A/N: Hey I'm really sorry it has taken such a long time for this chapter but school has started and I'm kind of busy with homework. And then my computer was broken and had to be fixed and I just got it back today. Anyways on with the story.

Chapter 3

I rolled over in bed. I looked at the clock it was 7:00 AM. I never got up this early on a Sunday, back when I lived with my parents. Then all of a sudden I heard claw marks at the door. I pulled the sheets off me and reached over to the chair and got my robe. Then I put my foot on the cold floor. I could feel the coldness go up my legs. I got to the door and grabbed for the handle. Just as I turned it, my cat Luna came running in practically running over me.
"Watch out Luna, what are you trying to do kill me?" I questioned

But I ignored it and walked out to the kitchen, on the counter laid a note, I picked it up. It read,

Hey, Andrew came over really early this morning. So we decided to go out to eat. I would have told you but you get grumpy if I wake you up. Oh and There's a call for you on the answering machine. Ill be back later.
Your friend,

Mina
"I wonder who could have called me." I thought to myself

I walk over to the answering machine and I clicked the button.

It said you have one message.
"Hey it's me Darien I thought maybe we could get together sometime since it's been such a long time...well give me a call Meatball Head. My number is 863-1516.
"Yeah I could just see us going out, we would fight the whole time. But maybe I should I really don't know, we never get along. Maybe for once he wants to try and get along with me and be nice. Yeah right I'm kidding myself." I said out loud

I walk over to the TV room and sit down in a chair and I pick up the remote and I turn on the TV.
"Maybe if I watch some TV I can get this out of my mind." I think to myself

I turn the channel to 43, where they are showing the top 20 countdown. The first music video that plays is Linkin park 'Breaking The Habit'. I sit there and watch the top 20 countdowns. And time it is over I hear the door open.
"Hey Serena I'm back." Mina says

"Yeah I know. I can hear you." I answer

As she walks in to the room where I am she asked, " Did you get the message?"

"Yeah I got it." I answer

"Well did you call him back?" She questions

"No and I don't plan on it." I say in a grouchy voice
"Oh come on Serena you should I know you like him. You just don't want to admit it." Mina says

"Oh you think so. I'm so glad you are so sure." I say

"Serena what do you have to lose? You can at least see if he's trying to change. I will admit he didn't treat you as good as the rest of us. But you could at least give him a chance to change." Mina says
"Fine I will call him if it will get you to shut up. But I know all he will do is bug me. We will get in to a fight, and he will sit there and call me names. And then he will go on and say that if I keep eating like that I'll get fat." I say

"I really think he's trying to change." Mina says

"Yeah but if he insults me I'm leaving or I'll just punch him." I say
Mina just gives me a weird look as I get up and walk to the phone. I pick it up and I put in his number. I can hear the phone ring. And about after 5 rings I hear

"Hello."
His voice is so deep but yet it sounds so kind. Dammit Mina is right I'm falling for him how can this be. But before I can think about it anymore. He says hello again.
"Hey Darien you called." I say

"Hey Meatball Head, yeah I called." Darien says

"Stop calling me Meatball Head." I say

"I was wondering do you want to go out and eat tonight Meatball head?" Darien said

"Okay but this is not a date, I'm only doing it to get a free meal. And how many times do I have to say this stop calling me Meatball Head?" I said

"Yeah sure what ever you say Meatball Head. I'll come and pick you up around 5." He said. But before I can answer I hear the phone click.
"How dare he hang up on me? I should call him back and scream at him." I say out loud. But before I can do it I'm being dragged in to my room.
"Come on Serena we have to pick something out for you to wear." Mina says while she's going through my closet.
"Come on Mina you don't have to throw the close. Your making it look like there was a freakin' tornado in here." I said while I just flopped down on my bed.

Why do I even bother its not like she's going to listen, she's on one of her love missions.
"Come on Serena you have to take this seriously. I mean don't you want to look nice?" She said

It when on like this for hours. It was 3:30pm when Mina finally found something for me to wear.
"Okay Serena we have an hour and a half just enough time for you to get dressed and for me to do your makeup and hair." Mina said

Finally I was already. I walked out of the room wearing a black one-piece dress that stopped above my knees and my hair was up in a messy bun.

"Serena you look perfect Darien won't know what to think." Mina said

Just then the doorbell rang and Mina went to open the door. Darien walked in and just as he came to the living room...

A/N: Hey that's all for now. I' really sorry that it' not a really good chapter. The next one will be better and I will try and get it up faster. But until then let me know what you think of this one.
