Hey everyone!!!!! Ok well here's chapter 3 hope ya like!

Disclaimer- I don't not own sailor moon sigh

Serena must have gone to at least 30 different dress shops to find a dress to where to the dinner paryt that night. When she finally did decide to buy a dress she choose a strapless light pink silk dress that clung to her every curve and touched to the floor.

When Serena got home she checked her messages.

" You have 2 new messages" came the robotic voice.

" To listen to your new messages press" it was cut off by Serena pressing one.

" Hey Serena its me Darien. Just calling to remind you that I'm picking you up at 6:00. So be ready and meet me down stairs." beep.

She rolled her eyes "You could at least come up stairs to get me" though shehad to admit she was kind of looking forward to this evening.

" message two." came the robotic voice again.

" Umm hi Serena it's me Derrick. Well I just wanted to apologize for last night. And I was thinking that maybe we could get dinner tonight or tomorrow night. Ok well call me back my number is 378 546 2390. Well I really hope to hear from you. Ok well bye."

Serena's heart dropped into her lungs. He was so adorable! She immediately picked up the phone and called his number.

" Hello?" his voice hit her hears like music.

"Hi Derrick. Its me Serena and I just wanted to return your call and I just wanted to say I'm sorry about last night and I would really like to go out on a date with you but I cant tonight because I have to got to this dinner thing and.."

"Hey hey slow down. It's ok and I would really like to go on a date with you too."

" Really? Wow I feel like I'm in high school again." she started to laugh lightly.

" Me too. So how's tomorrow night say around 8?"

"Sound great! I'd love too." happiness filled her voice.

" ok I'll see you then."

"ok" Serena said hanging up the phone and walking into he bedroom to get ready for the dinner later that night.

Serena stood in front of her mirror. She examined her out fit and then placed a white diamond necklace on. She looked at her hair she couldn't decide weather she should leave her hair down or put it up in a French twist with curls falling out. After about 15 minutes of debating she decided on the French twist. She looked at her clock 5:50.

She grabbed her coat and slipped on her pink heals. And walked out the door locking it behind her. When she got down to the lobby she saw Darien waiting for her by the doors. He had a black tux on with a red rose in his pocket. He looked so gorgeous.

Darien looked at Serena the light pink dress she had on fit her like a glove. Her crystal blue eyes where shinning. She walked up to him.

He stared at her. His eyes never leaving her face. "6:00 right on time."

" Thanks." she eyed him. She noticed his eyes were fixed on her. " Why are you staring at me?" she questioned arching an eyebrow.

"You just look so beautiful. I'm just use to seeing the Always rushing Serena who never has time for her self."

She looked at him " Well that was almost a compliment."

" Lets not get into an argument please. Come on Women lets go."

Serena just stood there. " I'm not moving a single muscle until you call me by my name."

He laughed. " Okay, come on lets go Meatball head." he said taking her arm.

"Asshole" she murmured under her breath.

" I heard that"

"Good"

As they walked out in to the cold air the limo driver opened the door for them.

" Thank you John" Darien said letting Serena get in first.

As they both sat in the limo barley 4 inches away from each other they were completely silent. Serena stared out the window as the flashing lights of the city passed her by. Darien just watched Serena. He studied her, the way she moved the hair out of her face, the way she smiled even the way she rolled her eyes.

The drive for Serena felt like hours she could feel Darien's eyes on her. It was so weird, she felt like she was being violated. But some how she wanted to look at him too but couldn't turn around. At least they were at the hotel where this formal thing was.

As the limo pulled up in front of the Sheraton New York Serena and Darien stepped out side as a the manager of the hotel escorted them into the Impearl ballroom. One of eight in the 60 floor hotel.

Serena's mouth almost dropped open when she saw the size of the ballroom it self. She felt very small. Darien leaned over to her and whispered in her ear.

" It's just a room. You'll be fine".

In some odd way that comforted Serena. Darien grabbed Serena's hand and walked to her over to where his boss was sitting. Serena was still in a daze and didn't even notice Darien holding her hand.

" Hello Mr. Shields. Ah and who is this beautiful young lady?" he paused a moment to kiss Serena's hand. " Another flavor of the month," he mused a smile forming on his lips.

Darien made a weak smile. " No. No this is Serenity Tuskino. We've known each other since high school. You could say a bunch of us moved City together. Oh and Serena this is Mr. Jade the owner and partner of the law firm I work for."

