 Konichiwa minna...

 This story is about the cute relationship between Hotaru and Chibi Usa. 

 I know that there are a lot of people who don't believe that Hotaru and 

 Chibi Usa are together, but I think the two of them are cute so that's 

 why I wrote it. If anyone is offended by the idea of them together, by 

 lesbians, or just by sex, don't read the fic. This is my first real 

 attempt at writing a hentai fanfic, so please don't judge it too 

 harshly... The names and characters are all property of Naoko Takeuchi 

 and probably a whole bunch of other people who I don't know. Newayz... 

 I hope ya like it...

 

                             Vacation

 

         "Why do you want the keys to the beach house?" Michiru asked 

 curiously, as she lifted her cup to sip some of her coffee.

         "Chibi Usa and I are gonna go down to the shore for a little 

 vacation" Hotaru answered cheerfully.

         "Just the two of you, on a vacation together?" Haruka chimed 

 in, one eyebrow raised up, and a little smile on her face. Hotaru's 

 face suddenly turned a deep crimson red.

         "N...N...NOT LIKE THAT!" Hotaru stammered out angrily to her 

 "papa". Haruka gave a slight giggle as she sipped her own cup of 

 coffee.

         "Oh Haruka" Michiru began as she placed a hand on Haruka's, 

 "stop teasing her."

         Haruka put her cup back on the table and gave a slight apology 

 to Hotaru. She got up from her seat, and went to her jacket on the 

 living room coat rack. After digging through all the pockets, she 

 returned to the kitchen holding a shiny sliver key. She tossed it

 toward her little daughter. Hotaru caught it with ease, and smiled back 

 at her papa. "Just don't wreck the place okay? You know how mad your 

 mom and Setsuna get when they have to clean house." She looked at her 

 wife sitting at the table, and gave her a warm smile. Michiru returned 

 it with a smirk. Hotaru began giggling, and ran to her papa, giving her

 the strongest hug she could. Michiru couldn't resist laughing as she 

 saw Haruka gasping for air. After releasing her papa, Hotaru ran to her 

 mama and gave her a kiss on the cheek. She then ran off to her room to 

 get some clothes packed.

         Haruka sat back down across from Michiru. She began scratching 

 the back of her head. "Geez, that girl is getting stronger."

         Michiru gave her a loving smile. "You know, you really 

 shouldn't talk about her and Chibi Usa that way."

         "Oh come on Michi, we both know how Hotaru feels about Chibi 

 Usa." She replied in an effort to defend herself. "Setsuna has already 

 seen the two of them together in the future."

         "I know Ruka, demo, Hotaru doesn't know about her future. Plus, 

 she really isn't comfortable with the idea of her and Chibi Usa yet. 

 Right now they only think of each other as best friends. When the time 

 comes, they'll realize their true feelings for one another, but until 

 then, lets not rush them into it."

         Haruka sighed, leaned forward, and held Michiru's hand. "Okay, 

 you win... I won't mention it again."

         Michiru leaned forward so that her lips were only centimeters 

 from Haruka's. She brushed her lips against the other girl's softly, 

 and whispered "I always win" before the two began kissing passionately.

         Hotaru walked back into the kitchen to say goodbye to her 

 parents. She saw them kissing over the table, and sighed. "Gods you 

 two. Get a room."

         This brought them back to reality, and the two women looked at 

 Hotaru and smiled. Hotaru walked over to them, and gave each a kiss on 

 the cheek before saying goodbye. She ran outside, and started her black 

 convertible. Haruka and Michiru went over to the front door to watch 

 her leave. "So you think they'll realize over this 'vacation'?" Haruka 

 whispered, as she waved to Hotaru. Michiru smiled. "Maybe", she 

 replied.  Hotaru backed out of the driveway, and headed to the Silver 

 Palace.

 

         "So how long are you two gonna be on this vacation?" Queen 

 Serenity asked her 16 year-old daughter.

         "Uh" Chibi Usa began as she burrowed through her huge closet, 

 looking for her favorite pants. "Only for the weekend. I can't really 

 afford to stay any more than that considering all the work I have." She 

 jumped out the closet with the pants, and ran to her bed to pack them.

