Serena had been up since six o'clock. She just was not able to sleep anymore after she had the most wonderful dreams of Andrew. So she got up and decided to do some homework to make the time pass until she could go to school. Of course she did not want to go there but school meant only a few hours left to meet Andrew at the Arcade afterwards. So she cleared her mind of everything and tried to do her math homework. Much to her own surprise she managed it and actually understood it. Grinning she just could imagine Ms. Haruna's face when she would hand in her homework. Extremely pleased with herself she went to take a shower and to put on her uniform and some make up. Smiling she actually thought it was nice to have time to take a shower in the morning and promised to herself to do that more often. Falling in love with Andrew most certainly had its advantages. Her smile only faltered once when she thought about her former prince. She really did hope she would not run into him today. As soon as she finished her homework she walked down into the kitchen "Mornin`", she greeted her mother happily who stopped moving around at the instant she heard her daughter. Slowly, she rubbed her ears and eyes and then turned around with wide eyes. "Serena? Are you alright?", she asked her daughter in a kind voice afraid her daughter might be ill. "Geez, mom, it's not like the first time I got up on time", Serena complained and sat down to inhale her breakfast. Her mother just blinked and decided that her daughter was alright. After all she did eat as usual: like a pig that had been starving for the last few months. After breakfast and still on time, Serena left her home. She hoped that she would not meet Darien or better not run into him. After all that was one of the reasons for her being on time, although only a minor one. The main reason was of course Andrew. Unfortunately, she was not the only one with that trail of thoughts. As soon as she rounded the usual corner of her 'running-ins', she was greeted with the face of her former love. Despite being in love with Andrew now, her hearts still ached when she thought about his betrayal. Not being the klutz she always had been she actually side-stepped him and continued walking towards her school. Today was a very different day than usual. Serena was more than on time in school, she had been there 15 minutes before the school even started. Later that day it was told that more than one teacher was at the nursery complaining about hallucinations. Ms. Haruna did actually faint when Serena was already sitting in her class when she entered. She was not only sitting there but also looking into one of her books. That was just too much for the teacher and so she fainted. The other senshi were watching her amazement filling their eyes. You could see their brains working if you would look closely. All thinking the same: "Has Serenity returned". But all questioning was ignored by Serena and silenced with a "I will tell you tomorrow at the meeting".

Whistling some happy tune she happened to hear as she left school, Serena skipped down the road towards the Crown Arcade (is that the name?). One more day of freedom of the Senshi buisness and of questions and accusations. She was afraid of what the Senshi would say about Andrew. Would they understand her or side with the Earth Prince? Signing, she decided not to think about it anymore. "Hey Andrew", she greeted with a smile upon entering the arcade. It was empty besides of Andrew, his sister and herself. Unsure how to greet him in front of her, she moved towards the counter and sat down. But Andrew would have nothing of that. "Hey beautiful", he said to her and gave her a light kiss on the lips. He took one of her hands and caressed it with his own. "See, I told you so. It is true. Will you take over now, please?", he told his sister who was under shock.

Sorry, I did not have the time to update the last few months. University is so much work. I will kill the person who said that the life of a student is a lazy one! Please review!
