Makoto awoke the next morning to a knock on her door. Amaya just looked at Makoto then put her head down and groaned. Rei rolled over and Makoto got up and walked to her door and opened it. "Haruka-san, Michiru-san what are you doing here?"
Haruka smiled. "Wake Rei-chan up we're treating you two to breakfast."
Makoto blinked a few times and rubbed the sleep from her eyes. "Please come in I'll go get Rei-chan." Makoto closed her door behind her two friends. "Please make yourselves at home I'll go get Rei-chan now."
Haruka watched Makoto walk into her room and smirked. "I knew this would happen."
Michiru looked at her lover funny. "What would?"
"Mako-chan and Rei-chan sleeping together."
Michiru crooked an eyebrow. "How do you know that's what happened?"
Haruka chuckled then smirked. "She has scratch marks on her back, fresh ones they look kinda deep too."
Michiru looked at Haruka and shook her head. "It doesn't surprise me after what Ami was telling me."
Haruka was about to say something but saw Makoto and Rei walked out of the bedroom. "You two ready to go?"
"Ready when you are Mako-chan." Haruka smiled and nodded to Rei. "Morning Rei-chan."
Rei smiled a bit and looked at Haruka. "Morning Haruka-san, Michiru-san."
Makoto smiled. "We'll follow you."
The four Senshi walked out of Makoto's and drove to the crown café. As they drove Makoto and Rei spoke quietly. "Hey Mako-chan?"
Makoto lowered her radio and looked over at Rei. "Hmmm?"
"Did I hurt you last night?"
"No, why?"
"Because those marks I left on your back look pretty painful."
Makoto smiled. "Nope they really don't hurt. They stung a bit last night but they don't hurt now."
Rei looked at Makoto ad smiled a bit. "I'm glad I didn't hurt you. Um did you mean what you said last night?"
"Yeah I did why is it a problem?" "No Mako-chan its not. I never thought I'd ever stand a chance with you. Who would have thought that such a terrible event would turn out to have such a great out come."
Makoto smiled. "You're right Rei-chan. I'm glad you feel the same way." Makoto caught a glimpse of her clock in the car turning the radio on. "Shit! I told Usagi-chan I'd meet her today at the arcade to talk to her…" Makoto looked up and realized where they were and played it off like the building reminded her.
Rei shook her head. "Don't worry Usagi will be late."
Makoto chuckled. "You have a point there."
The four girls walked into the café and sat down with their respected lovers and placed their order. Ami and Ryo walked in and saw the others and they talked for a little bit then Ami and her boyfriend went and sat down. About an hour after they finished eating Usagi and Minako walked in hand and hand. Usagi saw Haruka first and walked over to the table the closer she got she saw Rei and Makoto sitting there too. When Rei saw Usagi approach the table she snuggled up close to Makoto and kissed her neck softly and held her hand. Michiru simply smiled at how evil Rei was being. When Makoto finally looked over at Rei the miko pressed her lips to Makoto's and followed suit with the thunder Senshi's reaction. Usagi cleared her throat and shook her head to dismiss her emotions. "Sorry to interrupt Mako-chan."
Makoto looked at Usagi and shook her head. "No need…just say what you need to say."
Usagi noted the somber tone Makoto was using and told Minako go get them a table. Usagi spoke softly. "I can't stand all this fighting between us four. We all used to be such close friends..."
Rei cut Usagi off. "Then you decided to fuck Minako behind mine and Mako-chan's back."
Makoto put a hand on Rei's thigh and shook her head. "Let her talk Rei-chan."
Usagi's blue eyes began to tear up. "I didn't plan on sleeping with Minako that night we went clubbing and drank a little too much and one thing led to another."
Makoto shook her head. "Usagi-chan I've gone clubbing with Rei plenty of time and we've both gotten beyond drunk and we never slept together so you'll have to do better than that."
Minako walked over and looked into the cold eyes of Makoto and frowned. "Usagi-chan maybe it better if we just leave them alone and let them deal with this in their own way and stop pushing them. No matter how hard you try neither of them will forgive nor will they forget. Let them come to you when their ready."
