A New Love? By Small-Lady19

Disclaimers: I still don't own Sailor Moon

Chapter 2

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

She knew that she should go to school, but she was in no mood to go there today. She just kept running and before she knew it. She was right in front of the Crown Arcade. She didn't really know why she was there, but she figured that a chocolate milkshake and a little Sailor V might cheer her up. She wiped away the tears as she plastered on a fake smile and walked into the Arcade.

Andrew heard the doors open and looked up to see Serena walk in. 'That's strange' he thought to himself, 'she should be in school today.' He was determined to find out why she wasn't there.

"Hey Serena!"

"Hi Andrew, can I have a chocolate milkshake please."

"Sure thing." he replied as he went to go make her the milkshake.

A few minutes later, he returned with the milkshake. It wasn't busy because all of his customers were in school so he decided to sit down beside her and try to figure out what was wrong.

"Serena. Why aren't you at school?"

At the mention of school, she remembered why she wasn't there and was here sitting with Andrew instead. She broke down and cried.

"Oh Andrew...."

Andrew wasn't sure what was wrong, but he did the first thing that he could think of. He pulled her into a hug and let her cry on his shoulder. The two of them stayed that way for a while. He knew that Darien would be coming in soon, so whatever it was that was bothering Serena, hopefully Darien could fix it.

"Serena, Darien should...." but he was cut off by Serena's sobs as she started to cry harder.

~~~~~~~~~~~Outside of the Arcade~~~~~~~~~~~

From outside of the Arcade, Darien could see Serena crying while Andrew was trying his best to soothe her. He felt as though he shouldn't go in knowing that it would only upset her more. Remembering Serena's words earlier, "I hate you Darien Shields! I never want to see your face ever again!", Darien turned around and left.

~~~~~~~~~~Back Inside~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

After about 15-20 minutes, Andrew had successfully calmed Serena down.

"Serena. Do you want to tell me what happened that got you this upset?" Andrew asked her calmly.

All she could do at the moment was nod her head.

"Take your time Serena"

"Darien.... he broke up with me this morning." she said in between sniffles.

Andrew was shocked by this. He knew how much those two loved each other, so he wondered what has happened to cause this change of heart.

"Serena do you know why?"

Serena just shook her head.

"Serena, you should go home and rest. I'll try to get a hold of Darien to see what happened.

I'll call you later tonight to let you know what I found out ok?" Andrew suggested.

"Thanks Drew, you're the best," stated a now happier Serena as she got up and left the Arcade.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Later that day~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Do you want to tell me what the hell happened between the two of you?!" Andrew screamed at Darien later on that day.

"Andrew man, I know you're just looking out for Serena, but I can't tell you what happened."

Darien replied. He knew that if he told Andrew the truth, Serena would surely find out the truth also.

"Why the hell not?!"

Darien could clearly see that Andrew was getting really frustrated at the lack of information that he was giving, so he decided to leave.

"Just because. Do me a favour though. Watch over her for me." With that said, Darien left the Arcade.

'I know that you still care for her, so why are you doing this?' Andrew thought to himself.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~In Serena's Room~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Serena was sitting all alone in her room when she saw her bedroom door open. All the girls were there and the walked in.

"Hey girl" Mina said.

Serena just sat there as the girls came closer to her.

"Serena, are you sick? Why didn't you come to school today?" Amy asked.

Once again, Serena just sat there. The girls knew that something was seriously wrong, but they just weren't sure what it was.

"Ya girl, you know that you can tell us anything." Lita chimed.

Serena opened her mouth to start to tell them what happened, but all that she could do was cry. Seeing this, Raye took the opportunity to climb on Serena's bed with her and gave her a big hug. After she calmed down, Serena was able to finally tell the girls what had happened. Before anyone could ask any questions, the phone started ringing. Seeing that she was making no attempt to pick up the phone, Lita picked it up.

"Hello" Lita asked. "Oh ok, she's right here, just hang on a moment."

"Serena, it's Andrew." Lita said as she handed the phone to Serena.

"Hi Andrew."

"Listen Serena, I talked to Darien, but I couldn't get anything out of him"

"Oh..." was all that came out of Serena.

"Serena, You know you can always come to me if you need anything." Andrew offered.

"Thanks Andrew, I know, but the girls are here right now so I can't really talk."

"Ok then. Take care ok Serena? I'll come by later to hang out. How does that sound?"

"Sounds good Andrew. I'll see you later, Bye." with that Serena hung up.

After hanging around for a while, the girls had to leave and Serena was left by herself once more.
