Hatred vs Love
By Sailor Gorgeous
Chapter 1.....
Serena Kamingston looked at her two best friends, Amy Princeton and Rei Hamil. She admired them very much. They were the same age as her, except for Rei, who was eighteen. Rei had beautiful long black hair that when light shone on it, it sparkled purple. She had a good sense of style. Her dream was to become a beautiful bride, just like Serena's. But the two were still different. Even though they would fight at times, they were still best friends. Rei had no brothers or sisters. She lived with her grandfather.
Amy Princeton was a quiet and a shy girl. Her hair was always cut short to her shoulders, where it curled under. It was a pretty dark blue, almost black. Amy wanted to become a doctor some day. So she studies very hard to achieve her goal. It didn't seem like a long-term goal, but a short-term goal to her; it seemed easy for her to study and never hurt it her much. Amy lived alone with her mother, too.
Similarities and differences was what made them best friends. Amy helped Serena with her homework and schoolwork, while Rei taught her other things. They were like sisters to each other. They'd be there for each other, help each other, care for each other, and worry together and laugh together.
Serena was brought back to present when Amy let out news that sounded terrible to Serena.
"My brother is coming back from the Harvard University. He finally got his degree!" reported Amy excitedly.
"What?" Serena's eyes were wide. "Are you saying that that heartless guy that made fun of me and stuck gum inmyhair, laughed at me, played dumb jokes on me, is coming back? No, no, please say no, Amy." Serena shook her head.
"But Serena, it was a long time ago." Rei comforted Serena. "You were only eight or nine and he was only sixteen or seventeen!"
"'Only'?!" exclaimed Serena. She hated that guy, Darien. When she was only 8 or 9 he played jokes on her and even made her cry at times. He laughed at her, stuck gum and sand in her hair. She would never forget the horrible times with that heartless creep. "He was old enough to understand those kind of things, Rei, Ames."
"But you know he changed." protested Amy.
"Darien never changes. He stays same old Darien Princeton." Serena shook her head again.
"My family is throwing a coming-back party for him. You gotta come, Serena!" smiled Amy, trying to bring up the blonde's mood. "He's not gonna be the center of all the attention though. I mean, it's going to be like a party for King and Queen, only it's not for King and Queen, it's for Darien. C'mon. Cheer up."
"Amy, I can't. After all he has done to me. It's impossible." sighed Serena. She looked at Rei. "Rei, I know that you're happy that he's coming back. I know, 'cause you still have that crush on him, don't you?" asked Serena sadly.
Rei blushed, bringing her hands up to her cheeks. "Well, yes. But he is cute, you gotta admit at least that."
"Rei!" snapped Serena. "How could you? I mean, Darien's features sure changed into a man's. You know he's going to look different."
"Oh, maybe not." said Rei, sarcastically.
"Rei, Serena. Both of you are wrong and right." said Amy, looking at the two faces. "He's been sending photos of himself and his friends there. He has changed, but also stayed the same. You can't really tell after all these years."
"So, Ames, tell us. Why had Darien left so early?" asked Rei. Darien couldnt have for university at the age of 18 and stay there for eight years, could he? "He didn't study for eight years, did he?"
"No." Replied Amy. "He left so early, well, I think because he didn't have so many friends here or couldn't find a true girlfriend. I-I'm not sure."
"Hm." Serena also looked thoughtful. She did like Darien, but only for his cuteness. She would never admit she liked him at all. She hated his guts. She hated him. She wouldn't have to put up with him again, would she?
"Rei, don't you think that Serena and Darien sort of go together?" thought Amy aloud.
"Oh, I dunno." Said Rei. She liked Darien a lot, ever since her childhood. They fit perfectly, she considered.
"No, we don't!" snapped Serena back. She hated the thought of the two together.
"Serena is almost a grown-up woman, Rei, she should have found a boyfriend by now. Don't you think?" asked Amy.
"Well, Amy, for your information, you don't have one either!" snapped Serena, clasping her hands together and placing them on her knees.
They were sitting outside on one of the beautiful evening nights. The waves made such a soothing sound. The setting sun sent a glitter path through the Pacific Ocean. Being in California is the best, thought Serena. Both of her friends looked gorgeous in that setting sun light.
"Serena's right, Amy. You pushed away Greg. Why?" asked Rei, worrying. Greg really liked my and Rei knew Amy liked him. But she never would admit it. Because of her stupid shyness and quietness, thought Rei, she's all alone now!
"Oh, Rei, please don't push these memories back." Pleaded Amy, a pleading smile on her face.
"And you, Rei." Serena said sneakily, pushing her way toward the girl, poking her in the ribs.
"What?" said Rei disgusted. "What?" she repeated.
"You never left with Chad. You know that he had a major crush on you and you had one on him. But you never admitted it. Did ya?" Sneaked Serena.
"None of your business. That's in the past."
Serena looked up at the purple-pink-and-orange sky. It was beautiful out.
"So when does Darien come back?" asked Serena. She was surprised she had asked that question, for she hated Darien with all her heart.
"Oh, Serena, are trying to make a point out of there? Do you really like Darien?" sneaked up Rei, now.
"Ugh, no! Why, I'd never!" snapped Serena.
