Disneyland was FUN! But you don't care, so I'll just go on. I don't own Sailor Moon.

"Stupid monster, die!" Serena screamed at the screen.

Raye watched her, drinking a Slurpee. "You are such a loser."

Serena dies for the fifth time & turns around. "Shut up, Raye." Getting up, she walks over to talk to Andrew.

"What's up?" she said, smiling.

"Nothing." He smiled back. After his hospital visit in the 5th grade, he's been careful with his health. He had made a miraculous recovery three weeks after he fell ill.

Raye sat next to Serena, finishing off her Slurpee. "Well, I gotta go. Karate." She waved to Serena & Andrew & walked out, throwing away her cup.

Serena smiled, then sighed. "I should go too. Tons of homework."

"Come on. What kind of homework does a 6th grader have?" Andrew joked.

Serena smirked at him. "A lot for your information." She joked, grabbing her backpack. "See you later." She waved & walked out of the arcade.

She made it home just as it was about to rain. "Momma! Papa! I'm home!" she called out, but no one answered

Serena dropped off her backpack & shoes & walked into the kitchen, looking for a snack. There was a note on the fridge.

Serena,
Me, Papa & Sammy went out of a while. Be back by 6."
Momma.

Serena looked at the clock. It read 5:30. "I have half an hour by myself. What to do?" she mused, throwing herself down on the couch.

"I should do my homework, but a half hour of TV won't hurt." She turned on her TV & began to channel surf.

"Cooking show, news, infomercials, baby show, more news…" Serena flipped through the channels.

The phone rang & Serena got up to get it. "Hello, Tsukino resident."

"Serena?"

"Momma? Hi." Serena smiled.

"Hi sweetie. Listen, Sammy had a little accident, so we will be home a little later than the note said."

"What accident? How late?" Serena asked the usual questions.

"It was nothing, just tripped & ruffed up his knee. He should be fine. We'll be home hopefully by 7:30-8."

Serena tried to keep her smile down. "So I'm by myself until then?"

Ikuko laughed. "No sweetie. I called a babysitter."

Serena felt her smile drop. "Momma, I'm 11! I don't need a babysitter!"

"Well, I'll feel safer if you had one. He should be there soon."

Serena perked up. "He?"

Ikuko became serious. "Serena Tsukino, don't even think about it."

"What?" Serena played dumb.

"He's older than you, so don't even think about getting caught up with him."

"Momma, I'll be fine. Tell Papa & Sammy I love them & see you soon. Bye." Serena hung up before her mom could say anything else.

Serena bit her lip. "I hope he's hot." She looked down at her sweats. "But I am not."

She ran upstairs to take the quickest shower ever. She got out & styled her hair the same way, but the pigtails had more of a curl to them than usual.

She put on the pink antique flutter sleeve dress that her father doesn't know about. She put on a necklace & looked at herself. "Clothes, check. Hair, check. Time for makeup."

She put on some lip gloss & a little blush. She was contemplated mascara when the doorbell rang.

"Crap, he's here!" she ran downstairs, then smoothed her dress down. "Be calm, Serena. You can do this."

Grinning her best smile, she opened the door. "Hi, it's you!" she exclaimed, seeing the same boy from earlier today.

He smiled back at her. "Yup. Serena Tsukino?"

Serena nodded, mouth opened. Then noticed it was raining. "Sorry! Come in!" She back away, letting him in. He took off his wet coat & shoes, revealing a tight black shirt with black jeans.

Serena bit her lip, trying hard not to stare. "Um, you know my name, but what's yours?"

The boy went still. Serena felt like she said something stupid. "Sorry, I didn't mean to…"

The boy turned, smiling again. "It's no problem. You can call me…Mamoru."

Serena smiled, feeling a blush rise to her cheeks. "Ok, Mamoru. So what do we have planned for today?"

"Nothing. Your mother just wanted you to do your homework."

Serena groaned. "What if I said I already did it?"

Mamoru smiled. "Then I'd have to check it."

