Chapter 10:

It had been a few days since my return home and already I was missing Darien. Mom had returned to work and Sammy was only just beginning his days of high school hell. I was the only one that didn't have anything going on besides watching soap operas and sitting in front of the computer, typing up naughty stories that nobody else would ever read. Such was my life these days.

I had nobody to hang out with now that summer was over. I hadn't even seen Mina or Jack since the beginning of August. They were both busy with college life anyway. Trista was also very busy these days. She worked part time at a clothing store and the other half of the week she would be at her fashion-design school. I almost wished I was back in high school. That's how bored I was.

It was ten in the morning and miraculously, I was wide awake. I had awoken from a very vivid dream at 7AM and then made my way downstairs to the computer, actually beating Sammy to it. He came out of his room half an hour later and simply stared at me. I turned around to face him.

" Good Morning Sammy! You better hurry and have your shower now or you'll be late for school!"

" Serena...you're actually awake before noon. Is the world ending?" He asked, perplexed.

" I couldn't sleep okay? I guess going to bed at ten last night made me wake up too early. That or the fact that Artemis would NOT shut up and leave me alone. He pissed off Luna too."

" Another cat fight caused by the stupid but cute cat huh?"

" Yeah, he's real cute when he's chasing Luna around the house at four in the morning. Think he'd be cuter as a fur coat?"

I was only joking of course. Truth is, I love my cats and would never trade them in for anything. I realize that I haven't told you much about my pets. Well, there's my eight year old female cat Luna. She has copper eyes and black fur. I named her specifically after the cat in my favorite anime, Sailor Moon. Luna was the name of the main character, Usagi's cat and since Usagi has blonde hair like mine AND she's a lot like me, I decided that Luna was the perfect name for my cat. Luna is kinda mean at times and she's been known to attack people. Mom is the only one who can pick her up without the risk of getting clawed to death.

Then I got another cat when I turned fifteen. That would be Artemis. Like Luna, I named him after a cat from Sailor Moon. Artemis is white with blue eyes and he is so fluffy. I love him so much because he's like a ragdoll. I pick him up and carry him around and he goes limp. He's also very talkative and kinda stupid. He's been known to get lost in the house a lot and he'll cry out until we find him and pick him up.

Mom came downstairs soon after Sammy left to get ready. She was already dressed and ready for work. " Serena! You're up early today sweetie!" She said as she made her way into the kitchen to make breakfast.

" I couldn't sleep with Artemis and Luna growling and meowing at each other so I threw a pillow at them and decided to just come down here and play on the computer."

" Oh, well that's what happens when you shut them up in your room all night...you know Artemis is a pest in the morning..."

" But he's still SO CUTE!" We both said at the same time, giggling.

" Oh Serena, I missed you this weekend." Mom said as she poured the pancake batter into the pan.

" Mom, I've been here with you for nearly eighteen years! How could you possibly miss me so much? I wasn't even gone for four days."

" I know, but I'm just not used to this house being so empty. I don't know what I'm going to do when you move out..."

" Mom, you know I won't be leaving for a few years. I'm living here until I graduate from college. I'm not ready to live on my own yet anyway."

" you're not ready to get a job yet either by the looks of it."

" Mom! I told you before that I want my freedom! For twelve years I have had to go to school and only have the weekends and holidays to myself-"

" But you've had your freedom all summer! What are you going to do all day that you can't do on a day off? You're an adult now and you have to start acting like one."

" Says who? Mom, I'm not even eighteen yet and I just want to have this one year to do whatever I want before I go back to school next September. Is that so wrong?"

Mom sighed. She knows she can't win against me. " Fine, Serena. Do what you want. But this isn't over."

" Fine." I replied as I checked my E-mail. Nobody had written to me. Not a single message from any of my friends. Well, I would just have to write to them instead. I clicked on Amy's name from my contact list and began to write to her.

Dear Ami_Chan,

Hey! How are you? I'm sorry I missed you this weekend. I was actually up at Dad's to try and have the relationship with my Dad that I missed as a kid. So far, so good. So what's up with you? Have you and Zack worked things out yet? If he so much as looks at you the wrong way, let me know so I can kick his cheating butt. I can't believe he'd do that to you. How's everybody else up there? Is Ann still going to school with you? I haven't heard from her in a long time. Last I heard she was still dating my old crush Alan Johnson. He turned out to be crazy, did you know? I'm glad I was too timid back then to ask him out! How is high school hell? I'm so bored right now that I actually want to go BACK to high school. Go figure! Well, write back soon!

