He'd almost forgotten that she was here. The rest of the group was staring at her now too as she hadn't been introduced to any of them yet and Usagi looked like she was about to call her over to make the introductions.
"Minako..." Kunzite said slowly, watching her from where he was sitting with a smirk. Mina looked up at him immediately, a delightfully surprised expression on her face and she smiled widely at him. The rest of them quieted down while trying to listen in on their exchange, surprised that those two knew each other. Mina stepped in front of Kunzite and placed her hands on her hips.
"I didn't know that you were going to be here..." she teased. Kunzite pushed his chair back from the table and studied her carefully, his eyes never leaving her face. The fact that Kunzite even acknowledged a female was incredibly rare and he wondered (as they all were right now) just how did they know each other.
Kunzite responded back, but he spoke so low, that none of them could hear. Oh how he wished that he could be Ami right now! She was sitting right across from them and undoubtedly knew exactly what they were saying.
Kunzite surprisingly pulled Mina into a hug and she yipped happily, wrapping her arms around his neck and the guys around him looked at each other knowingly. So they definitely knew each other; very well too, considering how close Kunzite's hand was to grabbing her ass... This was pretty weird considering he never seen him act like with anyone before. He was much more reserved and never showed any type of emotion whatsoever--at all... ever!
To his right, Rei leaned over him and made eye contact with Usagi, who looked as confused as her. Rei mouthed to her 'Who is he?' to which Usagi shrugged her shoulders in reply. They all looked on curiously as Kunzite pulled the chair next to him and offered it to Mina. She sat down and they both started chatting, perfectly ignoring everyone else.
"Looks like Kunzy-kun might have found himself a girl," Cass whispered in his ear and he nodded. "Guess the stickler isn't a complete robot after all," she said and they both snickered at her joke. Kunzite was known for having a lot of arm candy, but nothing more.
The group continued to play their game without any more interruptions and after about a half hour later, the bus came to a smooth stop. Cass jumped up almost immediately and started taking off her clothes, showing off her skimpy black triangular top and tiny matching panty before anyone else even realized they had arrived. That's one thing that he didn't always appreciate from her; she was always a show off. Right now however, as she twirled, giving him a full 360 view of her hot body, he'd be lying if he said he wasn't glad that she was.

*Usagi*
She was the last one off the bus because not only did it take forever to lift Mamoru's fat head off her lap, it took even longer to wake him up! She was so frustrated because she just wanted to join the others in the beach already, soaking up the sun. But of course, she had to be the one babysitting!
"Mamoru-san!" she pleaded, hitting his cheek repeatedly, disappointed that not even Motoki had stayed behind to help her. As soon as the bus stopped moving everyone practically jumped off the bus like it was hazardous or something. She could have left him behind, but she just didn't have the heart to.
Stupid Mamoru; he probably hadn't eaten anything the whole morning and was drinking on an empty stomach. She was glad that he wasn't throwing up all over the place, but she was angry with his stupid friends for daring him to drink that much. Still, she couldn't deny that she enjoyed getting to pet him while he slept on her lap (and the braids she'd done were so goofy, that it took all she had to not laugh at them still!).
"What the hell?" he finally woke up startled, looking around at the empty seats confused. She handed him a bottle of water she got from the fridge and he drank it greedily. "We're here already?" She nodded and handed him some crackers she found hidden in the cabinets.
"Eat this. I don't need you fainting on me again," she smiled and he looked offended.
"I didn't faint!" he argued. "I'm just tired." He shoved a whole bunch of crackers into mouth at one time. "And hungry."
He hurriedly took off his already soaking shirt and she couldn't blame him, she was starting to sweat too. It was just so hot now that the bus was parked and the air conditioner was turned off. She tried to look away from his body, but found that she couldn't. How was she going to manage for the rest of the day?!
"Whatever," she mumbled. "You should just be happy that I didn't ditch you to go play in the sand, so stop being so grumpy and wake up already! Let's go!" she said urgently, trying to haul him off the couch. He didn't budge, but instead gave her the slow once over, her heart racing at the look he was giving her. Suddenly he didn't look all that sleepy anymore.
"Come over here..." he whispered with a small grin, tugging her hand gently to him. She hesitantly took a step closer and he grabbed her waist, his hands heating her up even more.
He slowly started lifting up the bottom of her dress and she stayed perfectly still. His concentrated gaze on her body made her flush in excitement as his fingers teased their way over her hips. He stood up and she let him pull the dress off her completely. They stood close to each other in silence.
