~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~------------------------~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Part 21: The Right Time...
~Minato Hospital; Hallway~

Rei and Serena are standing in a hall, opposite the one with the door to Naomi's room, locked in a very deep kiss. Rei's right hand starts creeping up Serena's left thigh and under the girl's pink dress, toward her 'private' part.

"Rei..." Serena manages to say, as her and Rei's kiss breaks and the raven-haired girl begins kissing her neck.

"Hmmm?" is Rei's response as she uses her left hand to push the strap off Serena's right shoulder and she moves her kisses to the now-exposed area.

"Um, *mmm*," Serena says, flinching slightly as the fingers of Rei's right hand brush against her vagina, through the moist fabric of her panties, "Could we... *mmm*, maybe, find a more private... uh, place. *mmmm* P-people are... are staring."

Rei halts her kisses momentarily, "Let them." she replies, before returning to her kisses on Serena's exposed right shoulder.

"C'mon, Rei." Serena persists, pushing herself back, slightly. The action causes Rei to mumble her reluctance to stop but, doesn't even think about forcing Serena.

The blonde odango-atama then proceeds to lead Rei to an un-occupied room and opens the door. The two enter the room and, not more than a second after the door closes, lock one another's lips in another passionate kiss. While they probe each other's mouths with their tongues, they begin to sub-consciously undress one another. Serena fumbles with the button of Rei's blue bike-shorts and, once done, she un-does the zipper and pushes the shorts down several inches. Rei kicks off her red pumps and rocks her hips slightly, causing her shorts to fall to the floor, revealing her red-lace panties. The raven-haired priestess reaches her arms around Serena unzips the odango's dress. The dress falls to floor and rests around Serena's feet, leaving Serena in just her white bra and slightly damp panties(oh yeah, and her shoes).

The two move in the direction of Serena's back, toward the bed, without breaking the kiss. When they reach the bed, Rei takes hold of Serena's thighs and lifts her onto it. Rei finally breaks the kiss and Serena grabs the hem of the priestess' blouse and pulls it up, and off, over the raven-haired girl's head. Rei gently pushes Serena back til the blonde's lying on the bed, she then leans down and kisses the princess' lips, briefly, then places a kiss on the left side of her neck, then another between her neck and left shoulder. Meanwhile, Serena cups Rei's bare breasts in her hands and begins caressing them. She pinches the raven-haired girl's hard nipples and pulls at them slightly with her index-fingers and thumbs, receiving a moan from Rei.

As Rei's kisses continue, her right hand drifts down Serena's abdomen and under her panties, but Serena grabs her forearm with her right hand.

"R-Rei... s-stop, please."

Rei immediately stops what she's doing and moves her gaze up to meet Serena's concerned blue eyes. "Oh! I'm sorry, Serena. I'm moving too fast, huh? I jus--"

Serena cuts her off, with the index-finger of her other hand, "N-no, It's not that... I'm ready. It's just that... I don't want to hurt you, Rei."

Rei pulls her right hand up and uses it to move the blonde's finger away from her lips, kissing it before-hand, "You're so sweet to worry about me, Serena." she replies, "But, You don't need to... one touch filled with love can erase a lifetime of painful experiences."

"Are you sure?" asks the princess, still a little worried.

"Of course." Rei replies, "But, Do *you* want to go through with this?"

Serena nods and Rei asks her the same question.

"Are you sure, Serena?" the priestess asks, "I mean, You're so pure and untouched, and... perfect. Are you sure you want to be with me?"

The blonde replies by pulling the other girl up, to bring their faces close, and kisses her lips. Serena breaks away and says, "You're always so hard on yourself, Rei. There's nothing wrong with you! To me, *You're* perfect!"

Rei smiles, as she knows that's all that really matters, no other's opinion makes any difference... only that of one's true love. "Shall we continue, then?" she asks, playfully.

Serena smiles and nods, "I think we should."

Rei kisses the odango's lips once more before moving back down, pausing at the other girl's chest, placing a kiss in the center. Rei then undoes the hook of Serena's bra(it's in the front), and uses her hands to push the two sides off, revealing the blonde's lovely breasts and nipples. The priestess leans in and places a kiss on the left breast, to the right of the nipple. She then moves over to the nipple and lightly brushes her tongue against it, causing it to stiffen and causing Serena's body to jerk slightly one time. Rei can tell by the reaction that Serena had never even come close to *being* with someone before.

