Tutor
"I still can't believe you passed the high school exam with higher scores than Amy." Raye said as they got their classes. It had been two weeks since they'd started high school and Raye was still in shock.
"Raye like I said before, I'm not stupid I just preferred to spend my time playing sailor V games and reading manga," Serena said as she parked her car in her reserved parking space.
"What made you have a change of heart?" Mina asked.
"Daddy threatened to cut me off, because he said if my grades didn't pick up that meant I was stupid and stupid people can't run companies, so I had to prove him wrong and show him that I could run his business."
"Yes, but do you realize that your in a higher math class than Amy, Serena your already in Calculus and Amy is in pre-cal and your freshmen," Raye said.
"I kind of realized that when I was doing a shit load of homework last night."
"Raye drop it now come on Serena we'll be late for Advanced physics and than we have advance chemistry," Amy said hooking her arm with Serena. They waved to the girls and hurried off to class before they were late.
"Hey Serena!" some called. She merely waved not bothering to look and see who it was.
"Serena can't wait for music, see ya there!"
"Same here!" Serena called back.
"Serena, are you trying out for the swim team?" Molly asked coming up beside her.
"Of course Molly I promised you I would, didn't I?"
"Yes, well I just wanted to inform you that we can get out of P.e. if we also join the dive team."
"Why?" Amy asked.
"Because the dive team wins every year and its luxury they've acquired I mean all you have to do is show up at your P.e. Class, do the exercises like a warm up, and than report to the pool to practice diving," Molly said quickly.
" Hey Amy you should try out I remember you were an excellent diver at the pool this summer," Serena suggested excitedly.
"I don't know Serena we promised Mrs. Sasaki that we would do the science bowl for physics."
"Oh swim and dive team only practice on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays," Molly stated.
"Well I suppose we could do it I mean we only meet for physics Mondays, Fridays and early morning Saturdays."
"How early, because we might run into a meet for swim and dive."
"Well meets don't start until eleven at least and we'll be at the library, so it wouldn't take long to get to the pool."
"Unless its at another school," Amy put in.
"Well than we could have our meeting on Sunday instead then ."
"Good thinking," Molly said."Well I have to go." They nodded as she ran off and they entered their advanced physics class.
"Serena Tsukino!" Mrs. Sasaki yelled.
"Yes ma'am." Serena said jumping in surprise.
"How is it that you're passing my class when all you do is day dream?" She asked.
"I don't ma'am, but I'll be sure to tell you once I figure it out." The class laughed, but she didn't. It wasn't her intention to smart mouth the teacher.
"You'll watch your tongue now pay attention."
"Yes ma'am." Serena said. She was paying attention until she saw Darien Chiba in the court yard of her high school. She couldn't figure out why he would be here.
"Perhaps he's looking for me," Serena thought with a small smile. Serena proceeded to day dream about that weekends meeting in the club between her and Darien.
"Serena!" Mrs. Sasaki snapped.
"Yes!" Serena exclaimed. She looked around to see that the class was emptying of its students and Amy was just walking up beside her.
"You'll be happy to know class is over." Serena gave her a weak smile and quickly grabbed her things. She followed Amy out.
"She's gonna kill me one day."
"Nonsense Serena she just wants you to stop day dreaming," Amy defended.
"Don't defend her, and anyway I was until I saw Darien outside the window."
"What would Chiba-san be doing here?" Amy asked. Serena shrugged.
"I don't know, but I'm gonna find out." Serena loved how clueless Amy could be. Usually she was very observant, but today she didn't even notice that Serena's whole opinion about Darien had seemed to change. She shook her head and went to her locker and switched her physics book for her chemistry. Amy had to go down several more lockers before she could do the same.
"Oh math time," Serena groaned as the lunch bell rang just as Molly, Amy, and herself worked out how they could possibly be on the physics team and do swim and dive team. Lita was thinking about doing wrestling and she was sure she could beat out all the boys. They grinned and encouraged her.
"You know, you could try the Girls basketball team too Lita, I hear they're looking for tall girls." Lita laughed.
"Yea, I am pretty tall, but I prefer to wrestle." Molly nodded.
"Rei, Mina you two never said what you wanted to do." Amy said.
"Oh well um...I've been practicing for soccer, my parents really wanted me to join the soccer team, I use to play when I was younger," Mina blushed.
"Oh Mina I hope you aren't embarrassed," Raye laughed.
"No, no its just awkward talking about it," Mina replied.
"Well we'll all be cheering for you," Serena said cheerfully.
"Thanks, and what about you Raye?"
"Martial Arts club." Raye said as if it were that obvious and it was.
"Great, can't wait." Serena walked into her math class five minutes later just before the bell rang. She took her seat in front and crossed her legs as she took out her notebook. Mr. Kudo walked in and shut the door.
"Listen up!" he yelled obviously in a bad mood." All you freshmen are doing poorly as usual, so as usual we've got college students to come tutor you when I call your name and tutor you will meet him or her after school in the library, is that clear?"
"Yes sir," The freshmen replied. Serena was the last one on the list she knew and took the liberty to talk to Natasha a distant cousin who had lived in Russia all her life. She was lucky her father was into politics and she was wealthy. Natasha was a senior and head cheerleader.
"Tsukino, Serena you will be paired with Chiba, Darien." Serena turned to face her teacher quickly.
"Who?" Serena asked.
"Chiba, Darien and if you're unhappy than that's to bad I've made my decision," Mr. Kudo said."You will work out when it is the best time for you to meet with your tutor."
"Yes Mr. Kudo." School dragged on for two more hours and finally it was over.
"Serena, let's go," Raye said impatiently.
"Shut up Raye or you can walk," Serena said unlocking her car. They got in and Serena dropped them off at the Arcade.
"I'll catch up with you guys in a few, Mr.Kudo insisted we get a tutor, so now I have to go meet him at the library."
"Alright hurry back," Mina said. Serena nodded and drove off to go meet Darien at the library.
"You will be mine Darien Chiba before this tutoring gig is up," Serena whispered to herself as she watched him from afar. She fixed her hair, checked her make up, and straightened her clothes before walking into the library to an oblivious Darien.
