The Unexpected Side Effects of Over use of Bug Spray
By Dragonfly
Rating= (not sure yet)
I DON"T OWN SAILOR MOON!!!!!Or any other strange characters
I use in this fic (including scooby-doo!)

AN= In case you're wondering, I got the idea for this fic
From my experiences from camp. *looks around to see
If any spiders followed d-fly home*
Good. Coast is clear.
But, just in case *pulls out mallet to whack them with*

Right, Miri? *mad laughter as d-chan whacks away happily
At nothing at all*

Okay then! *looks at readers the same way they are looking
At d-chan* (in other words, I'm staring at you like you're 
Crazy!)

Enjoy!

Oh, and one more note. I may give the names of the
Girl campers, but I'm not going to rack my brains for
More than 5 guy campers. Okay? Okay. 
C U @ the bottom!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Darien's POV
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
	Okay, I admit it. I loved her from the start.
Even though the first thing I did to her was put
her down. 
	It was completely innocent! I swear!
	I was standing around with my friends, who I've
known since practically forever. Only this year at 
this camp, we're counselors. No campers here yet,
just us for a week, to 'get used to our surroundings'.
	Okay, where was I? Right. I was standing around
with Chad, Greg, Andrew, and Ken when she first walks
by. And of course, I stare. Who wouldn't? She was 
absolutely gorgeous. She had the longest legs that 
a girl could possibly have, and her golden hair trailed to
about her knee. I could have just stared for hours!
	She just breezed right past me, and didn't 
say a word. I don't think she really even noticed 
me! Until Andrew followed my gaze. I swear, I've never
been more embarassed.
	He whistled at her, then practically shouted
out, "Hey, Blond Chick, SOMEONE over here has a LITTLE
bit of a CRUSH on you!"
	Of course, by now I was beet red. I wasn't 
thinking, everyone was staring. So when she, um, 
Serena turned around, I froze. Then did the worst
thing possible! I go and insult the angel.
	"Ha! On THAT Meatball head? You gotta be 
kidding me, Andrew." I say, then turn back to
the other guys. 	
	I can feel the daggers she was glaring into
my back as I hear her turn around and storm off, 
probably completely mortified. Not only her eyes,
but everyone else's! 
I sighed, and glanced over my shoulder as 
I watched her walk away. 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Serena's POV
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
	The nerve of that jerk, calling me Meatball
Head! *grrrrr*
	I don't know where I'm going, just somewhere
away from that! I don't think I've been more 
embarassed! Well, there WAS that time where I 
accidentaly passed gas... DON'T GO THERE, SERE!
I thought.
	Then I realized something. We have our cabin
assignments, which just says where we are gonna 
stay. Those assignments are back where *he* was,
and I had to go all the way back. 
	'Maybe he won't notice me!' I convince myself.
	Famous last words.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
My POV! *whack* MWAHAHAHAHAHAHA
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
	Darien was standing with his back to the 
assignments, so he never saw Serena coming.
	Andrew and Ken, however, were standing
directly to the list. 
	Serena creeped slowly up to the list, and
shot a glance over at Darien. Only to see 
Andrew and Ken's faces light up in a michevious
light. 
	Even though she knew it wouldn't do any 
good, she shook her head directly at them and
made a shushing gesture. 
	"Hey, Darien, you're girlfriend's over
there! Why donc'ha go talk to her?" Ken joked,
and Serena's eyes widened.
	'Play it cool, don't look at him!' she
thought, and turned back to the list.
	"Shut up, Ken. Go bug Lita or something.
Or maybe you can tell her about how 
tough chicks turn you on!" Darien snapped back,
enjoying the embarased look on his face.
	Serena looked at where her name was, and
saw that she was staying in Star Meadow.
	'That sounds nice!' she thought, and heard
someone come up behind her.
	"Serena Tsukino?" someone said.
	"Yes?" Serena said, turning around.
	"Hi! I'm Lita Kino, and I believe these
are yours!" Lita said, handing Serena two letters.
	"Thanks! Where are you staying?" Serena
asked, hoping Lita would say Star Meadow.
"River Bluff, you?"
"Oh. Star Meadow."
"LUCKY!! That's the best place to stay.
A few bugs, but that's in all the cabins. The
stars get so bright there, it's unbelievable!"
