Hey! Wuz up? Me again! Hope you like this story so far! I hope this chapter
isn't going to be short. I'm TRIING making it long, I really AM, but it's
just so hard! Anywayz a million thanx to you for reading this. This is my
first fic, so I wanna make it REALLY good. Wish me luck, and I hope you
like it.
This is rated PG for some MILD language . . . I mean REALLY mild . . .
Oh! And thanx to my friends, ESPECIALLY Silvermoon928 for helping me through the tough parts and everything! You have to go read her stories! They are SO GOOD! And I know a good story when I read one. This chapter is kind of boring in the beginning, but it gets better and more romantic. So enough with the boring chitchat and on with the story!!
Oh and P. S.: I would like to thank Angel Queen and Ghetto Queen for their totally sweet reviews!!! If it weren't for them . . . you wouldn't be able to read this chapter here cuz I would have been WAY to discouraged to even write it!!! So I dedicate this chapter to them!!! HI Y'ALL!!! (yes, I am a Texan, what of it?!?!?!)
Part Two Of
Moonlight Romance
Serena was running through the park. She thought about what happened earlier. 'Something weird is going on and I'm gonna find out what it is' she thought. She stopped in the rose garden and looked around. Everything was so beautiful here. It was peaceful and quiet. Serena walked up to the fountain. It had two angels on it. They were both looking up at the sky. She splashed some water on herself.
"It feels so good out here," she said to herself.
"Really?" a voice asked, "I think it's a little chilly."
"Aaahhhhhh!" Serena shrieked. She looked back and found that it was Darien. "What are you doing here?"
"I could ask you the same," he replied.
"Well, I'm here to sort some things out," she told him.
"I'm here to . . . well . . . see if you're okay, I guess," he answered.
"Well, I'm fine, so you can go home now."
"No, I think I'll stick around here for a while," he said.
"Why? What do you want from me?!" Serena asked.
"Nothing, I just wanna make sure that you really are okay . . . is that so wrong?" Darien replied.
Serena was silent and confused. "Why do you care?" Serena asked.
"Well . . . " Darien shifted uncomfortably, "Because I . . . I don't know. I just do" He looked down, avoiding her gaze. Serena was quiet. He mustered up some courage and forced himself to look her in the eye. She was staring intently at him. He felt a tad bit uncomfortable but he didn't look away. Finally Serena spoke, after a couple minutes of silence.
"Well, as you can see, I am fine," Serena turned to leave.
"Wait!" Serena looked at Darien. "Don't go!" Darien said hurriedly, as if he were afraid that Serena would turn and leave him any second. She stood there waiting for him to continue. "I uh . . . I umm."
"Yeah?" she asked, a bit confused. "Darien?" she asked softly trying to read his expression. "What is it?" He seemed nervous for some reason. 'What's wrong with him?' she thought to herself.
'What am I supposed to say?' Darien thought. 'Serena can't leave . . .'
'What's stopping her?' said a voice in his head.
'Huh?'
'Well, she's not going anywhere . . . so what's stopping her from leaving?'
'Well-I . . . umm . . ."
'Yeah, that's what I thought. Just ask the girl out or something before she actually DOES leave!'
'FINE!!! God, my stupid conscience is so damn demanding! . . . Okay, here goes.'
"Umm, Serena . . . are you doing anything tonight? I mean-you know-well, I thought that maybe we could-I don't know-maybe we could have dinner-or something like that . . ." he trailed off.
Serena smiled, a totally HOT guy was asking HER out! 'I must be dreaming' she thought. Serena looked at Darien. He looked so worried and tense, like he was afraid she was going to reject him. 'Poor Darien.' "Sure, I would love that," she told him.
He relaxed. "So I'll pick you up at six-thirty-ish, okay?" Darien asked her. She nodded.
"Where are we gonna go?" she asked.
"Don't worry about that. Just leave it up to me," he replied.
"Okay, then! I'll see you tonight!" she waved at him as she walked off.
