Just A Little
Haruka slammed down her cup staring into Rei's eyes. "You're turn."
The ravenette didn't break eye contact while bringing up the plastic cup to her lips. After a few seconds she threw the empty cup on the ground. "Done."
Minako held back a grin seeing the two. "Betting my cookies on the hot one."
"Which one?" Usagi asked observing both girls as they slowly got more and more tipsy.
Minako scratched her head. "The one with black hair."
"Then I put my cookies on the other hot one!"
Makoto shook her head. "Quit messing around, you know who they are." Minako giggled putting a hand on the taller girl's shoulder.
"Mako-chan. Just drink and forget. Names aren't important at this point." She attempted to continue but was interrupted by a hiccup. "Ah, dammit I forgot what I was gonna say."
Her fellow blonde laughed taking another swig of her drink. "Hey Mako-chan where's Ami-chan at?"
Makoto looked around in search for the blue haired genius. "Around here somewhere. Why?"
"I just think...you two need to just get some alcohol in your system and say it. Just frickin say it." Usagi said leaning on a nearby table.
Minako shot up from her seat nodding. "That's what I was gonna say! Get her Mako-chan, get out there and get that girl!"
"How much have you guys had?"
Minako shook her head. "Don't change the subject!" She slammed her fist down on the table. "Hey, you! Yeah you! You work here?!" The man she pointed to nodded. "Get us some shots!"
Makoto leaned on her arm. "You're having more?"
Usagi sat with them. "We are?"
"Of course not, it's for Makoto." The man returned. "Keep them coming until this one starts throwing up."
The man cocked his head. "Sorry, what?"
"Just ignore her." Makoto mumbled.
"No! I'm giving you your damn money. Bring more when you see these empty!" Usagi nodded with her. She shoved the shots towards the brunette. "Drink up."
"No thanks."
"Makoto I didn't ask I'm telling you. Drink. Up. The drinks here are expensive."
Makoto sighed. "Fine."
Usagi lifted her drink in the air. "To our horrible love life."
"Amen." Minako clapped after drinking down the rest of what remained in her cup.
While the two blondes cheered together Makoto tried her best not to spit out whatever it was she drank. She looked up at the future leader. "Don't you have Mamoru-san?"
"Mako-chan don't ruin this moment." Minako cried out holding Usagi close. "I can't drink anymore, take them Mako."
"No, no. One's enough."
Usagi forced herself out of Minako's arms. "Mako-chan we drink to forget, take em!"
She was already feeling dizzy from that one shot. How could Mako finish their drinks? Minako and Usagi looked up at her with pleading eyes. "Just...fine just a few more. But after this I'm done."
The twins smiled in victory. "To our horrible love life!" Minako repeated.
The waiter returned with more.
Minako smiled seeing Makoto's face turn a faint pink. with a mischievous smirk she extend out the drink. "Here Mako-chan." She offered a full glass of some sort of beverage that Makoto couldn't recognize.
"Alright just a little more."
"Yeah, Mako-chan!" Usagi got on her tippy toes to wrap an arm around the taller girl's neck. "Where's Rei-chan at!? This is about her too!"
Her fellow blonde stood from her seat. "Still with Haruka-san." She walked to their table pulling away an almost unconscious miko from Haruka who just about threw up. "Rei-chan don't pass out on me now, we need to get Ami-chan and Mako-chan together.
"Ya turn Hakura." She mumbled.
Minako lifted Rei onto a chair next to Makoto. "Get us some mor-"
"Usa get more." Makoto ordered putting a hand on Minako's arm.
"Eh? Mako-chan?" Minako blinked a few times seeing the red faced brunette who had a table full of empty bottles and cups.
"Minako-chan." Usagi weeped out crawling towards the love goddess. "I…" hiccup "ordered the wrong ones…" she collapsed next to Makoto's legs.
Rei opened an eye. "Whatre you doin here?"
The brunette went to drink from her cup. "Arg it's empty!" She tossed it down hitting Usagi. "Rei go up there with me."
Minako shook her head. "I was gone for a second! Mako-chan you're going to pass out if yo-"
"Okay."
The two stood up walking to the counter.
"Wait! You guys!" Minako went to chase them, forgetting about Usagi who was still on the ground, and ended up tripping over her.
