A/N: Um…I don't own the Sailor Moon characters. I wish I did but I don't. *sigh*
Onto the second chapter.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~
The Silent Stalker
~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Serena walked home, desperately trying to hide the chocolate stains down the front of her blouse. 'Just two more blocks!' Serena thought as she ran down the street to her house. She was sub-consciously aware of someone running deftly behind her but she was more concerned with the chocolate stain on her new blouse.
She ran up to the bathroom and pulled her clothes off. She stood in the bathroom letting the tub fill up. Once again, she was more concerned with the sticky mess she was covered in than in the fact that the window was open. Serena climbed into the bath and washed all the chocolate milkshake off.
While she was starting to get out she noticed a rustling noise outside the window. Serena wrapped a towel around herself and went over to the window. 'There's no one out here. I wonder what made that noise. There isn't any wind.' When she turned back around to get her clothes she saw a crumpled piece of paper lying in the sink.
"What on Earth is this?" Serena uncrumpled the paper and read it.
My beloved Monkey,
You look so sweet when you're upset. You look even sweeter when you're taking you're clothes off. May I offer a word of advice? Close the window and curtains when you're going to stand around in your bathroom with no clothes on.
Your Admirer,
Darien
"AAAHHHHH!!!!! HOW DARE HE!!! HE SPIED ON ME!!!!! THAT JERK!!! THAT LECHER!!!!!!! THAT PERVERT!!!!!!!" Serena jumped up and down, screaming. She got the attention of the whole neighborhood and the attention of the recently fleeing Darien.
"Good grief! I didn't expect her to make that much noise!" Darien stopped briefly one block away to hear an enraged Serena ranting about how much of a pervert he truly is.
~*~*~*~*~*~
Serena sat in her bedroom clutching the little letter with every ounce of strength she had. Molly was sitting next to her on the bed.
"How could he!?" Serena said between sobs, "How could he actually look at me while I was bathing!? It's bad enough that he fight with Melvin over me, but now he's turned into a…a…silent stalker or something!" Serena had once again started crying.
"Now Serena…why are you making such a big deal out of this? He probably didn't see a thing! He probably just made it up to get a rise out you." Molly broke a piece of her paki off and gave it to Serena. "The whole thing will blow over soon enough."
Serena ate the paki and then took three more sticks from Molly, "Maybe you're right Moll." Serena continued munching on the paki and then looked at the clock. "AH! I'm gonna be late for ceramics class!!!! Sorry Molly but I got to go!" Serena grabbed her briefcase and ran out the door leaving Molly sitting on the bed with a stick of paki hanging out of her mouth.
"She must really need that class credit. I haven't seen her so worried about getting to class on time since junior high." Molly leaned back on the bed still dressed in her high school uniform. "I guess I ought to go home. Mom will no doubt want me to help run one of the registers." Molly left but noticed that Serena had left her note lying in the open in the living room. She picked it up and decided to give it back to her tomorrow.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Serena ran into her class three seconds before the bell rang. She sat down in between Melvin and Darien. Darien eyed her with genuine interest and Melvin seemed like he could care less if she was dead. It was completely unlike Melvin.
"So…Melvin! How are you?" Serena tried to spark his interest.
Melvin just continued studying his advanced physics book. "Fine." He said this with a complete lack of interest. He just wasn't into pampering her anymore.
"Something wrong my monkey?" Darien said while twirling a piece of her hair around his finger. "Are you upset about something?" He had a malicious twinkle in his eyes.
Serena untangled her hair from his finger. "Everything is fine Darien. I'm not upset about anything. I'm just a little worried about Melvin. I have nothing to be upset about at all. The chocolate stain on my shirt came out easily with a little bit of bleach."
Darien gave a little chuckle, "Are you sure there's nothing else that might be upsetting you?" Darien was trying to get her to start yelling about the note but she was determined on keeping her cool.
"You mean other than your mere presence?" Serena took some paki out of her briefcase that she had been hoarding. She began munching on the crunchy treats. Darien stole a couple sticks and started eating them. Suddenly the whole class noticed Serena had Paki and soon Serena didn't have anymore. "HEY!!! It took two weeks allowance to buy all that paki you guys just chowed down on!" Serena was once again enraged. Her private stash of paki had just been invaded and conquered.
The teacher walked in and ordered everyone into their seats. Serena sat crying silent tears over the lose of her paki.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
When class was over Serena sat on a bench in the park clutching a small disfigured clay pot. The result of hard work and clumsy hands during ceramic class. She had to paint the little abomination before the next class. Darien walked up behind her and placed a light kiss on her neck that sent shivers up her spine.
"WHO IN THE HELL??" Serena whirled around to face her "silent stalker".
"Oh, it's you. Please don't do that anymore. You're like an evil little stalking…thing." Serena rubbed her neck where he had kissed her.
"Why not my little monkey?" Darien ran a finger down her cheek.
Serena pushed his hand away, "FOR THE LAST TIME!!! I AM NOT YOUR LITTLE MONKEY!!!!!!"
Darien pulled her close to him, "That's not what your actions tell me. You enjoy the thought of being mine. And I enjoy the thought of being yours." He pulled her into a deep kiss and sent her head spinning. Serena still had some of her wits about her though, and with the last ones she lifted the clay pot over his head…
