This one is kind of sad. Just warning you all.

Disclaimer still applies.

Sailor Moon watched as the youma she just dusted blew in the winds, its remains disappearing into the night. She sighed. Such a long day… first Shingo tripped her and made her even more late, then she fought with Mamoru over her lack of punctuality, and then Mina dragged her to her house to help her pick out a dress for her date. She pulled her crumpled test out of her glove, and looked over it. Boy, is she going to get an earful when she returns home. Her thoughts were cut off when she heard a leaf crunch just behind her. She gasped and whipped around, her body almost hitting the person behind her.

"T-Tuxedo Mask…" she said, getting over her quick scare. "You scared me." He smiled, and her knees went weak at the sight.

"What's that?" he asked, looking at the paper in her hands. She looked down at the paper, and her eyes went wide.

"U-uh… I… It's- It's nothing…" she said, folding the paper back up. He held out his hand, and she hesitated. She trusted him… he wouldn't make fun of her like someone. She slowly gave him the paper, and he unfolded it. 45. "I… I get so tired at night… especially after fighting a youma… I can't study…" she said. It was the truth. Saving the town every night spent a ton of her energy. He handed it back.

"It's okay. I have the same problem." he whispered. She sighed in relief and tucked it back into her glove. A breeze came by, and she shivered. Tuxedo Mask noticed goosebumps on her arms, and stepped closer to her, wrapping his cloak around her. Their chests were pressed together, and Sailor Moon suddenly had goosebumps for a completely different reason than being cold. "Cold?" he asked. Her eyes flicked up to his.

"Y-yeah." she replied. She felt his arms tighten around her, their faces inches apart. Tuxedo Mask tilted his head forward, his face getting closer and closer to the flustered blonde's face. Their lips brushed against each other. "Tuxedo Mask…" she murmured, her eyes closing. He closed his eyes and pressed his lips to hers. Sailor Moon lifted her arms from her sides and to his biceps. Her body pressed harder into his, and he rubbed his hands in circles on her back. The kiss became more wild, and they began to explore each other's bodies. Sailor Moon ran her hands up his shoulders and rested them on his chest, pulling the collar of his jacket toward her. His hands raised to cup her face, his fingers lacing through her long pigtails resting on her shoulders. He pulled away and released her lips, burying his face into the crook of her neck.

"It's getting late," he said. She nodded, her eyes still closed. He pecked her neck and shoulder, his hands back on her waist. His grip on her loosened, and he stepped back, but she pulled him.

"Don't go…" she whispered, her face hidden in his coat. He became a little concerned at her urgent tone. She stared up at him, searching for something in his eyes. He pulled her to him, trying to comfort her. "Just… five more minutes…" she whispered. She wanted this to last as long as possible before she got home and faced her mother. He kissed down her face, her eyelids, her nose, her lips.

"Are you okay?" he asked against her lips. He laid his forehead against hers. She nodded.

"Fine."

"You sure?" he looked into her eyes. She hesitated before answering.

"I'm a little stressed…" she whispered. He held her tightly.

"Whatever you're stressed over, I'm sure you'll get through it," he said, not wanting to pry. Afterall, they only knew each other as superheroes, not personally. He saw her perfect smile, and kissed her once again.

"Thank you…" she laid her head on his chest, sighing. She didn't want to leave his arms. His strong grip was so comforting, and his embrace made her forget her troubles. He, too, felt the same way. "I have to go…" she whispered sadly. She squeezed him tightly as he nodded. Oh, why can't he refuse to let me go?! she thought, feeling his hands slip off of her. She let go of him regretfully, and pecked him once on the lips before turning toward her home.

Sorry guys, but lately I've been a little stressed out, so I was in the mood to write something a little more angst-y. But I really like this one.

What do you guys think?
