6 The club was as packed as it possibly could be on a Saturday night. A
|
rlm@2
|
7 young woman, short black hair shining even in the dim light, slid up to the
|
rlm@2
|
8 bar, her long skirts flowing as she sat on a stool. She was an eye-catcher
|
rlm@2
|
9 in that beautiful black dress, the short sleeves revealing delicate white
|
rlm@2
|
10 flesh on her arms, the wrinkled skirts flowing up every so often and would
|
rlm@2
|
11 reveal glimpses of little white ankles. Her small feet were covered by
|
rlm@2
|
12 little black shoes, matching the dress with perfection. Her gloves where
|
rlm@2
|
13 white with a black rim around the wrist, completing the delicate ensemble.
|
rlm@2
|
14 She was gorgeous.
|
rlm@2
|
15 But, somehow, she managed to fade into the background of the dancers,
|
rlm@2
|
16 her small frame blending in with some strange force into the area of the bar.
|
rlm@2
|
17 She would glance around, noticing people who stood out more than others, but
|
rlm@2
|
18 they did not notice her. No matter how gorgeous she was.
|
rlm@2
|
19 The swing music emerged from the large band, beckoning her onto the
|
rlm@2
|
20 wooden dance floor. She did not comply. She would tap her feet and shake
|
rlm@2
|
21 her small hips on her stool, but she did not dance. The bartender noticed
|
rlm@2
|
22 her by accident, staring off into space and catching a glimpse of shining
|
rlm@2
|
23 black hair. He focused fully on her, in all her glory, as she threw her head
|
rlm@2
|
24 back, her entire body shaking to the intoxicating music. His young body
|
rlm@2
|
25 could not deal with this beauty, and his knees shook in his new pinstriped
|
rlm@2
|
26 suit.
|
rlm@2
|
27 She was gorgeous.
|
rlm@2
|
28 But, she would not dance.
|
rlm@2
|
29 Something caught this black beauty's eye, and she glanced in the
|
rlm@2
|
30 direction of it. A whir of pink, followed by the swishing of white skirts,
|
rlm@2
|
31 and the bubbling sound of beautiful laughter. She was transfixed at the
|
rlm@2
|
32 sight before her. Long pink hair flowing as beautifully as the white skirts
|
rlm@2
|
33 that whirled around her ankles. Small white-clad feet tapped expertly on the
|
rlm@2
|
34 dance-floor, and were swept upward as this flower's partner lifted her up and
|
rlm@2
|
35 swung her around. Flips, dips, whirls, and turns...this beauty was not to go
|
rlm@2
|
36 unnoticed. To our little black darling, though, she was something much more.
|
rlm@2
|
37 She was gorgeous.
|
rlm@2
|
38 "Bartender!" The small voice dripped with urgency and need. The young
|
rlm@2
|
39 man, intoxicated by her and his self-esteem rising, hurried over to her, his
|
rlm@2
|
40 eyes not leaving the front of her dress.
|
rlm@2
|
41 "Yes?" He replied, in a slightly seductive tone.
|
rlm@2
|
42 She either ignored it or didn't notice. "Who is that woman, over
|
rlm@2
|
43 there?" A long, white-gloved hand motioned to the pink-haired seductress.
|
rlm@2
|
44 "Oh, you mean Bunny?" He smiled, memories flooding his mind.
|
rlm@2
|
45 "Bunny..." The black-haired woman rolled it around on her tongue. "Is
|
rlm@2
|
46 that her real name?"
|
rlm@2
|
47 "Yes," he smiled again. "Well, her real name is Little Rabbit, but
|
rlm@2
|
48 everyone calls her Bunny."
|
rlm@2
|
49 "Oh," came the reply. "I see." She hadn't looked at the young man the
|
rlm@2
|
50 entire time, her eyes transfixed on Bunny. Something about her enchanted our
|
rlm@2
|
51 black beauty, and made her want to walk up to her and kiss that pink haired
|
rlm@2
|
52 rabbit right in the middle of the dance floor, filled with people. Something
|
rlm@2
|
53 about this little rabbit made her want to get off of her stool of safety and
|
rlm@2
|
54 enter her world.
