It was a warm summer afternoon at the house of many. There are 6 people that live in the house. Serena, Mina, Rei, Lita, Ami, and Darien are their names. They get along very well, and sometimes they don't. They have their arguments every once in a while.

The two that get along the most are practically best friends. They met when they were two and tried to be together as much as they possibly can. The separation of the fathers didn't work as they planned. The two were separated for years, and never heard of again until today. Now they hang out all the time.

Serena and Darien are inseparable now, but there is one thing that is keeping from each other. That is the love for one another. Whenever they hear the name, or see them something inside tick or cause a reaction. The only problem is that they have never told each other that they love the other person.

"Serena, come down stairs. I need to talk to you for a second," Venus said.

Moon respond, "Sure just give me a second to get down there."

Serena walked towards her friend. Venus was always there to tell her everything. She knew what she was going to ask. Something likes gathering new and juicy gossip. Moon was the top of the line of everything for new information in the social status. If there was anything that she didn't know Venus would be there right by her side to fill her in.

"Mina, what did you want to talk to me about? I know it has to be something from the gossip column," she said.

"Don't worry about the gossip column right now. I'm more worried about you."

"Why are you worried about me? There is nothing to be concerned about."

"Not what I meant. I mean is what are doing with your love life? I say it's about time that you need to get a boyfriend."

I get a boyfriend. There is nothing to be concerned about."

"Not what I meant. I mean is what are doing with your love life? I say it's about time that you need to get a boyfriend, and I think Darien is the right choice."

Serena laughed on what Mina said, "Venus you have a wild imagination. When did you think that I need a boyfriend? I have all the things that I need friends, no parents, and a great best friend. What else is there I need? What do you mean by Darien is the best choice?"

"Moon, I know that you have a crush on Darien. Why don't you just admit it? Actually it's not a crush anymore."

Serena stopped laughing and thought, 'When did she know about my crush?'

"Serena, listen to me. You don't have a crush on him. It's more than that. You're falling in love with. Everybody but you two can see that your bond is ready to take up to the next level. It's obvious for us to see it. Why can't you?"

"That is the most absurd thing I have ever heard. Mina, I've got to say for the goddess of love and beauty you got a have a sense of humor. We're talking about my best friend here. Best friends don't fall in love, but lovers do. End of story," Serena walked back upstairs.

'If only you can see the truth that is in front of you, Serena,' she thought.

Thinking of what Venus said and Serena didn't believe one bit of it. It was ridiculous, absurd, and preposterous. As many times she said that in her mind Serena thought of two sides of her. One side say to protest. To do nothing, and just go the way things are right now. Living a life without meaning. The other says to the opposite. To be in his arms, have no one else to have him, not letting go, and pressing her lips onto his own.

'Darien is a great guy. He's smart, athletic, creative, gentle, kind, honest, hot, and can get along with everyone. Wait did I just think that he was hot? No! Can't think like that. Serena gets a hold of yourself. He's just a boy,' she thought to herself.

"So why don't you just forget him," a little figure showed on her right shoulder.

"She shouldn't, and they were meant to be together," another figure showed on her left shoulder, "Serena, you should tell him what you really feel. You will only hurt yourself if you don't tell him. Others can't, but you can. Just think what if someone else got to him before you do? What would you do?"

"So what if she actually told him, will he reject her? Listen to me. You can only rely on yourself and no one else."

"This is your chance to tell him. It's now or never. You will know when it's the right time to tell him," both of the figures disappeared.

"How will I know if you know what you're wanting for me to know?" she asked to herself.

"Know about what, Serena?" Darien asked her.

Serena turned around to face him at the door. Her cheeks shaded into a bright pink. She felt so embarrassed talking to herself, and someone hearing it.

"Talking to yourself again, Serena," he said.

"Yeah," she paused, "How long have you been standing there?"

"Not to long. Just only heard knows about you wanting to know about something."

She walked over towards her bed, started to put some pants away, and said, "So what did you come in here for?"

"I came to ask for a favor," she turns towards him, "Can you fix the hole in my shirt. I need it for today."

"Sure let me get some thread, and I will be right back."

She walked into her closet trying to find her spools of thread. Somehow something was going to happen, but she couldn't figure out what it was.

Serena found the thread that she needed, but when she was about to come out of the closet she saw something. She saw Darien taking off his shirt. He was showing his upper body. His tanned skin with a well built muscles. His rock hard abs and everything was perfect from his upper body.

Serena dropped her stuff, crawled away from the door, and putting her hands on her mouth.

She thought to herself, 'Oh no! How can I stand to see him like that? Ok Serena, get a grip. He's just a boy. You've seen worse things on TV. So you can handle it, but why am I freaking out?'

Meanwhile Darien was still figuring out why Serena hasn't come out of her closet yet.

"Serena, have you found what you were looking for?" he asked.

"Yes, I have found it," with a stagger voice.

""Then why don't you come out," he said warmingly.

She walked out of the closet with her eyes closed, "Gomen nasai. I just lost it in there for a minute."

"It's alright. Everybody does that. Has anything come up for you to up on the school paper for the beginning of the new school year?"

She started patching up his shirt, "No, just the usual. Teachers want raises, drama needs things for the set of the play, and I'm not telling you what it is. Remember the last time I told you?"

"I only told Andrew. How was I supposed to know that he was going to tell the whole school?" she was sitting on his lap, and his hands surrounded her bare stomach where her mid drift had cut off.

Her back stiffened, and sent a chill down to her spine. She started to blush a light red color. Her eyes shot wide open, and then she slowly started to calm herself down.

"Anyways Mina is doing on the gossip column again, Ami is working on the pictures for some of the main articles, and I don't know who else is on the staff. Why do you ask?" she asked.

"I was thinking that the school can do a poll about what the qualities are in for a boyfriend or girlfriend. Let's start with you. What do you think?"

"What I think of qualities for a boyfriend? Well a guy should be nice, generous, gentle, definitely a Christian, studious, creative, handsome, and sometimes seductive."

Serena bit off the thread to tie the knot, and she finished the process. She got out of his lap, and gave back his shirt. He slid it back on himself.

"Serena, who would you think that can be boyfriend material?"

"That's for me to know, and for you to never find out."

"The people need to know what Serena Tsukino is doing in the matters of her love life," acting like a journalist.

"If you are so persistent, then you should put this on the paper," she hit him with a pillow.

Serena ran towards the other side of the room. Not to be hit by her opponent. He grabbed one of her pillows, and engaged into a massive pillow fight. Feathers were flying all over the room from hitting each other. She dodged on of his attacks, and she did a 720 back flip with her feet on the bed.

He thought that she was going to go backwards to another direction, but she ran off towards the front of the bed. Darien quickly ran towards Serena. What he didn't know the she fell, and accidentally landed on top of him.

With their faces looking at each other, their bodies molded perfectly together. This has been the closest they have ever been to each other in their whole lives. Their lips were just two inches. As they lean towards to each other, coming closer and closer, and their eyes closed slowly.

She thought, 'Is he going to kiss me?'

He thought of the same thing. Until they heard a faint sound from the hallway, and the two friends got back into reality. Serena got off of him, and helped Darien to his feet. Neither of them said anything as he walked out of the room. She closed the door slowly.

Leaning against the door with her head down and said softly, "Maybe I do love him."
