This fic will be ending soon because I think I've dragged it on for too long. Also I've promised to do a sequel to my last fic, The Random Adventures of Darren Shan, plus I'm currently writing 30 Ways to Annoy Darren Shan Characters and The Saga of Sam Grest and I've been asked to continue my Monster High fic. So, yeah, a lot of fic writing.

Steve: Hey, Daryl! You did it last chapter! It's my turn!
Crepsley: I'm surronded by idiots!
Evra: I missed you, Xina!
Xan: Oh, great! She's back!
Nameless OC: Wow, this is a hella long disclaimer.
SL: You're right! I don't own The Saga of Darren Shan or any of it's characters!
Everyone: *Stares at me*
SL: Well, you were taking too long!
"Where was I last chapter?" Evra asked.
"Where was I?" Daryl cried. "I mean, I am the main character after all."
"But I'm the Boss' waifu*." Steve frowned. (A/N It took my spell check quite a while to realize 'waifu' isn't a word XD)
"I was in the last chapter!" Xan boasted. "Maybe that means that the Boss likes me better than all of you."
Everyone laughed.
"Come on, Xan. You know that's not true." Daryl said.
Xan pouted and folded her arms. "So anyway, what are we doing this chapter? If nobody's thought of anything then I'd be happy to return to my tent and read Twilight."
"Actually, Xan, I wanted to ask you something…" Daryl's voice trailed off as she considered what to say next.
"Of course I'll marry you!" Xan exclaimed before the raven-haired girl could say anything.
Daryl chuckled. "That's not what I wanted to ask you."
"Good, because Xan would be in for a very painful future if it was." Steve muttered darkly.
Daryl looked at the boy next to her disapprovingly for a moment but said nothing. "Anyway," She continued. "What I wanted to ask you was if you could change me back into a boy. I mean, it's been pretty fun sharing a tent with you and all but I don't think I can get used to this. We can still be friends if you change me back, I promise. Please, Xan. It would mean a lot to me."
Everyone was silent for a moment. Daryl and Evra were looking hopeful; both for different reasons while Steve didn't care either way. Suddenly Xan looked up and muttered one syllable,
"Fine."
Daryl's face lit up. "Really?"
Xan smiled. "Really. But only if you're 100% sure. There might be someone keeping you from making the decision."
"What do you mean by that?" Daryl enquired.
Xan shot a look at Evra that meant: This is your chance, Snakey! Say something before it's too late! Somehow the snake-boy understood. He took a step towards Daryl and grabbed both her hands.
"Daryl," He breathed. "I love you."
He leaned into kiss the girl of his dreams like in his fantasies but was pushed out of the way by a jealous Steve.
"I love you too, Darren," The grey-haired boy purred. "But I don't care whether you're a boy or a girl."
By now Daryl's face was as red as a tomato. She didn't think it could get any worse until Xan put a hand on her shoulder and whispered,
"I love you too."
She looked at Xan, then at Steve, then Evra. She thought about how close she was to each of them. Would her being a boy or a girl change all that? Steve said he didn't care, but what about Evra and Xan? She loved her friends; she didn't want to lose them over something as stupid as what gender she was.
"I-I don't know what to say." She murmured.
"You don't have to choose right now," Xan said.
"Yeah, and forget about I said," Evra told her. "I love you and you do make a cute girl but if you want to be a boy again, it's your choice."
"I don't have anything dramatic to say so…" Steve gave Daryl an extra long kiss on the lips. Xan could've sworn she saw some tongue.
"So what? You can kiss her and I can't?" Evra whined.
"Yes," Steve grinned. "Anyway, readers, all of you have to vote. Do you want Darren to stay a girl, or should he turn back into a boy? And should he end up with me? Or one of those two? It's no competition really."
"What's that supposed to me?" Evra growled.
"Well, only one reader likes Xan. And you, well, you're just you." Steve explained.
"Someone likes me?" Xan gasped.
"Someone likes Xan?" Evra echoed, earning him a slap from Xan.
"I know, it was a surprise to me and the Boss too," Steve stated.
"Let's just end this chapter!" Xan shouted.
"Right. So, vote or the Boss and I will hunt you down. And you better vote me." Steve concluded.
"Or, if he's a little scary for you, you can always vote me." Evra added.
"Or me. I'm adorable." Xan smirked.
"Say something, Darren!" Steve commanded.
"Something, Darren."
*Waifu = Engrish for 'wife' XD Yes, Steve is my waifu even though he's male FTW
