rlm@0: 09p Lovely Chibiusa/Hotaru fanfic... rlm@0: I hope the author doesn't mind. I think it's a wonderful fanfic and rlm@0: well, I wanted my Audrey-chan to read it. :) Note that the author rlm@0: used Chibiusa's dubbed name (Rini), I don't know why, but I just rlm@0: wanted to clear up confusion. ^.^ rlm@0: rlm@0: rlm@0: "Alabaster Rubies" rlm@0: By Adria Lynne Tondreault rlm@0: MichiruKaiohV@aol.com rlm@0: http://www.geocities.com/yellowrosepetalsx/index.html rlm@0: Do not use without author's permission. rlm@0: rlm@0: These guys belong to Naoko Takeuchi x.o; I'm just the messenger, yo! rlm@0: This story is my first on Rini + Hotaru, although I made them a rlm@0: little older..e.e..it's not lemon..only a lime for some content..I'm rlm@0: better at writing H+M lemons..but I think H+R would be a little more rlm@0: innocent n.n; This is inspired by and mostly based off of volume 8 of rlm@0: Naoko's Sailormoon manga, and my own personal experiences. [No, not rlm@0: in that way x.o; I can relate to Hotaru with her attacks and scars.] rlm@0: Oh, and, of course our favourite couple make an appearance.. :D rlm@0: Can't have a good story wiffout my Michi + Ruka! ::snuggles them both:: rlm@0: Haruka+Michiru: o.o;;; *sweatdrop, inch away* rlm@0: Eh-heh..hope you enjoy! n.n rlm@0: ----- rlm@0: rlm@0: "Michi-Mamaaaa!" rlm@0: The green-haired woman looked up from her reading, regarding the rlm@0: dark-haired girl, no longer a little girl, yet still using petnames rlm@0: for her adoptive parents. rlm@0: "Yes, Hotaru?" rlm@0: The girl clad in black put on her most persuasive smile, puppy eyes rlm@0: and all, holding a compact cellphone between her palms. rlm@0: "May Rini sleep over tonight? Pleeeazzzzeee..?" rlm@0: Michiru smiled, tipping her head towards the tall blonde beside her. rlm@0: "Ask Daddy." rlm@0: "Eh?" rlm@0: Haruka sat up, her attention broken from the car race on television. rlm@0: Her arm around Michiru's shoulder, light blouse barely buttoned, tie rlm@0: sloppily loose as always..she was having one of her 'feminine' rlm@0: days..not looking at all like a daddy. rlm@0: "Ruka-Papaa..Usagi-sama said it's alright if Rini can sleep over rlm@0: tonight..can she?" rlm@0: Again with the cute little smile. rlm@0: "Well..I don't kno-itai!" rlm@0: Haruka rubbed her side, narrowing her eyes at the nymph beside her, rlm@0: their conversation beneath Hotaru's hearing. rlm@0: "Angelll..if Hota-chan's occupied..we can be alone..n.n.." rlm@0: Haruka coughed, a pink blush staining her cheeks. rlm@0: "Aiie..alright, alright, you don't have to pinch so hard.." rlm@0: Michiru grinned triumphantly almost, and Haruka brought her voice to rlm@0: it's normal tone again, managing to fight off the blush. rlm@0: "Anything for you, doll." rlm@0: "Yay! Arigatou!" rlm@0: Hotaru once more pressed the phone to her ear, wandering out of the rlm@0: room and chattering excitedly to who must have been Rini. rlm@0: Haruka smirked. rlm@0: "You don't think they..-itai! Quit that, I want you to touch me rlm@0: gently!" rlm@0: "Nah..don't think about our little daughter like that! She's not rlm@0: like we are..and don't worry..I will, later, when we're alone.." rlm@0: Michiru grinned as Haruka coughed again. rlm@0: "Alright, alright.." rlm@0: ----- rlm@0: The doorbell chimes sounded, making a harmonious tune thruought the rlm@0: house. rlm@0: "Just a moment!" rlm@0: Michiru looked to Haruka pleadingly. rlm@0: "Can you get that, Ruka-Sempai?" rlm@0: Haruka looked from the race, to Michiru, to the race,.. rlm@0: "..How can I resist that face?" rlm@0: As Michiru chortled, she got up, crossing to the doorway. rlm@0: "Oh, konnichiwaa meatball-head.." rlm@0: Haruka flashes her trademark knee-melting smile as she held the door rlm@0: open, a distinct cough coming from Michiru, causing the bishounen to rlm@0: sweatdrop. rlm@0: "Err..oh! And little meatball-head. Well, guess you're not so little rlm@0: anymore..you're almost as big as Bunny!" rlm@0: A chuckle. rlm@0: "Hotaru's in her room." rlm@0: Haruka pointed down the stairwell, as the pink-haired girl slipped rlm@0: in, carrying Luna P-Ball and a backpack. rlm@0: "Arigatou Haruka-sama!" rlm@0: ----- rlm@0: "Oooh..it's so romantic in here.." rlm@0: Rini peeked wide-eyed in the doorway to Hotaru's bedroom, as the rlm@0: raven-haired girl turned from a lit candle, surprised. rlm@0: "Ohh! Rini..I-I..didn't expect you so soon.." rlm@0: Hotaru giggled nervously, setting down the candle on a bedstand and rlm@0: crossing to the doorway to help the smaller girl with her bags, eyes rlm@0: downcast shyly. rlm@0: "For once Mama wasn't late." rlm@0: Rini started to walk around the room, admiring the soft glow the rlm@0: white lamps and candles cast over the darkness of the black room. She rlm@0: stopped and sat at the foot of the bed, lined with black satin sheets rlm@0: and plush blankets. rlm@0: "So, this is your room.." rlm@0: A light tapping came at the door, and Hotaru took her eyes from Rini rlm@0: a moment to answer it. rlm@0: "Daddy and I are going out now, will you two be alright?" rlm@0: "Yes, Michiru-Mama.." rlm@0: "Okay. We'll probably be back after you're asleep. Have fun!" rlm@0: "Byebye Michiru-san!" rlm@0: "Bye girls." rlm@0: Hotaru leaned on the door to shut it, bringing her eyes back to the rlm@0: pink-haired girl, swallowing, and taking a deep breath before rlm@0: crossing the room to sit beside her, hands folded between her knees rlm@0: with her hair veiled over her face, nervously murmuring only to break rlm@0: the silence. rlm@0: "Sooo.." rlm@0: Her violet eyes widened as Rini's dainty hand took her by the chin, rlm@0: tilting her to face her, nestling their noses side-by-side for a rlm@0: brief, gentle kiss. Hotaru shivered lightly, eyes automatically rlm@0: closing. rlm@0: "Are you sure we shouldn't tell your parents..? I mean, not like rlm@0: they'd mind us being together, like they are.." rlm@0: Hotaru opened her eyes again to watch Rini's ruby hues, frowning rlm@0: slightly. rlm@0: "But then they might not let us have slumber parties anymore..I rlm@0: mean, not like we've ever done anything, but, ...kissing and rlm@0: snuggling.. in secret.." rlm@0: Rini giggled softly..once they had confessed their mutual love for rlm@0: eachother a few weeks ago, Hotaru had been avoiding telling rlm@0: anyone..she had never felt feelings for anyone before, unlike Rini, rlm@0: who just happened to be a charmer..but Rini valued Hotaru more than rlm@0: anyone she had ever held feelings for before..she was her best friend. rlm@0: "I'm sure they'd understand..besides..who'd be better for you than rlm@0: me!" rlm@0: Rini grinned and puffed out her chest proudly, to which Hotaru rlm@0: loosened up a little and chuckled. rlm@0: "You're right..but, no use rushing it..ne? We're together now." rlm@0: Hotaru smiled meekly, leaning foward and softly kissing Rini. They rlm@0: closed their eyes, still going about everything slowly and coyly, rlm@0: instead of embracing, holding hands in Hotaru's lap. Rini brought her rlm@0: hand up, tracing over the black turtleneck hiding Hotaru's neck, to rlm@0: which Hotaru tensed up in an almost frightened way. rlm@0: "Taru-koi..aren't you warm? How come you always dress so rlm@0: conservatively?" rlm@0: Hotaru looked down self-consiously. rlm@0: "I was in an accident long ago..I have a lot of scars." rlm@0: Rini frowned slightly, running her thumb along Hotaru's jawline rlm@0: above the black cloth. rlm@0: "But why do you hide them?" rlm@0: Hotaru brought her hands over Rini's closing her eyes with a solemn rlm@0: frown. rlm@0: "Because they make me ugly." rlm@0: Hotaru crinkled up her nose. rlm@0: "But I think you're