Saturday

Usagi wanted to get a new outfit for the concert tonight. "We're seeing Usher," she told Minako on the phone

"OMG YOU'RE SEEING USHER!"

"Don't break my ear drums."

"I love Usher. He's so hot. How much were the tickets?"

"I don't know. Diamond has mine."

"I'm so jealous. Take lots of pictures. We need to get you something hot."

They went to the mall and decided on a white shirt with a blue bodice and a black leather skirt.

"Do you think it's too low cut, Mina-chan?" Serena asked about the shirt.

"No, you look hot! Diamond's going to love it."

Usagi looked in the mirror. It did look good. "Okay then."

She got home with her clothes. Chibiusa was playing a game with Shingo. She would be having her first sleepover today.

"Are you excited Chibiusa?" Usagi asked her.

"Why am I going again?"

"I thought it would be fun for you, to have friends your own age to play with."

"But the kids in my class are boring."

"Maybe they're more fun outside of school. You won't know unless you try."

"Ugh!"

Later in the evening, Usagi got Chibiusa packed and took her to her "friend's" house. "Have fun!"

"Bye!" The girl ran inside.

"My daughter's like that too," the mother said to Usagi as she was leaving.

"Then they'll be best friends." Oh No!

Usagi looked at her watch. Crikes! She had to go get herself ready.

She took a shower, brushed her teeth, washed her face, put on her new clothes and her make up. Hopefully, this isn't too much. She heard her doorbell ring.

Shingo got it. "Usagi is still getting ready."

"I'll be down soon," she called from the stairs, waking up Luna from her nap.

"What are you yelling about?" She looked up and saw Usagi, looking, well, not like Usagi at all. "What are you wearing?"

"I'm going to a concert. What do you think?"

"I think your mother better not see you in that outfit."

She looked in the mirror. "I'll bring a jacket. Good call Luna."

Luna had actually been suggesting wear a different shirt, but oh well! "Have fun."

She came downstairs, almost falling when she saw Diamond. He was wearing a silver shirt under his black leather jacket and what looked like painted on jeans. How was he so hot?

"Way to klutz it Usagi!"

"Shut up, Shingo."

Diamond ignored the exchange, feeling the air in his lungs escape as he looked her up and down. She looked so fucking hot, like bend her over the railing and do her now hot. "Do you like my outfit?" she asked shyly.

"You look amazing." He gave her a quick kiss. "Shall we?"

"Yes. Bye Shingo."

"Whatever Klutz!"

"He's such a butt," Usagi said as they left the house.

"He's your little brother. Of course he's a butt. I think it's in the little brother's guide book."

"Sapphire's not so bad." He's actually pretty cool.

"He had to grow up fast. Back in the day, he was quite the butt."

"Haha!"

His friends wanted to grab drinks before the show. There was a bar down the street from the concert hall. Diamond parked his car in a garage and they walked inside.

"Just smile and we'll be fine," he said to her. With his arm around her waist, they walked to the bar.


The bouncer asked for IDs. He handed over his, and when the bouncer saw Usagi, he looked at her rack and let her go right in. Diamond wanted to slap the perv, but that was the plan.

He took Usagi's hand in his and looked for his friends. He could hear a woman yelling at someone. Esmeralda. "I hear them." He walked towards the voice.

He saw Rubeus getting reamed over something. The boy was looking for an escape. Here it was. "Diamond, you're here, and this lovely lady must be Usagi," the boy in the red tank top kissed both of her cheeks. "You look fabulous. What are you doing with a cad like Diamond?"

The boy was attractive, and a bit flamboyant. It became clear to Usagi how Diamond and the others ended up at the gay bars after the parade last year.

"He may be a jerk, but he's my jerk," she said as she kissed him. Esmeralda rolled her eyes, but even she had to admit, the girl was hot. Diamond had to resist the urge to grab her ass. He didn't want to be too forward with her; clearly, she was less experienced.

"Speaking of jerks, where's Sapphire?" Ruby questioned

"Brooding," Diamond answered. "Oh wait, I mean doing a new Sailor V painting."

