~*~*~*~*~*~
I can feed myself, thank you!
Serena woke up and stretched out on her bed. She couldn't help but reflect on all that happened last night. It was quite funny; she managed to go on a date with Diamond. Come back alive and well, but then accidentally locking herself out of her own home…in the rain. She went out to dinner with a person she thought she 'disliked' and lastly have him confess his feelings for her. Yep it wasn't quite your average night.
Serena rolled out of bed and quickly got dressed. She couldn't help but wonder whether or not Darien really meant what he said earlier. It all went so fast. And she hardly knew him as well as she did when they were younger. Six years have passed by she wasn't quite sure what to think anymore. Pushing those thoughts away she made her way down stairs to get to school.
~*~*~*~*~*~
Darien sat in his car he was thinking about last night. He had made a decision that from now on he would act normal around Serena so he wouldn't scare her off. But he will still continue his game of cat and mouse. He was ready to fall asleep just about any minute now. He didn't know why he was trying so hard for Serena but when she stepped out of her house his doubts were soon demolished.
She walked out of the house calmly wearing a short baby blue spaghetti strap dress. She looked so innocent as she looked down at herself while her delicate hands straightened out the imaginary wrinkles in her outfit. She looked up and finally saw the pair of eyes that were watching her intently from a silver Mercedes.
Serena rolled her eyes and quickly made her way over to Darien. She raised an eyebrow at him questioning him as he got out of his car and approached her.
"What's this? Mr. Darien Shields in front of my humble home, tell me Mr. Shields, what have I done to receive this…honor?" She said mockingly.
"I just thought I'd come here to grace you with my wonderful presence." He teased back.
"Ah and that you have, the atmosphere just seems to light up while your around." Serena's voice was filled with sarcasm.
"So…do you want a lift?" Darien asked her seriousness in his tone more so then before.
"…Uh…you came all this way just to give me a lift?"
"…I was in the neighborhood."
"Uh, huh…what kind of gullible fool do you take me for Darien?"
"Crap I was hoping you would buy that."
"Alright…what are your motives Mr. Shields?" Serena narrowed one of her eyes and looked at him suspiciously.
"I don't have any evil intentions I swear! I just want to take you to school. After all friends give friends rides to school right? And if we don't leave now we'll both be late. So what do you say?"
"I say who are you and what have you done to Darien?!"
"Serena, it's not funny anymore…are you coming or not." Darien got into his car and looked over at her expectantly.
"Fine…but you better not pull anything or…"
Darien smirked. "Or what?"
"Or…er…I don't know yet but I'll do something to you!" Serena quickly slipped into the passenger seat and put on her seatbelt.
"Have you buckled up yet?"
"Yes…"
"Good…cause it's going to be a bumpy ride."
~*~*~*~*~*~
SCREECH!!!!
"AHHHHHHHHH! D~A~AAA~RIEN!" Serena breathed heavily as she opened her left eye slowly to take in her surroundings. Her right hand was on her chest as she tried to take in what just happened. When she realized that they were parked outside of the school she let out a sigh of relief. 'Thank every deity out there that I'm still alive!'
"Yes?" Darien asked innocently. "You know Serena you should breath more…it was almost like during that whole car ride you were holding your breath."
"You…bastard…don't…ever…do…that…again…" Serena seethed through clenched teeth.
"Or what will you do to me?" Darien asked amused
"OR I'LL BEAT YOU TO A PULP THAT'S WHAT! I'm never getting in a car with you ever again!"
"What…it was mostly your fault meatball head!"
"My fault! M…m…m…m…my fault? MY FAULT THAT YOU DON'T KNOW HOW TO DRIVE?! I certainly think not."
"No…it's your fault that you kept us back questioning me and my 'motives' I was just trying to get us here on time."
"Whatever…I still say your reckless driving almost got us killed. And you know what Darien? If I died I would have become a ghost and haunt you for the rest of your life…and don't you forget it!" Serena said as she opened the car door and stepped out.
'I don't think I would mind that.' Darien thought to himself as he too walked outside.
Serena took in a deep breath and almost kissed the ground on which she stood. "Ah…it's so good to be 'alive'. I swear Darien I could see my life pass before me right in front of my eyes when you made that sharp turn!"
