-----------------------
The final bell for the day rang. Students rushed out of the classrooms eager to get out of school. An elbony haired man made his way through the hallway to a set of lockers. He casually leaned against the lockers while he waited for someone to arrive.
Moments later a pretty blond rushed by him to her locker which he happened to be next to. She ignored him as she put her books away for the day.
"Want to go to the dance with me?" he asked putting on one of his 'you can't resist me' smiles.
"Lets see I told you no when you asked this morning, no when you asked me at lunch, and no when you asked me every period you had with me so I guess I'm going to have to say..." Serena trailed off as she looked at him with a thoughtful expression on her face as she pretended to think it over."No!" she exclaimed, grabbing her bag from the locker and slamming it shut.
She tried to walk away when a strong hand grabbed her wrist and stopped her.
"Let go!" she exclaimed glaring at Darien.
"Not until you tell me why you won't go to the dance with me." Darien said calmly as people walking by began to stare at them.
"I don't have to tell you why."
Darien felt color rising to his cheeks. He was used to getting any girl he wanted which never was a problem for him because every girl wanted him. Every girl except Serena that is. He was flat out frustrated with this girl. He didn't care about other girls, he wanted her. Only her but she didn't want him.
Darien let go of her wrist. Realizing this Serena began walking away quickly. She was almost out of the door before he realized.
"Hey Serena! Wait up!" he yelled as he ran to catch up with her.
Serena sighed as he walked beside her. "Do you ever give up?" she asked.
"Not when I really want something or someone." he replied. Serena rolled her eyes.
"Oh puh-lease."
Ignoring her last coment Darien asked "Why don't you like me?"
"What makes you think I don't like you?" Serena asked.
"Well lets see. I've asked you a dozen times to go to the dance with me today and you've refused every time, so I figure you must not like me for some reason. What is it?"
"Like I said before I don't have to tell you."
"Come on just tell me."
"No."
"Yes."
"NO!"
"Yes."
Serena's veins were boiling with anger. "You are just another heatbreaking playboy that will only end up hurting me like the rest! Now leave me alone!"
Darien continued to walk beside the blond. "Heartbreaking playboy? Hurt you like the rest?" Look Serena," Darien began as he stepped in front of the blond so that they were face to face. "I don't know who made you beleive that every good looking guy was like that but I am not like that. Give me a chance and I'll prove it to you." Darien said pleading on the last sentence.
Serena looked at him carefully. He obviously liked her and wanted to show her he was different. "I don't know.."
"Please?" Darien said giving her puppy dog eyes.
"Oh-Oh alright; but only one chance." Serena said looking at him. They continued walking in silence. Finally Serena asked the question she had been wondering. "How do you plan on showing me that you are different?"
"I was hoping you ask that." Darien said smiling. "I'll act as if you are my girlfriend and you act as if I am your boyfriend." Before Serena could argue with him he said" It is the only way to prove I'm not like every other guy you've dated." Serena grudging gave in.
"Alright, tomorrow you are offically my boyfriend." Serena said as they arrived at her house. Darien watched with a smile as she dissappeared into the house.
-the next day(Tuesday)-
Serena Tsukino hurried through the empty hallway of the school. The echoing of her heels were heard. There was a reason in for which she was hurring, she was late.
----Flashback-----
The petite blond grabbed her bag from the table as the doorbell rang. She walked slowly to the door 'I wonder who would come here on a school morning.' she thought. She opened the door and was surprised to see a man with a boquet of red roses in his hand. The man extended the boquet to her.
Serena took the boquet from him. 'I wonder who..Ugh never mind I know exactly who these are from.' she thought recalling the previous days events. She lowered her face into the roses to smell their sweet fragrance. 'I do have to admit he is kind of sweet to have sent me these.'
Serena went inside and closed the door after herself. She put the roses in a nearby vase. No sooner than she did that there came another knock at the door. Serena opened the door and her jaw dropped at the sight of three gorgeous men. 'They look familiar.' Serena thought. Quickly shutting her still open mouth she asked "Can I help you?"
"Are you Serena Tsukino?" the one with the white hair asked.
"Yes..." Serena said unsure of why he wanted to know.
He grabbed her hand and pulled the petite blond outside. The all surrounded her and began to sing.
"The Starlights." Serena said in disbeleif after they finished the song.
"So you've heard of us?" Taiki asked.
"Heard of you? You guys are famous. You are like the best group ever." Serena gushed.
"Thanks." Yaten said smiling.
"What are you guys doing here of all places?"
"Mr. Sheilds sent us here." Yaten answered.
Her excitement washed away instantly."Darien? It figures." Serena said." ' If he thinks he can by me off with the Starlights he is so wrong!' Serena fumed inside. The Starlights began a new song when Serena cut in. "Sorry guys I don't have time to listen to another song. I have to go to school."
"Sorry but Mr. Shields payed us to sing you five more songs. They surrounded her and began singing the rest of the songs.
--End of flashback--

