Thanks for all of the wonderful reviews! They are very much appreciated! Well, here is the next chapter!
Missy
After Beryl, Darien seemed to bounce back fast. He asked out Raye, but she refused because she knows that Darien is supposed to be Serena's.
"Raye, why'd you say no? If you're worried about me getting hurt, I'm fine. At least you're not some Beryl. Her, I couldn't take, but you will be good for him."
"If we go out, then it will delay you two from going out and the flames have shown me you are destined to be together."
"If we are 'destined' to be together then we'll be together someday maybe not even in this century, but right now, it's you and him. Go for it."
Raye couldn't find something to say to object. She sighed. "Okay," she said and went to look for Darien.
Why does it seem that he is willing to go out with everybody else, but me? Serena thought.
She sighed.
She didn't join the others for lunch, making an excuse that she had to do some homework.
She went to find a tree and sat under it. She got her journal and started writing a new song. She hummed the tune of it.
"You didn't tell us you could sing too," said an all too familiar voice.
She looked up and saw Jadeite, Nephrite, Zoicite, and Malachite.
"Oh my god!" she screamed and hugged them.
"You didn't keep your promise, so we've come to hunt you down."
"I'm sorry. I've just been busy with stuff here. Does Artemis know you're here?"
"You found out about him? Never mind, no, he doesn't and don't change the subject. You're still in trouble Missy," Jadeite said waving his finer at her.
"I know, but Artemis would want to know right? Come on, let's go."
"Don't you have school?" Zoicite asked.
"Lighten up, I'm ahead, so I don't have to worry about it," Serena replied and laughed at his worried expression. So much like Amy, she thought and shook her head.
They all laughed.
Serena rode on Malachite's back to the office to sign out.
………………………………...
Darien sat next to Raye. He put his arm around her.
He saw Serena sit down and write. He watched four guys come up to her and then she greeted them with a hug.
Darien was boiling, but held it inside. Then he saw them all laugh and Serena hop on one of their backs.
The fork he was holding snapped.
"Darien, are you okay?" they asked concerned.
"Huh? Oh, yeah, I'm fine. It's just that I forgot I had to do something," he said and got up.
He kissed Raye on the cheek.
Short, short, I know, but that was all I could come up with right now. I have a lot going on this week, so I haven't gotten to write a longer chapter with more juicy events. Don't worry; I will have better ones up next week.
