"You know Darien, I've got stuff to do today. I forgot about my math test tomorrow! I should probably just go home by myself. Seeya!" Serena said, turning her back on Darien. "It's cool Serena! I remembered a physics test tomorrow anyway!" Darien called after her. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Serena ran. She ran until she was sure he was out of sight and earshot. "Moon Cosmic Power!" she called into the street. She began her transformation into Sailor Moon, ready for a battle. She rushed as fast as her moon shoes could carry her to the site of trouble. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Tuxedo Mask and the other scouts were already there by the time Sailor Moon arrived. It was a dream snatcher, Tiger's Eye. He had Ami chained up, and was peering in at her beautiful dream. "Hey! Dreams are personal and precious! By looking into people's dreams you see into their souls! How could someone be so cruel?" Sailor Moon demanded. "We defend dreams and beauty, so surrender!" Sailor Mini-Moon said at her side. "Oh no! Not you again! Finish them off, BASKETA!" Tiger's Eye called as he disappeared into his hole. A basketball-looking creature emerged from the ground and began pelting them with basketballs. "Please Pegasus! Protector of Dreams!" Mini-Moon prayed. "Crystal Twinkle Bell!" Pegasus appeared, giving Sailor Moon and Mini-Moon their special powers, and Sailor Moon the sword she needed. "Moon Gorgeous Meditation!" Sailor Moon cried, defeating Basketa easily. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ After the battle, Tuxedo Mask approached Sailor Moon. "Great battle. Good job scouts!" They all nodded and headed off. "Wait!! Tuxedo Mask, who are you?" Sailor Moon tried to say, but he was gone too soon. ~Will I never know?~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Ding-dong! "Darien! What about your test tomorrow?" Serena answered the door, surprised. "What about yours? I thought we could both use a break." Serena smiled. He was so good at convincing her of things. "Well, alright. What's up?" "Oh, well, I was thinking maybe we need to talk." ~Not THE TALK! He CAN'T be breaking up with me!~ Serena thought urgently. "Have you ever met Sailor Moon?" Serena jumped at the question. "What!?" "No, seriously. I've been wondering who she is." "Only if you've met Tuxedo Mask." Serena said dreamily. She noticed Darien wince at the name. "Why do you want to know?" he asked worridly. "I dunno. I just think he is so dashing and brave, I guess." She was surprised that Darien smiled. "So, have you?" "Once or twice." he chuckled. "REALLY?" Serena didn't believe him. "Really. Anyway, I mainly came over to ask you out tonight." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Serena and Darien sat together at their table, looking deeply again into eachother's eyes. But Serena was more lost in thought than in his eyes. ~So, I love Darien, Tuxedo Mask, and my prince from the dream. Which do I choose? One is average, one is mysterious, and one is out of reach.~ "Serena, you seem preoccupied. Shall we dance?" ~YES!~ Serena's mind yearned for another vision of her dream. She never found out what was behind the door. "Indeed, we shall." she answered. She took his hand and away they went, dancing in rhythm to the slow music. Once again, Serena looked once into Darien's dancing eyes before the dream took over. The Princess walked down the corridor. She turned the handle to what was her room and opened the door. If Serena had been concious enough, she would have gasped. On the bed was her prince, and he was DARIEN. Darien was the prince she truly belonged with. The Prince stood up, took her hand, tilted her back, and kissed her deeply. Serena fought for the dream to remain, trying to see what was happening. The prince annd princess were slowing undressing eachother, their eyes never losing sight of eachother. The dream blurred furiously as Serena heard the familiar sound of Darien's voice. "Serena. Serena! You did that thing again. Wake up!" She fluttered her eyes open, looking into the eyes that had sent her into her bliss. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Okay Serena. There's something you're not telling me. I think we're close enough now that you can trust me." Darien comforted her as they sat in his car atop the hill. "Darien, it will scare you off. It's about commitment." "Serena, I am fully commited to you and only you. I can't think of a single thing that would scare me away from you." He kissed her. "Oh, oh Darien. I have to tell someone! I've been having these dreams, for about 4 years now. They're about a princess with a kingdom on the stars. She has a prince, but I never saw him. I always wished desperatly each night that he would show his face, but never he did. Then you came to school, and all of my dreams were forgotten. I have lost track and hope of them as I get older. The first time I danced with you, the dreams were clear for the first time ever. I could live them, control them. When we danced, I felt something I'd never felt before, like we matched. You brought the dreams back. Last time, the princess was going towards her room. Just when we were dancing again, she made it. Inside was you. You as a prince. You took her hand and you danced with her and kissed her. The last thing I saw was them undressing eachother, very slowly. I think I am the Princess in the dream, and you are my prince. We belong together Darien. I love you." