"Did I really just do that?" She squeaked into her pillow, whining and squirming. Serenity was utterly embarrassed. She might be a Senshi, but she was still a normal teenage girl who was easily embarrassed since this was her first real relationship. She may have had flirting relationships off and on, but nothing like this. Serenity was serious about Lila, She really liked the other girl, enjoyed talking to her, enjoyed being around her. It was natural that she'd want to move in with her. It'd give the time to get to know each other, and help each other out. They wouldn't have to put out ads for room mates and get potentially creepy people answering it. With a sigh, she hugged her pillow to her chest and rolled over on her back, staring once more at her ceiling. Her parents were thrilled she'd be moving out. She had savings, she would get money from them if she absolutely needed it, so they weren't worried about her.

That didn't mean Serenity wasn't worried about herself. Working was hard. Being a normal member of society was hard, especially when she had expensive fashion taste and had to help protect the world from evil. Top that all off with balancing a room mate who was your girlfriend and potential best friend and she had herself an overly full plate. Well, it wasn't like she had a job yet, but she was going to get one! She had a lead, one of her friends' mothers worked for this amazing little boutique. It'd be hard to not spend her whole paycheck there, but she figured once she had bills, actual bills that mommy and daddy wouldn't pay for, she would end up remembering about it.

Phone bill, lights, water, gas.. "Why did I say that? I'm not ready to leave!" She threw her hands and feet into the air in a mini tantrum before whining and rolling back and forth on her bed, whining loudly. "The one time I try to impress, the one time I actually have to follow through and move out." Those words were horrible!

With all of her rolling, Serenity didn't notice how close to the edge of the bed she was and ended up rolling off with a loud clatter. "O-ow.." Her head had hit the night stand and she grumbled, flopping down on the carpeted floor. "How am I going to do this...?" Finding an apartment would be fairly easy. Lila would help her. Something with two bedrooms, two bathrooms, a living room and a kitchen at a fairly cheap price, but nothing run down looking. Serenity wouldn't settle for anything with mold, water stains, stains on the carpet, or anything like that. She wanted a new apartment for cheap.

Good luck there.

She pulled her laptop from the spot under the bed and sat up. Now she'd look for apartments. Serenity would call Lila if she found anything good.
