#1: Rainy Days:
Makoto loved it when stormed. She was surrounded by her element and some hidden part of her soul would always come out to play, brightening up the room. He loved it when it stormed, too. It was his excuse to cuddle up with Makoto, wherever and whenever. Now that he and Makoto were finally reunited had and overcome their past trials, he would take a good cuddle wherever and whenever.
Nephrite jumped up to answer the phone as it began ringing. He rolled his eyes when he checked the caller ID.
"What can I do for you Kunzite," he joked. "Makoto is on her way over, so make it fast."
"So I guess you are not going to come hang out with Zoisite and I?" He asked, pretending to sound hurt.
"You guess right," Nephrite replied. "What is Minako doing today?"
"She is taking Ami shopping. Ami needs a graduation dress to wear underneath her robes," Kunzite responded.
"Oh Kunzite, Zoisite is beeping in on the other line, I'll just talk to you later?" Nephrite asked.
"Sure, you kids don't get into too much trouble," Kunzite chided, hanging up. Nephrite switched over to the other line.
"Yes?" he greeted Zoisite.
"Hello to you, too. I was wondering if you wanted to come bum around with Kunzite and I today. Ami stole Minako for some shopping," he said.
"Yeah, Kunzite just called to ask me the same thing. Fortunately, Makoto and I have plans."
"Sure…"
"Zoisite? Can you hold that thought, Makoto is at the door," Nephrite interrupted him. He opened the door and found his Makoto very much alive from the influence of her element. He reached out and pulled her into a kiss.
"Ewww, kids, I'm still here!" They heard Zoisite yell through the phone. Nephrite chuckled and raised the phone back to his ear.
"Sorry, Makoto wanted to say hello," he said, no hint of apology in his voice.
"Well, I'll let you get right to your wild sexcapades with your sex goddess," Zoisite said slyly.
"She's not here for wild sexcapades, but she is my sex goddess," Nephrite repeated. Makoto raised her eyebrow at that. Nephrite motioned for her to come into the apartment as he hung up with Zoisite.
"Where were we?" he murmured, grabbing her waist and pulling her back in.
"Not here for sexcapades?" she asked, demurely looking into his eyes. "Well, if that is how you feel…" They were interrupted by the phone ringing. Nephrite looked down at the phone's caller ID and sighed. His eyes pleaded for Makoto to give him a minute and she nodded.
"Hello?" he asked irritated.
"Why can't you come hang out with the guys and I? They just called and said that you were busy. It's like a perfect afternoon for some guy time!" Jadeite said.
"Because, I am busy, as you say," Nephrite said. "Give the boys my sincerest regrets that Minako and Ami are shopping, and as for you, my deepest regrets that they dragged you into their moping about. Now, goodbye," Nephrite said as he hung up the phone.
"Sorry about that," he said, lifting Makoto up for a hug.
"That's ok, I'm used to how dependent on each other you guys are," she said sweetly. "Its actually really cute, and a huge turn on…"
