The girls were at the store -DEB- looking at some evening gowns, which they all needed. So far, Mina had bought some jewelry, Raye had bought a few candles and bath accessories, Ami had bought a few books on physics and such, Lita had bought some stuff for her hair, and Serena had bought a couple of teddy bears, some chocolate and a few candles like Raye.
"How about this one guys?" Ami held up a casual light blue dress that went down to her knees.

"Killer, go try it on," said Lita.

"OK." Mina had already bought a yellow dress with a floral print on it, and Raye was about to buy a deep red gown that had a tight upper body part, and the skirt flared out (an: not like those little dresses that 4 and 5 yr old girls wear, but an elegant type thingy) and went down to he ankles.

"I think I'll buy this one," said Lita. She held up a plain, yet elegant, silk jungle green dress that went down to her ankles.

"What about you Sere?" Lita asked.

"I dunno yet," she replied.

"Sheesh meatball head hurry it up!" Raye snapped. Serena simply said "humph," and went into the dressing room. While she was in there, Mina whispered everyone over, and started telling them what her 'plan' was.
"OK guys, listen up, and don't interrupt. Andrew and his friends, Darien, Chad, Ken, and Greg are coming to the mall at 1:00 o'clock for lunch." Murmurs of astonishment could be heard from their little group, now they knew why Mina decided for lunch to be at 1:00.

"Anyway, we'll have to find a table next to them so they can hear us. And WITHOUT Serena OR Darien noticing! We'll somehow have to get her to admit that she likes Darien, got it?" They all agreed.

"Andrew and the guys know about this, except for Darien of course." Mina added. Serena came out just then…
When she came out, she wore a midnight blue silk dress that went down half way below her knees, and it had silver roses all over it, with a thin silver lining around it too. It simply flowed over her body; it was perfect. The girls had their mouths open.
Serena looked down and dug her toe into the carpet.

"What do you think?" she asked nervously.

"It's beautiful," said Raye.

"Yea, perfect," said Mina smiling. They all agreed that Serena should buy that one. It was 12:45 by the time they were done.

Andrew called Darien… "Hey Dare what's up?"

"Um the ceiling?" he replied.

"Ha ha, anyway I called to tell you that we're all headed over the mall."

"Yea so get your nose outa that book and get your but over there!" Ken yelled intro the phone, good-naturedly of course.

"Yea, yea I'm coming," Darien, said.
Seven minutes later, the 5 guys met up at the mall entrance.

"Ok," said Andrew as they walked towards the food court, "I'll go get a table, and you people get whatever you want to eat. Darien, get me whatever you get but with a coke."

"Yes sir" Darien said sarcastically. The others chuckled and stifled a few laughs at the look on Andrew's face (totally peeved).

The girls were all headed towards the food court and as usual, Ami would get the table. "Mina just get what I usually get."

"Sure thing," she replied, "A tuna sandwich and a coke, got it." They all giggled.

~*At the food court*~
Ami gave a thumbs up sign to Andrew as the both settled into tables that were next to each other. Then Andrew left to stall Darien.
All the girls took their seats a few minutes later, making sure Serena's back was facing the other table.
Then the guys came and took their seats, Andrew blocked Darien's view as the headed over. He made sure that Darien was seated so that now, Serena and him were back to back, without knowing it. Mina sat across from Serena, and Andrew sat across from Darien. They both winked at each other quickly, and started to carry out their plan.

The guys started small talk about work, school, and of course girls.

"So what do you wanna talk about?" Raye asked the girls.

"I say we play a little game of truth or dare," Mina said. She winked quickly at Raye, who did the same to Ami, who did the same to Lita who winked back. All of this went un-noticed to Serena since she was engrossed in her food.

"I'll go first," Mina volunteered. They all nodded in agreement.

"I pick Serena," she said with an evil grin. This perked up the interest of the guys, and they all quieted down. By now Darien realized who was behind him, and he too, interested in their conversation quieted down and they all listened intently.
"Oh lord," said Serena "ok go ahead."

"Truth or Dare?" asked Mina.

"Truth, your dare's scare me."

"Ok, it's your own fault she said." Serena waited patiently as the four girls discussed what the question should be. They all started giggling as they broke apart.

"Ok," said Mina, still giggling a bit, "Truth, do you like Darien?" Serena gasped.

"And we don't just mean like, do you like him enough that you could love him?" Raye added, the evil grin glowing on her face.
The guys waited patiently, and tried not to laugh. Darien just sat there, interest written all over his features as he raised an eyebrow. The guys just shrugged and sat there.
"Come on Meatball head, we all know that you like him, so admit it!" Raye said impatiently. Serena immediately started stuttering and saying that she didn't have any idea what they were talking about.

"Alright Serena," Lita said, "here are the facts: 1. Darien is a total hottie, and we all know it.
2. He's definitely charming we all know it. 3. He can be nice, seeing as how he act around Andrew and his friends. 4. He's sweet and…."

"Looks like YOU'RE the one that likes him!" Serena interrupted.

"Now now meatball head don't change the subject." Raye said pointedly.

"I am not!" Serena screeched.

"Come on Serena it's a simple truth question," Ami said before the two started arguing.

"He IS cute." Mina mentioned.

"And he can be total gentleman," Raye added.

"He's definitely smart," Ami said. The girls continued naming all the good points to Darien. As for Darien…

He sat quietly, trying to hide the blush slowly creeping up on him, as he concentrated on his food. Ignoring the winks and nudges he got from his friend.
Sere, who was tired of all this, stood up and said "Fine! I admit it! Darien is a total hottie; to me he's the most handsome man on this planet! And as for LIKING him? Well you're way of! He's totally utterly annoying, charming, mean, and smart, funny, dreamy, cute, and completely perfect in every way!" Everyone had his or her mouth open. Serena calmed down as what she had just said started sinking in. Darien, at this point was having emotions flying everywhere. Shock, flattery, love, astonishment, excitement etc… He stood up and picked up his tray. Then turned around and said "Jee meatball head, I didn't know you felt that way about me," he gave her a quick peck on the cheek, "thanks." And then went on his way towards the trashcan.
Oh gods, what'd I do? Thought Serena, as she stood there, totally and completely surprised, happy, excited, scared with a number of different emotions flying through her features.

The End.
So what'd ya think? Should I finish it? Was it good? Bad? Terrible? Terrific? Well send some feedback, flames or whatever!