The priestess begins slowly rolling the left nipple around with her tongue, causing Serena to moan lowly and slightly squirm from the action. Rei then kisses the nipple and moves her attention to the right breast and nipple. She runs her tongue around the nipple and then takes the entire bud into her mouth, suckling it while continuing to caress it with her tongue inside her mouth. The priestess then pulls at the now hard nipple with her lips. Serena continues moaning with each ministration of her nipples.

Rei finally begins working her way further down the other girl's torso, kissing her way down toward her goal. The priestess reaches Serena's damp white panties and brushes the back of her right hand against the dampness causing Serena to jerk again. Rei reaches her arms under and around the girl's legs, and grips the sides of the soiled panties. Rei lifts the other girl's legs up, lifting her rear off the bed also, and pulls the panties up Serena's legs and off over her feet. The raven-haired girl then takes off Serena's shoes, and then her socks, one at a time. Rei places a kiss on the top of Serena's right foot and begins slowly kissing her way back up the girl's leg, until she reaches the junction of Serena's legs. Rei pulls Serena down until her rear is resting on the edge of the bed and kneels down on the floor, she laces her arms under and around Serena's legs again and leans very close to the girl's most-private part.

Serena shivers when she feels Rei's breath on her womanhood. Rei brushes her hand across the other girl's lower abdomen between the strip of golden hair and the junction. The action receives another twitch from Serena, even though Rei knew the skin couldn't be *that* sensitive because she could tell Serena had shaven herself there... then again, it could be the fact that it's someone else's fingers touching the area. Rei places her index and middle fingers(of both hands) at the bottom of the strip of blonde pubic-hair, she uses her thumbs to pull Serena's nether-lips apart and presses down slightly with her fingers, revealing the other girl's clit.

Rei leans down and briefly licks Serena's clit once, causing the princess to jerk and moan, quite loudly. Rei figures Serena's clit is extremely sensitive, probably due to the fact of having never *been* with anyone. Serena's vagina begins releasing more wetness and Rei gets her first *taste* of the odango, as she licks the girl's nether-lips. Rei savors the sweet nectar of her best friend and Serena looks down at the raven-haired girl, as Rei continues licking her. Rei raises her eyes and locks Serena's gaze, she changes her target to Serena's sensitive(and now swollen) clit. Rei un-laces her right arm from around Serena's left leg and brings her hand up to the girl's opening but has second-thoughts about taking the girl's virginity.

Just as Rei's about to ask what Serena wants her to do, Serena says(a little breathlessly), "W-wait Rei."

"Alright." Rei says, relieved that she hasn't got that decision to make just yet. She raises up from between the odango's legs, unlacing her arms from around the girl's legs.

Serena sits up and allows her feet to rest on the floor on either side of Rei. Serena brushes a few errant strands of black hair out of the priestess' face, then places a kiss on the other girl's lips. Tasting herself in the kiss, Serena's pleasently surprised at the taste and intensifies the kiss. Rei gladly returns every gesture of the kiss, engaging the princess in a *tongue-war*. After breaking apart, Serena says, "Sorry, I just didn't want to... you know, before I get the chance to give you some pleasure." Rei smiles.

Serena gently pushes Rei back slightly so she can get a clear view of the raven-haired girl's chest. She leans forward and places a kiss at the base of Rei's neck, then kisses her way down toward the girl's breasts. Serena moves to Rei's right nipple and, somewhat tentatively(as should be expected), takes the bud into her mouth. As Serena suckles Rei's nipple, she cups the other breast in her right hand and begins caressing it, the priestess moans and shivers slightly. Serena uses her right thumb to massage Rei's left nipple, while continuing to suckle on the other.

After Serena finishes showing Rei's nipples the *proper* attention, she has the priestess to stand up. The odango-atama leans forward and places a kiss on Rei's naval, then she runs her tongue around and into it. Rei's body flinches slightly from Serena's tongue and fingers, as she runs her hands up and down the backs of the priestess' legs. Finally, Serena grips the sides of Rei's quite damp red panties and takes a breath before pulling them down the girl's legs, revealing her clean-shaven pubic-region. The princess swallows, worried that either she might not be able to give Rei the pleasure she wants to or she might hurt her friend.

