Return My Love

Intro: How It Was Born

At the Grand Ball Room

"You're getting better." Darien whispered into Serena's ear. "Do you really think so?" She asked her voice filled with hope. "Yep, you haven't gone by the buffet table in 15 minutes." He stated with a small chuckle.

Currently they were waltzing. And Serena was dressed nicely in a gown that made her look like a princess, even though she knew she was one. It was a nice shade of red to go with the rose on Darien's black tux. The gown was strapless and it hugged her young frame perfectly.

She had on a black strapped choker that had a cute fake red rose on it made of plastic. For her make up she had on red lip stick and very light applied red eye shadow. Her hair was put up in its unusual pig tails. And to top off her outfit she had on red heels that strapped around her ankle and again over her foot. To her relief she hadn't fallen in them yet.

"You look so beautiful Serena." Darien stated breathlessly causing Serena to blush slightly. "Thank you." She whispered.

And finally the waltz ended and Darien left Serena at the buffet table to go over and tell his friend that he threw an elegant party and that he would be leaving with his date. As Serena waited patiently for Darien to return trying to fight thetemptation to grab one of the delicious looking finger sandwiches, a group of snobby looking girls came over.

"Um…hi." Serena stated confused as to why they stared at her so. "I can't believe you're the girl that Darien is seeing." One of them said out loud, ignoring Serena's greeting.

"Please she's nothing but trash. He'll leave her in no time." "I can't believe he's babysitting. It's oblivious she's younger than him." Two others said. "Hey just you wait a minute!" Serena steamed. "Shut up." The leader of the group barked. She had black eyes and brownhair.

She was well built and better looking than Serena. Serena gulped as she watched her make her way through the crowd of girls before her that were talking so rudely.

"I'm Sora Tomochi." "Serena…" "Charmed I'm sure." Sora said sourly as she cut off Serena. "So you're seeing Darien right?" She asked. Hesitantly, Serena nodded. "Humph." Was her response. "Darien can do so much better." Sora finally stated as she looked Serena up and down.

"What?" Serena exploded again. "Well you see I use to go out with Darien, but to see him with a dip stick like you. Tsk, Tsk." She stated chuckling at the younger girl's frustration that was ever so present on her face.

"Sora!" Darien stated in a near yell.

"And speak of the devil." She stated a grin plastered on her face. "Sora you're drunk go away." He said firmly as he walked up to Serena and put a hand on her protectively. "Oh you're no fun Darien." Sora replied as she and her friends turned around and walked off laughing.

"Serena are you okay?" Darien asked after a while of watching Sora walk off with cold eyes. Serena hesitated, but she finally answered him and they were off. Not looking back at the building.

LATER ON

"Um Darien?" "Yes Serena?" Darien questioned as he walked her up to the door of her house. "Do you…I mean…Oh never mind it's silly." Serena replied as she smiled at him. But it didn't convince Darien.

"No Serena something's the matter. You haven't really been acting the same since we left my friend's party." Darien said as he looked at Serena with serious eyes. Serena only sighed as she prepared herself for what she had to ask Darien.

"Darien do you feel like you're babysitting me whenever I'm around you?" Serena asked as she looked up at him, her crystal blue eyes looking at him questioningly. Darien was flabbergasted by Serena's question, yet his face remained emotionless.

"Um it's getting late Serena. Maybe I'll see you tomorrow?" Darien asked as he looked away down the dark streets. With a sad expression on her face Serena looked at her door and while fishing in her coat pocket for her house key.

"Yeah…tomorrow." Serena whispered as her eyes began to sting with tears she wouldn't let fall. 'I should have known.' She thought as she unlocked her door.

Darien looked back at Serena and it hurt him to see her look so down. "Serena." He started. But Serena silenced him with her hand covering his mouth gently. "Don't worry…I'll see you tomorrow." She said as she forced a smile on her face.

Though still unconvinced, Darien just nodded his head and before he left, he placed a kiss on Serena's cheek. She watched him jog down the stairs and walk slowly in the cold night down the street before she opened her door and walked inside.

"But Darien didn't agree did he?" Luna asked the crying Serena.

"No" Serena said in-betweensniffles. "But he didn't say anything when I asked him either and that' s just as bad." Serena wailed as she lifted her head from the safety of her arms to look at Luna. Luna gave Serena a perplexed look as she moved from her spot on the floor and jumped up onto Serena's desk.

"Surely his silence doesn't indicate the worst Serena." Luna said as she walked closer to her. "Sure it does! Lots of people who don't want to tell the honest truth because they know it will hurt somebody stay silent when asked a question like that!" Serena exclaimed, jumping up from her chair and startling Luna by her rash movement.

"Hey be quiet Serena! Some of us are trying to sleep!" Serena heard her brother yell down at her room.

After waiting a moment Serena sighed and plopped down on her bed as she let a sob escape her lips. "Well I for one say that you're just over reacting." Luna said hotly, giving up on trying to make her feel better. "Some friend you are." Serena growled quietly as she got under her covers and dramatically laid down showing her back to Luna.

Luna sighed as she shook her head. 'She'll be fine in the morning I'm sure of it.' Luna thought to herself as she decided it would be best if she just slept where she was and not on the foot of Serena's bed like she normally did.

"Hehehe….So the Princess feels some sort of insecurity about her lover." A dark feminine voice said amused to herself as she watch Serena through a crystal orb. "Perfect." She added as she began to laugh evilly.

"My lady." A voice came from behind her. "What is it brat?" The woman asked annoyed. "So you've found a weakness in the Princess then?" The child servant asked as she bowed to her superior. "Yes, yes…Soon the power of Sailor Moon shall be mine to control! But first I must take over the daughter of the late Queen Serenity in order to wield such power." The woman said as she returned her gaze from the servant to the orb.

"I will make history as I destroy Sailor Moon and the Sailor deweebs once and for all!" The lady laughed. "And my Lady's name shall be known and feared all throughout the galaxy!" "Yes!" The woman shrieked in joy, her pale white fists balling up in excitement.

"Everyone will then know the name, Lady Cheza, throughout the galaxy and cringe in fear as they remember the legend behind it!" Lady Cheza exclaimed as she turned tothe child. "Prepare for our landing on Earth! There's a certain little moon princess who could use our shoulder to cry on right now." Lady Cheza said in mock sadness as the child bowed to do as she bid.
