Disclaimer: I do not own Sailor Moon. :)
Once again I hope you all like and decide to leave reviews! On other notes please check out my other stories via my profile :) Awwh, I'm so glad within hardly a week over 100 people have read my story. I really appreciate all the feedback - honestly I didn't think any of it was funny at all. But hey, what ever floats your boat.
Because of such wonderful reviewers - I have decided to type out another chapter today. Read n' Review!
Chapter 4
She had hit him. Serena Tsukino's tiny fist had collided with Darien Shield's left eye. She didn't regret it - as of now. She more or less felt quite proud she stood up to him. All month, well ever since he had moved here, it seemed, he done nothing but aggrivate her. She had warned him to begin with, he was messing with fire and sure enough...he had been burnt by the fire.
The moment was on replay in her head entering her apartment, a quaint smile of satisfaction spread widely across her face. The jerk, no the baka got exactly what he asked for. Serves the gorgeous arrogant bastard right...holy fuck! Serena stopped and stood there for a moment, realizing what her mind had just internally verbalized.
Gorgeous.
Oh please give it a rest, Serena once you get passed his annoying charms he really is.
Charms? Gorgeous? "Shut the fuck you demented brain!" She screamed at herself walking toward the bathroom, "I never want to think about that rotten bastard known as Darien Shields as being gorgeous - AGAIN!" Turning on the shower she stood there, not pacing like usual but just stood there.
You still have Seiya's number! You lucky bitch! A broad grin plastered itself on her face. How she already adored the man. Maybe there was hope after all in the relationship department for her. He didn't cringe or laugh at her. Didn't call her a klutz like other people she was aquainted with. Seiya had on the contrary been quite a gentleman, something that was becomming rare around Tokyo.
Not only that but she could finally begin to think she wouldn't end up an old maid, hell he might even pop her - she stopped her mind internally verbalizing that comment too. But at least she didn't blush when the thought first occured. She always blushed when it came to sex, just one of many topics that embarrassed her to no ends. But thankfully she wasn't blushing....damn it never mind, the crimson spread her pale cheeks within seconds.
After the warm refreshing shower, Serena changed into a knee length purple night gown and piled her blond hair atop her head in a surprisingly neat bun. Tonight was the premiere of 'Dancing with The Stars' and her favore piece of man candy, Evan Lysecek happpend to be dancing tonight! She turned on the tv and grabbed a lime gatorade coming back into the living area, bundling up on the couch. Nothing is about to ruin a perfect evening like this.
[ten minutes later]
"GET OUT OF MY FACE YOU FUGLY BITCH!"
The gatorade somehow managed to find it's way out of Serena's mouth and onto the tv screen - mysteriously. She glared from the wet tv to the door of her apartment. So much for a peaceful evening of drooling over Evan. Yes I said drooling. She listenined intently trying to figure out who the voices belonged to.
"But, I just wanted to see you honey!"
That was the most pathetic attempt at winning a guy, Serena had heard in her life. She slowly crept toward the door to hear them better. He was cussing her like there was no tomorrow. Then there was a deafening silence followed by a outburst.
"YOU DARE CALL ME FUGLY? LOOK AT THAT WHORE YOU RUN WITH! STUPID BLOND BITCH! I'M NOT STUNNED SHE GAVE YOU A SHINER DARIEN!"
Serena rolled her eyes, "I think Darien has too many female fans. I can't believe she called me a whore." Yes, Serena handled it all quite well and continued to listen.
"SHE GOT LUCKY!"
"DID YOU FUCK HER YET?" The snide remark left Serena scarlett, now it was time to intervene. Unlocking her apartment door she slowly poked her head in the hall. Of course, a trashy carrot top, woman stood arms crossed shoving her extremely large bust up and out. Serena felt the cheeseburger she had earlier rising in her stomach and smelt something lethal or something that should be considered lethal, oh wait, never mind that's just the disgusting odor of horrible perfume lurching in the hall.
Darien began to open his mouth but quickly shut it, something caught his eye - something shiny. Serena was standing at the opposite end of the hall glaring at them - mostly his stalker. He almost..almost felt the strong urge to grab Beryl and kiss her senseless but he just couldn't do it. Beryl noticed his distant look and rolled her eyes.
