(None as good as Sailor Moon in my opinion but I enjoy them anyway!) Sailor moon also belongs to a lot of big and powerful companies. So please please nobody sue me for anything I forgot to write. But please know this story does belong to me and I would like credit for it in the amazing event someone would like to use it for any possible reason. So EMAIL ME for permission for its use.

Chapter 3: Plan B *note: words in parenthesis are most often someone's thoughts. If I change POV, or where the story is coming from, the name of the POV will be surrounded by these - ~~. So example being ~Serena~ or ~Crown Game Arcade~. Got it? Good!
Serena sat dejectedly in her desk, smack dab in the middle of her classroom. The blonde beauty sighed, After all the measures she had taken to avoid this she had come to have to do it anyway. If only she hadn't run into that jerk in the middle of the street she wouldn't have detention this afternoon and she wouldn't have to pull the stunt that she was about to! (Damn that jerk) Serena thought viscously. She really didn't want to hurt her teacher Mrs. Haruna but this was a matter of vacation and guys! Serena sighed, she really didn't have a choice: if she didn't do this she would miss getting her ticket and spending a week with Andrew! She really couldn't let it happen. She just prayed that her idea would work.
When the end of the day came and the students had left {Molly had given Serena a pat on the back before she left for friendly support} Serena reported to room 113. Walking in Mrs. Haruna placed a stack of papers on her desk and simply stated. "I trust you know what to do?"
"Yes Miss. Haruna." Serena bent down her head and attempted to make herself appear busy with her work while Miss. Haruna took a seat at the head of the class. (Sorry Miss. Haruna) Serena thought (but this is a case of the utmost emergency!) With that thought in mind Serena put into action the plan she had been scheming up since the first time she had heard about the contest.
"Ms. H!"
" Hmm? What is it Tsukino?"
"I have to use the bathroom!"
"Do your work Tsukino."
"Ms. H I really gotta go!" the urgency in Serena's voice definintly wasn't faked; if this part of the plan didn't work the whole thing went plooey!
Miss H sighed, "How bad Serena?" she asked.
"Really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really..."
"That's enough Tsukino! Just go! You have 5 minutes! If your not back in that time limit...detention for a week!" the auburn haired teacher slammed down the book she had been reading. (A romance.) Serena noted. (Perfect! That must mean she's not over her boyfriend yet!)
Serena stood up and walked past a few other detentionees to the door, she opened it and escaped to the hallway. She walked quickly to her destination, thinking to herself...(If I wasn't the angel of Love that I am this would actually be difficult.) she thought. Serena knew instinctively somehow the way that most people's hearts worked. She knew Miss Haruna was still hung up over that Paul guy, even though it had been over a week since she had broke down crying in class over him. Serena hated having to use this to trick her teacher but she really, really had to. Stopping by the bathroom Serena picked up the red roses she had hidden there. Feeling a little nervous she checked the card again to see if it was believable.
It read...
My dear lovely Haruna,
I know we've had our differences but I can't live with out you! Please meet me at the Café' Maria at 4:00 (A.N.- ok so I don't know what time school ends in Japan!) Please don't keep me waiting my love!
Your eternal lover,
Peter
The letter was typed and perfumed and she had bought it yesterday for $1.00, the roses would have cost a fortune if Melvin hadn't given them to her. (Ahh I am genius!) She told herself as she grabbed the flowers and headed out the door.
Upon entering the Main office she walked straight to the shriveled old lady behind the counter.
"Mrs. Bean-wacker?" Serena said trying to look innocent while trying to catch the old woman's attention. The great grandma swung around faster than a rocket and spat out, "Can't you Damn kids get my name right!!!?? What is SO hard about remembering Beanwalker!?? God I gotta get a divorce!!" with spit flying everywhere from the almost toothless mouth, Serena tried her best to keep a straight face.
"Uhh yeah...Mrs. Beanwalker? See there was this guy out there who gave me these roses and..."
"Gimme those!" the woman shouted ripping the flowers from Serena's grasp...
(Jeez lady you mind leaving me my arms?)
"Lets see...hmmm...My dear lovely Haruna, I know we've had our differences..." the old woman continued to read the card. Every one knew that Mrs. Bean-wacker (Serena thought it a more appropriate name) was the nosiest woman when it came to romance and other peoples business.
