Chapter 8
He WHAT!
When Makoto woke, faces were around her, staring with concern. "Are you alright?" Rei asked, shifting a little in her spot. Makoto nodded her head as she moved to sit up. "I think… something is very wrong." She said finally, after a few moments of silence.
Makoto's hair was a mess, having tossed and turned throughout the afternoon, Yet again having the same occurring dream… one to which she could never forget...
They kissed like they have been parted for a long time now, but it had only been a week. Everyone knew that Endymion's generals had to have one week out of a month off for training, and training only.
His tongue penetrated her lips as they kissed deeper, his arms wrapped tightly around her slender figure as he tasted her sweet lips. Makoto was in bliss. She kissed him back lovingly, her hands groping and stroking his muscle bound back lovingly.
When the kiss ended, they still held tightly to one another, until Nephlite stepped back, dropping his hands to his sides, looking her over.
Makoto blinked lightly, tilting her head. "What's wrong, Neph? Did I do something to make you upset with me?" she asked a bit worryingly, But he only shook his head with a chuckle. "Then what is it?" she asked.
Nephlite smiled softly and took her gloved hand lightly, planting a small kiss upon her palm. "Later, my love, you must wait." He leaned back in and kissed her lightly with affection as her expression of worry changed into that of cute pouting. "Why? What for?" Nephlite chuckled once again. "You will see soon enough, dear."
Nephlite then took her to the gardens and they talked about the past week and what they had been doing. Recently, Makoto had just learned how to make and Earth's recipe, in which the cook had thought her how to make and she had wanted to try it out on Neph. Nephlite nodded and smiled as he let her ramble on and on about different things that had happened to her and her friends.
"Hello? Neph? You in there?"
Nephlite blinked and looked into the shining green eyes of his lover. "Yes?" Makoto only laughed and shook her head. "I only asked you how your week went, and what on Jupiter are you thinking about?"
"Oh nothing really. We sparred agenst each other and I kicked Zoicite's ass majorly. He is such a wuss. Nephlite laughed.
"You shouldn't pick on him so much. He will come back to get you one of these days!"
Nephlite stopped and turned to face her silently. "Mako…?"
Once again caught on surprise, he was good at that; she smiled to him, pondering on what he could want. "Yes dear?" Nephlite got onto one knee, reaching into his uniform pocket and brought out a little green box with a pink ribbon around it.
Makoto's eyes grew wide with her gasp. With trembling hands she took the box and untied the ribbon, the proceeded to open the box. Inside was a small shining emerald with diamonds encircling it, on a white gold band.
"Makoto, My love and the princess of Jupiter... Will you marry me?"
Nephlite held his breath, watching as all her emotions washed and showed on her face. When she didn't answer right away, he grew a bit nerves.
"I will Neph. I will." She cried as Nephlite stood and put the ring onto her finger gently, she then hugging her tightly.
"I will always come to get you if we ever part. You will always be mine."
"I know Neph. I know." Makoto replied, kissing him lovingly.
"Makoto! Stop day-dreaming! What do you mean that something is wrong?" Luna asked, pawing at Makoto's face."
Makoto glanced at the little black cat, as well as her friends.
"I… I think he is coming to bring me to the Dark side… as his bride…"
The scout's eyes grew and their mouths hung open…
"…..WHAT!"
Well, I know that it is short, but I hope that it somewhat helped you to relieve all that flam mail that you might have been wanting to send me for not updating any. I am currently working on the next chapter and I will try to get it up way sooner than I did this one. Have a safe spring everyone and I hope to see every one of your comments when I go to post this chapter up. Hmm...what else shall I do? -scuttles away, pondering-