Makoto and Rei staggered up to the counter. "Oi, c'mere." Makoto spat out seeing the lady wince upon laying eyes on them.
"Y-yes?"
"Get us-" the brunette was cut off by a flurry of coughs. Rei covered for her.
"Drinks, doesn't matter what."
"By drinks do you mean water or-"
"Alcohol." Makoto barked slamming her fist on the counter causing some glass cups to fall off.
"Mako-chan?"
"Nani?!"
Rei looked up hearing the sudden change in language.
"Are you...okay?"
The pyro recognized the voice, she slowly turned her head 90° to see familiar blue hair. "Ami-chan!" She chirped switching over to Ami's shoulder. "Where've you been?"
"I-ah Mamoru-san wanted me to help watch over Motoki-san. He's a bit-"
"What's takin so long!?" Makoto shouted.
"Mako-chan are you okay?" She repeated only a tiny bit startled from her sudden explosion.
"Just peachy." finally Makoto looked down at her friend.
"You're!"
"I'm?"
Ami's eyebrows slightly narrowed. "You said you weren't going to drink tonight."
"It's fine! I'm fine! In fact I feel great!" She grinned winking at Ami. "You're worrying over nothing."
The bluenette examined Makoto. "No you're not. Rei-chan I asked you to keep an eye on her!"
Rei smiled apologetically. "I didn't notice she left."
"Guyyyys!" Minako galloped towards them stopping only to catch her breath. "You've...you've had enough Mako-chan."
"Ehh? You said drink to forget." To the brunettes relief the bartender brought her a shot. "To my horrible love life." She mumbled.
Ami glared at Minako. "What did you do to her?"
"Nothing! Just gave her a drink that's it! It was Usagi's fault." Minako defended.
"Why even bother!?" Makoto shouted to herself. "Snot like any guy ever wants to date me anyways!" She drank down Rei's shot.
"Damn right!" Rei agreed.
"Rei-chan!"
"Sorry, sorry." The miko leaned against the counter. "But loosen up Ami! Todays all about drinking and forgetting!"
"Forget what?" Ami asked tilting her head.
"About all our goddamn relationships and problems." Makoto sobbed.
Minako couldn't help but nod along with Makoto. She ran into the taller girl's arms as they both cried. "This is why I keep telling you to just go and date Ami-chan!"
Rei bit her tongue holding back the great urge to throttle the blonde. Luckily the music was able to drown out the last bit of Minako's sentence. She smiled at Ami, suddenly feeling sober. "Say, Ami-chan. Can you come with me for a sec?"
Minako noticed this. "Look at you, trying to take the last bit of Mako-chan's happiness!" She accused.
Ami looked at her with even more confusion. "Mako-chan's happiness?"
"Let em leave. I was never meant to be happy anyways." She broke down in tears again.
Rei felt a sweat drop creep its way down her head. "Didn't know she would be this emotional when she's drunk." The ravenette mumbled. "Listen to me Minako. Get Makoto to her apartment and let her sober up."
"So that she can feel the pain again?! So that she can sit in her apartment alone and think her love is in another woman's arms!?" Minako was practically shouting now, Makoto felt tears form again upon hearing Minako's words. "I don't think so." The blonde humphed.
"I think I should stay with Mako-chan." Ami said trying to process what Minako was talking about. "I did promise her I'd keep her away from any drinks."
The love goddess gave a thumbs up to Makoto who was still blinded by tears. Rei nodded.
"That works too. Come on Minako-chan." She pulled the blonde away. "Make sure she makes it back home safe and sound."
Ami patiently waited for Makoto to regain her composure but gave up when a fresh bucket of tears streamed down the taller girl's face. "Mako-chan do you want me to take you back to your apartment?"
The brunette's babbling sounded out Ami's question. She started going on about her obsession over the same guy then went on about never finding her ideal prince and of course mentioning that she will never have the courage to ask out the bluenette or any other girl she ever had feelings for because sh-...hold on. Ami stopped listening and for a moment she thought she had accidentally frozen herself.
"Mako-chan?"
"-That's why when Minako offered I had nothing to lose! So why not? But then one turned to two then two turned to five then eight then ten then before you know it I drank every goddamn tequila bottle they had-"
"Mako-chan!"
