Secret plots:

"Well, they're asleep," Andrew announced.

"Well, can't we go to sleep now? I need to study in the morning," Amy said.

"No, we can't. We need to figure out how all of this will go. Once they profess their undying love for each other, how and when are we going to let them out? They might be stuck in there all summer! And I'll get no time at the beach."

"I say we play poker."

"Be quiet, Raye."

"What? I love poker."

"Yeah, especially when we're betting chocolate and ice cream," Mina answered, licking her lips."

"Gross!!! You are acting like Serena."

"Well, why don't we play poker? I want a midnight snack, anyway."

"Andrew," Mina said sweetly, and batted her eyes.

Andrew backed away and said, "I wont have any for the customers by tomorrow if you eat it all."

"Oh, you know five teenagers can't eat twelve tons of ice cream in one night."

"In one night, no. But it all depends on how long we're in here for."

"Please, please, please??"

"Oh....alright. Go get one."

"Chocolate, everyone?"

"Chocolate mint chip."

"Strawberry."

"Vanilla."

"Rocky road."

"Hold up! Two per night."

"TWO PER NIGHT?!?!"

"SHHHHHHH!! We don't want to wake them up."

A few minutes later, Lita came back carrying two tubs of ice cream. Raye was finishing up dealing out the cards, and Mina had set up the lantern. All of the lights were out in the arcade, except for the lantern.

There was a strange shadow on the wall. It looked sort of like a dog, maybe a rabbit.

"ANDREW! Stop making shadow puppets and scoop out the ice cream."

"I do that every day. YOU get the ice cream while I make the puppets."

Lita sighed and scooped out the frozen goodies.

They played a few hands of poker, until Amy said, "Shouldn't we be figuring out what to do about Serena and Darien?"

"That's right! Are we going to do it gently, or forcefully."

"I say let time take its course."

"I second that. We need to leave them alone, so that they can kill each other or slobber all over the floor."

"You guys are so stupid."


Deep thoughts:

The night went on for hours. Darien had been awake for a long time. He had been woken to the noise Andrew was making for the shadow puppets. The pig was rather good. It sounded just like him.

Darien sat up in his sleeping bag, and tried to hear what they were saying. But the heat had come on, and the noise the heater was making didn't help his situation.

(Here it comes. The most annoying part of all moonie fanfics. Darien's real thoughts about Serena.)

How did he ever get himself into this situation? It was all Andrew of course. He must have planned this. And those people Serena hangs out with, they must have had a hand in it too. Even Amy!

Who was he fooling? It was all himself. If he had never told Andrew how he felt, then he wouldn't be in this mess...Hold up! He never did tell Andrew! Then how did he find out?? That little sneak! I'mna kill him if I ever get out of here.

I turned on the flashlight, but put it on the floor, light up so that they wouldn't find out he was awake.

He looked over at the sleeping bag in his face. There was a lump of foot close too it, so he rolled back over and tried to read. But it was impossible. He kept thinking about Serena. What was so great about her anyway?

Well, for one, she was a GORGEOUS girl. A little silly, but very nice. When she wasn't beating him over the head, that is. And it was true, he did provoke her. It wasn't all his fault though. She faught back, and sometimes it seemed as if she enjoyed it. It would be rather interesting to see what happened over the next few days.

His mind turned to his book and back to Serena. Why couldn't he get his mind off of her?? If he could admit to himself that she was gorgeous, and sort of nice, had bad grades, and captured him with every look, then maybe he could stop thinking about her. Maybe he was falling into the trap; the trap of love. He told himself that it would never work out. How many times had he thought that? Countless. But he had also told himself, that one day he would make it workk out. It was his own choices that affected everything. Oh, and Serena's too.
But then, she hated him! Maybe he should be nicer to her. The thought had never occured to him that he was mean to her. He just teased her. It was fun to see her angry. He told himself that it would be worth it, just to try and be nice. Then maybe she would start being friends with him. And then maybe he'd have a chance!

But he was getting too far ahead of himself. All he had to do was be nice. Be nice. That's the last thing he thought of before he went to sleep. Be nice.
