Hello faithful readers! I AM SOO SORRY for taking so long to post this Chappie up! School has been pretty hectic. Also, I have mini writer's blocks at times, so I like it when people give me ideas on what to write. Also, just for fun, I'd like to see predictions on what going to happen next in my story. If you are right, or come close, I'll acknowledge you in my opening paragraph! So, Read, review, and enjoy the Fic!

Sadly, I do not own Sailor Moon, Christmas, a Yucky green coat, or…(sigh) The handsome young man that goes with it.

Serena merrily skipped out of Bentman's, carrying a small brown bag with the words Bentman's Petite Café printed on it. It amazed her on what a great deal she got on the cookbook…especially right before Christmas. $10.57… compared to the $20.00 it had been, I can't believe it was that cheap!

Serena was having all the luck. Since her little teddy bear incident (cringe), she not only kept her balance, she only ran into one lady in the store…and it was the lady's fault (she was diving after some half price pumps that her friend had tossed to her over a crowd in the shoe department), and just so happened to come across the "One-Day Ho-Ho-Ho Sale!" Where everything was marked down way low. And the icing on the cake…no crowds near the café! It was too good to be true!

With gift in hand, she sauntered over to the wall and leaned against it. She then took out Mina's "Sticky-Sweet Love Potion" (She had to giggle at that), and put it into the Bentman's bag. She was about to mark Lita's gift on her list, when she heard somebody calling her name.

Well speak of the electric she-devil herself!

A little out of breath, Lita ran up to Serena, dodging about five mall-go'ers in the process. Just before she got there, Serena remembered the bag in her right hand, and quickly swung it behind her back. She put on a sheepish grin, hoping Lita didn't notice the action.

"Hey Serena! Getting last minute shopping done too?" Lita put her hand on the wall, and leaned in a little bit, trying to catch her breath. "Man," she continued, wiping her brow with her wrist, "this should be a sport! It would be counted up there with football and rugby!"

Serena giggled, but still tried to conceal the bag behind her back. "Yeah Leets, just trying to cross some names off my list before the party…heh-heh"

Lita lifted an eyebrow, now noticing that Serena was hiding something behind her back. "What's behind your back?" She said with a smirk.

"Oh th-this? No-nothing really…" Saying with her best attempt at a poker face. She failed miserably.

"Oh really now?" Lita said, knowing that face all too well. Before she could interrogate anymore, Serena noticed the bag in the hand against the wall. It was a small gray plastic one from Sinbad's Wacky World printed on it. That store was notorious for the weird, the strange, and the funniest gifts. The sign in front even said, "Enter At Your Own Risk…We Don't Bite, But Some Of Our Stuff DOES…"

"Who's that for Lita?" Serena said, pointing at the bag in Lita's hand. Lita quickly lost her smirk, and speedily mimicked Serena by straitening up, and putting the bag behind her back too. She plastered on a very cheesy grin.

"Uh…umm…Ami? Heh-heh…heh…"

Serena knew better. Yeah right, like Ami would actually want anything in there…I think the place actually scares her, to tell the truth!

But before she could voice this, a group of girls, about Sammy's age, leaned against the wall, about a couple of feet away from Lita and Serena.

"Oh-my-Gawd! Did you see that guy in the fountain Shanna?" said the one closest to Serena, wearing a red boat neck sweatshirt and a green tank top under it.

"NO! I, like totally missed it Brittany! I got here right after it happened!" pouted the girl in front of her, wearing a green Reindeer t-shirt, and a red long sleeved shirt under it.

A third girl from the group, wearing a yellow sweater with a Christmas turtle on it, leaned in. "It was some CRAZY stuff Shanna! Like, one minute, he was standing in front of some chick, right? So then, …I guess the chick didn't see him or something, because then next thing he did was shoot into they air, and land in the fountain! He was like, a flying raccoon!

"SHUT UP! I can't believe it Cassie!"

"It's true Shan! I swear!"

The Brittany girl nodded enthusiastically in agreement.

This conversation had intrigued Serena quite a bit. After all, she didn't really get a good look at the guy, and she could have sworn it was…

Lita interrupted that train of thought. "Hey girls! I'm sorry for ease dropping, but did some guy actually fall into the wishing fountain?" All three girls looked up and blinked at the, rather tall, older girl. Serena turned her head from the girls, over to Lita. "Yeah Leets, I actually saw it too! Well, him swimming, that is. I didn't see him actually fall

Into the water, but still! I mean, what kinda lunatic does something like that in the middle of winter anyway?"

"A pretty hot one, if you ask me!" Piped up the Brittany girl. All eyes shifted back to her.

"Ooo! What did he look like Brit?"

