AN: First of all I hope you all had an amazing Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, or whatever the hell you do during the holidays :) Second of all this chapter turned out to be a hell of a lot longer than I initially planned for it to be, but hopefully you guys enjoy the lengthiness :D I apologize in advance for any mistakes and any parts that don't flow perfectly. I've deleted, re-written, and edited this chapter a billion times. This entire chapter is completely inspired by the song Colors (stripped.) by Halsey as you can probably already tell by the title. The song in the beginning is a song called Cake by Melanie Martinez. I fully encourage you to listen to both songs :) Anyways, enough jibber jabber! On to the new chapter! Hope you enjoy! :D

You're dripping like a saturated sunrise
You're spilling like an overflowing sink
You're ripped at every edge but you're a masterpiece
And now i'm tearing through the pages and the ink
-Halsey 'Colors'


Chapter 15: Colors

Minako sighed as she settled onto her towel, moving her body around to dig herself into the sand effectively spreading out the lump of sand beneath her towel that had been pushing into her lower back. It was a beautiful sunny day, but the blonde wore a frown as if it had been raining all day as she put her headphones into her ears, pushing play on her ipod.

Your skin is warm like an oven
Your kiss is sugary sweet
Your fingers feel like cotton
When you put your arms around me
I feel like I'm just missing
Something whenever you leave
We've got all the ingredients
Except you loving me
And respectfully...

'Three weeks . . . It's been three weeks since the . . . incident happened.' She thought sourly to herself. 'Two and a half weeks since I've seen Rei. I mean sure I've been avoiding her like the plague . . . or has she been avoiding me? Every time I decide to finally hang out with the gang she's conveniently busy. What gives her the right to dodge me? She's the one who kissed me out of nowhere and then acted like nothing happened the second her girlfriend showed up not me. Ugh . . . her girlfriend . . . Lucy . . . I can't stand that girl. What the Hell does Rei see in her anyways?'

Minako felt irritated just thinking about Rei's actions or lack there of the last couple of weeks and turned that irritation towards her friends who were running late as always. She grabbed her phone, pulling her sunglasses up as she sent a quick text to Usagi. 'Hurry up!'

She placed her phone back down and not one minute later she heard it buzzing in her purse, quickly picking it up to see her princess' response. 'Just woke up! Sorry Mina-chan! I'll be there in thirty minutes!'

I'm not a piece of cake
For you to just discard
While you walk away
With the frosting of my heart
So I'm taking back
What's mine, you'll miss
The slice of heaven that
I gave to you last night

"Typical." Minako grumbled to herself, not bothering to reply as she tossed her phone carelessly back into her purse.

"I thought we all agreed we were going to stay out of this whole thing between Minako and Rei." Makoto sighed as she climbed the endless stairs of the Hikawa Shrine with Usagi and Ami.

"We are!" Usagi insisted with a smile as she shoved her phone back into her pocket. "We're just giving them a little . . . push!"

"More like a shove if you ask me." Ami mumbled as they approached the miko's front door.

Rei laid in bed, her eyes shut tightly, ipod blasting in her ears, and her brow furrowed as she tried to block out thoughts of the blonde. 'It's been three weeks . . . If Minako didn't hate me before she definitely hates me now. I just can't trust myself around her . . . and I promised Lucy after our little fight that we would work on our relationship and that I would stay away from Minako, but. . .I didn't think it would feel like this, like a piece of myself is missing, but I want things to work with Lucy . . . right?'

You smell just like vanilla
You taste like buttercream
You're filling up my senses
With empty calories
I feel like I'm just missing
Something whenever you leave
We've got all the ingredients
Except you needing me
So respectfully...

'But it's not like I can stay away from Minako for long though . . . ' Rei let out an irritated sound, rolling onto her side. 'She is my commander and I have responsibilities, but it's not like I can tell Lucy that. Ugh! Why did I have to complicate things? Why did I have to kiss her? Why did she have to kiss me back . . .? Usually I would go to the flames for comfort, but I can't even do that anymore! All they do is show me images of a beautiful past life where Minako and I were together . . .'

I'm not a piece of cake
For you to just discard
While you walk away
With the frosting of my heart
So I'm taking back
What's mine, you'll miss
The slice of heaven that
I gave to you last night

Before Rei could delve any deeper into her doubt and self loathing she heard a loud pounding through her blaring music, making her sit upright in bed, pulling out her headphones.

"Reiiiiii-chan!" Usagi yelled while she pounded on the miko's front door.

"What the fuck do you think you're doing dumpling head?" Rei growled, yanking her door open almost to have the blonde's hand collide with her head.

"You wouldn't respond to any of my texts." Usagi pouted.

"Did you ever think that gee maybe I was busy?" Rei sent her famous glare at her princess.

"You're always busy running the shrine these days. You need a break." The blonde crossed her arms.

"Usagi-"

"She's right." Makoto interrupted before Rei could scold their princess.

"Not you too Makoto." Rei sighed, pinching the bridge of her nose.

"Please just come to the beach with us for a little bit. We all miss hanging out with you. We never see you anymore." Usagi put on her best puppy dog face.

