Hello all! Well with 4 days and counting until I go to Tokyo I'm going to update all my stories as much as I can over the next few days and my websites as well! I will still continue writing once I reach Tokyo and I'm hoping (and letting me know wouldn't hurt) if anyone will still be interested in reading what I write once I'm there! I won't be doing anything for about 2 weeks come this Friday because it will take me that long to get internet hooked up in my apartment. Please say I won't lose you! So here is the next chapter, read and review but be kind. No Flames! Standard disclaimers.
Mamoru glared at the pouting blonde across from him, wondering why fate had obviously been so cruel as to tie them together. Then he remembered it wasn't fate he had to thank, it was Minako and he'd thank her properly once they got the hell out of there. "Stop pouting in the name of the goddess! Odango, you might as well talk to me." He commented.
"I'd rather roast in hell." She spat.
"You know if ignorance is bliss then you must be the happiest person in the universe." He shook his head.
"Just what the hell is that supposed to mean?" she snarled.
"It means whatever you want it to mean Odango."
"Stop calling me that!" she punched him in the shoulder.
"But the name suits you." He smiled, knowing she couldn't see it in the darkened elevator. "Look at your hair."
"It's a very old style." She defended. "From a very old people."
"So when is the mother ship coming to pick you up?"
Her jaw dropped. "How dumb do you think I am?"
"How much time do you have?" he retorted.
She chewed her lower lip, hating every moment of being trapped in here, despising being tied to him, dreading the moment they would have to leave. Why was it so hard for her to admit her attraction back? Why was it so hard for her to open up and let herself love everyone but him? Hoping the mostly dark box would hide her furtive movements, she adjusted herself so she had a clear view of his face and let her head bang back against the wall. By all that was holy, somehow she had fallen in love with her worst enemy. She realized she didn't mind if he one-upped her anymore because love didn't even leave her pride, and she was willing to let any comment pass with only a mild retort. Could she have said the same a few days ago? Humming under her breath, she closed her eyes and willed her mind to do anything other than think of the man who she would prefer to kiss than kill sitting half a foot away.
"Are you singing Odango?"
She cracked her eyes open. "I'm a little busy now, but I'll mock you later ok?"
He shook his head. "I wonder how you remember to breathe sometimes you know that?"
"Just leave me be right now Mamoru." She sighed. "I'm thinking."
Mamoru shivered. "I'm sorry, but hell just froze over."
"Then why don't you go there jerkass?"
"Only if you come too."
"Eternal damnation would be worth seeing you tortured and suffering for the rest of eternity." She snapped.
"I'm being tortured now by being stuck in here with you!" he retorted. "Damn you Usagi!"
"What the hell are you cursing at me about now?" she yelled, her voice going up as she let her peaceful thoughts go. On second thought, perhaps she had been mistaken on how she felt about him. "You fat assed…goddamn…irksome…galling…infuriating…you could get confused trying to make breakfast cereal…callous…prick…"
"Blonde…imbecilic&# 8230;if you looked up stupid in the dictionary your picture would be there…stubborn…mule-headed…short…squat…dumpy& #8230;flat…"
"You say flat chested and I'm going to floor you." She breathed furiously.
"Hit me with your best shot." He spread his arms as much as he could considering he was tied to her.
"Creep…twit…lecherous…lazy…piece of monkey shit…dickless…"
"Watch your language you empty Odango Atama…below average…unable to find a date…brainless…hopeless…"
"ARE YOU TWO STILL AT IT?" a voice boomed into the elevator.
"My, what a loaded question." Usagi answered with a smirk on her face. She felt rather than saw Mamoru's head jerk around to face her. She could almost see him smile as she turned her sharp tongue on someone else.
"Attention K-Mart shoppers!" a giggling voice said suddenly.
"Minako! That was pointless!" Ami's voice could be heard.
"I've always wanted to say that!" Minako protested.
"Shut up you two!" Haruka's voice snapped suddenly. "They've been in there five hours and they're still fighting!"
"This is the most idiotic thing Minako's ever thought up." Rei agreed. "And there have been some doozies…"
"It's like a plan thought out by ten baboons, but the other nine left leaving only Minako." Makoto added.
