Darien just shrugged as he leaned back in his seat. "Beats me. How should I know?" She shrugged as well. "Where is the waiter? I'm hungry." Just then a person walked up to them with menus in their hand. Darien turned and saw a woman in her mid-thirties and smiled. She was a friend of his. What Serena saw however was... a princess. Her eyes got real wide. "Wow! A princess!" She squealed and lunged at her. "Hi!"
The woman looked down at her and smiled. She then sneaked a glance at Darien and winked. He frowned back. Serena sat back down and gazed at her. The 'princess' had on a shimmering gown with flowing black hair and a silver tiara. She handed them their menus and slowly moved away.
They both sat there quietly and studied their menu. Well maybe not Darien, he knew the menu by heart, what he was actually doing was staring at Serena while she wasn't looking. She was biting her lip, wondering exactly what to get. "Ummm. I think I'll get a hamburger and fries. Is that right?" She looked up at him and Darien hurriedly looked like he was looking at the menu. "Yup." She smiled. "Great." She set the menu down and sat back for the waiter to get back.
She then suddenly appeared in all her 'glory.' Serena smiled up at her. "I'll have a hamburger with lettuce and tomato and french fries. Oh and a chocolate shake. That's it." The 'princess' nodded and turned to Darien, who glanced at Serena, he then whispered, "The usual."
The waiter smiled and walked off. Darien leaned back in his chair. "So Serena. Can you tell me more of yourself?" She looked at him. "Name: Serena Tsukino, favorite color pink, favorite food chocolate, least favorite food carrots. I hate work and I love to read comics. That's all you're going to get right about now." She crossed her arms over her chest and closed her eyes to wait for the food.
Darien nodded and filed that away for later. Finally the food arrived. The food seemed like it floated but in 'reality' small fairies were carrying it. Six of them, three boys and three girls. They are glowing many different colors. Serena brightened at this. Darien chuckled. It was only two little children holding the tray over their heads. They set the tray down and scampered off, giggling.
Serena and Darien ate in silence instilled by Serena as she was to busy stuffing her face to get a word out. Darien watched with her brow raised and a smirk on his face. Man could this girl eat. He ate his special slowly, which consisted of his favorite foods that only this restaurant served and only to him and his friends. It was a special baked chicken that no one but the chef knew the recipe to, a unique vegetable that is only grown on Elysion, a chocolate smoothie, wild sweat and sour rice, and lastly the best dessert in the whole universe a mixture of chocolate, marshmallows, and something else that he didn't know what it was.
Serena finished first and some time later Darien finished as well. "Ahhh. That was good. I'm full." Darien nodded and smiled. He stood up and dropped a few coins on the table. Serena looked down at it. "Ummm.. Are you sure that's enough?" Darien laughed. "Of course, that's how our money is here. This is equal to about.. $150 on Earth." Serena eyes widened. "$150??? Wow." Darien just laughed and led her out of the restaurant.
They walked to Darien's mansion quietly. When the reached it Serena eyes widened. "This is your house?" he chuckled. "Yes it is." And so much more. He walked up the steps and unlocked the door, stepped back and waited for Serena to step in first. He closed the door behind him.
She gasps as she looked around the beautiful entryway. "Its lovely." She breathed. "Thank you" he whispered right by her ear. She jumped slightly. "I'll show you to your room." And he led her up the winding staircase to a room to the back of the mansion bathed in dim light because the peach colored sun that was close to Elysion and dim so that it couldn't be seen by Earth.
"Here is your room." He flicked the light one and turned it slightly and he smiled. Serena stepped in and gasped. The room was painted a slight pink color and accented in silver. She wandered around the room, her hands trailing over everything. "I love it." She whispered. Darien nodded. "I'm glad." He walked back to the door and pushed a button on the light switch to make sure that it stayed that way. "Good night Serena. Tomorrow we start to work." And he made to leave the room.
"Work! I'm a allergic to work just ask my friends. I break out in hives." She started jumping up and down. "Sorry Serena but you have to do something. Thrust me. I think you'll like it." "Last time I heard that I nearly di.." and she covers her mouth. "What was that?" "Nothing" "Ok. Night." And he left her alone in her room, quietly shutting the door.
Serena searched around the room until she found something to wear. She put on a peach nightgown that she found in a dresser on the far wall. "Man I'm tired." She got in bed. "Sleep. need sle-. Ouch" She shot up and held her head. She undid her hair and her broach fell into her hands. "Oh I forgot all about my broach." She held it close to her and didn't realize she fell asleep.
