The usual disclaimer applies: I don't own any of the characters in Sailor Moon. I am merely piggybacking on someone else's brilliant idea!

Warning: This chapter has some fluff! This will maintain it's Teen rating, however. Don't say that I didn't warn you!

Wish Upon A Star

Makoto wasn't exactly sure how she ended up sitting down on the bed again. God, he's sexy! Nephrite's hair had started to fall into his eyes and she fought the temptation to reach up and move it back. To tell the truth, she was afraid that if she touched him now, she wouldn't be able to stop.

Nephrite had no such problems. He couldn't stop staring at her mouth, knowing how much pleasure it would bring him. Reaching up, he brought his hands to her cheeks, slowly bringing her toward him. Makoto braced herself, expecting something hard and swift like before. She was not prepared for the soft brush of his lips, the teasing way that he kissed the corners of her mouth. She could already feel the kiss down to her toes!

"Open your mouth baby," he whispered against her lips. Makoto didn't need any more coaxing. He deepened the kiss, making slow love to her with his tongue. His hands moved down to the small of her back, pulling her into him. Slowly, hesitantly, her tongue touched his, causing them both to moan. Her arms went around his neck and she clung on to him, caught up in the kiss. His hands had become restless, moving from her back to her arms, then one moving toward her breasts.

The new touch startled her, causing her to jump. Nephrite pulled back for a minute to watch her reaction.

Makoto was having trouble breathing. The closer his hand got to her breast, the harder her heart seemed to beat. "Will you let me?" he asked. Words could not seem to form in her mouth…she could barely nod. He eased a hand under her nightgown, teasing a path to her breast.

Makoto's lips parted. She wasn't sure what he was doing…she just knew that whatever it was she didn't want it to stop! As his hand lightly cupped her, her head dropped back and she moaned.

"Princess," he said, slowly removing his hand with much regret. "As much as I would like to continue this, I think that it would be best for the both of us to save your virtue."

Makoto looked up confused, still lost in a fog of emotions. Suddenly, she became incredibly embarrassed at where she was.

Nephrite brushed her cheek with his fingers. "Don't be embarrassed Makoto. We did nothing wrong." He leaned in and kissed her forehead. "But this isn't a good idea."

Makoto just nodded, not knowing what she could say. How do you back away after something like this?

"Good night Nephrite." Rising to her feet, she left his side.

"Princess," he called out. She paused at the door. "Thank you."

Thank you? And just what the hell does that mean! Makoto was even more mixed up than before. It was her plan to get Nephrite to love her. So why did she feel even more confused now? He obviously liked her…

And you know very well that just because a guy kisses you doesn't mean that he wants to marry you. Oh grow up, Makoto! Her head spinning, she tried desperately to go to sleep.

Nephrite was cursing himself again. He seemed to be doing a lot of that lately. Oh, great plan. Just avoid her. That is, until you're both on the bed, in which case you can have all the contact you want. Because that won't make this job harder or anything! Damnit! First a nightmare, and now he'd crossed a line that he should never have crossed. And he wasn't stupid enough to think that nothing would change with this.

He knew he wouldn't be getting any sleep for awhile. Grabbing his clothes, he headed outside to look at the stars, hoping that they held more answers for him. So was this what the stars predicted about him hurting Makoto? God, he hoped that it was nothing more serious than this. He knew for sure though, no matter what, she was now wrapped up in his future.

And what about his nightmare? He knew that it had something to do with his predictions. If only he could remember what the dream was about!….

Makoto gave a sigh, sitting up in bed. No use pretending that she was going to sleep. She went to the window, looking out and hoping to find some peace. She spotted Nephrite looking up at the sky again. Looking at the stars again, she thought. Could he really predict his destiny?

At that moment Nephrite looked up, seeing her in the window. Yes, Nephrite thought. She is now part of my destiny.

Sorry that this is so short, but I'm fixing the next chapter and have received several threats if I didn't get the next chapter out soon!