"Oh go to hell." Minako said irritably. "This will work. This has to work."
"Minako," Mamoru sighed. "You've played your game, you've had your fun, now let us the hell out of here!"
"Not yet." Minako's voice went suddenly serious. "There is a connection that was SO close to being made a few minutes ago, I felt it as sure as I feel Haruka's hands around my throat."
"Killjoy." Haruka muttered.
"So you can't be let out of there yet, because when it comes to the heart, I know what I'm doing."
"We'll be trapped in here forever." Usagi moaned. "I'm gonna kill him Minako. I'd rather bathe in hot acid then let him touch me, I'd rather poke my eyes out with a pick-axe then look at him and I'd rather rip my throat out with a grappling hook then let him kiss me. For all these things I'm going to scalp you and burn your house to the ground."
"That wasn't very nice Odango,"
"Bite me you scum sucking bottom feeder."
"Come closer and I will."
"Go back to enjoying yourselves!" Minako said cheerfully, interrupting their argument. "We'll check in on you later."
"ARGH!" Usagi screeched. "I can't handle this anymore!"
"Agreed." Mamoru said swiftly. "And I can't handle any more of your screeching. Don't you EVER shut up?"
"What are you going to do about it?" she challenged, realizing the sheer stupidity of that phrase when he pulled her against him.
"Finally." He groaned. "I've thought of nothing but kissing you since the other day when I did. You want to see lecherous? Watch this."
"You sure as hell fooled me then." She snapped.
"I've had to ask my schoolmates for insults just to keep up with you Odango." He confessed.
"Sucks to be you." She retorted.
"I'm going to kiss you now."
"We can't do that." She tried to pull out of his embrace. "Nothing will keep us together. Let me go you repulsive ass!"
"The future doesn't count?"
"The future isn't set."
"Then lets make our own future."
"I'll bite you."
"Kinky."
Those were the last words spoken before he placed one hand a the back of her head and pulled her face to his. Groaning as her lips touched his, she was even sweeter than he remembered, today tasting of apples instead of strawberries. Some unknown scent that was her perfume wafted into his nostrils and he no longer feared the depths of hell because he held an angel in his arms. Tilting her head back, he deepened the kiss, claiming full possession of her mouth. He finally understood how his future self had just smiled at him and told him he would know when time converged at one point. He had cautioned him that the future would never happen if they kept fighting and up until this moment it had seemed that they would follow another path. Even Setsuna admitted as much. But King Endymion had also warned him. "Once you start to love her, you know you'll never stop. She shines like a diamond when she walks into a room, she can charm the stars and hypnotize the moon." He smiled inwardly as he realized his mistake and the best decision he'd ever made. He pulled her closer to him and shut off rational thought.
"You look upset Minako, did they declare dumbness illegal?" Rei questioned idly, glancing at her nails.
"You know I'm getting aggressively dumber listening to you." Minako snapped, taking a page from Usagi's book.
"Is that even possible?"
Minako opened her mouth to retort when she froze, her jaw open and her hand in mid-air. "Behold the rare specimen of the senshi of love, in her natural form with her mouth wide open spewing bad ideas." Rei gestured.
A smile spread across Minako's face as she giggled and raced around the room. "I'm a genius! I'm a genius!" she chanted.
"Why?"
"They bonded! They goddamn well, flipping bonded! Holy mother of Solomon…holy ghost…holy shit! I WAS RIGHT! VICTORY TO ME!!" Minako hollered as she raised her arms in the air like a boxer who'd just won the match. Dancing around the room, she stuck her tongue out at them.
Rei paled and faced Haruka. "We now live in a world where Minako is right." She said in a hushed voice.
"Hold me Michiru, I'm afraid." Haruka winked at her.
"We all are 'Ruka. We all are." Michiru responded.
The first thing Usagi became aware of was that somehow she was lying on the floor, not sitting up. The second thing she became aware of was how comfortable she was. The third thing she became aware of was Mamoru holding her in a vice-like grip, possessiveness in his touch. 'That was one hell of a kiss,' she thought. 'I forgot everything and everyone. I'm lucky I remember my name.' she smiled, raising her free hand to touch her swollen lips. 'I never knew I could feel like this.' She shook her head. 'I wanted to vanish inside his kiss, and now I want him more.' He grunted slightly as she tried to free herself from his arms. "Mine." He murmured against her hair. "You belong to me now and I. Don't. Share. Ever."