"I see you guys like twice a week at least."

"Please!" The blonde insisted.

"This is just probably another one of your little ploys to make me see Minako." Rei glared at Usagi, causing the blonde to start sweating. 'Damn your intuition Rei-chan.'

"I don't see her here do you?" Ami raised an eyebrow.

Rei tore her scrutinizing gaze from a very fearful moon princess to look over at Ami. "So this isn't a trick . . .?"

"No Rei. This isn't a trick. Your friends just want you to go to the beach with them and enjoy the nice weather, but if you think that little of us then by all means stay home sulking." Makoto added in before turning around and heading back towards the stairs with Ami following suit.

"You guys!" Usagi stomped her foot, turning to her retreating guards.

"Fine . . . I'll go. Let me just put on my bikini and text Lucy so she doesn't flip her shit on me." Rei sighed, heading back inside, failing to see the surprised look on Usagi's face.

"It worked . . .? It worked you guys!" Usagi beamed, running up to her friends.

"She's not going to be happy when she realizes we lied." Makoto sighed, already getting a headache just thinking about it.

"She'll thank us one day." Usagi smiled, rocking back and forth on her heels.

"Alright. I'm ready." Rei came outside sporting a red bikini top with little short shorts. "I texted Lucy and she said she's going to meet us there."

"Oh?" Usagi gulped. "That's great." The blonde plastered a fake smile on her face to hide her panic. 'This might not go as well as I hoped . . .'

When they got to the beach Usagi searched around, looking for where Minako had said she would be, but couldn't seem to find her anywhere.

"Why are you being so picky dumpling head? Just choose a spot and lay your towel down." Rei growled.

"We uh . . . we need to find the right spot and angle so the sun hits us um . . . just right." Usagi laughed nervously while Rei just narrowed her eyes at her nervous friend.

"You're acting weird. I'm setting up here." Rei placed her towel on the warm sand, sliding her shorts down her legs before she laid down on her stomach while her friends hesitantly followed suit.

"There you guys are! What the hell took you so long?" Came the voice Rei wasn't expecting to hear.

"We uh . . . had to stop to um get . . ." Usagi stuttered while Rei turned over onto her back to make sure she wasn't hearing things.

"Rei?" Minako raised an eyebrow while Rei looked up at the blonde in awe. The sun shone behind the dripping wet Venusian making her glow and seem almost god like in her white bikini that made her skin look even more tan.

Rei sat there with her mouth hanging open looking up the blonde's long toned legs to her perfect hips, her tight stomach and then her eyes landed on a water droplet sliding down the blonde's cleavage and Rei's mouth went dry. 'Oh how I wish I was that droplet of water . . . wait! No! This is exactly why I've been avoiding her . . .'

"Hey there guys!" Came another voice Rei definitely didn't want to hear right now.

"H-hey Lucy!" Rei scrambled to her feet, turning her attention to her girlfriend, her face beat red.

"Sorry it took me so long." Lucy pecked her girlfriend on the lips before she laid her towel next to the miko's.

"I'm glad you could make it Lucy." Minako smiled the fake smile she had grown so accustomed to wearing before moving her towel, settling herself next to Usagi. "I'm going to kill you." Minako growled under her breath.

"Mina-chan . . ." Usagi started to sweat seeing the death glare the other blonde was giving her.

"I didn't know you were going to be here Nina" Lucy sent her girlfriend a pointed glare, leaving Rei to squirm uncomfortably.

"Usagi has always been terrible at letting people in on her plans. Isn't that right dumpling head?" Minako smiled fakely, pinching Usagi's leg, making the moon princess yelp.

"S-sorry . . . must have slipped my mind." Usagi laughed nervously.

"Well anyways I was happy when I got the text from Rei that everyone was going to the beach. I haven't seen you guys since that masquerade. That was some crazy shit . . ." Lucy commented as she took off her shorts and shirt to reveal a black bikini.

"Yeah, sure was." Minako glared over at Rei before laying down to let the warm rays of the sun bathe her.

"Thank god those sailor scouts showed up." Lucy laid down, closing her eyes while the group felt a small sense of pride. "That blonde one, what's her name . . . oh Sailor Venus seemed kind of crazy though."

Minako grit her teeth, balling her hand into a tight fist. 'She's been here all of one minute and I already want to punch her.' "Crazy? How so?" Minako tried her best not to look as pissed as she was.

"Didn't you see what she did to that thing with a broken bottle?" Lucy laughed.

"She saved you." Minako glared over at Rei's girlfriend.

"My Reiko saved me." Lucy smiled, grabbing the raven haired girl's hand who looked like she wanted to be anywhere but there.

"I'm going to go swimming." Rei suddenly jumped up, unable to bear the tension, heading over to Usagi. "You guys should come with." The miko glared down at Usagi, Makoto, and Ami.

"I -" Ami started.

"It will be fun." Rei growled, grabbing Usagi and Ami's hands while Makoto begrudgingly followed.

"Aren't you going to go with them?" Minako sat up and raised an eyebrow, looking over at Lucy while her friends went into the water.

