Mia's Turn for a Date

""""WHAT!!""""

It wasn't a quite morning for Derren, that's for sure. He had just finished telling Miko, Mia, Flo, and Jessie (over the phone in her case) about the most recent revelation bestowed upon him by Dominia.

"I know, because of you, that gods exist but to think that an obstacle such as that would stand against us!" Florence leaned over the breakfast table gripping her head in an attempt to comprehend this information.

"Alright give me a second, I'll handle this!" Miko pulled a large knife out of somewhere Derren was too afraid to ask about, and stood up. She was clearly ready and willing to march over to May's house and ending her right there. Fortunately a gentle nudge from Derren was enough to get her attention, and the look in his eyes told her that this wasn't her time to strike. She settled back in to her role as a doting lover/servant thereafter.

"I don't even know what to say right now Derren!" Jessie was understandably shocked by all this too but had to subdue her reactions a bit so as not to disturb her parents.

"So you're telling me you fucked a Goddess!?" Mia finally blurted out like she'd explode if she held back any longer.

""That's what you're choosing to focus on!!"" Florence and Jessie blurted out in disbelief. Miko, however, was stifling a laugh at her friends ridiculous/pervy focus.

"Jessica! Keep it down! I told you a thousand times not to cause a ruckus when talking to your friends! Now hang up and get ready or you're gonna be late for school!" Jessie was being chewed out on the other end of the phone by her mother.

"Sorry mom! I'll be right down for breakfast!" She yelled to her clearly irate mother.

"Sorry guys I gotta go, see ya latter!" Without anyone having a chance to say goodbye she hung up, Derren mused that when Jessie's mom spoke Jessie damn well listened.

"Anyway, yeah I got a divine blowjob last night, and then another one from Dominia!"

"D'aw, when'd you get so smooth dear!" Miko leans in and gives Derren a quick smooch for the complement.

"But no seriously, it was pretty amazing Mia I don't even know how to describe it!"

"I wish you could! It'd give me something to work with when I give you up for the night."

"Right, thanks for letting Derren and I get some much needed alone time Mimi."

"No probs Koko! But I'm next I wanna go on a date tonight like we planed! We don't have to worry about what's her name right this second right?"

"Well I guess it wouldn't be fair to you guys to cancel the plans now and so long as May doesn't realize she has immunity to my power the cheer girls will still keep her distance for now. We should be fine to keep our plans for tonight."

"Yahoo!!!" Mia jumps from her chair and hugs Derren.

"Be ready for tonight my love!" Mia leans in and passionately kisses Derren.

"That's just an appetizer."

Derren went to pick Mia up at her place, which felt very weird for him. He had never had to visit the Noland estate before as Mia would always come over to his place. She would also spend a number of days with him before reluctantly returning home. However, she insisted today that Derren picked her up at her place, so being a good boyfriend Derren agreed. Derren drove up to the gates he was greeted by security which the Noland family hired full time to guard the entrance. After saying he was there for Mia the guard went back into his station and made a quick call, and soon after the gate opened.

He had heard many times that the Noland family and the Rathford family lived in luxurious estates, but what he saw as he drove up to the hidden away property was breathtaking:

Derren walked up to the door feeling very nervous despite the fact that he knew he could lay claim to the house with a few strokes of a pen. He motioned to knock, but the door was swung open from the other side. The man standing there was an older gentleman who, if Derren had to venture a guess, was in his 60s. He wore a black suit with a white under shirt. His tie was also black, so too was his pant and shoes. He wore white gloves on each hand. In fact the only part of him that wasn't some variation of black or white was his greyed hair that portrait his years along with the wrinkles he wore upon his face. Indeed, it was easy to tell that this man was the Noland family butler, and probably the head one at that if seniority meant anything.

"Are you the young miss' recent dalliance young man?" The butler asked as as he escorted Derren into the house.

"Um, I don't think dalliance is the right word, do you?" Derren questioned as he looked around a truly spectacular foyer:

"Perhaps, and this may very well be out of line, but I feel duty bound to tell you in advance that young miss Noland has a habit of... how do I put it, being less serious about a relationship than their partners think she is. Forgive me, but I want to avoid another incident with the police if I can help it."

"The police!?"

"Yes, some young gentleman, and not all of them have been as such, but some young gentleman didn't take kindly to the young miss', let's say, eccentricities. You see, then they lashed out and did something decidedly stupid, and they were caught trespassing. Security and the police had to get involved and it is very tiresome for an old man such as I."

"Well she may surprise you this time might just be different."

"May I speak honestly sir?"

