Lunch was a success, a weight seemingly lifted off his chest as he watched Serena happily chat away with Mina, occasionally allowing herself to be pulled into one of the various conversations going on around her. The group was currently walking down to the local ice cream shop, Serena's baby blues managing to convince them all that sundaes was something that they all needed to have. Lost in his thoughts, Darien almost failed to notice the incoming football…… almost, with lighting quick reflexes, Darien dodged the ball, his hands coming up to literally pluck the football from the air as it zoomed past his head. Glancing around for the culprit, Darien wasn't surprised to see the grinning faces of Chad and Andrew, however he was surprised to see the familiar yet scarcely seen midnight blue hair of Sapphire.
Sapphire was one of the groups closest friends, his intrinsic nature meaning he preferred to go it alone, belonging to no ones kiss in particular. He'd been offered several places in several kisses, turning each one down politely enough that he was able to seek help when the need arose. But, it wasn't Sapphire's stunning good looks and numerous talents that caused him to bond more with Darien's kiss than any of the others, no, it was the deep seated hatred that the two men held for Diamond, Sapphire's own brother and the reason Sapphire had first been ousted of his original kiss.
Mentally shaking his head to dispel the thoughts hoping to take residence, Darien tossed the ball back to its owner, taking Sapphire's mocking smile as a challenge. Eyes gleaming, Darien glanced around his surroundings and spotting the park, ambled over to it, his voice calling back to the group to follow. Contagious grins flashed across all the guys' lips as Darien shrugged off his jacket, stretching his neck as he waited for the rest of them to join. The girls, minus Lita, sat on the grass as the guys, plus Lita, engaged in a competitive footy match, tackles flying all over the place, every man for himself with Lita in the make shift goal.
Lita's reflexes were amazing and Serena commented on them, listening as the girls regaled her with tales of Lita's rather colourful past, giggling whenever one of the guys made a fool of himself. About an hour later, the guys began taking off their shirts; sweat dripping down their muscular bodies as they upped the ante of their game. Serena felt herself growing warmer and squirmed in her seat, pleased to find she wasn't the only one affected by the sight if Mina's "Fuck, they're hot" and the agreeing murmurs of Raye and Amy were anything to go by. But she wasn't so pleased when she caught the lustful murmurings of a gaggle of girls who were also admiring the lush sight of the guys playing football.
Seeming to sense her anger, Raye followed Serena's glare and felt her own anger stir as she watched one of the girls playfully twirl her hair round her finger as she sent Chad a wink, something his was quick to reciprocate with a grin that had the girls swooning. As the rest of the girls joined in with charming the guys Serena felt her glare deepen, the arrival of Lita from the goal doing nothing to disturb the murderous images shooting through her mind at furious speeds. Somewhere along their link Serena caught the distant feelings of smugness from Darien. He knew that she was watching as some floozy laid her hand on his arm and he was enjoying her jealousy. Fuming, Serena forcefully turned her eyes away from the scene, searching for something to occupy her mind with and found the perfect distraction in a group of good-looking lads who periodically looked their way.
Smirking to herself, she nudged Mina and indicated the guys with a casual tilt of her head. She watched as Mina assessed the guys critically before an evil smile found its way across her lips. It didn't take someone with a genius IQ to understand Serena's silent message and considering the group actually held a genius that was saying something. Almost as one the girls rose to their feet, dusting themselves off before proceeding towards the guys. The guy's attentions switched from the admiring girls before them to the approaching beauties, waiting for the girls to claim the guys as theirs as they normally would in this sort of situation. So it was absolutely no surprise when the girls bypassed them without as much as a look their way. Stunned the guys watched as they girls chattered between themselves before approaching a group of guys hanging out behind where they'd just been playing football.
Apprehensively, they watched as the guys literally came to life, inviting the girls to join them… and join them they did, the girls all managed to pair off with someone, engaging them in conversations, all the while managing to touch their chosen person various times during the conversation. That coupled with the fact that they were giving off sultry laughs and smouldering come hither looks was enough for the guys, who were fuming as they watched their girls, in the case of Andrew, Chad and Darien or their potential girl in the case of Sapphire with Amy flirt with guys who obviously weren't them. Not even bothering to say bye to the girls they'd been chatting with, the guys collectively made their way towards where the girls were now sitting.