"No. I can't stand the beach." Lucy replied, taking out the fake tone in her voice she saved for Rei and the others.

"Then why did you come?" Minako let her irritation slip through.

"Because I don't trust you." Lucy smiled her wolfish smile at the blonde.

"The feeling is mutual." Minako laid back down, putting her sunglasses back over her eyes.

"I just think it's kind of funny how you're always following Rei around like a lost puppy."

"We have the same friends. We're bound to run into each other. I would hardly call that following her around like a lost puppy." Minako scoffed.

"But when Sailor Venus showed up and my Reiko was in trouble you were nowhere to be found."

"Okay?" Minako tried to hide the panic in her voice. 'There's no way she knows . . .'

"And you know you two do look a lot alike . . ." Lucy looked over to the blonde who seemed calm and collected on the surface.

"What are you trying to say Lucy? Is this going to end with some stupid blonde joke?" Minako tried to play off her panic as irritation.

"Don't try to bullshit me." Lucy glared over at the sunbathing senshi. "I'm on to you."

"I have no idea what the fuck you're talking about Lucy. It sounds like you're the crazy one." Minako stood up, stretching before she tossed her sunglasses off to the side and smiled at Rei's pissed off girlfriend. "You know . . . you should really see a doctor about these delusions." And with that Minako walked to where her friends seemed to be in a heated conversation in the water.

"N-now Rei-chan. Don't do anything you're going to regret." Usagi whined while she was being dragged along with Ami.

"Oh, I won't regret this." Rei pushed both Usagi and Ami into a wave, sending them crashing into the water.

"You know that won't work with me right?" Makoto raised an eyebrow when Rei turned around to look at her.

"You're an asshole. You fucking lied! I expected this from Usagi, but not you! And especially not you Ami!" Rei turned back to Ami who finally got to her feet.

"Rei . . ." Ami started.

"You guys had no right to -"

"To what? Get our team back together which is falling apart, because of some personal business between you and Minako?" Makoto crossed her arms. "You guys do whatever you want, but there is a real threat out there and you guys are acting like children. We shouldn't be fighting amongst ourselves like this. We need to be focused on whatever the fuck is after us." Makoto glared at the raven haired girl who stood there sheepishly.

"I just . . ." Rei started.

"You just got hurt Rei. I get it. We all do. But you don't get to just disappear whenever you want. We need you!" Makoto stalked towards the dumbstruck Martian.

"Not Minako." Rei scoffed.

"Especially Minako you idiot!" Makoto shoved Rei into the water.

"Hey!" Rei jumped back up only to be shoved right back into the water by the tall brunette.

"The first one was for me . . . the second one was for Ami." Makoto grinned down at the fuming Martian.

"Not funny." Rei glared up at Makoto.

"Get her again for me!" Usagi cheered behind the safety of Makoto.

"Dumpling head." Rei growled as she started to get up to chase the blonde.

"I'm heading out." Came Minako's voice behind the group of girls, effectively stopping whatever free for all was about to happen.

"But we just got here." Usagi whined, turning around to face the Venusian.

"Well then maybe you should have been on time." The love senshi glared at their princess. "Anyways, we need to have a meeting at Rei's place . . . tonight."

"What? Why is it always my place?" Rei sighed, but stopped complaining the second she saw the look on her commander's face.

"Rei's place. 0900." Minako sent one last glare at the fire senshi, turning around to leave, but stopped before she got too far away, looking at Rei behind her shoulder. "And make sure your girlfriend isn't there. That's an order." And with that Minako was gone.

"Maybe we shouldn't have left those two alone." Makoto rubbed the back of her head.

"You think?" Rei glared at Makoto before she went out to her girlfriend. "Lucy . . . I swear I didn't know she was going to be here . . ." The flustered Martian started to explain the second she reached her girlfriend.

"Yeah Rei, I'm sure you had no idea." Lucy glared up at the miko, standing up, and grabbing her towel. "You made me look so fucking stupid."

"You didn't -"

"I don't want to hear it Rei. Get your shit together or I'm gone." Lucy put her shorts back on, then her shirt.

"Where are you going?" Rei tried to grab her girlfriend's hand only to have Lucy yank it out of her grasp.

"I fucking hate the beach and I fucking hate that girl. It's me or her." The pink haired girl crossed her arms.

"I already told you I choose you . . ." Rei said softly with not much conviction.

"Clearly you haven't chosen me. I don't want to see her face again." Lucy's death stare bored straight through Rei.

"You won't. I-I'll tell her -"

"Don't tell her anything. Just stay the fuck away from her like you told me you would." Lucy coldly put her sunglasses on her face.

"Lucy -"

"I'll see you later Rei." And with that Lucy was gone leaving a very conflicted miko in her wake.

'Don't ever fucking forget.' Venus' words clung to Rei and she couldn't shake them off. 'I couldn't if I tried.' The Martian thought grumpily to herself before grabbing her clothes and heading back to the shrine.

Nine o'clock rolled around and everyone was sitting around Rei's living room table nervously waiting for Minako who had yet to arrive.