I clicked ' SEND' and waited. I almost swore when the wrong window appeared.

" What do you mean her inbox is full? It can't be full because _I'm_ writing to her! Amy, check you damn e-mail!" I growled.

Well fine. Amy wasn't the only person in my contact list. I would simply find somebody else. Let's see...Amy ( Ami-Chan) Mizuno,

Amara Tenou, Molly Olson, Raye Shields, Trista Meiou, Mina Aino...Kara...Ann...Jessica...I can't believe that's all I have besides my parents and Sammy!

I decided I would send messages to everyone in the list. I clicked on Amara's name. Amara was sort of a friend to me. I had met her in my senior year at Starlit Hills High School. She's tall with short blonde hair and dark blue eyes. In the beginning I hung out with her constantly and beat her in all the video games. Now I prefer to limit the amounts of time I spend with her. Amara told me she was a lesbian shortly after we started hanging out. At first I was surprised, but I'm not the kind of person who would stop being friends with someone just because of their sexual preference. No, it takes a bit more than that. See, after she confided in me, she started to ask me if there was a possibility that I could be bi-sexual since I hadn't even had a boyfriend at the time. I said no, of course but she just kept asking me and it was staring to creep me out. I mean, I knew guys checked me out but the idea of one of my female friends having the hots for me...I'm gonna just stop there.

But despite all that, Amara was still nice and she was someone I could confide in. And boy did I ever need to confess! So, I clicked on her name.

'Mara, It's Serena! Listen, something VERY big happened to me this weekend and I need to tell someone. We need to meet up on MSN Messenger around noon when everyone is out working or going to school or whatever! By the way, you can't tell ANYONE!!! You take this to the grave if I tell you.

I sent it and then clicked on Molly's name. Molly was one of my VERY messed up friends. She was only sixteen and had dropped out of school for a while. She was back this year because of my constant nagging. See, Molly was someone I had met by accident back in Junior year. It had been my three hour lunch period. See, I had two free periods in a row starting at 10:05 and ending at 12:35. None of my other friends had that time off so I was bored most of the time. I sat at my locker in front of the Career Resource room everyday, writing stories or drawing my own Sailor Moon-esque comic books. One day the career advisory teacher, Ms Natsumi saw me and invited me to sit at the table in her classroom instead.

One day, I noticed that her computers were open to the students for anything, including checking e-mail. I sat down at one and started doing just that, when a younger red haired girl started talking to me. She was in ninth grade and was sort of nice, so I decided to talk to her on a regular basis. It seemed she had a lot of problems with her family and her other friends, whom I considered to be delinquents. I spent more time talking her out of doing all the stupid things she had considered doing. I convinced her to leave her old friends that were a very bad influence on her and I constantly reminded her that she could do better than the losers she considered to be boyfriend material.

I continued to talk to her when she entered tenth grade. By then, she had lost her virginity but didn't remember it since she had gotten really drunk. She had also managed to get kicked out of school for skipping classes and getting into fights. Then, in May she got herself pregnant. Twice! She cried every time she miscarried, as if it was a really bad thing for her to no longer be pregnant at the age of sixteen. Like I said before, Molly Olson is REALLY messed up.

Molly! How are you? You looking out for Sammy at school? We have to get together soon! I need to have a girls night with other singles. I'm tired of hearing about everyone's boyfriends when I'm now single again. talk to ya later!

I yawned and stretched my arms and wiggled my fingers to get the feeling back into them. Then I glanced over my list again. Raye, Trista, Mina, Kara, Ann and Jessica. Maybe I should have picked an easier task. Well, I had just seen Raye a few days ago, Trista lived practically next door... That left only Mina, Kara, Ann and Jessica. Well, Ann was kinda different now so maybe I could take her off the list too. I clicked on Mina's name.

Mina! Wassup Girl? How's college life so far? We should hang out again soon! Call me!

I hit SEND and then yawned again. I really didn't want to finish this e-mail list. I was already so bored with it and my hands were getting tired. I decided that now would be the perfect time to go to my fanfiction archives online at Arias Ink and Fanfiction.Net, my all time favorite sites. After reading through several of my favorite stories, it was noon. I heard the unmistakable sound of an instant message appearing on the screen.

