Recap:
Lindsey stood behind a nearby tree, watching every second of this soap
opera that she created.
She giggled to herself.
"This is great!!! If this keeps up, Endymion will be mine soon!!!" Lindsey said as she smiled an evil smile. "Now, I just have to find a way to get Endymion to be mine...forever!!" Lindsey said as she let out an evil laugh.

// At Selenity's Kingdom \\
After Selenity's run in with Endymion, she wasn't the same. She wouldn't
come out of her room for
hours and she would barely touch her food. Selenity's mother tried
talking to her, but Selenity
would run to her room and lock herself in there. After it seemed like
she would talk to no one,
Queen Serenity called Selenity's best friend, Princess Minako.
******
Princess Minako knocked on Selenity's bedroom door.
"Go away." Selenity said, not caring who it was.
"Selenity. It's me, Minako." she said. Suddenly the door opened. Selenity
stood in the doorway,
looking miserable. Her eyes were red and almost swollen from so much
crying and her face looked
pale, as if she just saw a ghost. Minako gasped slightly. "Selenity!
What happened to you?"
Selenity just stood there, looking at Minako with her saddened red
eyes. Silence briefly surrounded them.
"It's Endymion." Selenity said finally, tears beginning to form in her eyes. Selenity took Minako's hand and led her into the room.
"Selenity...what happened?" Minako asked again, saying it more gently. A tear fell from Selenity's eye.
"I broke off our engagement." Selenity said, more tears falling from her eyes. Minako's face had a saddened expression on it.
"I'm sorry." was all Minako could say. Selenity began to explain to
Minako what happened.
Everything Selenity said sounded so unreal to Minako. She had known
Endymion practically all her
life and now she's hearing that Endymion is lying....to Selenity! It
made no sense to her. Selenity cried while she told her story. As much
as Minako wanted to tell her that Endymion wouldn't do that, she kept quiet.
Her best friend was hurt and it would her Selenity more if she told her
that she didn't believe her story. "I'm sorry," was all Minako could think
to say. She couldn't think of anything else that would make her feel better
and not hurt her. There was a silence between them that made Minako uneasy.
"Can you do me a favor, Minako?" Selenity asked, breaking the silence.
"Sure. What is it?" Minako asked, willing to help her out in any way
she could. Selenity looked
down at her hands and marveled at the glimmering diamond engagement
ring that still rested on
her finger. A tear slowly slid from her eye as she slowly removed the
ring. She held it between her fingers. Before she had second thoughts,
she put the ring in Minako's hand. Minako looked at the ring, then back
at Selenity.
"You..." Minako got cut off.
"I want you to give this back to Endymion." Selenity said, a hint of reluctance in her voice. Another tear slid from her eye.
"But, Selenity..."Minako began.
"Please, Minako. Do it for me?" Selenity pleaded. Minako couldn't stand to see Selenity be hurt like this, so she curled her hand into a fist, holding the ring inside it and nodded.
"Okay." Minako said, a little reluctant. Selenity gave Minako her best
smile and hugged her. They
parted from their embrace.
"Thank you sooooo much, Minako. I don't know what I'd do without you."
Selenity said. Minako just
smiled. "And thanks for listening to me." Selenity added.
"Anytime." Minako said. They hugged once more and smiled. Soon, Minako
walked out the door.
While Minako was walking, she though about what Selenity said about
Endymion. It was
unbelievable to her. It bothered her to think that Endymion lied to
Selenity, so she could think of only one thing. She went to Endymion's
house.
// At Endymion's house \\
Minako sat in a chair in Endymion's room while Endymion paced back and
forth, telling his side of
the story. Immediately, Minako knew that he wasn't lying. Selenity
was given the wrong
information...by her own cousin!! Selenity is so naive. Minako sadly
shook her head.
"Poor Selenity. She doesn't realize what a lying bitch Lindsey is. Her love for Lindsey has blinded her." Minako said with sorrow in her voice.
"I know. And the more I keep on trying to tell her that Lindsey is lying,
she further she pushes
herself away from me." Endymion said. His eyes were filled with sadness.
