Summary: Something is going on in Serena life, she has everything... except love. Going back to Tokyo would make her remember all or would she decide to stay the same? But where is Serena and Where is Darien...?
The girls and I were having fights more frequently than before, consisting of small things in which I always ended up been the cause of the problem.
Darien and I, there's really not way to make it simple, it was the same story but just with a small difference. Our fights didn't make any sense and when they did I was the one who got hurt, always finding a way to blame everything on me. It all began when I started to show up late than usual for meeting, then why wasn't I spending more time with my so-called friends and finally our relationship; neither of us were trying to keep our relationship from sinking.
At the end of the school year was when everything begin to fall apart. We had just defeated one of our most powerful enemies, and with that I gain my latest transformation. Super Sailor Moon. It wasn't helping the fact that I was preparing for my final exams and also studying for High School entrance exams.
A lot was going on in my life back then but I was trying my best to keep up with everything. Dating was hard but Darien and I tried to go out once in while. It did took a while to go on dates but we were getting by.
But more than anything I was still a teen, I tried to keep some secrets, secrets that I was too ashamed to share with anyone, let alone my friends. Somehow I knew they would make fun of me. Every night I would take my notebook from under my bed and started to draw or in this case design, dresses, tops, skirts; you name it I was either done or working on it. I'm going to let you on in another secret, the reason as to why I was arriving late to the meeting was my latest dream. I wanted to be a designer, which also meant I had join the fashion club at school. With my record, I knew they would jump to a conclusion and assume that I manage to get in detention every single day.
After a couple of meetings at the club, I found out that one of the most hated person at school was into fashion as well. I'm usually a nice person but there was something that I just didn't like about her, like a wall was built around her. Marie Monter was a typical young girl, eager to learn and to teach what she already knew. It never occurred to me that one day something would bring us together.
The School was announcing the closing of a couple of clubs, school profit wasn't enough to keep many of them open, and they came to decision to close the fashion club. I wasn't going to let that happen, but I was surprise to see the person that would also wouldn't' let that happen.
*****Flashback*****
"I can't believe that they didn't call me for this meeting?"Serena look around to find herself looking at Darien but he didn't look back at her.
And times like this is when Serena knew something was wrong."It's only one meeting, after all is like you are never in the meetings, you are always reading a comic, been late or daydreaming"
Serena looked away, and he didn't say anything else nor that he noticed when Serena stopped walking.
so he stopped and turned to see her,and there she was looking at him "Excuse me?!, what is that suppose to mean?" "Well it means, that the girls think that you are not taking this seriously,I mean, you are always late, you say is because of detention, but the girls already went to talk to your teacher and she said that you haven't been in detention with her; and now they think, ..I'm sorry.., we think you are lying to us."
Serena knew she needed to come up with a really good excuse,But before she could answer back Darien start talking again.
"So the girls ask me to talk to you, so i call you house and your mom answer the phone..."
Serena knew all this was lost, her mom, she forgot to tell her mom not to tell anyone about she leaving before school starts and staying after school or anything.
"She told me you been doing great in school, and that you already got accepted in High School, with excellent grades"
Serena didn't know what to say, so she kept quiet.
"and i don't think you are been honest with me as well,at first i did understand why we weren't going now I don't think i know...so"
"Yeah so...?" ask Serena and gulp at the same didn't know why but she didn't like where this was going.
" ...So...you...I mean... I been looking for answers and i came up with only one solution, or actually the answer to all this, and ..."
But what happen next, she didn't know because her cell phone rang.
"Hello...""what?..."
"on my way..."
She left, which she though it was better, she didn't want to know what he was going to said next.
She walked to her school, enter a room and there she found teachers and some of the students, she knew them, they were from her fashion club. She went inside and sat in one of the chairs.
"Hello everyone, well we are here because we have an important message from the school district"
"Well you know that we are shutting down some clubs, because we can't afford them, and this is one of them, I am sorry to say that we have to close the fashion club, too."
"What?!, why?" yell many students
"Unless someone is brave enough to work all his/her way to the top, show the school district that you really want your fashion club and save this club, by making the best designs ever to put them in a fashion show in New York with six others school, of course the chess club, drawing club and many more didn't want to compete in their own, I will understand if you don't want to either"
"NO, I'LL DO IT" two blond girls scream.
Serena heard the voice and right away she was in shock. Marie Monter wanted this as much as she did.
"Well you two will have to work together if you want to win this thing, so you will meet here everyday after school and work on your designs"
Was this real? Serena didn't know what to do or say, forget that, how was she going to explain all this to the girls and Darien, or was the question, would she dare to tell them? or lie again.
"Serena?"
Snapping out of it, Serena looked up to see the girl in front of her.
"Marie"
"So i guess we are going to be working together, so meet me tomorrow here with your ideas, and I'll bring mine's"
And with that Marie left, without saying good-bye.
A week went by and Serena hadn't seen the girls or Darien.
But today was the day.
The day when everything was going to change.
Marie and Serena had been working together in their designs, everything was going great.
She walked to the school to meet with Marie.
"Hey Serena, ready to finish this?"
Serena smiled at her, she couldn't believe how much in common they had, and what an amazing friend she turned out to be.
"Yeah"
After two hours, they finished, after days of efforts and extremely long hours there it was, the design that would make them famous.
A white dress, long; it was like two in one, a dance dress and night-dress.
If you were the kind of people you like to dance and then go to a dinner, this was the best dress.
First, the scooped, strapless white bodice was overlaid with delicate embroidery and beading.
The waistline met the ball gown skirt edged with embroidery and a corset back closure.
At the waistline there was a small button, taking it, it would show the night-dress.
The upper part never-changing, bellow the waistline there was a white skirt with small pink roses, still attached to the strapless white bodice, which gave it a more elegant look.
"I can't believe this, this is beautiful" said Serena
"Yeah, I know and the judge will be here soon"
So they waited for one hour.
After that...
"I can't believe that we are going to New York?"
"AAAAAAAHHHHHHHH" both girls scream.
"I know"
"Well let's go home, to get ready and I'll see you tomorrow at the airport, Bye Serena"
"Yeah Bye"
**********End of Flashback.**********
I know my life was perfect at the moment but i did forgot about my little chat with Darien. I guess there's really no reason for anyone to feel bad for me… I'm glad i was doing the right thing Because he is responsible for what happen later.
R&R. :D
