How are ya Faithful Reader? Been awhile I know. I was on vacation, Spring Break ya know. Anyway,
here we are again. I really hope you enjoyed that last chapter (even though I didn't get many
reviews _ ) and I hope you enjoy this one as well. And for all you Spring Breakers out there,
please be careful, and try not to break any laws (let's just say I got into some stuff down at
Panama City XD) Well, on to the story!
A chance meeting.......
In the early morning hours of a beautiful Sunday, Mizuno Ami lay in the arms of a copper-haired
young man. She rolled over the cotton sheets slightly, and noticed the clock on the bedside table,
"Mmmm....6:30...I better get up, don't want to make a habit out of sleeping in, lest I end up like
Usagi." She sat up slowly, stretched her arms over head, and let out a yawn. She got out of bed and
her bunkmate shivered a bit, missing the warmth of her body. She smiled softly and pulled the sheets
up over his shoulders. "Zoicite..." She brushed his bangs away and kissed his forehead.
Ami walked into the kitchen of Zoicite's apartment, and opened the fridge. It was virtually
empty, except for half a carton of milk and an unopened can of beer. "Hmmm.....I suppose...I need to
go shopping." The blue-haired schoolgirl sighed, "I'll wait for Zoicite to wake first though, *yawn*
it's his job anyway." She went into the living room and curled up on the couch and picked up a random
magazine from a big stack Zoicite had accumulated. 'Hey...this is the latest Sailor V manga...I would
never guess he was into that sorta thing considering his past...' As she flipped through the comic a
still groggy Zoicite stumbled past her into the kitchen. "Zoicite? That you?"
"Mmmmmm...yeah. *yawn* When did you get up?"
"Just a little while ago. We need to go shopping for you today."
"Yeah, I noticed. Hmmm...guess I'll go with milk, too early for beer." The the emerald-eyed ex-
king took the whole carton out and proceeded to chug it all down. When he was finished he wiped his arm
lazily across his mouth and tossed the empty container into the wastebasket. He walked back into the
living room and sat down next to Ami. He looked over her shoulder at what she was reading and laughed
inwardly. He wrapped his arms around her from behind and nuzzled his face in her hair. "Mmmm...when did
you start reading comics, Ami?" She sighed and leaned back into him. Zoicite gently kissed her neck and
ran his fingers through her hair.
"Mmmm....Zoicite..." Ami reached up and twirled her fingers in his copper locks. "it was just the
first thing I picked. Come to think of it, why would YOU have such a thing?"
"Well, I did a lot of wandering around the city, visited a lot of newstands, you know how it is."
"*giggle* No, I don't. Hmm...when do you want to go shopping?"
"Well, we both need showers first, I suppose after that."
"Do I have any clothes here?"
"Yeah, you have a school uniform over here."
"I really don't feel like wearing a school uniform on a Sunday...can't I just borrow some of your
clothes?"
"I suppose. Though they'll be way too big for you," after this remark he broke out in a fit of
laughter, "I believe that's the first time I've ever said that to anyone!" Ami soon began to laugh as well,
"I'm glad I could be a source of amusement for you Zoicite!" Zoicite tightnened his embrace around the small
girl, "You know I couldn't resist. Well, you go first, I still need to wake up a bit. I'll get some clothes
for you as well."
"Alright then." The senshi of water got up and stretched and was soon on her way to Zoicite's bathroom.
When she got there she turned the water on cold and quickly stripped, pausing in front of the mirror for just
a second. 'Is it just me, or am I spending a lot more time here?' She ignored the errant thought and immersed
herself in the icy-cold water.
Less than ten minutes later she heard a knocking on the door, "Ami? I got your clothes."
"Okay! Set them on the counter please." Zoicite slipped inside and set the folded clothes on the counter
silently. He stared for a second at Ami's frame, shadowed by the shower screen. A smile tugged at his lips and
he went out the door without a sound. Ami waited until she was sure she had left before exiting the shower.
She grabbed a towel off the rack and began to dry herself. After she had finished, she went over to the counter
and inspected the clothes Zoicite had left her. They were a light blue T-shirt, and a pair of shorts she couldn't
imagine any male wearing. They were obscenely short for one thing, or at least they would be on Zoicite, they would
probably fit her just fine, and they were also baby blue, to match the shirt. She resisted the urge to laugh and
slipped them on.
After she was dressed, she left the bathroom and went back to the living room and sat beside Zoicite, who
appeared to be reading the newspaper. She leaned over slightly and whispered in his ear, "Aren't yougoing to take
a shower?" He leaned back and kissed her cheek. She smiled as he got up and walked off torwards the bathroom. "If
only he were always so agreeable."