"-who cares anyway? A little booze never hurt anyone! I'm just gonna end up dying alone just li-"
"Kino Makoto!"
She stopped. "Hmm?"
Ami blushed feeling the girl's eyes on her. "I- can we go back to your apartment now?"
Makoto looked at her in surprise. "What?" Did she really say that? Or did she just hear wrong? Does drinking affect your hearing? Her thoughts must've been obvious because the bluenette almost choked on the air.
"N-not that way! I-I mmmeant take you back so you can rest!" She kept her gaze to the ground. "Are you...um…ready to go?"
A tsunami of dissapointment smacked Makoto across the face causing her to fall off her chair, that or maybe it was because she forgot how to stand. Either way she was turned off. Ami's response just shattered the light switch. She completely annihilated all of the brunettes hopes of finally getting lai-er finding love and being happy. "Yeah." Was her response. 'Yeah'. She could've said something like 'fuck that I want to bang you' or maybe something more subtle like 'we can just sleep in the same bed without clothing'...was that considered subtle? Eh it'd get the point across. Wow, have I always been like this? Or is it just the drinks? It has to be the drinks.
"Mako-chan?"
Huh, I've been sitting on the floor this whole time. "Let's go." She dragged herself to her feet. Allowing the floating thoughts of loneliness stab her heart. Was she really never going to find true love? Was she actually gonna die a single virgin who's never even kissed a guy? Or girl? Neither? Ah Kami that would be depressing. Who'd thought that of all people USAGI would beat her to the world of affection? For christs sake the girl is going to be a mother in a few years. She'll be able to start a goddamn family! She'll be a queen. A queen! Zeus if you're up there please just kill me. Who cares if they'll be one senshi short? She had finally thought she found the right person but, like always, IT'S ONE-SIDED. Makoto sighed, "...you know, I've noticed that I seem to talk to myself more when I'm drunk."
Ami snapped out of her thoughts. "Really? What are you thinking about?"
"Youuuu-uniforms."
"What?"
"I said uniforms."
"Uniforms?"
"I'm drunk okay? Don't judge."
Ami giggled. "Who's fault is that?"
"Yours."
"Hey, it's not my fault! You chose to drink!" Makoto smiled.
"Buuut I did ask you to stop me from drinking, in which you did not do. So therefore, it is your fault."
The genius rolled her eyes. "I guess I am to blame. I did promise I'd stay by your side, sorry." Makoto was almost gleeful hearing Ami. "Do you have the keys to your apartment?"
"Do...I?" She reached in her pocket. "I think I do."
"I hope you do." Ami looked up at the glistening stars, each shining brightly, and of course the moon. The moonlight glowed down at them, she sighed. "The sky is so beautiful."
Makoto gazed up as well. Under her breath she whispered. "Not as beautiful as you."
"Hmm?"
"I said I need to get laid." Makoto regretted saying that as soon as her sleeve burned off. At first she thought it was Rei who had turned into Sailor Mars just for the sake of attacking her for saying something idiotic, but it turned out to be the blazing inferno that was Ami's face. "Ah! Sorry that's the booze talking." She quickly covered. At least it wasn't a lie(?)
"R-right, yes of course." She nodded walking a tad bit faster with her gaze fixed onto the ground. She was so focused on it she almost didn't see the car that was speeding in front of her. Well, in reality, she didn't see it. But luckily Makoto, although still in her drunken state, was fast enough to pull Ami away from the yellow sports car just as it came to a screeching stop.
"Dammit Haruka! I told you to let me drive!"
Emerald and sapphire eyes locked onto the driver and passenger in the car. "Rei-chan?" They both asked staring at the blazing red miko who had the sandy blonde in a chokehold. She looked up for a second.
"Oh hey." Without warning, Haruka threw up angering the ravenette even more. "Get out of the car."
"Get out me car." Haruka laughed interrupted by more vomit. "...vroom...vroom…" she choked out. Rei rolled the racer out of the car.
"Where's everyone else?" Ami asked after Haruka hurled a few more times. Rei met her eyes but quickly moved them down to Haruka when she began to gag again.
"We went out to look for them." The miko patted the blonde's back. "Usagi went ballistic when I told her you guys left. She and Minako ran out to find you two." Haruka regurgitates some more in the background. "The worst part is she left the bill to us, I had no money so Michiru-san had to pay for all of our drinks."
