Part 1 Almost Perfect
Luna narrowly escaped being squashed as Serena turned over in bed. Sensing it was no longer safe where she stood she bolted to the windowsill. She would have to think of another way to wake Serena up. Making a deep growling sound in the back of her throat Luna shouted, " WAKE UP!" "AHHH!" Serena yelped in surprise at the wake up call. Coming to her senses Serena blinked a few times then jumped to her feet. "OH NO!!!!! I'M LATE FOR SCHOOL AGAIN!!!!!!" Serena threw on her clothes and glared at Luna "Why didn't you wake me up?" but before Luna could answer Serena was already out the door. " Sometimes I wonder how she ever managed to beat Berale (Urgh , I doubt I spelled that right......Oh well) and Wise Man and all the others with an attitude like that ," she sighed.
Serena rushed into class just as the bell began to ring. " Now that was close!" Molly laughed "For once you actually got here on time.......more or less." Serena frowned " I'm on time a lot" she wined Molly laughed again "Name one time you actually got here before the bell sounded," Serena hesitated "Well ...ah....ah....I think the teachers about to talk. We should listen" "Oh yeah , the old "teachers about to talk" excuse. Very original Serena very original," "Do you have something you'd like to share with the class Molly?" asked the teacher warring a squall on her face. "No Ma'am" she responded, head bowed. The teacher nodded then cleared her throat to produce a sweeter tone in her voice. "Now before we start class I'd like to introduce you Arrion. He's a new student and I know you're all going to make him feel very welcome. Arrion come up here please" the teachers gaze was towards the back of the classroom and in less than a second everyone else's was there too. About all that was visible of him, from the very back seat, was the top of his head, for the rest was hidden behind a rather thick book.
Serena frowned "Ick another Gary type. I can't stand most brainy people they show off too much," she whispered. " I thought you like Gary........and Ami for that matter. She's brainy too ya know. And how do you know he's the brainy type?" Molly responded. " I Ami and Gary. And anyone hidden behind a book that thick ahs to be smarter than avera....." Serina was unable to finish as Arrion emerged from behind his book. He was by far the handsomest guy any girl in that class had ever seen. Arrion had black hair that reached his shoulders, which he wore in a ponytail and light, clear , beautiful, gray eyes. He was somewhere around six feet in height and wore a dark navy shirt with plain jeans , quite obviously he had not received his uniform yet..
"Wow......." Molly managed not removing her stare. "Yeah" Serena agreed "wow," Serena taking a deep breath forced herself to look away and glanced around the room. She noted that everyone (every female at least) was staring in total amazement . Even Ami was staring! Arrion grinning at all this attention happily strolled foreword and on the way stopped briefly to smile at Ami. "Did you see that?" Molly gasped. Serena nodded opened mouthed at Ami's luck. It was clear to see Ami was stunned as well by her facial expressions and by the redness of her face.
Finally Arrion took his place beside the teacher. " This is Arrion Erinacald. Arrion is very accomplished for his age. He has one every chess tournament he has ever been in, published a book, and can speak twelve different languages fluently," the teacher boasted " Is there anything you would like to add Arrion?" Arrion shook his head , smiled politly to the teacher and began walking back toward his seat , all eyes still on him.
"And then he smiled at Ami?" Letta laughed sandwich in hand, glancing from Ami beside her to Arrion eating his lunch at the side of the building. "Umhum, umhum.umhum," Serena nodded. "He just smiled at me." Ami shrugged doing her best to act casual though one could still see her blushing. Letta shook her head in disappointment and laughed once more. "Ami ," Ami frowned and took a bite of her sandwich. "Ya know whatcha should do Ami." Serena mused. Ami rolled her eyes knowing Serena would be suggesting something about what she should do with Arrion. "What?" asked Ami reluctantly tossing down her sandwich knowing she would get to do anything but eat her lunch during this period. "You should go over and talk to him," Serena suggested. "Yeah good idea," agreed Letta. "Whoa.......no way!" Ami gasped slowly backing away from her friends. " You can't make me," though she knew they probably could. "Oh yeah?" Serena smiled likeing the idea of playing "hook up" with Ami Gary slipping entirely from her mind. "Watch us" Letta finished.
"I can't believe you!" Ami grumbled as she was being carried down the schoolyard to Arrions side by Letta who had picked her up and heaved her over shoulder, she was now carrying Her as one might a sack. "Now you're going to walk over there and talk to him," said Letta dropping Ami a good ten feet from Arrion well out of ears range. Ami knew she was only delaying the inevitable but hey, if she could stall for another thirty minutes they would call everyone back in And she would be home free. "No" she said plainly crossing her arms. Letta sighed I knew we would have to do this the hard way," Before Ami could answer she felt a long push forcing her to go closer to Arrion so she was now only about five feet from him. Then there was another hard push causing her to stumble forward, trip. and fall, flat on her face. Ami winced as she sat upright." Now I know how Serena feels,"
"You okay?" a voice asked from behind her. Ami swallowed and turned. Arrion sat behind her dirt now covering his shirt and jeans. She now realized that she had tripped over him. "Oh, I tripped over you...ah .....uh....I'm sooooo sorry. I really didn't mean to." "Whoa, slow down it's okay," Once again he smiled at her got to his feet. "Are you okay?" he asked again extendending an arm to help her up. "I'm fine," Ami replied getting to her feet also. and dusting off her clothes.
