Chapter 7

*Lita*

The Tie mansion was breath taking. There was a welcome sign out front. Boys and girls were running to the door hoping to get a better view of the inside of the house. Once entering the mansion there were signs boys to the left and girls to the right.

Our rooms were huge. There were 8 beds in ever room girls. There were the five of us puls Molly, and a few others from school. We all had our own beds and dressers; the closet was as big as my bedroom in my apartment. The place was a soft red, I'm sure Raye was happy. No one wanted the bed by the window so I took it. There was a seat to one side of the window and it opened onto a balcony. Below were the rose gardens. "This so cool!!!"

"Lita, lets explore the mansion." Mina and Serena were jumping up and down excitedly. They had just finished unpacking.

"All right, you two start with out me I'll catch up." The other two other girls, I did not know, in our room started to get ready for the mask ball. Hey they had what. 12 hours until? I'll never understand those kinds of girls. Amy and Raye both went looking about and exploring. Molly ran off to find Melvin. I decide I'd look at the gardens.

I walked thought the sunflowers first, and in no time I found the window to my room below the roses. There was a fountain I couldn't see from my window. The fountain was beautiful. There was a lady in the middle holding a basket of flowers, a rose was in her hand pressed close to her chest. The waster came out of that roses and trickled down her dress.

"Beautiful isn't it?" I jumped at the voice.

"Yes it is." I replied turning around to see."Darien?!!"

"In the flesh."

"What are you doing here?"

"Chaperoning." He smiled. "Don't tell Serena."

"Why?"

"I'm going to surprise her."

"Oh do tell." I said evilly as I sat on the edge of the fountain.

"Well, I'm going to be her secret mansion love." He smiled at his plan.

"How?"

"Oh dear Lita, you shall soon see." Darien then pulled out a note and a rose. "Could you put this in Serena's left shoe?"

"Her left shoe?" I asked

"Yes left." He handed me the note and the rose.

"You two are way to complicating for me to understand."

"I thank you for that." Darien then slipped off and dispread in to the roses. I shook my head at the two f them.

*So in love, but so out of it.* I walked back to my room and placed the note and rose in Serena's LEFT shoe. I'll never know why. I then took out the mask I bought. It was a plane black mask that I was going to decorate and make it sparkle. I took the jewels and glitter some feathers and made the mask my own. I had to cut it here and there to make I fit my face.

Then I remembered the fountain in the garden. The lady was so pretty; *I wish I could look like her. Why not?*

I ran down to the garden with paper and a pencil in hand. I quickly wrote down what I saw. Her hair was down and long a bit wavy like mine. Her dress was long simple no frills, but it hugged her upper body nicely. The basket just above her knees she had no shoes either. After I got all my notes I went to get ready.

The mask I had decided to make it blend in with my own face. I painted it with a color that was close to my skin. Then I took sliver jewels and placed them in a V on the forehead. I then placed the mask upon my face, my eyes looked way to small (AN: she's a normal person.. She looks like you!!). So I painted eyes, my eyes, on the mask. When I put it on again, my eyes were bigger just the way I wanted them. When I had finished, I hid the mask and cleaned up. The girls were due any minute now.

"Lita!!"

"Lita!!!" I heard Mina and Serena yelled running down the hall.

"What?" I asked when the arrived in the room.

"We have something to show you." Said Serena as she grabbed my hand and Mina the other one.

"Where are we going?" I asked letting them pull me.

"Some place you will just love." Said Mina

"But I was already in the gardens." I replied

"No this is a different place," said Serena. Mina and Serena led me down a hall then we took stars that were one-person only steps. Then down another hall and then to my surprise behind a picture and down more stars. Then we stopped in fount of a huge door. I could smell the food being made. Without hesitating I opened the doors and stepped in.

One chef was yelling out orders, others were trying to listen the whole kitchen was in chaos. I grabbed an apron and a chef hat. Then I asked the closest person to me what was going on.

"The chef is mad someone messed up the ordure's and now her has nothing to serve, but grilled cheeses sandwiches." Came the reply from the scarred cook.

I grabbed him by the shoulders and looked at the tear stained man, "Where is the dry storage?"

I followed him to a corner. I grabbed a cart and whatever I would need to make some thing speculator for everyone to eat. A few others saw me and some got the idea, while a few of them distracted the Chef while I worked in the background, saving his and everyone else butt. I asked questions every now and then like: 'how many people?" and "can you get me this?" more of the cooks lessened to me as I whispered orders. With in only three hours I had made 13 different ordure's, 5 cakes, 12 dozen brownies, 15 different kinds cookies, fruit salad and it was enough to feed everone in the mansion, pulse. Then with a lot of help I slipped through the kitchen doors without the Chef seeing me.

"Lita, come on you only have 3 hours to get ready." Said Mina as I slipped thought the door she had curlers in her hair, and a facemask on.