"That was nice of her." Makoto said.
"Let me repeat, I had no money so Michiru-san HAD to pay for ALL OF OUR DRINKS." She pointed at the brunette. "I'm pretty sure she and Setsuna-san are bankrupt because of you guys."
Makoto waved her hand in dismissal. "Nah, nah. We didn't drink that m-"
"THE OWNER TOLD US YOU DRANK ALL OF THEIR TEQUILA!" Leaving the wheezing blonde's side she stood in front of Makoto. "ALL. OF. THER. TEQUILA!"
"Drinks are made to be drunk. It's in the name." Rei went to interject but Makoto interrupted her. "Plus, he should be happy they got money because of me."
"AND NOW MICHIRU-SAN AND SESTUNA-SAN ARE BROKE!" Rei stopped to breathe. "This isn't what we came to do. You guys go home we have to-"
"I think I just puked out my heart." Haruka called out.
"We have to look for Minako and Usagi." She loudly replied. The senshi of fire walked towards Haruka who burst in a puddle of giggles.
Ami decided to walk away when she heard Rei scream again. Taking Makoto's hand they went the opposite way. After walking for a few minutes Ami stopped, realizing something very important. "Mako-chan, where do you live?"
"..."
The genius turned around slowly to see the clueless expression on the brunette.
"...not here?"
Ami restrained every urge in her body to collapse, she staggered but regained her balance. "T-then where are we?" The bluenette began to panic when Makoto shrugged. She never did explore certain parts of Juuban, mostly because it was basically infested with all sorts of dangers. Sailor Mercury or not she wasn't gonna go prance around every corner of Juuban just to get familiar with the terrain. She took out her mini computer typing furiously into it.
Makoto frowned when Ami let go of her hand to type on the computer. It was nice while it lasted I guess. Oh yeah, where are we? The taller girl looked around. Ohhh wait a minute, I do live here. She grabbed Ami's hand pulling her towards a large building.
"M-Mako-chan!?"
The brunette lead them up the stairs towards a room with the nameplate 'Kino' beside it. Makoto fumbled to get the keys out, as well as use them to open the door, resulting in her dropping them many times. But eventually, she was able to unlock the door. "Home sweet home."
"Oh, this is your apartment," Ami whispered trying to calm her frantic heart from suddenly being grabbed by Makoto. Many thoughts went through the geniuses brain, none of them pg rated. Finally she was calm enough to walk into the room. "...this is amazing…"
Makoto had already collapsed on a couch. She lazily swayed her head toward the direction of Ami's voice. "Mmm?"
"There's so many plants." She continued to look around. "This place is almost sparkling."
It is extremely hot in here. Why? Is it 'cause Ami's in here? Does being drunk cause you to overheat? She had been sweating back at the bar. Well it was packed in there. Makoto stood up to take off her green shoulderless shirt. Then took a moment to look over her lean body. Damn, besides Ami I am literally the hottest person alive...so why am I single!? Mako gave a huff of irritation. "Stupid world." She grumbled looking away from her glorious body.
"Did you say som…" Ami had finally recovered from her surprise attack, but of all the things she imagined Makoto do, getting undressed was, oddly, not one. Ami yelped feeling the ground underneath her freeze. "Oh." She squeaked out turning away.
"Is there something on my face?" Makoto reluctantly reached up to wipe whatever it was that made Ami react that way.
"Well, no...i-it's you….y-you're not….w-w-wearing a...um...shirt." She managed out still glued to the opposite wall.
"Yeah, it's hot in here." The brunette still didn't understand why Ami was embarrassed. "I usually take off my shirt when it's hot. If you want you can too."
Ami sputtered out whatever sounds she was able to say. "I-I-I that n-n-no I'mmm ffff-f-f-fine."
While Makoto tried hard to digest what the bluenette said, Ami had her eyes now firmly glued to the ground, not moving or breathing. She was afraid she would actually pass out because of the massive amount of blood that rushed to her face, plus the large portion of oxygen that she desperately needed in her overworked brain.
