'What a jerk!' she thought to herself as she headed to the arcade.What did I ever see in that Baka anyway.Tears started to stream down her face as she remebered the encounter.
~~FlashBack~~
"Serena, Hey Serena! Wait up" Josh yelled as he ran after her.
"Oh hey Josh, what's up?" "Um not much, .....I think we should talk about somethin." he said nervously. 'He is so cute when he is nervous' she thought to herself. "Sure, what about?" she said as she gave him hug to greet him.
"You know I care about you alot right?" he began. "Yeah, I know and I care a lot about you too." "But......" 'Oh this can't be good' she thought to herself as she looked into his saphire blue eyes. "But what Josh?" She questioned
"Ithinkweneedabreakforabit."he hurridly said.
"You What!"Serena raised her voice, hoping that she heard him wrong.
"Serena" he started as he placed his hands on her shoulders.
"I think we need to explore our options with other people." Tears began to run down her face....she couldn't believe this not more than two minutes ago he said that he cared about her a lot.
"You think we need to explore our options, Josh what's up with you...not less than two seconds ago you had said you cared a lot about me. Now you wanna break up with me? I don't get it, what did I do?" she replied as more tears began to fall down her face.
"Serena, don't cry" he went to wipe her tears away, but she pushed his hands away from her.
"Don't Josh, ...don't touch me."she said angerily."Josh I want the truth and I want it now!, cause people who care for each other just don't break up like this." she demanded.
Josh took in a deep breath and he realized there was no way out of this."Serena I have feelings for you, but only as a friend....I can't be more with you. Your like a sister to me."
"Like a sister huh! And this took you the entire five months to figure out. Fine you know what your right we need a break...Josh I don't want to see you again!" She replied angerily and took off for the Arcade.
'Well that was a lot easier than I expected' he thought to himself
"Joshua come on...did you break up with that loser already?" Callista said snidley.
"Yes I did, now let's go to the beach" he said as he jumped into her car. 'Goodbye Serena I will miss you' he thought as they left for the beach.
~~End Of Flashback~~
Serena began to run faster at the thought of what had happened. Not paying attention to what was in front of her, until she collided into someone.'Gawd could this day get any worse' she thought as she looked to see who she ran into.
"Watch were your going meatball head!" Darien Chiba said.
'Yep it just got worse' she thought. "Oh I am so sorry mister....mister I'm sorry what's your name?" Seren said as she looked at the handsome man in front of her.
"Chiba...my name is Darien Chiba." He said hastily. "And yours must be...what meatball head?" he said snidely.
'Oh great we got our selves a comedian' Serena thought."No my name is not meatball head you baka...my name is Serena!" she replied
"Well Serena..you seem to be a little fiesty now don't you....but I think I will call you meatball head..much more fitting" he said as he flicked one of her pigtails.
"That's it! What is it ass hole day!"she said as she pushed Darien out of her way."Well Mr.Chiba I am sorry for running into you, but if you don't mind I am quite tired of everyone's shit for the day!" and with that she left.
'Something about that girl...seems so familiar.'he pondered to himself, as he headed to the arcade to talk to Andrew to see if he knew who this girl was. 'The nerve of that guy calling me meatball head, he doesn't even know me.' she thought to herself as she entered the arcade.
"Hey Serena!"
"Hey Andrew!" she said excitedly.
"Serena over here!" her friends chorused together waving their hands franticly to get her attention.
"Hey guys!" she said as she faked her biggest smile.Hoping they would think everything was alright. Nope no such luck.
"What's wrong Serena?" Ami asked. Serena sat down and ordered a chocolate shake as she began to explain her story to her friends. She told them everything about what Josh had said and her encounter with Mr.Chiba.
"He sounds like.."Lita began.
"Your ex-boyfriend" every said as all together as they began to laugh. Just then Mina had a brillant idea pop into her mind as she went over to the karaoke machine, and found what she was looking for. She grabbed a mic as the music began.
"Oh no, ... not again" Andrew thought to himself...'Poor Serena'
"At first I was afraid, I was petrified" she began
"Mina what the hell are you doing?" Serena yelled as mina grabbed her hand as Mina dragged her over there.
"Take it Raye" Mina yelled
"Kept thinking I could never live without you by my side." Raye Began.
