Usagi stared out the tinted window of the limousine, watching the buildings pass. Haruka gave a slight "Aha!" Usagi turned to see what her friend was getting into this time and she busted out laughing at the sight that met her eyes. Haruka was sprawled out across the seat, a bottle in each hand. "Eh, Princess, it looks like we've been invited for a drink. What be yer poison?" She asked, adopting a pirate-like accent as she held out a bottle of Rum and a bottle of Whiskey.
Usagi laughed and shook her head. "I don't think Michi-chan is going to be pleased if you showed up smashed, Ruka-chan." She said, reaching to take the bottles before the other girl could make a fool of herself and possibly end up on sleeping on the couch for their three week tour of Japan.
Haruka laughed and held the bottles just out of the smaller blonde's reach. "Come now, princess. This is a cause for celebration. Here we are, back in Japan as famous fashion gurus. When we left, we were mere ignorant paupers, and now we're giants!" she said, taking a big swig of one of the bottles.
Shaking her head and smiling, Usagi snatched the bottle out of Haruka's mouth and took a drink herself. "Now Ruka-chan. I believe I was the only ignorant pauper when we left. You were an accomplished racer and pianist, and Michi-chan an Olympic swimmer and famous violinist. Sets-chan doesn't count cause up till then she had mostly been guarding the Gates, and even little Taru-chan was a genious attending THE most prestigious school in Japan."
Haruka laughed and pulled out another bottle for herself. "And look how far we've fled the beaten path!" She said, taking a big gulp. Usagi shook her head, smiling. What the heck, if Ruka was determined to get drunk, she might as well make the most of it.
Thirty minutes later the limos pulled up to the hotel that the girls would be staying in for the next week as they got ready for the show in Juban. Michiru, Hotaru, and Setsuna exited gracefully and looked around, letting out a sigh of relief as they realized that their destination had been kept secret from the press. Not that they had that much doubt, the last person to leak information was currently working in a button factory where he would remain the rest of his life because no one else would hire him.
Soon after, the second limo pulled up. The door opened and a completely inebriated Haruka exited the limo. "Hiya, mi amour!" She said, swaying over to Michiru. She gave her a big kiss before getting her head slapped by said amour.
"Don't you amour me! What the hell are you thinking, getting drunk like this? What kind of example are you setting for Hota-chan?" Michiru demanded, her hands on her hips.
Haruka hiccupped. "Awe, come on Michi, I'm not the only one. Usa did it to!" She tattled, pointing back to where the driver was helping a very happy Usagi out of the limo and into her chair.
"Oh, hi Michi!" She said happily before busting out into giggles. "Ruka-chan was right, things are soooo much brighter than before. Oh! Look at the pretty lights!" She said, pointing at the lights in the lobby.
Michiru and Setsuna sighed at the pair. Usagi winked at Hotaru and gave a sly grin before allowing her face to go all dreamy again. Hotaru had to trail behind the others as to not give her Auntie away with all of her snickering.