Serena slowly turned the door knob to her first period teacher Mr. Handel. Mr. Handel was known to ...well..fly of the handel if someone was late to his class. Sereana slowly opened the door and walked in.
"Nice of you to join us Ms. Tsukino. What is your excuse for being late?" Mr. Handel barked.
Serena cringed as the others in the class watched her with sympathy. Serena racked her brain for an excuse. 'I can't tell him the truth. Like he would beleive that I was late because the Starlights refused to let me leave until they finished singing to me. As if! So what can I tell him?'
"Well?" Mr. Handel asked impatiently.
"Well you see.." Serena began stalling for more time. She had to come up with an excuse quick or she would end up with a week of detention or more. ' Ah-ha! I got it.' she thought. She walked over to Mr. Handel and whispered something into his ear. Mr. Handels eyes widened.
"O-Okay . T-take your seat." Mr. Handel stutered.
Serena scanned the room for an empty seat. 'No.' she mentally groaned as she realized the only seat was next to Darien. She quickly walked to her seat as Mr. Handel continued with his lecture that she had interupted.
-----After class-----

"Way to go Serena." a red exclaimed high fiving her. She was congradulated many times by her fellow classmates. Many of which that asked what excuse she had given Mr. Handel. She refused each time to tell them what it was. No one had *ever* gotten out of getting detention for being tardy. Not even the jocks or cheerleaders.
"So what did you tell him that got you out of detention and made his eyes widen like that?" Darien asked as he walked her to her next class. He smoothly placed an arm around her waist.
Serena gave him a smoldering look. "What do you think your doing?"she asked trying to pry his hand from her waist with her free hand.
"I'm walking my girlfriend,which is you," he said looking at her "to class."
"Fine." she muttered givingup her attempt to pry his hand from her waist.
'Dang he's strong .' she thought. "Do you really want to know why I was late today?" Serena asked once they were the door to her next class. "I was late because of your Starlights." she said before he could reply. "They refused to let me leave until they sang the six songs you payed them to sing."
"Oh. Sorry about that." Darien said sheepishly. "Did you get the roses?"
"Yes."
"And.."
"They were beautiful." Serena said ." But do you really think you can buy my love?!"
"Ofcourse not that's why I have something else for you after school." Darien said with a smile.
"What is it?" Serena asked suspiously.
"You'll have to wait to find that out this afternoon won't you? Meet me at the rose garden in the park this afternoon at 4." Darien said before walking off to his next class.
--on the way to the rose garden--

Thoughts clouded Serena's mind as she walked to the rose garden where she was to meet Darien. Her first thought was 'why did I ever agree into being his girlfriend.' All day other girls had stared at her with a look of hatred. Both the girls and guys were upset to learn that Serena and Darien were going out.
Serena reached the rose garden. She carefully made her way through it so as not to be scratched. She found Darien in a clearence sleeping on his back on a blaket. Serena smiled evily as a thought came to her. Serena tiptoed over to the sleeping Darien. She opened her shoulder bag and found her unfinished water bottle. She opened the top quietly. Holding it just above his head she began to let it drop slowly onto his face like raindrops. Still asleep Darien wiped his face as an atempt to remove the water.
Serena unscrewed the the whole bottle top and dumped right onto the sleeping Darien's face. Serena ran behind a pair of nearby bushes.
"What the hell?" a confused Darien asked looking up at the sky.Darien heard laughter coming from the rose bush on his right. "Serena?!" he roared.
Serena came out from behind the rose bush still giggling slightly. "You didn't like my prank?" she asked sweetly.
"I'll get you for this." Darien said getting up from the blanket.
"You got to catch me first." Serena yelled dashing away from him.
Darien chased after Serena , and was closing the distance between them rapidly. With in seconds Darien grabbed ahold of her and the two fell to the ground with Darien on top of Serena.
Serena gazed into the eyes of the gorgeous man on her. Slowly Serena and Darien began to inch forward. Their lips just centimeters away.