|
rlm@2
|
55 The bartender leaned over the counter, trying to catch her attention.
|
rlm@2
|
56 "And what," he began, "is your name?"
|
rlm@2
|
57 She turned back to him slowly, wondering what to say. "My name?" She
|
rlm@2
|
58 said again, and her mind cleared for a second. "Oh. I'm Firefly."
|
rlm@2
|
59 He smiled. "Glad to meet you, Firefly."
|
rlm@2
|
60 Engrained politeness forced her to smile back at him and clear her
|
rlm@2
|
61 throat. "And what, may I ask, is your name?"
|
rlm@2
|
62 He smiled wider, glad she was showing interest in him. "I'm Seiya."
|
rlm@2
|
63 The strangeness of his name made her take a closer look at him. He was
|
rlm@2
|
64 really quite handsome, large navy blue eyes whose depths could sink a woman
|
rlm@2
|
65 daring enough to wade into their waters. She took in the sharp angles of his
|
rlm@2
|
66 face, the short and stylish hair cut, and the well-tailored suit that he
|
rlm@2
|
67 wore. Over the high counter on the bar she couldn't see much else, even if
|
rlm@2
|
68 she had been standing. She blushed a little in spite of herself, noticing
|
rlm@2
|
69 finally that he was VERY interested in her. "That's an interesting name..."
|
rlm@2
|
70 She commented, trying to break the still air between the two.
|
rlm@2
|
71 "I know. I don't know what my parents were thinking!" He chuckled,
|
rlm@2
|
72 and she joined in, relieved. "What brings you here tonight, Firefly? Here
|
rlm@2
|
73 for the dancing, the music," he paused, weighing his words carefully. "Or
|
rlm@2
|
74 are you meeting someone?"
|
rlm@2
|
75 She blushed again. This wasn't working out well. "No, I'm not meeting
|
rlm@2
|
76 anyone at all." She turned away from his now eager eyes, just in time to
|
rlm@2
|
77 catch a glimpse of that whirl of pink before it slammed into her.
|
rlm@2
|
78 The entire ordeal was utterly embarrassing. Bunny had been dancing,
|
rlm@2
|
79 just having a good time, when suddenly her partner decided to try out a new
|
rlm@2
|
80 move. He had wanted to throw her up in the air and catch her as she spun
|
rlm@2
|
81 down into his arms, but it hadn't quite worked out the way he had wanted it
|
rlm@2
|
82 to. He had thrown her, all right, but she was so surprised she had pulled
|
rlm@2
|
83 away in mid-air, and ended up going backwards and slamming, quite painfully,
|
rlm@2
|
84 into the bar. Now she lay sprawled on top of someone she didn't recognize, a
|
rlm@2
|
85 stool going painfully into her hip, and her hair caught underneath someone
|
rlm@2
|
86 else's foot. Or maybe it was her foot. She couldn't tell. She knew it was
|
rlm@2
|
87 caught somewhere, though.
|
rlm@2
|
88 Firefly groaned at the weight that pressed down on her. She rubbed her
|
rlm@2
|
89 head with her left hand and sat up on her right elbow before opening her
|
rlm@2
|
90 eyes. The mysterious girl, Bunny, was inches from her face, red eyes staring
|
rlm@2
|
91 into dark purple ones.
|
rlm@2
|
92 She screamed.
|
rlm@2
|
93 Bunny, more than just a little perplexed, covered her ears and squeezed
|
rlm@2
|
94 both eyes shut. When the loud noise finally stopped, she opened one eye,
|
rlm@2
|
95 making for a very cute little figure. When she saw the somewhat startled and
|
rlm@2
|
96 very beautiful Firefly before her, however, she opened both eyes again, and
|
rlm@2
|
97 stared.
