Serena and Molly looked at millions after millions of dresses but couldn't find just the right one. "It's no use Molly, I just can't find the right one!" Serena said as she sat down on a bench, exhausted from all of this dress hunting. Molly sighed. "I know, I can't find one either. How come you can find the most perfect dress when you don't need it and then not find one when you really do need it?" Molly said as Serena laughed. "Yes, well...." Serena stopped in mid-sentence.
She saw a dress in a window of a store that caught her eye. It was a beautiful long white dress that looked like it shimmered under the lights, it was held up by spaghetti straps. "Molly, I think I've found the perfect dress." She said as she smiled brightly at it.
The next morning at the hospital, Darien decided to get out of his room and walk around a bit since his legs were stiff from being in that small bed most of the time. He wore his clothes that he had worn when he was first brought in. The bloodstains on his shirt were gone. Serena had taken the opportunity to wash his clothes, since that was the only pair he had with him. He sighed as he thought about the golden haired angel, who had nursed him back to health, every chance she got. He passed a notice bored on his way down a hall. A poster had caught his eye. It was poster advertising the charity ball for the hospital that was to be held this coming weekend.
'It says it's for the hospital doctors and nurses but they can bring friends and family. Maybe I should ask Serena to this. It would be a first date for her and I but hell, I have to try.' He thought to himself as he kept walking down the hallway. But while he was walking, he bumped into someone, knocking them down. "Oh, sorry I wasn't paying attention and...." Darien stopped his apologies for a moment to actually look at the person he knocked down.
It was a doctor all right, but not the one Darien really wanted to see. It was Allen. He glared up at Darien while getting up off of the floor. "So, we meet again Shields. I didn't think it would be so soon." Allen said, giving Darien an evil look. "Neither did I, Allen." He said while turning around and walking off, but Allen stopped him. "Oh yes, and I should thank you for giving me this high position in this hospital and stealing MY girlfriend!" He said angrily. Darien smirked.
"Well, all I can say for the employment part is you only got here because you cheated your way to the top by discouraging the other head doctors and tricking them. The company only gave you this job because you bribed them as well, I'm the only one who knew though." Allen smirked back. "Yes, that's the only way you can get to the top in life now, Shields." He said. Darien frowned. "You could have tried the honest way you know. It might have taken longer, but you could have been in a better hospital than this one." Allen was getting a little annoyed. "You take the honest way because you're such a goody-goody and you're also stupid and naive, aside from me, I don't give a damn and I'm smart." Darien smirked. "Then if you're so smart, why isn't Serena your girlfriend anymore? And I didn't steal her, I asked her, honestly and she gladly accepted. So get off your high horse and set your priorities straight." Darien said as he began walking back to his room. He suddenly turned back around to Allen. "Oh, and Allen?" He looked up at Darien with hatred in his eyes. "Yes?" He said though gritted teeth. Darien got a sly smile.
"It's Mr. Shields to you." He said as he waited for a reaction. Allen was boiling with anger. So, the only thing he decided to do was give Darien the middle finger and walked off. Darien chuckled. "Ooh, so scary, the middle finger, I'm gonna die!" Darien called down the hall to Allen and walked back to his room to wait for Serena to check him out.
Later, Darien sat in his room, just thinking. Darien was the CEO of the very hospital that Serena worked at. He was very popular with every one of his associates one included Anne. She had begged him and begged him to go out with her. He didn't know why he did it, but he asked her to be his girlfriend. So, of course she was happy. Darien hadn't really given any thought to it before he had asked her to be his girlfriend. But with Serena, he had lots of time to think about it.
Only a week after he had asked Anne out, she started being a horrible witch to him and she always tried to steal his money. After about a month, Darien had had it with her, the only logical thing to do was dump her. She didn't take it very well, so she said she couldn't stand him anyway and left the company to be a lawyer in another city. Darien was sort of grateful for that. After that, he had the problem of getting a new head doctor for the hospital, since the old one retired. So, he and his associates went though millions upon millions of resumes and singled it down to five, one of them happening to be Allen.
Like Darien had said before, he had cheated his way to the top. Darien had already made up his choice for the new doctor, a very trustworthy man named Andrew. But the company refused to put Andrew in and made Darien put Allen in. He had no choice. But Darien knew that Allen had cheated, somehow. A little while later, he had heard about the new doctor in the hospital, Serena Tsukino.
He didn't give much thought to her, until he met her in the park. He thought she would be snobby and self-conceited. But to his surprise, she wasn't. She was everything he wanted in a girlfriend, beautiful, polite, caring; oh there were one too many words to describe her. Darien lay back on his bed, and daydreamed.
He got a few daydreams about Serena and some about her he'd rather not mention. "Are you ready to go home, or are you going to sleep all day?" Said an angelic voice. Darien's eyes snapped open to find Serena standing beside his bed, smiling. He sat up and smiled back and stretched. "I think I've done enough sleeping to last me a lifetime." He said making her laugh. "Well, come on, I already called you a cab to take you home." She said as he followed her. She checked him out and they were on their way to the front entrance.
Serena and Darien both stopped at the front entrance. She turned fully to Darien and he did the same. "Can I ask you...." They started at the same time. Serena turned to the side and blushed while Darien rubbed the back of his neck. "Why don't you ask your question first, Serena?" He said as he looked at her embarrassingly. She blushed. "No, mine is probably not all that important. You ask yours first." Darien smiled and gulped. 'Well, here goes nothing.' He thought to himself as he cleared his throat and started to ask.
"You know that charity ball that the hospital is throwing this weekend?" He asked nervously. Serena nodded. "Yes?" She thought about this before he continued. 'Oh my god, he may be asking me! I hope so, I hope to god!' Serena thought desperately. Darien smiled and hoped he wouldn't loose his voice or courage before he got the chance to ask.
"Well, would you....would you like me to be your date for the ball?" he asked as he blushed a little. Serena's eyes brightened. "Oh Darien, I would love to go with you!" She said as she jumped into his arms and hugged him. Darien hugged her back and chuckled.
"Give me your phone number and I'll see you this weekend, Serena." He said as he smiled one of his best smiles. Serena quickly took out a pen and a piece of paper and scribbled her phone number on it and gave it to him. Darien smiled and walked out though the sliding doors and to the cab and sped off. Serena sighed as she watched him go. 'There goes my prince charming, hopefully.' Serena thought as she went back inside and tended to some other patients.
