Sailor Moon Love: Senshi Chapter 10: Makoto and Usagi, a sailor moon fanfic

Makoto and Usagi

The reason: Usagi looks so much like Minako that at first Makoto would be attracted to Usagi. Makoto is always shown as being very protective over Usagi and is the first one ready to fight. Usagi loves Makoto's cooking and was the first to look past Makoto's reputation to befriend her.

Usagi looked at Makoto as she stood over Minako's grave. "We all loved her Mako-chan," Usagi said quietly coming up behind the tall girl. "Remember we love you too," Usagi placed a hand on Makoto's arm as Makoto wipes her tears away. "Remember I love you." Makoto looked at Usagi. "No don't say anything. Grieve for Minako first." Usagi walked away leaving Makoto and Minako alone.

Months had past since Minako's death and Makoto had locked herself in her apartment refusing to go to work at her restaurant, The Green Lighting. The girls had tried to talk to her but she would not answer the door, return their calls, emails or texts. Usagi could not take seeing her special person waste away like she was. Usagi had always told herself the only thing she wanted was Makoto to be happy and if that was Minako then she was happy for them. Now Minako was gone so Usagi wanted to see Makoto smile again and she wanted to be the one who made her smile.

Usagi knocked on Makoto's door. "Mako-chan open up or I will kick the door down," Usagi told her.

Makoto was surprised at Usagi's forcefulness. "Usa I really don't feel like company right now," Makoto leaned again the door.

"I am not going any where until you let me in," Usagi told her. "Please Mako-chan. I know you are hurting but Minako would not want you like this. Please let me in"

Makoto sighed and opened the door. Usagi was surprised by what she saw. Makoto's normally spotless apartment looked like Usagi from her middle school days had lived there. Noticing Makoto's puffy eyes and worn out look Usagi immediately drew the taller girl into a hug.

"Do you really love me Usa?" Makoto whispered.

"Yes Mako-chan," Usagi answered. "I have for a long time now."

"Just stay with me tonight please," Makoto told Usagi. She nodded as they sunk to the floor still holding on to each other. "Every time I try to do something I think about her and how she is never coming back."

"Minako knew you loved her," Usagi said. "The thing she loved the most was your smile. We all want to see you smile again." Usagi took a deep breath and looked at Makoto, "I want to see you smile again."

Makoto gave a weak smile as she cupped Usagi's chin in her hand. Slowly Makoto leaned down and embraced Usagi in a kiss. "I can try," she whispered breaking the kiss.

"I will be here," Usagi replied. "We will go at your pace."

"Thank you," Makoto answered. "Tell the others I am sorry"

Usagi shook her head. "You can tell them tonight when we all go to dinner. No you will not back out. I said we would take it slow with you and me but you have to get out of this apartment and start taking control of your life again. The Green Lighting needs the best chef in Tokyo back."

"Where are we going Usa?" Makoto asked.

"You will see," answered Usagi grinning.

"Why are we here?" Makoto asked as they walked up to their friends who were waiting for them outside The Green Lighting.

"One they need their head chef back," Usagi told her, "and two you need to see for yourself how bad they need you back." Makoto did not the lengths her friends had gone to pull their friend out of her depression. They walked in without having to wait but what shocked Makoto more was when they got inside the normally pack restaurant was empty except for a one couple.

As they left the man looked at Makoto and the girls. "I would go somewhere else. The food and service is horrible."

"What?" Makoto asked him stunned but the couple had already left.

"Come Mako-chan," Ami said grabbing her arm and pulling her toward a table. "Let's sit down and order."

It took over thirty minutes for a waiter to come to their table. Makoto was steaming by that point which was the first emotion other than despair she had shown since Minako had died. "Are you going to order?" the girl asked lazily.

"How can we order when we never got menus?" Makoto almost yelled.

"Not my problem" the waitress said walking away.

"Someone get me her name," Makoto fumed. "She is getting fired when I come back."

"So boss," Motoki said coming out from the kitchen with the rest of the staff. "Does that mean you are back?"

"Damn right I am back. I can't believe you let them happen. I worked so hard to get this place up and running," Makoto yelled at Motoki.

