Chapter: 10

Hmmm ... not too sluttish, not even entirely innocent, not too posh nor too simple ... totally French! Scanning my outfit, I smile triumphantly; just the look I was hoping for!

I'm wearing a black ribbon skirt with slender ribbon zigzags all over a sheer tulle skirt. It's layered over a full silky lining with a back zipper. With it I'm going for a simple yet sleek form-fitting turtleneck with long sleeves, which are banded at the cuffs and waist. And to finish off the look, a leather and fur black, knee-length coat with fur trim at the collar and cuffs and down the front. All completed with black boots!

So, what's the French look for? Well, it's all in aid to nabbing Mr. Perfect which, knowing my luck, is a near enough impossible task. But, since this was the girl's idea I thought I might as well go.

We're meeting at a fancy French café, which, in my opinion, is a bit overrated. I mean seriously, all they've got to offer is a few baguettes and over the top decorations to bring in the 'French atmosphere.'

Stepping out of my car, the first thing I notice about my weird amis was that they were all dressed in black, typical French look. They were seated around a small table outside the place.

"Serena!" Mina cried with an accent. "Enfin!"

All she was really saying was, "At last!" But she gave me this huge grin like she'd said something totally special.

"Bonjour, mes beau copains, ça va?"

"Oui, ça va bien merci. Et toi?"

Mina grinned as we started getting looks from people seated close-by. She'd probably describe them as adoring looks. Personally, I think they're secretly laughing at us. We're supposed to be French, apparently, and here we are seated in a French café. How typical is that, the least we could do is be a bit more adventurous.

"Devine qui j'ai vu heir soir!" Mina screamed in my ear.

Translated into English for us normal 'illiterates': Guess who I saw last night? I rolled my eyes.

"Qui?" I proceeded to take a sip from Raye's glass of water.

"Mei-Ling et Darien!"

All thoughts of acting French left my mind at that instant and, before I could stop myself, I splattered water all over Raye's face. "What!"

"Gee, thanks for that Meatball Head," she muttered as she began wiping herself off with a tissue paper.

Just then a bloke came up to our table. "Could I offer one of you ladies a drink?"

I looked up and I swear my eyes nearly bulged out. What a piece of hunk!

"Merci," Raye butted in before any of us could get a word in.

"Genial!" he announced in a perfect French accent. But, then he reverted back into English. "So, what's your name?" his eyes were focused solely on Raye who was going into full on flirting mode.

"Chantel," she grinned as she introduced herself.

He laughed, "That's a lovely name but no, really, what is your name?"

Raye sighed before putting on a blissful smile; it was totally unbecoming of her true nature i.e. a bitch, "Raye."

"That's an even more gorgeous name. I'm Jadeite," he leaned forward to place a kiss on her hand.

Raye giggled before moving aside to make room for him around the table. He ordered a passing waiter for whatever stupid drink Raye wanted; I couldn't help but sigh ... lucky loser.

Just than another, if it were possible, even more gorgeous hunk sauntered up to our table. His long hair was dyed stylishly silver and he had lovely grey eyes with an absolutely godly body to match, it was all-broad shouldered and tanned. "I see you've made it home here, Jadeite," he muttered as he gave us a curt nod.

I swear I nearly saw love hearts appear in Mina's eyes. "Wow," she sighed under her breath. My reaction exactly.

"I'm Kunzite," he greeted, not even bothering any of us a second glance.

"Mina," she supplied instantly.

"That's nice," he dismissed her easily, "You ready to head back, Jadeite; we've got work to do."

"Chill, Kunzite. We've got enough time for that," Jadeite said.

Kunzite seated himself easily, pulling, a chair from a nearby table.

He gave a carefree grin, "Do you know what the French word for fore-play is?"

Mina sighed out a swift, "No."

"Obviously," he grinned lazily, displaying a set of white, even teeth, "Cause there isn't one."

Mina laughed out loudly. Wait a minute, if I wasn't totally mistaken, he did not just label us 'easy'. But, then again we're not really French are we.

