Chapter five

Out in the Arcade, Rei just stood there and the other girls turned to her and said, "You know what Rei, maybe he is right?" Said Lita, looking at the girl, Ami nodded with to agree with Lita.

"You know what I think we have been too harsh on her, she is Sailor Moon after all and with out her we can't defeat the stronger Enemy." Said Mina, "Also, Darien, believe it or not I think love each other, but that is just the Venus Vibes I am getting from it all."

Rei looked at each girl and said, "believe it or not, I kind of agree with you guys and Darien but I don't think that she will take us back we have hurt her too much. But I think we need to track down that crystal and find the princess none the less." With that they went out of the Arcade and started search for the crystal.

Meanwhile out at the back of the arcade Darien was trying to coax the hurt girl out of the box. Realizing that she wouldn't be coming out he crawled in after her and although they didn't fit, hugged her and just sat there letting her cry. When the tears seemed to have stopped, he said, "Why didn't you tell me they were against you?"

"Because it hurts, plus you have hated me up till now." She said wiping her eyes.

"When did this start?" he pursued,

"Like when we met Mina, and well I am only here until we find the princess they said and they still believe it, but they don't know, Darien and at the moment they are looking for the 7th crystal aren't they?"

"I think so, but I left after I told Rei to get over herself." He said slowly edging them out of the box, seen as it was starting to make him cramp up. "Let's just go to my place and talk about it okay, come on." He picked her up and walked to his car with her bag on his back, so that he could carry her easily. By the time they reached the apartment Serena had fallen asleep again so he put her to bed, he then went and got himself a cup of coffee and sat in the lounge room to study. By about 9:00pm Serena was still asleep and so was he, head back on the back of the chair book sitting lost on the floor, coffee going cold.

The next day Serena woke up first yet again and to wake up Darien she placed her lips over his and stop him from breathing from his mouth, which woke him up instantly gasping for breathe. Serena jumped back laughing, seeing his face, look as though he was a goldfish. "Serena stop laughing," he said warning her, "Meatball head, I mean it." Well calling her 'Meatball head" kind of sent her further into a laughing fit. And Darien seeing one very good way (For him) to make her stop laughing, lunged at her and kissed her only softly on her lips. She stopped immediately realizing he was going to make her look like a goldfish. So just to shock him she kissed him back. He stopped and pulled out and stepped back with the look Serena was waiting for, Serena shrugged and said "Just a wake up call, no harm in it all." And she stood up and moved to the couch. Darien took a few minutes to recover from what had happened, and then stood up and sat next to her leaning forward and grabbing some biscuits that he had left last night and started eating them. "So what are your plans today?" he asked casually looking over at her,

"well seen as I am up I think I will go to school and then maybe go home, no harm in doing that and trying to live a normal life for the moment until I have to reveal 'alter ego' to the other girls."

"Well would you like a lift?"

"Sure why not, but I will so beat you to your car!" said Serena as she grabbed her bag and kind of hobbled to the lift, she got there just as it was about to close and Darien just missed it he had to run all the way down the stairs from the 6th floor, so obviously Serena beat him.

"I still got it, even with a stuffed ankle!" She squealed and jumped into the car as he unlocked it.