Makoto stretched feeling dizzy for only a moment. "Where's my room?" She wobbled around the apartment room in search for her bed. Ami watched her walk left and right, trying her best to not look at the brunette's semi-naked body. "Are you coming?" Makoto asked when she finally found her room.
As if Ami's body couldn't get any redder, if anything the bluenette was now scarlet red all over while her hair was bright purple. It was too late to go home but sleep in the same bed as Makoto? WHILE she had no shirt? Well she could just sleep on the couch, Makoto wouldn't complain while she was drunk. She slowly made her way into the room the brunette had entered.
Every little bit of innocent thoughts Ami had disappeared as soon as she walked into the room. There was a foreign term Minako would use at times like this. Shook. That's what Ami felt that instant. She felt utterly shook. There, infront of her, laid Makoto now without jeans, on the bed. The now completely violet haired girl clutched onto the door. Her growing embarrassment shocked Ami. How was she not dead yet? How could her heart handle all of this? How did her arms have the strength to hold her weight!? There was no way she could sleep under the same covers with Makoto now, not with her missing two vital pieces of clothing. She would actually die of blood loss. "M-M-Makkkoto...wwwhere are...yo-your c-cl-l-lothhhes!?"
Makoto lifted her head slightly, then lazily dropped it back down. "I told you it was hot, you can take off you clothes too if you want, I won't mind."
There was a snap. Ami feared it was a blood vessel. To her dismay, red liquid seeped down her nose. NEVER in her life had she had a nosebleed. NEVER. Makoto looked at her in confusion.
"Where did you get ketchup?"
The senshi of wisdom stood straight. "You can sleep here. I'll sleep on the couch." Slamming the door behind her Ami slipped on the ice she accidentally produced while running away.
Makoto shrugged laying back down. Well if she doesn't want to get sexy with me I'll just fall asleep. I'm exhausted from all my self-pity. The brunette closed her eyes letting sleep overtake her body.
In the living room, Ami sat on the couch trying to wrap her head around the whole situation. How could she sleep knowing Makoto was less than 10 feet away from her almost completely naked and better yet drunk!? With one single action she could easily go in there with Makoto and- "Nononononnononononono!" Ami shrieked holding her head. "I can't take advantage of Mako-chan while she's drunk!" Relief and disappointment rushed into the geniuses head. "That's right, she's intoxicated right now, that's why she's acting this way." Ami fell back into the couch. "Of course." Her eyes closed for a moment. "Of...of course."
Emerald eyes fluttered open then shut immediately. Makoto grunted holding the sides of her head. It felt as if someone had cut open her head using a dull butter knife that was made out of wood. With a great amount of effort she opened one eye to look around her room. She sighed in relief when she found her surroundings familiar. Then she opened her eyes when the sound of someone dropping a pan entered her ears. Her eyes lowered down to herself. No shirt, no pants, and someone is in my apartment. "Please tell me I'm still a virgin." She prayed to herself standing slowly trying her best to ignore the violent throbbing of her head. Her hands gripped the doorknob. "Don't be ugly, don't be ugly, don't be ugly." She opened the door.
Ami had woken up earlier to buy some things to help Makoto recover from her hangover. While she prepared a light breakfast, a pan slid off the counter. "Oops." She bent down to pick it up, noticing the contents of what was in the pan was now all over the ground. With a sigh she grabbed a towel and began to clean it up. Why was she so worked up? The bluenette wasn't an amazing cook but she wasn't horrible either. Yet she felt nervous still being in Makoto's apartment, especially after what happened last night. After cleaning up her mess Ami stood up to see Makoto standing by the doorway in her underwear.
Makoto stared at Ami in shock, she completely forgot about her massive headache at that moment. Her green eyes moved to the many food items on the table then they moved back toward the red faced bluenette. Why was she...oh god. Makoto slammed the door shut. OH MY GOD, OHMYGODOHMYGODOHMYGODOHMYGODOHMYGOD. I was with Ami!? The throbbing pain the brunette felt was now the least of her concern. She was naked and Ami was in her apartment if they didn't have sex then what the hell happened? Makoto tried to remember the previous night's events but she had completely blacked out.
Still embarrassed Ami moved slowly towards the door. "M-Mako-chan?"
"We didn't…?"
It took Ami a few seconds to catch onto what Makoto was asking. "Oh, n-no we didn't do anything. I...uh...brought you home last night."