"Oh come on my driving is not that bad! It got us here in one piece didn't it?"
Serena's eye twitched as she glared at Darien. "My physical state may look alright but because of you my mental state is no longer in one piece!"
"I'm beginning to question whether or not you were like this 'before' I gave you a lift."
Darien's smart remark earned him another death glare from Serena.
"Anyways…we should get to class before it's too late, and that would mean my 'reckless driving' as you called it and your torture would be for nothing."
"Fine…humph!"
~*~*~*~*~*~
The two walked into the school and got quite a few glances from their admirers. Pretty soon they were the talk of the whole school.
Serena and Darien seeing this went to their classes without another word and thus time passed by quite quickly and pretty soon it was lunchtime.
Serena marched out of class and into the cafeteria. She spotted Seiya and all of her other friends. She grabbed lunch and went to join her friends.
"Hey guys!" Serena smiled and greeted.
"Hey Sere." Everyone welcomed her in return."
At that same moment Serena saw Darien approaching the table.
"So how is Mr. I-can't-drive-if-my-life-depended-on-it?" Serena asked while taking a bite out of her food.
"Alive and well thank you very much." He replied.
Everyone looked at the two as though they were aliens from outer space.
"Alright…who are you guys and what did you do to Serena and Darien?" Rei asked with a raised eyebrow.
"What do you mean Rei?" Darien asked.
"Uh…earth to Darien…Serena never talks to you…and this morning you two are joking around like normal friends what happened?"
This made Serena pale. 'Oh crap did I let my guard down that much?' Serena thought. 'Anyways that doesn't matter…I still have to get Darien back for this morning and I know just what to do.'
"Uh…you guys just finish eating okay…I'm done…I'll see you later!" Serena got up and walked away.
"What's up with her?" Seiya asked.
"I have no clue." Darien replied.
~*~*~*~*~*~
Serena continued walking until she found the person she was looking for approaching the cafeteria.
"Trina!" Serena called out.
"Huh? Oh…it's you…that girl that's going out with Darien." She spat out bitterly.
"I'm not going out with Darien! Speaking of which I wanted to tell you something."
"What is it? Don't waste my time with your bragging alright?"
"Okay…first of all even if I did go out with Darien it's nothing to brag about…and secondly I wanted to tell you about how much Darien likes you but it seems like you don't care. So…I'll just be going now." Serena turned around but before she could walk away she felt Trina's hand on her shoulders.
"Wait…tell me what does he think of me?"
"Well…he told me that he wished you would join him for lunch…and maybe."
"Maybe what?" Trina asked.
Serena walked over to Trina and whispered something into her ear. Trina smiled thanked Serena, and continued to walk into the cafeteria.
~*~*~*~*~*~
Darien sat there enjoying his lunch while talking to his friends. He couldn't help but think Serena was up to something because normally she would never leave before everyone else. Since lunch is after all her favorite period of the day. He was brought back out of his thoughts when he felt arms wrap around his shoulders.
Darien turned around only to have his lips meet those that were covered in a lot of lipstick. His eyes widened as he realized that it was Trina.
"Hey Darien did you miss me?" Trina purred seductively
"Huh? What are you talking about?"
"Oh don't play dumb Darien. I know what you want Darien, Serena told me!" She whispered into his ear. She sat down onto the seat next to him and pulled his tray of food away from him. She picked up his fork and began to feed him food. "Now be a good boy and open up!"
"Trina…mph…mhmm…mhph!" He began to chew since it was impossible to even talk with all the food that she was shoving into his mouth.
All of Darien's friends stared wide-eyed…until they all broke out in fits of laughter. Seiya and Andrew almost fell to the ground laughing, while the girls were more contained with their laughter.
"Yeah you…haha…heard the girl…haha…Darien…haha…be…a good…hahahaha…boy and open…hahahahahaha…up!" Seiya barely was able to speak from all the laughing.
'Breath Darien breath…must keep calm…breath in, breath out, breath in, breath out, oh screw breathing!' "SEREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEENAAA!" Darien's shout echoed through the whole cafeteria. In the background you could still hear the laughter coming from Seiya and his group.
Serena stood by the door of the cafeteria cracking up until she heard Darien yell. 'Oh shit!'