"She told everyone to be here at nine and she's late." Rei growled, looking up at the ticking clock, trying to hide how anxious she was. 'Clearly you haven't chosen me.' Those words kept replaying though Rei's head with flashes of Minako and her playing in the background over and over again. 'I can't keep thinking like this . . . I . . . I have to be firm and put my foot down . . .'

"I'm five minutes late. Chill." Came Minako's voice as she breezed into Rei's house like she owned the place.

"Why did you call this meeting?" Rei crossed her arms, trying to shake those thoughts out of her head.

"Because we have a serious fucking problem." The blonde glared over at Rei.

"What's going on Minako? Did you figure out who is after us?" Makoto stood up worriedly.

"No. It's a whole different problem . . . Lucy knows." Minako clenched her fist.

"Lucy?" Rei raised an eyebrow. "What exactly does she know?"

"She knows I'm Sailor Venus! And if she figured that out it definitely won't take her long to find out about you guys." Minako's blue eyes pierced Rei's confused amethyst ones.

"How in the world did you come to that conclusion? Is this because she said she thought Sailor Venus is crazy?" Rei rolled her eyes.

"She fucking told me!" Minako couldn't hide her panic anymore.

"When did that happen?" Ami looked confused. "What did she say?"

"She said she thought it was funny how when Rei was in danger Sailor Venus saved her and I was nowhere to be found and went on to say how much we look alike."

"That doesn't mean she knows you're -"

"She knows." Venus gritted her teeth. "You need to break things off with her Rei. She could expose us and we would be in some real serious shit then."

Rei was quiet for a moment, mulling over the blondes words and then thinking back to Lucy's. 'Lucy is telling me to stop seeing Minako and Minako is telling me to break up with Lucy . . . what am I supposed to do? Can't a girl catch a break . . .?'

"Did you hear me Rei? You need to break things off with Lucy." Minako's voice snapped Rei out of her thoughts.

"Isn't that kind of a rash decision . . .?" Ami tentatively cut in.

"Do you want to risk your safety along with the safety of everyone you know just so Rei can get laid?" Minako snapped causing a fire to ignite in the martian's chest.

"Oh, I get it now." Rei broke her silence, glaring at the blonde. "This is just some ploy to make me break up with my girlfriend."

"What!?"

"I'm not going to break up with my girlfriend just because you've made up some bullshit story to hide the fact that you're jealous." Rei crossed her arms.

"Don't be so full of yourself. This isn't about you and I'm most definitely not jealous. I have a boyfriend for kami's sake!" Minako threw up her arms.

"You don't have a fucking boyfriend." Rei growled, stepping closer to Minako.

"I do, but that has absolutely nothing to do with this." The blonde sighed.

"Who?" The raven haired girl narrowed her eyes while Usagi, Makoto, and Ami shifted uncomfortably.

"I don't think we should be here for this." Makoto said quietly to Ami and Usagi who nodded in agreement. "Hey guys -"

"Like I said that has absolutely nothing to do with this and that is none of your fucking business." Minako glared back at the fire senshi.

"Oh so Lucy is your business, but this new boyfriend isn't any of mine? I mean what if he figures out who we are and exposes us?" Rei replied mockingly while Usagi, Makoto, and Ami quietly made their daring escape out of Rei's house. "It's Jake isn't it."

"I'm telling you your girlfriend could potentially expose all of our identities and all you're worried about is my boyfriend? Are you kidding me Rei?" Minako threw her hands up in disbelief.

"I'll break up with Lucy when you break up with Jake. Fair is fair." Rei glared at her commander.

"Jake isn't threatening to expose me or us. Jake isn't even smart enough to figure something like that out. In fact he has absolutely nothing to do with this!" The blonde was letting her irritation get the best of her.

"So it is Jake!" Rei exclaimed, the fire raging even larger now in her chest.

"I never said that! Kami! You're acting like such a child!"

"I'm acting like a child? You have to be kidding me right?" Rei rolled her eyes, walking away from the blonde, and heading up to her room. "I'm fucking done with this meeting. You can see yourself out."

"Don't walk away from me!" Minako stormed after the raven haired girl until she was standing in the doorway of her bedroom looking at Rei's back. "You're going to break up with Lucy and that's an order."

"You can't order me to do that." Rei gritted her teeth, looking down. "You can't use me, toss me aside, then tell me to leave my girlfriend when I've moved on. For a Venusian you're fucking heartless."

"I'm heartless?" Minako clenched her fist, her anger bubbling over as she stepped into Rei's room, stopping to stand right behind the miko. "At least I'm not a liar and even though you're a Martian . . ." Minako leaned forward, speaking softly into Rei's ear as if she was telling her a deep dark secret. ". . . you're a fucking coward."

"How am I a liar?" Rei turned around, coming face to face with Minako, amethyst clashing with blue as they came toe to toe with each other. "And I am not a fucking coward." She said lowly in a dangerous tone she saved for her enemies.

"You told me you loved me." Minako's voice betrayed her as it wavered.

"And you fucking ran away." Rei growled.