pretty." rlm@0: Hotaru's eyes fluttered open, blushing. rlm@0: "Aiie..arigatou Rini-koi..though I don't think so.." rlm@0: "..May I see..?" rlm@0: Hotaru gasped slightly, looking Rini in the eyes almost suspiciously. rlm@0: "Why would you want to see..? They aren't anything pretty.." rlm@0: "Let me be the judge of that?" rlm@0: Hotaru drew in a deep breath, closed her eyes, and nodded hesitantly. rlm@0: "I-..I guess so.." rlm@0: Rini tilted her head to the side, and reasurringly ran her palm over rlm@0: Hotaru's pale cheek. rlm@0: "I won't laugh at you, I promise." rlm@0: Hotaru gave a little nod, lightly biting down on her thin lower lip, rlm@0: as Rini wrapped her arms around her, bringing her fingers to the rlm@0: zipper at the back of Hotaru's turtleneck, drawing it down her back rlm@0: slowly, until it met the bottom at the small of her back above her rlm@0: skirt with a click. She brought her hands back up and took the cloth rlm@0: in her hands, drawing it down her shoulders and the length of her rlm@0: arms, slipping it off finally at her wrists before bringing her rosy rlm@0: eyes back up, taking in the sight carefully, Hotaru's only top rlm@0: garment now was an intricate black satin bra. rlm@0: "..Your skin is like alabaster.." rlm@0: Hotaru still had her eyes closed in shame of her hidden scars, soft rlm@0: white lines riddling her neck, collar, and down the top of her rlm@0: bosom..and a couple on her left side of her ribs and stomach. Rini rlm@0: reached out her hand to trace over the ones on her collar, her pink rlm@0: eyes sparkling in that infantile way she always had to them. rlm@0: "You're beautiful.." rlm@0: Hotaru nervously opened her eyes, looking to Rini. rlm@0: "R-..really..? You think so..?" rlm@0: "I know so Taru-koi.." rlm@0: Hotaru's somber violet eyes watered slightly, and Rini leaned rlm@0: foward, with a quiet giggle, kissing her lightly. rlm@0: "Tee-hee..my heart's beating so fast.." rlm@0: Hotaru chuckled coyly, pressing her palm gingerly above Rini's heart rlm@0: on her bosom, then placed Rini's over her own. rlm@0: "Same as mine.." rlm@0: Rini blushed this time, giggling nervously, smiling at her. rlm@0: "Rini..?" rlm@0: "Hai?" rlm@0: "M-..may I see you too?" rlm@0: Rini's cheek colour almost matched her hair by now, smiling coyly. rlm@0: "Uhm..I..guess it's only fair..^^.." rlm@0: Hotaru couldn't help but smile back, giving another nervous giggle. rlm@0: She gulped, and brought her hands to Rini's shoulders, kissing her rlm@0: softly before continuing. She let down her longer rosy hair, and rlm@0: unlaced the ribbons at her neck, carefully removing her cute pastel rlm@0: pink shirt..she always liked the pinches of colour Rini added to her rlm@0: life. She set the clothing beside hers, blushing deeply as she rlm@0: allowed her eyes to roam. Rini had on a lacy red silk bra, with a rlm@0: little bow and heart in the center, which caused her to blush worse. rlm@0: "Aiie..Rini..where'd you get such racy lingere?" rlm@0: Rini giggled, grinning and opening her eyes. rlm@0: "I saved up my allowance..Mama and Darien don't know I have it. You rlm@0: like? It's for you.." rlm@0: Hotaru chuckled and shook her head, unable to take her eyes off of rlm@0: her, her cheeks rosy. rlm@0: "Y-you're lovely..." rlm@0: Rini giggled and pointed out Hotaru's blush. rlm@0: "I finally brought some colour to yah." rlm@0: "Oh, hush!" rlm@0: They both giggled. Rini wrapped her arms around Hotaru's shoulders, rlm@0: hugging her warmly. Hotaru gave a quiet 'eep' of surprise, shyly rlm@0: wrapping her arms around Rini's waist, resting her hands at the small rlm@0: of her back, closing her eyes and nestling her face into the girl's rlm@0: rosy hair. They were so close together she could feel her heart beat rlm@0: against her own. rlm@0: "You're so warm, Rini.." rlm@0: rlm@0: Current