"It was nice meeting you ladies," Kunzite got up five minutes later. "I think we'll be on our way, now."

Raye and Jadeite had already managed to exchange numbers. Mina had tried her best to keep Kunzite's full attention but needless to say, it kept on wandering off to passing women. Lita, growing bored of all the useless flirting, aimlessly began throwing tissue paper pellets at oblivious passer-bys and Amy, too hooked on her former-date was on her own oblivious to everything.

Raye watched longingly as Jadeite got off the chair he was previously seated on.

"So where do you work?" she asked cautiously.

"Shields, corp." he answered simply before giving each of us a wink and a blushing Raye a kiss on the cheek.

After they'd gone, I turned back to Mina, "So where were we?"

"I dunno," she sighed, looking longingly at Kunzite's retreating back.

"About you saying you'd seen Darien and May together?"

"Oh that, well I saw them at Martin's Bar. They looked pretty cosy to me," she added as an after thought.

I looked at Raye for her reaction but she was too busy gazing into oblivion with one hand on her blushing cheek.

A few days later, the girls and I were seated, for once, on a table at the back of the club all day dreaming about one thing or another.

Amy was dancing quite freely (if you get my drift) with Zoicite who I think was totally fixated with her since they spent so much time together. Well, at least, one of us was having some luck.

I managed to sigh again as Lita, who was sitting right next to me, did the same.

"What an evening."

"Tell me 'bout it, there isn't one decent guy around here," Raye muttered, looking bored.

"That's only because you're so obsessed about Jadeite, and he hasn't even rung yet," Mina bit out. Her own obsession with Kunzite was getting the better of her and she was determined to get details as soon as Jadeite got down to ringing Raye, which seemed like a no-show.

It was obvious she still fancied Andrew as well since her eyes kept on drifting towards him, but his eyes were locked on fresher meat i.e. a porn star, well that's what she looked like anyhow. Greg hadn't even decided to show up.

"That's not true," Raye said sounding very unconvincing, "Besides, there is one decent guy around, shame he has no taste!" she indicated towards where Darien and May were sitting whispering 'sweet nothings' into each other's ears.

I looked away abruptly; I was in no mood of depressing reminders.

"At least Amy's having luck in the guy department," Lita sighed wistfully, her own eyes darting towards Ken who was jumping around like a maniac on the dance floor.

We all leaned back in our seats once again and sighed simultaneously. Making sure none of their eyes were on me, I snuck a look around at the women lining the bar. I can't believe I even gave becoming a lesbian a second thought!

I snuck another look at Darien and May and decided to get my sopping butt off the chair to go get a drink. That sight was beginning to make my head hurt and I felt like being sick over something, or someone, preferably Darien or May.

"Hey, you lot want anything? I think I'll pop up to the bar."

"Nothing for me, I'll save your seat," Raye answered without sparing me a glance.

God, we're such a sad bunch!

I sauntered over to the bar and ordered. I know I shouldn't be drinking anything with alcohol but I was too depressed to care. If I crashed my car, I'd just be doing myself a favour. Besides, it wasn't as if I was getting drunk, it was just one drink.

I watched as Mei-ling pulled Darien towards the dance floor, make that two drinks.

She wrapped her arms around his neck and began dancing erotically with him. Three drinks wouldn't do too much harm.

Darien grinned as he moved against her. Four drinks.

I managed to loose count after that.

A few depressing minutes later, someone sidled up next to me. I turned my head. Luckily for me, it wasn't a bastard i.e. a man.

"What's up darling? You look hooked," she soothed as she rested her hand on my thigh.

Unable to help myself, I revealed my entire sorry episode to her and just for good measure I gave a few sobs.

She 'awwed' and cursed at exactly the right places and I didn't even realize when my head had landed on her shoulder.

"You're right, men aren't wroth it," she agreed. "That's why I prefer women."

My head shot up abruptly, "What!"

"It's nothing to be ashamed of. If you don't like men, you might as well go for the opposite sex; they're more caring and understanding."