|
rlm@2
|
98 The moment was awkward. Dark purple staring into dark red, both women
|
rlm@2
|
99 sprawled out on the floor with a couple stools between them. It seemed like
|
rlm@2
|
100 an eternity before Seiya ran to help both of them up...yes, an eternity, a
|
rlm@2
|
101 wonderful and blissful eternity that sparked something between two very
|
rlm@2
|
102 beautiful young women. Seiya brought them both into a back room to tend to
|
rlm@2
|
103 their wounds, but they had just barely noticed them. All they saw was dark
|
rlm@2
|
104 purple and dark red. That's all.
|
rlm@2
|
105 Oh! She was so beautiful! Bunny had never seen such beauty wrapped up
|
rlm@2
|
106 in one gloriously petite package. She had never seen such a deep shade of
|
rlm@2
|
107 purple, let alone in eyes as glorious as this. How could she have not
|
rlm@2
|
108 noticed this woman before? This dark, mysterious, beautiful woman?
|
rlm@2
|
109 Firefly was enchanted. Perhaps it was that hair, such a cute little
|
rlm@2
|
110 shade of pink. Perhaps it was those eyes, red and perfect and wonderful.
|
rlm@2
|
111 Perhaps it was the cute figure of this petite woman, shown off perfectly in
|
rlm@2
|
112 that beautiful white dress. Whatever it was, her senses lived in it, reveled
|
rlm@2
|
113 in it, and wouldn't let her forget that wonderful look in those red eyes.
|
rlm@2
|
114 Seiya sat them down on two crates in the storage room. He watched
|
rlm@2
|
115 them, an eyebrow raised in a silent question. Why were they staring at each
|
rlm@2
|
116 other like that? He'd never seen that kind of look before. He turned their
|
rlm@2
|
117 faces toward him, and cleared his throat. "Hey ladies, that was a pretty
|
rlm@2
|
118 hard fall. Are you cats alright?"
|
rlm@2
|
119 Bunny's head cleared, and she spoke up. "Oh, I'm alright...just a little
|
rlm@2
|
120 banged up." She breathed out slowly, her face turning the same shade as her
|
rlm@2
|
121 eyes. "And embarrassed."
|
rlm@2
|
122 Seiya laughed. "I would be too. But hey, that's what you get if
|
rlm@2
|
123 you're swinging with Helios!"
|
rlm@2
|
124 Bunny sulked. "Yeah, thanks. I feel SO much better now."
|
rlm@2
|
125 "Don't worry about it." The soft voice emerged from the woman beside
|
rlm@2
|
126 her, and she turned to look at her, red eyes wide. "Anyone with half a brain
|
rlm@2
|
127 could see it wasn't your fault." Firefly smiled.
|
rlm@2
|
128 Bunny swallowed hard. She was trying to fight this overwhelming heat
|
rlm@2
|
129 that emerged from her belly when she looked at this enchantress. "Th...Thank
|
rlm@2
|
130 you." She swallowed hard again. "But, I apologize anyway, because I can
|
rlm@2
|
131 tell it probably hurt!" She tried to break the mood with a small chuckle,
|
rlm@2
|
132 and succeeded in getting a wider smile and giggle out of the other woman.
|
rlm@2
|
133 "Hey you two lovely cats, I'm going to get some Band-Aids and wash-
|
rlm@2
|
134 cloths. I'll be back in a second." Seiya opened the door and closed it
|
rlm@2
|
135 softly, leaving the two women in the small storage room all by themselves.
|
rlm@2
|
136 Bunny was the first to break the silence. "Since I crashed into you
|
rlm@2
|
137 and all...I thought it'd be nice if...if we could call each other by our first
|
rlm@2
|
138 names."
|
rlm@2
|
139 "Alright." Firefly nodded.
|
rlm@2
|
140 "So what's yours?"
|
rlm@2
|
141 "Firefly."
|
rlm@2
|
142 "I'm..."