	Serena smiled, then said, "Okay, I'm 
going to unpack my stuff. Thanks again!"
	"Welcome! Laters!" Lita said, and Serena
walked off. Lita heard snickering coming from 
behind her, and she turned to see a VERY red 
Darien over to her.
	"Hey Darien! What's going on?" She asked,
but got no answer. He quickly checked his cabin
assignment, then left silently.
	Lita couldn't contain herself. She had to
see where he was staying, and what made him so
mad.
	"Darien Shields, Star Meadow" 
(an- that was SOOOO predictable)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Serena's POV
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
	'Ugh, these bags are heavy! I could have
sworn that I didn't pack that much!' I think as
I struggle to lift my bags out from my car.
	It must have taken me five minutes to get
my bags into the cabin.
	"Well, first thing's first." I say out loud,
then undo my hair, and end up dropping a bobby
pen.  
	And the very moment I bend over, someone
knocks on the door. Great. Flash city!
	"Ugh. Who is it?" I say, as I pull myself
up and turn around, my hair starting to
tickle my ankles.
	And in the doorway, was the last person
I expected to see. If a 2 headed goat with wings
were there, I'd be less surprised.
	That jerk from earlier. What was he doing 
here, in my cabin?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~	
Darien's POV
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
	'Ugh. I really hate this climb. Why the heck
does Star Meadow have to be at the exact end of
all possible roads for this camp? Oh well, I wonder
who my co-counselor is. 
	I'll find out soon enough' I think as I top
the hill that leads to Star Meadow.
	Oh yeah, I found out all right!
	As I come into the clearing, I see this neat
little car parked there. It's a pale purple beetle,
with a really nice interior.
	'Definatly girlish' I think.
	First thing I did, though, was drop my bag 
into my cabin. Then look around. Typical bug
infested cabin. The daddy-longlegs are already
climbing on my bag.
	'Oh well, they'll regret it.' I think again
as I leave the cabin to see who I'll be spending
the next few weeks with.
	The door to the next cabin was wide open,
so of course I'm going to look in, being the curious
little guy I am.
	Legs.
	That's all I see.
	Legs and blonde hair.
	Almost robotically, I knock on the door
frame. She's surprised, of course, but that's nothing
compared to the look on her face when she 
realizes who's there.
	"What are YOU doing here?" She asks, her
voice like music to my ears, harsh as her words
were.
	"I'm supposed to be here, silly,
and I'm obviously your co-counselor. Need help
unpacking?" I ask.
	"Not any help from you, thank you!" She 
muttered, and continued to unpack her bag.
	I just stood there, watching her empty
her bag. After a minute she looked up again
and said, "What's the matter, do you need an 
invitation to go back to your own cabin?"
	"Nah, I just don't believe you when 
you say you didn't need help. By the way,
my name's Darien." I say, and offer my hand 
out to her. "I'm really sorry about earlier."
	She looks at it, then at me with a look
of 'What kind of a jerk is this?' on her face.
	She sighed, took my hand, gave it a 
firm shake and said, "Mine's Serena. Look, 
if you really want to help, can you put my 
bag on that shelf over there?"
	"Okay." I say, grab her bag, and sling
it over on to a high shelf above her bed.
	"Anything else?" I ask.
	"Nah, thanks!" Serena says, and flops on her
bed. 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Serena's POV
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
	I couldn't help but stare a little 
wide-eyed when he tossed my bag up there.
Talk about some fine tuned muscles! 
	"Anything else?" He asks.
	"Nah, thanks!" I say, and flop on
my bed. I reach over for my current
romance novel that I'm reading, and 
flip to where I left off. It's getting
really good! Now if John will confess
to Hanna what he really feels...
	Wait. What is Darien still
doing in here?
	"Do you need an invitation to 
go back to your cabin now, or what?"
I ask, maybe a little bit too impatiently.
	"Um, no! Sorry. But first 
tell me what you're reading. Then 
I'll go.
	Sigh.
	"I'm reading 'The Light of the
Roses'. It's pretty good! John has loved
Hanna for practically forever, but 
she doesn't know it. She thinks that
she hates John, but sooner or later
they'll come to terms. Oooh, it's 
getting good now."