"And so did you." The blonde glared defiantly back at the Martian, her words stinging the warrior.

"I-"

"Go on Rei. Tell me I'm wrong." Minako challenged the fire senshi.

"I . . . I didn't lie." Rei finally broke eye contact, looking off to the side, swallowing the lump in her throat. "I did love you . . ."

"But not anymore." Minako bit her lower lip, looking down to hide the stray tear that escaped her tear duct slowly sliding down her cheek.

"Why does it even matter?" Rei replied bitterly.

"Because . . . " Minako trailed off. The words were on the tip of her tongue, but she didn't know if she could say them out loud.

"Because nothing." Rei shot back when the silence became too much for her. "It doesn't really matter at all." 'At least not to you anyways.' Rei thought sourly to herself.

"Of course it matters . . ." Minako clenched her hand into a tight fist, her insides shaking as she struggled with her courage.

"Give me one good reason why it matters anymore." Rei pinched the bridge of her nose.

"Because . . ." Minako furrowed her brow, swallowing back her fear and doubt. "Because I love you." Minako said it so softly Rei almost missed it.

"W-what?" Her amethyst eyes widened and all of the anger she felt dissipated into the air when she looked over at Minako who had her head bent down, her blonde bangs covering her eyes, and her fists clenched tightly at her sides.

Minako looked up with sparkling blue eyes, placed her hand on the back of Rei's neck, and pierced the Martian deeper than any sword could with her gaze. "I love you Rei." Before Rei could reply Minako closed the gap between them and pressed her lips against Rei's in a soft kiss.

For a moment Rei just stood there with wide eyes, clearly shellshocked, but once her brain caught up with what was happening her eyes fluttered shut, and she gently cupped Minako's face with her hands as she kissed her back. It was unlike all of the other kisses they had shared before. The kiss wasn't drunk and hasty, it was slow and deliberate. It was laced with a hint of desire, but had an overwhelming feeling of love.

As they started to move their lips perfectly in sync the kiss deepened and became more needy as Minako buried her hands in Rei's dark locks, pulling her closer while Rei's hands moved down to her waist. With their bodies pressed tightly against each other Rei ran her hands up under the back of the blonde's shirt, letting out a content sigh against Minako's lips at first contact of skin on skin.

Rei gripped the hem of Minako's shirt, slowly lifting it up until the blonde got the hint to break the kiss and pulled away, lifting her arms up so the miko could rid her of the offending clothing, leaving her in her white lace bra and skirt. The second the shirt hit the floor Rei stepped back into Minako's personal space, gripping her hips, and pulling her closer to feel her body heat as she ran the tip of her nose up the nape of the blonde's neck taking in the feel of her skin and her sweet scent.

"Rei." Minako let out a soft sigh as the miko started kissing her neck, and sucking on skin to leave her mark, her head becoming fuzzy from the attention, but snapped out of it when she remembered a certain small detail. "Wait Rei . . ." Minako stepped back while Rei looked completely confused. "What about Lucy?"

Minako could see the miko's wheels turning, a serious look adorning Rei's face as Lucy's words ran through her head, but the fire senshi leaned in, capturing the blonde's lips in a searing kiss that made her lose all sense of reason. She grabbed the back of Minako's thighs, lifting her up and carrying her until she was placed on the edge of her desk. 'This is where it all began . . .' Rei and Minako simultaneously thought to themselves as their lips moved of their own accord.

Rei pulled away, her heart pounding in her chest as she looked at the beautiful goddess before her; her hair was disheveled and her lips were more plump than usual due to their bruising kisses. "Lucy and I are over." Rei moved a stray strand of golden hair from Minako's face, tucking it behind her ear, causing the blonde to blush for once. "No one could possibly measure up to you."

Minako had no response to Rei's statement, her heart fluttering as the miko grabbed her by the hips, pulling her to the edge, getting her as close as possible to her lover. "And I still do you know . . . " Rei said softly, her lips hovering over Minako's full pink ones, as she leaned her upper body forward, leaving virtually no room between them. "I never stopped for a single second . . ." Rei licked her lips, looking from the blonde's piercing blue eyes to her lips she was so desperately trying not to devour.

"You never stopped what . . .?" Minako felt even more heat rise to her cheeks.

Rei looked up from Minako's lips, locking eyes with the blonde. "Loving you."

There was a moment of pause as Minako took in Rei's words and then as if they were magnets they both closed the distance between them, crashing their lips together in a deep kiss. Minako bit down on Rei's lower lip, tugging it hard enough to almost break skin as Rei gripped her skirt, slowly pulling it down the blonde's legs and dropping to her knees, breaking their kiss and leaving the Venusian in nothing but her heals and lingerie.

Rei looked up at the blonde with clouded over eyes while Minako bit her lower lip, gripping the edge of the desk tightly in anticipation. Minako watched as Rei softly kissed the inside of her left ankle, then her calve, and worked her way up to her thigh, kissing the skin slowly, but before she could get to her destination she was stopped by the heal of Minako's stiletto pressing into her shoulder.

"Minako." Rei let out an irritated growl as she looked up at the smirking blonde.

