Fated Date

Part 1 - To heaven then beyond.

The two girls sat down on the brown bench below the tall oak, a warm breeze caressed them joined by the sun above and they both smiled fully enjoying the early afternoon. Love beamed as she opened the brown paper bag and revealed the doughnuts inside, trapped one between two fingers, removed it from the bag and took a large bite through the crust then looked at Setsuna. "Do you want some?" She said cheerfully and saw how Setsuna embarrassingly stroked some of her ink blue hair behind the ear and leaned forward to a bite from the doughnut where she saw remains of Love's saliva remain. Felt her heart race as she chewed and wondered how Love really tasted, kept her eyes steady on her friend and fellow Cure. Swallowed as Love took a second bite of the doughnut and mused deeply and regarded the gorgeous day around them then as she looked back at Setsuna her lips where covered in a thin sugary glaze.

A impulse shot to Setsuna's head and she leaned forward, felt the fragrance of peach that surrounded Love and it rose to her head as she aimed her lips at her friends and could feel a weak exhale just before she met them. She felt the heat of Love's lips through the sweet glaze and seized the moment and extended the kiss as she felt how Love began to follow in it, drop the doughnut onto the bench and bring her hand to Setsuna's shoulder and with fingertips she felt it carefully.

Love felt Setsuna's embarrassed exhale pass over her cheeks and left a trail of moist and a lingering scent of passion. Her lips where itching to be kissed again, her heart was beating in her chest and it resonated throughout her body and she inhaled feeling the heat of Setsuna enter into her mouth. Gently she rested her hand at the friends shoulder, smiled to show that all was okay and leaned forward and once more they kissed. The tissue or their lips tight together with a veil of moist between them.

Setsuna brought her hand to a steady rest on Love's thigh, surrendered her mind to the image of Love as she closed her eyes and took courage to heart. Slipped the tip of her tongue into Love's mouth, felt her friend grow stiff and the kiss ended. Awkwardly the two looked at each other, Setsuna leaned away feeling the taste of Love linger on her tongue as embarrassment shone bright on her cheeks.

Love touched her lips with two fingers as she looked into the day before her and felt the wind play around her legs while the sun struggled to rival the heat Setsuna's tongue had brought to her heart. It was odd how it felt so good, to have a presence so close to oneself, to have a set of lips firmly placed against ones own. Love inhaled deeply and placed the bag on doughnuts beside her then with her hands in her lap she turned her body like a flower towards Setsuna.

"Um." Love said and Setsuna looked at her with the embarrassment still remaining on her cheeks and in her eyes and her lips were unsure whether to smile or not. "Do you, did it." She forced her lips close as she flushed. "Did you like it as much as me." Love said with eyes closed touching her own kneecaps with slender fingers.

Setsuna wanted to burst into a joyous giggle but something inside her said stop and she leaned forward and caught Love's hand with her own. Rubbed her fingertips against the delicate skin as her friend opened her eyes and they looked at each other for a duration of three rushed heartbeats. "Yes." Slowly they leaned forward until they came within vicinity of each others heat, lingered close as exhales met between them and the concoction of fragrant fumes intoxicated them both and they kissed deeply and Love shivered when Setsuna slipped her some tongue.

They walked down the boulevard lined with poplar trees that billowed in the gentle breeze that had followed them all the way from the park. Their hands where joined between them and lovingly Setsuna caressed Love's hand with her fingertips and they exchanged glances that kept the smiles on their lips alive and the beats of their hearts steady.

"So Setsuna?" Love said her voice shallow with shyness. "Are you doing anything tonight?" A playful breeze disturbed her blond hair and she giggled. "I am free." She added and looked away from the two eyes that beamed back at her.

A date. It was the proper thing to do and everything that Love expected. "I have no plans." Setsuna added and inhaled deeply recalling the taste of Love. "How about we go see a film and maybe some milkshakes afterwards?" She felt Love's grip tighten on her hand and Setsuna needed no vocal reply. "I'll come by at seven." The grip tightened more and their resonating hearts shook the very foundation of their friendship.

Setsuna stood at the steps to Love's house and heard the footsteps from inside come closer. The door opened and Love's mother opened and smiled as she looked at her daughters friend and Setsuna curtsied deeply. "Good evening Mrs. Momozono." She said with her nervousness shining through her voice.

"What are you and Love up to today?" Mrs. Momozono said as she with a gesture guided Setsuna inside. "She has been up there trying to get ready for almost two hours. She leaned closer the Love her smile growing to a grin. "Is she seeing some boy?" Setsuna shook her head and the mother looked at her with eyebrows raised. "I believe that you two are on your way to a double date, she said something about a movie."

"Can I go up to her?" Setsuna said glancing towards the stairs and carefully she slipped out of her shoes and after Love's mother gave her permission she moved towards it.

Love stood with her back towards the door dressed only in blue leggings and a white shirt when she heard steps coming up the stairs, with a cold sensation down her back she turned and when Setsuna came through the door she became instantly warm. Setsuna wore a sleeveless dress that reached down to her knees and below it she had a tight white skivvy with the neck folded twice and the initial impression of Setsuna's beauty made Love smile then embarrassed she looked away. "I don't know what to wear." She said and looked over the floor and bed covered with clothes.

"That one." Setsuna said and pointed at a short white skirt embroidered with stars in varied sizes. "I think it suits you well." She turned scarlet and scratched her elbow as Love proceeded with getting dressed. Setsuna had always found Love to be cute, but now, after the kiss she looked beautiful. Her aspects had changed and the freshness of her skin and fullness of her lips were more pronounced and tempting.

"Does it look good?" Love asked as she tucked the shirt into the skirt while feeling the warm caress of Setsuna's eyes.

"You look beautiful." Honesty shone bright in Setsuna's words as they brought a glow to Love's cheeks.

Love was grateful, she felt it as her pulse rose and she smiled. "You really think so?" she was replied by a nod and wanted to embrace Setsuna and kiss her once more. Instead she fought the urge for closeness and walked over to her desk where she seized her deodorant stick and applied the fragrant substance to both her armpits while Setsuna was watching her lovingly from a distance.

Intuition brought her to walk closer to Love, saw her friend freeze with anticipation then as Setsuna embraced Love from behind and gave her a brisk kiss onto her cheek they where elevated to heaven then beyond.
