Chapter 3: Serena and Stanton united
A/n: Enjoy! And please review! And remember I'm new!
Stanton hoped he wouldn't die. He had never gotten to tell Serena sorry for all the pain he cause and to say sorry, but he realized he wasn't in pain, he was cold but not in pain, and then he was propelled out of the fire, mortal again. He ran away as fast as his legs could take him and ran into Serena's brother on his way to the beach to surf, and he noticed Serena following a little ways behind. He tried to catch up to her. Serena felt something grab her shoulder. She whirled around and her breath caught. "Stanton are you following me or something?" Stanton smiled wryly "no this was pure luck, anyway I need to talk to you." Serena looked at him in the eyes and noticed her moon amulet was fine and that his eyes weren't yellow. There was something different about Stanton, so she called to her brother Collin "Hey Collin I just met a friend from school and we need to go and talk, catch up with ya later!" and then she walked off with Stanton and Collin staring after them in shock. "So what did you need to talk to me about that couldn't wait?" "Not here, we're not safe, there's a big gang of followers headed by Zahi a little more down the beach." Serena visibly gulped, she didn't know if she could take on Zahi so when Stanton started leaving she followed. Stanton looked at her and then blushed and looked away. "There's been a change in events." Stanton finally managed to get out. "What do you mean?" "I mean that I am no longer a follower. They saw me with you and saw that I love you, and saw it as treason and threw me into the fire, I am mortal now." Serena shuddered, she had experience with this cold fire and it hadn't been fun. Stanton wrapped her in his jacket when he noticed her shuddering. Serena looked at her amulet as if to check for verification that Stanton was telling her the truth, it was silver and shimmery, it was fine. Serena didn't even know why she had doubted it, Stanton after all did really love her, and had warned her and saved her from Zahi a number of times, and had been really sweet. Serena finally admitted to herself that she did love Stanton as he loved her. And Stanton saw it in her eyes and mind. He hadn't lost his powers. Vanessa was talking animatedly about her latest date with Michael when she caught Serena walking into the coffee shop. Vanessa's breath caught and she pointed to her motioning for Catty to look, then Jimena came in and Vanessa took in another sharp breath. It wasn't that they were in the coffee shop or what they were wearing that made Vanessa gasp it was who they were with. Serena was hand in hand with Stanton! And Jimena was hand in hand with Serena's brother Collin! Vanessa and Catty shook their heads failing to believe this was real, when that didn't work they walked up to Serena and Jimena who were staring at each other in shock and Stanton and Collin who were blushing a deep red. Stanton was visibly flinching as he saw his once arch rivals all together. Serena noticed everyone looking at Stanton ready to battle him and quickly stepped in front of him. "It's okay, Stanton's mortal now, long story, and he's my boyfriend. He's okay." Then she shot a look at Jimena as if daring her to explain her date. Jimena caught the look and cleared her throat. "Well uh, Collin asked me out and then asked if I wanted to get a cup of coffee with him and I said yes."