"His paintings are good."

"They are, but he needs to get out there and meet real girls, not pine over one in a manga who he'll never meet because it involves leaving the house."

"Drag him out next weekend," Esmeralda said, "or maybe we should kidnap him and make him have fun."

Rubeus and Esmeralda got beers. Diamond wasn't drinking since he had to drive Usagi home. He said he'd get Usagi something if she wanted, but she had never had alcohol before and didn't know what to get.

He ordered her a mint julep.

"A mint julep?" Esmeralda looked at him. "Rubeus, take back his man-card."

"Shut your face, I love mint juleps!" Rubeus went to get one for himself.

Usagi took a sip. It was good. After their drinks, they got in line for the concert.

Once they were inside, Diamond saw there was a dance floor. The opener was playing.

"Let's dance." Diamond led her to the dance floor. His eyes locked on hers as he began to move on the floor. His hands found her hips and she followed his movements. His shirt had no sleeves, exposing his strong arms to her. She could see the muscle definition hinting under his shirt. She bet he looked like a god when he took it off.

Rubeus and Esmeralda went for another drink before the venue bar line got long. They came back to see the couple dancing away. "Damn Odango's lucky," Rubeus muttered as he sipped his beer. He knew his crush on Diamond would be unrequited, so he never said anything. He wanted his friend to be happy, and he looked very happy.

Esmeralda was annoyed with Diamond to say the least. Everyone except his dumb self could tell Rubeus was smitten with him. She wished they'd just air it out, but that would involve Diamond getting a clue.

She put down her empty beer. "Come on, let's dance Ruby!" She was the only one who could call him that.

They got on the floor, Rubeus scanning for any guys who looked like they also liked guys. Nothing yet, but hopefully something would come along when Usher was actually on stage.

The opening act was a local indie rock band, their music reminded Diamond of Fleet Foxes. It was fun to listen to, but not the best dance beat. That was what Usher was for.

Usagi usually felt nervous dancing in the crowd, but with Diamond, she felt great. She also felt a bit thirsty. "Can we get some water?"

They went up to the bar and got two cups of water. Usagi also decided to go to the bathroom before the band came on. When she came back, she saw Diamond talking to one of the bartenders. They had been talking about motorcycles. Diamond didn't ride himself, but his father had been a big biker and he still had the old man's bike. Maybe he should restore it.

The bartender offered them each a drink on the house. Diamond went with a soda and Usagi got another mint julep.

"Have fun kids," he said with a wink. Diamond left a tip for the man and they were back to the dance floor.

The crew was on stage, setting up the mikes and the lights and it would be some time before Usher would actually come on stage.

About twenty minutes later, a blue light filled the room. Usher emerged from a suspended rope. He jumped onto the stage. When he landed, the floor lit up and the floor's patterns matched Usher's dance moves. U Don't Have to Call started to play. Usagi started to feel warm from the whiskey and her hands started moving up to Diamond's chest. This feels nice! She thought to herself.

He pulled her closer, their bodies mere inches from each other as they moved back and forth, in their own world. He could smell her perfume. She smelled like flowers and her hair smelled good too.

The next song was You Make Me Wanna. The soothing lyrics combined with Usagi's innocent gaze proved too much for Diamond and he pulled her towards his mouth for a kiss. His arms wrapped around her back, pulling her to his chest.

She moaned into his mouth, the feeling of his body on hers was making her heat up quickly and her leg started moving outside of his, subconsciously trying to get some kind of friction.

Diamond could feel the heat emanating from her thighs. He wanted her so badly. He pulled away from her mouth, leaving her breathing heavily and wanting for more. They continued to dance, his hands on her hips, guiding her closer to his body. His thigh moved between her legs, and when he grazed her, she let out the most amazing moan, "OHHH!"

Her face turned pink as his lips moved to her neck, kissing and nipping at it as he pulled her hips forward, using his leg to create friction for her. The two writhed like they were in heat. Any inhibitions Usagi had were gone as she pulled him to her for another kiss. Her tongue plunged into his mouth, battling his tongue in a lustful exchange as his hands grabbed her ass and squeezed. She broke the kiss to moan again.