"What is it, did I step on the cat's tail?"
He nodded disagreeing noticing Serena walking toward the two of them with fire in her eyes, fists clenched, and from the look of her walking she was anything but calm.
"Excuse me Miss, there are people who live in this apartment building other than Mr. Shields. Take your business elsewhere or I'm calling the police!" Serena gently tapped Beryl's shoulder earning herself a scowl from the woman. Impressive, Beryl even turned around to acknowledge her.
When Beryl did, a sneer drew on her face, "So this is the bitch who left you that shiner? How pathetic!" She didn't like Serena not only because of jealously but because she didn't see what the younger girl had that she didn't. Why was Darien so interested her? "You know something Darien, she isn't as busty as me..wonder how that makes you feel?" an awful laugh left the woman's mouth as she flipped the red locks over her shoulder quite proud of her rude remark.
"Wow, you are fucking dumb! You better move your ass out of here, bitch before I call the police!" Serena tried devestatingly hard to hide the hurt but couldn't fool anyone. The woman looked quite pleased with herself seeing how she made Serena feel little and small and more importantly - inadequete.
"Trust me, I'm going. Tootles Darien!" she walked off swinging her hips down the hall. Serena didn't like her at all. Quite honestly she felt even more ugly now that the woman had criticized her body. What right did she have?
"Serena, I'm -"
"Save it baka! I'm not above giving you another one of those!" She stalked off back to her own apartment, tears slowly spilling from her eyes. She latched the door shut and locked it, turned the tv off and headed toward her bed, alone. How she wished she could move from this place.

"Hey Rei, Lita, Mina!" Serena walked in the Arcade, last events still clearly etched over her face. She didn't feel quite as bubbly as usual. Rei noticed the sour expression on Serena's face as well did Lita. Mina was too busy oogling over Kunzite who decided to grace them with his presence.
"You like you've been hit with a train!"
"Thanks, Lita! That makes me feel super duper!" Serena gave her a thumbs up with much sarcasm intended. Not that she wasn't dressed cutely or anything of that nature, just her aura didn't feel the same. "Last night wasn't a good night,"
"How so?" Andrew appeared over at their booth ready to take their order.
"Some trash ass woman followed Darien back to his apartment -"
"Okay, Darien is my friend but I don't want to hear about his sex life!"Andrew covered his ears and shut his eyes tightly. Lita slapped his shoulder playfully.
"Nothing like that, she started yelling! They both did!" Serena continued.
"They ruined your precious moments of drooling over Evan Lysecek didn't they?" Rei concurred snidely.
"Exactly! Wait a minute - REI!"
They all began to laugh at Serena's secret obsession now exposed. "What were they yelling over?"
"She followed me home and began with her sluttish antics in the elevator. She wasn't exactly nice to Serena here either." Darien walked in, wearing casual clothing for once. "I'm sorry she said those things about you, Serena."
Mina and Lita glanced at each other giggling slightly. Serena narrowed her eyes still visibly upset at Darien. If looks could kill, Darien would be a dead man walking. "So Sere, in other news - you sent me a text yesterday about Seiya."
"OHMYGOD! What about Seiya!" Rei chimed in, stars clearly visible in her violet eyes. She was making it very clear, anything said about Seiya she had to be let in on it. Everyone stared between her and Serena. "What?"
"You are so hopeless. He doesn't even know you!" Mina chirped.
"Actually it seems he does," Serena spoke up, Darien listened intently, Seiya obviously some kind of competition, "He said you and him met not long ago and he wanted you to design a clothing line for his international tour. He gave me his number to set up a lunch date."
The miko's mouth opened but nothing came out except a dreamy sigh before she fainted flat on her ass. "Congratulations Serena, you just made her dreams come true." Lita muttered watching the over dramatized scene.
'Well, I guess I'll give him a call and tell him."
"Wait!" Rei bolted straight up, mind full of ideas. " Just ask if we can meet up at the concert tomorrow. We can discuss the details afterwards at dinner."
