Disclaimer: I do not own Sailor Moon or any of its characters… :D

A/N: Thanks for the reviews! :D and I know the story might be confusing at times but when I say Minako, it means Rei inside Minako's body and vice versa… :D

Oh and your welcome sailor-ice… :D


"Ha! It's been two days since the dinner at that restaurant and I'm still full!" Makoto said as she sat at a booth at the Crown. Her face was leaning on her right palm. "But I can't stop thinking about that sweet bread. It was the most delicious bread I ever tasted. I wish I could get the recipe!" Makoto's eyes were now twinkling.

"The soup was heavenly too! I admit, I don't eat much but I couldn't help myself that time," Ami agreed as she put down the book she was reading at the table.

"I loved all the food there! I got to taste it all! MUWAHAHAHAHA…" Usagi said and laughed evilly. Her attention was suddenly caught elsewhere when Motoki gave the double banana split with two additional scoops of ice cream that she ordered.

"You can still eat after that?" Michiru was amazed. She looked at Usagi and the ice cream several times as Motoki walked away while sweat dropping. "Now I'm convinced that you have a black hole for a stomach. You even took some take out at that restaurant!" Michiru added.

"But you took home several doggie bags too, Michiru!" Makoto exclaimed while pointing a finger at Michiru.

"Well at least, I didn't eat that much while I was there! Unlike some people who made the waiter to put all the sweet bread in a doggie bag! Three large doggie bags!" Michiru snapped back.

"But babe, you took home all the caviar and that white truffle chocolates…" Haruka was stopped as a she was sucker punched at the head. Makoto laughed and said, "Ha! Sucks to be you, Haruka!" Michiru gave a death glare to Makoto and the brunette hid behind Usagi as the latter was finishing her ice cream and was oblivious to the conversation. Ami was laughing at the three. Minako internally thanked that Rei and her sat at the window side of the booth together so that they wouldn't be caught in the middle of the ruckus that was going on.

"So Mina, how was the dinner?" Haruka asked as she sipped her milkshake while a bump can be seen growing on the back of her head.

"It was fine. He asked a lot of questions about how was school, did I need money and what not," Rei answered Haruka as she played with the last piece of cake on her plate using her spoon. Minako noticed this and intertwined her fingers with Minako's free hand and smiled.

'She keeps holding hands with me these days. I could get used to this,' Rei thought as she blushed.

"What did you tell him?" inquired Minako as she too blushed a little bit as she felt Rei's hand squeeze her hand a little. "Sorry, I don't know why he was in a talkative mood that night," Minako continued.

"I said I am doing fine with my studies and that I don't need anything from him and its fine, Rei. Really," Rei stated proudly. "I shouldn't probably tell her that he inquired about me though,' Minako continued to think.

"That's my princess!" Minako whispered to Rei. Rei blushed even more and squeezed Minako's hands again.

"*cough*" Makoto faked a cough and pushed Usagi to the side as to she tried to signal the others so that they can leave the two "love birds" alone without them noticing. Apparently, it worked. The two were busy with the holding hands and glancing that they didn't notice that the others left one by one. Well, Usagi was dragged by Makoto as the odango haired princess wanted to capture everything on camera but was stopped by Haruka and Makoto. After 10 minutes, Rei and Minako finally noticed that they were the only two left at the booth. The two just shrugged and went to Minako's apartment for some last minute preparations.

After cleaning up her room (actually it was only Minako who cleaned while Rei sat in front of the TV and played Sailor V), the two sat on the edge of the bed and talked.

"Just be… energetic and happy… don't be so emo… and everything will be alright!" exclaimed Rei as she held a Sailor V pose.

Minako sweat dropped. "For the nth time, Mina! I am not emo!" Minako said then face palmed herself.

"Sure you are! You're moody and always brooding. The only thing left is to throw some glitters at you then you could play that freaking emo vampire," Rei teased. Minako then gave a death glare at her earning her a chuckle instead. "Haruka and Mako were right! It doesn't suit you when you're in my body!"

Minako stooped low and sweat dropped again. "I can't do the "energizer bunny" and "I am always 100% enthusiastic in everything" mood that you do! It's too hard…" Minako said as she suddenly laid in the bed as her hands were all over the place.

