Author's Note: Sort of an indirect sequel to 23 - Flirt. What was Rei's reaction?
24 - Shared Milkshake
Words: 303
"He is so infuriating!"
"Oh, do explain."
The fiery senshi needed no prompting. "He always go around with that silly smirk of his, and that narcissistic personality. Then he has the nerve to publicly flirt with one of my best friends like it's nothing. Who does he think he is?"
Makoto smirked at Rei's tirade. She was jealous, but she would be the last person to admit to the fact that she liked General Jadeite a lot. Too stubborn to admit defeat - typical.
"Here have a milkshake. It's cherry."
Rei looked gratefully and she was never one to pass up Makoto's good food. Recently, she had devised a new drink made from milk, ice-cream and various fruits. Taking a satisfying sip, Rei let her anger cooled, until she heard his voice.
"So, what are you drinking?" Rei pointedly ignored him.
"It is considered rude to ignore someone when he is speaking to you."
Again, he was met by silence. "As much as I like hearing my own voice and all, you still haven't my question. Come now, it is hard having a one-sided conversation."
Taking another slurp, she licked her lips once before addressing him. She totally missed the slight bulging of his eyes, "It is also considered to be unladylike to talk and drink at the same time."
"But, it is also impolite not to share your good fortunes, my beautiful firebird."
He knew that his personal pet name for her would get her riled up, "So, you want to me to share?" she asked.
Before he had a chance to nod, she returned, "Share this!" and then promptly dumped the rest of the milkshake down his head.
His eyes flashed, "This isn't over, my little spitfire."
On his way out to change, he added, "By the way, cherry is my favourite."