Usagi blinked as she realized his shirt was missing. Thinking back she remembered being so desperate to touch him she had ripped it off him, wanting to see the arms that held her. She flushed as she remembered him calling her a hellcat before kissing her senseless again. It had gone no further than that, but it was enough. "Try to resist." She whispered, then shook her head. What the hell was she doing with him?
He sat up, pulling her with him as he searched for his shirt. "So now what do we do Usagi?" he commented. "We can't go back to insulting the hell out of each other, and if you tell me you're not attracted to me then I'll know you're lying because you can't kiss someone like that and not have it mean a damn thing."
Usagi sighed. "I don't know dipwad." She shook her head. "Up until a few hours ago I was convinced I hated you."
"But you told Makoto you loved me."
"I told her I thought you were cute half-wit." She snapped. "Minako is the one who made the brilliant assumption that I loved you."
"Was she wrong?"
"At the time she was."
"And now she's right? Minako was actually right?"
"Don't remind me."
"Say it then goddamn it."
"I can't say those words to you Mamoru." Usagi turned to face him. "Not yet. You've been my greatest enemy, my supreme irritant in life, the utmost antagonizer I know. I can't just go from unbridled hatred to love in a few hours, I'm not that kind of girl."
"If you were I doubt I'd love you as much as I do."
"How do you know you love me? We've always known there was chemistry between us because of the heat of our fights. How do you know this isn't just a run-off of that fighting?"
"Want to find out?"
She shook her head. "I don't know Mamoru. You make me feel things I've never felt before and you scare the bejeezus out of me."
"It's a start."
"Minako!" she raised her voice. "LET ME OUT OF HERE NOW!"
"You got it!" Minako's giggling voice came back.
"Finally." Usagi sighed.
"So what happens next?" Mamoru asked her as the doors slid open.
"This was just a lapse in time." She shook her head. "It didn't happen."
"Are you sure you want to go with that answer."
Usagi drew in a breath and closed her eyes. "Mamoru, next Friday, 10:30 pm, go to the Mixer down on 10th street. I'll give you your answer then."
Minako continued to dance around the room, rejoicing in her knowledge of love. "I am so smart, I am so smart."
"You know Minako compared to you the black plague was a minor discomfort." Haruka moaned. "Please shut up. We've only heard this about eight million times now."
"The rice crispies were right!" Minako giggled. She winked at Mamoru when he walked in - sans Usagi with Motoki by his side. "When's the wedding?'
"There won't be any." He snapped. "What the hell were you thinking Minako? That was a horrible idea!"
"What are you talking about? I felt a bond being forged and you look rumpled enough that I can guess what you were doing."
"It was better to think she hated me and fight with her every day, then know she feel something for me, know she'll avoid me for the time being and not see her at all!" he roared.
"What do you mean?"
"Usagi doesn't know what she's feeling and she can't tell me anything." He eyed her. "Nice going."
Minako shook her head. "It's not supposed to work that way though!"
"Well I guess cereal can't always be right. Usagi doesn't want to talk to you by the way, she's furious as all hell at the lot of you." Mamoru glanced at the senshi. "And I don't blame her."
Motoki leaned over. "How was the kiss?"
Mamoru's lips quirked up in a smile. "There are no words."
"Usagi? No words? Really?" Motoki looked incredulous.
"And now if she has her way she'll never kiss me again." He shook his head. "It's a fine line between love and hate and I have no idea where we stand."
And so endeth this chapter. As I mentioned earlier, I will do as much writing and updating on all my stories as is humanly possible considering that on Friday I leave for Tokyo for a year. I won't be doing any writing at all for about 2 weeks until I get internet hooked up in my new apartment, and then all my entries will be coming to you from Tokyo! Anyone who'd like me to email them about what Tokyo and life in Japan is like please let me know and give me your email! I'm aiming to email as many people as is humanly possible! I WILL be keeping up with my writing and I WILL be adding new stories and updating so fear not, those who like my work! Next chapter…Usagi's secret hobby…Minako's endless gloating…
