I don't own Sailor Moon or the song that is in here. I realize I haven't updated my other stories. Sorry, writer's block. This came to me in a dream actually. Weird... On with the story!
Serena is talking to Darien and Andrew in the arcade, when Mina came running in! She couldn't stop in time and crashed into Serena.
They went flying into a corner, knocking all the debris around. Serena got up, rubbing her head. "Hey, Mina. What's up?"
Mina was red-faced and Serena thought it was the enemy. But she couldn't say anything in front of Andrew. (Darien knows by now).
"Is it...you-know-who?" she whispers to Mina.
Mina shook her head. Serena let out a huge sigh. "So, what is it?"
Mina catches her breath and holds up a poster. All three of them looked. Darien looked up, eyebrows raised. "A talent show?"
Mina grins and nods. "You knocked me down and messed up the arcade because of a talent show?" Serena asks in disbelief.
Mina nods. "Not just that."
Serena got a bad feeling. "I'm going to regret this, but what else is there?"
"I was thinking we could...you know..."
"You want me to enter the talent show with you?" Serena asks.
Mina smiles. "No way. I entered one when I was 11 and hated it."
"But we're 14 now. It's been 3 years." Serena didn't look convinced. "Please enter with me. I'll cry if you don't." Mina whines.
"Fine. I'll enter with you." Serena sighs.
Mina screams, causing everyone to cover their ears. "And I thought Serena was loud." Andrew says. Mina ignores him and grabs Serena's hand. "Let's go practice!"
"Whoa!" Serena shouts, being pulled out of the arcade. She turns and waves. "Bye guys!"
The two guys watch and sigh. "This is going to be interesting." Darien says. Andrew agrees.
At Mina's house, Mina is searching for something. "What are you looking for?" Serena asks. Mina comes out, holding a CD. "This!" She hands it to Serena. She looks at it. "The ATeens?" Mina grins. "Yep. I love their song "I can't help falling in love with you."
She puts it in her CD player and hits play. Once the song is over, Mina looks at Serena, happily.
Serena sighs. "I'm guessing you want to sing that song."
"Of course. We just need a guy for the two parts." Mina says. "Do you think Darien will do it?"
"No way. He is so anti-pop music. It's actually funny to play Spice Girls around him." Serena laughs.
Mina sighs. Serena looks at her. "What's wrong? We can get someone else."
"It's not that. Do you love Darien?" Mina asks.
This surprises Serena. "What?"
Mina repeats the question. "Yeah, I do. Why?"
"And he loves you?"
"I'm pretty sure he does."
Mina sighs again. Serena understands. "Oh I see. You want a boyfriend."
"Or at least a date." Mina says. Serena moves closer and puts her arm around her. "Is there someone you like?"
Mina hesitates. "Well, there is one guy, but..."
"Who is it?" Serena prods.
Mina hesitates again. "Come on, tell me." Serena whines.
"It's Andrew."
Serena screams. "Oh my God! You are crushing on Andrew!"
"Shut up!" Mina covers her mouth. "My dad might hear."
Serena pries her hand off, laughing. "If you like him, tell him."
"I can't do that." Mina gasps, eyes wide.
"Why not?" Serena asks.
"Because he's way older and I'm still in junior high."
"So? Darien's older than me and I'm still in junior high."
"Well, you guys were already matched up 1,000 years ago. You have a little advantage." Mina says sarcastically.
"Yeah, we do. But..." Mina stops her. "Let's try to think of someone else who can sing." Serena decides to let the subject drop, for now...
The night of the talent show, Mina is freaking out. "Oh no, are you guys sure we'll be all right?"
Serena and Jake (a friend of Mina's, who's singing.) sigh. "For the umpteenth time, we'll be fine." Serena comforts her.
"We practice enough." Jake laughs.
Mina attempts a smile. "You're right. Come on, help me get ready." She grabs Serena and they go off to get ready.
The show starts. An announcer comes on. "Hello and welcome to the 6th Annual Community Talent Show!" The audience claps and cheers. "Our first act is the Amazing Mumbo!"
A teenage boy comes on, decked out in a magician's costume and starts. Serena, Mina and Jake watch from the wings. "Wow, he's good." Mina gulps.
Serena stares at her. "Good? The boy's costume is way to big, for one thing." Mina's biting her nails. Serena grabs her hand. "Don't bit. We got a manicure today for a reason."
Mina nods and her and Jake go to their places. The Amazing Mumbo finishes. He bows and walks off. He passes Serena and scoffs. "Good luck following my act." Serena watches him go. "Attitude."
The announcer comes on. "That was great. Next up is Serena, Mina and Jake!" Serena hears Darien whistling and takes a deep breath.
The announcer walks off and the music is cued. Serena and Mina start harmonizing the opening lyrics. "Do do do do do do do do do de do (do do). I just can't help falling in love with you." Serena comes out singing, "Wise man say only fools rush in but I can't help falling in love with you." Mina comes out singing, "Shall (Shall) I stay (I stay) would it be a sin (be a sin). If I can't help falling in love with you."
They part and Jake comes in from the back, singing. "Like a river flows (Ooh Ooh Ooh) to the sea so it goes (Ooh Ooh Ooh) some things are meant to be (some things are meant to be)."
They all sing the chorus, Serena doing a flip across the stage and Mina spinning into Jake. "Take (take) my hand (my hand) take my whole life too (whole life too) for I can't help falling in love with you."
Mina starts to sing. "Wise men say only fools rush in." Serena takes over. "But I can't (I can't) help falling in love (falling in love) with you (with you)."
They part once again and Jake comes in from the back, singing. "Like a river flows (Ooh Ooh Ooh) to the sea so it goes (Ooh Ooh Ooh) some things are meant to be (some things are meant to be)."
They all sing the chorus again, this time Mina doing the flip and Serena spinning into Jake. "Take (take) my hand (my hand) take my whole life too (whole life too) for I (I) can't help falling in love with you." They repeat it. "Take (take) my hand (my hand) take my whole life too (whole life too) for I (I) can't help falling in love with you (falling in love with you) for I (I) can't help falling in love (love love love) falling in love with you."
They all continue singing. "Like a river flows that's the way it goes I just can't falling in love with you (falling in love with you)." They repeat it four times, the last time Jake doing the flip downstage and the girls ending the song by leaning on his shoulders.
The audience starts screaming, clapping and whistling. Serena's out of breath, but happy. Suddenly, the room gets fuzzy. She starts breathing harder and she feels tired. She shuts her eyes and slumps down.
Mina looks and gasps. "Serena!" Darien, Andrew, the girls, Molly and Serena's family all run to the stage.
Mina shakes Serena and the same thing happens to her. The last thing Mina hears is someone shouting her name.
I hope it's good. I hope I have all the lyrics right. If not, I'm sorry. Pleaz RR
