A/N: Super long one but I liked this one as I wrote it! Thanks to doc-sama for bouncing this idea off to me!

The hospital was in a mess. People took up most of the seats provided for and the smell of disinfecting solutions hung heavy in the air. Three stretchers took up the side of the corridor, making the available walking space tighter than ever. The dull energy radiating in the air didn't make it better.
Usagi shuddered as she walked through the halls towards where the offices were. Shifting her bag slightly, she pushed a little more confidence into her strides, making sure her posture was straight and her hips to sway seductively as she walked. She was called by Mamoru's colleagues as they were worried he might have overworked himself, staying in the hospital and working for 48 hours straight. He needed rest, but he wasn't willing to take it.
"I don't need to relax, Katsuragi-kun." Mamoru bit out the words furiously, eyes still locked onto the list of medicines in front of him. "Don't make me repeat myself. I'm fine."
Katsuragi threw his hands up in exasperation. It was obvious the Doctor needed rest. Why he kept denying it was out of his understanding. Things had slowed down for a bit now that the other 3 doctors were back in action. Mamoru could afford to take a four hour rest before completing another 2 rounds.
A sharp 'ting' of the call bell distracted him. Ward 3071. Oh crap, the nurse went on her break! He rushed out to attend to the patient instead, all thoughts of chiding Mamoru fleeing his mind.
Usagi approached the counter, catching a glimpse of herself in the glass doors. She had to admit, she looked good. The Luna Pen had dressed her in a tight blazer and short skirt along with stockings and heels to match. She might have looked foreign and professional with her hair being changed to brown and twisted in a bun, but there was a hint of playfulness in her eyes.
"Hi, I'm-" A quick glance at the namecard she dug out of her clutch. "Selene Luna. Here to see a Dr Chiba Mamoru." The nurse didn't even raise her eyes to look at her, mindlessly picking up the phone and dialling the number. Her fingers flew across the keyboard, printing a queue number.
Consultation Room 368, right hand corner, last room. 4 hours." The nurse turned away to serve another patient. The digits on the screen flashed, screening her queue number. Usagi smiled inwardly. She had told his colleagues that she wouldn't get them into trouble with using her own name as it would be too obvious to her husband.
She walked into the room purposefully, knocking before she entered. He wasn't in the room yet, most likely tying up ends for the previous patient. Usagi slid the lock in its slot, arranged her shirt so that it would look decent, yet revealing when she moved.
Mamoru walked into the room from the adjoining unit, sliding the door close as he read the previous patient's report. A familiar scent teased his senses and he bolted the door without realising it.
"What can I do for you, Miss?" Mamoru smiled at her, taking care to run his eyes down her body appreciatively. His body hardened instantly as she moved closer towards him, her clothes revealing more than what they should. Usagi fought to fend off a blush. Part of her felt happy that he was looking at her so heatedly but she was also a little disappointed that he had reactions to women other than herself.
"Selene Luna. Call me Selene." She passed her business card to him. "I'm not too sure, Doctor Chiba. I've been feeling very dizzy these days." To prove her point, she stood up shakily, pretending to stumble a little. "Maybe you can check what's wrong with me?"
Mamoru looked at her name card. Foreign words dotted the card, and the only words he was able to read was her name printed. "Why not you sit on the benchbed first? I'll be with you in a minute." Usagi did as she was told and watched him as he scribbled something down.
He put on his stethoscope, walking towards her and motioning her to turn her back against him. "Breath in, Breathe out." Guiding her back to face him, he pressed the stethoscope to her chest area, intentionally caressing the side of her fleshy globes as he listened to her heartbeat.
"Heartbeat's a little fast." Mamoru remarked smoothly as he turned, marking on the paper. Usagi swallowed hard, knowing the fast heartbeat was due the caress she had felt earlier on. "Would you prescribe me an injection, Doctor Chiba?" She asked innocently.
Her husband smiled, taking a tablet box and bottle of water from his desk's drawers. "No, you don't need the injection right now" Not now, anyway. He walked towards the benchbed and sat on it. "Come here, I'll give you the medication, and you can rest here for a while. We are running low on beds, so you'll have to do with this."
Usagi walked over unsteadily, keeping up the appearance of being dizzy. She stumbled upon reaching him, hand grabbing the lapels of his coat to keep herself steady. Her flat stomach brushed against something hard, and she fought the urge to tell him that she was his wife and he was having reactions to someone else other than her.
Mamoru seated his wife on his lap, ignoring the glare she was shooting him right now. "Take your medicine now, and go to sleep." With that, he kissed her hard, using the tongue to push the tablet and water down her throat. She swallowed, finding her voice again. " Do you kiss every woman you meet, Doctor Chiba?" Her voice was husky as she spoke, her tongue reaching out to lick against the swollen lips.
"Only you, Selene." He smirked as he pressed down the desire to take her on the benchbed right there and then. Mamoru yawned, and suddenly Usagi was on top of him. "It seems like Doctor Chiba is tired too. Will Doctor share this bed with me for a while?" She smiled seductively as her fingers trailed against his jaw..
Three Hours later, Mamoru awoke, fully refreshed. He snuggled against the form of his wife, breathing in her scent that calmed him down. He didn't need to go home. She was his home.
Smiling, he woke her up, watching as she rubbed the sleep from her eyes. "Feeling better, Selene?" He asked as he put on his coat once more. "If you're ready, you're clear to go home. The medicine should have taken effect already"
Usagi rearranged her clothes and hair, taking care to look as proper as she could. "yes, indeed. I feel better already. Thank you, Doctor." She couldn't resist hugging her husband one last time before she left for home, breathing in his scent as much as she could. She unlocked the door and left, her hips swaying seductively.
Mamoru laughed and ran his fingers through his hair as he thought of her reaction when she would stick her hands into the pocket of her blazer. She always did so when she was annoyed. He got back to work with renewed determination, promising himself to finish his work as soon as possible and get home. Home
Usagi was annoyed as she walked out of the hospital. Irritated even. Did he do that with almost every woman that was seductive and sexy? She stuck her hands in her pockets and her fingers found a card. Stunned, she pulled it out and saw that it was the exact business card that she had given to him. Only now, it read 'Selene Luna Terra' with the Luna scratched out in his handwriting.
She groaned out loud in frustration. He had known all along!