|
rlm@2
|
143 "Bunny. I know."
|
rlm@2
|
144 "How do you know?"
|
rlm@2
|
145 Firefly smiled. "Seiya told me."
|
rlm@2
|
146 "Oh. You know Seiya?"
|
rlm@2
|
147 "Not really. I just met him tonight. I asked him what your name was."
|
rlm@2
|
148 "Really? Why?"
|
rlm@2
|
149 "Because..." She swallowed the lump in her throat. "I noticed you
|
rlm@2
|
150 dancing, and thought you were the most beautiful thing I'd ever seen."
|
rlm@2
|
151 Bunny could have fainted. She had never heard anything like that ever
|
rlm@2
|
152 said to her before. Where did this come from? This overwhelming feeling
|
rlm@2
|
153 that something was RIGHT about this? This feeling that they had met before,
|
rlm@2
|
154 in another time, another place? That she had kissed this woman, held this
|
rlm@2
|
155 woman, comforted this woman, and made love to this woman? "I...thank you."
|
rlm@2
|
156 "You're welcome." Firefly turned away from those red eyes.
|
rlm@2
|
157 "You...you're very beautiful yourself, you know. I've never seen anyone
|
rlm@2
|
158 like you before." Bunny smiled. "You have very lovely eyes, Firefly."
|
rlm@2
|
159 Firefly smiled at the complement. "Thank you, Bunny." Doing something
|
rlm@2
|
160 that was mainly from her instincts alone, she placed a white-gloved hand over
|
rlm@2
|
161 Bunny's bare one, not thinking at all. She didn't know Bunny would suck in
|
rlm@2
|
162 her breath at the sudden contact, her chest heaving with the sweet ache of it
|
rlm@2
|
163 all. She didn't know the smaller, pink haired girl would lean in and kiss
|
rlm@2
|
164 her sweetly on the lips.
|
rlm@2
|
165 But if she had known this, she would have done it anyway.
|
rlm@2
|
166 Bunny's lips brushed her own lightly, and she could have melted right
|
rlm@2
|
167 onto that crate. When they pulled away from each other, they realized what
|
rlm@2
|
168 they had done, what they had given into, and blushed. Firefly tried to make
|
rlm@2
|
169 her hand pull away from Bunny's, but her body wouldn't respond. Instead,
|
rlm@2
|
170 taking on a mind of it's own, her hand slid around Bunny's waist and pulled
|
rlm@2
|
171 her half on top of her. The only slightly smaller girl had her hands in
|
rlm@2
|
172 between them, resting just above Firefly's breasts. Her left leg was trapped
|
rlm@2
|
173 between Firefly's other two, pulsing with some uncontrollable heat.
|
rlm@2
|
174 Firefly's body still in charge, she dipped her head low and kissed Bunny
|
rlm@2
|
175 fiercely, deepening the kiss more than they both thought possible.
|
rlm@2
|
176 Her perfume was like a drug, Bunny thought. It got her higher than
|
rlm@2
|
177 anything had ever before. She couldn't imagine something that made her feel
|
rlm@2
|
178 half this good. What reminded her of these kisses? She didn't know. No one
|
rlm@2
|
179 had ever kissed her like this, not this passionately, not this wonderfully,
|
rlm@2
|
180 not this meaningfully. No one had ever held her like this, so warm and
|
rlm@2
|
181 inviting and comfortable and RIGHT. No one had ever reminded her of home,
|
rlm@2
|
182 not like this woman before her in the long black dress who's eyes were a deep
|
rlm@2
|
183 purple like the endless night sky.
|
rlm@2
|
184 When the kiss did end, they pulled away slowly, swollen lips still
|
rlm@2
|
185 puckered. Bunny licked her lips, tasting the sweet honey of the Firefly
|
rlm@2
|
186 before her. She tried, in vain, to move from her slightly uncomfortable
|
rlm@2
|
187 condition, but her body stopped her. She couldn't control her next move, a
|
rlm@2
|
188 thought that would normally be scary but didn't frighten her in the least.
