Chapter 1: Mini Odangoes

The Arcade (Present Day)

"Hey Dare, Drew!" Blond, blue eyed Jason Taylor dropped onto the stool next to Darien.

"Hey Jace!"

"What's up? You want the usual?"

Jason nodded in answer to Andrew's question before turning to Darien. He eyed the man to whom he had pledged his loyalty to. The same man who happened to be the soul mate of his little sister. Isn't life ironic that the Princess is reincarnated as his baby sister? Of course, neither the Prince nor the Princess remembers this. They don't remember anything about their past life. Jason sighed. He felt selfish for wanting them to remember. But seeing them apart makes his heart heavy with dread, and it grew heavier at the thought of his little sister. He couldn't help feel protective of her. The memories of this lifetime made her more a sister to him than a princess.

"Everything okay, Jace?" Darien asked, concerned. Jason, like his meatball headed sister is usually so full of life.

Time to put the plan into action, the thought cheered Jason up and brought a smile to his face.

Uh oh, Darien thought. "I know that look on your face. Not a good look to have on your face. Whatever you are about to ask me, my answer is NO," he said vehemently.

"Oh, come on! You haven't even heard what I want to ask of you yet, and already you're saying NO?" Jason asked exasperatedly, a familiar whining note in his voice.

Darien smiled inwardly. He sounds like Meatball Head...Outwardly though, he remained firm "I know you. This can't be good. My answer is NO."

"Fine! Then I'll just ask Andrew instead!"

"Ask me what?" Andrew asked playing along, putting the cup of steaming Cappuccino in front of Jason. He, of course, was aware of the 'plan'.

Unaware of Andrew's knowledge of the 'plan', Jason grimaced. Hopefully, this doesn't backfire, he thought. Ah well, I'll just have to take the risk. Hopefully Darien will never give Drew the chance to say yes. Raye and the others will have my ass if I blow this. He took a deep breath and… "Us guys are taking the girls to their prom," he said, referring to himself, Kevin, Zachary, Nathan, Raye, Mina, Amy and Lita.

Taking a sip of his Cappuccino, here goes nothing, "I need one of you to take Serena."

Darien's heart beat faster. He refused to acknowledge this. "What? The Odango couldn't get a date?" he asked sarcastically. The nickname 'Odango' had come naturally out of his mouth in one of his almost daily fights with the blonde beauty and he somehow knew instinctively that the word is the Japanese translation to the other nicknames he gave her, 'Dumpling' and 'Meatball Head'. It was so instinctive that he didn't even think to question it. The same seemed to be the case with Serena.

"Are you blind man?! Have you even looked at my sister?! Of course she could get a date! She could get a dozen dates, easy! That's not the point!" Jason said frustrated, looking at Darien incredulously.

"Err…so what would be the point then?" asked Andrew, playing dumb.

"The point would be I'd rather my little sister goes to her prom with someone I can trust will not try to pop her cherry, as so many guys aim to do on prom nights!" Jason said blatantly and heatedly, knowing this would get under Darien's skin.

Darien almost chocked on his coffee. The thought of someone 'trying to pop his Odango's cherry' REALLY didn't sit well with him. She is not my Odango and this is none of my business! He tried telling himself, to no avail.

Andrew tried to hide his grin. Sharing a conspiratorial wink with Jason, he fixed a disappointed mask on his face saying "I can't. You know they'll be coming in here before going there. Everyone would be coming here before and after the prom. The arcade would be full! " he sighed dramatically. Damn! I'm good! Try getting out of that Darien!

Jason turned a pouting face towards Darien, "Dare…"

And now, to put the nail in the coffin…"I'm with Jason on this. I mean, have you not looked at Serena, Dare? What guy wouldn't want to….try something with her? How can you even think to let her go to prom with someone we don't trust?!" Andrew cut in.

Darien shifted uncomfortably in his sit. "Come on you guys, the prom is in what? Three week's time? Who knows what's going to happen in between? The world could end by then!" he said exasperatedly.

"Well, you'll need that long, at least, to convince her to go with you." Jason wouldn't give up.

Darien nearly fell off his sit. "What do you mean, convince her?!"

"Well, you can't expect her to go to prom with you without you asking her…" Andrew said, stating the obvious.

"You're the ones that want her to go with me, you tell her!" so flustered now, Darien didn't even realise that he was actually agreeing to going to the prom with Serena.

Andrew and Jason shared a triumphant look discreetly.

"This is prom Dare. It's a big deal. You can't expect me to tell her that she has to go with you, do you?" Jason asked reasonably.

"There's nothing else to it, you'll just have to woo her into going with you," Andrew said righteously.

Just then, the bell to the arcade jingled and the door opened to let a beautiful girl with long honey blonde hair and a tall man with silver blond hair in.

Great! Reinforcement! "Mina and Kevin will agree with us you know," Jason pressed the advantage.

Looking towards the couple, Darien hastily got up. "I need to go you guys. Just remembered…something…at home," he said quickly saying his good bye to his friends, greeting Mina and Kevin hurriedly before going out the door.

Walking on the outskirts of the park, Darien started making his way towards his apartment. That was close. He wasn't sure he was up to dealing with the couple. Kevin, as stoic as he may seem, has the uncanny ability to read him like a book. Sometimes it's as if he can read my mind and see right through me! And don't even get me started on Mina! Where Kevin would usually keep his thoughts to himself, Mina who is every bit as perceptive as her other half when it comes to feelings and emotions, never have a problem with barging in.

Sighing and rubbing his temple in an effort to stop an incoming migraine, all of a sudden...Darien was knocked of his feet and landed on his back with what felt like a couple of sack of potatoes on his chest and stomach. A couple of sack of potatoes with a couple of pairs of pattering feet!

He groaned. This day just gets worse and worse! I just can't catch a break...

"Daddy! Daddy!" his thoughts were interrupted and Darien looked up to the source of the commotion.

His eyes widened. He slowly sat up. I must be dreaming...can't be... he rubbed his eyes...standing in front him was two little girls around 3 to 5 years old. One of the girls had a balloon tied to her hand the shape of a black cat's head with a crescent moon on its forehead. But that is not what had him stumped. These girls, these identical twin girls, both had ODANGOES!

Get a grip Darien! "Girls..." he said gently trying to calm not just the girls, but himself as well. If it weren't for their raven hair, he could've sworn that he was looking at miniature Serena times two! Well, the pigtails are shorter and the hair is black, but otherwise, they could pass for Serena's carbon copy, albeit younger!

"Are you lost? Were you with your Daddy? Don't worry, I'll help you find him, okay?"

One of the girls started giggling whilst the other answered Darien with a mischievous smile.

"Silly Daddy! We found you!"

"Girls...I'm not your Daddy."

"Of course you are!" Now both girls stared at him with wide confident eyes, daring him to contradict them.

Deciding to placate the girls, Darien let the statement drop without refuting it again. He scratched his head, wondering what to do. Finally, thinking to retrace their steps to help find the girls' father, he asked, "What's your name? Did you just come from the park?"

One of the girls rolled her eyes. Then, as if deciding to 'play along' with her daddy, she answered regally, "I'm Suri Shields, of course."

Her sister followed suit. "...and I'm Sara Shields"

Both girls executed perfect curtsies, befitting the princesses that they were.