"Go ahead."

"I sincerely hope you're right sir. You see for all her posturing, the young miss has been decidedly unhappy. As if there was a cloud hanging over her head at all times, she could never shake her worries."

"Oh is this about her parents and her abandonment worries? She already opened up about it."

"Wha? Terribly sorry to continue to overstep, but the young miss did? When? As I was going to say since she started visiting her latest boyfriends house I noticed a marked improvement in her demeanor, but for her to reveal what she locked into her own heart to you, sir you may be exactly who is needed for the young miss to find happiness!"

"To answer you first off she told me about it right away, and yes I intend to make her happy."

"Ah, music to my ears, love!" Both Derren and the butler look up the foyer stairs and see Mia leaning coyly against the railing between the two stair cases.

"How long have you been there?"

"Long enough, love" She shrugs at Derren's question.

"Oh, Wallace has the driver gotten the car ready?"

"He should be here at any moment young miss." Wallace does a quick bow and scurries off. COWARD! Derren internalizes.

Mia descends the steps as Derren takes the chance to take in her attire. She is wearing an elegant, black, strapless cocktail dress. It cuts just at the top of the generous bosom which gives just enough of a view to send anyone who looks wild. The dress hugs tightly to her form showing off every mouth watering curve on her super model worthy frame. It stops at her knee, and Derren wonders, with how tightly fit the dress is, can she even walk down the stairs in it. She capped off the outfit with a pair of black stilettos and a scarlet red clutch purse. No doubt these clothes were designer and therefore extremely expensive. It was enough to make Derren chuckled to himself that not that long ago Mia would've looked at him with disgust and ire for even trying to sneak a peak at her in her everyday school outfit, and now she was dressing this specifically for him. She wanted to dress up for him and impress him, quite the turnaround from a few months ago!

"Hey love!" She throws herself onto Derren and embraces him as their lips meet and the two share a tender and loving kiss.

"You look amazing, Mia."

"Don't I just though!" She gives a quick twirl for Derren's eyes benefit. "And you look passable I suppose."

"Pfft... Yeah well I wasn't aware I should be dressing for a soiree, excuse me." Derren retorts to her playful jab with a snarky comment of his own.

"Ha, always prepare for a soiree when it comes to an outing with me, love."

"I think next time I'll decide you rich brat." Derren concludes by giving Mia a quick slap on the ass. Not so much as to hurt her but in a way he knew would excite her. Despite how she usually acts Mia was clearly putting on airs befitting her status, and so Darren decided to play the role of someone who wouldn't be intimidated by someone of higher standing.

"EEP" Mia yelped in surprise. She then took hold of the front of Derren's shirt and pulled him closer.

"You brut, I hope there's more of that where that came from. Something for tonight perhaps?"

"Ehem, the car is ready young miss." The butler spoke up and this time it was Mia's turn to be caught off guard.

"AH! Wallace! I may not need to announce my presence when I enter a room, but you certainly do!"

"My apologies young miss, I felt as though I'd be interrupting something I shouldn't."

"Well no matter we'll be off. See to it that behavior doesn't become a pattern. Also, see to it my room is prepared by the time I return." Mia rushed off to the front door to meet the driver and depart, Derren followed shortly after.

"Sir, perhaps I was mistaken about you." Wallace said to Derren in passing. Derren simply smiled at the old steward and departed.

"Ha" Wallace chuckled to himself as he ascended the stairs. In all these years he'd seen the young miss chew young men up and spit them out. Never would he think he'd seen what he saw tonight, indeed that young man wasn't intimidated by the young miss or her status. After seeing the two of them tonight he had but one thought, perhaps he'd have to get used to calling that man young master.

The driver pulled up to on of those really fancy looking restaurants. It was the kind that Derren would have had to spend about what both his parents make in a week combined just to order one of their least expensive items. To be honest he didn't like having to have his girlfriend pay for him, but he couldn't afford this place in a million years (sans magic powers). Plus, Mia absolutely insisted she wanted to treat him to her favorite restaurant's food. The place in question was called "mer d'azur" so Derren could assume it was probably french cuisine. They were shown to a table immediately upon entering with nothing but the finest of service from then on. Of course with Mia's family's wealth and influence it is only natural the wait staff would bend over backwards to ensure she was happy and would continue to be a patron. Mia handled the ordering of the food as Derren didn't know what a single item on the menu said, and she picked magnificently! While he didn't know what the heck he was eating, and everything looked way to overpriced for the portions offered he couldn't deny it tasted spectacular.

"You look like you're enjoying yourself." Mia gave a coy smile.