"Damn!" the old woman cursed, "I told that woman to stay away from him." She grabbed the P.A. system mike. "MS. Haruna!" cackled the witch emphasizing the miss. There's a bunch of roses up here in the main office. Now...MISS Haruna how many times have I told you that Peter was a slime ball? I told you them thugs wasn't..." "Roses from PETER!?" Miss. Haruna shrieked back. "Yeah and he wants you to meet him at the Café' Maria at 4:00..." Serena noticed the P.A. system switched to turn on every P.A. box in the school. (Poor Haruna,) Serena mused (every girl and teacher in the school's gonna want to know what happened when she gets to that cafe'! Wait till she find out she's been stood up!...poor Haruna she really doesn't deserve this)
"I'll be right there!" screamed a voice over the P.A. Serena could just imagine the pretty red head powdering up her nose right now... "Alright class you heard me! SCRAM! I got a date to get too!" Haruna yelped gleefully. (YES! I DID IT!) Serena thanked Mrs.Bean-wacker...(THAT'S BEAN_WALKER!!!! DAMN YOU KIDS!! ^-^) And left skipping, down the hallway and out into the bright sunlight. Romance and Love here I come!! She screamed happily
Miss Haruna~
She looked in the mirror once more before she said, "you've still got it Patricia Haruna you old fox! There is still no man who can resist your beautiful mind and bod!" She giggled like a school-girl before she walked out of the bathroom and sat at her table, waiting for her prince charming to walk in. 3 minutes past four, then 5 then 10. Haruna felt like crying, Paul was THE most punctual man in the world and any time he was late then a person knew he wasn't coming. The bell over the door chimed and Haruna floored a waiter as she flung her arms around to look at the door for Paul. "Uhg. Only Melvin!?" Patricia sunk back down in her seat with her head in her hands. (Can't that boy get a life? Doesn't he have anything better to do than find gossip about me?) Water came to the broken girls eyes. (Wait till everyone finds out about this, go ahead Melvin observe! Have your fill; I'm sure you won't miss a single detail with those glasses of yours!) Miss Haruna sat up, surprised at her own thoughts. "What am I saying? Picking on Melvin like that! It isn't his fault that I'm...I'm...I'm an Old Maid!!" She definintly broke down crying at this. She broke down and wept into her own arms, "How could he do this to me!? Why would he do this to me? Oh Paul why won't you love me!!" with tears flowing freely, she got up to leave and made a dash for the door. Melvin saw her jolt and quickly grabbed hold of her.
"Haruna- sensei! What is the matter?" he asked, full of concern for his beloved teacher. "Haruna lifted her fiery hair to her 2nd best pupil. (Ami Mizuno being the first) Ms. Haruna sighed and saw know point in hiding the truth, she knew he would find out somehow or other, he always did. Haruna had suspected more than once that this boy with coke bottle glasses could somehow read minds when it came to juicy gossip. "My boyfriend stood me up Melvin." She whispered, "Can I go now?"
