Okay, once awhile I want to give a shot for a song in my head. They all keep playing on and on until an idea pops up. I also notice that fanfiction has changed the appearance a little bit so we can upload the image as a cover for our story on the story list. That's good!

About the cousin reference, I am an Asian so, I grew up watching Harumichi as couple no less or more. When I learned about how they make harumichi as cousin in US, I feel like "WHAT THE HELL!" Hahahahaha, so yeah. For those who still thinking they are cousin, they should watch the Japanese version with eyes open!
I don't own sailormoon and the song
Just a Kiss – Lady Antabellum
First date. The word brought horror to the blonde detective. It took her everything to confess and now here comes the other terror. Haruka knew, sooner or later she would face this situation. Michiru never ask for it, she had been very understanding in these past two weeks. The lawyer patiently waited for Haruka to deal with some problems left after the bomber case. Now everything is back to normal again, the odd only about Haruka and Michiru officially are a couple now.
An awkward couple.
Haruka never been good in doing a relationship. First, because she is a cop and second because she IS a cop. She didn't put so much effort to build connection with another human and that's the reason why she is what she is now.
However, Haruka wanted this relationship now. She wanted Michiru and everything about her worked out until the point they were called an end. So, she would make tonight the night for them.
"How do I look?" Haruka turned to her partner. Mamoru was asked to help Haruka special for the night. He had been a fashion advisor, motivator, and simply best friend for supporting Haruka to get the girl. Mamoru grinned, he satisfied with his piece of work in front of him. There stood Haruka perfectly like a prince and a gentleman. Any woman would fall for her, well and some guys maybe.
"Fantastic, sexy." Haruka was ready to protest the sexy word from Mamoru.
"We still have some time preparation before you pick her up." Mamoru felt something was off with Haruka. Just a little detail and his partner would be perfect.
"Why I forget this important thing!"
"What?" Haruka frowned. She undo 2 buttons from her collar in order to breath.
"Roses, baby." Mamoru chuckled, gave Haruka a thumb up.
Lyin' here with you so close to me
It's hard to fight these feelings when it feels so hard to breathe
Caught up in this moment
Caught up in your smile…
30 minutes later, Haruka was standing in front of Michiru's apartment door. She hid her nervousness by humming some uncertain tones. When she heard the clicking of unlocking door, Haruka's posture became suddenly stiff. At least for 3 seconds because after Haruka saw Michiru, everything went blur and she didn't care anymore about anything.
Here stood a Goddess.
The moment when their eyes met, Haruka knew everything is gonna be fine. No, everything will be great.
"Ah, hi." Michiru reacted first. A blush crept out from her beautiful face. Haruka recovered her mind and replied her greeting.
"Hi, you too." Haruka answered dryly.
From a thousand answers… she chose hi you too?
"Are they for me?" Michiru pointed out a bucket of roses in Haruka's hand.
"This? Ah, yes…" Haruka handed the roses which Michiru accepted it gladly. She disappeared into her room and back a moment later with a purse in her hand.
Haruka smiled, she offered her arm to the lawyer.
"Mind if I ask where you will take me, detective?"
"I have my own agenda." The blonde chuckled. They went to Haruka's car. The blonde opened the passenger door for Michiru.
"Wow, I think chivalry has died." Michiru stated jokingly.
"It's not a chivalry, it's an honor for me to escort someone as beautiful as a goddess."
"Smooth. You are surprising me, detective."
I never open up to anyone
It's hard to hold back
When I'm holding you in my arms
"How do you know?" Michiru whispered. She took a deep breath and felt the winds caressing softly on to her face. The moon shone brightly. The reflection of the moon could be seen clearly like twin yellow balls. One on the sky, one inside the water.
"How do I know what?" Haruka sat beside Michiru. After a brief dinner and 2 glass of wine in an Italian restaurant, Haruka drove along the coast. It's not surprising when the lawyer asked Haruka to stop the car and grabbed the chance to feel the night air on the beach.
"How do you know I love this place very much?" Michiru turned her gaze to Haruka.
"Because every time I see you, you remind me of the ocean. It brought a nostalgic feeling and I came to like it."
Michiru smiled wider. She stood up and took off her shoes.
"When I was 6, I loved this game." Haruka saw Michiru began to do some stretching.
"Let's make a bet. I will be the first who reach that huge black rock over there."
Haruka stood up, standing side by side with the lawyer, she grinned playfully.