She looked up at him and was not disappointed at his intense stare--while she tried to keep her own excitement at bay. She'd been planning on a pink one-piece cutout, but changed her mind last minute to her all-time favorite white bikini. It was incredibly flattering and perhaps a tiny bit more revealing than most, but overall, she was completely confident about how good she looked in it. She did want to look sexy for him after all...
His look was sending shivers down her spine and she was happy to know that she'd gotten his attention. He reached for her bare waist, but she shied away from his touch. As much as she enjoyed him, this was not a good time for this; their friends were waiting for them outside and she did not want to appear all hot and bothered in front of them.
"Are you ready to go?" she asked him hesitantly.
"What's the rush..." he purred, watching her chest rise and fall from her nervous breathing with careful observation. She rolled her eyes when he bit his lips in temptation.
"I don't need people wondering what's taking us so long to join them," she reminded him and he nodded reluctantly. She grabbed her beach bag off the table and he followed her off the bus.
When she got out, she noticed that they were in a deserted beach; there was absolutely no one around with the exception of her friends in the distance before them. This wasn't the beach that they had planned on going to... Where were they?
"Where the hell did you bring us?" she asked him. They were literally in the middle of nowhere, just miles of beach as far as she could see and nothing else except some trees inland.
"We're at a private beach, Odango," he said simply and she accepted his answer. It was actually pretty cool having the beach all to themselves. "Are you hungry?" he asked her and she wondered if that was a trick question.
One- she was almost always hungry and two- what would they eat anyway, they were alone in a desert beach with no stores, no vendors to buy food from. Unless he planned on driving the bus back somewhere...
"Are you mocking me?" she asked honestly. He shook his head smiling.
"No, I'm serious. I'm starving and I wanna get something to eat," he replied. She nodded; she was so freaking hungry too, but didn't want to say anything. It was her fault for not waking up early enough to eat some breakfast. "Let's ask everybody else if they're hungry and then we could bring them back some food," he suggested and she wanted to ask exactly from where, but figured that he must know what he was doing.
They caught up to the rest of the group where they had already started to lay out their beach towels. Cass and her sisters were already lying down on their blankets sunbathing, just as she had predicted. While they were off to the side, the rest of them had just connected their blankets into a big sloppy circle anywhere there was space and plopped themselves onto it.
No one was in the water yet and she was glad; she didn't want to feel like she was missing out on all the fun. When Mamoru's friends looked up and saw them, they burst into laughter. Mamoru glared at them confused and she started giggling despite herself.
"Nice braids..." Jed mocked and Motoki grinned at her proudly. Mamoru self-consciously reached for his head and felt his hair nervously. He turned to her wide-eyed and she passed him her mirror from her bag. He looked at himself horrified.
"What the hell did you do?!" he demanded, brushing his hair frantically with his fingers. Because she had only been able to reach one side of his head, he looked hilarious with only half his hair braided while the rest of his hair stuck up messily. "You're gonna be the first one I throw in the water," he muttered once he'd finished fixing his hair back to normal. She squealed; that water looked cold!
She looked around, looking for a space to open her blanket that wasn't too close to Mamoru's in case he decided to make good of that threat. She noticed that Minako and Kunzite were the only ones missing from the group and she looked around to find where they were. As soon as she saw them, she was instantly jealous of their huge umbrella. They had set up couple of feet apart from the group and were currently rubbing 'sunscreen' on each other. They had no shame!
She turned to Rei, but she was giving all her attention to Chad, so she turned to Makoto, but Max had sparked up a conversation with her. And Ami, well she was already napping on her back with her arm covering her face. She sighed; her stupid friends were always ignoring her! She moved her blanket in between Motoki and Jed's.
"I'm gonna go pick up the breakfast; I'll be right back," Mamoru announced and the people that were listening to him merely nodded their heads while they continued to settle themselves into the sand. He turned to her expectantly. "You coming?" he asked. She looked up at him while trying to block the sun from her eyes.
"And why do I have to go with you?" she asked. She really wanted to go with him, but didn't want to sound too obedient or willing to venture off alone with him, especially since Motoki and Jed were watching her.
"I can't bring carry all that stuff by myself," he replied innocently, extending his arm for her to grab.
"I'll go with you if you really need that much help," Jed offered, but Mamoru only glared at him in silence and Usagi knew perfectly well what that look meant; Mamoru wanted them alone. She grabbed his hand and he helped her up, pulling her by the waist away from them. "Looks like someone woke up mighty grumpy..." Jed called out mockingly as she and Mamoru left.
