Disclaimer: Hey, hey ya'll! I think I'm going to put a disclaimer in every other chapter, or something like that. So here it goes, I don't own Sailor Moon… (Says like talking to a child) Ok so maybe you guys aren't *that* slow… but I am! ::grins::
Chap. 3: Dinner, Invitation, And A Few Love Connections
But right now Darien's P.O.V.
**********************************************************
We pulled up to the Anderson's house at about six o'clock. I was wearing black slacks and a dark blue shirt that brought out the color of my eyes. Or so people keep telling me.
My mom knocked on the door and I stood slightly behind her. Serena's mom answered the door, and hugged my mom. I shook her hand politely, and then followed her inside.
"Oh, where is that daughter of mine," she mumbled as we followed her into the dining room. "I'll be just a moment," she said exiting. "Serena!" she called up the stairs.
"Just a minute mom!" Serena yelled back down.
'Well I can't wait to see what Serena is wearing. Some nice jeans with holes cut in the knees?' I thought to myself, smirking. What I didn't expect was for her to come down in a dress.
She walked, or more like floated into the dining room. The dress looked to be satin. And the dress was a light pink, that went to mid-thigh, and was spaghetti straps. Around her neck was a pink and yellowish butterfly necklace with a silver chain, and on her wrist was a charm bracelet with a heart, crown, teardrop, and a rose charm on it. (Not that I was looking that close or anything…) She had on light pink shoes to match her dress. And her hair was down in soft curls, reaching almost to her knees, with her bangs curled around her face. She wore a minimal amount of makeup, a sweep of yellow/goldish eye shadow and clear lip gloss.
All I could do was stare. She looked gorgeous. But not even that word described her. Magnificent was more like it.
"Well it's nice to see you too Darien," she said smirking at me.
'Oops, caught in the act,' I thought to myself, blushing slightly.
"You look as beautiful as always," I said to Serena, trying to play it cool.
"Oh stuff it," she said.
"Serenity…" her mom said in a warning tone.
"I mean thank you!" she said *way* to much enthusiasm. "And you are looking very stylish yourself."
"I don't think they will ever grow up," Serena's mom said to mine.
"I agree," my mom answered.
"MOM!" we yelled in unison.
"See what I mean," Mary sighed. (Serena's mom's name)
(Serena's P.O.V.)
There was only one word to describe Darien at that moment, HOT. And I mean steaming. His shirt really brought out the color in his eyes. I never thought I'd live to see the day I would fall for my archenemy.
'Boy am I glad I wore this dress,' I thought to myself, as I caught him staring.
"Well it's nice to see you too Darien," I said sarcastically.
He had the decency to blush, when I caught him looking.
"You look as beautiful as always," Darien said.
"Oh stuff it," I said disgustedly.
"Serenity…" my mom said. I knew not to argue with her when she used my full name, and in that voice.
"I mean thank you!" I said sweetly, too sweetly. "And you are looking very stylish yourself."
"I don't think they will ever grow up," my mom said rolling her eyes.
"I agree," Lynn, Darien's mom, said.
"MOM!" we said at the same time.
"See what I mean," my mom said sighing, while waving her hands at us.
********
Lucky for me I got to sit next to Darien for dinner. Though it wasn't so bad. He was sweet, and kept me laughing through out the whole meal. After we had desert I got the privilege to wash the dishes. Darien offered to help, so after the adults were gone, we started clearing off the table.
"Sooo…?" he asked while picking up the cups.
"So what?" I questioned back, looking up at him expectantly.
"So, was eating dinner with me so bad shortie?" he asked smirking.
"No, I guess it wasn't. And since it wasn't so bad, I'll
let that shortie slide," I said indignantly.
"Oh short one, you are a saint," he said mockingly while walking into the kitchen.
"You're pushing it," I said sternly, following him to the sink. I put the dishes into the sink, turned on the water then added soap.
"I know… so listen-" he said, when I interrupted him.
"It's not like I have anything *better* to listen to."
"But why would you want to listen to anything else, when you could hear my strong, masculine, silky, smooth-"
"Ok, shut up. What was it you were going to say?"
"Well I was wondering, if you'd want to head out to the beach with me and the guys," he said, as I turned off the water.
"You mean the rest of the fearsome five?" I asked, raising and eyebrow.
"Exactly," he said smiling.
"Only if I can bring two of my friends."
"You have friends?" he asked sarcastically. Before I could hit his arm, he ducked out of the way, then said "Hey, I'm just kidding. Which two?"
"Rei Moore and Mina Davis."
"Yeah sure, whatever suits you," he said smiling, as I handed him a dish to dry.
"And just what are you smiling about?" I asked.
"Well… don't you think it would be fun, to try and get your friends paired up with mine?"
"Which two of your friends?"
"The only ones that are available," he said slowing, as if
talking to a kid in pre-school.
"Yes, I know that. But which two are they?" I asked exasperated.
"OH! Chad and Andrew."
"Would you promise not to tell anyone, if I told you something right now?" I asked quietly.
"Sure," he answered just as quietly.
"My friends already like your friends. Rei likes Chad, and Mina likes Andrew," I stated, still whispering.
"Well, that works out pretty well doesn't it?" he asked, giving me his one million dollar to die for smile.
"Yeah, I guess it does," I answered, giving a slight smile.
"So Serenity,"
"Ok, now you're really pushing it!" I yelled as I threw soapy water and bubbles at him.
He threw some back at me, and it started into an all out soapy water/bubble fight. Our mom's found us like this, and reprimanded us about acting like kids.
We had both said sorry, and as soon as they left, we finished drying the dishes, and cleaned up the kitchen.
When it was time for them to leave, I walked Darien and his mom to the door.
"I'll be out in a minute mom," Darien said to him mom.
"All right sweetie," she said walking out.
"So I'll pick you and your friends up at 10 tomorrow ok?" he asked, looking at me.
"Sure. We'll see ya then," I said smiling at him, as he walked down the steps, and to his car, where Lynn was waiting.
(Darien's P.O.V.)
'Yes!' I thought silently to myself, while walking down the steps, to the car.
I opened the door, and hopped into the car, then turned to the window, and waved good-bye to Serena, as we pulled out of the drive way. She smiled and waved back, then walked back inside. 'Ah… life couldn't get any better. Well maybe it could…' I thought to myself as I looked out the window, imagining a life, where Serena and I lived peacefully together.
(Serena's P.O.V.)
As soon as Darien left, I walked back inside, and called Mina and Rei, and told them to meet me at my house at 9:30, to go to the beach. And Mina, being the blonde she is, asked a.m. or p.m.
While I'm on the subject of them, I'll go ahead and tell you what they looked like.
Rei has crow black hair, and deep indigo eyes. She stands at a height of 5'8". And Mina has light blonde hair, with turquoise eyes, and is 5'7".
'Well time to get some sleep, I have a big day tomorrow.' And that was my last thought before I drifted off into a dreamless sleep.