That's when Darien finally realized something about this Seiya fellow; he wasn't at all interested in Serena. Nothing that Serena mentioned, happened to be about him doting over her, no compliments or anything. It seemed to him the prick known as Seiya was only using Serena to get to Rei. His blood began to boil once again. How dare that imbecile! Use his Serena?! He be damned! Serena may be a damned klutz and rash....and utterly hopeless at times but she was so fucking cute while being all those things!
'Um...Darien?" Andrew tapped the other man's shoulder, drawing attention to him since he last spoke.
"Yeah!"
"You like you're going to rip someone's head off."
"I know."
"..."
The girls just gawked, Darien didn't cool off, he just became more livid. Serena dug out her phone and began dialing Seiya's number to tell him the news. Darien knew he had to get his hands on tickets somehow but wasn't quite sure since the concert was already sold out. If he told Andrew about this discoverey, the man wouldn't dare pass up the opportunity to beat Seiya himself. Damn.
"Hey that reminds me, Andrew, we can't go." Lita nudged him. Andrew turned, looking quite livid himself, mouthing out a silent "Why". "Remember the results of the pregnancy test!" Lita rolled her eyes trying to remind herself why she married him in the first place. Darien saw his chance.
"Whoa!" Serena dropped her cell phone after hanging with Seiya.
"Did you say pregnant?"
"We're not a hundred percent sure," Andrew said matter of fact, failing to act all manly. Lita giggled, still completely surprised herself. How was it she became the probable pregnant one out of the group? They all had money it would be Rei or Mina with their sexual tendencies. "So I guess we can't go....which sucks."
"Well how about I go with the girls? Make sure this Seiya dude is legit."
"Well that makes two of us," Kunzite spoke up, "Mina almost clawed my eyes out when I told her four days ago I still hadn't gotten tickets."
Mina stuck her tongue out, squealing when Kunzite grabbed her, mashing their lips together.

"Okay so is everyone here?" Rei asked, her heart soaring out of sight while standing with Serena at the gates. They all agreed to meet here before the concert so they could find a spot for themselves. She had spotted Mina headed to the bathroom and Kunzite waiting outside. Darien, Ami and Zoicite had yet to be seen.
"I can't believe the baka is going to cost us great seats," moaned Serena.
"Chill out Serena, if all else fails we'll try getting backstage." Rei muttered watching the security guards flexing their muscles. "I bet we could take them if all else fails."
Serena didn't bother with a retort, she only shrugged as they continued their wait. Ami, Zoicite, Kunzite and Mina finally arrived, they had to wait another five minutes for Darien. Of course Serena gave him a hard time over his lateness. He ignored her taunts trying to be civil for once with her. They found decent seats - in the front around the stage, thanks to the old saying "move your foot you lose your spot" and nobody dared asked them to move.
The concert began and the crowd roared alive when Seiya and the other two took the stage, singing their first hit of the night, "I'll find you".
[A/N; Yeah okay well I don't recall any songs sung the Starlights in the final season of Sailor Moon so I'm winging it.]
The female population only fueled Darien's hatred of the supposed 'almighty' Seiya Kou. To him, Seiya looked femininely and wouldn't be surprised if he turned out to be a woman in disguise but for his friend's sake, he looked like he was enjoying himself. Mina and Serena were of course dancing, showing off their slick moves to the more upbeat songs. Rei sung as many songs as she knew. Ami only stood besides Zoicite allowing him to hold her as they enjoyed the show. Kunzite and Darein however were the complete opposite....bored out of their fucking minds.
"This is the best concert EVER!" Serena panted as they quit their little dance. Mina nodded in agreement. "Are you having fun Darien?"
"Loads."
She raised a questioning eyebrow at him, he looked sour - as always. Oh well maybe he was having loads of fun. "Hey Sere, come with me to the bathroom! I need to go PEE!" Mina shouted over the rumble of the music. Serena followed her blond friend outside of the auditorium, actually glad to finally hear something else besides booming music. "Man, those guys are hot!" Serena agreed with Mina.
"I swear tonight is going to be a wonderful night!"
Serena nodded checking her appearance in the full length mirror while Mina closed the stall door. "I hope Seiya honestly meets us after the show like he says he will. I'd like you all to meet him."
"Honey we will, don't worry and I already approve him. You need some good adult fun."
