Eyes For Jupiter
Chapter 16
Mamoru, Usagi and I went to investigate the companies on our list. The first three were duds. One company wasn't even operating any more as it was bought out by a development corporation and was soon to be torn down and replaced by a high rise business district. The two other duds were just what they were said to be, scrap metal recycling companies.
We had yet to arrive at the fourth company on the list. We arrived and donned our identities. Mamoru and Usagi were inspectors and I was an intern working for them. We arrived to find the place closed up tight. It looked as if no one had been there in quite some time. We managed to squeeze in through a hole we found in the fence that surrounded the building.
Everywhere we looked there were abandoned cars and debris that had to be from one of the many earthquakes that so frequently hit Japan. We were not really being careful, when Mamoru suddenly ducked down and we followed his lead. There were two men emerging from the building in front of us. I couldn't see them clearly from my vantage point, but the quick glimpse I got was that they didn't belong.
The two men got into a car and left. I noticed Mamoru jotting down something in the notebook he'd been carrying. "I got the license plate number. We'll have Ami check it out when we get back," said Mamoru.
We continued up to the building carefully. Looking in the windows was useless. They were painted black.
"I think we need to contact the others," said Mamoru. "Something about this place doesn't seem right."
Just as we were turning the corner to go back the way we had come, a car turned into the lot. Luck was on our side, we were out of sight before the driver got out and opened up the passenger door. Out stepped a sharp dressed man and he escorted out a richly dressed woman.
"What is a woman like her doing in a place like this?" I asked Mamoru.
"I don't know," he said as he lowered his camera. "It's yet another thing to ask Ami to look into."
We got back to Haruka and Michru's relatively quickly. I was anxious to see Rein again. I wanted to make sure he was alright. I didn't like leaving him alone with her.
No one answered the door when we arrived, so we let ourselves in. I yelled for Rein, but nobody answered. "That's strange. Rein said he'd be here when we got back."
"Maybe he went for a walk?" suggested Usagi.
"Yeah, that could be," I said and sat down on the settee to wait for the others to return. I was really worried, but I didn't want to let it show. What happened to make him leave? What if he left for good? I looked down at my ring finger at the ring he gave me the night before. It was beautiful and perfect. It wasn't an ordinary engagement ring. I knew it was his mother's at one time. The ring itself was the stem of a rose that wrapped around my finger. In the middle of the blooming rose was a small pink diamond.
I felt someone sit down next to me. I looked over and it was Usagi. She took my left hand and looked at my engagement ring. "It's very pretty," she said. "I know you're worried about Rein, so why don't you go on home. We'll let you know what's going on here when everyone else arrives."
"Thanks Usagi."
With that, I was out the door and headed home. It took me ten minutes to get to the nearest train station and another ten riding on it to get to the stop closest to my place. From there it was a quick five minute walk home. But I decided to stop at the cellular shop first. No more not knowing where the other is. I picked us both up new phones. I had never had one before. I never really needed one that was what the Scout communicators were for.
I made it up to my apartment and there was Rein sitting next to the door with his head leaning back against the wall and eyes closed. He looked like he was asleep. I was just standing there watching him.
"Are you just going to stare at me all day or are we gonna go in?" said Rein.
"I would like to do both," I said. "I'll never get tired of looking at you."
All the sudden he jumped up and grabbed me. I let out a surprised squeak and the next thing I knew he was kissing me with so much passion I totally forgot we were in the hall. My next door neighbor took that opportunity to make an appearance. "You should not be doing that in the hall Miss Kino."
My face instantly felt hot. Yet again Rein managed to make me blush. "Gomen nasai Mrs. Nakamura. We were just headed in."
I quickly unlocked the door and we both went in. After I shut the door, Rein began his assault on my senses again. He was kissing and nibbling my ear and neck. His hands roamed all over my body. He was making me hot down to my core.
Somehow we made it to the bedroom. I don't recall either of us losing our clothes, but we did. We landed together on the bed and he continued caressing me. His hand went down to the junction of my thighs and when he touched me there I thought I would die. He was teasing me with his slow touches. When he kissed my nipple I almost leapt off the bed. He just chuckled and then began to suckle one breast while his hand kept up it's ministrations below.
"God I need you so bad," murmured Rein.
"Then do what you will, just don't stop," I pleaded.
He immediately let out a growl and took possession of me in one swift thrust. Our union was primitive, rough and very dramatic. My only goal was to feel. And feeling I was. He was pumping into me like there was no tomorrow. I was meeting his every thrust with my own hips. Intense need drove us both before the dam was released and I felt the stars falling down in wave upon wave of sheer ecstasy. Once my release came, Rein followed within moments.
Spent, he collapsed on top of me. I hugged him to me, reluctant to let him go even for a minute. He just felt so good.
"Am I crushing you?" he asked.
"No. I quite like it here."
He let out a small laugh and rolled over pulling me with him. I was now on top.
"I'm sorry if I hurt you," he said.
I looked into his eyes and saw a bit of fear and pain in them. "Hey, you didn't hurt me. I'm a lot tougher than I look," I said. "But I am curious as to what brought this on. Not that I didn't like it, as a matter of fact, I could get use to this."
"Let's just say that I'm not my brother and Miss Sinsuifu kept mistaking me for him. I'm afraid I had to get tough with her and I feel terrible about it and it made me miss you. I love you Mao-Angel."
"It couldn't have been that bad," I replied.
"It was a disaster and I don't really care to talk about it anymore. I'd rather be discussing happier things, like us together just like this." And then he kissed me again, but before we could get much further, my communicator beeped in the living room.
"Rein I have to get that. It's the scout communicator." I quickly put back on my clothes and answered the call. It was Rei telling me that they needed me to hurry up and get back over to Haruka's they had found something. I asked her if Yukara was still there. I knew that Rein would probably not want to deal with her again. Rei told me that Michiru had just left to take her home. I told her we'd be there in an hour.
