School

*******************

Darien walked into his new school and looked around. Where was he supposed to go now?

Someone tapped him on the shoulder and he turned around to see a girl standing before him. He smiled slightly.

"You're new aren't you?" Darien nodded. "Yes I am." She took his hand. "This way. You need to go to the main office."

She led him down the hall and stopped in front of the office. "Well here it is. So by the way, what is your name?" she asked.

Darien stopped with his hand on the doorknob. "My name is Darien. And you?"

Her eyes widened. "Darien did you say?" She turned to leave.

"Wait! I didn't get your name!" he yelled as she dashed down the hall.

"Mina!" she called back before she turned a corner.

Darien shook his head as he opened the door and walked into the office.

~~~~~

Mina raced down the halls and ran into her homeroom and into her seat.

"Woah there Mina. Why are you in such a hurry?" asked Raye.

Mina fanned herself and calmed down. "There was this guy. He was so cute!" The others shook their heads. "Is that all you think about Mina, boys?" asked Amy.

Mina waved her hand. "Yeah but." She got cut off by the bell ringing and the door closing.

They all turned forward as the teacher stood before the class with a young man standing off to the side.

"That's him!" whispered Mina.

The others all stared at him. "He is cute." Said Lita.

"Ok class. Settle down. We have a new student all the way from Japan. Why don't you introduce yourself?" and she turned to the new student.

Lita turned around slightly. "You lived in Japan. Do you know him?" she asked the blonde sitting behind her.

The blonde didn't look up from her book, where she was sketching. She pulled off her headphones to hear her friend talk. "I don't know." And she went silent again after replacing her headphones back over her ears.

Back up at the front of the class Darien shifted slightly and pushed his hand through his hair. The girls in the class all swooned.

"Well I'm from Japan.. umm.." "What's your name?" one girl asked him. "Oh. right. My name is Darien."

The girls all sighed.

"Darien why don't you go and sit in the back corner by the window." Said the teacher. Darien nodded and hitched his book bag higher and went to his seat and sat down.

Amy looked after him. "Didn't Serena say that guy she met was named Darien?" she asked. Mina sighed. "That was what I was trying to tell you. You guys never listen to me." They all moved to gaze at him. "He is cute." Muttered Raye.

The bell rang again and the class all rose and started to leave. Darien walked to the front of the class and asked the teacher where his next class was located.

"Oh I have to be somewhere now. I haven't time to show you. Let's find someone to help you." She looked around and saw that no one was left in the room except someone at the very back of the room. "Oh there's someone."

Darien turned and saw a blonde with headphones one. Wasn't that the girl who showed him to the office?

"Serena." Said the teacher. Darien eyes widened at that. The girl didn't move. "Serena!"

The girl dropped her sketchpad and pulled off her headphones. "What?" She looked up at them.

"Don't what me young lady and you know you're not suppose to have those things in school."

"Sorry." "I'll forget it this time if you would do me a favor and show Darien around the school."

As Serena was putting away her CD player and sketchpad she almost dropped her book bag. "Who?" her eyes wide.

"Darien, the new student from Japan." Said the teacher. "And please hurry up I need to be somewhere soon."

"Japan?" She glanced at Darien. "Darien?"

She stood up and clutched the book bag to her.

"Serena?" he asked. He clutched the star locket and pulled it out of his pocket. Serena gasped.

He teacher just shook her head and left the room.

"Prince?"

"Angel?"

Serena dropped her bag and ran to Darien and hugged him for all she was worth. "Oh Darien." He hugged her back. "Serena. I missed you." They stayed like that for several minutes.

~~~~~

The other girls peeked into the room and smiled. Maybe now Serena would be happier.