Rei tried to push up against Minako's stiletto, but the goddess of love was deceivingly strong and seemed to have no trouble keeping the hungry Martian at bay. With one push of her foot Minako had Rei flat on her back on the ground and before the miko could get up the blonde had already pounced on her prey, pinning Rei's hands about her head.

"You'll get your turn . . . eventually." Minako grinned mischievously down at the very aroused girl beneath her. "I have to say though Rei . . ." Minako loosened her hold on Rei's wrists, slowly sliding her hands down the miko's arms until she reached the offending material blocking her from seeing all of Rei. "You are severely overdressed for the occasion." Before Rei could respond Minako gripped her shirt tightly with both hands and tore it in two. "That's better." Minako licked her lips, admiring the Martian's red lacy bra and tan skin exposed for her to see.

Minako slowly ran her hands up Rei's stomach, biting her lower lip at the feeling of Rei's hot skin beneath her fingertips while Rei looked up at her goddess, a fire blazing in the pit of her stomach. Minako kept running her hands up Rei's torso, over her breasts, and then once she got to her shoulders she grabbed the Martian's bra straps and yanked her up into a sitting position, smashing her lips against Rei's.

Minako ran her tongue over Rei's lower lip, asking for entrance to the Martian's mouth which Rei was all too happy to grant. While their tongues battled for dominance Rei slowly snaked her hands up Minako's back, unclipping the senshi of love's bra. Rei kissed down to Minako's jaw as she tossed the blonde's bra of to the side, then kissed her way down to her shoulder before she dipped lower and took one of Minako's nipples into her mouth.

"Reiko . . ." Minako moaned out softly as she started grinding her hips into the girl beneath her, her breathing becoming heavier as Rei massaged her other breast with her free hand while she grazed her teeth across Minako's nipple.

Before Rei released Minako's nipple from her mouth she gave it one last flick with her tongue so she could lean up and capture the blonde's lips in another kiss while her hand trailed from her breast down her stomach to the top of her lace panties. Her heart pounded in her ears and her blood ignited as she slowly started to dip her fingertips into Minako's white underwear only to be shoved back down by the fiery Venusian and have her hands pinned above her head again.

"Minako!" Rei protested, beyond frustrated with her lover.

"Temper, temper." Minako chided the raven haired girl pinned to the ground with a smirk. "You have to wait your turn Reiko." Minako purred into Rei's ear, biting the Martian's earlobe and tugging on it.

"You're such a tease." Rei growled, trying to free her wrists from Minako's hold to no avail.

"The more you struggle, the longer you'll have to wait Reiko and I don't know about you, but . . ." Minako kissed down to Rei's neck and let go of the miko's wrist when she stopped trying to free them, running her hand down Rei's stomach until she reached her shorts. Rei started breathing hard, her body heating up, and her chest heaving as Minako bit down on her shoulder and unbuttoned her shorts with her thumb and index finger. "I'm pretty tired of waiting." Minako mumbled against Rei's skin as she unzipped Rei's shorts and dipped her hand into Rei's panties.

Rei was on the verge of frenzy as Minako pushed her hand further into her red underwear, her fingertips grazing past her clit to go straight to her waiting entrance and just as her lover was about to push her fingers into her a loud ringing filled the room.

"Maybe you should get that?" Minako smirked down at the very frustrated Martian.

"No fucking way. Ignore it." Rei moved her hips when the phone stopped ringing to try to get more contact from the blonde.

Minako leaned down to kiss the raven haired girl, her fingertips right at her entrance when Rei's phone started ringing once again, causing her to pull away with a sigh.

"Just get it." Minako huffed.

"I swear to kami if it's that stupid dumpling head I'm going to kill her." Rei growled, pulling her phone from her pocket while a very impatient goddess of love straddled her waist with crossed arms.

"Who is it?" Minako raised an eyebrow when Rei glared at her screen. When the miko didn't answer Minako leaned forward to see the name Lucy flashing across Rei's screen and she felt a flare of jealousy rise in her chest.

"No one important." Rei rejected the call and threw the phone at the wall, smashing it to ensure there would be no more interruptions. "They won't be bothering us anymore."

"Good answer." Minako growled as she leaned in, capturing Rei's lips in another deep kiss, her hand snaking back into her lover's panties. "You're fucking mine Reiko." The blonde mumbled against Rei's lips before she used her free hand to grab a fistful of the Martian's dark locks and yanked Rei's head back so she could look into her dark eyes. "Don't ever fucking forget." Before Rei could say anything Minako kissed Rei hard, pushing her fingers into her as deep as they could go.

Rei moaned into Minako's mouth as Minako rocked her hips into her own, pulling her fingers out and then pushing them back into the raven haired girl roughly to emphasize her point while Rei ran her hands up the blondes back. Minako arched her back, letting out a moan when her lovers nails dug deep into her shoulders, almost challenging her to go rougher.