"I trust you, Rei. Besides, I did a perfection impression of you so I bet you can do it too!" exclaimed the miko as she laid beside Minako.

"A perfect impression, eh? Let me see!" Minako then faced Rei. The miko give her a death glare which caused Minako's skin to have goose bumps. "I… I look like that… when I'm glaring?" Minako was taken aback as Rei laughed and nodded. "Now I know why even Haruka shuts up when I do that," the blonde continued and snickered. Rei suddenly got up, fixed her clothes and was about to walk out of the door when Minako caught her wrist and said, "Where are you going?"

"I was just going to get some water. You want some?" Rei asked. Minako then stood up and hugged the miko at the back and replied, "Oh. I thought you were already going to the shrine. Can I ask you a favor?" Minako was now nuzzling Rei's neck. Rei was trying to control herself not to turn around kiss the blonde haired girl.

'I don't know why I'm able to muster the courage to hold her hands and hug her all the time these past few days. I feel really different. Maybe this is a residual effect of being in the body of the Goddess of Love... Ha-ha... It's like its second nature to be sweet and huggable… Ugh. That's not me. Maybe I am emo after all… Just concentrate you, baka! Just ask her…' Minako thought as she held the miko tighter.

Rei was now blushing as she counted to three, sighed and said, "Wh… What favor would you want me to do?" 'Please make me stay… Please… So I could hug you while you sleep…' Rei was pleading internally.

"Umm… Would you please stay with me tonight? I really am nervous about tomorrow," Minako replied. She felt Rei stiffen a little bit and relaxed after she loosened her hug. She was surprised when the miko turned around and cupped her face and said, "Sure my ever brooding miko…" Minako blushed as she noticed that their faces were merely centimeters apart. She was taken aback as she saw her very own eyes look at her but with Minako's enthusiasm and spirit. She internally chuckled and blushed as she felt Rei had finally noticed the close proximity of their faces. Rei was the first to let go while Minako still stood there for a few more seconds.

'Oh Kami! That was close…' They both thought.

"So you want pizza?" Rei asked Minako as she took the latter's hand and walked over to the kitchen.

After eating pizza, the two slept while hugging each other.

When the morning came, Minako was the first to wake up and she noticed Rei's head was on her chest while the miko's arms were hugging her like a teddy bear. She blushed and just stared at Rei until she woke up.

"Good morning sleepy head. You have to go the shrine now to get your uniform. I'll walk you to the bus stop, it'll be faster than walking," Minako stated as she brushed a loose hair and tucked it at the miko's ear.

Rei blushed and said, "Okay."

It took them quite a while before getting up from bed as they found it hard to get up while snuggling into each other's arms. They didn't get to eat breakfast as Rei had to go already to the shrine for her school uniform. After Rei got on the bus, Minako waited for it to turn at the corner before walking towards the school.

'I could get used to this!' Minako mused as she was walking. She was so preoccupied of thinking of more scenarios where she can hug or hold hands with Rei that she didn't notice a black Sedan pulled over to her side. A man with amethyst eyes can be seen as the window of the car slowly opens and said, "Excuse me, Ms. Aino Minako, but will you please accompany me for a little while and let my chauffer drive you to school after."

Rei, in Minako's body, was startled to see Senator Hino, her freaking father, go out of the car and gestured for her to ride with him. She clenched her fists and said, "Thank you for your kind offer, Sir. But I decline. My friends and I didn't have the chance to thank you for the wonderful dinner that you paid for three nights ago, so thank you." She then bowed, stood up again and walked away. She didn't get that far though as she heard the Senator say, "I would like to talk to you about my daughter."

The statement made Minako stop and cringe. Her back was still at the senator as she thought, 'What now? What does he know about Minako?'

"It's just for a few minutes. I know for a fact that your classes won't start for about an hour. It's important that I talk to you," the senator continued as he saw Minako stop on her tracks. "Please," the man with the same amethyst eyes pleaded.

'Please? Did he just say 'PLEASE'?' Minako thought. She felt completely confused. Her father did not use the word please. He just takes what he wants and leaves them if it gets too emotional. She found herself turning around and walking towards the car door.