The thunder senshi nodded. "But my clothes?"
"That...you-erm-you said you were hot so you took of your clothes."
ZEUS PLEASE KILL ME NOW! WHO CARES IF THEY'RE ONE SENSHI SHORT!? Makoto perked up. That sounded familiar, had she said that before? After sitting on the ground, deciding not to respond, the throbbing of her head reminded Mako she was in the middle of a deadly hangover. As if sensing this, Ami spoke up.
"There's some tea here if you'd like."
Makoto went to open the door, but her dignity screamed at her to put on some clothes. "I'll be out in a second." She mumbled now fully aware she was probably going to die if she didn't do something about her headache.
The table was now set with a plate full of pancakes. Ami wasn't seated but instead continued to make more. She decided making an unnecessary amount of pancakes was better than eating pancakes with Makoto while yesterday's events were still fresh in her mind. After making enough servings to feed Usagi for another two years, Makoto walked out noticing the big pile of pancakes.
"Are you that hungry?" She asked innocently enough to hid her inner embarrassment for whatever the hell she did to Ami while they were alone. Ami smiled with equal innocence but gave no response. The lack of conversation scared Makoto. Just what happened? When they were alone together it was almost impossible to keep Ami quiet. "...sorry if I did anything rash yesterday I was-uh not myself?"
Ami noticed her hesitation. "You didn't do anything Mako-chan."
Then why are you so quiet? She was so tempted to ask that, but decided better of it. Makoto instead sat down pinching the bridge of her nose to fight of her migraine. The brunette noticed her tea was on the counter next to the still growing pile of pancakes, just how much mix did she make? Makoto walked up next to the timid genius.
Using the excuse of making more pancakes wouldn't last forever, eventually Ami would run out of pancakes to make. Looking to her left she noticed the mix was just about gone, she also noticed Makoto standing right next to her calmly sipping the tea she had accidentally forgot to take to her. The brunette didn't look at her nor did she have any expression she just stared at the pile of pancakes looking almost bored.
Usually at this time Ami would be talking the taller girl's ears off but she hadn't spoken much. But that was only because she felt different standing next to Makoto. Her heart was hammering in her chest to the point where it almost hurt breathing. She was having a hard time explaining why she was suddenly feelings so nervous around the thunder senshi. They have spend more time together then Ami had spent studying, and that's saying something. "Are...you feeling any better?"
Hearing the sweet of voice of the ice senshi shook Makoto out of her daydream. "Oh yeah, besides the feeling of getting stabbed multiple times I feel pretty amazing." She smiled making Ami blush. Makoto looked down at the smaller girl. "Are yo-"
"Mako-chaaaan!" The door was kicked open by the famous odango haired princess. "Good morning!" Usagi skipped inside breathing in the aroma of food. Rei followed after her carrying Minako on her back.
Makoto winced as her the throbbing pain increased. "Hey." She managed out.
Rei laid Minako on the couch. "How ya feeling Mako-chan?" She asked after prying the blonde's hands off her arms.
"I was fine until Usagi broke down my door." She said surveying the damage of her front door. "Speaking of Usagi."
"How is she even standing?" Ami asked.
Rei shook her head. "That girl is a mystery, one second she's completely passed out on my bed, the next she's sprinting across Jubaan to eat some of 'Mako-chan's miracle food' as she described it."
Usagi sat down waiting patiently for her plate of food. "Minako couldn't get out of bed because of her hangover." She said sprouting a conversation. "Rei-chan had to carry her all the way here."
Minako groans in the background.
"Do you want some tea Minako-chan?" Ami asked.
She groans.
"That was a yes." Rei said accepting a plate of pancakes from Makoto. Usagi's eyes sparkled when she got her serving.
"Thank you Mako-chan!"
"I didn't make them, Ami did."
"Oooh, thank you Ami-chan!" Usagi called while Minako wobbled towards them sitting down
"You made a lot of them, did you know Usagi was gonna come?" Rei asked. The blonde stuck out her tongue.
"Speaking of coming..." Minako mumbled turning her gaze to the brunette. "How was it?"
"...how was what?"
"Ohhh Amiiii-chaaaan~~! You didn't tell her?" Usagi asked playing along.