Minako was never one to back down from a challenge, especially one issued by the fire senshi, and was quick to yank Rei's head back again by her hair, breaking their kiss as she rocked her hips into the raven haired girl harder, pressing her thumb against Rei's clit while her fingers continued their rough assault. A fire blazed in Rei's eyes and that fire reflected in Minako's own gaze as Rei scratched her nails down Minako's back, leaving red angry trails in her fingers wake.

Minako's eyes practically rolled into the back of her head at the feeling of Rei digging into her, her grip on Rei's dark locks tightening as Rei's touch became soft and her hands made their way to Minako's front, slowly running down the blonde's tight stomach, and dipping her hand back into her white lingerie. Rei leaned up more, capturing the blonde's lips in another kiss as she pushed two fingers into her lover grinding her hips into her.

Minako moaned against Rei's lips, heat starting to fill her entire body as Rei pushed her fingers all the way into her. She wanted so badly to cave into the Martian's desires, because she knew first hand how good it felt to do so, but somehow she found the willpower to stop herself, grabbing Rei's wrist and pinning her hand to the ground as she pulled away from the kiss.

"I told you you have to wait your turn." Minako smirked down at the squirming miko.

"You know I can't." Rei replied as Minako slowed down her pace, grinding her hips into her lover deliberately, earning her another moan from her fiery Martian.

"Do it for me Reiko." Minako pushed her fingers into Rei, hitting a particularly sensitive spot inside of the Martian she knew to be her g-spot as she pulled Rei's restrained hand up to her mouth, wrapping her lips around one of Rei's digits.

Rei's mouth ran dry as she watched the blonde suck whatever remnants of herself was on Rei's finger clean off. The feel of Minako's lips and tongue wrapped around her finger alone sent shivers down her spine and if she had trouble restraining herself before, it was nothing compared to now.

"If you're having trouble Rei . . . " Minako leaned forward, kissing Rei's lips once slowly so she could get a taste of her lover before pulling away a little. "I can always tie you down."

"Minako." Rei moaned softly as the blonde kissed over to her neck, biting on the sensitive skin while Rei slid her now free hands up Minako's thighs. "You're trying to kill me aren't you."

"What ever do you mean?" Minako smiled innocently against Rei's skin.

"You know damn well what I mean." Rei replied breathlessly.

"Oh . . . you mean this?" Minako sat up, biting her lower lip as she slowed down even more, grinding her hips and pushing her fingers all the way into Rei, pausing for good measure before she pulled them back out to push them back in even slower.

"Yes." Rei's hands made their way to Minako's perfect ass, pulling the blonde impossibly closer.

"You want me to go faster?" Minako leaned forward and whispered into Rei's ear, causing chills to instantly go up and down the raven haired girl's spine.

"You know I do." Rei moaned out as Minako put more pressure on her clit with her thumb.

"Say please." Minako smiled wickedly as she ground her hips into the squirming miko, curling her fingers deep inside of her lover.

"Mina-" Rei tried to protest, but Minako was quick to wrap her free hand around her throat.

"Say please Reiko." Minako took on a more stern sexy tone. "You know how much I love to hear you beg." She bit down on Rei's shoulder as she pushed into Rei harder to emphasize her point, effectively turning the Martian into putty.

"Please Minako." Rei got out with the blonde's hand still firmly at her throat, caving in faster than she thought she would.

That was the only thing Minako needed to hear to stop her teasing as she crashed her lips onto Rei's, releasing her lover from her chokehold as she picked up her pace. Rei dug her nails into Minako's ass as Minako tangled her free hand in Rei's dark locks, breathing heavy as she pushed her fingers in and out of her lover hard and fast, rubbing Rei's clit even faster with her thumb. Minako held nothing back as she roughly pushed her fingers as far as they would go into Rei, letting out all of her pent up frustration on the fire senshi who was her more than willing victim.

"M-Minako . . . I'm getting close . . ." Rei moaned out, arching her back when Minako kept hit her g-spot again while she sucked on the raven haired girls neck.

"Not yet." Minako's lips dragged across Rei's skin as she spoke, desperate to keep this moment going forever. "Don't come yet." Despite Minako's order the blonde picked up the pace even more, hitting Rei's g-spot over and over again, challenging the fire senshi to not get off.

"I don't think I can s-stop myself." Rei gripped Minako's ass harder, closing her eyes tightly and biting her lower lip, trying anything she could to prolong the moment.

Sweat beaded down Minako's forehead as rubbed Rei's clit faster, gripping Rei's hair tighter in her hand and before the blonde knew it Rei unraveled in her hands, moaning out Minako's name one last time, her legs shaking, and her body exploding as she came hard.

Minako kissed Rei's shoulder softly as she slowed down her pace while her lover rode out her orgasm and came down from her high, pulling her fingers out of Rei's panties once the Martian was just laying there in a heap, chest heaving. Minako felt a sense of pride, knowing she alone could leave the Martian in such a state panting on the floor.

"Get on the bed." Rei was finally able to get out after a minute, her breathing still heavy.

"What?" Minako raised an eyebrow. 'There's no way she's already ready to go again.'

"I said get on the bed." Rei growled, sitting up. "I waited my turn." The Martian smirked and a new wave of excitement filled Minako's gut at the look in her lovers eyes.