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Darien was taken back by this sudden rush of feelings pouring from Serena. He had no intent of ever leaving her, even though her dream sounded a little insane, yet somehow, he felt as though he had been waiting all his life to hear it. "Serena, I love you too. I'm not scared, I think it has brought us closer together in a way. Serena, I need you. I want you! More than anything I've ever wanted before! I want your love, personality, soul, and body. Serena, I really love you." "Oh, oh Darien!" Serena threw her arms around him and kissed him deeply, feeling his warmth spread through her body. "Wait..." she whispered suddenly. "What?" "You, you want my body?" "Well, yeah. You're the most beautiful girl I've ever met Serena. Your body is shapely and perfect, unlike any I've ever seen before. I need everything about you." "Darien, I, I don't know. I mean we're only-" "I know that Serena. But if love can bring us this close, then I'd rather not wait. I love you. And I want to prove it. Please Serena. It will only be an expression of our everlasting love!" Darien blurted, obviously having planned this speech long ago. "Darien, no. That's all I can say right now. No. No! NO!" "Serena, calm down! It's okay, for now. Well, I better go. After this talk, I'm kind of tired." Darien walked out the door without giving either of them room to speak again. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The next day at school Darien avoided her. She didn't need this now. Not after she had made herself venerable like that. Maybe she should just give it. It would be a lovely expression of feelings. She would, that night too. She and Darien would make love. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Darien, good to see you tonight!" Serena greeted him at the door. "Listen Serena. I'm really sorry. I had no right to try and force you into something like that. I hope I can make up for it tonight. ~Oh, you sure will!~ Serena thought hungrily. Darien took her to a lovely Italian restaurant for dinner, and to a hot night club for dancing. Darien followed many people's examples and dragged Serena into a corner to hopelessy make out with her. She pulled him back into the crowd however for more dancing. All Darien could do was watch her beautiful body move to the music, wanting her more than ever. He eagerly joined her, running his hand across the smooth fabric of her dress onto her soft breast. Serena started, but settled in as the sensation felt strangely good. "Darien..." she breathed. "Let's go." he whispered. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "I'll be right in!" Serena called as she headed for the bathroom as Darien headed for the bedroom. After Serena emerged she got a strange feeling of de ja vou as she headed for the bedroom. She walked down the hallway, her heart telling her he was in there. She turned the handle slowly. The door opened and he was there, on the bed, waiting. She realized dimly that her room beared an incredible likeness to the princess's in her dream. Darien took her in his arms and kissed her, and they danced to the music heard only in their heads. Slowly she took Darien's shirt off, throwing it aside. "Let's finish your dream." Darien whispered intimatly into her ear. Serena jolted in remembrance of her dream. "Darien, I, don't think we should..." "Serena, this is playing out perfectly. Face it, it's meant to be." "No Darien." "Serena." "No!" she yelled urgently. "Serena! Don't do this!" Serena broke his grip on her and ran from her room. ~Don't look back, don't turn back, don't do anything. Just keep running.~ her mind screamed. "Serena come back!" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The next day was Saturday. She had ran out of her house and hidden in the bushes until she saw his car leave. The phone rang, waking her finally from her awful dream of the princess. Knowing in her heart who it was, she refused to answer. She silently recalled her dream. ******************************************************************** The prince swayed in perfect time with the princess, his tuxedo halfway gone. She was left in full dress, pulled down halfway, revealing her silky bra. Suddenly someone burst into the room, looking remarkably like Crystal. "Princess! Emergency!" the girl disregarded the fact that her majesty was halfway naked. The princess looked disdainfully at the prince before pulling her dress up and rushing after the girl. "Princess! Wait! Come back!" Darien's voice called from the darkness. The Princess ran after the girl in her long skirts, knowing the mood between herself and the prince was completely ruined. #This had better be important!# she thought almost angrily. She ran through the corridor and came to the end to find... "Oh my goodness!" she shreiked. The prince ran after her, panicking because of her shreik of terror. "Oh lord, save us all." he breathed. ***************************************************************** ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ################################################################# ***************************************************************** ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Eager to know what happened?