"He's an asshole," Mamoru muttered (indeed grumpily) and she shrugged. She thought Jed was kind of funny. She followed Mamoru back in the direction they had come from and looked at him when they passed by the bus.
"Where are we going?" she asked, not seeing any destination, only greenery a little distance off, marking the edge of the beach.
"To my house..." he replied hesitantly, watching her reaction to his confession. She didn't say anything as she looked at him surprised. So this was probably another one of those 'party pads' that he had EVERYWHERE apparently... Rich bastard!
Once they walked into a clearing behind the distant shrubs, it was then that she finally was able to see the house. To say it was huge was a complete understatement and she honestly had never seen a place so big before (how in the world hadn't she been able to spot it from the beach?)! She was in complete awe but tried to hide it; she didn't need to give him another thing to be cocky about.
They reached a pathway and she almost laughed at the comical sound of Mamoru's stomach grumbling; he really was hungry! He looked at her sheepishly and shrugged, not embarrassed in the least and they continued up the path until they reached a 15 foot steel gate that seemed to surround the entire estate.
Mamoru opened a flap to a security console and punched numbers into it. When it beeped, another tray popped up out and Mamoru placed his hand on it for a moment until it beeped again. Then she heard the clicking sound of the tall gates unlocking and automatically opening slowly for them--he really went all out in security, but she knew that it must be necessary to protect something so expensive.
It was clear to her now that this was all Mamoru's stuff... From the bus driver's uniformed sleeve, to the leather couches and chairs, the starting logo on the TV's when they were first turned on, CINC was everywhere. It was also on this gate (and Mamoru already admitted that this was his house), which pretty much meant that everything else was his too; from the bus (and driver), the house, and the beach! Mamoru owned it all!
Apparently Ami had been on to something, Mamoru was filthy rich! What else did she not know about? And how was it that he'd been able to hide his extravagant life from her in all these years? (Maybe he was a little more humble than she thought...) But even more importantly: how could he possibly have all this money? What amount of inheritance could afford all this stuff? Apparently CINC = Mamoru, so then... what the hell was CINC?
"What do you do?" she asked him curiously, if not a little accusingly. He looked at her, understanding exactly what she'd meant, but hesitated in answering.
"I work at a business management company in eastern Tokyo," he said carefully.
"What. Do. You. Do?" she asked again slowly, because he was being purposely vague. What she really want to ask was: Who are you?! Because apparently she didn't even know.
"Does it really matter?" he asked her with a smile that almost made her forget what she was talking about. "Nothing important." She nodded; mad that he wasn't willing to at least share the most basic bit of information about himself... Whatever, it wasn't that important anyway, that was true. So she let it go and continued walking with him toward something that was important; food.
They had been walking for at least ten minutes and they still seemed to be miles away from the house. It was like a million degrees outside and she was so sweaty walking across the lumpy lawn; she just wanted to stop and take a break already! Mamoru was sweating too, but at least he looked much better for it...
He was practically glistening under the intense sunlight and she just wanted to reach out and touch him! She almost couldn't believe that he was entirely real; to say that he was cut up wouldn't even do him justice! His body was too remarkable for words and she had to refrain her thoughts from wandering about how it would feel to have her hands roaming over his muscular back. Or how much she would love to lick the cute line of hair under his bellybutton that led her down...
She hated how she could be mad at him one moment and yet so horny the very next! What was wrong with her? She had to find a way to distract herself from his gleaming body and suave grin; she couldn't keep thinking about these dirty thoughts! If she did, she's just pounce on him again like she did yesterday and she didn't want to seem that desperate! But she couldn't help thinking about just what he had planned once they were far and all alone...
"So this is your place?" she asked him randomly, trying to cut off her pervy thoughts. They had finally made it close to the house and had just passed a pool house, but continued to make their way through the longest pathway ever. They were facing toward the back of the main house and had just reached a lounge area that had three different sized pools and a huge water slide in one of them. THIS PLACE WAS AWESOME!
"It was my parent's home," he said after a moment of silence. She was surprised at his answer; she rarely ever heard him talk about his parents before and didn't want to push her luck by saying anything that might make him upset. She knew his parents had died when he was very young and understood it as being a very touchy topic for him. "They were the founders of Chiba Incorporated..." he trailed off.
