Mina, Rei, Lita, and Ami laid their blankets out by Crystal Lake. Mina studied the waters, leaning her chin on her legs that were pulled up to her body. The water was so clear you could see to the bottom. The pond, not really a lake contrary to it's name, was relatively small, but a popular place for the girls to goof off.

Lita looked over at Mina, and saw the sad look in her eyes. "Mina, what's wrong?

Mina looked up, snapping out of her reverie. "Hm? What?"

"I asked what's wrong? You're not your self today," the girl asked, taking off her white tank top and tossing it aside, revealing her emerald bikini underneath.

"I'm sorry. Just feeling kinda down."

"Boy troubles?" Rei asked, laying down in her blood red bikini that was held on by thin pieces of string.

"More like men troubles, Rei." Mina sighed and slipped off her white tank dress, revealing her creamy yellow bikini. The top boosted up her breasts and made them look fuller. The bottoms were tied on at the sides.

"Well...?" Rei asked expectantly.

Mina just raised an eyebrow at them.

"Aren't you gonna tell us?" Lita whined.

Mina laughed. She knew she was making them suffer and was enjoying every moment of it. "Well...let's just say that Prince Marron isn't the one for me."

Mina saw Rei and Lita start to ask her more questions, when Ami spoke up for her. "Mina is entitled to her right of privacy. All we need to do now is find another man for her," Ami finished with a wink. She was laying on her stomach in a pale blue bikini, reading one of her favorite novels.

Mina gawked at Ami. "And here I thought you were on my side!" Mina exclaimed.

The girls just laughed as Rei and Lita started suggesting possible lovers for Mina. Mina might have been laughing on the outside, but on the inside she was being torn apart. She knew that the only one she wanted was Malachite. The only problem was that he only wanted sex.

"What about General Malachite?" Rei suggested, watching Mina's head snap up.

"What?"

"You heard me," Rei said. "We've all seen the tension between you two. He-"

"I don't think so. That man is the type that only wants to get laid, not have a relationship."

"Oh?" Rei asked. "And how do you know this?"

Mina was spared having to answer her as three men ran past them and dove into the water. Mina looked up to see General Jedite, Nephrite, and Zoicite splashing around in the water like little boys.

Happy that the attention was no longer on her as Rei and Lita started shouting at them and Ami went back to her book, Mina laid down on her back and closed her eyes.

Malachite trailed after his Generals, wearing khaki shorts and a white short sleeve shirt that went unbuttoned, allowing his chest and stomach to brown a little more. He saw the girls laying out by the pond, a twinge of pain going through his heart when he saw Mina laying out there.

He decided that it was now or never. He walked over to the woman and stood over her. Apparently noticing that there was a shadow over her, Mina opened her eyes and examined the man in front of her. Malachite saw the passion in her eyes for a quick moment before she hid it.

"Princess Minako, may I have a moment please?" he asked her.

"What do you wish to talk about?"

"Something that I do not wish others to hear, now will you please come with me?"

Sighing, she stood up. She grabbed a sheer skirt and wrapped it around her waist, tying it in a knot on one side. "Lead the way," came her neutral reply.

Mina followed Malachite around the lake, and to the other side where they would be hidden by the bushes. "What is so important, General, that you had to tell me on my day off?"

"I wanted to apologize-"

"Not again. I don't think that I can take anymore apologies." Mina leaned back against a tree.

"Damn it Mina, why won't you ever listen to me?" he demanded.

"Because I know what you want and you're not getting it."

"What do I want?"

Mina opened her mouth to say something, but nothing came out. She just stood there and looked at him, a helpless look on her face. She kicked herself. She knew exactly what he wanted and she needed to let him know.

She opened her mouth to speak again, but found Malachite's mouth covering hers instead. She lifted her hands to push him away, but realized that she didn't want to. She allowed his tongue to enter her mouth as she kissed him back. She arched her body into his, reveling in his muscles against her skin. She felt his hand glide up her spine before settling on her neck. His other arm came around and encircled her waist, pulling her even closer to him.

Malachite didn't know how much longer he could maintain his self control. He wanted nothing more than to ravage her right here and now. The only thing that was holding him back was his doubt of her feelings for him. With this thought, he pulled away from her.

Her lips were swollen from his kisses and her chest was heaving. Her cheeks were a pale shade of red. She looked at him with passion filled eyes. In that moment he knew that she truly wanted him. Before he could do anything else, that passion was replaced with rage.