"Stood you up aye?" said Melvin adjusting his glasses, well personally Haruna-sensei I don't think there's any man worthy enough for you!" "Thank you Melvin that's nice, but I really must go." (Suck-up) she thought. "Actually Miss. Haruna if you really think you want a boyfriend you should try that new contest going on down the street! Here!" he said in his squeaky voice, handing her a flyer. "I won this off the Internet. It has all the information about the contest on it." Ms. Haruna took the flyer and glanced at it... "6 guys, 6 girls age 14 and up...beach...pairs...cruise...moonlight...romance?" she sighed "Sounds like something for attractive, younger girls, like for that Serena Tsukino, no doubt she would like that type of thing." A thought struck Haruna and she looked quickly from the floor to her captor. " Hey Melvin, why aren't you over there right now, if you went through the trouble of just winning its poster?" she questioned. "Melvin looked at his teacher with a flushed face. "Well actually," he answered shyly, " there's only one girl I would want to go with, but she wouldn't go with me if I asked her, besides it's a drawing type contest. It wouldn't be guarantied that we would be paired together and even if we were, pairs only stay together until Wednesday after that they can do as they wished, and go with whomever or do what ever. I'd never see her past Wednesday and I'd be alone so I'm not over there." Haruna blinked at the boy. "YOU have a crush??!!! On who? On Who? Tell me! Tell me!" Haruna grabbed the boy's collar and shook with all her might. Melvin struggled to keep his glasses on while he cried out "O.K. O.K! O.K!! It's Serena Tsukino but she's already over there!" Patricia immediately stopped shaking the poor boy, a sour expression on her face. "S- S-S -Sereeena Tsu-Tsu-Tsukino!? But why!?" "I don't know" blushed the boy, "She's just so radiant, like the start up page of my computer! In depth and sometimes incomprehensible like my windows programming! Beautiful beyond even the comprehension of my super computer! Her personality even more kawaii than my..." "Hold it right there!" Haruna interrupted him. "Did you just say that Serena was already at that contest?" "Uh no...I said that she was as radiant as..." "Don't you lie to me! You know what I meant tell me right NOOOOOOWWWWW!" Haruna shook the nerd violently. (A.N.- my, my.... some teachers man! ^-^) "Yes! Yes!" the poor little guy screeched "she's already over there! Haruna-San I can't breathe!!" Haruna dropped the boy and he fell to the floor. She put her hand to her chin and thought----very hard. (But we're 10 minutes from the school!) She reasoned, (if she's been over there since the last time Melvin was there then she must have left to be there the same time I left to be here. And that means she knew exactly were she was going to try to be since before today! She couldn't have found out this morning because she slept in again! That would give her reason for her unusual resistance to the detention I assigned,
*Flash back *
"But, But! Miss. H!"
"No buts Serena or double detention!"
"But!"
"Fine! It's doubled! I'll tell your parents not to expect you until late!"
"But!"
"SERENA SIT DOWN NOW!"
*End Flashback *
And if I know Serena this type of thing would be important enough to have a back up plan incase the inevitable detention did happen! Which, since the contest began right after school, detention would cause her to miss the drawing happening as soon as school got out!) And then it struck her. (Serena took her bags with her when she went out to use the bathroom! why would she do that if she didn't know she was going to leave soon! And that card! She ran over to the table where she and her flowers had been sitting. Typed!?) She gasped (Paul had never sent her a typed card when he had sent her flowers before!) Melvin came over to the table cautiously to check on the teacher he thought had snapped and gone nuts, he moved his eyes warily from the white knuckles gripping the table up to her ice cold, and yet fiery gaze. Following that gaze he looked startled upon the flowers that stood in the center of his teacher's stare. "uhhhh...Haruna -san" Melvin addressed his teacher with his fear forgotten, replaced with puzzlement. "Why do you have the flowers I sent Serena?" He watched as a furious fire let out in his teachers' eyes. She grabbed his wrist and pulled him out the door of the café'. (So she thinks she can just play with my heart for the sake of her silly self does she? I'll show her not to mess with THIS woman's' emotions! And I thought she really cared about others!) "So you want to go with Serena do you Melvin? And she can't stand the sight of you?" She asked looking down at him. Melvin nodded as best he could while being helplessly dragged along. "Well thank me boy cause now you're getting your god damn wish! If I have to pay off every damn person affiliated with this damned contest Serena will have you as her partner! She can count on it!
~Game crown arcade~~
1 hour before contest time-
"Come on Dare you gotta go! This ticket cost me my last $120! You can't just -not- take it!" A gorgeous college boy answered back.
"I can and I won't! You know I don't like these types of things! They're just stupid. There's gotta be some sort of rip off. For the last time I'm not going!" "Come on Darien! You need to get out and meet someone! I'm tired of seeing you alone all the time it's not healthy! Take the ticket and turn It in damn it I already paid to be sure you were one of the winners!" Darien spat out the soda he was drinking and stood up with his hands on the counter. "You did WHAT?" Andrew tried not to smile. "I paid the guys off. It was a lot cheaper than I thought too. So even if you aren't there they're going to call out your name to go." He let his smile come out when his friend sat down with his head in his hands. He sighed 'Come on Darien you NEED to meet somebody! Stop turning down every girl that comes your way, don't let a few bad experiences ruin your life!" the dark hair man felt like he'd been hit by a train, "A few bad experiences? A FEW BAD EXPERIENCES!? What do you mean a few bad experiences!?" he yelled. Andrew tried to calm his friend, "Darien you know I didn't mean it that way come on! You know I wouldn't do that to you man!" he watched relieved as his friend relaxed. 'Sorry An." Darien whispered going back to his cola
. "Just a little moody today are we Mr. Chiba?" Andrew asked lightly, " And quit calling me An! I'm not a girl!" "Darien smiled up at his friend, "Prove it girly man." He teased. "Why you!" Andrew cried playfully reaching for Darien's jacket. Darien quickly bounced out of reach and headed for the door. "Hey where are you going?" Andrew called, "Becoming a little chicken are we? Come and face me like a man!" "Nope!" Darien called back, 'I don't fight girls!" he laughed at his best friends sour expression and continued. "And if I'm gonna make it to that drawing on time, I'd better go!" "Good man Darien! I knew you'd go! See ya later!" Andrew yelled through the closing, sliding doors.