He let out a sigh. "Can
this get any worse?" Endymion asked sarcastically. Minako shifted uneasily
in her seat. She
cleared her throat. Well...um...yes it can." Minako said nervously.
Endymion eyed her
questioningly.
"And how is that possible?" Endymion asked, even though he didn't want
to know. Minako sighed
and took out the ring. She held it in between her fingers. She turned
it, as if to display it. The she placed it in his hands. Once he was holding
ring, his hands began to tremble, making the ring shake a little.
"No." Endymion whispered.
"I'm sorry, Endymion." Minako said, taking hold of his free hand. She
gave it a gentle squeeze,
attempting to comfort him.
"Selenity's gone.....forever." Endymion whispered a loud. Endymion closed
his eyes in an attempt
to hold back his tears. He had to stay strong of he wanted Selenity
back. He breathed deeply and
let out a heavy sigh.
"Minako..." He said, looking at her.
"Yes?"
"I need you to help me get Selenity back." Endymion said, determination
in his eyes. Minako
looked back at him with doubtful eyes.
"But Endymion....how can we? Everytime we....er....you try to tell her the truth, she doesn't want to listen. Like I said before, her love for Lindsey is blinding her. How can we convince her that you're innocent and that Lindsey is the liar?"
"I don't know. Lindsey's tricky. She can get away with a lot of things...so this won't be easy."
"Tell me something I _don't_ know." Minako said sarcastically. They both sighed.
"Oh well. We'll figure something out." Endymion said.
"Yeah....I guess so." Minako said unenthusiastically.
"We have to find a way to make Selenity catch Lindsey in her lie." Endymion
said. "But how?" he
asked himself.
"I don't know....maybe we won't even have to do anything." Minako said.
Endymion looked at her in
a confused expression.
"What do you mean?" Endymion asked, curious to find out.
"I don't know....I just meant that maybe she'll find out on her own." Minako said, gazing at the floor beneath her. Endymion let out a little chuckle.
"Knowing Selenity, I doubt that'll happen anytime soon." Endymion said, chuckling a little. Minako just gave a little smile.
// Meanwhile.... \\
Selenity was at Lindsey's house, visiting her. Lindsey's best friend
was also there. It was about 2 o'clock in the afternoon and they had been
talking and joking around since noon. Then...
Lindsey and her best friend, Danielle, were stretched out across the bed. Selenity got up from her seat on the bed. She turned to face them.
"I'm going to get a bottle of water from the kitchen. Do you guys want
anything while I'm there?"
Selenity asked.
"Oh, no thanks. Not me." Lindsey said with a smile on her face.
"Yeah, me neither." Danielle said.
"Okay then. I'll be right back." Selenity said.
"Okay." Lindsey and Danielle said simultaneously. When Selenity left, the girls giggled.
"Are you serious???" Danielle asked.
"Yup. Selenity is VERY gullible. She fell for everything I said!! She has _no_ idea that everything is a lie. Endymion will be mine for sure!" Lindsey said as a evil smile appeared on her lips.
"Wow, Lindsey. You're good. And to be able to snag a guy like Endymion!
Wow....that's
just....great!" Danielle said.
"Everything is going so well! It's unbelievable!! It's wonderful!! Everyday, I keep pinching myself, just to make sure that I'm not dreaming." Lindsey said. The girls giggled.
"I can't believe it. Could Selenity get any dumber??" Danielle asked in a sarcastic tone of voice.
"Yeah...she probably could. She's like a sponge. Just absorbing every lie I tell her. It's wonderful! She doesn't even realize I'm lying! She thinks that Endymion lied to her about him telling her he loves her and only her. I'm telling you....she is _so_ naive!!" Lindsey said. The girls giggled again. Suddenly, the bedroom flew open. Selenity stood in the doorway, her eyes full of anger, her hand tightly curled around the bottled water. Lindsey and Danielle stared at her as if she was a stranger.
"Whoa...what happened to you?" Lindsey asked with fake sympathy.
"Lindsey.....YOU BITCH!!!!" Selenity screamed.
