Title: Mystery Girl
Author: Crystal Saturn
Rated: PG 13
Chapter: 14- Brownie Point Stealer pt.1

What a better way to start the day off than to my favourite song on the radio. So I left the radio on and danced my way downstairs to make myself a decent breakfast. I was so excited about today, it being Valentine's Day and all, that I didn't even notice Darien staring at me through the kitchen window. Gosh! I must've looked like such a total retard by the way he looked at me. But that didn't matter because today is my first ever Valentine's Day where I actually have a date. I wonder if Lucas got me anything…

It doesn't matter because I'm loved on Valentine's Day. Could my life get any better at all? I know today will be amazing. I can just feel it. As I walked closer and closer towards school, I could see all the Valentines presents and flowers that various people held close to them and I couldn't help but wonder how Valentine's Day was exploited to the max by florists and chocolate companies. But it was all in the name of love.

I walked down the main hall, past all the happy faces and towards my locker. I smiled when I noticed a note taped to my locker. Skipping towards it, I gently pulled it off my blue locker and opened the delicate envelope.

"Dearest Beautiful Serena,

Your smile takes my breath away. Today is your day. There will be many more surprises for you. I hope you like them. You deserve all I can give and so much more. If only you knew just how beautiful you are to me.

Love Always, Your Secret Admirer"

My breath caught at the back of my throat and I opened my locker door to retrieve my books for the next lesson but my eyes caught a glimpse of candy hearts instead.

"Someone's loved!" I turned my head and smiled warmly.

"Darien!"

"Watcha got there?" he glanced into my locker and at the letter. "Wow, and I haven't even gotten a hug today!" he pouted in mock disappointment.

"Awww." I smiled and leaned in to give him a hug. How could I ever resist, especially when he flashed off his gorgeous sapphire blue puppy dog eyes. They're too cute! "So who were those roses for this morning huh?"

"Roses? What roses? I don't know what you're talking about! I know of no such roses!" He denied all too quickly and I laughed at the guilty look plastered all over his face.

"Oh you know exactly what I'm talking about!"

"They were for mum of course!"

Lie. I can always tell when he lies. He raises an eyebrow and half rolls his eyes in thought. Such a bad liar.

"Ok then…" I decided to let him off the hook as the bell rang.

knock knock

"Sorry to interrupt Mr. Forge but these are for Serena Tsukino." My head shot up toward the front of my math classroom. Balloons! Helium balloons! In my first class! Helium balloons with the words "I love you" printed all over them. Oh wow. How embarrassing. But so sweet! I opened the second letter that was attached to the balloons slowly.

"Dearest Gorgeous Serena,

When I look at you, my heart soars higher than these balloons and I feel my feet lift off the ground. I hope you like the balloons and I hope they'll serve as a constant reminder today that you're loved. There are still plenty more surprises to come.

Love Always, Your Secret Admirer"

Oh, my heart skipped a beat. Butterflies in the pit of my stomach. Wow. It must be Lucas, who else could it be? I walked out of that class with a grin from ear to ear. Lucas really does love me!

"Hey are you Serena? This is for you." A random boy walked up to me and handed me a rather large teddy bear before walking away and dissolving into the crowd. I looked at the toy and realized that it was almost as big as I was. I felt all eyes on me as I walked down the crowded hallway holding an oversized stuffed toy and half a dozen helium balloons. I wondered where Lucas was hiding. I hadn't seen him all morning but I knew that when I did see him, he was going to get the hugging of a lifetime.

The next few classes were a blur. All I could really think about were the presents I had received. A box of my favourite chocolates and a bottle of perfume that I've wanted for a while now. I didn't know how Lucas knew. We just started dating and he hadn't asked many questions about me. I re-read the last two letters to myself.

"Dearest Incredible Serena,

You are the sweetest girl I have ever met. No one else in this world could make me feel the way I do. You light up my life in so many ways and you've made me a better person. Thank You, Serena.

Love Always, Your Secret Admirer."

The letters keep on getting sweeter! I never, in my wildest dreams, imagined Lucas to be just a sweetheart.

"Dearest Amazing Serena,

The more I see you, the more I fall in love with you. Your radiant smile, your stunning eyes, your wonderful personality. There is nothing about you I don't love. I live for your laughter and I'd die before I'd let a single tear fall from your eyes. This, I promise you.

Love Always, Your Secret Admirer."

For some reason I was beginning to doubt that it was Lucas sending all these mystery gifts. It just seemed so beyond him. Could he really be capable of writing something so beautiful? Would he really go through all that trouble just for me? Of course he would, silly! He's dating me. Why wouldn't he? And besides… who else could it be?

I sat at my usual cafeteria table at lunch, surrounded by Valentines gifts.

"So I see you really are loved then." I looked up from my lunch to see Darien sitting opposite me. I simply sipped at my apple juice and smiled. "By the way, this guy came along and told me to give these to you." Darien moved his right arm from behind his back and revealed a large bouquet of red roses. My breath caught at the back of my throat as I reached out for the exquisite present.

"They're so beautiful." I leant down and took a deep breath, relishing one of my favourite scents. "There are... twenty five? What a strange number." I frowned with curiosity and turned to Darien. He shrugged his shoulders.

"Sorry, no letter this time. Looks like you'll have to try to figure out that riddle on your own." He smiled curiously as he watched me continue to admire my latest gift. "Have you any idea who your Secret Admirer may be?"

"Well…" I looked directly at him, hoping to get some answers "I have one person in mind." I watched as he shifted under my gaze and flinched slightly. "You know who it is, don't you?" I cracked a smile excitedly.

"What? Me? Know who this Secret Admirer is? No way!" He chuckled, raised an eyebrow and semi rolled his eyes, looking away.

Lie lie lie!

"How ridiculous Sere! I'm going to go before I get accused of anything else." Darien smiled as she blushed and left swiftly. He knew who it was and he wasn't telling me. I could tell by the way he acted. He was keeping something important from me.

"Hey Beautiful…" A husky voice whispered into my ear sending shivers up and down my spine.

"Lucas!" I turned around and was faced with a bouquet of purple and yellow carnations.

"More flowers? You shouldn't have! Especially with everything you've already given me today!" His gaze fell upon the bear and the balloons and he smiled broadly.

"I'm glad you like them." He leaned in and kissed me on the cheek.

"I love your presents. You really do spoil me! You didn't have to… you know that don't you?" I was relieved he admitted that he was the Secret Admirer.

"I know, but you deserve it all. You're so beautiful to me. And besides, if a boyfriend can't spoil his sexy girlfriend on Valentine's Day, then when can he?"

"The letters are so incredibly romantic." I sighed and leant up against him.

"Letters? Oh yes… those letters. Only the best for my beautiful girlfriend."

Darien's Point of View

Bastard! Taking all the credit for my hard work! Why, I should just march right over there and beat the crap out of him. She'll never know it's from me now. She'll never know I put in all those hours and all my money into making her day perfect. She'll never know how I truly feel about her thanks to him mooching away and taking all the credit for it. Not unless… of course. It's time to change course. That's it Lucas, you're going down. Time for plan B. Lucas, I am your worst nightmare. Welcome, The Darienator... or should it be Super Daz? No no... wait... maybe... ahh I ruined the end of the chapter...

Ok… as promised that was part one of the Valentines special. Part two will be out next weekend… for sure! I'm on my last week of school before Easter Holidays so I'll have time again to start regularly writing. So sorry about all the delays recently. School's been getting pretty hectic. Anyways. See you all next week and please Review!
