The Return
by: Eternal
The Ball (part I)
When the couples got there, they were amazed at the beauty of the ballroom. The ball room looked exactly like
a palace ball room. They entered and saw that they were top of the stairs looking down as if they were royality with
a red rug. French doors everywhere with mini candlelights on the walls next to them. Curtains picked up from
the side. Than there was a big chandelier hung on top of the dance floor. Behind the Dance floor there was a stage.
That's were the annoucements would take place. In each side there was an orchestra playing a lovely soft music.
The coordinators really did a heck of a job. Everything was decorated tastefully. They did a fine job on decorations.
The group was still standing on top of the stairs looking awed by the whole ballroom. They were taking in the lovely and
romantic atmosphere. As they were going down the stairs the men and women were staring at them. Especially Serena and
Darien. The girls envied Serena and the guys envied Darien. The girls admired Darien and the boys admired Serena.
Darien really didn't like the boys gawking at Serena and growled at them. Serena gasped in surprise as she felt Darien's
arm wrap around her waist posessively. Serena, Amy, and Rita were blushing madly at the attention. They hated it.
Darien smiled down at Serena's embarresment and shyness. Every girl and guy in the ball room were jealous, yet they
admitted that they made a very cute couple. The older people smiled at them warmly and knowingly. The group were also
receiving alot of attention. Raye, Mina, and Lita didn't mind it, they loved it. Amy, Rita, and Serena sweatdropped at
seeing the three waving and smiling at everyone. While they continued to walk, Serena, Darien, and Amy kept running into
collegues or co-workers saying their hello's and how are yous? and introduced to their group of friends. They kept walking
until they found Molly and Melvin saving their table.
"Hey! Look who's here?" Melvin looked up.
"Hey Sere! Darien! girls and guys!" Molly greeted cheerfully.
"Wow you guys look fantastic!" Molly continued
"Thanks" They all said together.
"Molly you look 'SO' beautiful tonight." Serena remarked
The girls and the guys nodded their head in agreement.
"Thanks." Molly blushed.
"Hey Melvin, how are you doing?" Darien asked.
"Very great tonight and you?" Melvin asked back.
"The same." Darien responded knowing what Melvin implied. He felt the same way about his future girl.
"Great" Serena announced enthusiastic.
The girls and guys shook their heads at Serena's enthusiasim. They were ready to sit when they heard:
"Serena! Amy! Molly! Darien! and Melvin!"
They all turned around and blinked. They saw Dr. Allen Bradshaw walking towards their way.
"Hey Allen, you're looking great this evening." Molly commented.
Allen grinned and said "Thanks" While grabbing Molly's hand and placed a kiss on it.
Meanwhile, he did the same to Serena and Amy;commenting each on how they looked.
"Serena, you look breathtaking this evening." He smiled warmly.
Darien definitely agreed and he would know.
Serena giggled. "Thank you, Allen"
"Just don't let my wife hear what I said to each of you or she'll kill me." He joked.
Everyone had to laugh. Allen was quite a character.
"Before, she hears you, let me introduce you to my close friends." Serena continued.
"This is Malachite, Mina, Jadeite, Raye, Nephilite, Lita and Zoicisite."
"Pleasure to meet you folks." Allen nodded friendly.
"Likewise" Malachite replied.
"Hey man, if you think your wife kills ya, wait til you get to know this one." Jadeite said nodding towards Raye.
"Hey! and don't doubt that I will do the same to you!" Raye exclaimed and smacked his arm.
"Ow!" Jadeite exclaimed rubbing his arm.
Everyone sweatdropped and Allen felt sympathy towards the poor guy.
"Here comes my wife Ann." Alan announced as he looked at his wife lovingly.
Everyone saw the love Alan had for his wife and had to smile at the happy couple. They could tell too that she was very
much in love with him as he with her.
"Hey sweety." She greeted as she encircled her arms with his.
"Hey honey, having fun?" He smiled at her.
"yeah. Oh I don't believe I know your friends here."
"of course. Let me introduce. This is Amy, Serena, Molly, Melvin and Darien my co-workers. Guys this is my lovely wife
Ann."
"Hi!" Ann greeted shaking everyone's hand friendly.
"And these are their friends Malachite, Mina, Jadeite, Raye, Nephilite, Lita and Zoicisite."
"Hello" She continued to shake everyone's friendly.
"Hi" each of them said and nodded her in greetings.
"well Ann and I should be heading back to our table. It was nice meeting you guys." He nodded toward the group and they
nodded back to the couple.
"Serena, Amy, and Molly always a pleasure. Gentlemen have a great evening." He said.
"Thank you. Same to you and your wife."
"Thank you."
Allen and Ann walked away. The group was finally able to sit down and enjoy the evening.
Mina started. "Oh what a charming couple. They really look they love each other. It's sweet."
Serena nodded. "I really liked Ann. She was so friendly."