Serena pouted. "Fine. I'll do it."

"I'll make you a deal. Do one homework assignment & you can do whatever you want for 10 minutes." Mamoru compromised.

"30." Serena shot back.

"20." Mamoru said, eyes twinkling.

Serena smirked. "Fine, 20." She grabbed her backpack & brought it to the table.

"What do you have to do tonight?" he asked.

"Just math & English. English I can deal with, math…" she trailed off, but Mamoru got it.

He nodded. "OK, I can help you with the math if you want."

Serena felt her cheeks turn red again. "Sure." She smiled & took out her English homework.

Mamoru began working on science homework & they sat in silence, working, until the phone rang.

Serena got up, but Mamoru shook his head. "Keep working. I'll get it."

Serena watched him go, pouting. She got up & followed him.

"Sure." He turned & motioned to Serena. "It's for you."

Serena took the phone. "Hello?"

"Hey, Serena! Who's the hottie that answered the phone?" the familiar voice of Raye Hino came on.

Serena groaned inwardly. Leave it to Raye to assume Mamoru was hot. Okay, so he was, but still…

She turned back & was relieved that Mamoru had gone back to his homework. Serena ran upstairs & shut her door. "His name is Mamoru & it's the same guy from this afternoon!"

Raye laughed. "Not fair, you get hot guys & all I get are crows."

Serena laughed with her. Raye asked, "So how hot?"

Serena bit her lip. "On a scale of 1-10, 11! His stomach is just…whoa. He's wearing this tight black shirt that shows everything off."

Raye giggled. "Go on."

"The black pants he's wearing totally show off his ass & it is fine!" Serena giggled.

Raye gasped. "Serena! You are so boy-crazy!"

Serena shook her head. "No, if you saw him, you would understand."

"Fine. I'm coming over!"

"Wait, Raye!" But she was gone already. Serena sighed. "Well, it won't be that bad."

She walked back downstairs & returned the phone. She walked back to the kitchen, where Mamoru looked up, smiling. Serena tried her hardest not to melt.

"Took you long enough." he joked.

"Well, you know teenage girls…" Serena sat back down to finish her English homework.

Mamoru laughed & Serena smiled.

They worked some more on the homework until the doorbell rang. Mamoru got up, but Serena followed him.

Looking out the peephole, he leaned back. "Do you know someone with long black hair?"

Serena nodded. "Yeah, that's Raye."

Mamoru nodded & opened the door. "Hello."

Raye stared at him. She was wearing a black glamour puss dress with a silver fairy pendant necklace. On her feet, she wore dark blue denim warrior princess strap heels. Her hair was curly & she wore lipstick & mascara.

Serena stared at her, shocked. "Um, Raye?"

Raye stopped staring at Mamoru & turned to Serena. "Hey, Rena!" She smiled, stepping in & taking off her shoes. "I'm having problems with the math homework. You wanna help?"

Serena stared at her. "You're asking me for help with math homework?"

Raye shrugged. "Hey, Amy was busy at her computer class."

Serena nodded. "Sure. Let's go."

Raye stopped. "Hi, I'm Raye Hino." she introduced herself.

"Mamoru." He smiled.

"Do you have a last name?" she asked, shooting him a smile.

"Chiba." he said, walking into the kitchen.

Serena began to follow him, but was stopped by Raye. "You weren't kidding me when you said he was hot!" she whispered into her ear.

Serena blushed. "I can't believe you Grandpa let you out in that." She motioned to the dress.

"Well, he didn't exactly know." Raye said, shrugging her shoulders.

Serena stared at her, waiting to imply. But Raye didn't. She just walked into the kitchen, smiling.

Serena watched her go & looked down at her own clothing. She sighed. "Note to self; next time there's a hot guy in your house, don't call Raye." She smiled & walked into the kitchen.

Whoa, who will 'Mamoru' choose? Raye or Serena? Will he choose either of them? And will Serena ever realize who Mamoru really is? Please RR.
