Chapter:4- Intruder
:Serena:
When they were out of sight of the arcade, both blonde girls burst out into a laughing fit, Serena blushing profusely.
" I've never done anything like that in my life! I CAN'T BELIEVE I JUST DID THAT!" Serena cried out aloud as she and Mina giggled towards the mall.
"Neither can I! Serena, you know what that means don't you?" Mina asked. The giggles slowly faded away.
"Umm… no, not really. What are you talking about?" Serena asked, curiously.
"You've fallen MADLY IN LUUUURRRVVEE!" Mina giggled childishly, waiting for Serena to hit her or say something back. But Serena just sighed deeply, looking up at the sky.
"I guess I have…" She said dreamily, the taste of coffee still lingered in her mouth and made her heart beat faster. The two girls both broke out giggling again.
:Darien:
"WHAT WAS ALL THAT?" Andrew asked, quite confused and just as shocked as Darien. Darien opened his mouth to speak but all that he could manage was a tiny squeak.
"Yeah! That's what I thought!" Andrew blinked a few times. "Was that Serena?" He asked rubbing his eyes.
"Y…" Darien squeaked again and cleared his throat. "Yeah…" He said quietly, still staring at where Serena had been standing just a few minutes ago.
"I KNEW IT!" Andrew shouted jumping .up and down excitedly.
"What?" Darien asked, trying to cover his embarrassment.
"She's got it in for you! She's totally mad about you man!" Andrew grinned broadly.
Darien thought in silence. The kiss floated into mind, then the little 'coffee' incident.
"What a little flirt!" Andrew smiled and shook his head. "That sly minx!"
"Huh?" Darien asked, finally breaking his trance.
"Don't tell me you didn't notice how she was flirting with you man!" Andrew said
"Yeah…" Darien said quietly again.
"Ha- the girl finally took my advice." Andrew smiled as he wiped a tray down.
"What advice? You gave her advice?" Darien got up from his booth and walked over to the counter where Andrew was. Andrew chuckled nervously.
"Hehe… well I might as well tell you now." Andrew leaned down against the counter. "Serena's had a crush on you for a loooong time now. Just about as long as you've had a crush on her." Andrew admitted
"Why didn't you ever tell me?" Darien whined.
"Well, I just thought that you two would've known already." Andrew lied. "Besides, she told me not to tell anyone. Now you wouldn't like it if I told her all of your secrets, like the one where you got drunk at a party and YOU were the guy shouting out "You're beautiful" outside her house at 2 in the morning. And the one where you fell into the fountain at the park cause you thought you saw her on your morning jog. And the time you were staying at my place and you were sleep talking, saying 'Serena… Serena…' and kissing your pillow." Andrew made kissy faces and 'mwa mwa' noises. "And all the times you 'accidentally on purpose' run into her. And…"
"OK OK ANDREW! I GET THE POINT!" Darien said hiding his face in embarrassment. 'He actually remembered that incident at his apartment?' Darien cringed. Andrew had taken a photo of him, burying is face into the pillow making a kissy face and made a couple thousand copies.
Darien had a copy at home.
:That Afternoon:
Darien strolled back into the Crown.
"Hey again Dar!" Andrew waved.
"Hi" Darien gave one of his Tuxedo Mask salutes.
He sighed and casually walked over to the glass box with the words "The Claw" written in neon lights, over near the counter. He calmly brushed his hair back as he pulled a token out of his pocket and placed it into the machine. He spotted his target and moved the metal claw with precise accuracy and experience. He pressed the red button and the claw lowered.
"Come on, that's it! Almost got it!" The claw wrapped around the plush toy of Tuxedo Mask. The toy moved slightly but the claw did not grasp it. "Aww Rats!" Darien cursed.
"Darien, why do you always try for that one?" Andrew leaned against the game
"I don't know." Darien thought. "I like his cape I guess…" Darien half lied as he placed another token into the machine.
All the noise of the arcade blocked the sound of the arcade doors sliding open. Two blonde girls stepped in, their hands clasping heaps and heaps of bags. They placed their bags under the table in a booth.
"Look, there's Darien." Mina pointed out.
Serena smiled as they both walked up behind him silently.
"Well, fancy seeing you again Mr. Chiba…" Serena breathed across Darien's neck.
That startled him into pressing the red button too early and the claw lowered, grabbing onto the pink bunny next to the Tuxedo Mask plush toy instead. Darien spun around.
"Hello Meatball Head!" Darien grinned, not noticing the claw pick up the pink bunny.
"Oh!" Serena pouted before lightly hitting Darien's chest. She then gasped. "Darien, Look!" She pointed to the game.
Darien turned around to see that the claw had picked up the pink bunny and strangely enough, a corner of the cape of the plush tuxedo toy got trapped between the pink bunny and the claw, lifting it with the bunny. The claw moved and dropped the toys in the collection compartment. He leaned over to retrieve his prize and turned around, grinning.
"Here ya go." Darien handed the two soft toys over to the astounded blonde meatball headed girl standing just behind him.
"What? Are you sure?" Serena asked.
"Yeah, sure. I don't collect plush toys." Darien chuckled. Serena blushed slightly as she held the toys close to her chest and cuddled them. Serena dragged Darien to her booth and sat down. Andrew and Mina soon followed, smiling.
"Thank you." Serena hugged Darien lightly while she admired her gift.
Andrew and Mina sat down across the table and to them, Darien and Serena looked incredibly cozy and adorable together.
"Ok- so what would you guys like?" Andrew asked standing up again.
"The usual." The other three said in unison.
"Alright then!" Andrew smiled as he turned around.
Just then Serena held Darien's shoulder down lower and whispered something into is ear. His cheeks flushed bright red and Serena let go of Darien's shoulder. Andrew returned with 2 chocolate shakes, 2 burgers, a coffee and a chocolate muffin to see Serena playfully leaning up against Darien's frame.
"Uh, Andy, can we use the employees room for a sec? I really need to talk to Darien about something." Serena asked sweetly.
"Sure… go ahead." Andrew scratched is head and looked at Darien, who looked almost half as confused as Mina did.
"Thanks!" Serena smiled innocently as she took Darien by the hand and dragged him to the door that read 'employees only'. As they entered, Serena quickly shut the door behind her and turned around to face Darien. A light pink hue stained Serena's cheeks.
I hoped you liked that. The next chapter will be out in a weeks time and it's rather… sexual. Please Review!