"Why did you say that you goof? Now you really have to go." Darien sighed and walked on, he knew he'd never hear the end of it from Andrew if he didn't go, and to tell the truth he really could use a vacation. Those weird dreams he'd been having about some angelic princess were really getting to him, and he hadn't had a good nights sleep in a good long while. "Maybe this really isn't such a bad idea." Darien thought as he directed his feet to where the contest would be held. "And who knows! Maybe the love of my life or the princess will be there just waiting for me with open arms!" He shook his head at his own meandering thoughts and kept moving. "Love," Darien muttered "is something I have and can live with out."
And so he walked on, listening to all three his heart, mind and his body tell him he was the biggest liar on earth...
***End of chapter 3 stay tuned for chapter 4! Contest results~***

Serena sat dejectedly in her desk, smack dab in the middle of her classroom. The blonde beauty sighed, After all the measures she had taken to avoid this she had come to have to do it anyway. If only she hadn't run into that jerk in the middle of the street she wouldn't have detention this afternoon and she wouldn't have to pull the stunt that she was about to!

You need to get out and meet someone! I'm tired of seeing you alone all the time it's not healthy! Take the ticket and turn It in damn it I already paid to be sure you were one of the winners!" Darien spat out the soda he was drinking and stood up with his hands on the counter. "You did WHAT?" Andrew tried not to smile. "I paid the guys off. It was a lot cheaper than I thought too. So even if you aren't there they're going to call out your name to go." He let his smile come out when his friend sat down with his head in his hands. He sighed 'Come on Darien you NEED to meet somebody! Stop turning down every girl that comes your way, don't let a few bad experiences ruin your life!" the dark hair man felt like he'd been hit by a train, "A few bad experiences? A FEW BAD EXPERIENCES!? What do you mean a few bad experiences!?" he yelled. Andrew tried to calm his friend, "Darien you know I didn't mean it that way come on! You know I wouldn't do that to you man!" he watched relieved as his friend relaxed. 'Sorry An." Darien whispered going back to his cola
. "Just a little moody today are we Mr. Chiba?" Andrew asked lightly, " And quit calling me An! I'm not a girl!" "Darien smiled up at his friend, "Prove it girly man." He teased. "Why you!" Andrew cried playfully reaching for Darien's jacket. Darien quickly bounced out of reach and headed for the door. "Hey where are you going?" Andrew called, "Becoming a little chicken are we? Come and face me like a man!" "Nope!" Darien called back, 'I don't fight girls!" he laughed at his best friends sour expression and continued. "And if I'm gonna make it to that drawing on time, I'd better go!" "Good man Darien! I knew you'd go! See ya later!" Andrew yelled through the closing, sliding doors.
"Why did you say that you goof? Now you really have to go." Darien sighed and walked on, he knew he'd never hear the end of it from Andrew if he didn't go, and to tell the truth he really could use a vacation. Those weird dreams he'd been having about some angelic princess were really getting to him, and he hadn't had a good nights sleep in a good long while. "Maybe this really isn't such a bad idea." Darien thought as he directed his feet to where the contest would be held. "And who knows! Maybe the love of my life or the princess will be there just waiting for me with open arms!" He shook his head at his own meandering thoughts and kept moving. "Love," Darien muttered "is something I have and can live with out."
And so he walked on, listening to all three his heart, mind and his body tell him he was the biggest liar on earth...
***End of chapter 3 stay tuned for chapter 4! Contest results~***