" It's lovely to meet you. I wish I could say I've heard more about you, but alas Darien and I don't spend enough time together for me to know much about him any more" she said smiling towards Darien. As a waiter came by and offered them champagne.

" That's something I plan to change" Darien murmured under his breath.

" Hmmm?" questioned Serena.

" Oh I just said that's some good champagne" he answered smiling taking another sip.

As the great room gathered more people music started to play.

Darien looked at Serena who was talking with Mr. Jades wife.

" I do believe our song is playing. Shall we?" Darien said extending his hand to her.

She excepted it as he lead her to the dance floor. She leaned in and asked "Since when do we have a song?" .

" Well.." he began " you just look to beautiful not to dance with. So I came up with a smooth line to ask you" he finished smiling his deep blue eyes shining.

Serena just laughed and looked at his eyes, and then the weirdest thing happened she felt a bit weak in her knees then she looked at his eyes again. Those eyes why hadn't she noticed them before? She couldn't help but smile at him. Mina was right, maybe she did like Darien. Maybe that's why she agreed to come to this thing, maybe that's why she couldn't stop thinking about him, and maybe that's why she dreamt about him. Serena was off in her own little world dancing with Darien and it felt so right. Serena hadn't even realized that a new song started to play till Darien something to her.

"Where did you learn to dance like this? I mean this isn't the ungraceful, and clumsy Serena I knew in high school."

She looked up at him for a moment before answering . "You're right this isn't the Serena you knew in high school" she broke and looked down. " she's been gone for a while. And I don't think she's coming back. Face it Darien we haven't talked to each other since we graduated. So much has happened since then…." she looked back up at him her eyes a bit watery " And to be honest I don't think I can do this…. You give me so many mixed emotions and I don't know what they are. And it drives me crazy because you're all I think about." she finished in a low voice.

Darien just stood there not able to say anything. He just stared at her eyes. Serena let go and walked out ontothe balcony of the ballroom. She gazed at the city leaning on the railing. Why did she say that? God what about Derrick. What about Darien? This was all to confusing for her. She put her head in her hands. Darien walked out on the balcony and saw Serena standing there. He walked up to her and wrapped an arm around her. She turned around a bit startled then relaxed seeing it was Darien.

"So does all that mean you like me?" he questioned bending his head to rest on hers.

" I don't know. I guess so. I mean.... I have no idea what is going on with me." she answered a bit wiry.

" I take that as a yes then." he said smiling and kissed her lips gently. " I have dreams about you too" he mused moving his eye brows up and down.

Serena just smiled and laughed. "You perv".

" I take that as a compliment" he said kissing her a bit more passionately this time. Serena kissed him back smiling.

"Well shall we go back in and finish our evening?" he asked.

" Yes" she said taking his hand as he led her back in the grand room.

The rest the of the night went wonderfully. Darien even walked Serena up to her apartment like a gentleman. Once Serena got inside she quickly stripped of her clothing and went to take a shower. As she stood while the hot water ran over her body she washappy, and still confused. What did this make her and Darien? Did it mean they were going out or just seeing each other? God this was high school all over again, minus her weird hairdo. As she finished her shower she wrapped a towel around her and sat on her bed. She stared atthe phone.

" Should I call him?" she questioned her self, then she saw Luna jump on her bed. She pick her up and held her so they were face to face.

"Do you think I should I call him girl?" Luna just meowed. Serena let out a little giggle as Luna licked her fingers. Serena stood up and looked at her phone once more and turned around and started walking to the kitchen when she stopped dead in her tracks.

"Derrick!" she let out a gasp. "Shit, shit, shit! What the hell do I tell him? Well um Derrick in the last 6 hours I've fallen completely head over heels for Darien" she mimicked. " oh yeah that'll be real good." She paused and took a breath and exhaled. " Ok Serena think you can handle this you're 25 years old not 16. Just simply say that you … that you ..Ohfuck it!" she threw her arms up and walked into the kitchen to get some coke and sat down on the couch. She turned on the T.V. and flipped on a movie channel which was playing 'How to lose a guy in 10 days'. She leaned back and closed her eyes and ran her hand through her damp hair. " How the hell do I get my self in these situa…" she broke when she heard a knock at her door. " Who could be here at this time?" she asked her self with anger. She reluctantly got up off the couch and walked to the door and took of the chain. "Helloooooo… Derrick what are you doing here?"