         Queen Serenity looked around her daughter's enormous bedroom, 

 and a huge sweatdrop formed over her brow. The room looked like a 

 mother's worst nightmare, clothes strewn about everywhere; books and 

 dolls covering the floor. "Gods", she muttered out, "your room is more 

 of a mess than mine ever was at sixteen." Chibi Usa gave her a wide 

 smile. "Well, I was inspired by you in the past." Serenity, gave her an 

 evil glare (equal to the one she usually gave Mars Hime). The two girls 

 stayed looking at each other, and soon burst out into laughter at how 

 stupid the other looked.

         "Ahh" Chibi Usa said as she wiped her forehead. "I'm finally 

 done packing." Serenity's eyes widened as she saw her daughter line up 

 five huge suitcases. "Ano, Chibi Usa, do you really think you need that 

 much clothing for just a weekend?" Chibi Usa gave her mother a 

 surprised look. "I want to be prepared for anything." Another sweat 

 drop formed on Serenity's head. But she figured it would be best not to 

 argue the subject. Chibi Usa turned out as stubborn as she was, and she 

 realized that arguing would do nothing to change her mind.

         Just then, a servant knocked on Chibi Usa's door. "Begging your 

 pardon Serenity Sama, Usagi-Hime." He bowed to both women. "Hotaru-Hime 

 is here for you Usagi-Hime." Both women thanked him, and asked for 

 servants to take Chibi Usa's bags down to the car.

         Chibi Usa kissed both her parents and waved bye to the four 

 princesses as she jumped into Hotaru's car. Hotaru looked over at her 

 friend. "Ne, Odango-chan, was five suitcases really necessary?"

         Chibi Usa stuck her tongue out at her friend, and the two 

 laughed. Hotaru started the car, and the two went through the castle 

 gate, onto the road.

         "Those two are so kawai" Mars said as she watched them drive 

 off.

         "Yup" Venus agreed. "They make the perfect couple."

         Queen Serenity thought back on the vision that Pluto had told 

 her of, and hoped that everything went all right with the two girls.

         "Ahhhh" Chibi Usa yawned as she stretched her arms above her 

 head. "It feels so good to be away from the palace sometimes." She 

 looked over at Hotaru and frowned. Hotaru hadn't said anything since 

 they left the palace. She just looked straight ahead at the road, 

 seemingly deep in thought.

         Usa inched closer to her friend. She called her name a couple 

 of times, but with no reply. She let out a big sigh, and sat back in 

 her seat. "Whatever she's thinking about must be pretty damn important" 

 she thought to herself, as she closed her eyes to get some rest.

         In fact, it was very important, at least to Hotaru. She was 

 thinking about Chibi Usa. That morning's comment by Haruka was not 

 unusual, she had made comments like that to Hotaru plenty of other 

 times. Each time, Hotaru would deny having such feelings for her best 

 friend, but inside she had already begun to question it. It wasn't like 

 she had anything against lesbians, her own parents were lesbians, she 

 had been brought up around it... But she just hadn't ever thought of 

 herself as one. She thought she understood where her parents had gotten 

 the idea from, she had never really been interested in guys, in fact 

 the whole idea of dating a guy hadn't even crossed her mind even though 

 she was already 17. But that didn't mean she liked girls. Then she 

 thought of Chibi Usa. She never failed to notice how good Chibi Usa 

 looked, but she would always dismiss it as just a friend noticing how 

 someone else dressed. It also occurred to her that she would always 

 take an extra amount of time when getting ready whenever she was going 

 anywhere with Chibi Usa, but she just figured that there was nothing 

 wrong with wanting to look good for a friend. After everything they had 

 been through in the past, it didn't surprise her that she loved Chibi 

 Usa, but she wasn't sure just what kind of love it was. They were 

 emotionally very close. They never failed to notice if something was 

 wrong with each other, and always shared their deepest feelings with 

 one another. But Hotaru convinced herself that that was what best 

 friends always did. Then she remembered the thoughts that she had had. 

 Sometimes, when they would talk together, Hotaru would have an erg to 

 lean over and kiss Chibi Usa. Actually, it wasn't just kissing. She had 

 had thoughts of doing stuff that only Haruka and Michiru do, stuff 

 like...