"What will I get if I win?"
"Whatever do you want as long as it's rational request. The opposite will do if I win." Michiru answered.
"Okay… I'm on."
Michiru ran off first, the blonde realized second after that Michiru had stole the start.
"You can say one two three first…!" Haruka shouted, she easily catch up with Michiru.
"I do not intend to lose." Michiru replied, she knew she cannot beat the blonde if she was serious.
Michiru used her last resource, she tackled the blonde to the side until Haruka connected and soaked with salt water. A splash sound followed with Haruka's surprise gasp filling the night.
"Ooops." Michiru couldn't hold back the urge to laugh. Seeing the detective wet and struggled to get up. Haruka groaned when she used her previous injured arm to support herself. That time, Michiru stopped her laugh and ran to the blonde's side.
"I'm sorry, are you okay? Is it hurt?" worriedly, Michiru checked the blonde's arm and made sure there was no damage on it.
"I'm not okay." Haruka pouted like a child. "give me your hand." Haruka asked.
The lawyer thought Haruka needed help to get up, but unexpectedly the blonde pulled her off to join her in the water.
"Haruka!"
"What? Now, neither of us win." Haruka chuckled, satisfied with the result. She never asked more with the scenery before her. Michiru even more beautiful under the moonlight.
The lawyer had noticed Haruka's gaze on her. She held her breath, closed her eyes when Haruka's face came closer to hers. She waited for this, Haruka didn't know… but actually the lawyer had dreamt of all of this since the first time they met.
Michiru opened her eyes when the expected touch never come.
"It's late. Let's go home." Haruka said softly.
We don't need to rush this
Let's just take it slow…
The drive home was quiet. Each of them knew what happened at the time. Haruka had somehow managed to hold her urge to take the chance. Call her crazy, but she was the type who treated a first date as first date.
Or it was just a reason of her fear to Michiru's rejection.
Haruka doubted that Michiru will refuse her, however if it happens Haruka couldn't bear it.
"We are here." Haruka said, turning off the engine.
Michiru needed a minute before she could face the blonde.
"Want to come in?" hesitant, the lawyer spoke.
"Next time." Haruka flashed a smile. Politely she cupped Michiru's face and planted a kiss on her forehead. The blonde noticed the lawyer's sigh.
"Good night."
"Good night." Michiru got out from the yellow Porsche while Haruka watched her retreating figure.
I know that if we give this a little time
It'll only bring us closer to the love we wanna find
It's never felt so real, no it's never felt so right…
Michiru was disappointed. Totally lost and utterly defeated. If she didn't know Haruka better, she swore that the blonde only playing with her heart. Unfortunately, she knew Haruka. Michiru knew who Haruka is. The detective wasn't a person who would go all the way without considering her part. Even with all the green light Michiru had given to her, Haruka still waited until the lawyer certainly sure about her own decision.
What a gentleman Haruka is.
Michiru rolled her eyes, she was walking out from the blonde's car. She could feel the burning gaze on Haruka's eyes. The detective held back her desire just like she was.
Michiru didn't need a gentleman tonight. She only needed Haruka, a badass blonde detective that had snatched her heart away and drown her into the feelings of devastated love.
"Damn it!" Michiru spun around from her track. She ran back to the yellow car, to Haruka.
Just a kiss on the lips in the moonlight
Just a touch of the fire burning so bright
No I don't want to mess this thing up
I don't want to push too far
Just a shot in the dark that you just might
Be the one I've been waiting for my whole life
"Michi?" Haruka surprised when witnessing the lawyer went back into her car.
Michiru loved the way Haruka called her with a nick name.
"Haruka, answer me. Do you love me?" Michiru shot a question to the startle Haruka.
"Of course yes." The detective didn't even blink. "Why?"
"I need to get these things done. I've been waiting. In my whole life, I have never been the one who wait, but I'm waiting you." Michiru took a deep breath before continuing.
"I've been wanting you, Haruka Tenoh because I madly and completely falling for you…"
"Michi…"
"So, just kiss me and get the things done. Kiss me like I am the one who own your heart, kiss me like you own me…" Michiru snapped.
"Michi…" Haruka cut the lawyer softly with her lips. The kiss was brief but it was enough to make Michiru stunned.
"You are ruining my plan, you know that?" Haruka sighed, smiled widely. She would give whatever Michiru wanted for the next date.
So baby I'm alright.
With just a kiss goodnight.