Both Brittany and Cassie got smitten looks on their faces, and cartoon hearts in their eyes.

"He was really tall, like 6'1"

"…and had trim muscular body!" chimed in Cassie.

" …nice black sweater…"

"…perfect fitting jeans…"

Right then, a vision of Darien popped into Serena's mind. After all, that almost described the jerk of her dreams. He was pretty tall, and aside from the ugly green jacket, Where on EARTH did he get such a yucky jacket…not to mention who told him it looked good! , that was his normal attire, and what he had worn to the mall that day. Very perfect fitting jeans! I wonder if he gets them tailored…although,(giggle) he looks wicked cool in almost anything! He even makes that major gross , dead frog looking jacket, look a little more appealing. sigh

The next things that came out of the girls' mouths though caught her attention.

" …And he had this amazing black hair! You know, almost shaggy, but not too messed up, kind of thing."

"Totally hot!"

Black hair? Almost shaggy? That sounds just like…

Serena's thoughts were, yet again, cut off, by the Shanna girl this time. "Whoa guys! We SOO have to go! We're gonna be late meeting up with my Mom is we don't hurry!" The three girls waved their goodbyes to Lita and Serena, and headed off.

Serena looked down at her watch right then. 4:20? It's that late already! How long did I stand here and listen to those girls anyway? Oh, now I'll never get my shopping done!

"Hey Serena, what time is it" Pouting, Serena looked up at her friend. "4:20."

Lita's eyes bulged. " You're kidding? I have to get going! I'm suppose to meet up with Ken in ten minutes at the Mall entrance!"

Serena furrowed her brow in confusion. "I thought he was in Kyoto with his Grandparents for Christmas Lita."

"He leaves today, but he wanted to hang out and exchange gifts before he goes. He's going to drop me off at the party."

"Oh, ok. Well, you better book it! The entrance is at the other end of the Mall, and with all these people here, I don't know if you'll make it!"

An evil gleam came alive in Lita's eyes, as she grinned and rubbed her palm together. "Oh I'll make it, just you see, I'll make it…even if I have to plow though this merry ole' crowd!"

"Good luck!"

Right before Lita was about to take off, she remembered a very important thing. "Ah man! I totally forgot! I have film developing at the Photo Hut! I don't have time to pick it up and get to Ken time!"

"Can't you just pick it up tomorrow?"

"Can't. The roll I'm getting developed has that picture I took of Ami and Greg at school on it. I was going to give it to her as a gift. I even have the frame for it and everything!" Lita pouted. What was she to do? Pick up the pictures and be late meeting with Ken (who she 'not so secretly' had a major crush on', or wait to give Ami her gift? Luckily, our favorite Super Heroine saved the day.

"Hey, I'm going to be here for a little while longer, so why don't I pick up the pictures, and then give them to you at Rei's?" Lita immediately perked up. "Oh Serena! You're a lifesaver! Thanks!" She reached into her purse, and retrieved a small piece of paper. "He's the stub for the pics! Oh, hey, I got doubles, so, feel free to take any that you like!"

Serena smiled a big goofy smile for this. "YIPPEE! Thanks Lita! Better go! See you at the party!"

Lita was just about to run off, when she noticed something…odd, about the bottom of one of Serena's pigtails. "Hey Serena…" she crouched down to inspect it more. "…there's something in you hair…"

Serena tensed in alarm. "WHAT IS IT? EWWW! GET IT OUT! GET IT OOOUUUUTTTT!"

Trying to hold the frantic girl immobile, Lita exclaimed, "Geez, I could if you STOOD STILL!" She finally untangled the object from the bottom of the pigtail, and raised an eyebrow.

"Hey Sere, looks like you had a friend tag along." Looking at that Lita was holding up, she saw, to her utmost horror…

"AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH! THE BEARS ARE AFTER ME! GET IT AWAY! AAAAAAAHHHHHHH!" and with that, she zipped away, into the frenzied Fa-la-la'ers.

Lita raised an eyebrow, and looked intently after her retreating friend, other known as a Class Five hurricane. "What was all that about?" Looking at the green Christmas bear. " I think you're kinda cute! Wanna come with me little fella?" She smirked, and put him in her shopping bag. As she was doing so, she caught a glimpse at what she bought. At the mere sight of it , it maid her robustly laugh. Oh man, she though Serena's going to get a kick out of this gift! I can't wait to show Ken!

And with that, she cracked her knuckles, and made her way towards the mall entrance.

Ch.5 done! Sorry that it wasn't too funny, but, I promise, that Ch. Coming up are not only funny, but romantic too. Still though, I REALLY would like to have ideas! I'll listen! Really!

Oh, btw, the three girls in the mall are actual friends of mine. Yes, they really talk like that. I love you guys!
