Chapter 4
" Oh my Serena. That was classic! If I had a camera, I would have taken a picture of his face the moment you kissed him and after you soaked him to blackmail him. That was great. You are like my idol Serena!" Mina screamed with laughter.
" I bow down to the queen of evilness." Raye bowed with difficulty as she held her stomach.
" I must admit Serena, your revenge was sweet. If I had a camera, I would have taken a picture." Ami smiled widely when all of them looked at her.
" I would have loved to beat him down for you Serena, but I think you did a better job on kicking him off his high horse than I could have. Serena you made the guy go splat." Lita choked out. All of them died with laughter when Mina made a little "splat" sound in front of Serena.
" How am I ever going to face him or his group now? They are definitely going to jump me someday." Serena groaned out as she held her side while she laughed.
" Don't worry Serena. We have your back and front for that matter." Lita assured her.
" We have each other's back." Raye corrected her and received a chorus of "yes" from the girls.
Serena smiled at her friends but got butterflies in her stomach just thinking about facing Darien while she walked to class. She walked through the door and then tried to avoid Darien's scowl. Everything was going good as long as she ignored Darien's gaze on the back of her head until it got to be unbearable as the hairs on the back of her neck stood up. She silently wished for the bell to ring and gave a sigh of relief when the bell saved her from anymore glares. All was going good until they had Mrs. Hackman's class when Darien sat a couple of rows in front of her. As Mrs. Hackman lectured about the lesson, Darien glanced back at her and Serena did the only thing that came to her head.
Darien felt uncomfortable in his damp clothes, the only other clothes he had was his gym clothes and he hadn't taken them home for a couple of weeks. They were on stenchy side and he didn't want to reek in class. He had to hand it to Serena for her fast thinking but then he would have preferred it not to be at his expense though. He tried to scowl at her until he caught the look she had passed at him. A smile cut through him as he took in Serena's serene smile and her hands were folded in a prayer. Her aura screamed that she was innocent and she couldn't have done anything wrong. That girl was something he thought to himself when he caught her look and then he did the only right thing he could think of.
Serena clamped her hand over her mouth but it was useless. Darien had a serene smile on his face and hands folded up in a prayer just the look Serena had given him, it was all too much for her. She erupted into giggles then it turned into full-blown laughter when Darien joined hers. The rest of the class was mystified while Darien and Serena shared their silent joke until Mrs. Hackman demanded their attention.
" Mr. Shields and Ms. Tsukino, want to clue all of us in on what your little joke is? Well we're all waiting." She was only met with more laughter and then had enough of it.
" Fine, if you don't feel like sharing your joke with the class, then the two of you can share it in detention together. Now on with our lesson." Mrs. Hackman resumed her lecture, promptly forgetting about Serena and Darien.
Serena quit her laughing with deep controlled breaths and peeked at Darien out of the corner of her eyes. He was getting a silent lecture Brittany who was not happy with him. Class resumed and the two of them pretended they didn't know each other again. The rest of the day flew by until they had Mr. Hart's class. He lectured until the last ten minutes of the day when he asked the two opponents the plan for the day.
" Is everything set for after school today?"
Serena raised her hand and then answered his question with an honest answer. She was slightly relieved on not facing Darien that day since she wasn't up to it yet.
" Actually Mr. Hart, I can't make it today." Serena answered.
" I can't make it either." Darien nodded.
" Did you guys come to terms then?" Mr. Hart asked.
" No, we're just other wised engaged today." Darien answered for the both of them.
" We? When did you start using "we" with Serena in the sentence? You should have said, I have something to do and dweebet over there has something to do." Brittany snapped at him.
" I agree with Brit." Jackson nodded his head in agreement.
" Eat it Brittany." Lita growled at her.
" Jealous Brittany? Scared Darien might have feelings for our beautiful friend here?" Raye slyly commented with a little smirk on her face.
" Shut up Raye, you're so awful. I have detention, Darien has detention. Everybody just bite it. Mina, don't say a word." Serena groaned out with a hand to her forehead.
" She knows you all to well Mina. Ami did you see Mina snap her mouth shut? Priceless look Mina, priceless." Lita teased out.
" If I had a camera Mina.." Ami started out but was interrupted when Serena, Raye, Lita and Mina yelled out.
" AMI!"
" Okay, I won't say it but it's true." Ami defended herself.
The five girls cracked up with laughter until they realized their classmates were staring at them with a look of wonderment but before they could say anything the bell rang. They walked out of class while they laughed and giggled at their behavior. Serena waved bye to her friends before heading into Mrs. Hackman's class for detention She was the first to arrive and soon settled into her seat while she took out a pen and a piece of paper as she talked to herself out loud.
" Yes, yes I know I have to write a paper, just tell me why I am usually the only one to write these stupid papers Mrs. Hackman? How about I write about that ass of yours that can devour everyone in a gulp or I have a better idea. Let me write about my dream guy that can make me hot in like three seconds flat or love me for me. It's true Mrs. Hack, a guy that can actually love a nobody like me, can you believe it? He would only see me and nobody else. He would do anything just to make me happy and the best part of it all is that I'd be perfect with just him. I know it'll never happen in real life but a girl can dream right? What did you say Mrs. Hack? You won't tolerate this behavior? Well tough, write a paper about it." Serena muttered to herself then jumped when Darien's voice came from behind her.
" What kind of paper do we have to write about meatball head?"
" Don't call me that and how long have you been standing there?" Serena asked with an uncertain look.
" Just about paper writing. Since you've done this before, tell me what are we suppose to do? Do we sit here and talk or just look at the board." Darien asked with a cute tilt to his head.
