---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------------- Summer vacation went by with very little problems after that one monster. As hard as the group tried they could get no more information from Richie regarding his mission and eventually they gave up. Darien was still distant but slowly he rejoined the group and they spent time together as if nothing had happened but the whole group could feel the change.
Back at home Ken was praising his new work partner Damon and ever since the party he had insisted that Serena and he would make a good match. Serena hated these conversations and avoided them as much as possible. To add to the dilemma her own mother was adding to it by asking Serena to bring things to her father's office so she could by chance run into Damon. Serena was going nuts. For one, she couldn't get the guy out of her mind. The more she tried to avoid him the more she seemed to run into him all on her own. Even worse, she was falling for him. That connection that she had felt burst to life at the party was growing against her own will. At the same time she noticed Darien and her were even less connected as they used to be. Just a few days prior they had been training as usual she transformed and usually he could sense it. This time he didn't notice it as quickly and was even slower to respond to the mock monster Richie had set up for them. What was going on? Something was happening whether she liked it or not.
Damon was growing tired of all the reading. All the articles he could find on the Sailor Scouts were dated months ago except for that one occurrence at the mall. How was he going to find Serenity with no leads. Shutting down the computer in his apartment he leaned back in the chair and closed his eyes and there she was, Serena. Ever since the party he had been questioning his goals. How could he have let such a girl get to him? As if on cue to interrupt his thought laughter could be heard behind him. Very annoying laughter. "Hello Emerald."
"Your Highness. I came to see how you were doing." Damon got up from the chair and sure enough there was Emerald in her most flirtatious outfit. Didn't she get the clue that he wasn't interested?
"I am fine, I would be doing a lot better if I didn't have constant interruptions from you though."
"But D."
"Emerald I want you to go back and stay where I put you. You are jeopardizing the mission by coming here!" Damon clenched his fist in frustration. Women in general were annoying save for a few. Emerald sulked to herself before finally giving in and warping out of the apartment. She swore under her breath she would find out "who" it was this time!
Damon watched as Emerald disappeared and then grabbed his jacket. He needed to get out of the apartment. He didn't live too far from the big park and Damon just wandered around the grounds. How much had he missed growing up? There was no flora like this back home for him to see. This was one thing he would have to keep in mind for when he took over. Up ahead he could hear a group of teenagers laughing and he tried to go around them and avoid the stares when one laugh in particular caught his attention. Sure enough in the gaggle of girls he saw Serena. It seemed they were packing up and Damon found himself just watching in amusement. After about fifteen minutes of bickering and laughing they disbanded and he noticed that Serena was the only one that didn't leave the park immediately. As if his feet had a mind of their own he found himself following her into the small rose garden that was in the center of the park. He saw her sit at a bench and get lost in her thoughts it seemed because she was staring at something in her hands and just not paying attention to anything around her. That music was there again and this time he was sure he heard it and it was coming from her. Even when he walked up to her and the music became louder she didn't seem to notice him. Damon knew he was a lost man if she but looked at him. Thinking better of disturbing her he turned around to leave but that was when she noticed him and the look on her face nearly broke he heart. Her eyes were red rimmed with tears as she hastily tried to wipe them away. Damon couldn't leave even if he had wanted to. Instead of leaving he sat down next to her and to his surprise she accepted his hug.
"What's wrong Serena? Why are you so upset?"
"Nothing you would understand Damon. It just seems that fate is playing a cruel trick on me."
"Try me." Serena looked up into a very warm smile.
"Have you ever been attracted to two women at one time? And on top of that want to be with both of them but you could only choose one?"
"More than you know Serena. In a way I guess we are both stuck in the same boat. But if you need anyone to talk to about it you will always have a friend in me." Damon found the small tear stained smile almost irresistible and with out thinking lightly kissed Serena on the cheek which sent a bright blush to her face. "I don't think you want to be going home looking like that, I know your father. Would you like to go for a walk to clear things up?"
"Yeah, I would like that." Serena went to pick up her locket when Damon noticed it and took it first.
"What is this? It plays an interesting song, almost sad."
"That was a gift to me from a good friend. They said that it is called the Star Locket. Supposedly it is meant to play only for two people that are bonded together body and soul."
A playful grin replaced the serious mood that Damon had been showing. "If that is the case, hey you never know!"
Serena laughed it off and took back the locket but as they walked and got to know each other better she knew that was what she was afraid of the most. Darien was walking home from class when he noticed the couple walking from the gardens and he wouldn't have taken a second glance till he recognized the girl as Serena. Jelousy filled his mind as she watched them walk through the gardens, it should be him with her not that other guy.
