Chapter: 5
Summary: Everyone believes Raye is the Moon Princess they have been searching for. Darien's true identity is revealed as being the Prince of Earth. Will Serena's true form appear before it's too late?
The Spring Ball! Yes, it was here and Raye, Serena, Amy, Lita and Mina weren't planning on missing it for the world! They hadn't lost hope although four of them were still dateless!
"That is so unfair!" Serena sighed, "Raye gets to go out with the hottest guy around and we still don't even have a date!"
Raye looked at her, "I never knew you thought he was hot!"
Serena sighed, "Well, yes I hate his guts but I've discovered that no good comes in denying the facts. And in this case the facts are that more than half the population here want to kiss him senseless!" Including me, she added silently.
"Oh yeah," Raye moaned putting on a frown, "I'm gonna have so much competition at the Ball. Most of the girls are so pretty, I'd probably look like a beggar compared to them."
Lita banged her head against the table, "Raye you're fine, and you are so bloody beautiful. You and Darien are so much alike, sometimes I bet people mistake you for brother and sister!"
"Jeez, that makes me feel so much better!" Raye groaned getting even more worried than before.
"Lita hasn't a clue what she's saying," Amy decided to explain, "What I think is that although they might find him cute they usually stay out of his way unless they want their ego to be totally deflated."
"I'm gonna get my ego deflated as well that way! They might not wanna talk to him so they think, oh yeah there's the girl that's going out with him, come on let's tell her the truth 'bout the way she looks."
"You look gorgeous!" Serena put in, "Trust me."
Just then a dozen heads swivelled as the arcade doors opened and in stepped … guess whom!
Raye hit her head loudly on the table, "Look at the way they act when they see him in the arcade of all places, imagine what it'll be like with more than a hundred people around."
Wearing a beige leather jacket, and loose blue jeans, this time Darien held an air of innocence as well as looking wonderfully desirable. Serena took a sharp intake of breath before letting it out slowly. Jerk!
He walked over to their table, seemingly oblivious of the stares he was receiving, but they all understood that it was only an act. Of course, he'd have to be blind not to notice, after all.
Kissing Raye gently on the lips, he greeted each of them in turn.
"And how's my Meatball Headed Goddess?" he asked turning towards Serena.
Raye laughed lightly, "Awwww, isn't he sweet!"
"Oh Jerk-Off! Is it impossible for me to even have a sundae in peace?" she muttered giving him a withering look. Yup, she wanted to kiss him bad, but when he'd kissed Raye before even saying 'Hi!' it had set off a horrible feeling in the pit of her stomach. Yes, she was jealous, extremely jealous and she was sure that IF she ever got him on his own, she was gonna strangle him, hard yet slowly.
"Mm, I should've guessed, eating as usual!"
"You got a problem with that?" she asked sticking her tongue out at him.
"Yes I have actually!" with that he grabbed her sundae and gulped down most of the contents.
Serena snatched it back from him and then pulled on a pout as she saw that it was almost empty, "That's so evil, depriving a little girl off her sundae! How mean!" She pulled on a puppy dog eye look!
Darien sighed, God she looked cute, if only he could get her alone for a while. That kiss with Raye sure had brought out the desired effect from her. "I'll get you another drink if you want?" he then put on a look of innocence, teasing her, "Only if you promise to share."
Serena groaned, "Half-half!"
"Deal! You coming with me or are you planning on waiting here then pigging out?" he asked as he lifted himself off the stool.
Serena quickly jumped off as well; "I'll choose the flavour!"
Darien gave her a grin, "I vote for strawberry!"
Serena blushed, remembering how he had told her that she tasted a lot like strawberries, "Whatever," she muttered as she followed him out the booth.
After they left, Raye suddenly turned onto the girls, "Ok, was it just me or was that a little too freaky?"
"I never even knew Darien liked sundaes!" Amy commented.
"And what's with the sharing? Serena doesn't even share with me, and she decided to share a sundae of all things with Darien, formally known as her worst enemy!" Lita spat.
"Ok, something is going on! Mina say something!" Raye nearly screamed.
