Chapter 5 – New York here I Come

Hi, fanx 2 da peeps hu did review it means a lot 2 me!! Here's chapter 5!!

Serena's p.o.v.

I'm heading for the airport right now! I spent the last two months getting to know Alex again, and spending as much time with my friends and family as I could, especially Molly! I haven't seen Darien for about a week, that's when he stopped coming to the arcade, well that's what Andrew says anyway! I cry over him every night, even though one part of me hates him for never giving me a chance, what he saw were just two friends hanging out after not seeing each other for three years! But oh no, he immediately thought I was cheating on him, like I would! Oh well, I guess it's time for me to make a fresh start, new friends, a new school, maybe I'll start to date other guys too! All I know is that I want to forget Darien Shields! New York Here I come!!

As I was walking up towards my boarding lounge I heard my name being called, I turned around!

"Oh my god!" I gasped as my five best friends ran up to me!

"Serena we couldn't let you go without saying bye one last time!" Cried Molly as she pulled me into a huge bear hug!

"We're going to miss you so much!" Sniffled Mina.

"You'd better write to us as often as you can you hear me? If you don't we're gonna come over there and get you!" Laughed Lita, as tears rolled down her cheek!

"Oh Guys, don't cry over me!" I said, as I started to cry myself! "You've been the best always, I'll write and visit whenever I can! And maybe you guys can come to New York for spring break?"

"Of course we will!" Cried Amy.

There was only one person who hadn't spoke, the person who was more like a sister to me than anybody else!

"Come here Meatball head!" She cried as I ran up to her and gave her the best hug I could!

"I'm gonna miss you guys so much!" I cried.

"Flight 212 To New York, America Now Boarding!"

"Well, I guess that's me, I love you all ok! Group hug!"

That was going to be the last group hug I had for a while!

Narrative p.o.v.

Serena boarded her plane, looking towards the future, and her new life as a dancer! No sailor moon, no moon princess and definitely no Darien!

Serena's p.o.v.

Oh my god, has my plane landed already?

"Could all passengers please get off the plane, we have landed, welcome to New York City!"

I guess that answers my question! Okay where do I go now? God, I wish I'd listened to the instructions my Dad gave me! Right, first I need to get off the plane!

I got off and went to pick my luggage up! Next stop, meeting Uncle Daniel and Aunt Rachel!

"SERENA!" I heard my name being shouted, I turned around and there in front of my eyes were my aunt and Uncle!

"Oh my you've grown so much!" Cried Aunt Rachel as they ran up to me!

"Welcome to New York Serena!" Said Uncle Daniel, "You'll love it here!"

"I sure hope so!" I replied as I followed them towards the car.

An Hour Later:

We had finally reached our destination, Aunt Rachel and Uncle Daniels, cool, New York apartment!

"Ooohh, it's just like friends!" I gasped as I noticed the coffee shop on which their apartment was in top of! "This is going to be so cool!"

Uncle Daniel just chuckled as he showed me the way to their apartment!

"Okay Serena, here's your room! You can unpack all your things in here," said Aunt Rachel, pointing to the closet, "and just make yourself at home!"

"Oh I will!" I replied as my aunt left the room and closed the door behind her!

I looked around at my new room, it wasn't as big as the one I had at home, but it wasn't exactly small either! The walls were lilac and the floor was wooden. There was a huge double bed in the middle against the wall, a nice sized desk in a corner, and a few lamps on the bedside tables and desk! On one wall there was a huge mirror! But... Oh My GOD! The mirror had a bar, which I could practise my dancing on! How did they know? I guess the fact that I got into a dance academy gave them a clue! Hehe! Anyway I think I'll unpack in the morning, right now I need some sleep I got serious jet lag!

Back In Japan

Darien's p.o.v.

Serena left for New York today! I've been such an idiot, how could I just let her go like that? Andrew kept telling me to talk to her, but did I listen NO! Now she's gonna meet someone else In New York and in ten years time she's gonna come back married with loads of kids... RINI! Oh no how could I let this happen?

I grabbed the phone and dialled Raye's cell number.

"Hello Raye speaking who is it?"

"Hi Raye it's Darien..."

"Oh, it's you!"

None of the scouts liked me very much at the moment!

"Yes it's me, look, did Serena's plane leave already?"

"Well dur, it left at nine o'clock this morning, she's probably in New York by now dufus!"

Ouch!!

"Oh, well if you ever get a contact number from her, could you give it to me?"

"Only if she wants me to!"

"You know Raye, I'm just trying to sort my life out!"

"Well you could have done that two months ago!"

She hung up! And the horrible thing about this was that she was right! She was so right! I've mucked up my chances of ever being with Serena!

I was going to find a way of getting to her! Even if none of her friends were going to help me!

New York

Serena's p.o.v

I woke up this morning, feeling great! I was finally in New York! And I didn't start at the academy for another six weeks, so I had plenty of time to settle in! Today I was going to find a job! Very unlike me, but I don't have my parents here anymore, so I have to get stuff myself!

I got dressed in a denim mini skirt and a white t-shirt that said I love NY on it (I got that at the airport with some of the money my Dad gave me!) I put on my new black leather boots, and picked up my red Dior bag! It was time to go job hunting!!

Lunchtime:

Great, I'd had four interviews and nothing! Either I wasn't smart enough, or didn't have the right qualifications! Oh my god a monkey could have done some of the jobs!! I guess I'd have to keep looking! But where could I go now? I KNOW! The coffee shop underneath the apartment!! That would be so cool, I'm gonna head there right now!!

I walked into the coffee shop to be greeted by Richard (he owns it).

"Well, well, well who are you young lady?" He asked politely, "I haven't seen you around before!"

"Oh hi! I'm Serena, I just moved upstairs with my aunt and uncle, Rachel and Daniel! I came here from Japan to go to college!"

"Really, that's interesting! But I have to say you're English is amazing!"

This guy seemed nice!

"Yeh, I've been learning it since I was four so, hey! But anyway, sir, I was wondering if you have any job offers going?" Please say yes, please say yes!!

"Well we don't usually take people in on such short notice, but, hey the more the merrier! When can you start?"

YES!!!!! GO ME!!

"Anytime, I could even start now!" I squealed, this was so exciting!

"How about tomorrow?"

"Sounds great, thank you so much for this, but I'd better get home, bye err..."

"It's Richard!" Said Richard with a smile!

"Bye Richard!"

That's it for now, keep reviewing if you wanna see Serena start at the academy in the next chapter!!!
