I'm glad everyone is enjoying this story so much! Thank you all for the
reviews I've gotten! ^^ Due to turbulence in my household.I'm not sure if
I'll be updating this story A LOT or not very often at all. I'm hoping more
for the first choice.
Disclaimer.I don't own the characters from Sailor Moon. Please don't sue!
*begs* I've got enough problems in my screwed up life right now!
Blame it on the Book Pt 5
"All right Mina, who'd you set us up with?" Raye walked into the arcade.
"I'm not telling. You'll just have to wait until tonight to find out," Mina smiled devilishly at her friend.
"Oh come on, just a little hint?" Lita begged.
"Nope, not one itsy-bitsy, teensy-weensy little hint."
"You are impossible. I have half a mind to just stay home and study. I'm only five chapters ahead you know. I'm afraid I've been slacking off," Ami looked worried, realizing just how far behind she was in being ahead.
"You can study anytime. I guess that if it will make you come I'll give you one hint."
"Tell us! Please!" Raye begged.
"You have to promise to come first. You can't figure out the hint and then not show."
"We promise," Everyone looked at Mina and waited, while they took a seat.
"Okay, your hint is that every one of you knows everyone of them," Mina smiled, knowing they would have to show because they had promised.
"That's not much of a hint Mina," Raye and Lita said at the same time.
"It was still a hint and you promised you would show, so no backing out now," Mina smiled at them.
"Look, there Serena. I wonder if she's feeling any better," Lita waved her hands at Serena to catch her attention.
"Hey guys," Serena took a seat next to Mina.
"Mina still won't tell us who she's got us set up with tonight," Raye glared at Mina.
"I'm not going. I don't feel like going out."
"Please Serena. You have to come!"
"I don't want to."
"You're going to stand up your date? He all ready said he was coming. Just imagine how bad you're going to make him feel," Mina stuck out her lip in a full fledged pout.
"Put your lip away, you've all ready guilt tripped me into going. Who is this guy any way."
"She won't tell you. She gave us a lousy hint but that was all," Ami sighed.
"You suck big time Mina," Serena propped her head up with her hands.
Mina looked up in time to see the guys walking in the door and heading in her direction. Oh no! Their going to ruin the surprise! No one will come! I'll be at the movies alone! Get a grip. Just leave the table. Say you have to use the restroom or something. "Um....uh..I have to go to the..uh....bathroom. Excuse me Lita." Mina turned to Lita wanting out of the booth.
"All right, all right, I'm moving. Don't be in such a big hurry!" Lita scooted out of the booth.
Mina stood up quickly and headed to the counter. She hoped that she didn't give away the identities of their dates with that hurry up job of getting out of the booth. The guys had changed directions though.
"Mina, what do you have planned tonight?" Greg inquired as the guys closed in on Mina.
"What do you mean Greg?"
"You know what he means. Who do you have us set up with?" Chad squinted.
"Oh. That."
"Yeah, that." Andrew joined in from behind the counter.
"You will just have to find out tonight. Just show up. Hey, where's Darien? Isn't he normally here by now?"
"He wasn't feeling well. He might not make it tonight."
"No! He has to come!"
"Oh, is he your date?" Ken smiled sort of relieved. While Mina was nice and all, she wasn't really his type. He had thought that she wanted him to be her date.
"No." Mina smiled at Ken. Oops. I guess she does want to be my date.
"Excuse me, I'm with friends right now." Mina squeezed through the guys and walked back over to her table.
"I wonder. She hangs out with Lita, Ami, Raye, and Serena. Maybe that's who she set us up with. You think?" Ken stood watching the table. None of the guys could tell who he was staring at, but most of them all ready knew.
"It's a good possibility. You noticed she jumped up when she us coming. Maybe she just doesn't want them to find out either. The only question is who's going with whom." Greg also stared at the table.
"Are you sure they said that they were coming?" Mina looked worried.
"Of course I'm sure. They want to know who set them up with as much as I do. You should know that by the way Lita and Ami were talking earlier. Speaking of the dates, are you going to tell me mine yet?" Raye was wearing khakis with a purple shirt.
"No. What about Serena? Did she say she was coming for sure?"
"Of course I'm coming. You put a major guilt trip on me. Remember?" Serena was wearing black shorts and a pink shirt with white bunnies on it, and of course, pigtails.
"Oh thank God. I was sure you weren't coming," Mina looked slightly relieved.
"Well stop worrying. Lita and Ami said they'd be here a little late. Something about that new hair dresser."
"Oh great, now it will take them forever to get here," Raye placed her hand on her forehead in dismay.
"Take us forever huh?" Lita's smiling face greeted Raye.
"Wow! They did a great job with your hair!" Mina looked in amazement at the mass of hair on Lita's head.
"I know. Isn't it wonderful? I thought it looked great with my outfit." Lita struck a pose showing off her green shorts overalls and yellow shirt. Ami stood next to her and struck a similar pose. Ami wore a white shirt with blue pants.
"You look great Lita. So do you Ami." Mina was majorly relieved that all of her friends showed up. "How about you guys go in and I'll wait here for the guys? Kay?"
"Why? Think we'll scare them off?" Raye looked at Mina with a sarcastic look that matched her sarcastic voice.
"Just go."
"All right, we're going." Ami turned to the ticked booth to buy her ticket.
Mina watched her friends enter the theatre. Phew! Now they won't know until later who they're set up with. "Hello Mina." Hopefully, everything will go as planned. Darien had better show up.
"Hey Mina! Come back to Earth." Ken's voice finally registered in Mina's mind.
"Oh, hi Ken!" Mina watched as Ken walked closer to her. "Where's everyone else?" Once again, worry overtook Mina.
"Don't worry, they're coming."
"Should we go in or stand out here and wait?"
"I want to see everyone, but I suppose we should wait out here for the other guys."
"Wait no longer, for we are here m'lady," Andrew took a deep bow, which caused Mina to blush as she smiled. Maybe Ken was a mistake, Andrew's cuter.
"Oh stop it. Just buy your ticket and go in." Mina smiled sheepishly at Andrew.
"As you wish," Andrew smiled back and then headed into the theatre followed closely by Greg, Chad, Ken, Mina and a reluctant Darien.