"I heard that." Ami slightly and she began to peruse the article.giggled and picked up the newspaper he had
dropped. The headline story was about the recent rise of the crime rate in the city. She flipped through it nonchalantly
until she came across an article that caught her attention. "Sailor Senshi: Just another urban myth?" Her eyebrows rose
and she perused the story. It was mostly garbage, street rumors and the like, but it was the photos that got her attention.
They were all amazingly clear photographs of the Senshi involved in some battle. A couple of pictures featured her exclusively
one zoomed in on her face, grimacing in the heat of battle, and another showing her posing and about to make a speech. She
blushed slightly and looked at the credits, "Pictures by Rumiko Tsukinoshi". She put down the paper when she felt two
arms wrap around her. "Mmm....Zoicite..."
Zoicite looked over her shoulder at the discarded newspaper, "I see you saw that article, it's trash of course,
but those pictures are something else, ne?" Ami looked at him puzzled and nodded. "Those pictures were takne by a youma you
know." Ami's eyes widened at the remark, he noticed and went on, "Her name is Bandana, Rumiko Tsukinoshi is one of her many
pseudonyms."
"Really..."
"Yep, she specializes in photography. And espionage. She's quite good actually." Zoicite wrapped up the petite girl and
kissed her cheek. "It looks like she caught your good side, wouldn't you say?" Ami looked up at him and smiled. She reached up
and ruffled his hair. "I suppose she did. Well? Do you want to go sometime today?"
Zoicite looked at her incredulously, "I suppose so...."
"Then don't you think we should get up?" The copper-haired ex-king sighed and slowly stood up, bringing Ami with him.
"What do you humans look for when you shop? I don't really know anything you buy at a grocery store." Ami smiled and kissed the
young soldier gently. "You just let me take care of it. All you have to do is bring the money."
"You humans sure do use money for a lot of things, why don't you just divide everything up so you can all have equal
amounts of food."
"It's been tried before Zoicite, it never works. Humanity's not big on the sharing you know." Ami slipped on her shoes and
walked out the front door, with Zoicite trailing closely behind. The store they were heading to was just a few blocks down the road
and pretty much deserted that early in the morning. Ami motioned for Zoicite to grab a shopping basket and headed inside.
They wandered around for awhile, Ami pointing out to Zoicite the various varieties of products available and what they are for.
Zoicite for the most part nodded politely and agreed with everything she said. He let her pick out everything he needed and just
hoped for the best. After much wandering around they finally managed to get everything he needed and headed torwards the checkout
counter.
After paying what he thought was a ridiculously high price, they left the store and headed back to the apartment. Once they
were there Zoicite's fiest impulse was to toss everything into the fridge randomly, but Ami gave him a long speech about the value
of organizing and he simply let her put everything away. Then she fixed breakfast for them and afterwards they watched the morning
news reports together. It was around 10:30 a.m. when they got the call. Zoicite picked it up, "Hello?"
"Zoicite?"
"The one and only, who's this?"
"I'm Ami's friend, Minako."
"Minako...? Ah yes, the closet lesbian." Ami blushed profusely at this remark.
"WHAT!!!???"
"That's what you are right?"
"NO!! Most certainly not! Where would you get a horrible idea like that?!"
"Ami, well technically it was it was your buddy Makoto who told her SHE thought you were a closet lesbian."
"MAKOTO???!!! UGH! I'm going to kill her!!"
"Well, have you ever really thought about it?"
"No...but...Oh god...That's why she's been so agitated around me lately, she thought I was hitting on her!"
"Well, WERE you hitting on her?"
"What kind of idiotic question is that!? OF COURSE I was hitting on her!"
"Huh?! You weren't supposed to say that..."
"No I suppose I wasn't. It IS easy to get you off topic isn't it?"
"Hey-"
"Come to the Hikawa shrine in about an hour okay? And bring Ami with you."
~click~
Zoicite looked over at Ami, "Did you hear that?" Ami nodded and said, "Yes, she was kinda yelling....do you think she was being
serious about the lesbian thing?"
"Probably not but....who knows with YOUR friends!"
........................
Weeelll. Another chapter come and gone. I hope you enjoyed it. And ,IS Mina a closet lesbian? I dun know, what do YOU think?
Seriously now, d'ya people think I should leave her straight or what? It won't effect the outcome of the story, I just thought
it would be nice to have a little audience interaction. SO! Tell me what ya think, about Minako, about the fic as a whole so far,
I WANNA know! Sooo....Lay it on me! Via con Dios!
