It was an hour before Darien had to pick up Serena. They had agreed on a 7:30 dinner. He couldn't believe it had been four days since he had seen her and she was still fresh in his mind. Darien was adjusting his tie as he looked down at his suit, he grinned to himself, tonight would be the night where he asked Serena out, the first part of the bet would be his by the end of tonight.
Serena was getting ready; she wore a dark blue spaghetti strapped velvet dress with a silver crescent at the hip. She had her hair up in a high ponytail, which she had curled all the strands so they cascaded all the way down her back like a golden waterfall. She wore simple silver hanging crescents with a matching necklace, which fell perfectly into the dip of her cleavage. Her friends were all in her room watching her get ready. "What if he was a small dick?" Mina asked. Amy sprayed some of her water on Serena's pink carpet, trying to hold in her laughter. Raye and Lita weren't that lucky, they were rolling on the floor in laughter. Serena turned around, her face red from embarrassment and laughter, she saw Mina trying to hold her grin. "Mina! What the hell kind of question is that?!" Mina shrugged. "Besides… I know it's not because when we were dancing I felt it." Raye stopped laughing and stared. "You what?! Your such a tramp!" She threw a pillow at Serena who blocked it. "Oh please I saw ALL of you dancing too!" All the girls turned red and nodded in defeat. As Serena was putting on her heels the doorbell rang. Serena looked to her friends and walked down the hall to the door.
Darien ran his hands through his hair anxiously, he had rang the bell and had heard a mumble so he waited, his jet black hair falling back into his eyes as the door opened and emerged was a goddess. He took in every aspect of her hungrily before his midnight eyes met her cerulean ones. "You look beautiful." She grinned, "You don't look to shabby either." He gave her a cute smirk. Shabby! I said that?! God I must sound like such a cornball! "Shall we?" She smiled and linked arms with him as they walked to his car. He opened the door for her, as she slid in, she could feel the leather on her thighs as her dress was starting to ride a little. Darien got into the car and started it; before he drove off he caught a peek at her creamy thighs. I could picture those wrapped around me all night long… hopefully I wont need a cold shower tonight if I keep my cool. Serena shifted in her seat wondering where they were headed she looked out the window, before she knew it they had arrived.
Darien opened Serena's hand and helped out getting a peek at those thighs again before dress fell below the knee. Serena looked around and noticed she was at the most expensive restaurant "El Corazón" or The Heart; he linked arms with her and proceeded inside. Darien walked up to the waiter and said "Reservation for two under Shields." The waiter nodded and Serena and Darien walked to the back and out onto a patio where their table was set up under the moonlight, rose vines could be seen engulfing the rafters. Serena's mouth was agape as Darien took her hands and led her to the table, pulled out her seat. She sat and he pushed her seat in and then sat down across from her, their knees almost touching underneath the table. She picked up a menu and looked through. Good thing I'm fluent in Spanish, or Darien would think I'm a complete moron. The waiter came over and took their orders. Serena was having a sirloin with rice and beans, and having potatoes and lobster.
After they had finished eating and talking, a violinist could be heard playing and before she knew it Darien was waltzing with her. She rests her head against his chest and danced with him. Darien closed his eyes and placed a soft kiss on her forehead and when the song ended they returned to the table for dessert. When Serena finished her strawberry shortcake and Darien clasped her hands in his and looked into her eyes. She couldn't help but melt as she stared into his. He smirked and now he knew it was the perfect time to ask. "Serena… would you like to be my girlfriend?"