"Wait, wait. What are you talking about!?" Makoto turned to Ami then to Usagi.
"I-we didn't do anything!" Ami shrieked hoping Makoto didn't believe them.
"Tsk, tsk." Rei shook her head. "You didn't tell her? I expected better from you Mizuno-san."
"Not you too, Rei-chan! You know we didn't do anything!" Ami began to panic. She knew they didn't do anything sexual yet they were making it sound so believable she was afraid it actually had happened and she just forgot. Looking at Makoto's face made her heart race even more than it already was.
"So we actually did?" She whispered Minako nodded vigorously her hangover now long gone. Does that mean…? Ami likes me? Makoto risked a glance at the bluenette, she was looking at her too. The brunette smiled awkwardly, looking away.
"No." Rei stood up. "I am against sex before marriage."
Minako giggled patting the Miko's back. "Now, now honey, let the kids be. They are obviously in love." The blonde took a deep breath. "Reminds me of us when we were younger." Minako choked on her own tears.
The other blonde stared curiously at the two girls beside her. "Is this all part of the joke too?" She asked now lost in what was real and what wasn't.
Rei ran her hand down Minako's hair to comfort the blonde from whatever it was she was crying about. If this is them acting then they are really good. Usagi thought.
"Let's leave the kids alone." Minako managed out pulling Usagi with them.
"Wait! My pancakes!"
Makoto and Ami were left in silence, besides the background noise of Usagi crying out for her pancakes. Makoto broke it first. "I'm confused, did we or...did we not?"
"I don't think we did," Ami answered looking at her shoes embarrassed. Minako's dialogue fresh in her head.
"Ami. I-uh…" Makoto fumbled over her words. What if she was drunk? What if it was just a misunderstanding and she actually doesn't like you!? Oh my god then this would be embarrassing. Dammit, Mako just say it! Get it off your chest! She nodded to herself taking a deep breath. "Ami I-"
"I like you!"
Woah, since when was my voice so...high...wait. That was Ami. The brunette looked at the ruby-faced senshi. "You…like me?"
There was a very little, barely audible pop sound. Ami exploded. "YesIhaveforaverylongtimebutIwasalwaystooscaredtotellyouortellanyoneelsebecauseIdidn'tthinkyou'dlikemebackandIknowyoulikeboysnotgirlsandIwasscaredbutyou'rejustsokindandbeautifulandyouunderstandmesowellandIjustfellinlovewithyouandyou'resotallandstrongandyoumakemefeelsafeandI'msorrythatI'mjudtbabblingonbutIdon'tknowshatelsetodoandI'mtooembarresedtostopandactuallycan'tstopbecauseI'mnotthinkingstraightand-"
"Ami."
The bluenette stopped to breathe. Her body stiffened when she felt a pair of hands on her shoulders.
"I'm not quite sure what you just said there but I like you too."
Another pop. "ISWEARIWILLGIVEYOYEVERYTHINGYOUEVERWANTEDIWILLGUVEUPEVERYTHINGFORYOUANDMAKEYOUHAPOYFORTHERESTOFYOURLIFEBECAUSEILOVEYOUSOMUCHANDYOUDON'THOWHAPPYIAMRIGHTNOW-"
"Ami, Ami. Slow down."
But she couldn't and continued to babble on as tears of joy streamed down her face. Makoto watched the bluenette in amusement before flicking her head. Almost as if pressing a stop switch the girl ceased. Then gathering the courage of the planet Jupiter, Makoto went to kiss the still bright red genius.
"PANCAKES!" Usagi burst through the door again. Minako and Rei tackled her to the floor.
"USAGI YOU IDIOT THEY WERE IN THE MIDDLE OF A LOVE CONFESSION!" Minako screamed.
"But, but….my pancakes…."
Rei sighed. "BA….KA!"
Makoto and Ami watched the two girls give insults to one another before breaking down in laughter. Of course this would happen. Even though she was disappointed, Makoto couldn't stay mad. At least she now knew that the girl she had grown to like also shared her feelings. For now that would be good enough.
A/N: this was literally supposed to be only like 400-500 words but oh. My. God. I don't know how I got so carried away with it! Maybe it's because I decided to write it all at night sacrificing more of my precious sleep. Ah well, I hope it turned out okay. Thanks for reading!