A sly smirk appeared on Serena's face as she leant forward to whisper something into Seiya's ear. She could feel Darien fuming through their link and was innately aware of his approach. Turning to face the guys as the stopped by the group, she raised an eyebrow, querying their actions.
"Is there something we can help you with gentlemen?" Raye's calm voice did nothing to hide the underlying threat it contained. She flickered her hair back and leant more solidly onto Jedite's embrace, enjoying the look of pure outrage that appeared on Chad's face. She turned her head and found her brother glaring rather heatedly at Serena and the guy next to her, surprised that the guy hadn't vaporised already, the glare was that intense. Surveying the rest of the group, she saw Mina already arguing with Andrew, Amy having a seemingly heated discussion with Sapphire and Lita thoroughly enjoying herself while she snuggled up against one of the new guys, named Alan, gleefully watching the proceedings.
However, before Raye could contemplate more on the potential of Lita and Alan hooking up, she was rudely pulled out of her thoughts by Chad grasping her wrist and literally wrenching her out of a very disgruntled Jedite's grip. Huffing, she yanked her wrist out of his hand before storming away, fully aware of Chad's angry form striding behind her and so missed Darien literally hurling Serena over his shoulder and carrying the protesting blonde away from the equally protesting Seiya.
Darien's smirk was cold as he felt Serena's little fists thumping against his back, her ass swaying near his face as she desperately tried to get him to put her down. Angered at her earlier flirting with someone that wasn't him and tiring of her constant squirming, Darien laid a very firm smack to her butt, pleased when she instantly stilled in disbelief at his actions. It wasn't until he caught a fleeting thought along their link, that Darien realised that that might not have been the wisest thing to do. Sighing, he put her back on her feet and wasn't at all surprised when she whirled on her heel and stormed away from him, Darien hurriedly moving after her, his hand managing to grasp her upper arm and pull her round to face him. Her eyes were blue eyes, a fire snapping vividly in them as they regarded Darien, her whole body tense and radiating her anger at his actions. God she really was beautiful like this.
Looking away, he released her arm, running a hand through his hair before glancing back at her, not surprised that her expression hadn't changed in the slightest. Heaving a sigh her mentally informed her that he'd take her back home.
Darien winced as she slammed the car door. Fuck. Wearily dragging his body out of the car, he ambled up to her apartment, glad that he hadn't been trapped in the lift with her as he was sure he wouldn't have survived. Slightly pleased that she'd left her door open for him, he was unprepared for the sight of her clothes littering her floor in an obvious trail to her bathroom. A grin burst onto his face, until he tried the bathroom door and found it locked. Cursing loudly he was sure he heard say the words "that'll teach him, egoistical jerk" over the spray before he let his head rest upon the door.
No he had two options, to "magically" open the door using his powers and endure her wrath or to let her cool down and come to him…… guess which one he chose.
Serena let out a startled scream when she felt his body pressed up against her back, her head whipping round to stare at him. How dare he have the audacity to ignore her wishes of wanting to be alone. Shaking with fury she spun round, her hands attempting to push him away, but finding her hands locked in his much larger ones as he hooked them round her neck and lifted her up, his hands now wrapping round her legs and forcing them around his waist. She looked down, angrily startled into his eyes, unable to look away from the anger clouding his own eyes. She cried out as he harshly thrust up into her, his hands on her hips roughly guiding her down to meet his thrust to increase their pleasure.
Unable to look away, Serena rode him hard and fast, their anger seeping out into their movements as she quickly reached her peak, a scream ripping its way out of her throat and only looking away as her eyes closed and he groaned before pressing a stinging kiss to her lips. Lazily opening her eyes, she realised that Darien hadn't reached his peak yet, something further emphasised as he continued moving in and out of her body, building her body back up until the two of them came together, their breathing harsh in the small space her bathroom provided.
She unwrapped her legs from around his waist and slid down his body, shivering as her still sensitive body reacted to his. She watched through hooded eyes as he let out a small groan, his own eyes hooded as he gazed down at her.
"We need to talk."