         The radio suddenly went on, and broke Hotaru's train of 

 thought. She looked beside her, and saw Chibi Usa starring at her very 

 concerned. "Daijobu?" Chibi Usa asked timidly. Her eyes expressed her 

 deep worry over her friend.

         She looks so pretty, Hotaru thought. She quickly erased the 

 thought from her mind, as she assured her friend that she was fine. 

 "I'm fine, Odango-chan. You don't have to worry about me."

         Chibi Usa raised an eyebrow as she continued to stare at 

 Hotaru. She still felt that something was bothering Hotaru, but she 

 obviously didn't want to tell her about it right now. Hotaru looked 

 back at the road ahead, trying desperately to avoid Chibi Usa's 

 questioning eyes. She knew she should tell Chibi Usa about these 

 thoughts she'd been having. Inside her, she knew it was the only way 

 that she would feel better, but she was scared at how her friend would 

 take it. She resolved that sometime during this vacation, she would sit 

 down and talk to Usa about it, she had to or else she would go nuts.

         "We're almost there Odango-chan." Hotaru said cheerfully. "Uh 

 huh" Chibi Usa replied, picking up the hint that they should change the 

 subject. She turned back to face the road. The rest of the trip was 

 traveled in silence.

 

         "SUGOI!" Usa exclaimed as she looked at the fantastic sunset on 

 the water. They had arrived at the house just in time see it. Usa sat 

 down on the sand, wriggling her toes into it, and watched the fantastic 

 site.

         Hotaru came out of the house, and saw Usa sitting there in the 

 sand. A huge smile spread across her face, as she watched Usa. Hearing 

 a door shut, Chibi Usa looked behind her, and saw Hotaru leaning on the 

 car, smiling as she quietly watched her. Usa smiled back at her friend, 

 and beckoned her to sit with her in the sand. Hotaru began walking, and 

 sat down next to Usa. Usa quickly grabbed Hotaru's arm, and leaned her 

 head on the girl's shoulder. Hotaru was somewhat surprised by the 

 gesture, but decided to go one step further, and pulled her arm out of 

 Usa grasp. Usa was ready to say something, but was quieted when she 

 felt Hotaru's arm around her waist. Usa leaned closer to her friend, 

 and the two watched as the sun set behind the water.

         After the sunset, Hotaru looked down at Usa. She had known the 

 girl had fallen asleep in her arms some time ago, but thought she was 

 too peaceful looking to wake up. She sighed as she brushed a strand of 

 hair away from Usa's face. Usa really was very beautiful. Many boys in 

 Crystal Tokyo had asked the Princess for a date, but she had turned 

 them all down flat. She had told Hotaru that none of them had 

 interested her, not even the handsome ones. She said that she was still 

 waiting for her "Prince on a white horse". Thinking of it made Hotaru 

 feel somewhat sad. She didn't want to think about anyone holding Usa 

 the way she was. It felt so good to hold her, it gave her a warm 

 feeling throughout her body. It just felt right, and she didn't want 

 anyone to take that feeling away from her.

         A cold wind suddenly hit her, and she held Usa a little 

 tighter. Night was falling, and it would be getting cold very soon. 

 Hotaru began calling Usa softly to wake her up. Usa's eyes blinked open 

 sleepily, and she looked up into Hotaru's face. Suddenly, the feeling 

 was back. Hotaru looked into Usa's sleepy gorgeous face, and before she 

 could think to stop herself, placed her lips softly on Usa's. To her 

 surprise, Usa didn't pull away, in fact, she moved into the kiss. 

 Hotaru's eyes closed as she let the feeling wash over her. Hotaru 

 slowly backed away after what seemed like an eternity, and looked back 

 at Usa. Usa just closed her eyes, and snuggled back into Hotaru. 

 Hotaru, feeling the cold wind again, stood and picked Usa up from the 

 sand. Usa unconsciously wrapped her arms around Hotaru's neck, and lay 

 in her arms. Hotaru carried the sleeping princess into the house, and 

 placed her in the guest room bed. She covered her with the quilt, and 

 went into the kitchen.