"Relax, Serena." Rei says, causing the princess to look up and meet her gaze, "Just do what feels natural, afterall, this is a first for both of us." she smiles at her princess and adds, "Whatever you do will be right, as long as it feels natural."

Serena nods and returns the smile, then turns her attention back to the junction of Rei's legs. She raises her hands to the girl's nether-lips and gently pulls them apart, revealing the priestess' swollen clit. Serena leans forward and kisses Rei's clit, sending a shiver travelling throughout the raven-haired girl's entire body. Serena's tentativeness begins fading as she starts alternately licking and suckling Rei's clit, causing Rei's muscles to start contracting and relaxing. Rei lifts her right leg and places her foot on the edge of the bed, Serena kneels down on the floor in order to get better access to Rei's vagina.

The princess places her mouth over Rei's opening and begins running her tongue around the priestess' nether-lips. Rei's vaginal juices begin flowing and Serena uses her tongue to lap-up all of them that she can. Then without thought, Serena thrusts her tongue into Rei's opening. Fortunately, though, it doesn't hurt Rei... in fact, she enjoys it. So, Serena begins darting her tongue in and out of the girl's vagina, feeling Rei's muscles tightening and relaxing around her tongue.

After several moments of Serena's ministrations(and Rei's moans), Rei reaches down and hooks her hands under Serena's shoulders and lifts her up, then locks her lips onto the princess'. Rei returns her right foot to the floor and lifts Serena off the floor, then lies the princess onto the bed. Rei climbs onto the bed as well, with her knees on the matress between Serena's legs and her elbows on either side of Serena's waist. The raven-haired priestess reaches her right hand down and begins caressing Serena's clit and nether-lips.

After breaking the kiss, Rei begins kissing the princess' neck. When Serena catches her breath, she says, "Go ahead Rei."

"Hm?" Rei asks, raising up to look at the princess, "What d'you mean?"

"I want us to share this moment completely." replies Serena.

"Are you absolutely sure, Serena?" asks Rei.

"Of course I'm sure, Rei." the princess replies.

Rei smiles and briefly kisses the odango's lips, then works her middle finger into the girl's opening. With a single thrust, she pierces Serena's hymen and she feels the princess' blood on her finger and then her hand. The quick, sharp pain causes Serena to jerk and whimper slightly and her muscles to tighten around Rei's finger. This causes Rei to quickly remove her finger, once the other girl's muscles relax from around it.

"I'm so sorry Serena!" Rei says, with concern, "A-are you alright?"

"I hur... yes, I'm fine." Serena replies, "I wanted you to, remember?"
Rei nods and kisses the princess' lips, embracing the girl in a gentle hug. After breaking the brief kiss, she adds, "I'm still sorry, my princess."

(considering the fact that neither of them has experienced an orgasm yet, they decide to continue... a little differently)

Rei starts rubbing her own clit against Serena's, and the princess meets every one of Rei's pelvic-thrusts and rubbing-motions. Serena wraps her arms around Rei's waist and the two again lock one another's lips in a deep kiss.
~Outside/Hallway~

"I thought you said they were coming over here, Minako?" Setsuna asks the blonde walking behind her.

"Well, That's what Ryoma told me." Minako replies, "Maybe they went into one of the rooms or something."

"We might as well check." Setsuna says, as she and Mina choose different doors to open and check.

Setsuna opens a door and is stunned at what she sees.

"What is it, Sets?" asks Mina, as she walks up next to the ex-Guardian of Time.

When the older woman doesn't reply, Mina decides to see for herself and looks inside to see what Setsuna sees... Rei and Serena, locked in an embrace and moving against one another. Mina and Setsuna quickly turn away and close the door.

"Perhaps, uh, we should wait til later... to talk to them, huh?" questions Minako. Setsuna nods.

"Did you find them?" asks Ryoma, as she comes walking down the hallway.

"Yeah, We found them but," Mina says, "They're, uh, kinda... busy." she says the last part while making gestures with her hands.

"What are you going on about?" Ryoma says, walking over to the door. Mina and Setsuna move out of her way and she starts to open the door but, then she hears the sound of release(in two very distinct voices) and decides better of it. She coughs once into her hand and turns away from the door, "I see." she says and begins walking back up the hallway, "Well, I'm going back to Naomi's room."

