Chapter 4: Daddy, Please Believe Me!
Previously in Chapter 3 (Emily's Got the Cat in the Bag
"I hope you don't mind Serena, but I sent a copy of this newspaper to Darien's house," Emily chuckled. "I mean . . . keeping your boyfriend updated is important, right?"
Serena resisted the urge to punch Emily in the nose. Her heart beat faster as Emily found her seat and giggled away.
"Excuse me," said a familiar voice to Serena. Serena turned around and gasped as she saw whom it was. It was . . .
--------------------------------------------------------------------
"Excuse me," said a familiar voice to Serena. Serena turned around and gasped as she saw whom it was. It was a flaming red Ken Tsukino. Serena felt herself shrink as she saw what her father clutched harshly in his hands. It was a school newspaper, of course.
"Um," Serena chuckled nervously, she felt her sweat dropping, "d-daddy, what are you doing here?"
"Well, you forgot your lunch – again," Mr. Tsukino stated in his disciplining father tone, "so I came here to drop it off when I heard a few people talking."
"Oh?" Serena gasped. Her heart was racing and she saw her friends inching away. 'Thanks a lot guys!" she thought in her mind. Having an overprotective father sucked and was extremely hard, especially since Serena's dad caught up with everything in Serena's and Sammy's life.
"Would you care to explain THIS?" Mr. Tsukino emphasized 'this' and held out a copy of the newspaper right in front of Serena's nose.
"Dad, you can't possibly believe that?" Serena suddenly felt enraged that her father didn't trust her and thought that she would do something as stupid as have sex when she's 14.
"I can and I do!" Mr. Tsukino growled. "What with that new boyfriend of yours. I told Irene he was too old for you but no, she told me to 'trust' you and what do you do? YOU FREAKING HAVE –"
"DAD! JUST LISTEN TO ME! I," Serena suddenly realized she was screaming and half the people in the class (school didn't start yet so there weren't that many) were staring at her.
"Let's go out and talk," Mr. Tsukino suggested. Actually . . . it was more of a demand because before she knew it, Serena found herself being dragged to the privacy of the school courtyard.
---Crossroads Courtyard---
There was not a single soul in the courtyard and Serena found it a bit scary. She was alone with a very very very angry overprotective dad with no one around to stop him from blowing a head gasket.
"So . . . nice day, huh?" Serena pointed to the skies (which, by the way, were dark and gloomy with snow falling EVERYWHERE).
"Don't change the s-subject!" Mr. Tsukino shivered. "I want to know what the HELL YOU ARE DOING!"
"Dad, please believe me," Serena pleaded. "I didn't have sex, I didn't get pregnant, and I DIDN'T have an ABORTION! This girl in my class that hates me wrote that! That article is a heaping pile of LIES!"
Suddenly, Ken Tsukino started to soften. He knew that he was being way to harsh on his baby girl and was now sorry for yelling at her so much.
"Oh, sweetie, I'm sorry," Mr. Tsukino hugged Serena as tears streamed down her face.
"Its okay, daddy. I just want to let you know that I didn't! I wouldn't!" Serena smiled.
"Okay . . . but," Mr. Tsukino broke from the hug and was now using his stern voice.
"Oh, great, I don't like the sound of this," Serena sighed as she braced herself for the worst.
"I want you to stay away from what's-his-name!" Mr. Tsukino said forcefully, shattering Serena. Glancing at his watch, he told Serena he had to go and left her there with her mouth wide open in shock.
---Lunchtime in the Cafeteria!---
"Oh, just say the words and I'll smash her face into pieces!" Lita growled. It was lunchtime and Serena always sat with Lita, Amy, Molly, and Melvin, though Molly and Melvin weren't present at that time. Serena just told Amy and Lita the whole thing that happened and Lita was ready to jump down Emily's throat and spew frog guts in there.
"Now, Lita, be civilized," Amy said, being her ever so proper self.
"How can I do that knowing that THAT BITCH DID THAT TO SERENA?" Lita screamed loudly. The entire cafeteria turned to stare at her but Lita didn't budge an inch. Serena was Lita's first friend ever, as well as Amy's, so Lita would do anything for Serena.
"It's okay, Lita," Serena said calmly. "I bet daddy doesn't really mean it. I mean . . ."
"Gr…." Lita sounded like a dog as Emily passed by their lunch table, sticking out her tongue. "Let me just –"
"NO LITA!" Serena and Amy shouted as they tried to restrain Lita from getting all ghetto on Emily. "DON'T!" They tried to hold Lita back but she was to strong for them and ended up going straight to Emily.
"Hey, Emily?" Lita said sweetly, holding up the cookies she baked last night up to her chest.
"Yeah, what?" Emily answered in her usual snobby tone.
"Have some of this!" Lita said before handing Emily her cookies – then smacking her on the face.
To Be Continued . . .
A.N.: Hope this chapter was long enough for you guys! I'm sort of starting to develop writer's block (my ideas are running pretty thin). Summer school does bad things to people, sniff. Only a few more chapters left! I think I'll do two or three more chapters! Next one is going to have a catfight in it, ooh! Look out for it! Review pretty please!