 

         It had been about an hour when Usa finally awoke. She looked 

 around, and realized she was in the house. She sat up in the bed, and 

 stretched a bit. She was about to get up, when she remembered 

 something. She thought back, and remembered the sunset, and she lying 

 against Hotaru. Then she remembered a kiss. She had woken up, and was 

 kissing someone. "Hotaru", she whispered aloud as she placed her hand 

 on her mouth. She got up out of bed, and went into the living room.

         Hotaru sat on the couch, with her head in her hands thinking 

 about what had happened. During the hour, she had finally come to terms 

 with the fact that she had feelings for Chibi Usa, feelings much 

 stronger than that of just a friend, but she didn't know what she would 

 say to the girl. It felt as if the world had changed because of a kiss. 

 Would Chibi Usa be mad, disgusted? How could she look her best friend 

 in the face again? But then, Chibi Usa had moved into the kiss, so 

 maybe she...

         "Taru-chan?"

         Hotaru turned around sharply, and starred in surprise at Chibi 

 Usa. Her heart began racing in her chest, and she swallowed hard. Chibi 

 Usa moved around the couch, and sat next to Hotaru, not looking at her 

 face. The two girls sat there in silence. Hotaru was freaking out, but 

 it seemed that Chibi Usa was totally calm. Hotaru began fidgeting with 

 her hands, praying to the Gods that Usa wasn't mad.

         "Taru-chan" Usa said again. "Did you kiss me?"

         Hotaru couldn't believe her ears. Chibi Usa sounded so calm. 

 Her heart began racing faster. Could it be that she didn't totally 

 remember what happened? Maybe she could just say that it must have been 

 dream of Usa's. She was asleep and all, it would be a great excuse. No, 

 Hotaru corrected herself. I promised myself that I was going to talk to 

 her about this. Even thought I didn't want to bring it up like this, I 

 still gotta get it off my chest. Hotaru swallowed hard, and turned to 

 Chibi Usa, mouth open and ready to talk.

         Usa didn't give her a chance, and quickly moved forward, and 

 kissed her friend full on the mouth. Hotaru was shocked, and initially 

 tried to pull away, but Usa stayed on her, and pressed her lips harder 

 onto Hotaru's... Hotaru's eyes began to close slowly, as she allowed 

 the feeling to wash over her again. Chibi Usa leaned forward against 

 Hotaru, and pushed her down onto the couch. Hotaru moved into the kiss 

 more, and her arms went around Usa's waist. Hotaru was again shocked as 

 she felt Usa's tongue slide into her open mouth. The two began probing 

 each other's mouths now. Soon a new feeling began moving through 

 Hotaru, one that was centered between her legs. Her hands began sliding 

 up and down Usa's back, and reached under to explore the naked skin. 

 Usa leaned back up over Hotaru, and pulled her shirt over her head, 

 exposing her white satin bra. Hotaru went to reach for it, but Usa 

 quickly removed it and threw it to the ground. Hotaru grabbed Usa's 

 creamy round breasts and began massaging them. Usa moaned softly and 

 arched her back, pusher her breasts into Hotaru's roaming hands.

         After a few moments Usa placed her hands on Hotaru's and 

 stopped their movement. Hotaru was about to question it when Usa leaned 

 back down, kissing her again. Usa pulled away, and whispered "Follow 

 me" lustfully. She got off the couch (and Hotaru) and walked down the 

 hall towards the master bedroom. Hotaru wasted no time jumping off the 

 couch, and running after Usa.

         When she moved into the room, she saw that Usa had gotten under 

 the covers of the bed, covering her totally except for her head. Hotaru 

 began walking closer, until Usa said stop. Usa's face wore a devilish 

 smile, and she bit her lower lip as she tossed something at Hotaru. She 

 caught it, and upon further inspection, saw that it was a pair of silk 

 underwear. The throbbing between her legs increased as she thought of 

 Usa naked under the covers.

         She attempted to step forward, but was stopped again by Usa. 

 "Odango-chan" she called out frustrated. Usa just giggled at her 

 friend, then commanded her to strip. Hotaru starred wide eyed in 

 surprise at Usa's request, but the increased throbbing between her legs 

 convinced her to follow the princesses orders. Usa watched as Hotaru 

 first pulled off her shirt, then her black pants, her socks, her bra, 

 and finally her underwear. She stood there naked in front of her 

 friend. Usa noticed something shiny on Hotaru's inner thighs, and 

 smiled wickedly. "Come here" she commanded innocently.