Maybe it was the drink talking but I found myself agreeing with her. "I think you may have a point."

I've been waiting all day here for ya babe

So won't cha come and sit and talk to me

And tell me how we're gonna be together always

Hope you know that when it's late at night

I hold on to my pillow tight

And think about how you promised me forever

(I never thought that anyone)

Could make me feel this way

(Now that you're here boy all I want)

Is just a chance to say

"See, how about you come dance with me and you decide if you like it or not," she offered.

I made sure we were as close to Darien and May as was humanely possibly and then I let all hell loose.

Get Out, (leave) right now,

It's the end of you and me

It's too late (now) and I can't wait for you to be gone

'Cause I know about her (who) and I wonder (why) how I bought all the lies

You said that you would treat me right but you was just a waste of time (waste of time)

I danced closely against my female accomplice, whose name I didn't even know, and moved my hips against hers as her arms found their way around me.

Tell me why you're looking so confused

When I'm the one who didn't know the truth

How could you ever be so cold?

To go behind my back and call my friend

Boy you must have gone and bumped your head

Because you left her number on your phone

(So now after all is said and done)

Maybe I'm the one to blame but

(To think that you could be the one)

Well it didn't work out that way

I knew Darien's eyes were on me but I totally refused to look at him. I didn't need the jerk ... I had a women with me ...now why didn't that thought make me feel 100 better?

Get out, (leave) right now,

It's the end of you and me

It's too late (now) and I can't wait for you to be gone

'Cause I know about her (who) and I wonder (why) how I bought all the lies

You said that you would treat me right but you was just a waste of time (waste of time)

Suddenly, I felt whatever-her-name-is leaning forward and kissing me smack on the lips and just to prove to Darien that I didn't want him, I kissed her right back. It felt kind of funny actually but her lips were really soft and supple. I felt something very wrong was happening but by that time I was gone totally overboard to realize.

I wanted you right here with me but I have no choice you've gotta leave

Because my heart is breakin'

With every word I'm sayin'

I gave up everything I had

On something that just wouldn't last

But I refuse to cry

No tears will fall from these

Eye-e-es

Oh, oh

Get out

"Do you wanna come home with me?" the mystery girl whispered in my ear.

With one eye still fixed on Darien who'd stopped dancing and was starting right at me, I nodded enthusiastically.

Get out, (leave) right now,

It's the end of you and me

It's too late (now) and I can't wait for you to be gone

'Cause I know about her (who) and I wonder (why) how I bought all the lies

You said that you would treat me right but you was just a waste of time (waste of time)

I strode over to the girls' table and announced my news. They all looked at me with shocked faces.

"You're not going anywhere!" Mina declared pulling me towards her.

I pulled out of her grasp, "But I wanna go," I said almost groggily.

"She's drunk," Raye confirmed and joined Mina in this bizarre game of tug-of-war.

"Gerrof me!" I shoved them both away, when the girl-with-no-name decided to come help me.

"Look, if she wants to go let her, yeah."

Get out, (leave) right now,

It's the end of you and me

It's too late (now) and I can't wait for you to be gone

'Cause I know about her (who) and I wonder (why) how I bought all the lies

You said that you would treat me right but you was just a waste of time (waste of time)

"You're gonna regret this in the morning, Sere," Lita warned as she once again attempted to pull me away with her.

I screamed at the top of my lungs, "For once, just let me do what I wanna do!"

They all blocked their ears up and I chose that exact moment to make a break for it with 'the girl'.

Turning back just once, my eyes locked with Darien's they were still trained on me, a confused look in their depths. He was just standing there and I managed to turn away swiftly, not sparing him a second glance and left him … just standing there …

Get out, (leave) …

You and me … it's too late (now)

About her (who) …

(Why) you said that you would treat me right but you was just a waste of time (waste of time)

Erm … where do I begin, first off yes, I am reposting this story because it was taken off the first time … for some reason. Oh yeah, the song is Jojo's Leave (Get out).