	Darien had a look on his face
kinda like 'Riiiiiiight'. "Well, then,
I'll let you get back to your, uh, 
Romance novel." He said.
	"Okay. When's dinner?" I ask.
	Darien checks his watch as he
starts to leave the cabin.
	"In about 30 minutes. I'll 
walk you down, if you want me to."
	Sounds pretty reasonable to me,
not knowing my way around this camp 
and all. "Okay. Thanks!" I say, then
go back to my book.
	Sigh.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
(authors note) Sigh indeed! To go on,
or finish this chapter right here.



GO ON!!!!!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
D-chan's POV
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
	Darien took a deep breath before
knocking on Serena's cabin door.
	'It's only to dinner, nothing
official!' he thought, nevertheless 
starting to get a little nervous.
	"Hang on!" Serena shouted 
from inside. "I got to find my letters!"
	"Don't take too long, dinner's
in about 10 minutes!" Darien called
back.
	"Okay, okay, I'm coming!" She
called back, then stepped out of the
cabin. And fortunatly for Darien's 
pride, right past him, so she couldn't
see the dropped jaw and the wide eyes.
	Serena's hair was pulled back 
in a loose ponytail, which, of course,
hung down past her knees. She had 
changed shirts to a light blue spagetti
strap shirt with bead fringe on the 
bottom, with a pair of short shorts.
	He barely managed to regain
control of his racing mind before
Serena turned around and asked, 
"Well, are you coming or not!"
	"Uh, yeah! Sorry. I didn't
get much sleep last night."
	Serena smiled sweetly,
and said, "Awww, poor baby! Come
on, I'm starved!"
	And so they made their first
entrance, um, "together".
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Darien's POV
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
	Oooh, Andrew is going to 
SO get me for this. But, I know he
has that crush on Mina, so I think
he shouldn't be a problem.
	"Hey, Serena, let's sit over
here. I can introduce you around to 
my friends."
	"Okay, sure! I already met
this one chick named Lita, she was
kinda cool."
	I nod, and say, "But she's 
real tough though. Ken has this
thing for her something awful."
	Everyone had already taken
their places at our now official
table, and all their eyes turned
to us.
	Silence.
	I could feel my cheeks turning
red. "Hey guys! What's up!" I say,
and notice Andrew, Ken, Chad, Lita,
and Greg trying to hold back a
laugh. I give them a look, then
say, "This is Serena, and Serena,
that's Andrew, Mina, Chad, Raye,
Ken, Lita, Amy and Greg." I could
tell that she would fit right in.
Lucky for me.
	"Hi peoples!" Serena said,
and squeezed between Lita and Amy.
	"Hey Serena! Like Star Meadow?"
Lita asked. I take my seat on the 
end, nearest to the wall.
	"Yeah! It's nice! This camp
is a lot better than the one I had
to counselor at last year."
	"Is this your first time here?"
Andrew asked.
	"Yeah, but it's cool! So far,
the people here are SO nice! When do
we get our supper! I'm starved."
	"They should bring it out any
minute now!" I say, eyeing the kitchen.
	"Well, while I'm waiting, I'm 
going to read my letters." Serena said,
and pulled 2 letters out of her pocket.
	"Hey, who were those from?" Lita
asked.
	"Well, this one is from my parent's,"
Serena said, holding up one, "and this 
other one is from my boyfriend." And she
held up the other one with a innocent 
smile on her face.
	Boyfriend?!?!?!?! I swallow hard.
	"Oooh, how sweet! What's he like?"
Mina asked, being her usual romantic self.
	"He's tall, really cute, and so
romantic! He once took me out in a rowboat
at midnight. There was a full moon, and
the city lights were beautiful! His name
is Eric." Serena said, and sighed, remembering
that night.
	She has a boyfriend? Well, a woman
as beautiful as her, what else would you
expect. She really loves him, too. 
	Well, that certainly put a damper
on my conversation this evening. I hardly
said anything, save when I absolutely had
to.
	I watched through eating as Serena
skimmed through her parent's letter, which
was kind of long, then open the one from
Eric.
	"Hey guys, you won't guess what 
happened to Brad." Rei suddenly said.
"I'm co-counseling with him this year,
and while he's unloading his stuff 
in his cabin, this squirrel runs out
from under his bed, between his legs,
and into his car! He was so scared he
fell over!" She said, before cracking
up, along with the rest of us. I, of 
course, am laughing my head off, as
I imagine Brad falling flat on his butt
over a little squirrel!