         Hotaru walked quickly to the bed, and pulled back the covers. 

 Usa let out a laughing scream. Hotaru starred in amazement. She had 

 seen Usa naked before on certain occasions, but never had she looked as 

 beautiful as she did now lying naked on the bed. Hotaru leaned down, 

 and kissed the princess on her lips, Usa wrapped her arms around Hotaru 

 drawing her friend closer. Their tongues played in each other's mouths 

 and they moaned softly against one another. Hotaru's hands began 

 exploring Usa's body. She began kneading her breasts, bringing a 

 delighted moan from Usa. Hotaru pulled away, breaking the kiss, and 

 went down to Usa's neck. She began sucking on the skin, and 

 occasionally grazing her teeth against it. Usa loved it, and held 

 Hotaru's head there.

         From her neck, Hotaru began a trail down to Usa's breasts. She 

 licked at the swollen, hard nipples, and suckled one in her mouth. The 

 pleasure was overwhelming for Usa, and she moaned in delight.  Never 

 had she felt anything so good. She could feel her juices running onto 

 her thighs, and began instinctively thrusting her pelvis. Hotaru loved 

 the reaction, and began to gently nip at the nipple with her teeth. 

 This brought even louder moans from the princess, and Hotaru could feel 

 herself getting more and more excited. She raised her head from the 

 first nipple, bringing a frustrated moan from Usa, but then moved onto 

 the other, and began teasing it in the same way.

         Usa couldn't take it anymore. Her eyes squeezed shut as she 

 screamed out Hotaru's name. Hotaru moved back up to Usa's face, as the 

 orgasm wracked the moon princess's body. When the pleasure had 

 subsided, she kissed her lover deeply. She moved her body, so that they 

 rolled over. Usa was now on top, and it was her turn to play with 

 Hotaru. Usa smiled wickedly, and began massaging Hotaru's smaller 

 breasts. Hotaru moaned out Usa's name and closed her eyes, giving 

 herself up to the pleasure. Usa brought the pebble like nipples to her 

 mouth and began sucking and licking them. Hotaru's moans became 

 steadily louder as Usa had her fun. Then an idea occurred in her. She 

 could keep doing this and bring Hotaru to orgasm, but that would be 

 boring. She wanted to make Hotaru totally lose herself, and she knew 

 just how to do it.

         She rose up from the bed, and moved to the foot of it. Hotaru's 

 eyes opened and she looked down at Usa in confusion. "Odango" she 

 breathed out "What are you...?"

         "Bend your legs" was Usa's reply. Hotaru starred at her, not 

 understanding what she meant. Usa repeated the command, only firmer. 

 Hotaru silently obeyed and bent her legs so the knees were off the bed. 

 Usa crawled seductively across the bed, and between Hotaru's parted 

 legs. The smell of Hotaru's juices filled the room, and Usa licked her 

 lips with apprehension. She leaned over, and began kissing Hotaru's 

 flat strong stomach. Hm... all those crunches Haruka makes Hotaru do 

 really paid off... she thought as she kissed around Hotaru's belly 

 button. One hand began slowly playing with Hotaru's black pubic hair. 

 Hotaru gasped as she felt how close Usa was to her most private part. 

 She wanted more. Usa's hand began to travel downward, and she watched 

 her lover's face, as she touched her swollen clit.

         It sent an electric shock through her body, and her pelvis 

 lifted off the bed. She gasped loudly at the sudden surge of pleasure, 

 and moaned for it to continue. Usa was shocked by the sudden reaction, 

 but it only motivated her to perform more entertaining stunts. Her 

 fingers moved down Hotaru's womanhood, to the moist opening. She began 

 playing around it, going around in circles with one hand, while 

 caressing Hotaru's inner thigh with the other. Hotaru's pleading moans 

 became louder, as her body ached more and more for Usa's touch. Usa let 

 one finger slide in, and began pumping it rhythmically into Hotaru. 

