     4 Author's Note's- This story is mine. It's a Yuri fic that means it has a 

     5 female/female couple. If you don't like that sort of thing, please leave now. I 

     6 don't own Sailor Moon; send comments to Jellicle_Vamp@hotmail.com. In this fic, 

     7 Chibi-Usa (Rini in the dub, and I'll just call her Usa in here.) is 18 and 

     8 Hotaru is 20.

     9 

    10 Usa was walking home school lost in thought.

    11 "Hey Usa!" she heard someone call behind her. She turned around to see who was 

    12 calling her name, and her heart did a double thump.

    13 It was Hotaru.

    14 Hotaru ran up to her. "I've been calling your name forever, didn't you hear me?"

    15 A blush strained Usa's cheeks as she shook her head.

    16 "Gomen ne. I was lost in thought." she said "Thinking about how much I love 

    17 you." she thought.

    18 Hotaru smiled. "That's okay. Hey, would you like to go to the park on Saturday 

    19 for a picnic?"

    20 Usa nodded yes.

    21 "Great! I'll pick you up around noon." Hotaru said at Usa's doorstep.

    22 "Alright. I'll see you then." Usa said, watching Hotaru leave.

    23 Usa walked to the house and up to her room. Sitting on her window seat, Usa 

    24 wrapped her arms around her knees and stared out the window, thinking of Hotaru. 

    25 Usa's love for her had started as that of a friend. Hotaru had been one of the 

    26 first friends Usa had made when she arrived here and Usa loved her dearly for 

    27 it. When the Senshi found out that Hotaru was Sailor Saturn, that love grew to 

    28 that of a teammate. But lately, it had grown into romantic love.

    29 Usa sighed. "I want to tell her so much, but I don't want to scare her off." She 

    30 whispered to herself.

    31 Hotaru walked into her house, setting her bag on the island in the kitchen. She 

    32 grabbed an apple and looked around for Setsuna and Michiru. She didn't find 

    33 them, but did find Haruka in the music room.

    34 "Haruka-papa?" she asked, sitting next to Haruka on the piano bench, a leg on 

    35 each side. "May I ask you a question?"

    36 Haruka stopped playing and looked at Hotaru.

    37 "Sure honey. What is it?"

    38 Hotaru's voice caught in her throat. "I...I'm..."

    39 "What is it Hotaru-hime? Guy problems? Girl problems?"

    40 Hotaru blushed and ducked her head.

    41 "Who is it?"

    42 "It's Usa." Hotaru whispered.

    43 "Have you told her?"

    44 "I'm afraid to."

    45 "Don't be. Maybe she feels the same way."

    46 "But what if she doesn't? What if she hates me for it? What if I scare her off 

    47 and she doesn't want to be my friend anymore?" Hotaru rattled off, becoming a 

    48 little panicked.

    49 "What if, what if, what if. What if you tell her and she loves you back?" Haruka 

    50 asked.

    51 "Tell her." she said, smoothing away Hotaru's hair. "Whatever happens after 

    52 that, happens."

    53 Hotaru smiled. "You're right. Arigoto Haruka-papa."

    54 That Saturday, Hotaru drove to Usa's and picked her up. Their eyes widened when 

    55 they saw what the other was wearing.

    56 Usa was wearing a white tank top, blue jean shorts and light blue, strappy 

    57 sandals. Around her throat was a thin silver chain with a small crescent moon 

    58 made of rose quartz. on the end. Her hair was up in a ponytail. Her hair and 

    59 necklace framed her throat and made Hotaru ache to kiss her.

    60 Hotaru was wearing a spaghetti strap purple shirt, white shorts, and tennis 

    61 shoes. Usa got into the car and they went to the park.

    62 Hotaru and Usa had enjoyed themselves at the park and were watching the sunset.

    63 "Usa?"

    64 "Yeah Hotaru?"

    65 "I have something I want to tell you."

    66 "Me too."

    67 Hotaru looked into Usa's blood red eyes, her hands shaking slightly.

    68 "Okay, I'm just gonna go for broke and tell you." Hotaru swallowed. "I'm in love 

    69 with you." She looked down and said, "I'll understand if you don't feel the same 

    70 way. I'll understand if you don't want to see me ever again. I'll-"

    71 Hotaru's rant was cut off as Usa tilted her chin up and kissed her.

    72 Usa's lips were warm and soft. They tasted like strawberries to Hotaru. Usa 

    73 gently parted her lips and ran the tip of her tounge against Hotaru's mouth. She 

    74 gasped and Usa slipped her tongue into Hotaru's mouth. Their tongues danced and 

    75 played in each other's mouths for dominance. They broke it off and pulled back a 

    76 little bit.

    77 "I love you too Hotaru." Usa whispered, smiling.
