[Minako's eyebrows shoot up. Maybe her ears are faulty, but is Rei suggesting they change here and now? She's really forward! But she doesn't mind.]
If you wish it, Rei.
[She smiles, carefully unfolds her package, and proceeds to change without a hint of shame. She's not quite putting on a show, but she's not quite avoiding showing off.
She fully faces Rei again while buttoning the last of her buttons. When done, she poses with her hands folded neatly.]
[Rei had not meant that specifically! There was a screen for them to change behind! Oh my god Minako!!!! But...frankly, when the blonde starts changing without a trace of hesitation? Rei can't help but look. Her glance isquick, furtive at first, but Minako probably notices anyway. The question earns a gigantic blush...but an honest answer.]
...yes.
[Yes, she does. And it's every bit as nice. Minako's lovely, muscles and curves compared to her soft looks and relative lack of them.]
Just...a moment.
[Standing up, Rei slowly and quietly unrolls her own package and changes. It's a little less steady, and while her hands tremble just a bit she can't help but turn as her top falls away, giving Minako a coy look over her shoulder and retaining some modesty. She knows Minako's the far more sexual person of the two, and a little show is probably okay. It's her birthday after all.
Putting on the pajamas quickly, she turns back and dips her head.]
[Minako wonders when on earth this could have arrived---she hasn't slept much lately. Somebody is clearly a master of stealth!
She studies the packaging thoughtfully, then opens each piece. It's all so thoughtfully put together that she can't help but try it all on right away. Perfect, of course---so, naturally, at the next opportunity she'll be flinging herself at Usagi with a bright laugh.]
[Oh...oh wow, Rei. Minako knows she's startled Rei with her forwardness, and she doesn't want to stare enough to make her uncomfortable, but she catches a few glimpses. That will give her good dreams for quite a while to come, she thinks.
With Rei standing before her, she can only smile her approval. She's the embodiment of delicate yet sharp beauty, commanding even without those powerful red heels. She adores it, and finds herself reaching for a hand.]
I haven't had as long to imagine as you, but from the past minute...? Yeah, I definitely think so.
[Rei takes the hand and squeezes it before stepping forward and pressing her lips to Minako's. It's not a quick kiss, but it is gentle, probing and filled with joy enough to cause lavender to start blossoming beneath her feet.]
I'm glad. I want nothing more than your happiness today.
[Her hand gestures towards the bedstand.]
Will you share a glass or two of wine with me? It's something Grandfather and I always did on birthdays, and I hope...maybe it'll quell some nerves.
I'll try it! [Because of course she would.] I hope it's not too tough!
But yes yes come on come on! [She grabbed both their hands and began to pull lightly, guiding the way to the shore and the lake cabin in question.
Usagi is quick on her feet in her excitement and also trying to avoid the negative effects of the city when they finally do reach the cabin she pulls out the key and opens the door.]
[Rei just...stumbles along behind Usagi because lord it's hard to keep up with her when she's this excited. It's also kind of hard when she knows Usagi's more excited than she is. But then, she's used to cuddling and intimacy. Rei? knows the cabin will be her first time for that sort of thing.
[Minako nods enthusiastically once she's released. Her toes are curling already! Rei really knows how to get her going...and to turn the room into a small garden, it seems. Her own joy becomes light, decorating the ceiling like little golden stars.]
Of course I will, Rei. I can't think of anyone better to kick back and relax with. But it's a bit more than that, isn't it?
[Rei turns away to start pouring, half filling both glasses before she responds. It's tough for her, because she's eschewed this kind of thing for her entire life. Minako, conversely, was the goddess of love...and while Rei was the goddess of passion she'd never let this creep into her life till now.]
It is more than relaxing. It's a big step for us. As...Us. We haven't shared a bed before, and even if we just sleep, I know that it's new ground for us. I'm not afraid of it, but it's change. Change I want, though.
[Turning round, she offers one glass and sits on the bed.]
And if we go further...then that's a bigger step. But one I won't regret. Because I love you.
[Minako casually curls her fingers around the glass and sits beside her, thinking carefully for a few moments. Rei is so dedicated, so warm...but she knows her love needs time and patience, and that she will provide.]
I'm really glad. You've been wonderful for me, Rei, and I hope I can be as wonderful for you. But I'm happy to take this one step at a time...we have a really long time, don't we?
[Rei grips her cup solidly, looking down into the dark liquid for a thoughtful moment. She can feel Minako's eagerness, tonight. The blood surging in her, it's hard not to note the excitement, and those lavender flowers blossom beneath her feet again as she feels that understanding from Minako. That is intoxicating, it means a lot to her, knowing that her love understands her trepidation, and does wonders to banish it. At least, a little bit.]
We do. But at the same time, I don't want you to go wanting. So, we'll see, eh? I don't know how well I can resist your charms, after all.
[Her head turns, cocking to one side, and she holds up the cup.]
[She blushed and wondered if that was true, considering how much of her existence caused them trouble and didn't give them a chance for a normal life. She smiled though and giggled.]
I hope so! I kept it simple and elegant for you and for her! Dresses are way trickier than lingerie. [She didn't end up wearing her lingerie all that long around Mamoru.] But even if she doesn't, so long as you do!
[Minako gently clinks their glasses and takes a hearty sip, eyes sparkling.]
To us, my love.
[She doesn't want to push Rei too far, but already intoxicated with love...well, it doesn't take long for her to curl closer, leaning her weight against Rei comfortably. It doesn't go further than that, but it's nice.]
[Rei sighs softly, swallowing down a large gulp of wine. With Minako there, and a little bit of liquid fire in her belly, she's starting to be less nervous and more relaxed.
The question makes her take another swig.]
I am, dear.
[One more, and the wine is gone. It's a good, sweet wine that goes down easy and leaves her lips tingly. With that all gone and the glass resting on the nightstand, she turns her head, reaching one hand up to stroke Minako's cheek and using the other to support her weight on the bed. She leans toward her partner, pressing a warm, gentle kiss against the blonde girl's lips.]
Would you prefer to be the...ah...big spoon?
[She may have checked out a book on romance from the library.]
[It's not that they're out to outdrink each other, but feeling encouraged, Minako takes another sip. Slowly, she's no longer worrying so much about how Rei will take every little thing she does.
Of course, it also helps to see that welcoming expression on her face. At the invitation, she leans over Rei, her hair falling around them as she responds to the kiss as enthusiastically as she can muster. Which is very...but after a moment she forces herself to slow down. The aim's to go to sleep, not to be at this all night.]
Y'know...I think I would. I haven't had anyone except Artemis in so long, and you know him, he's a sourpuss---I love him, but you'll be more pleasant company.
[She laughs brightly, carefully rolling to the side and turning again to face Rei. Her arms snake outward, catching her waist.]
[Rei accepts her lot in life, and loving the goddess of love means that sleep may be fleeting sometimes, and tonight she'd expected it to be. The hand that was on Minako's face drops to her hip, the other propping her up with the blonde's own hand helping keep them close.]
Of course it is. Tonight, whatever you want. It's alright. It's your night and I won't deny you anything.
[Rei craned her neck up more, renewing their kiss enthusiastically, intending to show just how she felt with actions. After a half an eternity, she pulls back a bit.]
Not...everything has to be on my terms, always. It's my night to give, love. I'll tell you if you cross a line.
[Which, even Rei has to admit, is unlikely tonight. The more she thinks about it, the more tangled her thoughts become, right along with the sheets.]