"He's coming back in two days. That's when the party is. Serena, Rei," Amy looked at her two best friends, "Please attend it. My parents are going to be happy."
"Well, okay." Agreed Serena. "But just for you and your parents. Not for your brother."
"I'll attend of course!" exclaimed Rei, moving closer to Amy. "Amy?" Rei purred. "Would you get the two of us together somehow, please?"
"Uh--"
"Rei, I can't believe you!" Serena stuck her ose in the air. "He's all stuck up!"
Amy laughed at the sight of the two of them fighting. They weren't really fighting. That's why it was such a nice sight.
Serena wore her best dress to the party. Why, she didn't know. Her very light pink dress had spaghetti straps and the dress itself was light and made of silk. It was perfect. She loved the dress and so did everybody else.
"Do we have to wait in this room until he shows up?" wailed Serena, falling back on the bed. They were in Darien's room. Everything was quiet even though the guests came and the party was set up.
It was planned that Amy and the girls would take him out to the party. It was planned to be a surprise, even though he'd notice the girls would be in party dresses.
"Be patient, girl." Said Amy. She looked at the bored Serena on her bed.
Rei was looking at herself in the large mirror, making sure she looked perfect. She wore a red dress that went down to her ankles. It was also made of silk. Amy's white dress was made of silk too. It went down to her knees though.
Serena wore silk gloves along with the silk dress. The dress wasn't puffy nor thin. She liked it that way. It was perfect... not for Amy's brother though! She thought. Poor Serena tried to get Darien out of her mind the past two days before the party.
Ten minutes passed.
"Rei, you can stop looking yourself over now." Said Serena. "Ten minutes passed. Aren't you tired of looking at yourself?"
"Nope." Replied Rei. "I wanna make sure I look purr-fecto." She smiled at her reflection in the mirror.
Serena let out a groan of disgust and bordom. Suddenly, a tall guy appeared in the doorway.
"Hey, Amy!" he called as he quickly hugged her. "So long time no see! You...look great. All grown up. Hey, what's the dress for?"
"You'll see." Answered Amy. "You'll be going out of this room with--"
"Two perfect ladies." He cut off.
"No, Darien. Three." Corrected Rei.
Darien looked puzzled. "Three--" and he noticed.
He stared blankly ahead at Amy's bed. There lay a beautiful woman he had never met before. So beautiful. So gorgeous.... so perfect. And that woman was before him, on the bed. His eyes never left her.
Serena quickly noticed that Darien came into the room and was already staring at her.
"Who is that?" asked Serena.
"Serena...Darien? Are you two...alright?" asked Rei. "Darien!" called Rei after he ignored her. "Stop it!" Rei poked the guy.
"Darien, this is Serena. Don't you remember her at all?" gestured Amy toward the lady on the bed. "And Serena, this is Darien. Come on guys!"
"Serena...? Is that really you?" said Darien, unsure of himself.
"Huh? You're Darien?" Serena asked, unsure herself. She looked at the gorgeous man standing in front of her. She already stood up and stared back at him. Then she and Darien blinked out as Amy pulled the two out of room.
Well, Serena knew men were crazy about her all the time. She never let them touch her body though. She would never -- until she found one perfect guy.
"Serena...you look gorgeous." Commented Darien, stepping out of the room. "Hey, sis, where are we--"
"Surprise!" everyone shouted, switching on the lights.
"Gee...." whispered Darien. But he didn't get out of control and exclaim with happiness and go eat and play. He never gone out of control. He was perfect with everything.
"All this noise, all this dancing tired me. Phew." Said Serena as she walked out of large living room with a bunch of people inside with her hand on her forehead.
She looked out the balcony. Amy sure was rich... her parents were at least, thought Serena. And I am stuck with my parents... helping them out with their damn business.
She looked at the stars in the sky and the beautiful shining crescent moon.
"It's great out, isn't it?" the voice startled her. She turned around only to see her hated one.
"Darien!" she exclaimed. "Ooh, I thought I found a peaceful place to be alone." She groaned.
"Gee, sorry. Same what I thought." Said Darien. "So--how are things going anyway?" he asked.
"Don't be nice to me just because I'm attractive." She snapped and walked onto the other end of the balcony. Darien followed.
"I-I'm not. Can't we just have a talk or something?" he looked at her as her dress flowed neatly along with her wavy hair down to her waist.
Well, I'll test him on that then. Thought Serena slyly. She would play with Darien, only just because she'd experiment him.
She turned and walked toward him suddenly. When she reached him, she placed both her hands behind her back, looking deep into his ocean-blue eyes.
Darien couldn't help himself. He put his hands on her shoulders and pulled her closer. Hungrily, he kissed her deeply, tasting her.
Serena tried to break free, hitting him with all her might on his chest. Darien had been carried away kissing her.
Finally, she broke off. "You bastard!" she shouted at him, running away.
"Wait!" he quickly, faster than he nor she expected, grabbed her by her wrist and pulled her back to him, kissing her, tasting her once more.
Seconds passed and he wouldn't let go. Serena quit struggling--she learned it was no use. She just let herself in.
"Serena--Darien!" Rei exclaimed as she stepped onto the large balcony.
