bloodsong1Only things that belongs to me are Chigiri, the Singing Fish (Thanks Aphie!) and the unnamed DJ, who will remain nameless. Everything else is copyrighted and used only in fangirl appreciation to hone writing skills. We'll see how it goes over. >>
"Ok, folks, time for our intrepid singers to take a break. The dance floor is now open and the lovely Chigiri will be performing for us. Come on down and dance!" The DJ announced as bussers quickly cleared the empty tables and chairs from the dance floor. Darien suddenly had a clear view of Serena. His mind shut down as he stared at her. So...beautiful! Had she understood? The way she sang "Eternity"...
"OW!" Darien glared at Andrew and rubbed the sore spot on his arm. Andrew grinned and made pinching motions with his finger and thumb.
"Get over there and ask her to dance?"
"Who?'
"Who?!?" Andrew smacked Darien firmly upside the head.
"OUCH! ANDREW!"
"DARIEN! You know who I'm talking about. You completely gave yourself away, man. Everyone knows, INCLUDING Serena and if you don't go over there and ask her to dance, you will be ruining your best and possibly only chance with her! Move it!" Andrew rose and grabbed at Darien's shoulders. Darien easily dodged and ended up behind Andrew. He took great sastisfaction in cuffing his best friend severely.
"OW! Dude!" Darien shook his head and walked away, moving around the floor which already had a few couples on grooving to techno music. He blinked in surprise when Serena stumbled directly into his arms.
"Whoa, Meatball Head! You ok?"
"I'm fine." She glared over her shoulder. Darien looked and saw three girls sending all kinds of positive signals. He sighed and looked down at Serena. She was staring at his tie and muttering something about "dire revenge". He smiled and slowly stroked his hand up her arm, over her shoulder and to her chin. Tipping her face up, his smile softened at the amazed blue eyes staring into his.
"Hello, Serena. Would you like to dance?"
"I...I..." He waited patiently, content to simply hold her. Memorize her face. Enjoy the confusion and traces of excitement lingering in her eyes. "Yes."
"Yes?" What were they talking about?
"Yes, I'd like to dance." Serena gave him an odd look. He quickly led her the few steps to the floor, not about to let her change her mind. The music changed to a cheerful number, not exactly slow dance music, but easy to move to. As Chigiri's voice washed over them, Darien felt the world contract. All he could see was Serena. His Meatball Head, his angel voiced beauty. His princess. He smiled down at her.
"It's true, you know." He whispered, pulling her closer.
"What is?" She whispered back, gazing up at him.
"The song. Mystic Eyes. You have them. Beautiful, mystic eyes I...oh Serena!" He wrapped both arms around her and clutched her close. She trembled in his arms and he prayed it was from the same overwhemling emotions rushing through him. "I love you, Serena. I love you." She gasped, then curled her fists into his jacket.
"I love you, Darien." He pulled away slightly and stared at her warm, happy face and joyful blue eyes. His heart pounded, his head went blank.
"So kiss me." Darien couldn't resist. It had been too long. His head dipped and he claimed Serena's mouth with his.
--------------------------
Serena glanced over at Darien as the tables cleared. He was watching her with that same odd look she had seen in the arcade. Andrew pinched him and the two got into a very loud argument. She blushed when she heard her name. Suddenly, hands grabbed her arms and pulled her to her feet.
"Hey, what? Lita! Ami! RAYE!"
"Go get him already!" The three chorused and shoved her towards the dance floor. Her toe caught in her skirt and she stumbled. Strong arms caught her and she was staring at a dark blue tie.
"Who, Meatball Head! You ok?" Darien asked, holding her arms gently. Serena glared over her shoulder.
"I'm fine. Oooo. Just wait until I get ahold of them!" She faced foward, staring at the weave of the tie. "I'll have my revenge. It will be a dire revenge. Just as soon as...I..." Her angry mutters died at the stroke of a hand. Darien's hand. Sliding up her arm. She tried not to shiver as he tipped her face up.
"Hello Serena. Would you like to dance?"
"I...I..." Dance, with Darien? Actually be held in his arms? I haven't danced with anyone since...but, this is DARIEN. Then again, that song...
"Yes."
"Yes?" Darien looked at her, confused. His eyes were glowing, yet distracted.
"Yes, I'd like to dance." Darien's face lit up and he hustled her onto the floor. She gasped as he swung her expertly into his arms. Awareness washed over her and she gazed up at him. What was he DOING to her? He smiled and her breath caught.
"It's true, you know." He whispered, his arms tightening around her. She gasped at the sensations.
"What is?" She whispered back.
"The song. Mystic Eyes. You have them. Beautiful, mystic eyes that I...oh Serena!" He wrapped both arms around her and hugged her tightly. She shivered, unable to control her emotions. Was this...could this really be?
"I love you, Serena. I love you." She gasped, thrills running through her. He did! He did and that was all that mattered. She gripped his jacket.
"I love you, Darien." She whispered. He pulled away, looking at her in amazement and joy. She let her eyes speak for her, not knowing what else to do.
"So kiss me." Darien's head dipped and he kissed her soundly.
-----------------------------------
I smile as I take the stage. Darien and Serena were literally shoved together before making it to the dance floor. With such friends, they will do well. I lift the microphone as my favorite song begins playing. Time to pour MY heart out.
"Kiss me out of the bearded barley
Nightly, beside the green, green grass
Swing, swing,(swing, swing) swing the spinning step
You wear those shoes and I will wear that dress
Oh, kiss me beneath the milky twilight
Lead me out on the moonlit floor
Lift up your open hand
Strike up the band and make the fireflies dance
Silver moon's sparkling
So kiss me"
Oh good! They're talking. I can see their lips move, whispering. Yes, yes! Tell each other how you feel! Let the othe hear those beautiful words, then do as I say!
"Kiss me down by the broken tree house
Swing me upon it's hanging tire
Bring, bring,(bring, bring) bring your flowered hat
We'll take the trail marked on your father's map
Oh, kiss me beneath the milky twilight
Lead me out on the moonlit floor
Lift your open hand
Strike up the band and make the fireflies dance
Silver moon's sparkling
So kiss me."
Finally! Darien heard me. They're kissing. Ah, first kiss. Such a wonderful thing.
"Kiss me beneath the milky twilight
Lead me out on the moonlit floor
Lift your open hand
Strike up the band and make the fireflies dance
Silver moon's sparkling
So kiss me.
So kiss me.
So kiss me."
They're still kisisng. How lovely. Looks like it's time for me to move on. Wait, something's...wrong. I feel weak, light headed. What...what's wrong with me? The microphone falls from my hand with a twang of feedback as my knees buckle.
*eville laughter*