Mina sat silently, "What do you expect me to say?"
"What do you think of this whole situation?" Lita asked.
"I don't know to be honest," Amy's glasses nearly fell off her nose as she heard the words that Mina had just said.
"You don't know?" Amy asked just to be sure that her hearing was all right. Since when had Mina stopped putting in comments to every situation?
"I said I dunno already, listen the first time will ya!"
"What's up your ass?" Lita exclaimed.
"Nothing, just in a weird mood!"
Just then two figures approached the booth, looking up Raye discovered a flushed Serena and Darien looking slightly flustered. "What happened to you two?" she asked.
"Um … Serena kinda tripped on the way back to the booth," Darien muttered.
Serena gave him a sharp glance, "Yeah, another one of my klutz attack!"
Mina looked at her quizzically, "You all right then Serena?" she asked.
"Yup, I'm all right thanks for asking," she took her place back on the seat next to Mina. Darien sat opposite her.
"Hey Dar, we were just talking 'bout the Spring Ball, remember you asked me if I'd go with you last night?"
"Yeah, you thought anything 'bout it then?" he asked risking a look at Serena who was sorting her hair out since it had somehow gotten dishevelled with their heated making out session. He kissed her senseless just after she called him a First Class Tease and the Biggest Jerk in the History of Mankind. Where she learnt that sort of stuff he'd never know.
"Yup, me and the girls have already been shopping for the dresses, they're lovely," she said excitedly.
"Nice, can't wait to see what you look like in it then."
"Yeah, I can't wait to show you. We were just talking 'bout our dates. Greg asked Amy out but she's not too sure since she doesn't 'know much 'bout him', Lita wants to go with Ken but it seems like he already has a date although he did kiss her in the cinema, Andrew asked Mina but she refused on the spot, poor guy. And I'm obviously going with you!" she finished.
"What 'bout Serena, no date?"
Serena looked up, "That Diamond guy asked and I said I'd think 'bout it."
"What, how come you never told us?" Lita demanded.
"What was there to tell? I thought I was gonna say no but I might take him up for the offer," she answered giving a shrug. "So if he hasn't already asked anyone else, I might as well say yes."
"You're gonna say yes to Diamond?" Darien asked in a neutral voice.
"Yes."
"Why?"
"Well, I don't hear anyone else complaining so what's your problem?" she asked testing his limits.
"I don't have a problem, just like to tell you though, be careful around him."
She looked at him then said; "I can look after myself, but thanks for the advice all the same."
"Let's change the subject," Mina purposefully butted in, "So who reckons I should say yes to Andrew?"
"Mina, not you as well! Oh well, if you really wanna go with him I recommend you say yes really quickly. He's cute, nice and single and right now those type of guys are going at a pretty fast pace," Serena added gloomily.
"Meaning?" Raye decided to ask.
"Meaning say yes!" Serena answered.
"I dunno, I guess-" Serena decided to butt in.
"I'd love to stay and chat 'bout your very interesting love lives, considering I don't even have one. But I've gotta urgent call home, so I best get moving or else my mom's never gonna let me socialize again, so see ya!" she finished of hurriedly, not waiting for the others to say goodbye.
That night
"Mom I'm going to bed now, if I'm allowed to!" Serena shouted down the stairs with a scowl on her face.
"Yeah, sure you can go to bed, you've done the dishes right?" her Mom shouted back.
"Yes, and Sam's been watching television the whole time after he had his dinner. I think he's going to bed at midnight again."
"Oh good, I hope you've made sure he's comfortable," her Mom added as she stood at the bottom of the stairs.
Serena scowled again, why was it that some mothers always favoured the boys instead of the girls? I mean they are much more useful than guys' right? But they always get stuck with the crappy jobs. "Yes Mom," she said politely as she headed for her bedroom.
She shut the door softly behind her, not wanting to make a scene. Sometimes her parents really did annoy her!
Changing into her light blue pyjama top, she settled on her bed.
She recalled the events of the days that had followed, and she'd come home to all of this instead of having a fun day with her friends.