" Now what are they doing?" Letta asked urgently from behind Serena who was doing her best to stay in the tree. The tree reached over part of the right side of the building, which included the bit of land where Ami and Arrion stood.. "I'm not sure," replied Serena leaning further over. "Well?" urged on Letta. "AHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!" screamed Serena as she lost her balance and fell, Ami breaking her fall. "Urgh..." came Ami's muffled voice from under Serena. Serena looked up Only to see Arrions stunned face. "Um......sorry," she squeaked as she got to her feet. Arrion lifted Ami to her feet where she stumbled forward , not able to stand into Arrions arms. "Ami?" he asked as she wrapped her arms around him for support. "I think I broke my ankle," she admitted meeting his face of concern with one of embarrassment. Serena had an idea then. "Oh, ah.....Arrion," Arrion turned his head ever so slightly to face Serena. "I'm sure Ami would love for you to help her inside to the nurse," Arrion frowned at her. "I was," he said blankly lifting a blushing Ami into his arms and carrying her inside.
There was a soft thump as Letta fell gracefully to the ground behind Serena. "Oh great ya killed Ami," Letta grumbled. Serena turned to face her. "I did not! ....... I mealy granted her a closer relationship with Arrion," "Yeah, uhhu ....... Oh well no changing the past , come on we both have to get back to class," Serena frowned maybe she should go to the nurses office and check on Ami or maybe thank her for not allowing Serena to use her somewhat like a cushion even though she was stiff and rather boney, but quickly decided agenst it . She wanted Ami and Arrion to get aquatinted.
After school that day Serena gathered the Sailor Scouts at Rei's house just so she could make sure Letta had'ent already told them that she'd nearly killed Ami. As she came up the stairs she crossed her fingers as she climbed the stairs to the temple entrance. Serena's hopes where soon destroyed when she was confronted Rei at the door. "Heard ya killed Ami," growled Rei hands on hips. "Letta told us everything," Serena pouted "I did'ent kill her! I'm sure she'll be right back in school as usual tomorrow. The night went on about like that. Rei, Letta, Mina, and even Luna and Artimises conversation only consisted of Serena's "murder".
As it turned out Serena was wrong, Ami was not back in school along with Arrion. "Ya sure ya didn't fall on both of them?" Letta teased throughout the day. Luckily both Ami and Arrion arrived the next day. As it turned out Ami had broken her ankle and was recommended to take school off for at least a week. But Ami being herself had to come back soon. She would have came back the day after the accident only Arrion had insisted that not only that she shouldn't come to school but that he stay and take care of her. They where going everywhere together now. Of course Letta and Serena still found this entertaining and always followed as well.
"You're sure you won't mind helping carry these library books home," Ami asked polightly as she pointed to another book on the bottom shelf with the end of her right crutch. " "Positive" Arrion: assured her retrieving the book she had pointed to. "This it?" he asked adding the book to the already towering pile in his arms. She nodded and they started toward the front desk.
Arrion playfully stumbled into a chair dropping the books on the table beside it As if they where execrutiatinly heavy. Ami smiled at this and turned her crutches begging to walk towards him. "Jeez ya gotta be tha strongest person in tha world Ami. How can anyone lift that many books?" Ami was beside him now and she panicked when her crutches left her. Suddenly a reassuring grip was on her hips and she was easily lowered into Arrions lap. She turned her head to see the table and soon noticed against them were her crutches. Now she turned to face to Arrion who was looking fondly at her. With that she wrapped her arms around his neck as his went around her waist. Without any further communication they were locked at the lips.
"Whoa!" shouted Serena seeing the two kiss outside the library window accompanied by Letta. "Ami's gotta a boy friend!" Serena chanted then seeing Letta's gloomy expression her smile changed to a frown. "Whats the matter?" she asked finding it strange that Letta would be sad about a kiss. "I'm feeling bad about this," she answered "Ami already had a boy friend, Gary. I'm calling him now!" she concluded on the spot and ran off into the darkness. "Letta don't ," Serena shouted running after her. .
Arrion pulled the cord to stop on the bus. Ami had gotten off a while ago and He thought about their kiss in the library as he left the bus and began walking down the road. Had the kiss been to much? Was he showing too much emotion? Shaking his head he slipped unnoticed into a dark alley and literally disappeared
He appeared again in lightless room lit only by the glow of his candle. "You are back my son" said a voice from the darkness. "Yes mother, I t is complete Sailor Mercury is mine It's time to do things my way,"
Well how was it? I'll have more later . Tell me how it was. Bye!