They didn't leave each other the entire show. The room only got hotter as they danced. They sweat so much that their clothes clung to their bodies, making his muscles very visible.

DJ's Got Us Falling in Love started to play. While the crowd watched Usher and his backup dancers as he moved across the stage, Usagi had eyes on Diamond. How was he even more attractive covered in sweat and with his hair all messy from her running her fingers through it? She felt her hips beginning to buck against him.

This is what lust feels like. She always felt awkward when her friends talked about sex. She hadn't understood the appeal, other than it being a special gift for her husband, but now she knew what it meant to want it for her. She wanted Diamond, but it was too soon. They hadn't been together that long, and before this concert, she hadn't done anything other than kiss. She was nowhere near ready to let him see her naked, much less do anything further.

Diamond liked having Usagi's eyes on him, but he realized she hadn't actually seen most of the show. He spun her around, so her back was facing him and he pulled her closer, grinding against her perfect ass as they both watched the stage. Now Yeah was playing. Diamond held back a grunt as he felt his Odango's hips moving backwards to match his movements.

Rubeus was having a great time. He hadn't found Prince Charming, but he did have fun people watching. "Look at that couple over there. The guy keeps checking out other girls and his girlfriend's getting pissed." Esmeralda looked up just in time to see the guy getting slapped.

"Nice!" They looked back. No sign of Diamond and Usagi. Then again, who could see them in such a crowd?

Usher ended the show with Scream. Usagi thought it was most fitting. Her hormones were raging. Diamond's hand kept teasing her stomach as his lips hit her neck. She started moaning as he nipped at her ear.

After the last song, they went to get in line. Usagi got a poster for Minako. Rubeus and Esmeralda saw them on their way out.

"Let's go clubbing next week," Esmarelda suggested.

"Drag Sapphire too!"

Diamond and Usagi walked to his car and he got ready to drive them home. He hadn't had any alcohol, but he felt wasted right now.

Neither of them said a word as he started to drive; jazz was the only sound coming from the car, but the air was filled with sexual tension. Diamond was still sweating like crazy. Once the sweat got in his eyes, he pulled over.

"I need a minute," he said as he reached for a towel, wiping off his eyes. Once he could see again, he drove her home.

"Thanks for tonight. It was a great show." She kissed him goodnight, a more chaste kiss than before. She didn't think she could handle another intense kiss that night.

"Goodnight Odango."

Usagi zipped up her jacket before she went inside.

She locked the front door behind her and got up to her bedroom.

"Ugh!" Luna said when she came in.

"What?"

"You smell like booze and sweat."

"Sorry, the concert was packed." Usagi took a shower before she went to bed. She made it a cold one. I hear this helps. The cold water hardened her nipples, instantly making them eager to be touched. Maybe, not so much. She dried off and put on her nightgown.

"Goodnight Luna!"

"Goodnight Usagi."

Diamond got home and he knew he needed a shower. The cold water his head, washing away some of the tension. He washed his hair and blow-dried it before going to his room. He closed his eyes when he went under his sheets, thoughts of Usagi floating through his mind. He reached for the lubricant that sits on his dresser.


On Monday, Minako wanted to hear all about the concert. Usagi handed her a shirt. "OMG Thanks Usagi-chan."

"I hope this makes up for not taking any pictures. I was too distracted."

"Was Usher that hot?"

"Diamond's the one who had me distracted. I couldn't stop looking at him." She turned pink recalling how flustered he had made her.

"What was he wearing?"

"He had this silver shirt that hugged his muscles, and the tightest jeans I've ever seen." Usagi sighed happily

"Who are you Mako-chan?"

"What about me?" the girl asked.

"Minako was saying that you two are both hornballs," Rei said snidely.

"Like you aren't Rei. I know what you keep behind your manga," aka her yuri hentai.

"Don't you dare!"

"Ohh! What do you keep there?" Usagi asked innocently.