*Only three hours?* I grabbed my bathroom bag and hopped in the shower. From the kitchen to this I was a mess. And I'm sure I made a flower track along the hallway to this room. "I'm in the shower. If I'm not ready in time go with out me." I yelled as I ran onto the bathroom. I stepped out of the shower cleaned, I pulled on my slip and grabbed the blow direr. I brushed out my hair as I pulled the dress I would wear to the mask ball.

When I was on my way to the bus stop to come her I saw the most stunning dress. It was a pastel green. I tried it on and decide to wear this on to the mask ball instead of the other one the girls pick out for me. This dress had no shoes so it was perfect for this night. When I was ready, I was alone in the room. I placed my mask on my face and left to attended to ball. Grabbing my baskets of flowers on the way.

*Nephrite*

I was having so much fun. I danced with as many girls as I could. I laughed with some of the boys. I met three of them who I though I knew, but in the end I didn't. I was talking to one of the boys I had met who went by, Max. Then a blond came up and asked him to dance. Even with the mask on she still knew who he was, and he knew who she was, for he kissed her and excused himself. I was just about to get a drink when she walked in, the lady from the fountain. I could see the fountain from my room. I only wished I could get a closer look at it, she looked so sad.

*Lita*

As I entered the ballroom my heart stopped. There were lavenders and daisies all around the room. It was all purple and white. It took my breath away, and for a moment I forgot where I was. Unit l saw him.

He was talking to Max and then Mina came and stole Max away from the handsome man. I was so glad, but then he looked at me. My heart stopped. *What do I do?* I thought to myself. I stood my ground frozen and unable to think of what to do.

*Nephrite*

I was just staring at her when a hand waived in front of my face. "Hey Neph," the hand waived again. I blinked and looked at the hand, it was Lilly's. "Neph, Neph are you alright?"

"Oh um ya I think so." I looked back to where I was the vision of beauty again. A man in a red cape was handing her a rose.

"Go talk to her." Came Lilly's voice from mo where.

"Go talk to her for me." I said still staring "I want to know if that man is her beau."

"Sure thing." Lilly skipped off to find out about the girl. I watched from where I was. She laugh at something that was said then pointed to me. I felt myself blush. Then the girl laughed as well. I wanted to know what was going on, but didn't wasn't to ask. A few min, actually if felt like hours, Lilly came back. She was smiling. "Wanna know her name?"

"Sure," I tried to sound cool.

"Well she wouldn't tell me, but she did say. But her name for tonight is Unaftion it's pronounced Un aft ton. It's a strange name if you ask me." Said Lilly. "Oh and the boy that was her friend she has many here, but no one know who she is I asked around." I looked at her." Oh alright my sisters looked around."

"So what are my chances?"

"Well, she does think you are cute," Lilly then slipped off into the crowd.

"Lilly, no tear gas tonight."

"Oh havens no! We're going to do a pink cloud!!" She called back. Tat was so much better. If I got to know Unaftion, I could kiss her in the pink cloud and no one would remember anything. The pink cloud made one forget what happened 5 min. before it went off. It was the coolest thing ever. Only those who lived in the mansion would remember. I walked over to where she was standing hopping to get to know her. "Oh Neph, I forgot something, your name tonight is Osten."

"Osten? What's that mean?"

"Stone if you rearrange the letters, her's is fountain. Get it Stone Fountain." I rolled my eyes, but laugh at the names when they were put together. It was very clever. I would have never thought of it.

*Lita*

'Osten?' I kept on thinking. I still liked him, but who was the chick that came to talk to me? Must have been a friend.

"May I have this dance?" I turned to see one of the boys in school. He offered his hand and I took it. I danced with the boy, who had two left feet. Even though I was bear foot, I still kept my feet away from his. When the song ended he returned me to my place and found another to dance with.

"Unaftion, my I have this dance?"

I let out some air as I saw the man," Osten, you may." He took my arm and whorled me around the room. My feet I'm sure never touched the ground. We danced that first dance, and then we never stopped dancing. We also talked. I found out that we both lost people we loved. And we both have been kind- of trapped because of it. I loved his eyes and his mask hid what I wanted to see, but I was glad, for he never found my small eyes hidden underneath my mask.

"Unaftion, you are so beautiful. I feel like I know you."

"Oh but you do."

"No I don't, you wear no mask, and yet your name fist to so well, Fountain when the letter are put right."

"And you name. Stone? It's like when we're together we make a Stone Fountain."

"Stone Fountain," we said at the same time. He leaned in close and our lips touched. I felt myself go dizzy and longed for more. The kiss was short and sweet. It reminded me of something but I couldn't put my finger on it. Just then a cloud of pink smoke came from the center of the dance floor. He leaned in close and kissed me so deeply, I thought I'd forgotten where I was. 'I can't fall in love. I can't. I am Sailor Jupiter, I am here to protect Serenity the Princess and the queen of our future. I can't fall in LOVE.'

TBC.