"Mako-chan don't blame the," Usagi said trying not to laugh. "It is not their fault. It was our idea."

"You idea?" she asked.

"Well," Ami answered, "actually it was my idea."

"The couple that left when we came in was Asanuma and Toki's sister," Rei told Makoto.

"We closed about 2pm," Motoki said. "So the place would be dead when you got here." Then he got serious. "Since you have bee gone we have not been able to pull in the amount of people as before. Things have been good but it is starting to get tight."

Makoto put her arm around Usagi. "You guys have shown me I have mourned Minako long enough. It is time I started living again." Then she sat back down. "Right now we are customers so Toki get us some menus. Then be prepared to work tomorrow like you never have bee. We will get the crowds back and the people will be begging to get in here." Motoki smiled and nodded. He knew they were in for it when she got that look in her eye.

"Usagi you have been good for her these past months," Motoki told her. "You have always loved her and I am glad you are happy too."

"You are just glad you still have a job Toki," Usagi laughed.

"Well that too," he grinned as they watched Makoto fly around the kitchen flipping, stirring, shaking dishes and yelling orders. "How is it going with the two of you?"

"Good but slow," Usagi replied truthfully. "I have waited for this for so long I can wait a little longer. I do not want to rush her."

"Hey," Makoto came over and kissed Usagi.

"Hey," she replied kissing her back. "I will see you at home."

"Okay. I am not staying late tonight," Makoto told her girlfriend with a wink.

"I know your birthday is not until tomorrow and I am taking you to dinner but I wanted to give you your present a day early Usa," Makoto said kissing Usagi's neck.

"What?" Usagi breathed knowing they never went to far. Sometimes she wanted to cry in frustration but she was giving Makoto the time she needed. She was not going to think about that now. Usagi really did not want to get into a heated discussion with her conscious again.

"Me," Makoto whispered in her ear as she playfully bit Usagi's neck.

"Are you sure?" Usagi asked praying this was not another dream, one which she had had so many times before.

"Yes," Makoto replied. "I want to make love to you and I want you to make love to me."

Usagi wrapped her arms around Makoto's neck pulling the brunette into a deep kiss. Usagi unbuttoned Makoto's shirt to reveal her generous breast trapped within her bra. As the battle for dominance began again Makoto pulled Usagi's shirt over her head throwing it to the floor. Usagi pulled the front zipper on Makoto's sports bra freeing the taller woman's breast. She grinned as she leaned in on the taller woman wrapping her hands around Makoto's back pressing her chest closer.

"Usa," Makoto breathed arching her back as Usagi teased her breast with her tender nipples. As Usagi squeezed her breast she gripped the blonde's hair. Makoto pushed Usagi on her back tearing her bra off. "My turn," Makoto grinned as she ravaged the blonde's breast.

"Mako," Usagi moaned pushing her lover into her chest. "I want you." Makoto placed a trail of kisses down Usagi's stomach. When she got to Usagi's pants she placed kissed on the fabric slowly but hard enough to tease the blonde. Makoto slowly pulled the zippered down on Usagi's pants revealing soft pink panties. She knew she was driving her girlfriend crazy but she loved making her squirm. "Now," Usagi said trying to push her pants off.

"Be patient," Makoto purred. Hearing Usagi whimper she quickly took off Usagi's pants leaving Usagi lying on her bed in only her pink panties. "What should we do with these?" she asked running a hand lightly over her panties causing Usagi to whimper again. Makoto grabbed her girlfriend roughly pressing the fabric slightly inside her and held it.

"Please," Usagi whispered.

"Beg," Makoto demanded.

"Please take me now," Usagi said. "I am going crazy."

Makoto smiled and slipped Usagi's panties off touching Usagi as much as possible causing the girl to squirm. "Do you really want this?"

"Yes," Usagi breathed. "Mako," Usagi screamed arching her back as her lover drove her to the edge, "please don't stop."

Makoto kept changing her pace so Usagi would never reach her peak until Makoto was ready for her to. Makoto stopped and looked at Usagi. "You like?"

"Yes," Usagi's voice was deep with passion. "Please let me.."

