Thanks so much… (Notes to reviewers at the bottom)
! Rumors !
It has only been like two weeks since we got
back together... Back to being "Serena &
Darien: The Cute Couple". But that just didn't
sound right to me anymore.
Everywhere I turned, there was someone saying
that Darien did this, or Darien did that. I
didn't know what or who to believe.
I finally got fed up of all the rumors and
wanted to know what was going on.
I looked around for Darien but I couldn't find
him. You could even say that I went so low as
to ask the teachers if they had seen him or
not. Then finally, after school I saw
Andrew standing by his locker so I went up to
him.
"Hey Andrew!" I said with a smile.
"Hi Sere, what's goin' on?" he asked with a
sweet smile which most girls went crazy over.
"Oh nothing, have you seen Darien around? I
can't seem to find him anywhere." I said,
hoping that I wasn't pouting.
"Nope, haven't seen him since this morning,
why? Did something happen?" He replied
sounding concerned. Wow… I couldn't help but
think that Andrew's eyes give off such a safe
feeling. But nothing could beat Darien's eyes.
"Its just... I'm hearing all these things
about him. Its either 'He was with this girl'
or 'he was too close with that girl' but
something's are kind of believable... and
I don't know what to believe." I didn't know
why, but I trusted him so much that I just
poured everything out.
With the same beautiful green eyes as before
Andrew just looked at me with a look of
surprise and concern, "Oh wow... you both
need to talk things out together, I don't
know what's going on. He's hearing things
about you, and your hearing things about
him. If you want, I'll tell him that you
need to talk to him."
I smiled at him and said "Yeah, thanks...
but what do you mean he's hearing things
about me? What kind of things?"
He looked down, and just said "You gotta
talk to him, ask him. This is between you
two. Well I have to go now, so I'll talk
to you later. Bye."
I looked at him trying to figure out what I
had said to make him want to leave so fast,
but I didn't have enough time because he
turned around and walked away.
'This is getting way too strange,' I thought
to myself, 'What could he possibly be hearing
about me? What did I do?'
--That Night--
I was going to call him, Then I thought that
he should call me, plus with the way he was acting I
didn't feel like talking to him any more.
Just when I picked up my book to read the phone rang.
I ran to the living room and picked it up.
"Hello?" I said.
"Hey Sere" it was Darien.
"Oh, hey Darien" I replied in a rather flat
tone not sure if I had sounded rude or
anything.
"Yeah, Andrew told me that you needed to
talk to me or something?" He said in his
what-ever-it-is-it-better-be-important type
of voice.
"Yeah..." at that moment I was starting to wish
that Andrew and I hadn't talked.
"So what is it?" he said sounding annoyed
for some odd reason.
I took a deep breath and started to explain,
"Well... see... I've been hearing so many
things from people, about you being with this
girl or that girl, or even flirting with some
other girl… I don't believe most of it, but
some things kind of sound believable and..."
"Whoa! Hold up, where are you hearing all
this? I haven't been flirting with any other girl.
If I wanted some other girl I wouldn't
have asked you back out. But you on the other
hand, flirting with my best friend? Is that
okay?" he said as he raised his voice to a
point where he almost got me in tears.
"What are you talking about? I don't even
like Andrew in that way! He's just a friend to
me! I barely talk to him!" I yelled, my anger
rising quite quickly.
"Yeah ok... don't yell at me" he said
sounding bored and uninterested.
"Ask yourself this, if I liked your best
friend, why would I have said yes to you? Why
would I still be with you?" I said, ignoring
what he said.
"I gotta go now, bye" Darien said suddenly,
not really sounding like he cared about what I
had just said.
"Yeah, Bye" I said and hung up before he
heard me crying.
I ran back into my room and jumped onto my
bed, tears came rolling out of my eyes, no
matter how hard I try to not cry, tears always
seem to find their way out of my eyes, and
down my cheeks.
'Why is all this happening to us... Please
God, help me get through this... Please...' I
thought as I cried myself to sleep.
--Next Day--
I walked to school the next morning, thinking
about the phone call.
I looked up at the morning sky, it was so beautiful,
so calm. 'Why can't my life be like that?' I wondered
to myself.
The morning classes went by pretty quickly,
and lunch came very fast.
After eating lunch, I didn't want to sit down
so I went walking with Rye, Ami, Mina, and
Trista. I didn't really feel like being
with them so I told them that I was going to
go to the field.
They said that they wanted to come too, but I
told them that I really wanted to be alone to
think about a few things. After several
minutes of arguing with them, they finally
gave in and let me go by myself.
When I got to the field, I looked around for
a place to sit. There was a circle of rocks
behind the play area for the little kids, so I
sat there.
Ten minutes passed without me noticing, and I
saw Andrew walking towards me.
I wondered if Andrew knew what Darien had
heard about me liking him. It seemed like
Darien had made an effort to avoid him.
"Hey Sere!" He yelled out from about 20 meters
away.
"Hi Andrew" I said when he came closer.
"Why are you here all by yourself? Normally
you have at least 2 girls around you." He said
with a hint of sarcasm.
I made a face at him and laughed, "Well a
girls got to have her space you know."
"That's true, especially you. So, did you talk
to Darien and sort things out?" He asked with
a smile.
I looked down at my fingers and replied, "Yeah we
talked last night, but I'm not sure if we sorted things out
or not. It was mostly asking each other questions, and
then yelling at each other."
"Oh wow... Do you know what he heard? He hasn't
really talked to me properly for a little while." He
sounded worried, like a real friend should.
"Yeah, he told me. He thinks that I like you. But I told
him that we're just friends, and that if I liked you I
wouldn't be with him."
"Then what did he say?" He asked.
"Then he said 'Yeah Ok'. I really don't know why he's
getting all mad. Its not like I'm into every single guy I see
and talk to." I said as I rolled my eyes.
"He loves you a lot I guess, I don't think he wants to
loose you again."
"I guess... I love him too.. I don't want to loose him
either..." I sighed.
"Well, we should get going, the bell is about to ring at
any minute, and if I get late again I'm going to have
detention again!"
giggle "I definitely don't want you to have detention,
lets go then." I said as I got up from the rock I was sitting
on.
We walked up to the intermediate doors and we saw
Darien standing there.
I was laughing at Andrew's weird jokes and he was
laughing too. It was the worst possible situation that
could have happened after the little argument yesterday.
Andrew and I put on a serious face, we knew Darien very
well, and we knew what would happen if he got way too
mad. We walked right up to him instead of going with
instinct and making a bee-line to my friends.
I smiled at him, despite the fact that I was still kind of
mad about the way he talked to me last night. I stepped
up right beside him and said "Hi Darien"