|
rlm@2
|
189 "Firefly, you're a wonderful kisser..." Bunny's lips were mere inches
|
rlm@2
|
190 from Firefly's. A small hand traveled up Firefly's thigh, tickling and
|
rlm@2
|
191 exciting at the same time. She didn't know where her skirt began or ended,
|
rlm@2
|
192 but realized that the way they were sitting must have folded her skirt way up
|
rlm@2
|
193 beneath her. That wasn't a problem, concerning the circumstances.
|
rlm@2
|
194 The hand came to rest underneath her skirts at her hip, feeling along
|
rlm@2
|
195 her hipbone and just below her belly button. She kissed her Bunny once
|
rlm@2
|
196 again, tongue diving in her mouth in a quest to quench this fire she was
|
rlm@2
|
197 starting inside of her.
|
rlm@2
|
198 Bunny had to retaliate. Nothing she did seemed to affect this Firefly.
|
rlm@2
|
199 Nothing.
|
rlm@2
|
200 Except this.
|
rlm@2
|
201 Her small hand slipped past her Firefly's underwear, coming in contact
|
rlm@2
|
202 with soft and curly hair. She ran her hand down this, feeling the two tensed
|
rlm@2
|
203 legs spread around her in an instinctive movement. A small finger traced its
|
rlm@2
|
204 way down the entrance to this Firefly's cave, feeling along her most
|
rlm@2
|
205 sensitive place. Lying back on the crates, Firefly pulled this Bunny above
|
rlm@2
|
206 her and kissed her again. Fierce. Hard. Scared.
|
rlm@2
|
207 Legs spread wider, giving that prying finger better access to her. Not
|
rlm@2
|
208 sure how to continue, Bunny traced the entrance again and again, feeling her
|
rlm@2
|
209 finger and hand dampen with the touches. Finally, an instinctive movement
|
rlm@2
|
210 placed in the back of her mind from long ago made her plunge her finger into
|
rlm@2
|
211 this Firefly, feeling the body beneath her stiffen and shudder with desire.
|
rlm@2
|
212 Her hand plunged in and out, feeling the inner muscles of her new lover
|
rlm@2
|
213 clench down on her finger. The kisses became even harder, desperate pleas to
|
rlm@2
|
214 continue, soundless gasps and moans, eyes and teeth clenched in pure
|
rlm@2
|
215 pleasure. The raw pleasure of it all.
|
rlm@2
|
216 Firefly threw her head back as she continued to shudder. "Oh God..." She
|
rlm@2
|
217 moaned, arms and hands locked around Bunny's shoulders. "Oooohhhh God..." She
|
rlm@2
|
218 repeated, hips rocking and bouncing on the crates below her. She realized,
|
rlm@2
|
219 through the haze that pleasure brings, that she was doing nothing for this
|
rlm@2
|
220 woman above her, nothing to please her. Arching her back, she reached the
|
rlm@2
|
221 neckline of her lover's dress and pulled it down slowly.
|
rlm@2
|
222 Unsure how to go about it, she stared at the round breast before her.
|
rlm@2
|
223 The nipple, hardened and ready for her, stuck out like a rosebud. Instincts,
|
rlm@2
|
224 buried in the back of her mind from a time long forgotten, made her bend her
|
rlm@2
|
225 head down to it and begin sucking on it.
|
rlm@2
|
226 Bunny stared down at her, feeling herself start to stiffen. Her
|
rlm@2
|
227 fingers began to slow their movements and eventually stopped, and she
|
rlm@2
|
228 realized this only after Firefly tilted her head toward her and brought her
|
rlm@2
|
229 hips to her own. Sliding her underwear down with one hand and molding her
|
rlm@2
|
230 breast with her other, she stared into the pink-haired lady's eyes with pure
|
rlm@2
|
231 desire in them. The underwear were off, and now she laid back down,
|
rlm@2
|
232 underneath her little rabbit.