Too lost in her thoughts, she was startled with she heard tapping on her window. Opening her eyes wide, she was surprised to see Darien standing on the tree outside her window. Getting up, she proceeded to open the window for him.
"Darien what the hell are you doing here?" she asked, letting him in.
He gave a sheepish grin, "Just passing through the neighbourhood. Thought I'd drop in," he said shrugging.
"Oh, so you were passing by, and you thought, oh why not go climb through Serena's window and say hi. Haven't you heard of the door dim wit!" she scowled.
He sat down at the bottom of her bed and turned to her, "Tell me something. Were you worried 'bout me falling off the tree or was it that you didn't want anyone to catch a cute guy like me stuck in a tree outside YOUR window?"
"Let's just say both, now tell me, what's the big idea?" she ordered.
"Can't I just say I missed you?" he said innocently.
"No you can't. Now tell me the real reason, or else I'm gonna push you out my god damned window!" she bit out through her teeth.
"Ouch! Isn't that a little harsh?" he said, looking slightly hurt.
Serena moved up to sit next to him. "I'm sorry," she apologized, taking his hand in hers. "Just in a weird mood that's all," she shrugged.
"Anything I can do to help?" he asked, turning her face towards his.
She gave him a thankful smile, "Thanks for asking but no thanks."
He wrapped his arms around her waist and pulled her in for a hug. "I'll always be there for you, if you need to talk."
"Thanks Darien, that means a lot to me."
"Anytime sweetheart," then he shifted his body, "Now, don't I even get a hello kiss?" he teased lightly moving his lips towards hers.
His lips settled gently atop hers kissing her softly, slowly releasing some of her tension. She kissed him back, harder than she intended to. Their kisses grew more heated as Darien's hand descended underneath her top; he stopped as it got to her breast line. Still kissing her, he nudged her lips, asking for permission. In answer, she placed her hand on top of his, leading him upwards.
Between them they threw off her top, and she slowly shucked out of her bra. Before he continued, he looked up at her again. Looking at her glazed eyes, he knew she wanted this as much as him. He bit into her neck gently, sucking on it. Serena moaned in slight pain, Darien licked her throat, looking at his mark. She belonged to him now, only him, Diamond wasn't coming anywhere near her.
Before continuing, Darien began to remove his own shirt, but his hands were pushed away as Serena quickly unbuttoned them, running her hands across his chest and kissing it lovingly.
"We shouldn't be doing this you know. If my Mom catches you in here with me, we're both history," Serena murmured as Darien and her settled on her bed, Darien on top.
Darien gave her a long, passionate kiss, "I thought as much, but you know what?" he continued kissing her.
"What?"
"Even if I wanted to, I couldn't stop now," he said, pulling her underwear just above her knees. He moved his hand lower, but stopped when Serena set her hand on his.
"We haven't got any condoms," she said, looking worried.
Darien cursed, looking in his pockets for his wallet. Pulling it out, he pulled out a whole string of condoms, placing one on him; he threw the rest of them on the floor continuing with where he had left off.
And the rest of it is their business!
3 hours late
Serena yawned as she began to stir, that had been wonderful. A little painful at first but when she'd gotten used to it, she'd enjoyed it a lot. But she was still really sore from the aftermath. Looking down at the man lying beneath her, she marvelled at his beauty, his charisma and his charm, any woman's dream! Although she couldn't remember how she'd ended up on top of him!
A smile appeared on her face as she looked at Darien slowly opening his eyes, his beautiful midnight blue eyes. She could see the world in them.
"Morning sunshine," he whispered, as he kissed her tenderly. Serena giggled and rolled off him, moving as far as she could. They'd had sex for like 20 times, Darien usually falling off the bed in search for the condoms, which seemed to be ending up on the floor.
Darien growled as he grabbed for her, she was like a drug to him now, he just couldn't get enough of her. Serena lightly jumped off the bed, the sheet wrapped around her. But oblivious to her, the sheet was made out of a light material and Darien could make out her perfect body, which he wanted to ravage this instance. Serena suddenly stood stock-still.