" If that's all we had to do, that would be fun but no egghead, we have to write a paper on our behavior and the proper behavior we're suppose to have in class." Serena explained.
" Can you help me get started? Just the first paragraph and then I'll be just fine." Darien settled himself as he grabbed a pen and a piece of paper.
" Okay, just this once though. First start off writing your behavior was very naughty and then put down that Serena was totally innocent in all this. I'm also an egghead and her hair is the greatest style I've ever seen." Serena burst into laughter when she noticed Darien was writing furiously while raised his hand to have her slow down until his pen slowly came to a stop. He looked at her with an arched brow.
" Oh I see how you are Serena. Not willing to help out your fellow classmate, well I have to write a paper and I can't concentrate with you yapping in my ear." Darien put a finger to his lips to shush her and then started to write on his paper.
Serena shook her head at him and realized Darien wasn't that bad when he was alone without his group but Serena knew they could never be friends since they ran in different circles. She also knew neither of them were willing to change and she felt bad for it but she couldn't change Darien just like he couldn't change her. Also she didn't want him to change even though he was an egghead. Life was strange especially for her but truth be told, she wouldn't have it any other way. Ten minutes passed until she felt something wet her inner ear and when she went to brush it away, her hand came into connect with a nice muscular hand.
" Darien! That is so gross! I can't believe you just gave me a wet wily. Keep your bodily fluids to yourself." Serena commanded him.
" I thought I saw a little dirt there and I was just helping you clean it. Gee you're awfully moody; see if I help you again. Now shh, I'm writing a paper and I don't need distractions." Darien grinned at her.
They turned back to their papers, ten minutes passed before Serena had that feeling of being watched. Looking over to see if Darien was looking at her for some odd reason and then shrugged her shoulders when she noticed he was still writing his paper. Why would he be watching you anyways? Serena told herself and then went back to her paper. A few minutes later, Serena looked up with the feeling of being watched again but shrugged it off when she knew Darien was the only one in the room and he was writing his paper. She lost herself in her writing and then started to sing softly out loud, completely forgetting everything and the other person in the room while she lost herself in the song. Her favorite part of the song was coming up and she sang it straight from her heart.
"Every second, every minute, every hour, every day, It's you I've been thinking of. And every day, every week, every month, every year With you I want to be in love. Cuz I can't get enough Always on my mind I think about you all the time. All I need is a little more time and devotion So we can be living a life of love for eternity Cuz I don't want to be all alone A house it not a home without you by my side Without you here with me."
Serena closed her eyes while she let the sweet words wash over her heart and straight to her soul. She loved the part about the house not being a home without that person by her side because she felt it was so true if you found that person. Something in her heart tugged at her telling her she knew who that person was but Serena argued to herself no one made her feel special. Maybe anger and humiliation but not special, Serena nodded to herself when she made that point. She was so involved with debating with herself that she forgot about the other person in the room and when she finished her, she left the classroom without a word.
Darien stared wide-eyed at Serena as she left the room without a word. He was surprised when Serena started to sing softly and then soon started to fall in the magical song she spun around him. He always thought she had a pretty voice but then when she sang it was downright beautiful. He liked the part when she sang her house wouldn't be a home without that special someone by her side. He was still in disbelief he was known by everyone in the town, in the school, hell even in the grocery but never once did anyone ever do what Serena just did to him. She forgot about him.
Serena walked home while she hummed her song and then let herself inside her nice warm house. Taking off her shoes, she put her coat in the closet and walked into the kitchen. She read the note her mom had taped to the refrigerator telling her that the family went out for a few hours and wouldn't return until late.
" Well Serena, it looks like sandwiches tonight." Serena muttered to herself. Making a couple of sandwiches and just when she was about to take a bite, she stopped in midair.
" Ohmigod! I can't believe how rude I am. I totally forgot about Darien, oh no he heard me sing! How humiliating, he's probably laughing with his friends at my screechy voice. I'm never going to live it down or hear the end of it. He probably didn't even notice you left without a word, like he would care anyway, that's a plus." Serena reasoned with herself and satisfied with her answer, she took a bite of her sandwich.
The dark surrounded her when she sat on the couch while she flipped through the channels to see what was on the boon tube. A scream tore through the air and then Serena was hooked. The movie was known to scare the wits out of anyone and the chills were running up and down her spine. Sitting on the couch, she wrapped herself a quilt tightly around her and was memorized with the events that were unfolding in front of her eyes. Jumping up a mile off the couch, she heard something outside her house. Eyes wide, Serena searched every nook and corner of her house while she debated on getting up to find out what the noise was.
" You reject Serena, that's what you get for watching a scary movie by yourself. Are you nuts?" Serena whispered to herself. She turned back to the movie until she heard a thump on the door. After she had jumped out of her skin, she got up to slowly walk on her tiptoes to the closet to find a weapon she could find. Her hand enclosed around an object and without a thought to what it was, Serena grabbed it high above her head in an attacking position. Closer and closer she crept to the door and just when she had her hand on the door, Serena softly spoke to herself.
" Be brave Serena, it's probably your friends freezing outside and you're overreacting because of that movie. It's nothing, okay on the count of three, you're going to open the door and calmly look outside to see what it is. Okay here it goes, 1..2.., do I really want to say 3? Oh shit, I just said 3, I'm gonna die." Serena opened the door then screamed when a hand grabbed at her just as she swung her weapon.

" Oh my Serena. That was classic! If I had a camera, I would have taken a picture of his face the moment you kissed him and after you soaked him to blackmail him. That was great. You are like my idol Serena!" Mina screamed with laughter.