 Hotaru began to move with the pumping, driving the finger deeper into 

 her. Usa continued her assault by pushing another finger into Hotaru's 

 virgin hole. A fire had begun in Hotaru's body, and with each minute it 

 was growing more and more. She had begun calling out her lover's name, 

 as sweat formed on her body. She grabbed the bed in support as Usa 

 picked up her pace. Usa moved her head down to Hotaru's nub, and began 

 to lick her lips. Just as Hotaru thought she couldn't take anymore, Usa 

 grabbed the nub with her lips, and sucked hard on it.

         It was like electricity surging through her body. That single 

 touch was enough to bring her to the most sensational orgasm that she 

 could ever have. Her entire body lifted off the bed, and she screamed 

 out Usa's name.. Her body was immediately wracked by powerful spasms, 

 and all she could do was moan softly between them. Usa continued to 

 pleasure her lover throughout the orgasm. She continued to pump her 

 with her fingers, and began licking her swollen clit.

         When the feeling had finally ended, Hotaru looked down between 

 her legs to see Usa smiling happily at her. She began a soundless 

 laugh, and laid back into the pillows. Usa crawled up to her lover's 

 face, and the two shared a passionate kiss. Hotaru could taste her 

 juices throughout Usa's mouth, and she loved it. Just kissing her made 

 her feel all warm again throughout her body, and the aching began 

 again.

         She pulled her body up and leaned the weight against Usa, 

 causing the princess to fall down on the bed. Usa wasn't quite sure 

 what Hotaru was doing, but she didn't want to stop her. Hotaru used one 

 knee to part Usa's legs, and settled between them. She broke off the 

 kiss, and positioned herself over Usa. They both gasped as both their 

 clits met together. Hotaru began to grind on Usa, rubbing their swollen 

 nubs together. Usa pulled her lover's face down to meet hers, and the 

 two kissed as they rubbed against each other. Hotaru's nipples rubbed 

 against Usa's and the girl moaned loudly into Hotaru's mouth. She 

 quickened the pace of her grinding as she felt the orgasm building up. 

 Hotaru moved her head down to Usa's neck, and bit her softly as the 

 orgasm exploded with her. The pain and the pleasure was driving Usa 

 mad, and her whole body wrapped around Hotaru as she screamed her name 

 into the night.

         The two girls lay panting for air as the orgasms finally 

 stopped. Hotaru had collapsed on top of Usa, and she nuzzled into Usa's 

 neck. Usa's hand reached up, and she began running her fingers through 

 Hotaru's silky shoulder-length black hair. The last thing heard before 

 either girl drifted to sleep, was the other's mumbled "aishiteru".

 

         Hotaru awoke the next morning to the sweet sound of the ocean 

 waves hitting the shore. She sat up in bed, and stretched. Looking back 

 to the bed, she noticed that Chibi Usa was gone. Since when does she 

 wake up before me?, she thought to herself. She shook her head, 

 dismissing the thought, and got out of bed. She moved to the closet, 

 and opened the doors looking for her mom's aqua colored robe. She 

 frowned as she only saw her papa's navy blue one. She shrugged her 

 shoulders and put the robe on. She was about ready to leave the room, 

 when she heard a huge crash down the hall, followed by a loud scream. 

 "USA!" she yelled, as she bolted out the door, and into the kitchen

         Smoke had filled the room, and Hotaru covered her mouth as she 

 looked for her friend. Before she could get very far, she saw Usa 

 waddling out the smoke, totally covered in the black soot. Hotaru ran 

 to her, and pulled her out the kitchen into the hallway. She could see 

 that Usa was crying, and was instantly concerned about her friend. 

 "Daijobu Chibi Usa?" she asked, looking over Usa's body for bruises.

         Usa sniffled, and began to cry out. "The stove exploded." She 

 mumbled out between sobs. Hotaru suddenly went wide-eyed. "N, nani?" 

 she asked. Chibi Usa continued to cry as she answered. "I was tr, tr, 

 trying to make you some breakfast. And the stove ex, ex, exploded." A 

 huge sweat drop formed on Hotaru's brow. She looked down at her whining 

 girlfriend, and burst into uncontrollable laughter. Usa saw this, and 

 began laughing as well...

