Angel: Can you believe it? I'm finally going to update!

Sage: Really, that's amazing.

Angel: It really is. I'm gonna update ALL my fics!

Sage: Lords help me! I have to work overtime.

Okay, this is annoying me. Stupid ff.net won't fix the chapters that the actually chapter seven is up. I'm praying this will work! Pray with me! *sigh*





Serena's breath caught in her throat. "It's like a fairy tale castle."

Seiya laughed and led her up the steps. "It is sorta pretty."

"Oh yes." She sighed.

"I must agree." Amy let Taiki lead her towards the doors. This place was so romantic, she wanted to dance outside on one of the balconies with Taiki and. kiss him at midnight. Amy blushed. 'Where'd that though come from?'

Serena smiled at her friend's blush, 'she must be thinking about the night ahead of us. So romantic. This is like one of the places Darien and I..' She sighed and turned to look at Seiya. 'No use thinking of that.'

Hotaru watched the two couples go up, arm in arm, smile to smile. They were so lucky. Yaten stood behind her. He could feel the sadness she held in her heart. She was lonely.like him.

He took her arm and pulled her with him. A small gasp escaped Hotaru's lips as Yaten led her forward. "What are you doing?" She whispered.

"Taking you inside." He gave her a smirk.

Hotaru blushed; this was weird. He was acting weird.

*******************************************************************

Inside was just as grand as outside. Music filled the air; food was spread in grand diversity on tables; people danced, talked, laughed, having a wondrous time. Candles gave the place a romantic view, making Hotaru feel light headed. "This is so grand." She smiled.

"It is nice." Yaten could feel the romance surround him. 'Earth girls.' He thought looking down at the people below him. 'Their so fluttery and.. Blonde.' He sighed. 'Tonight is going to be boring.'

A small giggle from beside him brought his attention to Hotaru. The little girl was. No. She wasn't a little girl; she was a woman, a very beautiful one.

He looked at her, for the first time, he really looked. Soft creamy skin, silky ebony hair, twilight colored eyes that could capture a man, full lips that were made for kissing, curves in all the right places, a perfect height, gods she was.

Yaten felt himself blush. 'This isn't like me. God! This is Hotaru. The little Outer scout, the one that was friends with Chibi-chibi; the kid that looked at us like we.. Shit don't go there. She was raised by Haruka and the other Outers! She's from Earth! She's. my god I actually like her like that!'

Hotaru turned to look at him. He was staring at her. "Yaten?" he blinked.

"Oh Taru I was just."

Hotaru blushed. "Did you just call me Taru?"

Yaten shook his head, trying to clear it. "I. Yes I think I did. Whatever. Let's go down." He rolled his eyes. "It's better to get this over with."

Hotaru sighed. 'Well Ten-chan, maybe I can get you to look at me.'

************************************************************

Seiya looked down at Serena, his beautiful muffin head. 'I can finally hold her.' He smiled. She glanced up at him.

"So Seiya, what's expected of us tonight?"

"Talk a bit about the movie, gab with some of the big stars and people."

"Stars? You mean some other actors will be here?" She felt her eyes widen.

"Ya, some."

Serena ran a hand through her hair. This was going to be a big deal. People were here to see her and her friends because of a movie they were staring in.

Gods, it hadn't really sunk in till now. She was staring in a movie. A real live movie. Mina was going to kill her when she got back.

It was weird. They started down the large staircase and people turned to greet them. Countless people. Serena felt her head spin. How was she going to survive? She felt Seiya's hand rest on her shoulder and looked up at him.

"I'm scared."

"I can tell." He smiled. "Don't worry. Just be yourself."

*********************************************************************

Amy hadn't realized how many people were going to be there. "Two hundred at least." She said breathlessly.

"At least." Taiki chuckled. "There always is, sometimes more."

"More?" She squeaked.

"There's thousands at concerts."

"Thousands?" She felt her heart leap into her throat. "There won't be anymore here tonight, right?"

"There will be."

"Help me." She murmured.

"Don't worry."

"Why not?"

"They'll love you."

Amy blushed. He'd just given her a huge compliment, and accepted her as part of his world.

***************************************************************

"Yaten?"

"Hm?" He glanced at Hotaru.

"Um.. There's some girls over there giving me evil looks." She replied nervously.

He looked to where she was glancing then rolled his eyes. "They're fans."

"Uh huh?"

"Don't pay them mind, they idolize anyone that's popular at the minute. Once one of goes over and signs an autograph they'll squeal and run to tell all their friends."

Hotaru sighed. "I hope so."