"Yeah it would nice to have a guy around to -"
"Fuck?" Mina finished her sentence slyly knowing good and well Serena wasn't talking about that at all. Serena flipped her the finger as she continued to wait. They left the bathroom and hurried back to their spots in the crowd.
Once the concert was over, Serena and her friends waited around outside in the auditorium, receiving a text from Seiya that said, "Stay in the auditorium, ok?" naturally she would do anything the boy of wonder asked her to. Darien wiped off some plastic cups from a near by seat to wait. Surely he wasn't expected to stand around? Okay maybe but none the less he wasn't.
"Hey Sere!"
Every head whipped around including Darien's head. Seiya stood on the edge of the stage with his fellow band mates smiling genuinely at the crowd. Serena walked forward as he jumped down greeting her with a friendly hug. Kunzite moved toward Darien, letting the women have their space with their idols.
"I don't like him."
"And you think I do?" Kunzite rationalized, "I don't think Zoicite likes him either." They glanced over to the haught blond who watched Ami carefully, fists clenched and ready if those boys tried anything. "Although Zoicite is protective Ami. He has legit reasons - what are yours?"
"I don't trust him."
"Uh huh - right,"
Darien turned to him, "You know why I don't."
Kunzite chuckled recalling what Darien revealed the other night. "I almost forgot about your feelings reguarding meatball head!" Darien just brushed it off turning back toward Serena.
"Seiya this is Rei Hino - one of my best friends and designer, Mina Aino, her partner in designing. And this blunette is Ami Mizuno who is still in medical school, the intelligence of our merry band!" Seiya took them all in, more importantly though Rei. He immediately sized her up first.
"Pleasure is mine," he took her hand in his and kissed her knuckles. Rei could have fainted. Darien watched the man, exactly what he thought. Seiya was after Rei, only using Serena. His body temperature rose a little more. "I assume Ms. Tsukino has informed you what business I have asked."
"Y-yes she has." Rei replied silently thanking Serena.
"Is it possible for this clothing line to be done within the month?"
Silently Mina gasped, obviously he didn't know what he was asking. That would hold up their current clothing lines, what would Leona Lewis think if her couture fashion line was put on hold? She could see the hesitation in Rei's face and prayed she didn't say yes.
"Uh well you see, Leona Lewis has a line that we've been working on for a month already and we promised to have it finished by the end of this month. We simply cannot put her off." Rei's hesitation didn't go unnoticed by Seiya the ever charming man however he nodded curtly slightly annoyed.
"I see. Well then here is my number and don't hesitate to call me when you are free of other work." Once again Seiya left without much else said. Rei noticed his supposed gentlemanly behavior, not liking it all.
"That didn't go over well,"
Serena huffed crossing her arms.
"Serena, I don't like him." Rei shuttered at the thought of talking with Seiya again.
"THANK YOU! Someone with some sense!" Darien walked forward, "I'm quite glad someone besides me doesn't like him!"
"Your just jealous, baka!" Serena fired back. Here we go.
"No Serena, I'm not. I don't know who else noticed besides me but I think that prick Seiya is using you!"
They all gawked at him, Serena especially.
"Are you trying to give yourself another black eye?" Ami nudged him, he actually hadn't thought of that.
"Well excuse me! He did offer his phone number to me -"
"He just gave it to Rei as wel!" Darien pointed out, Rei flushed realizing he was right, immediately regretting her little crush on Seiya.
"Jerk!" Serena retorted childishly.
"He is going to use you. Are you going to let him?" Darien tried again, watching her back away from him like he was the seven year itch. "Serena, he doesn't give a damn about you!"
With that Serena turned walking off. Darien hurt her feelings without saying much. But deep down she knew he was right. Seiya wanted nothing romantically to do with her. Maybe that's what hurt so damn much, he was right. Rei and Mina followed her to make sure she made it to her apartment alright.
Ami went with the others, trying to figure out to herself why Darien cared so much but she didn't speak it out aloud.
They all knew for a fact, after that little spat, Serena and Darien weren't about to talk unless forced to.
Disclaimer: Haha! Isn't my story just crazy? Serena is a bit crazed when her mind calls Darien gorgeous.
Review please!!
