Darien walked up the stairs to their apartment. Yes Serena and Darien's apartment. That is a funny story actually. They were dating yes, but Serena didn't like her apartment very much. Serena spent the whole summer at his house because of the thunderstorms and he couldn't forget himself, she loved him. He ended up asking her to move in since she wasn't ever using her apartment.
Darien walked in, "Hi, sweetheart, I'm home. Are you ready to go out to dinner?"
Serena walked out of the kitchen. She looked nervous and, nervous and shy, shy was the other word he was looking for, "Umm, about that." She was never a shy person, at least that he knew.
"Serena, what's wrong? Did you accidentally put dish soap in the dish washer again?" Darien thought, what did she do wrong to get this worried?
Serena didn't do anything just looked at the floor, "Did you use bleach to wash my blacks yet again?"
"Nope," Serena answered, slowly looking up at him then back at the floor.
"Then what did you do?" Darien seemed confused. She wasn't perfect, but she would always got upset with herself when she thought she did something wrong.
"I cooked dinner," Serena replied.
Darien chuckled at her, "Well then we will just have to go out and eat tomorrow."
"Really, we have to wait till tomorrow to eat all that good food?" Serena pouted.
Darien chuckled again. He walked over to Serena and kissed her on the forehead. "No, it means we eat your yummy food tonight, and go out to dinner tomorrow."
"OH, Well I will have to spend the whole day with Mina, so I don't cook again." Serena smiled.
"I think that could work." Darien reminded himself to call Mina after Serena went to bed.
Serena and Darien set the table. Serena's objective this dinner was to find out why Darien wanted to go out to dinner so bad.
They had sat down with their food and were starting their discussion of what they did that day. "So what did you do today my little dumpling?" Darien looked over at Serena. She was giving him an evil glare, but he ignored it.
"Won't you ever stop calling me that?" Serena questioned him ignoring his question.
"No, now you answer my question. Like a normal conversation is held. Someone asks a question, you then answer the question before answering your own. Usako is that better. What did you do today Usako?" Darien sighed.
"Hey be nice, where not enemies anymore, yeah know!" Serena sighed.
"You're still not answering me question for you. Thanks Mamo-chan, I have had a great day, even though I messed up your plans." Darien smiled.
"What's your plan?" Serena knew if she waited long enough he would say something. That way he wouldn't know that it was her attention to find out his plans.
Darien thought for a second, "Why does it matter what my plan is?"
"Then why won't you tell me where we are going?" Serena questioned.
"Because if I did, it would ruin my plan." Darien stated.
"But… How will I know what to wear?" Serena continued to try even though her plan was turning into a catastrophe. Maybe, even she just waited for Darien instead of making dinner, she would already know?
"You look fine as you are." Darien smiled and he wasn't lying.
"Darien," she threw her napkin at him.
He caught it and laughed. "I not telling you anything so stop trying." Darien got up and went to the couch to watch television.
She sighed then tried one more tactic. She got up. Looking sultry and seductive she laid on Darien's chest looking into his eyes. "Why can't you tell me?"
He kissed her on the nose. "Nice try, Usako, but I'm not giving in." He put his arms around her and turned his head to watch TV. Serena gave in and laid against him, she too started to watch TV.
Serena had fallen asleep on Darien. Darien pushed her towards the back of the couch as he got up. He gently picked her up. She cuddled closer to his warmth. He carried her to their room, another long story. He pulled the covers down and put Serena gently down. He undressed her and then put her in her night gown. For further knowledge, he didn't touch her in any bad way. He caressed her cheek and kissed her forehead before tucking her in.
He walked back into the front room, but now he was just in boxers. He picked up his personal phone book. Serena had fun with his phonebook. She knew she was my first girlfriend, but she wanted to find out for herself. She called every number in his book and talked to every one of them. She sighed, apparently she was trying to get some black mail to use against him, and it didn't work. Now, he was using his phone book to black mail her, ok not really, he was using it to keep Serena from finding out his secret.
"Hello?" Andrew answered,
"Hi, Andrew it's Darien, is Mina home?" Darien replied.
"Why, she isn't cheating on me with you is she?"
"I wouldn't tell you if we were," Darien heard Andrew huff on the other side, "Drew you know I'm joking. I already asked her and she said she couldn't betray you and Serena like that."
Andrew started to laugh, "So what do you want?"
"To talk to Mina, I need her assistance in my plan."
"I thought you already asked her." Andrew replied.
"No, she cooked tonight, but she plans on spending the day with Mina, so I thought I could use that to my advantage."
"Only you would do that, Mina the guy you cheat on me with is on the phone," Andrew joked.
Before you start getting a little suspicious, this was a running joke between the couples. Serena is cheating on Darien with Andrew, and Mina is cheating on Andrew with Darien. Darien was cheating on Serena with Mina, and Andrew was cheating on Mina with Serena. I hope no one got left out.
Mina took the phone from her husband, but not before giving her husband a small kiss. "Yes, my lovely Darien?" Mina answered.
"I need you to help me out tomorrow?" Darien replied before he started to tell her his plans for tomorrow.
Well I hope you like this chapter. Please review.
