Hey everyone! Well this is the first story I've ever written... I started it when I was about fourteen and I'm eighteen now so it's really come a long way! It starts out a little slow with some short chapters, but I promise it gets better as it goes along! :) Anyway, enjoy!
The Beginning
Serena smiled as she looked up into the sun. It was going to be a beautiful day for shopping with her boyfriend! She grinned mischievously and reached involuntarily for Darien's arm. Her hand, however, grabbed only air. Darien had disappeared! She looked around her, wondering where Darien had gone.
"Darien!" Serena exclaimed.
"I'm right here meatball head!" Darien laughed behind her.
"Oh Darien! Stop teasing me! You know I hate to be called that! This isn't the best of days you know." Serena said, tearing up.
"Oh sorry!" Darien slapped his head. "I forgot Miss Haruna gave you detention today, but a shopping spree would help right?" he asked smiling.
"Ooooooo Darien! I knew you loved me!" Serena exclaimed!
"What a question!" Darien smiled sheepishly.
Serena threw her arms around him and Darien forgot everyone but her as their lips met. When they separated, Serena looked up to see Lita sitting on a bench looking awfully lonely.
"Lita! Hey Lita over here!" Serena called.
Lita looked up and smiled at her friend. She was glad to see Serena, but embarrassed too- she had been waiting a while now... although it wasn't the first time she had been stood up. She suddenly found her shoes very interesting and avoided Serena's questioning eyes. Darien finally broke the silence.
"Hey Lita, what's a beautiful girl like you doing sitting alone?" Darien asked smiling.
Lita blushed and Serena fumed.
"Hey I thought I was beautiful!" Serena shouted.
"Quiet down Serena, I was only joking!" Darien said laughing.
Serena looked unsure. Lita was looking extremely beautiful today. Her sleeveless yellow tank top and short green skirt didn't hide her shapely curves and beautiful long legs. Height did have its advantages... and her lovely auburn hair and emerald eyes didn't hurt either.
Lita smiled and said, "Well you're probably the only one who thinks so, the guy who was supposed to meet me obviously didn't!"
Serena's eyes grew wide, "Oh Lita! I'm so sorry! Are you all right?"
Lita looked sad for a moment but quickly shrugged it off. "I'll be fine..." her voice wavered slightly. "I'm going to head home now, I've got to clean my house. It's a mess!"
She ran off before Darien and Serena could see the tears falling from her cheeks. They watched her go with worried expressions.
"Darien, do you think she'll be all right?" Serena asked nervously.
"I think so Serena. Lita's strong, she'll be okay." Darien assured her, slipping an arm around her waist.
Serena took one last look towards her friend's retreating form before she obediently followed Darien towards the nearest clothing boutique.
******************************************************************************
Lita charged inside of her apartment as soon as the lock turned and slammed the door shut behind her. She leaned up against it and sobbed.
"How could I be so stupid! I should've known not to ask some jerk out!" She whispered to herself, wiping the tears away.
I don't know what I'm going to do, she thought. I miss Ken... I wish he were here. She stood up and went into her bathroom to wash her face. She took one look at her swollen eyes and grimaced.
"Ugh, not good." she muttered.
She washed her face in the sink and dried it off with a towel. She walked out of the bathroom and pulled on her pajamas. She slid under the covers and the thoughts of the day came to her again. She wasn't surprised when her tears also resurfaced.
She cried herself to sleep... and then the dreams began...
