The Kiss


Author Notes: This takes before episode 94 where Michiru and Haruka tell Usagi about love's first kiss.


It was a Saturday afternoon and so far it had been a youma free day. Both Haruka and Michiru had spent it relaxing. Well Michiru was relaxing she had opted to curl up on the sofa with a good book while Haruka went for a run. The blonde entered the apartment and went straight to the kitchen getting a water bottle, drinking nearly half of it as she walked back into the living room to find Michiru still reading her book. "You missed a good run the weather is beautiful, sunny with a light breeze." Haruka said leaning over the sofa hovering above Michiru a grin on her face.


"I run enough with my day job I don't want to do it on one of my rare down days." Michiru said looking up from her book finding herself mesmerized by Haruka's green eyes once again, really she could get lost for days in those eyes.


Haruka smile the shrugged. "Your loss. What are you reading anyway?" Michiru shook her head shaking herself out of the spell caused by the blonde's gaze then closed the book holding her finger in between the pages so not to loose her place but let Haruka see the cover. "Great Expectations? Did we get assigned that?" She asked worried she missed another assignment. With all the youma attacks they still had to maintain their grades and Michiru often had to remind Haruka about assignments and had even done a few for the blonde to keep them from getting kicked out of Mugen Gauken.


"It isn't homework Haruka, some people read for entertainment." Michiru said reaching up and ruffling the blonde's hair the regretting it when she felt her hand wet. "Ew go take a shower."


Haruka laughed as Michiru wiped her hand on her shirt. A blush cross her face when Michiru's fingers grazed her breast. She turned before the violinist could see it then headed to the bathroom. As she showered her thoughts drifted to the violinist but that wasn't anything new she seemed to always be thinking of her. Since making their promise they had continued to flirt and seemed closer. A couple of time after a late night youma battle Michiru had even fallen asleep in her bed. Haruka enjoyed waking up to Michiru in her arms but they hadn't gone any further then cuddling. They hadn't even kissed yet well anything more then a chaste kiss to the cheek or forehead. She still didn't know what to call their relationship; they weren't a couple yet they were more then friends. Michiru seemed open to the idea of being a couple but still was hesitant and Haruka hadn't pressed her. She turned the water off and dried off before changing into a pair of baggy pants and a T-shirt. Michiru was still on the sofa but Haruka noticed her book had fallen on the floor. She took a few steps seeing that she had fallen asleep. 'So beautiful' was all Haruka could think as she stared for several minutes. Michiru was so peaceful like an angel instead of the soldier she was. Without realizing it Haruka had moved closer and was leaning over Michiru. She placed one hand on the back of the sofa and the other on the seat of it next to Michiru's side. The violinist stirred but didn't wake up.


At least until she felt Haruka's lips pressed to hers. She opened her eyes seeing Haruka over her but didn't pull away. Actually she surprised herself when she returned the kiss and wrapped her arms around the racer's neck. Haruka took this as a sign to continue and brushed her tongue against Michiru's lips. When Michiru opened her lips slightly she gently pushed her tongue in. Michiru wasn't the first girl she had kissed but this was by far more intense then anything she had felt before and Haruka had enjoyed quite a few passionate nights with past girlfriends and even a few groupies. Prior to finding out her destiny as a Sailor Senshi Haruka had built up quite a reputation as a flirt and a player.


While they continued to kiss Michiru pulled Haruka into her so the blonde was almost laying on top of her. She closed her eyes and thought 'her first kiss' as she felt Haruka's tongue in her mouth and her hands stroking through her hair. She never had a boyfriend or had even thought of having a girlfriend. That wasn't for a lack of suitors. She had attended a private music school and everyday she found notes, roses, and other gifts in her shoe cubby but none of the boys drew her in. Sure a few of them were cute and there was even this American transfer student Brad that had tried so hard but not even he had peaked her interest. She thought it was just because she was focused on her music. After her father died she threw herself into it to avoid the pain of being alone. He had raised her since her mother had died in childbirth. Yet here she was having her first kiss and from another girl. It was so amazing and though she didn't have anything to compare it to she knew Haruka was a good kisser.


When they pulled apart Haruka still hovered over her a blissful look on her face until it sunk in as to what she had just done. "Michiru, I am so sorry I don't know what came over me." Haruka stammered.


"It's alright Haruka. I didn't expect it but I think I liked it." Michiru said a light blush on her face. Haruka was still laying on her and she could feel their bodies pressed together making her body tingle all over.


"You did?" Haruka hopefully asked afraid she hadn't heard her right. Kissing Michiru was truly amazing, she tasted so sweet and their bodies seemed to fit perfectly together like they were made for each other. All Haruka could think of was kissing her again.


"Hai." Michiru said then shifted on the sofa so Haruka could lay down. When the blonde took her cue she curled into her resting her head on Haruka's shoulder. "Haruka do you regret becoming a Senshi?"


She was quiet for sometime both thinking the question over and enjoying having Michiru in her arms. Plus there was still the taste of the violinist on her lips to distract her, "Sometimes yes especially after a youma gives us a good beating but then I think about how I never would have met you or had you as a friend if I wasn't a Senshi."


"Hmm," Michiru sighed leaning more into Haruka feeling the blonde wrap her arm around her waist. "Maybe we could be more then just friends." She said avoiding eye contact with Haruka afraid to look Haruka in the eyes even though she was well aware of how the blonde felt about her she was still nervous.


"Kotikho?" Haruka eagerly asked looking at Michiru bring her chin up. She often wondered why Michiru always hid her face when she talked to her. She loved staring into the blue pools of Michiru's eyes. Her eyes often seemed cold to people but not to Haruka she could see past that knowing there was more to Michiru then a cold façade.


"Not so fast speed racer." Michiru giggled her eyes locking with Haruka's as she briefly thought of Haruka laying over her making love to her. It caused her to blush just at the thought. Was Haruka as good of a lover as she was a kisser? "How about you just being my girlfriend for now?"


"I can do that." Haruka said lifting Michiru's chin and pressing a chaste kiss to her lips. There was silence between them again but it wasn't uncomfortable. "Michiru, you awoke me as a Senshi but how did you become one?"


"I stared getting the dreams about the Silence. I got one every couple of days. Then I had them every night for a month straight. I hardly got any sleep at all. The dreams changed after that I kept seeing a tall woman with dark green hair. She told me I was needed to stop the Silence to stop my dreams from coming true. One day as I was walking home from school a youma attacked me. I was so scared and didn't know what to do. My Henshin Stick appeared before me I took it and fought the youma." Michiru said remembering how scared she had been but she now felt safe in Haruka's arms. She really wanted to believe that everything would be okay if she stayed in the blonde's arms but she knew that probably wasn't true.


"This woman who is she?" Haruka asked a vague image of a tall green haired woman forming in her head. She remembered her from her mother's funeral but couldn't make out who she was.


"I don't know she seemed so familiar to me but I can't even describe her face. She would tell me things. She told me about you. I don't know why I just knew I could trust her." Michiru said remembering all the conversations she had with this woman in her dreams. The woman said that she would have a partner and be very close to her. Did the green haired woman know how close they would be?


"Does she still come into your dreams?" Haruka asked knowing Michiru still had the nightmare every so often Michiru's sleep was restless and Haruka did all she could to sooth the smaller girl but hardly anything could pull her out of the dream. All she could do was hold her in her arms until the dream was over.


"No I haven't seen her since you became a Senshi." Michiru said resting her head on Haruka's shoulder. They laid together for a while both of them falling asleep on the sofa.