|
rlm@2
|
233 Lowering her hips onto Firefly's, Bunny moaned. Their skirts were
|
rlm@2
|
234 spread out around them, still stuck around their waists. If she could break
|
rlm@2
|
235 this completely intimate contact she would, but now she was stuck in the
|
rlm@2
|
236 moment, feeling the wonderful feeling of completion as they met each other
|
rlm@2
|
237 again and again...
|
rlm@2
|
238 Bunny kissed her lover as climax overtook them both at the same
|
rlm@2
|
239 instant, shuddering over and over, hips rocking and bouncing back and forth
|
rlm@2
|
240 against the crates, creating a loud amount of noise. All Firefly could do
|
rlm@2
|
241 was wonder where Seiya was and clutch Bunny to her, teeth clenched and
|
rlm@2
|
242 muscles locked in the fabulous release. They stayed like that for a long
|
rlm@2
|
243 time, the last spasms and waves washing over them, feeling more at peace then
|
rlm@2
|
244 they had ever felt before. The shuddering eventually stopped, however, and
|
rlm@2
|
245 all they could do was lay together, still clutching at each other and legs
|
rlm@2
|
246 locked in a tight embrace. Soft swing music filtered through the door, and
|
rlm@2
|
247 they both smiled.
|
rlm@2
|
248 "In the Mood", by Glenn Miller and his Orchestra, was being played.
|
rlm@2
|
249 They both knew, by some outer force, that this was right, this was a sign,
|
rlm@2
|
250 and that they loved each other.
|
rlm@2
|
251 It was 1938, the era of swing, and the two women were locked together
|
rlm@2
|
252 in a tight embrace in a storage room of an underground swing club.
|
rlm@2
|
253
|
rlm@2

254 * * *
|
rlm@2
|
255
|
rlm@2
|
256 "Oh, Taru-chan! Come over here, quick!" Chibi-Usa called to her
|
rlm@2
|
257 lover. "Come on! It's our song!"
|
rlm@2
|
258 Hotaru walked into the room, an apron around her waist. "What? I'm
|
rlm@2
|
259 baking cookies, Odango..."
|

260 "I know, I know, but I want you to dance with me for a little while."
|
rlm@2
|
261 She grabbed the black-haired girl's hands and pulled her into an intimate
|
rlm@2
|
262 embrace. "You know, every time I hear this song, I want to hold you close."
|
rlm@2
|
263 "I know. I feel the same way." She kissed Chibi-Usa's cheek lightly.
|
rlm@2
|
264 "I'm trying to remember, what's this song called?"
|
rlm@2
|
265 "It's really old, I know that for sure."
|
rlm@2
|
266 "Yeah, the recording's kinda fuzzy." Hotaru smiled at Chibi-Usa.
|
rlm@2
|
267 Suddenly, she went weak at the knees, and sunk to the floor.
|
rlm@2
|
268 Chibi-Usa sunk with her, still holding her close. "Taru-chan? Are you
|
rlm@2
|
269 alright?" Her voiced was pressed with worry.
|
rlm@2
|
270 "Yes, Odango...I'm just...a little overwhelmed, that's all." Hotaru laid
|
rlm@2
|
271 her head on Chibi-Usa's shoulder. "I don't know. I just had the strangest
|
rlm@2
|
272 thing happen...I saw us, together, only you looked like Black Lady and I looked
|
rlm@2
|
273 kinda like Mistress 9...but we weren't EVIL...just older. And we were dancing
|
rlm@2
|
274 together, to this song."
|
rlm@2
|
275 "What do you mean?" Chibi-Usa looked thoughtful, suddenly catching a
|
rlm@2
|
276 bit of the vision herself.
|
rlm@2
|
277 "I don't know." Hotaru looked up at Chibi-Usa. "Maybe this has always
|
rlm@2
|
278 been our song, Odango."
