'God, when will he stop knocking?' thought Serena. ' it's been an hour!'

"Serena! COME ON, JUST LET ME IN,WILL YOU!" Darien shouted. People starting coming out and looking at him weirdly.

"You know she doesn't just date ANYONE.." a pretty handsome guy told Darien with pity in his eyes.

"One more word and I will fucking kill you."

Suddenly the door opens. Serena stands with both her hands on her hips.

"Shields, take all offence in this- what the fucking hell do you think you are doing!"

"we need to talk."

"I'll close the door now and if you don't vanish in a minute I'm calling the cops" she growls and closes the door behind her.

A loud thump is heard. Darien is hitting a wall with all his power.

The guy looked at Darien worriedly.

"You know I have 2 beers at my apartment.."

"Oh I don't need beer. I need LOTS OF VODKA!" Darien mutters and storms out.

'I have to do some shopping' Serena realized. ' God, I still can't forget the Darien incident. I'd love to forgive him but I'm not some stupid whore for god's sake! Ohh he's gonna pay!' she thought to herself. She, however, didn't notice a car pulling up. A window opened and she heard a short command.

„Get in." She turned around only to see Darien looking at her. 'How dare he! How dare he command me after all this!'

"Fuck you."

"I think you didn't hear me correctly. GET IN. I'm going to count to three and than you'll be in my car. Don't try me Serena." He growls dangerously.

She took no attention to the words. 'Just keep walking, he'll eventually get bored.'

"ONE."

Serena raised an eyebrow.

"TWO."

Serena laughed

"THREE, I know the numbers Chiba. As easy as that."

"Have it your way" he sings. Before she even knew it a car pulled right in front of her with a screech. Darien came out, took Serena over her shoulder, put her in the passenger's seat (she started shouting and kicking, but could he care any less?), locked the door on her side ( just pressed a button, those nice cars have lots of advantages, don't they!) and drove towards his apartment. Meanwhile Serena tried to open the windows, figure out how to open the door ("the fucking thing that doesn't fucking move when it's supposed to" as she called it) she even thought about breaking the windows but before she even had a chance to they already arrived.

'I'm not getting out.' She though with a stubborn look on her face. No-ow. Darien closed his door behind him and opened hers. She didn't move. He unceremoniously placed her over the shoulder again and calmly made his way to his apartment.

Serena, on the other hand, started kicking, squirming, shouting but the people around just smiled at her.

"HE'S GOING TO RAPE ME! HELLLP!"

"You think that's gonna work?"

"Jesus, they can kidnap you in the fucking middle of the fucking city and no-one does anything! LET ME GO!"

"Honey, a) they see my look and they are scared b) no-one would kidnap a girl and carry her so freely."

"AND HOW WOULD YOU CALL WHAT YOU JUST DID? THAT'S NOT KIDNAPPING!"

"OH, That's just what you want me to do. You just don't know it yet" he said as he opened the door to his apartment. He put Serena on his couch and held her tightly in his arms.

"LET GO OF ME! You are treating me like a child!"

"And that's because you are behaving like one."

"Am not!"

"Than let's talk like normal people do."

"I don't wanna talk to you."

"Than we'll just sit here, like that, and wait until you change your mind, won't we!"

He placed her next to him and started reading a newspaper like nothing happened. Meanwhile Serena was getting a little impatient. 'Think. We are on the 5th floor. You cannot jump of the window. Wait? Did he lock the door!' a mischievous smile appeared on her face.

"I locked the door, don't worry." Darien countered.

"You had no fucking right."

"The right to what!"

"Say such things about me."

"What things?" Darien questioned.

"Don't pretend to be stupid. You either slept with Beryl or you were talking about me. I think we both know which one this is." Serena replied angrily.

"I had to make something up. I'm sorry but I was so over-exited that morning that the guys couldn't believe that it was 'nothing'. I couldn't tell them anything."

"YEAH, RIGHT!" Serena replied.

"Please, Sere. Believe me. I've never meant to hurt you and I think there is a little much more to us that meets the eye. You know that and that's why you want to break up with me. You are scared. Don't answer back to this one, 'cause it's no use. I know it, you know it but you are afraid to admit it."

That left Serena with her mouth open wide. She looked at him but couldn't utter a word.

"I really wasn't talking about you. Even if I'd tell them our story, they wouldn't believe it all. I'm sorry. I know I shouldn't have said all those things, but I do things and then think. Serena, will you forgive me!"

"Darien, I can forgive but I may not forget. I'm sorry." And with that, she left.

At the match.

"Nickers, Nickers!" the audience is roaring. 'Now it's our turn to entertain the viewers.' Thought Serena.

"Guys" she starts, as the head captain, "remember- smile, shout real loud and jump HIGH. LETS DO IT GIRLS!"