 

         "Odango-chan, breakfast is ready!" Hotaru called out. After 

 they had cleaned up the kitchen, it was decided that Hotaru would take 

 care of the cooking... so that no other explosions occurred. Chibi Usa 

 ran into the kitchen and quickly sat down at the table. Hotaru placed 

 the tall plate of pancakes, scrambled eggs, sausage and bacon in front 

 of the princess. Usa's eyes went wide as she looked at all the food, 

 and drool could be seen at the corner of her mouth. Hotaru laughed as 

 she sat down in her own chair. "How un-princess like Odango-chan." Usa 

 gave her an evil stare, and stuck out her tongue in reply. Both girls 

 laughed as they picked up their utensils. "IKODEKIMASU!" they yelled in 

 unison, as they began eating.

 

         "Ahhh" Usa sighed contently as she patted her full stomach. 

 "That was a great breakfast Taru-chan"

         Hotaru smiled as she began washing the dishes. "Arigato, Usa. 

 I'm glad all those hours spent with mama and Setsuna-mama learning to 

 cook didn't go to waste."

         Usa got up from her chair, and walked over to Hotaru. She 

 wrapped her arms around Hotaru's waist, and rested her head against her 

 back. Hotaru smiled. Having Usa so close felt so right to her. It was 

 something she'd always wanted, she realized. The two had hugged plenty 

 of times before, but it was different now. They were a couple, and 

 would be together forever, Hotaru hoped.

         "Ne, Taru-chan." Usa began. "This is our last day alone 

 together. What do you wanna do?"

         Hotaru thought for a moment before replaying back. "We don't 

 have to do anything. I just wanna relax here, with you."

         Usa smiled. "You're right. We have enough to do at home. We can 

 just relax today, and spend time together."

         Hotaru cut off the water, and wiped her wet hands on the towel 

 beside the sink. Usa released her hug, and walked over into the living 

 room and turned on the television. Hotaru soon followed, and sat down 

 on the couch beside the pink-headed girl. She put he arm around Usa's 

 shoulder and pulled her closer. Usa nestled herself into Hotaru, and 

 the two girls watched TV.

 

         "Haruka-chan, Michiru-chan, Setsuna-chan, what a pleasant 

 surprise." Queen Serenity exclaimed as she saw the three women walk to 

 the gazebo. The four other women eagerly greeted the three as well 

 before they all sat down together.

         "So" Rei began. "To what do we owe to this visit?"

         "It was too quiet around the house without Hotaru playing her 

 music upstairs. We got kinda lonely." Haruka answered.

         "And since we haven't seen you all for a while, we decided to 

 come over a pay a visit." Michiru chimed in.

         "Speaking of Hotaru" Setsuna began. "Have you heard from her or 

 small lady?"

         The queen shook her head from side to side. "Iie. Not since 

 they left together. I hope everything is all right with those two."

         Haruka covered her mouth as she snickered quietly. All the 

 women turned to face her, and Michiru sighed as she raised her hand to 

 her forehead. "You must excuse Haruka" Michiru said. "She finds 

 anything referring to Hotaru and Chibi Usa to be very funny."

         "You mean about the two of them being a couple?" Makoto asked. 

 Michiru shook her head in affirmation. The five inner senshi smiled and 

 shook their heads.

         "Well they do make a very cute couple at least" Ami stated.

         "Well you got over the shock fast" Makoto said surprised as she 

 folded her arms. Ami blushed a little. "We were all a little shocked at 

 first. I mean, who would have thought that the two of them would ever 

 get together like that?" All the girls shook their heads.

         "Yeah especially with that whole Helios thing" Minako chimed in 

 "She seemed to have a big crush on him. I thought for sure that she 

 liked guys."

         "She also always went after my Mamo-chan" Serenity inserted 

 angrily as she crossed her arms in front of her. Sweat drops appeared 

 on all the girl's heads as they thought back on those years.

         "Oh Usagi" Rei began. "She was just probably doing that to get 

 on your nerves. You two were always fighting like that." All eyes fell 

 on Rei. "Ahem" Haruka coughed "That sounds more like what you two do 

 all the time." She pointed at Serenity and Rei. The two began 

 scratching the back of their heads while they laughed loudly. The other 

 women soon joined in the laughter as well.

 

         "Odango-chan"...

         "Odango-chan"...