"Yeah, I have to say this place is a little too pretentious for my taste, but the food here certainly is my taste. It's fantastic honestly."

"Well, I'm glad I don't know what I'd do if you didn't like it. Now I just need to check the food quality myself!" Mia deftly swooped her fork across Derren's plate and stole a bite of food.

"Oh delish indeed!"

"Wha-Hey! I think you owe me a bite of yours now!"

"Well I suppose that's fair then." Mia took a fork to her plate this time and held it across the table and Derren chomped down on it. Mia was blushing as she started to realize people staring at the young couple's table.

"Your meals delicious as well!"

"C-cool" Mia was looking down a bit in embarrassment. Derren looked around and noticed that she was feeling a bit embarrassed by prying eyes.

"Mia look up."

"Why... mmf" Derren leaned across the table and kissed Mia to show he wasn't embarrassed at all to be looked at, and Mia got the hint.

"Pfft, hahaah!" Mia and Derren started cracking up after the kiss realizing how ridiculous the both of them found this situation.

"Really what was that love! Ah hahaha!"

"I could ask you that, I've never seen you so red you looked like your face matched your purse."

"Oh shut up you! I don't usually mind it, but it's different when I'm with you I feel like it's just the two of us in our own little world. Being reminded that we aren't is a little embarrassing for me. I know better than anyone it's silly."

"Well I don't mind announcing to the whole world that I love you Mia." Derren leans in again and this time Mia meets him half way across the table. Instead of looking happy Mia instead starts to look downcast.

"What, what's wrong."

"Can I ask you something?"

"Sure, what's up."

"Why me?"

"Huh?"

"Why did you choose me?"

"Could I have a little more info please Mia?"

"Ugh, do I need to spoon feed it to you, why am I your girlfriend!? You intend to ruin the rest of the squad akin to what you did to Chelsea right?"

"Yeah, the worst of the worst are left I intend to take them down a peg or three."

"But I'm the worst of the worst! You know, you know that aside from Vivian I am the one that screwed you over the most. I am the one that made your life hell I sent the dogs after you and reveled in the carnage! If you want to get **** that's fine, but why me? Why am I blessed with heaven when the rest will meet with hell? I get Flo and Jessie to an extent, but why me?" Derren looked around after to see if anyone overheard but Mia whispered most of her rant and the din of the crowd seemed to drown them out. Plus they were tucked away in a private corner of the restaurant. He could see the torment in her eyes as they started to tear up, and he knew it was the time to answer her honestly.

"Convenience. You were convenient to me Mia"

"Huh?"

"I knew I needed a powerful ally and who better than my enemy's cunty little rich bitch friend. I could use you to destroy everyone I hated as my submissive sword and shield."

"So that's how you really feel then, I'm just a..." Derren places his finger over his mouth to silence Mia.

"Please let me finish. I hated you and I was going to use you and throw you away like the rest of them. However, the Mia I hated would never dress up and go to a fancy diner with me, would never look at me with adoring eyes, would never start crying in the middle of a restaurant because she felt so guilty about what she'd done, and most importantly the you that I hated could never have gotten me to fall in love."

"So you're serious, you love me?"

"Do I actually have to announce it to the whole world?"

"No, you've done more that enough to convince me."

"Mia, whatever my intentions may have been with you I can't do anything but love you now, and that is entirely your own doing."

"You really do mean it don't you?"

"For the 100th time yes, I love you Mia." Mia began crying again and even harder.

"I'm, I'm so sorry Derren, for everything I did to you I'm so so sorry. I promise to spend the rest of my life showing you just how much I want to make up for it and how much I love you." Derren stands up and pulls Mia into a hug until she calms down, which does bring in a few curious eyes.

"So that's really been eating away at you, huh?"

"Since you said you'd punish the rest of the squad, I couldn't help be consumed with doubt, fear, and guilt. But don't worry I'm over that now."

"Good."

"Now if you'll excuse me I think I need to fix my makeup." Mia excused herself from the table and as Derren watched her walk away he noticed the maitre d escort someone to their seat that made his blood run cold and made blood boil at the same time.

Being brought to the same section of the restaurant as Derren and Mia had (most likely reserved for the towns elite), was none other than Vivian Rathford.

Author's Note: I usually don't want to use pictures as I like to allow you all to make use your imagination based off my descriptions. That said I knew how long this date chapter was looking to run already, and I'll be damed if I was going to waste two paragraphs describing a mansion and its foyer. If you don't like this mansion make up your own in your head it doesn't bother me ;).