Rei growled a bit but spoke softly. "Minako's right I can never forget nor forgive what you've done, but maybe one day I can put it behind me."
Makoto nodded. "…Someday maybe."
Usagi nodded and went and sat down with Minako. Haruka looked at Makoto and Rei slacked jawed. "Did you do what I think I saw you just do Rei-chan?"
Rei smirked at Haruka. "Yes I really did what you think you just saw me do."
Makoto quirked an eyebrow. "Ok sad thing is I follow you guys but your makin my head hurt."
Michiru laughed warmly. "You're not the only one Mako-chan."
Rei simply touched Makoto's cheek. "Gomen ne I'll make it up to you later." Rei's cheeks slowly turned pink from what she had said.
Makoto chuckled and shook her head. "Don't worry about it Rei-chan." Makoto leaned in and kissed the raven haired girls cheek and whispered in her ear. "I'll hold you to that." Makoto then sat back up. "You up fer a lil friendly race on the formula 1 game Haru-chan?"
Haruka smirked. "You're on Mako-chan."
The four girls paid fer their meals then walked into the arcade half of the place and Makoto and Haruka took their seats at the formula 1 race game. Rei stood at Makoto's side while Michiru stood at Haruka's. Both girls smirked as they put their token in. Haruka thought she would be nice and give Makoto a head start. Makoto shook her head. "Don't we're playing fair n square." Haruka nodded and the two girls raced. Haruka had the lead till the very end of the race where Makoto smirked and floored the gas pedal and passed Haruka.
As the large 2nd appeared on Haruka's screen she looked over at Makoto. "I hate you."
Makoto chuckled. "Why because I beat you?"
Haruka shook her head. "Rematch all or nothing I got 20 says you can't beat me again."
Makoto nodded and pulled a 20 out of her wallet. "You're on Haru-chan."
The two girls shook on it and put their money in and hit their start buttons. They were neck and neck the whole race at the last second Makoto pulled ahead and beat Haruka. Makoto smiled and kissed Haruka on the cheek. "Keep your money Haru-chan you never stood a chance."
Haruka looked at Makoto awe struck. "What do you mean I never stood a chance?"
Makoto smiled. "I've been playing the game since like forever so it really wasn't fair."
Rei smiled and kissed Makoto's cheek. "You sure humbled Haru-chan I've never seen her so quiet."
Michiru smiled. "She's a sore loser."
"One more game Mako-chan, you vs. me in DOA2 VR."
Makoto nodded. "You're on Haru-chan."
Haruka scrolled through the characters and chooses to play a male character. She chose Ein leaving him in his default leather outfit. Makoto smirked and chose Tina putting her in her wrestling outfit. Makoto started the round off with a few grabs and when she finally got Ein to the wall finished him by grabbing is arm and pulling it between his legs and lifted him up and hit him into the wall then turned around and hit him into the ground. The first match point went to Makoto the second however went to Haruka. The tie breaking round was about to begin. Makoto caught Minako out of the corner of her eye watching the match and let lose all her anger and aggression on poor Ein. Haruka stood there dumbfounded. Haruka looked over and saw the seriously pissed off look Makoto wore then saw Minako and knew why. Makoto kept a rather serious look on her face. Rei looked at Makoto's side profile and saw the look. "Mako-chan…"
Makoto looked over at Rei and saw Minako standing behind her. Makoto took a step forward and placed a hand on Rei's cheek tenderly her look immediately softening. "I'm ok angel don't worry about me." Makoto then leaned in and kissed Rei tenderly on the lips.
Minako smiled a little and held back what she was feeling. 'I deserved to see that. After what I did to Mako-chan…she deserves to be happy and since she called Rei-chan angel I'd say she's happy'.
Rei hugged Makoto and nuzzled the taller girl's neck with her nose. "I'm not worried about you babe, only in battle do I worry."
Makoto smiled softly and took Rei by the hand interlocking their fingers. "Let's go home huh."
Rei smiled. "Right behind you girl."