"Serena…" starts an anxious looking Mina, ".. you know the every year tradition with the kissing auction, right?"

'SHIT, SHIT I FORGOT!' Serena looked around.

"Mina, the answer is no."

"Serena.."

"NO. NO. NO."

"Come on, it's for THE KIDS. Remember."

That hit the nerve. Serena may not care about the geeks at school, but she is a good person. She loves kids and if she can do anything to help them, she'll do it.

"You got me." Moaned Serena. Why do they have to know her so well!

"Yeyy!" Mina shouts loudly. 'Jesus, that girl has got some energy'. Their moment (actually, it's Mina's moment) of happiness is interrupted by a.. oh no, The Feminazi. You know these girls who hate men, anything that's feminine? Yep.

"Serena," starts one of them, the one that always has the brilliant ideas, "you know we made a project about how your cheerleader uniforms should look like." She hands over a few papers. 'Oh, FANTASTIC! I'm gonna look like a nun! A long skirt, long sleeved shirt with a 'we are sexy and properly dressed!" logo.' Mina is, however, in tears –

"So cuuute! I'm sorry, I got really emotional!" she says trying not to look like she is laughing. After ten 10 seconds each and every single cheerleader is laughing hard.

"Ekhem. I'll leave the decision to Mina. This kind of stuff is not for me. She'll choose the right words for you guys" Serena mutters and continues walking.

"First of all, you GUYS SUCK! We will NOT wear those outfits and even try to give them to our principle and you'll be officially dead. Jesus, where are you from? Mars?". Mina just loves making fun of them. Well, good for her.

When they finish laughing they look at each other. A breath in, a breath out. Time for THE show.

As the cheerleaders enter the court people start shouting louder and louder.

SERENA POV

We shout with them, but after a minute I show the sign to stop. We stand straight, our heads held up high. The whole room goes quiet. The balls are passed to us, we catch them with all the grace. I start.

"We are the Nicker cheerleaders we are the leaders let's go girls!"

The music is roaring and so are the people. We bounce the balls and cheer. I just love this. In the corner of the eye I can see a guy from the opposite team checking me out. Hm. He's cute. I catch him looking at me, and what surprises me is that he smiles at me. I allow myself to snicker and turn my head away. Get back at Darien? Nah, the bitch altitude is enough for the poor bloke.

As we get off the pitch the guy walks up to Darien. I see them talking and looking at me. Oh no you won't . You are not talking about me behind my back. They don't see me coming because they are staring at each other so intensely that I if looks could kill.. you know the deal.

"If we win we get your girls. You win- you get our. Deal?"

"No. I am not going to allow this."

"What, scared of loosing?"

"No, we are just not interested in your girls."

"Ah, you probably have a major crush on the blonde girl, huh? She's not your type pall. I know her. We used to date and believe me, all I won't you is keeping out of this. So, do we have a deal?"

That's Diamond. Oh my God I didn't even recognize him! Handsome as always, he's also got brains. He's one of those perfect guys you always want. We almost hooked up once but I had to leave early because my I found out my mother died and I had to move.

"Diamond?" I shout. He turns around and grins at me. I hug him closely and kiss his cheek.

"How are you?" I ask. I could see Darien tense.

"Fantastic. Although I still hate it without you around. Hey, what do you say we go out and you'll show me around after the show, huh?" he asks.

"What about your fan club?" I tease him.

"They didn't follow me from NY, believe me. By the way, you were great. My coach shouted at me because of you 'cause I couldn't listen to what he was saying!"

I laugh lightly at that remark. I need to get over Darien. Definitively.

"Sure. By the gates after the game?"

"Sure!"

"I know I shouldn't say that…" I start and than lean towards him, ".. but good luck." And I kiss him on the cheek.

Why did I say that to him? He'll be thinking about me for the whole game. And he'll loose. We will get to cheer in other places. I'm bad, right? When he's gone I see Darien looking at me darkly.

"He'll be distracted, don't worry. That's for your advantage. Try to use it." I say and walk away.

We won. I mean how could we not? Diamond kept on looking at me and so did his whole team. It was hilarious! Darien, on the other hand, was not too pleased. When I showered and left the changing room he was waiting for me.

"I'm jealous." He said simply.

"so?" I raised an eyebrow.

"Please, do forgive me." Everyone is already gone. I sit down next to him.

"Darien, I can not."

"I don't like that guy."

"Your problem. It's me who's supposed to like him."
I kept on walking. I don't feel like going out with Diamond. It would be so like using him to get back at Darien.

When I told Diamond the story he didn't sound too happy. Gee, I was just honest with him. What else does the guy want from me? I keep on thinking about the situation on my way home when I see a car pulling up with unknown people. A few guys run up to me. Before I even know it they are pulling me into a car. I shout and scream but is seems useless. Suddenly I feel someone pulling me out of there, but than my vision goes blurry.