	I glance over at Serena, who is
not laughing. She wasn't even listening!
She was just staring at her letter, her
eyes getting bigger and bigger really 
fast. I thought I saw her lower lip start
to tremble, but I never got to know for
sure.
	"Hey, Serena, are you okay?" Mina
asked. There was no answer. Only a soft
"no" before Serena stood up and ran out 
of the building. 
	"Serena!" Amy called, and the whole
table stood up to go after her.
	"Guys, wait. I'll go see what's 
wrong. Just stay here." I say, and run
after her.
	'Man, I'm sure glad that they listened'
I think, after I exit. The first place
I look is up at Star Meadow, and there 
she was, sitting outside on the pic-nic
table, sobbing in her arms. Her letter
was still in her hands, only crumpled.
	"Serena, are you okay?" I ask, 
softly. 
	"No, leave me alone!" She mutters,
then runs to her cabin.
	Now, who in their right mind would
leave her alone right now. Not me. I 
go into her cabin, and find her sitting 
on her bed. She doesn't even hear me
come in, and she doesn't even say anything
when I sit next to her. 
	Nothing but uncontrollable sobs.
	"Serena, please tell me what's wrong.
I can do nothing but help you, you can
tell me!" I whisper, and put my arm around
her.
	She moves slightly away, then practically
throws herself on my, making me hold her 
tighter.
	"Eric, he..." she stuttered.
	"SHhhhhhh, it's okay, Serena. I'm 
here, don't worry. Everything'll be fine."
I say.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Serena's POV
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
	"Eric, he..." I start to say, but
can't bring myself to say anything else.
	I can't remember doing anything wrong
to make him want to break up with me, just
out of the blue, BAM! He tells me that he
doesn't love me, that we're through, and
that he'll forget me! 
	That's nice for him, but what about
me? All the time we spent together, that 
means NOTHING to him now? Oh, goodness, 
I can't take this! God knows how much I'll
still love him.
	"Shhhhhh, it's okay, Serena. I'm here,
don't worry. Everything'll be fine." Darien
says. 
	Darien, he doesn't need to be doing
this! "Why, are you" I start to ask, and
he says back, "Cause you shouldn't be made
to be alone right now, Sere, believe me." He
says softly.
	He's right. But I am alone! "Eric,
said that he doesn't know what he ever saw
in me, and that he practically hates me! I
don't know what I did, but it must have
been awful, but I can't remember..." I sob
out, and hold a little tighter to Darien.
	"Oh, Serena, you didn't do anything
wrong. He's just a jerk, that's all! How
anyone more than that could hurt such a 
beautiful angel is beyond me."
	I hardly even hear what Darien just
said. Kinda makes me feel guilty, being
to wrapped up in my sorrow to actually 
listen. But I did hear 'beautiful angel'.
	Whoa boy! Serena, slow down! Your
Boyfriend of 3 years writes to breakup 
with you, and the first thing you do, 
after running away and crying, is start
to fall for a guy you met THIS MORNING!
	But, then again, what did he just
call you? 'Beautiful angel'!!
	Is it me, or do I have a feeling
Fate is looking in on us. I never felt 
like this when Eric held me, never this
'connected'. Maybe, this was for,
	I CAN'T TAKE THIS!!!
	For some strange reason, I look 
up, eyes still spilling tears. Darien
smiles slightly, and raises a hand to
wipe away my remaining tears. 
	I don't think there can be any
bluer eyes, anywhere in the world. Like
an ocean of secrets, warmth, and love.
Eyes that I could lose myself in.
	Eyes that were closing and 
slowly coming closer to mine. 
	Is he going to....
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
D-chan's POV
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
	And kiss her he did. Serena's eyes
went wide at first, then closed in 
realization that she did love someone,
only she had been loving the wrong one.
	Lucky for her that her only love
was right in front of her, at the right
time. 
	When Darien pulled back, Serena's
tears had stopped. She looked at the
letter that was in her hand, smiled,
and crumpled it up. There was a trash
can by the door, and soon the letter
was sailing through the air, landing 
neatly into it.
	"Two points!" Serena said, then
pulled Darien into another kiss.