"Nothing for Odangos!"

"AW! But I want to know." Usagi never found out what was behind the manga.

Wednesday

Diamond was on his way to meet Usagi at Crown. "Sapphire, do you want to come with?"

"Why? So I can be a third wheel?"

"She has four female friends that will be there, attractive friends, single friends, and did I mention that one of them looks like Sailor V?"

Sapphire came out of his room, "get the fuck out!"

"No really, she does. Actually I met her before Odango, but I didn't really think about it."

"Well, you better not be lying to me." Sapphire changed into a button down shirt. He went with blue.

"Come on! What are you doing? Putting on your lipstick."

"Shut up Diamond!"

The brothers headed for the arcade. By the time they got there, the five girls were already sitting down with Chibiusa, who was playing with a Gameboy. "This is great. Now when Usagi is rambling at me, I can focus on this."

"This is what I get for getting you a Gameboy."

"You didn't get it. You found it in the basement."

"Yes, and then I bought you batteries."

"Meh!"

"Hello, Ladies" Diamond said as he sat down next to Usagi. He kissed her cheek. "This is my brother, Sapphire. Sapphire this is Chibiusa, Rei, Ami, Makoto and last but not least, Minako."

She did look like Sailor V, only prettier. "Uh Hi!"

Minako took a look. He was cute and his blush was adorable. "Do I make you nervous?"

"No," he lied, his voice betraying him.

"I don't bite." She patted the chair. He sat down next to her. She even smells good. "So what do you do for fun?" She asked him.

"I like to draw, and paint and I have a manga collection."

"Do you. What's your favorite?"

"Promise not to laugh."

"I won't laugh."

"I have every Sailor V manga ever, and some fan art."

Minako found this endearing.

Rei was cracking up.

Minako glared at her.

"I promised nothing."

"You have them all too Rei!" Makoto started. "And behind the manga is …."

"Shut up about that!"

"Seriously, what's behind the manga?" Usagi was so curious.

"Her secret porn collection," Diamond teased.

"Fuck you!" she stormed off.

Chibiusa looked up. "She dropped an F-bomb!"

"What did I say? It was just a joke."

"I think it hit too close to home," Ami said quietly.

"Really? Oops. I should apologize."

"Seriously," Usagi said. "What is behind the manga?" She still didn't get it.

"More manga," Sapphire told her, feigning seriousness.

"Oh, how boring!" Usagi told him. "But why was Rei so upset then?"

Rei wanted to punch the wall but it was brick, so she didn't. She didn't even hear Diamond come up to her.

"I didn't mean to embarrass you. I thought only Sapphire hid porn behind his manga collection."

She glared at him.

"I mean everyone watches porn, well everyone except Usagi I think, but she's on her own pace."

Rei cracked a smile. "I just don't want Usagi to know about it," and possibly look at it.

There was only reason for her to care. "Because you like girls," and because you like Usagi.

"How did you?"

"Gay best friend. Anyway, she's not going to care either way. She thinks you're great."

"She does?"

"You should hear her. Rei's so good at martial arts and how does she get her hair so straight and shiny? It's like she goes out of her way to look good before she beats people up."

"Haha! Maybe I overreacted."

"Maybe, but it happens. How about we go inside and get some ice cream, on me?"

"Well in that case, I want a sundae."

They came back to Crown where the rest of the group was talking about something.

"We should go dancing," Makoto insisted.

"There's a club my friends wanted to go to on Saturday. The Verve," which happened to be one of the hottest gay clubs in Tokyo.

Rei was excited. Maybe she'd meet a hot girl there. "Let's do it!"

Diamond nudged his brother before they left. "You should ask Minako out."

"But I just met her."

"Not a formal date, but coffee or tea or a trip to the comic book store. Get in the game, bro!"

Sapphire hissed and then he almost choked on his water when it was time. He had a mini coughing fit. "Minako, did you want do something after school with me on Friday, like maybe go to the tea shop or the comic book store?"

"Sure." The two exchanged phone numbers.
