No One To Talk To
Chapter 7
"Well that's it. See you next week!" Mrs. Michael says as she walks to her front door. I quickly duck behind the couch. I know Darien will offer me a ride home but I don't want to get him ignored either.
"Darien!" Raye calls. "I was wondering if you could give me a ride home?"
"Sure." Darien replies. I know he doesn't want to, but he should. I look and see them pass. Raye is clinging to his arm, like she is trying to claim it. I wait till they have left the block before I get out of my hiding spot.
"Mrs. Michael, why did you partner me with Darien?" I ask.
"Some times it's better not to know. Tell your mother I said hi." Mrs. Michael tells me and closes the door. I start my long walk home. It starts to snow half way home. I smile; I love it when it snows. I walk up to the fence of the playground. I had so much fun there when I was little.
I continue my walk home when I noticed the arcade. I haven't been there for along time, and it seems empty maybe one game would be nice. I enter and I head straight for the Sailor V game. I was winning, odd really. I am only good because I am smart but who cares.
"You having fun?" Darien asks me. I jump and get a game over.
"I was. I noticed Raye clinging onto your arm as you left. Are you finally giving her a chance?" I ask.
"So you were still there? You could've saved me." Darien says. I just smirk as I leave the arcade.
……………..Darien's POV
"So you were still there? You could've saved me." I say. Serena just smirks as she leaves. That girl is never going to listen is she? "Serena! Come on tell me why you didn't help me!"
"Fine I will tell you. I enjoy talking to someone and all but if people from school see's you talking to me can ruin your popularity. Sorry, it was nice having someone to talk to but see ya, later." Serena tells me and then she walks away.
I guess she knows what she is talking about. Though I believe no one should be friendless. To have no one to talk to, no one to confide in. Her life has to be hard.
…Next Day………………..Serena's POV
I walk to school; I didn't run into Darien on the way so I figure everything is back to normal. Well normal enough me. I may have lost a real friend yesterday, but I knew I couldn't keep a friend as long as the school ignores me. Who cares? I guess I do. Wow! I just said I cared! Something's wrong with me!
I found another note in my locker from firebabe. She wants me to meet her online. Knowing that someone out there wants to talk to me is nice, even if she doesn't want to talk to me in school. I wish I had asked who Darien is taking to the park opening. I guess I will never know, because I'm not going to the opening. Darien is walking in now. I think he is cutting it kind of close now.
"Good morning class. Since you all did so well on your projects I am letting you all have another free day!" Mrs. Michael cheers. Great. This time I really have no one to talk to.
"Darien! Are you going to tell me who you are taking to the opening?" Raye asks. She is so full of herself.
"I really think that should remain a surprise." Darien replies as he looks down at his book. I think he just glanced at me. Gosh, I am going to continue looking down and never, EVER, look at him again.
…………………….Darien's POV
"Darien! Are you going to tell me who you are taking to the opening?" Raye asks. She is so full of herself. (a/n: They are thinking the same thing!)
"I really think that should remain a surprise." I say. I prefer not letting anyone know that I don't have a date. I glance at Serena. She looks sort of sad. Oh no, I think she caught me looking at her.
"Why not Darien?" Raye asks me. Stop asking already.
"Because, it is nice to surprise everyone." I reply. Good, keep this up Chibi and we will be home free.
"That's not fair man!" Andrew whines. Funny, I never thought Andrew to whine. All well.
"Trust me it's fair." I say. The bell rings. Thank heavens now they will stop asking me.
……………………Serena's POV
Wow after that thing in first period you would think that Darien would be off hiding. Well he sure isn't hiding. It's lunchtime! Yum. I walk into the cafeteria to see Darien sitting at his normal table, with all the other stuck up snobs. I walk outside to the little picnic table I always eat at.
Midway through my lunch, someone sits down in front of me. I look up to see Darien. DARIEN! What does he want? He looks around, I guess to make sure no one is around. I figured.
"What do you want?" I ask as I look down at my food.
"I need to ask for a huge favor." Darien whispers. What is so huge that he has to whispers?
"What is it?" I ask again, not looking up.
"Not now. May I come over to your house later to ask?" Darien asks me. He is starting to freak me out.
"Sure." I reply. Darien smiles as he walks away. Wonder what he wants.
…After School………..Darien's POV
It's like the world has frozen. No one is out side because it's so cold. I bet Serena is somewhere out there, in the freezing cold, trying to get home. Why am I thinking so much about Serena lately? I can't get her off my mind for more then 2 minutes, trust me, I've tried.
I pull up into Serena's driveway. There is a yellow car in the driveway, which means her family must be home. I wonder what her family is like, especially if she doesn't smile in pictures or anything like that. I knock on the door. A woman with wavy blue hair opens the door. I think she is Serena's mother.
"Oh, hello. Who might you be?" The lady asks me.
"Hi, I'm Darien Chibi. Is Serena here?" I ask. The ladies eyes are shinning with joy now, did I miss something?
"Yes she is! I'm Mrs. Tsukino, Serena's mother." Mrs. Tsukino introduces herself to me. "Serena! You have a visitor!"
"Serena? Has a visitor?" Sammy says, as he laughs.
"What so hard to believe about that? Darien? I forgot you were coming over!" Serena gasps when she saw me. Wow, not even four days after our project ended, and she has all ready forgot about me. Wow.
…………………….
Well that's it for now! Before I forget I am sooooo happy! I have gotten a lot of reviews before I have even got to chapter 10! Well sadly there are so many reviewers that if I answer questions or thank you all in a message for most it will turn into a story! So I guess from now on I will just list everyone, and if I read something that makes my super happy you shall know it! ; )
Thanks to: Snick3rDooDl3, cassandrare2001, Illusion Glades, don'tbreakme (yeah she was just to mentioned…or was she?), airdreanna, Starlit Warrior (thank you. God bless to you and all), CharmedSerenity3, tearsofthefallen (maybe she should). I know it doesn't seem like enough, but you should really think about how I normally answer and how much space it takes up!