"Mina No Way!" Serena yelled
"oh come on Serena" All the girls went up on stage, and picked up mics and began to sing along with Mina. "But then I spent so many nights on how you did me wrong and I grew strong. And I knew how to get along, and so your back from out of space.I just walked in to find you with that sad look on your face"
Serena knew she would not win this little spat and picked up a mic with them and began singing along and dancing. As They started a kick line to the music.
"Just turn around now cause your not welcome anymore, weren't you the one who tried to hurt me with goodbye. and did I crumble did I lay down and die. Oh no not I. Iwill survive." They all sang as Andrew sat down watching.
Darien walked into the arcade and about had a heart attack when he saw five disco dancing girls. On the stage one of which who was Serena.
"As long as I know how to love I know I will survive.I've got all my life to live and all my love to give.I will survive. I will survive hey hey!" The girls danced as the instrumental break began.
Darien very carefully walked over to Andrew and whispered "So do they always do this?"Darien said "Oh you should see them at Christmas time....they normaly do this when one of the girls gets dumped or has had a really bad day. I am amazed you have never seen this before, but I guess you normaly wouldn't cause your at work when they come in." Darien was absolutly shocked and almost started laughing when they started singing again..
Serena and Raye had began to tango during the song, laughing and singing. "I spent oh so many nights feeling sorry for my self." Mina sang
"Oh Know I hold my head up high, and you see me somebody new, I am not that Chained up little person still in love with you.And so you felt like dropping and expecting me,to be free. and now I am saving all my loving for someone who's loving me." They chorused.
Then Ami, Raye and Serena started a mini kick line as Mina jumped on Lita's back as they sang into the microphone.
Darien and Andrew was absolutly shocked at this, not knowing what to do. Their Jaws just wide open..
"Go now on go, walk out the door just turn around now cause your not welcome anymore. Weren't you the one who tried to hurt with goodbye, did I crumble did I lay down and die.Oh no not I, I will Survive as long as I know how to love I know I will survive.I've got all my life to live and all my love to give.I will survive. I will survive hey hey!" When the song ended the girls realized they had an audience, and as true performers, bowed their head, and walked off the stage.
"Now that we got that out of your system Mina, let's get a.."Serena Stopped in her words as she realized who was in the audience."Well, Well Mr. Chiba I am surprised to find you here.I Figured such a man of your ::she paused for a moment and finished her reply:: ...stature would have better things to do then be in a arcade." she said codly.
Mina's jaw practicaly hit the ground when she heard Serena say that. 'He must have made her very mad...this is very un serena like.' Mina thought.
"Very nice to see you again too...meatball head. So as I was asking my friend Andrew here...do you guys do this often?" He asked.
"Well Mr.Chiba that is a secret.... if I told you, I would have to kill you." she replied through a smile."Oh yeah, hey Andrew we need five milshakes..the usual, and these are to go." she said as she handed him the money. As the Ami. Lita, and Raye joined them at the counter.
"No problem Serena." Andrew said as he geve her, her change.
'Wow is she beautiful, she is such an angel' Darien thought to himself. Not realizing he was staring at her, but Andrew noticed....'hmmm I might be able to make Darien a Little more social...but first I have to get him to admit it to me.'
"Here you go girls" Andrew said as she handed the five girls their drinks.
"Thanks Andrew" the girls replied at the same time.
"See ya around meatball head." Darien called after her
"Meatball Head?? that's great..Serena is a meatball head" Raye said as she laughed.
"Raye you call me meatball head again and I will be forced to have to kill you" Serena said seriously as Raye gulped and nodded knowing full well Serena was dead serious..
"And you Mr.Chiba I hope to not have the pleasentry's of running into again." she scoffed as she left the Arcade.
Andrew waited until they left sight and turned to Darien. "You like her" Andrew said
"Do not!" Darien denied
"Do too."
"Do not."
"Do too."
"Do not."
"Do too."
"Do not." Andrew said.
"Do too." Darien said..."Hey wait damn it you tricked me!!"
"Ah ha! I knew it!...But Darien this is not a very good way to make first impressions...try being nice." Andrew had Said.
"I know Andrew...I just don't know how to talk to her." Darien replied as he put his face in his hands.