"Of course." Minako leaned in, kissing Rei before she stood up and started slowly crawling onto the bed, putting on a show for the miko when she stood up behind her, kicking off her shorts. "How do you want me Reiko?" Minako practically purred, looking over her shoulder at the hungry martian.

"Don't care. I just want you now." Rei grabbed Minako's hips, dragging her back on all fours as close to the edge of the bed as possible, causing a giggle to escape Minako's mouth.

The giggle died on Minako's lips though when Rei hastily pushed her white panties to the side and pushed two fingers all the way into the blonde, causing a moan to erupt from her pink lips. Rei practically moaned at the feeling of being inside of her lover again, gripping the blonde's hip tightly with one hand to keep Minako in place as she pulled her fingers out only to push them back in harder, curling them when they went as deep as they could go.

"Fuck Rei . . . whatever you're doing . . . don't stop." Minako moaned out, gripping the sheets tightly in her hands.

"Is that an order?" Rei smirked, continuing her slow and rough ministrations.

"Ye-"

Rei interrupted Minako with a loud smack, slapping her ass hard with her free hand, leaving a pink outline of her hand on her lovers perfect ass, causing a louder moan to erupt from the love senshi's mouth. Rei ran her hand slowly up Minako's back until she reached her blonde locks, gripping her hair tightly in her hand, and pulling back, forcing Minako to arch her back with her head bent slightly back.

"You're not in any position to be giving orders." Rei leaned forward, whispering in the blondes ear, emphasizing her point by pushing her fingers into her lover harder while Minako bit down on her lower lip, her eyes closed tight, trying to suppress her loud moans.

Rei kissed the back of Minako's shoulder as she continued pushing into the blonde, letting go of her hair and lightly running her nails back down the love senshi's back, leaving her mark before she gripped Minako's hip once more. She squeezed it as she picked up the pace, pushing into the blonde faster, causing Minako's resolve to break as she dropped her head onto the bed, moaning loudly into the sheets while the bed creaked in protest.

"R-Rei . . . I'm getting close . . ." Minako moaned out, her grip on the sheets tightening. Having sex with Rei before had turned her on so much she was already ready to burst like a shaken can of soda the second Rei had touched her and the raven haired girl's lips and hot breath on her shoulder weren't helping her from holding back.

"Then come for me angel." Rei bit down on the blonde's soft skin, pushing a third finger into Minako and hitting her g-spot, sending her over the edge.

Minako hit the bed with her fist once as her orgasm hit her hard, practically screaming Rei's name as her body shook and she hit a high she never knew she could. Once the intense pleasure subsided the blonde let out the breath she didn't know she had been holding in as Rei slid her fingers out of her.

"Wow Rei." Minako breathed heavily. "That was-"

"I'm not done yet." Rei growled, gripping Minakos hips and flipping her around so she laid on her back at the edge of the bed with her legs hanging off the side, ripping her white lingerie off.

"R-Rei . . ." Minako blushed, propping herself up on her elbows. "I don't think I-"

Before Minako could finish voicing her protest Rei dropped to her knees, and dove in, massaging her lover's clit with her tongue.

"Fucking shit . . ." Minako moaned, throwing her head back as Rei worked her magic, putting Minako's legs on her shoulders as she gripped the blonde's ass, pulling her as close to her as possible.

"Kami you taste like heaven." Rei mumbled against Minako, practically moaning at the taste.

Rei had had a taste of Minako before and now she couldn't bring herself to stop as she ravaged the blonde. She wanted to take her time this round, but couldn't bring herself to as she pushed two fingers into her lover once again, pushing her tongue harder against the squirming blonde's clit whose hand had traveled down to tangle her fingers in Rei's dark locks once again.

"Rei . . ." Minako moaned, gripping her hair tighter in her hands. "I-I'm not going to last long if you keep this up." Minako flopped down flat on her back,unable to keep herself propped up on her elbow to watch her lover devour her any longer as Rei twirled her tongue just right. Minako bit her lower lip, almost drawing blood as Rei hit her g-spot once again, pushing her fingers in and out of the blonde hard and fast, desperate to hear the love senshi's cries fill the room once more.

Minako felt her orgasm coming at an alarmingly fast rate and before she could even try to stop herself she came much harder then she did the first time, arching her back and screaming Rei's name as she desperately clung to her hair. Rei continued her fast ministrations, only slowing down once she felt the blonde had had enough. She gave her lovers clit one last flick of her tongue before she slowly pulled her fingers out of her and crawled onto the bed, laying next to the heaving blonde.

"Kami I fucking love you." Minako smiled with her eyes closed, her chest still heaving from her orgasm.

"I love hearing you say that." Rei smiled over at the blonde. "Say it again." Minako opened her eyes, looking over at the grinning martian.

"I love you Reiko." Minako's smile brightened even more.

"I love you too Minako." Rei leaned forward, brushing her lips across the blondes. "I'm yours. Always have been. Always will be."

"And don't you ever fucking forget." Minako smirked.

"I couldn't if I tried." Rei pressed her lips against Minako's in a soft kiss.