Amara: Sere?

The Goddess of Temptation( me): Yep! You all by yourself over there?

Amara: Yep!

Amara: What did you wanna tell me?

The Goddess of Temptation: Can you keep a secret even if it's the most scandalous secret ever?

Amara: Yes! Serena just tell me already!

The Goddess of Temptation: Well, okay. but only because I HAVE to tell somebody or I'll explode! Brace yourself for this shocking news!

Amara: Serena, get to the point already!

The Goddess of Temptation: Fine. I went to Dad's this weekend.

Amara: O.O; What? When did this happen? Wait... that's not a scandal...what did you do?

The Goddess of Temptation: I'm getting to that! Well, Dad has been dating this woman named Danielle since I was eight and she has two kids around my age. There's Rachel, but she goes by the nickname Raye. She's sixteen and we used to be best friends before all the fights began. Then there's the other one, Darien. He's eighteen, unbelievably hot and we've been drawn to each other since the day we first met...

Amara: O.O; Serena you didn't...

The Goddess of Temptation: We did. Well, not all the way, but pretty damn close. I'd say we've done everything but *it*...

Amara: What do you mean by that Serena? What exactly did you two do?

The Goddess of Temptation: Like I said, if we took it any farther, I wouldn't be a virgin anymore and neither would he. To be honest...we would have continued but we didn't have any protection so we stopped and did something ELSE to get off.

Amara: You mean...?

The Goddess of Temptation: Yep! I've done 69 with Darien on his bed. It was amazing! I mean, he was amazing! I actually enjoyed it a lot and I can't wait to go back there again soon!

Amara: You're going BACK? Serena, has it occured to you that what you two are doing is WRONG? How long have you two had this secret affair? You probably don't wanna hear this but...what if you two get caught? This is WAY too complicated.

The Goddess of Temptation: How can it be wrong? Okay, so our parents are screwing each other, but it's really no more complicated than if you found someone and one of your parents decided to date one of her parents without realizing it. I feel things for him that I've never felt for anyone and it's been that way since we first met. He's the one ' Mara, I can feel it. And we're VERY careful about not getting caught.

Amara: How long has this been going on? Could it be possible that he's just using you? Does he even feel the same way?

The Goddess of Temptation: I seriously doubt that he would have been so sweet to me when I was eight just so he could have sex with me when I'm almost eighteen. I know he feels the same as me because it's in his kisses, his caresses, his gentle licking and nuzzling. He cares about me, Amara. I can feel it in my heart that he has felt this way for years.

Amara: Okay. I believe you Serena. This sounds like the real thing, I suggest you hold onto these feelings and write them out in your next romance novel. And I don't have to tell you to be careful?

The Goddess of Temptation: No. You don't. I'll be fine, don't worry.

Amara: I gotta go now Serena. I have to go clean the house before my parents get home.

The Goddess of Temptation: I don't have to worry about earning my right to stay home because I graduated on time!

Amara: Hey, I'll graduate THIS year. I'm back in school again next semester to finish off my credits and stuff.

The Goddess of Temptation: You were SUPPOSED to graduate in June of this year. Oh well. I told Sammy to harass you at school to ensure you stay in class.

Amara: I see...well, talk to ya later!

The Goddess of Temptation: Ciao!

I clicked off the instant message window and sighed. Amara warned me about a problem I had been aware of since third grade. Nevertheless, I had to keep her words in mind if I was going to pursue this relationship with Darien. At least until my father started cheating again or until Danielle left him and Darien got his own place.

***********

Temptress Kitten : Drops down to he knees and places hands in front of her clasped together. Has pleading look in her dark brown eyes: Please forgive me for not putting out this chapter sooner! I have been REALLY busy these past few days and my brother has rediscovered his love for the computer so I haven't had much time to type anything up! I'm hoping he'll get another game for his Gameboy Advance so that he'll once again devote all his time to it and ignore the computer's existence. I promise to get more chapters out soon! If you didn't figure it out, the dialogue that read like a script was the Instant Messenger conversation. The O.O; was one of those cool surprised faces with a sweatdrop, that's to inform any of you out there who like me, are normally out of touch with all the ' expressions' in e-mail and IMs. I learned a few from my friends and younger brother so I wouldn't be completely clueless as to what they were trying to say. Till next time!