         Usa's crimson eyes slowly opened to see Hotaru looking down at 

 her. She blinked several times, then smiled at her lover. Hotaru smiled 

 back and bent down to kiss her beautiful girlfriend. Their lips met in 

 a soft kiss.

         "Hmm, I thought you were never going to wake up Odango-chan." 

 Hotaru said as she sat down next to her on the bed.

         Chibi Usa made a wide smile as she turned to look at the dark 

 haired girl. "You know, I can get used to waking up like this."

         Hotaru smiled at Usa. "It's already one in the afternoon Usa, 

 we should be leaving soon."

         Chibi Usa sat up in the bed letting go of her sheet so that her 

 breasts were in full view. "Do we have to leave so early Taru-chan? I 

 don't want to go back to the palace so soon. I want to stay here with 

 you." She wrapped her arms around Hotaru's waist and kissed her again. 

 Hotaru began running her hand up and down Usa's back and through her 

 soft pink hair.

         "You have to get up now, Usa. By the time your actually ready 

 to leave it'll be around four." Hotaru stood up from the bed, and moved 

 to the doorway. Usa glared evilly at Hotaru. "Mou, I don't take that 

 long to get ready." Hotaru looked back at Usa and giggled. "Yeah you 

 do, now get up and into the shower. I'll start breakfast so it'll be 

 done when you get out..."

         "I have a better idea" Usa began while getting off the bed. She 

 began walking towards Hotaru whose eyes were immediately drawn to her 

 lover's naked body. "How about we take that shower together?" She 

 stopped in front of Hotaru and wrapped her long arms around her neck, 

 drawing her into a deep kiss.

         Hotaru smiled as Usa pulled away and took the other girl's 

 hand. The two walked together into the bathroom.

 

         "So, how did you two enjoy your vacation?" Serenity asked the 

 two girls. All ten scouts sat outside in the garden talking together.

         "It was great. I really needed to get out of this palace for a 

 while, and being with Hotaru just made everything better." Usa looked 

 to the side and smiled lovingly at Hotaru. Hotaru smiled back with the 

 same love in her eyes.

         The eye contact didn't escape notice from the other scouts, and 

 all the girls smiled a little as they looked at the two. Of course it 

 was Haruka who began the giggling under her breath that woke the two 

 girls from their gaze. She tried to cover it up as a cough, but with no 

 success. Michiru just sighed as she covered her eyes with her hand and 

 shook her head.

         "It's getting late, we should be getting back home." Setsuna 

 said, addressing the other three outter senshi. They rose from their 

 seats and walked back into the palace.

         "It was good to see you four again. You really should come over 

 more often, it's rare to have us all together in one place at one 

 time." Serenity said as they walked to through the main lobby. "Arigato 

 Serenity Sama, we'll come back again soon." Michiru replied as they 

 approached the door...

         Behind everyone, Chibi Usa and Hotaru walked along the corridor 

 hand in hand. Usa turned to face Hotaru as they reached the door. "Call 

 me when you get home, ne?" she asked the taller girl. Hotaru smiled and 

 assured her that she would They stood looking at one another until 

 Haruka called for Hotaru to come on. All the women stood standing in 

 the doorway watching the two girls together. Hotaru brought her hand up 

 to lift Chibi Usa's chin and placed her lips onto Usa's. The other 

 women just starred, wide-eyed at the two kissing girls. As she felt 

 Hotaru's lips leave hers, Usa could feel her face redden at the thought 

 of her whole family seeing them kiss. Hotaru saw her girlfriend's face 

 and smiled sweetly. She bent down to Usa's ear and whispered 

 "aishiteru" before walking to the door. She walked past the others and 

 outside to her car.

         After regaining consciousness, the three outer senshi proceeded 

 outside to Haruka's red convertible, all except for Haruka who walked 

 over to Hotaru's black car. "You got some explaining to do when we get 

 home Taru-chan." She said as she bent down to Hotaru's window. The two 

 laughed, and Haruka walked to her own car. When the others had left, 

 all eyes fell on Chibi Usa. The princess stretched her arms over her 

 head and yawned. "You know, I'm feeling really tired right now. I'll 

 see you all tomorrow. Oyasumi." She called out as she quickly ran away 

 to her bedroom.
