Hey you guys! I'm back. Aww. I feel so special. I got reviews. More than I
asked for, too. Soo. this chapter is dedicated to everyone that reviewed
the first chapter: Crystal-Serenity, lil, Crescentmoon*Bunny, Sailor Scout
Galadriel, and Serena-of-the-moon. Thanks so much you guys!! And don't
worry, Serena will have Darien wanting her soon enough, either in this
chapter or the next one. ^_^ Sorry it took me a while to get this out. Damn
writer's block. lol.
Just some clarification (in case you were confused): Serena and other girls (who will be introduced in this chapter) are all 18 and freshies in college. Darien and the guys are either 19 or 20 and sophomores or juniors. Serena and the girls are part of a singing group that just sings for fun (will be introduced in the next chapter). Serena is trying to keep Darien at a distance because of his rep. And the fact that she was hurt before. Okay? Okay. On with the story.
Moonlight Sonata Chapter 2

"Hey Sere!" a quartet of girls called out.
"Hey you guys. What's up?"
"Ehh. not much. Have you finished moving in to your dorm yet?" asked Raye.
"Just about. By the way, do you guys have any plans for tonight?" Being answered by a series of head shakings, she continued, "How about we have a sleepover like we used to have back when we were in high school?"
"Sure," Lita replied, "but we kind of figured that you'd want to spend some time settling in to your new place."
"I think I'm okay in settling in, it's the getting used to my roommate that's a problem."
"Who's your roommate?" asked Amy.
"This guy named Darien. He's a real pain in the ass, and I just met him today."
"That sucks. By the way, is he cute?" asked Mina. At this, everyone sweatdropped. (A.N. good ol' Mina.)
"Well, I guess most girls would think he's cute and I guess he's okay, but he definitely needs a change in his personality (A.N. I think Darien's perfect just the way he is ^_^)."
"I hate that; when the guy looks so unbelievably gorgeous, but his personality stinks (A.N. I hate that, too. Grr.). But now I feel guilty about not picking you for my roommate," Mina said.
"Hey!!" Amy said indignantly, "Just what is that supposed to mean?"
"I didn't mean it like that, Ames. It's just that I feel bad for Sere," replied Mina a little flustered.
"You better have just meant it like that," Amy said still trying to act mad even though she knew what Mina had meant from the beginning, but ruined it when a smile formed on her face.
"I told you guys, I'll be fine with a different roommate. Besides, you guys all got here before me and it would've been rude of me to ask one of you to room with me. I feel bad enough about not being here to help you guys unpack," Serena said.
"Oh stop with the guilt trip you guys. We're in college now, so let's have some fun," Lita said.
"By the way, when's our next practice? We haven't practiced for a week and I'm still kind of confused with that new dance routine you came up with, Sere," Raye said.
"How about tomorrow? Since you guys are sleeping over, you can help me finish unpacking," Serena replied with a grin.
"I knew there had to be another reason she wanted us to sleep over," Lita sighed.
"Oh come on you guys. You even said you had no plans for tonight. Plus, you can see what a conceited jerk my roomie is."
"Alright Serena, but then you have to cook dinner," Amy said.
"Okay, okay. Agreed."
"Then we'll see you and your *HOPEFULLY* cute roommate later," Mina said with stars in her eyes already picturing how hot Serena's roommate would be (A.N. he's smoldering hot. lol). With that, the girls waved goodbye and headed off to their own dorms.
+{{back at Serena's dorm}}+ 'Damnit! I knew I forgot something when I left,' Serena thought as she rummaged through her pockets for the key. She finally gave up after searching for 3 min. and knocked on the door. The door immediately opened to reveal Darien, in all his glory, wearing just a towel around his waist. At such a close distance, she couldn't help but notice his built body with its tan skin and six-pack. 'Damn.' was all she could think. Abruptly, she tore her eyes away (which took a lot of willpower) and said, "Sorry if I took you away from your cleaning ritual, but I forgot my key."
"I know," he replied and chuckled at the confused look on her face. "After you left, I saw your key still hanging on the hook."
"Well, then why didn't you run after me?"
"What and miss the look you have on your face. I knew you'd have to knock and there I would be as your knight in shining armor," he grinned.
"Please," she said rolling her eyes, "all you did was open the door." "Oh wow!" she said sarcastically, "What a feat." "You must feel so special."
Surprised that she didn't cave in to his charm, he just stood there. Happy that she left him speechless, she said, "You might want to go finish you shower. You're dripping."
With that, she walked past him and towards her room. "Oh and by the way, some of my friends are coming over for a sleepover and to help me finish unpacking. You might want to put on some clothes before they come," she smirked, looking him up and down.
+{{15 min. later}}+ "Knock, Knock!" "I'm coming," yelled Serena. "Hey you guys!" she exclaimed when she opened the door.
"Hey Sere!"
"So, uhh., where's your roommate?" asked Mina; eyes searching around the room.
"Sigh!" "I think he's getting dressed," Serena said.
"Damn Sere, what'd you do?!" Lita asked.
"What?! How could you even think I'd ever do anything with him, especially considering the fact that I just told you guys what a creep he was a while ago?" Serena asked starting to get mad.
"Because you're attracted to me, no matter how much you try to deny it."
All the girls turned to find the source of the voice. Gasping, their mouths fell open with drool when they caught a peek at Darien's chest before he finished putting his shirt on. "Oh my gosh!!" Mina exclaimed. "You're Darien Shields!!" All the other girls, except for
Serena, just stared at him with their mouths still open, like wolves drooling at prey.
"I hate to ruin this wonderful meeting. but how the hell do you guys know him?!" Serena asked seething with anger.
"Sere, sweetie, can we see you in the kitchen?" Lita asked, with too much sweetness, as she smiled at Darien.
"Okay?" Serena replied, even more confused.
As they made their way through the door leading to the kitchen, all the girls just stared at Serena with smiles on their faces.
"He looks just like my old boyfriend," Lita said dreamily.
"How the hell do you guys know him?" Serena asked repeating her question, this time with less anger.
"He's the most wanted guy on campus. He's hot, plays good ball, smart, and did I mention hot? The only bad thing about him is that he's the biggest playboy you'll ever meet," Raye replied.
Obviously, this guy was popular, as well as good-looking. Two good qualities, mixed with two bad ones. 'A playboy with a personality problem,' she thought. "Sigh." This was going to be one long night.
Soo. what'd you guys think of this chapter? Like it? Hate it? I wrote this chapter instead of doing my summer reading. Ehh. oh well. :0) I tried to make this chapter a little longer so please R&R. I won't post any more unless I get. let's say one new review for each chapter. So, come one you guys, all I need is just one more review. I'm actually getting into this story, and I promise that if you guys didn't like it yet, it will get better. hopefully. I'll even take flames (just don't be too harsh and keep in mind, this is my first fic). Any e-mail can be sent to alwayzn4ever515@aol.com. Later and take care. ^_^
