Be careful what you wish for
Chapter 2Serena's P.O.V
BANG
"Aww crap! That hurt," I complained as I slowly got out of bed rubbing my head.
Hey there was never a shelf there before!
"Oh my god! Oh no, where am I?" I whispered as I looked at my surroundings, I didn't recognise a thing.
"Ok, I must be dreaming, relax Serena you're dreaming." I tried to clam down, as I pinched myself a number of times, but nothing!
WHAT THE HELL WAS GOING ON!
I slowly walked out of the bedroom I was in. There was a long hallway leading to a kitchen and a … Oh my god!
There I was looking at myself in the mirror, but who was staring back, it certainly didn't look like me.
I still had blonde hair, but it was shoulder length and I didn't have a fringe. I was wearing this silk nightdress thing, well if you could call it that! It barely covered me.
Suddenly I remembered last night, I wished for a different life. A new one! Oh my god, I didn't actually mean that.
"Hey Serena, where's the towel…. Well aren't you looking good this morning." I heard a strange voice say.
I turned around to see…
"AAAHH, oh my god, you're naked." I screamed as I covered my eyes.
Ok, so there's a freaky naked man in my apartment who apparently thinks I look good, and I don't know where I am. What a great day this is turning out to be.
"What's so bad about me being naked?" He asked.
You know, he was actually pretty cute.
"What the hell do you mean by that?" I argued.
"Well let's just say you didn't mind last night." He said as he winked at me and walked back into the bathroom.
"What?? I don't even know you." I yelled.
"Yeah, whatever, ok, you can play hard to get, I don't care."
Ok.. Ok what do I do?
Oh I know! I'll phone Mina.
I ran into what seemed to be the living room and started looking for a phone.
Finally I found one, quickly dialling Mina's number, I went to look for some shoes and a jacket. I needed to get out of there, away from that freaky naked man who thought I looked good. I needed help, and I needed it now!
"Come on Mina, pick up." I said under my breath as I finally found a baby pink jacket and put it on.
"Hi It's Mina and Andrew, sorry that we missed your call but we're on our HONEYMOON! Ok, so call back in like a week or two, thanks, ciao."
Honeymoon? What the hell? I thought Mina was dating that Adam guy, not Andrew, and why would she get married without telling me? I don't even think it's legal.
Ok, er now what? I've got to get out of here.
I ran into my bedroom and grabbed the only bag I could find, and the pink cell phone that was on the floor.
"Serena where are you going?" Asked that freaky man, I still didn't know his name.
"Out, and away from you." I answered as I ran as fast as I could out the door.
When I reached the street below, I punched Amy's number into the phone.
"Hello?"
Yes! She's not on her honeymoon, unlike Mina!
"Erm, Hi Amy."
"Hello? Who is this please?"
"Don't you recognise me?"
"Mina?"
"NO, it's Serena."
"Serena who?"
"What?"
"Serena who?"
"Tsukino, I can't believe you don't recognise me. I only saw you yesterday."
"Serena Tsukino, oh my, I haven't talked to you in years, how are you?"
"I'm fine, well actually I'm not, and hey what do you mean years? I think you're exaggerating a little there." I giggled.
"No I'm not, the last time I saw you was at our graduation, then you moved to America and we never say you again, anyway are you calling from America? Do you know how much this is going to cost you, I'll just make a quick calculation and…"
"AMY, I need your help." I yelled, typical Amy, still a nerd! But a nice one.
"Why are you in trouble?"
"Well, I don't know."
"Explain."
"Well, yesterday was the day that Darien broke up with me and you guys decided to kick me out because apparently I was stressed. And now I'm suddenly a lot older, I live in America according to you, and it looks like New York because there's a Bloomingdale's opposite where I now live, oh yeah, and there's a freaky man in my apartment who's naked and thinks I look good. I don't know what the hell is going on."
"Serena are you hung over?"
"WHAT? NO, I can't believe you'd even ask me that."
"Ok, well I don't understand how you could have missed out like 10 years of your life, it doesn't make sense."
"What so I'm like in the future?"
"Well, err, no but it probably is the future to you."
"Oh right, well what do I do?"
"I don't know, I mean what could have made this happen?"
"Oh I kinda wished for a new life, yeah, and then wow I get one, it's kinda strange."
"Not kinda, very strange."
"Yeah I know…"
Suddenly I got cut off. The phone said insufficient funds on the screen.
This was typical, I was in New York and I was 26 according to Amy, and that freaky naked guy that thought I looked good was probably gonna try and find me, he seemed to like me. What the hell was I going to do?
I felt like sitting down and crying, you know when like something bad happens in your life, like when your cat dies, or someone in your family dies, you wanna just curl up in a ball, go to sleep and never wake up.
Well that was what I felt like at that moment, except I wanted to wake up in my own bed, in my own home back in Tokyo. This was officially the worst day of my life!
Okay hope you enjoyed that! I know it was kind of boring, but the stories going to get better, trust me.
Please review if you like, or even if you don't, and tell me if my writing needs improving!