She sat down on the bed next to Darien. "Darien, how come you had condoms in your wallet?" she asked, worried as to what the answer would be.
"Well, you see. Raye and me had been talking 'bout taking our relationship further, so we thought maybe we could make it stronger by being as close as we possibly could," he shrugged, "But I guess that didn't work, coz now I don't ever wanna go back to Raye again."
Tears sprang to her eyes, "So does that mean you've slept together?"
"Hey no, we only had this conversation today. We were maybe gonna try it tomorrow after the dance, but I'm sure of one thing now," he said enveloping her in a hug, "I could never do this with Raye."
"Why?"
He looked at her face, running his hand along her cheeks, her lips, "Coz I don't think there's anyone that's better than you, coz I find you adorable, coz I think you're really sexy, coz I think I'm falling for you, anymore?"
Serena laughed, "That should be enough."
"So what do you like 'bout me then?" he asked carelessly running his hand down her body.
"Let's see, as you might already know, I love your big headedness. You're sexy, and sweet, considerate and beautiful!" she said kissing him after every compliment.
"You have a habit of calling me beautiful don't you?"
"I think you are, you're just perfect."
"You're perfect, so does that mean I can call you handsome?" he asked but a smile began to tug on his lips.
Serena hit him hard with a pillow, which made him yelp. She quickly placed her hand on his lips, trying to silence him as tears entered his eyes. She looked at him guiltily although she knew he was just putting it on. She removed her hand off his mouth placing her lips there instead. Darien rolled over with Serena at the bottom as the sheet covering them fell away.
1 hour later
Darien quickly pulled his sneakers on, as he tried to climb out the window at the same time. It was 5 in the morning and if he didn't get out soon, Serena's parents would surely throw a fit and he needed some time to recover from their playtime fun. Turning around he gave a sleepy looking Serena a long full kiss on the lips before heading out, but before he made it all the way out, a package on the windowsill caught his eye. Remembering what it was, he picked it up and turned back to Serena again, standing innocently clad in the white sheet. Pulling out the jewellery box from inside the brown paper bag, he opened it and held it out to her.
Serena smiled at his sweet gesture but what she saw in the jewellery box make her breath catch in her throat. Inside it was a beautiful necklace, with the earth and the moon connected together, around a gold chain.
"It's beautiful," she murmured, mesmerized by it's beauty, "I'm sure Raye would love it."
"Who said it was for Raye?" he asked, jumping off the sill once again to enter her bedroom.
"It's not?" she asked surprised.
"Nope."
"Who's it for then?"
"It's for you," he answered simply, leading her towards the tall mirror in her room.
"For me?"
"That's what I said wasn't it?"
"But shouldn't you be getting this sort of stuff for Raye?"
"Well, I did get her something," he said scratching his head in a guilty manner.
"That's really sweet, mind if I take a look?"
"In a minute, I want you to try this on first," he gently removed the necklace from its box and put it round her neck.
Serena ran a hand along it, loving the feel of it around her neck.
Darien kissed her collarbone then wrapped his arms round her waist. In his hand was another gold necklace. This one held a meditation book. Serena laughed, turning around in his arms.
"Very romantic."
Darien gave a soft smile, "This is the sort of stuff she likes though right?"
"Yeah, it's really sweet. I'm sure she'll like it."
"Too bad if she doesn't, but I'm glad you like this. You'll wear this for me at the ball tomorrow won't you?"
"Of course I will."
"You still gonna go with Diamond?" he asked, trying to look distracted.
"Nope, me and the other girls have decided that we'll keep up tradition and go dateless as usual!"
Darien laughed, "Save me a dance?"
"I'd say that to you actually. But I'm sure you'll be too busy with Raye," she put on a pout.
"I wouldn't miss it for the world," he kissed her, "My beautiful Moon Princess."
With that he left quietly out the window.
Serena turned back to her reflection, out the corner of her eye; she could make out a few stains of blood on her sheet. She decided she'd bother about them later. Right now, she was too sleepy and too happy to give a damn 'bout anything.