Usagi did not get a chance to finish her sentence as Makoto went back to work. Makoto slowed her pace as she felt Usagi's back arch again and she started to shake. Once Usagi's body quit trembling Makoto looked at Usagi and kissed up her stomach, "I hope that was okay."

"Amazing," Usagi whispered kissing Makoto. The two laid in each others arms for awhile before Usagi kissed Makoto long and deep. "My turn," she whispered sexily.

Usagi climbed on her girlfriend grinding as they made out. She smiled as she ripped Makoto's jeans off revealing green boy short panties. "Wonder why they are called boy shorts? No straight guy would wear them," she thought. "Focus!" her brain yelled at her causing her to giggle. Usagi slid Makoto's panties off before lying back on top of her taking her into another deep kiss as she hand slid between Makoto's legs. As their bodies rocked together Usagi curled her fingertips causing Makoto to shiver. Once she found Makoto's spot she held her ginger there causing Makoto's back to arch.

"Usa," Makoto moaned digging her nails into Usagi's back slightly drawing blood. Makoto's moans of pleasure caused her to speed up her motions. "Oh Usa!" she screamed. "Don't stop! I don't know where you learned this but it feels… Makoto was cut off as a wave of pleasure rolled over her body causing her to shake. Breathing hard Makoto clutched Usagi. Just as Makoto began to relax Usagi flicked her finger and Makoto convulsed again. Usagi crawled beside Makoto and they both feel asleep.

Usagi woke in the middle of the night to Makoto talking in her sleep. Usagi smiled and snuggled closer to her girlfriend.

Makoto felt Usagi near her and pulled her closer. Her next word brought tears to Usagi's eyes. As Makoto pulled Usagi closer she whispered, "Minako."

"You only love me because I remind you of her right?" Usagi asked Makoto.

Makoto bowed her head and would not look at Usagi. She stood strong refusing to cry. "Thank you Mako-chan," Usagi whispered.

"For what," Makoto asked.

"For loving me as long as you did," Usagi replied walking out the door.

"Usagi wait," Makoto yelled running after her. "It was true in the beginning yes but I have fallen in love with you now," she said pulling her from the curb.

"Really," Usagi asked through her tears.

"Really," Makoto told her wrapping her arms around the smaller girls as they kissed.

"But you said Minako's name in your sleep," Usagi told her shakily.

"Minako was in my dream," Makoto answered. "She told me it was time for me to let her go and to move on," Makoto replied. "I love you Usa."

"I love you too Mako," Usagi responded.

ALTERNATE ENDING

"Usagi wait," Makoto yelled running after her.

Usagi was not paying attention to where she was going. Her heart broken and her eyes blinded by her tears. She did not see the headlights or hear the blaring of the horn until seconds before she felt metal collide with her skin. Usagi could feel the blood leaving her body. The impact had twisted her so she faced the apartment building she had just left. The last thing she saw was Makoto screaming falling to the ground. "Mako-chan," Usagi whispered before her lungs filled with blood and her eyes closed for the final time.

Makoto ran out of the apartment building too late to catch up with Usagi but just in time to see the car collide with her sending her broken body flying. "Usagi," Makoto screamed as she fell to the ground her legs not having the strength to hold her up. "First my parents, then Minako, and now you," she whispered. "Why does everyone I love leave me?" Makoto's brain shut down from then on. She never remembered picking herself up off the ground as the crowd gathered and walked back to her apartment. Nor did she remember taking her father's gun from the drawer, loading it, and pulling the trigger. When she opened her eyes her parents, Minako and Usagi all stood before her. They all embraced her happy to see her again. "Finally I am happy," Makoto thought as a smiled danced across her face.

This was inspired by Dark Shadows 01 fanfic the Crawling. In Shadows' author notes she/he said "I looked at Makoto in a whole new light." For some reason that made me think of Makoto and Usagi with Usagi saying "You only love me because I remind you of her."

The Green Lighting restaurant that was mentioned in the Michiru and Ami fic was originally created for this story. I started writing the Michiru and Ami fic first but then got inspired to work on this on and finished this first. I changed relationships around but in both stories Makoto owns and runs the restuarant.
