Don't let me be the last to Know!

Part 2!

The sound of the heart monitor, was driving Darien nuts! Why did she do to deserve this? She was the princess who is suppose to rule this world which she had saved so many times. She had gone though monsters, evil spirts, even lived through millenniums to now maybe possibly die by being hit by a car for saving a young child. But that was Serena for ya, always thinking of others before herself. As he held the sides of the seat he was sitting on in the ambulance as he watched helpless at his lover laying still motionless. It had been 20 minutes since the accident, 20 minutes since his life had been turned upside down.

He watch 2 of the paramedics open her eyes and shin a flashlight at her. Another was looking at the cut on her head. "This is not good, she pupils are fully dilated", the male paramedic said with concern in his voice. The other paramedic shook her head at the site of deep wound. "She has lost to much blood we might lose this one",she replied. She quicky got up a rush over to Darien and reached behind him and grabbed a neck brace. "In case she has spinal injury, this should keep it straight", she stated as she place it around Serena's neck. Then they were giving her some needles to bring her heart rate back up, Darien was not really paying attention to what they were saying, all he could think about losing her.

If she leaves him, he would die inside. She would die not knowing how much he loved her. She gave him the feeling that he could live forever and never have to worry about anything as along she was with him. He was so blessed to have her in his life. Now he felt like he could die at moment. And what about his daughter, she looked just like Serena. He had promise her that he won't let her die. If she did, how could he face her? Tears were rolling down his face as he quietly sobbed.

"2 more minutes until we are at the ER", shouted the driver back at them.

"WE MIGHT NOT HAVE 2 MINUTES!", the woman shouted back at him. She was wrapping Serena's head with cloth to keep some of her blood from coming out. "She has lost A LOT of blood, she is going to need a blood transfer, Could you do it?, she questioned Darien. He nodded his head at her. ( I know you need to have the same blood type but work with me huh?).

"What did she mean we might not have 2 minutes? They were working on her and she was still breathing and her heart was still beating right? These people were suppose to be professionals, these people save people worse off then Serena and now they don't think they could? NO She will make it, they are wrong! She will make it", Darien's mind yelled at him. She was still alive now, he could see it, they could see it..BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP.

"QUICKY GET THE PADDLES, SHE IS FLAT LINING!", the man shouted.

"WHAT'S GOING ON? SERENA? SERENA? TELL ME WHAT'S HAPPENING? PLEASE SAVE HER!!!!!!!!!!!", Darien was yelling at the paramedics. He felt like he was going to throw up his lunch. This was all his fault, if only he had stopped her, she would be holding his hand instead of fighting for her life. He watched as they pulled out the paddles and tried to start her heart. The man's head started to bead with sweat. The woman was shouting out numbers and then she would turn the machine on.

He watched Serena's body jump with each shock of electricity, it looked so painful. All he could do was pray and hope that she would make and as soon as she woke up he was not going to leave her side again. Not ever. Her skin looked so pale and her face so china doll like. No emotion. No life. The heard on of them shout clear and she got another jolt. He started to cry again. He when to put his face in his hands, when he got a good look at them. His tears hit is palm as he stared at the site all over blood all over him.

Her blood was dry and stained his skin. His love life was scattered all over him. He kept turning his hands over and over just staring at them. Then he looked at his clothes. They were cover in her blood. She had lost a lot of blood! The crimson color was sicken, she was fighting for her life, because he couldn't tell her how he felt and did he have to say mean things to her? The blood reminded him of what he was going to lose. He was about to rip off his shirt to shed the sicken feeling he had, Beep Beep Beep Beep. His head shot up, he had never felt more happy in this moment then he had ever did. His feeling was like, when you are little and you still believe in Santa Clause and you ask for something you really, really, really wanted and you when you go to if it is there and it isn't. But then your mom pulls something out from the couch and it's what you wanted. That's how he felt.

His heart jumped for joy. He reached for her hand and kissed it. She had several IV 's in and she had an oxygen mask on but she still looked beautiful to him. Her breathing was shallow and her face looked so dead. He just stared at her. His head was spinning. They are suppose to live in to the future, rule the world. She couldn't leave him, not now, not never.

"Excuse me Mister, How old is she? What is her name?", the male paramedic asked. Darien blinked for a minute and then replied to him.

"15 and her name is..is...is Serena Tuskino, please save her", he stammered. His eye's settled back on her again. She laid there helpless and he couldn't do anything to help her. He hate this feeling. The pit of his stomach was beginning to turn again.