"How dare you," she spit at him. "I am not something you can toy with, General. I am not your little slut that you can call upon when you need a piece of ass."

Malachite was taken aback by her words. "Mina, that's not-"

"Shut up!" she screamed, the tears starting to stream down her face. "I will not be used," she whimpered.

Malachite instinctively wrapped his arms around her, stroking her hair. He felt her bury her face in his chest and cry. "Mina, I never meant for you to feel that way."

She stepped back from him, tears still running down her cheeks. "Then why did you leave me after our night together? I felt like you had gotten what you wanted from me and that was it."

"I am so sorry, I didn't mean for any of that to happen. If I could take it all back, I would-"

"Well, I wouldn't!"

Malachite was taken aback at her words. Her eyes flared with an emotion that Malachite was trying to deny. Just admit it, he told himself. Tell her. Malachite sighed. "I love you, Mina."

Mina looked up at him, the shock clearly written on her face. "You what?" she asked him. Here he was, the perfect man, telling her that he loved her. She didn't know what to do.

"I love you," he said again, taking a step towards her.

"I love you, too," she said, flinging herself into his arms. Malachite pulled her away far enough to plant his lips firmly on hers.

Before they could get far, they heard a rustling in the bushes. They broke apart quickly.

"Caught you red handed," Rei said as her and Lita stepped from behind a nearby tree. The other three Generals stood up from behind the bushes, smiles on their faces. Their smiles grew even bigger when Malachite and Mina both blushed.

Jedite quickly scooped Mina up and ran around the bushes, her feet kicking in protest. He then proceeded to drop her in the water.

Mina looked up from the water to see Malachite being shoved by the other two Generals into the pond beside her.

"I think you both could use a cold bath," Rei said. The others started laughing.

That's when Mina and Malachite wrestled the rest of them into the lake.

Mina walked to her room, Malachite's kisses still lingering on her lips. They had parted at the end of the hallway, and she had regretfully let him go to his room to dry off and clean up. She opened her door and went in her room, closing it softly behind her. A huge smile escaped her lips as she turned around and slid to the floor.

A moment later, Mina heard a knock on her door. Still in her towel and slightly wet, she stood up and opened it. She had but a moment to recognize Malachite before he grabbed her face and kissed her with a passion she was afraid of. He backed her into the room, closing the door after they were both in.

Mina pushed away from him. "I thought you were going to change?" she asked. Malachite was still in his wet clothes.

"I'd rather be with you," he said before kissing her again.

Mina allowed her towel to be unwrapped from her as she slipped Malachite's shirt off. He backed her up until she bumped into the bed. They fell on the bed together in a tangle of limbs and wet clothes.

Malachite heard a moan escape Mina's lips as his tongue entered her mouth. His hand caressed up and down her side before resting on her breast. He rubbed his thumb lightly over her nipple, making her body arch into his. She allowed him to reach around and untie her top and toss it across the room. He moved down, taking one of her nipples in his mouth. Another moan escaped her lips, making him harder than he ever thought he could be.

Mina felt Malachite's other hand move down her belly and into her bikini bottoms. As he gently touched her, she thought she would burst. As one of his fingers entered her, she inhaled sharply. He moved in and out of her, causing her to moan loudly. She didn't know if she could take it anymore. "Oh God Malachite, take me now!" she moaned loudly.

She reached down and undid his pants, carelessly tossing them across the room. She lifted up and allowed Malachite to slide her bikini bottoms off.

Malachite laid on top of her, pressing into her slightly. He moved into her slowly, then pulled back out. He did that several times, before her legs wrapped around him and pulled him all the way inside her. She let out a loud moan and began to pump her hips.

Malachite thrust in and out of her, his lust for her driving him mad. She responded to his every touch, his every move. Before he knew what was happening, she had twisted so that she was on top of him. Malachite looked up at the Goddess straddling him. The sight of her moving up and down, the sweat glistening off her breasts made him want to finish inside her immediately. But he held it back with all the self control he could muster.

Mina gasped for air even more as Malachite's hand went up to her breasts, taking one in each hand and teasing the nipple. She was on the verge of going over the edge. And a minute later, she did, taking him with her.

She laid down on top of him, resting her head on his chest. She could hear his heart pounding and his blood rushing, just like her own. She raised her head and looked into his eyes. She saw nothing but love there and she smiled.

"What?" he asked as Mina squirmed on top of him. Malachite raised an eyebrow. "Ready to go again?"