"Hey, Ryoma. Wait up!" Mina says, as she and Setsuna catch up to the crimson-haired woman, "If you don't mind, there're some things we'd like to talk to you about." Ryoma nods her consent and the three walk back to Naomi's room.
~Hospital Room(the one Rei and Serena are in)~

Rei and Serena are now lying beside one another on their sides, facing each other... and with the bed's cover pulled over them.

"Well," Rei says, catching her breath, "That felt... new."

"You mean, You didn't--" Serena cuts herself off before finishing.

Rei closes her eyes and rolls onto her back, "Never." she replies, knowing what Serena was going to ask.

"I'm sorry, Rei." Serena apologizes, "I didn't mean to--"

"It's already forgotten." Rei says, smiling, as she opens her eyes and turns her head back toward the princess.

Rei presses her lips against Serena's and pulls the princess close to her. Serena wraps her arms around Rei and the two break apart, just gazing into one another's eyes. They lay that way for several moments, then Serena asks, "Rei?"

"Hm?"

"What we did..." the princess continues, "Um, Did you, uh--"

"Know what I was doing?" Rei finishes for her. Serena nods. Rei rolls onto her back again.

"Well, To say I knew what I was doing, would be a lie." Rei tells her, "But, At the same time, to say I hadn't any knowledge of it, wouldn't be true either."

"What do you mean, Rei?" asks Serena.

"Well, When I was doing some cleaning at the shrine, after Grandpa died, I came across his old hentai-manga collection." the priestess replies, "That, along with some *talks* I had with Ryoma, and Haruka and Michiru, a little over a year ago told me some things."

"But," she continues, "I don't think any outside source can tell someone exactly how to make love. That was the best advice I got from those *talks*."

"Ya mean, 'Just do what feels natural'?" asks the princess. Rei nods.

"That's why, I just let my mind focus on you, and my subconscious take over everything else." Rei says, "I think if two people are in love then they should just feel comfortable when they're *together*."

"I agree." Serena says, "My mom said, 'If it doesn't feel comfortable and natural, then it's not making love'."

"She was right." Rei agrees with a smile. Serena scootches closer to the raven-haired priestess, laying her head against Rei's right shoulder and draping her right arm across her chest, she also laces her legs around Rei's right leg. Rei's right arm is around Serena's torso, just under the princess' left arm.

Serena snuggles against Rei, yawns and says, "I love you, Rei."

"I love you, too, Serena." the priestess replies, before placing a gentle kiss on the odango-atama's forehead. Then, She adds under her breath, "Always."

And, Even though the word was too quiet for the princess to hear, and the fact that she's already nearly asleep, she whispers, "Always..."

Rei places her left arm behind her own head and tries to sleep but, she soon changes the positions of her head and arm... she lays her head gently against the top of Serena's and rests her left hand on Serena's right hand, interlacing their fingers.
~Roof of the Hospital~

"Oof." Luna grunts as she's dropped onto the roof, "Why did you drop me?" she asks.

"What is the matter?" Deimos says, as he perches on the edge of the roof, "I thought cats always landed on their feet."

"Hmph. Nevermind that. Where are we?" Luna questions, "Why did you bring me here, Deimos?"

"To talk." the raven replies.

"I am in no mood for your riddles!" states Luna.

"No riddles." Deimos says, "I will simply tell you in a normal way... Leave Rei and Serena alone."

"What do you mean?"

"I know that you wish to come between them. I am telling you not to." Deimos explains, "But, I trust you do not know *why* I ask this of you, do you?"

"No, I do not." the black cat replies, "They are defying destiny."

"Of course you do not know. You have not watched Rei grow up, you know not how heartbreaking her childhood was." Deimos begins, "You have never seen her cry herself to sleep, or watched her talk to birds because she had no friends. You have not seen that look of emptiness in her eyes and the look of lonliness in her expression. But now, She is happy for the first time and... you want to take that from her." the raven wipes a tear from his eye using the *elbow*(or bend) of his wing. "I do not know what having Serena taken from her would do to Rei..." he adds, "I doubt she can take another heartbreak without losing herself to the darkness that has tried to envelop her for so long. Just leave them alone, and let them be happy... please." Deimos turns and flies off.

'Perhaps... he is right.' Luna thinks to herself, "Wait. How am I supposed to get down from here!"