But them again, disaster stuck. Her heart was failing to beat the normal pace it was suppose to. He could hear the medics yelling and giving her more oxygen. The ride to hospital seemed more worse than when she was lying on ground. His eyes were beginning to overflow again. He keep saying I am sorry over and over and over again.

"We are here!", the driver shouted back at them. The flicker of hope was in Darien's eyes. He watched as the rushed her out the back of the ambulance. This was probably the most grueling and painful ride he had ever taken. He jumped out the back of the vehicle and ran over to be with her.

"Please sir you can't go any further, I promise to taken care of her! Just wait in our waiting for the ER", The woman commanded as she closed the doors on Darien's face. He stared in the window of the door and watch them take Serena down a long hall and be surrounded by a bunch doctors and staff. He was now very angry, he was ready to explode at any minute. How could they tell him, he can't be with his Meatball head? Then a nurse walked over to him and gently placed her hand on his shoulder, startling him.

"She will be ok sir, please with me, I swear you will be the first to know what is going on", she said with a smile. She had to be at least 62.He look down at her. His face was stained with his tears and his eyes puffy. He look so scared and worried. His face was also pale. She gently walked him to the waiting room.

As he walked down the hall to get to the waiting, he looked around. This was once his home. All those years ago. And it still had that smell in the hospital, made his nose crinkle up. The smell of death. He was having a hard time walking away from her direction. The white walls and floors weren't very comforting. All his mind could think about was what was happening to Serena in the ER.

When they reached the waiting room, she show him to the seats and then before she left she said,

"Don't worry sir, if you have hope she will be fine. As soon as anything comes up, you will be the first to know". She smiled up at the man. In her eyes he look like a mer child. He was trying to fight his tears back but he was not going to last much longer she thought. She could tell he was scared to death about this girl. She placed one hand on his shoulder and then walked down the hall to the ER

He sat alone in a row of empty seats. Just staring at the floor, but before he knew it little drops of water hit the floor. He placed his face in his hands and shook his head. Images of her and him flowed in and out of his mind. The flash backs of him and her of the moon kingdom also came his mind. If she left him, he would so alone. He didn't want to go back to that feeling, the feeling absolute loneliness. Not now after all they have been though.

"You can't leave me Serena, I need you! We are suppose to have a family together, What about Rini? She won't be born if you don't live!", he sobbed in his hands. "I am so alone with you, I love you so much and I am sorry I never told you earlier, Just please don't leave me. I don't want to be alone."

"But you aren't Papa", a teary little voice said. Darien looked up to see his future daughter there with Serena's best friends behind her. The little girl ran over to her future father and held on tight to his open arms. He picked her up and placed her on his lap. They sat there together teary eyes and all just holding each other.

"Hey Darien you are not alone, we are here for you too", Raye said as she walked over to them and sat down to his left, she put her hand on his shoulder. She smile trying to comfort him, even though she was fighting back her own tears. Darien could see Raye's eyes were watery but she was trying to brave for his sake.

"Besides she would never leave you, Serena will make I know, she will", a trying to be cheerful Mina added as she sat down to his right. She tears rolling down her face but was smiling.

Lita and Amy both nodded their heads and walk over to the rest of them.

"Besides I wouldn't let her, Darien we know you love her and so does she", said Lita.

Rini looked up at her father and wiped away his tears. She knew he loved Serena and she felt so guilty for what had happened to her. If she would of just left them alone her Mama would be ok and at home now.

"I sorry Papa, I didn't mean for this to happen, It is all my fault", Rini cried as she buried her face in to his chested. She just sat there pouring her heart out and crying ver loudly. "I am so sorry Mama! I do love you too!"

Darien keep shhing her and rubbing her back. He held her close. " Rini it is not your fault, she was trying to recuse that boy. That's Serena thinking of other's before herself,"He said calmly, " If I would have told her how I felt, she never would of ran off, this is my fault"

"Stop that you two! This is NO one's fault it was an accident, Rini you will see her again and Darien you will get to tell her how you feel.", Amy cried. This was the first time had seen Amy get mad. Let a lone to cry. But before anyone could say anything the nurse that walked Darien showed up. Darien stood up to meet her with Rini in his arms. His heart was racing and his head hurt from crying so much. He looked down at Rini her face was still in his chest not wanting to look at anyone.

"Well sir, like I told you, I have some news......................"
