CHAPTER THREE: THE BALL *PART ONE*
Duo and his parents climbed into the coach as the screams of over excited girls could be heard.
Duo sighed and thought, 'It's tough being me.'
"Now, son, I want you to be on your best behavior because today is Queen Selenity's birthday," his mother ordered.
"Yes mother," he replied as he looked at the landscape passing by.
(*) (*) (*)
Princess Serenity looked at her reflection with a serious look as Luna (human form) ran a brush along the golden strands of hair.
"Serenity-hime, I'm very proud that you're growing up," Luna said with a smile.
Serenity breathed in and replied, "Yes, I know. I just hope that mother will be proud too."
Luna stopped and looked at Serenity's eyes in the mirror and said, "Of course she'll be proud. She's your mother. She'll be proud of whatever you do."
Serenity nodded as Luna continued, "Now let's put on a smile for today's Selenity-sama's birthday."
Serenity nodded, got up and walked proudly towards the ballroom.
(*) (*) (*)
Duo stood there in the ball room as girls from noble families and royal families were starting polite conversations with him as he tried to reply to each one for each were equally beautiful.
"Duo, what do you think party about this party so far?"
Duo looked up to see his friends in front of him with a smile. Maybe not Wufei, Heero or Trowa, but Quartre was smiling.
"Hey guys!" he greeted as the girls looked at the five boys.
"Duo," Heero replied simply with a nod.
With a few more greetings Quartre asked, "Have you chosen your girl yet?"
"Nope, not yet," Duo said as he shook his head, "What about you guys?"
Hnns were heard and a no was said from Quartre.
"Oh," Duo said as Princess Serenity came down the stairs unnoticed.
Serenity walked towards her friends when a crowd came to complement her.
"How do you feel about this ball Serenity-hime?" a person asked as Usagi quickly replied confidently, "It's going quite well."
Nods quickly spread like a wave in the crowd as Serenity walked a little faster to get away from the crowd, but was met with another crowd. By now Serenity knew her duty was to talk to crowds in order to communicate with her subjects better. So she met each crowd with a smile.
Duo looked at the crowded spot in the ballroom and thought, 'I pity that person in the middle of the crowd.' He knew that feeling of being crowded by many girls yet they never understand him. They might know him but he probably didn't know even the half of them.
With a soft smile Duo told his friends, "Guys, I'm going to get some fresh air."
The guys nodded and decided to go their own ways as eight girls stood at the sideline with a smile as they stared at their crowded friend.
"I think Serenity-hime needs help," Hotaru indicated as she pointed unnoticeably at the large crowd of people.
Makoto smiled, "I think so too."
"Should we help her?" Ami asked as she stared with wide eyes at the increasing crowd.
"Well, maybe we should," Minako supposed as she nodded slightly.
Rei then spoke with a simrk, "But she has her duties."
Michiru rubbed her temples and sighed out, "Guys that's not the point."
"What's the point?" Hakura asked in an amused voice as she watched her hime talking to the crowd maturely, "I think this will help her become queen."
Ami sighed loudly and spoke out, "The question was should we help her?"
The girls, except Michiru, looked at each other and replied in sync, "No."
Ami and Michiru gave off another sigh as the inners went their own way.
(*) (*) (*)
With a sigh Ami took a glass of wine from the table and sipped on it.
"Onnas shouldn't be drinking too much," a voice snorted.
Her lips drew away from the cool glass and looked at the Chinese, "Well... I don't drink much."
He shook his head as he too took a glass of wine. After a sip or two he said, "I doesn't matter onnas just shouldn't drink."
"Why?" Ami asked as she quirked an eyebrow upward. Specks of anger grazed her usually calm emotions.
He made eye contact with her and said, "Cause they act immaturely when they get drunk."
"You think ALL girls get drunk easily?" anger grazed along those words as if challenging him.
"What? You think you can take drinking?" he asked, amused.
"Sure... I guess," doubt began to rise in her sudden anger.
Now he was interested and challenged, "I'll challenge you to a drinking contest."
Ami froze then as she pictured what Makoto would of said, "Ami, don't let a guy get to you!" This pushed Ami to the edge as she said with determination, "Fine."
He nodded and drank the rest of the wine from his glass. Ami lick her suddenly dry lips and quickly lifted her glass and drank contently. She then coughed from the abrupt strong taste in her system.
Wufei smirked. He liked this girl, indeed he did.
(*) (*) (*)
Minako strolled in the gardens silently as the scent of the blooming flowers caressed her inner essence. She stopped when she spotted a boy looking at the red roses with a serene look.
With a smile she said, "Hello."
The boy snapped out of his little world and looked at her. With a pause of silence he replied, "Hello."
She grinned and immediately responded, "Do you like roses?"
"Oh, yes. Especially red roses," he replied as he stole a look at the roses and then back to her.
"Red roses. The message of love," Minako informed.
The boy blushed as an emotion struck his heart dead center.
"Do you have a girl friend?" she asked shyly.
"Well...um... no I don't," he flustered as a very unfamiliar feeling roamed inside his heart, "Do you like red roses?"
Minako smiled serenely and replied, "Yes because they stand for love."
"Love?" the boy asked.
"Yes," she smiled, "I hope that someday my prince would come for me," she them hugged herself as the boy stared at her admirably, "with a bouquet of red roses for me."
He could only nod as she continued, "Then he would hand the roses to me."
The boy's eyes followed her as she started to walk around while telling her dreams to him, "Then we would embrace in a blissful kiss."
"That's your dream?" he asked.
She nodded.
Quartre smiled as they started to talk non-stop.
(*) (*) (*)
Makoto looked up at the starry night sky as she gripped the rail tightly as she remembered how Ken dumped her for another girl just two days ago. Her friends tried to cheer her up and it worked for about a day or two. No one knows the pain with in her mind every time she sees a couple.
She sighed as a boy walked up to the balcony silently and looked at the landscape where you could see Minako and Quartre talking.
Emotional pain seared through her as she frowned.
"Why are you sad?" came the silent question.
Makoto knew it was the boy beside her as she replied, "Because."
"It's not healthy to keep things inside," he said, trying to communicate with her. He'd never seen any girl like her with pain inflected in her eyes and such a straight expression shone on her face.
"I know," she stated as her sphere of sadness cracked vaguely.
"If you know then tell some one," he suggested as his line of vision moved from Quartre and onto her.
"I can't," she said faintly.
"Why?" he asked simply. He wanted to dig deeper as he felt that sphere's crack go deeper.
"No one understands me," she said as the sphere was chipped bit by bit.
"Just tell me and I'll tell you what I think of it," he said as he stared unblinkingly at her.
There was silence before she finally gave in and spoke to him, "My boyfriend dumped me two days ago."
The boy nodded slowly as she continued, "My friends tried helping me but I still hurt every time I see a couple embrace or kiss or even smile at each other," she then placed a hand over her hand as the sphere tarred apart, "My heart is now in unbearable pain because I can't forget about him."
He then looked at the sky as he listened to her sadness, "I miss him." Tears escaped her eyes as the sphere slowly crumbled.
"I miss him a lot," she finished with a whisper as the sphere collapsed. With a sniff she wiped the tears away and said softly, "Thanks for listening to me."
Trowa nodded as he quickly, yet expertly, changed the subject.
END! PLEASE R/R AND TELL ME WHO 'HER' SHOULD BE. PLEASE I REALLY NEED THIS SUGGESTION.
