A/N: Heya! I just couldn't wait to upload a new chapter, especially since my last chapter was shorter than ever. And I am really happy from all the reviews I received! :D I'd like to thank GinaPotter0183, xSapphirexRosesxFanx, nickybluejess,kimi. the. water. spirit, and SRG STAR16 for reviewing last chapter! And I'd also like to thank all my previous reviewers! This chapter is for you guys. ;D I know it's probably the chapter you have been waiting for! Hehe. :P

So she had told them about how she was hit and how she didn't remember everything. But, she left out the tiny little detail that Darien was her boyfriend. Even then, she couldn't fully explain everything. She didn't remember it.

She could hear her parents arguing in their room.

"I knew it was a bad idea to leave her at home."

"I know, honey."

"One accident and it nearly cost her life! My sweet baby." Her mom sounded on the verge of tears.

"We have to go to the hospital right away and get information on this. Maybe she will be able to remember some things. She seems to remember us at least."

"Yeah... next time..."

"Of course... we..."

Sammy poked his head into Serena's room with an unusually timid smile.

"Hey, sis. Are you... are you all right?" He seemed afraid, if not worried.

"Yeah, I'm fine, Sammy." She smiled reassuringly.

"Did it... hurt?" He carefully stepped into her room, twisting his hands in front of him.

"I don't really remember."

"Oh..."

"Sometimes, I just wish I could remember. I feel as if I'm missing out on something really important."

"It'll be all right, sis." Her brother was uncharacteristically sweet for the moment.

Serena glanced at the plush floor, staring intently at her pink carpeting. It couldn't hurt to ask him about Darien... right? "Can I ask you something?"

"Ya?"

"Promise you won't tell mama or papa?"

"Yeah, sure."

"Did I ever have a boyfriend? You know... before the accident?"

"Huh? Boyfriend? Unless you've been hiding one?"

Serena frowned. She did not like where this was going. Not at all. "Okay... Did I ever speak of a guy named Darien?"

"Darien?" Sammy paused to ponder. "That one guy that made you angry?"

"Angry?"

"Yeah! You would always come home complaining about that jerk who created the name meatball head for you." Sammy suddenly grinned. "I'd say he is quite the genius. You really are a meatball head."

"SAMMY!" Serena wailed and tried to whack him. Sammy dodged and quickly darted out of her room, laughing on top of his lungs.

"MEATBALL HEAD!" his voice echoed throughout the house.

Serena rolled her eyes. So much for Sammy being sweet... What a brat.

As his words began to sink into her head, she sat down mechanically on her bed. Well... it seemed like her problem was solved. The missing puzzle pieces finally were found and put into place. It all just clicked. She was disturbed, unsure what to think. First... her best friends were telling the truth. Second, she felt awfully terrible for not believing in her best friends. What kind of a friend was she to even doubt them? Third, Darien. He was one difficult subject to cover. Why did he lie? Was he just pretending to be sweet to backfire on her? He was such a jerk! He even lied to her about her dreams. Her dreams were actually reality, the missing pieces of the past. She felt like such a lame, stupid idiot. He was playing her all along and she actually fell for it. She couldn't believe she actually trusted him. He probably strung her along just for pity... or maybe, to make fun of her at the end.

But it didn't seem right. He seemed so genuine and caring.

But not at all! He lied to her. He betrayed her. He brought up her hopes, and maybe he was determined to crush her once and for all. What did she ever do to him to deserve such harsh treatment?

Maybe Darien had figured out that she had a crush on him? So that's why he did it! Out of pity and to laugh at her stupidity. After all, she was NOTHING. A stupid girl with stupid dreams. A stupid dreamer with stupid hopes. A stupid meatball head.

She felt like crying but the tears couldn't form. She couldn't breathe nor could she move. She sat there like a statue, unfeeling and frozen.

And she unexpectedly felt angry. She wanted to yell and kick him, punch him if she could. She was furious that she was used like that. She was entirely livid. He stole her first kiss and they made out! He touched her and tainted her lips! And he wasn't even her real boyfriend! Just a stupid phony boyfriend! Did he think he could string her along and use her body like that? Did he not even respect her? Even if she wasn't pretty or ladylike, she deserved respect! Damn right! That jerk!

Deep down, she felt more depressed than ever. He was the guy she truly cared about and he turned out to be a liar and a user. She didn't know what to think. But all she knew was that she felt incredibly stupid. Yup, 'cause she was a stupid girl with a stupid crush.

Yet... she missed him. She wanted him more than ever, to hold her tightly and kiss her sweetly. She couldn't possibly lose him... But it wasn't as if she had him in the first place. He wasn't even her boyfriend.

But she couldn't fight the fact that she wanted him here. She wished he really did care and would love her, not pity her or make a laughingstock out of her.

She really dreaded the next time she would see him. How would she react? She didn't want to cry in front of him. She wanted to be composed and strong. She would prove to him that she was mature and she would show him that she would not take his bullshit. If... she ever saw him again. Because she really didn't want to have to see him or confront him.

It seemed that fate was always bringing them together and she knew that seeing him again would be inevitable. She really dreaded it...

"Serena, honey, we're going to the hospital to pick up your information." her mother called, bringing her out of her depressed state. "We want you to stay here and watch out for Sammy."

"Okay," Serena called back, surprising herself by her calm voice. And she thought she would be bursting into tears... Well, she would save the waterworks for later. She knew sooner or later she would have to let it loose. For now, everything was kept in check, but who knew how long she could suppress the pain.

A/N: Oh no! Poor Serena! :( Stay tuned for when Darien gets confronted! Woot! And please review! I'll try to update ASAP, maybe in a week? Have another midterm this week soo I think I should be studying. x)