"Yeah. the best part is that she seems like she's the one in control of the relationship." Raye added.
"Raye!" The girls exclaimed.
The guys just shook their heads and sweatdropped. *Typical Raye* they all thought at the same time.
------
The Dinner was fantastic. Serena and the gang couldn't enjoy a more perfect evening than they already have. They talked,
laughed, and shared stories. The food was delicious. It started out as ceasar salad, Than dinner which was steak with
mash potatoes and white rice, and desert which was served in a wine cup a chocolate musse with some fancy decoration on it.
Overall, everything was going smoothly. After desert was served, they saw one of the directors go up to the stage and take
the microphone. He was about to do the announcement. The older man spoke about the charity and what the cause was for.
He also announced that in an hour they will announce the amount they raised. After than he began the dance. People were
coupling up and going straight to the dance floor.
Darien turned to Serena only to see the want in her eyes.
"Serena"
"um?"
"would you like to dance?"
Serena turned her attention to Darien and she smiled happily at him. Her eyes really glowed of happiness.
"Yes, I would love to." She nodded happily.
He stood up and pulled her chair out and held out his hand to her. Serena gladly took his offered hand and stood up.
He pulled her chair in and held her hand and walked with her to the dance floor.
They started to waltz.
"I see you love to dance." Darien commented.
"oh yes, very much." Serena smiled.
"Not to ruin the moment, but how did you learn how to dance? I'm surprised my feet hasn't been stepped on." He joked.
"you really do know how to ruin a good moment, don't you?" Serena replied as she sweatdropped.
"To be honest, I went to an etiquette school and part of it was waltz dancing."
"You went to an etiquette school? When was this?" Darien asked shockingly.
*Whatever for, she didn't need it. She was graceful already.*
"In the middle of my high school days, when I was about 16. You know it was kind of fun, but the girls there were such
snobs. I didn't fit in." Serena stated sadly.
"Serena you didn't need to fit in with those snobs anyway. I know you are friendly and enthusiastic. You are very pure
hearted and its great. But not everyone gets along with everyone. Plus you don't need them. You have your own class and
that is much higher and valuable than money or society. Sere your kindness and heart is a class in itself and its a very
special class for special and great people. Don't ever change that." Darien spoke openly.
Serena looked up and smiled happily at Darien. Serena was touched by his words. It's like that took all the hurt and
pain she went through that school all away.
"Thank you"
Darien smiled.
"Anyway, the waltz dancing is really what helped me through the tough times at that school. It was also something that
I learned I was interested in." She continued
"So etiquette school wasn't what it cut out to be?"
"nope" Serena shook her head.
"so how did you learn? I'm sure even you aren't perfect enough to learn how to dance waltz by yourself." she joked.
"Hey what is that suppose to mean?"
"That in all the time I knew you, I always thought you were perfect. Your smartness, Your grades, The way you spoke and
move, and the confidence it was like there was never fault in you except your smart mouth towards me."
"did I say how sorry I am for how immature I acted?"
Serena giggled.
"That's alright it was a thing of the past." Serena waved it away as if it was nothing.
"Your amazing, you know that?"
Serena rose an eyebrow.
"How so?
"you just are"
"Well'i'm glad you think so." Serena blinked.
Darien smiled tenderly at her.
"So going back to the original question. How did you learn how to waltz?"
"Well, I hate to admit this but I went to take ball room dancing."
Serena tilted her head to the side asking has as if he actually volunteered.
and giggled.
"I'm sorry but you don't seem to be the type to volunteer to such things."
"I'm not, but I had to for these social events for the hospital. Afterall I am the CEO I can't skip events."
"I suppose thats true, but don't worry Darien I won't tell anyone your true feelings about ballroom dancing. I know you
love it, so it'll stay with me til the grave." Serena joked.
Darien playfully narrowed his eyes and growled at her.
"Serena."
"yes." Serena replied calmly.
"You do know, you're going to pay for that."
"Oh yeah, how?" she asked boldly.
"by doing this."
Darien twirled Serena around and dipped her. Than lifter her back up to his arms and took a look at her drowning blue eyes.
He smirked and started to tickle her. Serena was trying 'VERY' hard to contain her laughter.
"Dar..hehe..ien...hehe we're..heheh...in..hehe a formal..hehe setting." Serena said in between giggles.
"say sorry and I'll stop." he grinned.
"sorr...y..hehe" She was ready to start to laugh uncontrollably when Darien stopped tickling her and continued to lead her
in the dance floor.
Serena pouted.
*She's so funny* he thought.
"aww..come on now meatball head cheer up!"
"Hmph"
"Please with a cherry on top." he pleaded jokingly.
"aww alright. Its not fair you know my weakness and I have yet to know yours."
"I thought that was quite obvious." He looked at her seriously.
Serena looked down shyly and blushed. Darien and Serena just kept on Dancing happily in each other's arms.
The others looked at them happily and commented with their partners.