She paused; Chiba Incorporated? As in Chiba INC... as in C-INC... That was it! She finally remembered where she knew that logo from! Chiba Incorporated (logoed CINC) was some kind of sponsor to other businesses around Tokyo and although she didn't know all that much about stuff like that, she did know some things. Like how whatever they managed, they partially owned and considering that nearly every small business in the city had that logo stuck onto its window display, CINC was a pretty freaking huge company!
CINC ran the whole of Japan and she was sure that they also had international clients as well... She couldn't believe that Mamoru was the heir to such an empire. And to think that she'd known a billionaire for how many years now?! Her mind was in frenzy; she had no idea what to think--she didn't even know who the real Mamoru Chiba was!
"I'm honestly surprised, that you're so surprised..." he mocked, looking at her shocked expression. "I know you're the type to follow gossip columns and I'm in them all the time," he said breezily, as if what he'd just revealed to her was no big thing.
And although she did feel foolish for not realizing it earlier, (she was sure he was as much of a celebrity as you can get: he was young, rich, influential AND a sexy beast!), she did have her own things to worry about: like her own life! She was finally becoming a high school senior next semester! And had to start thinking about college... And she was finally turning 17! And she still had her Sailor duties to worry about... And then there were guys! See? She had stresses too!
"I have other things in my life to worry about, you know!" she bit angrily because she honestly did feel stupid. Looking back on it, IT WAS SO OBVIOUS!
"Ami figured it out the day she met me," he said with a raised eyebrow. "And I think that she would have a little more on her plate than you, Odango," he teased. She seethed silently; AMI! That little bitch never said anything!
"Well it explains why you're always incognito when you come into the arcade..." she finally answered, understanding the constant sunglasses he wore.
"Can you imagine what would happen if just half of those girls knew who I was? Riots. Everyday..." he boasted and she shook his head at his incredible ego. "I'm too fucking amazing," he gloated. "You should consider yourself lucky that you know me," he told her with a wink and she snorted.
"Get over yourself," she mumbled, but she knew that he was right.
"You can't talk to a superstar like that," he said, bringing a smile out of her. She rolled her eyes anyway as they had finally reached the back porch. Mamoru slid open the glass door and they both went inside the house.
She walked into the grandeur of what seemed to be a huge entertainment space with a pool table and fireplace. He made a left into a hallway adjacent to it and they finally reached the kitchen; and what a kitchen it was! Everything looked shiny and new as the state of the art appliances gleamed under the bright sunlight that entered through the large windows. He turned on the air conditioner in the room from a control panel that was on top of kitchen counter and she was thankful; the long trek over here was finally starting to feel worth it.
She stood behind him as they both looked inside the fridge and what she saw inside was pure heaven to her! It was not only fully stocked as she'd imagined it'd be, but there were desserts galore! She reached out to grab the tray of strawberry cheesecake, but he quickly pushed her hand away. She glared at him and instead grabbed a cup of chocolate pudding, but he took it from out of her hand.
"What the hell! I didn't walk all this way just to watch you eat!" she cried in frustration, snatching at his hand as he held it out of reach. She seethed.
"Calm down!" he laughed jovially, dodging her feet as she was trying desperately to stomp on his toes in retaliation. "Geez, you're so vicious when it comes to food!" he observed, but finally handed her back the pudding. She puffed angry breaths, but instantly forgave him as soon as he sidestepped from the fridge and let her take some stuff out. She picked up all of the delicious looking munchies she could see and placed them on the counter where she happily started digging through them.
"What?" she demanded once she noticed that he was staring at her.
"How come you're not fat?" he asked with his eyes unashamedly roaming over her body. She was suddenly regretting not putting her slip back on to come to the house with him... His appreciative look was both exciting and embarrassing at the same time! She shrugged at him, trying to brush off his stare like it wasn't screwing up with her insides.
"I exercise obviously," she told him slowly as if he was dumb. She opened a pack of chocolate chip muffins and bit into one slowly; it was so good! "This taste amazing!"
"Odango?" Mamoru looked at her curiously and she nodded to mean she was listening. "Have you had sex before?" he asked without being bashful in the least. She congratulated herself in not choking, but it was a close call! She stared at him in astonishment. What the hell kind of question was that? She continued to chew her food slowly and looked away from him, knowing she was blushing.
"I'm not going to answer that!" she said haughtily before taking another bite of her muffin. Did he honestly think that she was going to reveal all her personal business to him just because he asked! She wanted to smack that stupid smirk right off his face! "It shouldn't matter to you either way!" she huffed.
"That's true," he admitted. "I don't really care if you're a virgin or not," he said with a mischievous smile. "I just wanted to know how slow I should go on you."
