I'm sorry if the time line is a little off, I'm tired and tried to figure it out the best I could XP


Epilogue


-Three Years Later-

Serena smiled as she rubbed her protruding stomach. Her and Darien found out they were pregnant about eight months prior, just a year after their wedding. She smiled down at her daughter who was moving in her slumber. She smiled at the memory of her first pregnancy. She and Darien opted not to find out the gender of their children. They wanted it to be a surprise. Then on July 15th, she gave birth to a baby boy, who they named Darrin Mathew, and a baby girl they named Rini Usagi. She couldn't have been happier. When the twins were seventeen months old, Darien and Serena had their wedding. She smiled again as she thought about the events of her life that drove her friends and family away from their home in America. It was the events she was smiling at, but the fact that each of her closest friends had gotten married. Raye got married to Jason six months before her and Darien's wedding, Lita and Nick got married a few months after her own, Amy married Zach about a year ago, and then Mina married Kevin just two months ago. Each of their partner knew a little part of their past, mainly that events occurred that brought them here and they couldn't really say much, and Serena was thankful they were okay with that. She then giggled quietly thinking how all five of them were currently pregnant. Raye with her second. She and Jason had an 18 month old already. Darien always wondered why he and Serena were getting the twins when Raye was only having one child. Apparently Serena's family has a history of multiples. It hadn't occurred in a few generations though. Amy was just three months along, Lita was five, Mina was seven, and Raye was two. She swore when all the men found out all five of them were pregnant at the same time, they all were going to run somewhere far away from them. None of them were going to find out the gender of their babies because they wanted the element of surprise. She glanced back to her daughter who was sitting up in her bed rubbing the sleep from her eyes.

"Hi mommy."

"Hello sweetie."

"Mommy, why are you fat?" The two and a half year old blonde haired girl asked an enlarged Serena.

The elder blonde smiled as she ruffled the child's hair. "Daddy and I told you, Rini. You and Darrin are going to have two baby siblings. They're growing inside my tummy like you and your brother did." She said as she pulled out a bathing suit for the young girl.

"Oh yah." She looked at the material in her mother's possession. "Why do you have my swimmy suit?"

"Everyone is swimming. Do you want to go too?"

"Everyone started without me?" She pouted.

"You were sleeping."

"But then they get to swim more than me."

"How about when everyone else is done swimming, I'll stay in longer with you."

Her face brightened up. "Really?"

"Yup. Now let's get your suit on."

"Okay." She said as Serena helped her into the bottoms. She then pulled the top over the child's head.

Serena winced as she felt a sharp pain shoot through her abdomen. She had been feeling it for a little while now.

"Mommy, are you coming?" Rini asked as she stood by her door.

"How about Auntie Mina stays with you when everyone's done?"

"Okay." She grabbed her mother's hand. "But come on mommy!"

"You go ahead; I'll be out in a minute." She said as the little one nodded and rushed out the back door. Serena was thankful they put the twins' room on the first floor. Rini was still wary about the stairs. She walked out of the room and to the living room when she felt moisture between her legs. She then made her way to a chair and sat down as she heard a male voice behind her.

"Rini said you'd be out in a minute. Are you okay?" Darien asked as he walked in front of her.

She panted. "My water just broke."

"Alright, you get to the car; I'm going to let everyone know so they can watch the twins." He said rushing to the back yard.

"Serena's going into labor." He announced.

"Well go then!" Raye yelled at her brother.

The two and a half year old girl looked at her aunt confused. "What's wrong with mommy?" She asked as her father disappeared.

"Your mommy is about to have your baby siblings. She has to go see a doctor." Ilene explained.

"Is she sick?" The dark haired son of Darien and Serena's asked.

"No sweetie. Your baby siblings need to be checked by a doctor to make sure they are okay."

"Oh." Both said before returning to their swimming.

"When can we see them?" Darrin asked.

"Your daddy is going to call when we can see them. Then we all are gonna go visit them."

"And mommy and daddy?" Rini asked.

Ilene nodded. "Of course."

"Congratulations mommy. You have two healthy babies. A beautiful girl and a handsome boy." A nurse said as each child was handed to a parent.

"Thank you." Serena said tiredly.

"Mrs. Shields, how are you?" Another nurse asked walking into the room.

"It's Serena, remember? But I'm fine, thank you. Yourself Rebecca?"

"Same. I just wanted to see the bundles of joy." She said walking over to the bed where Serena lay. Serena smiled as she handed the baby to her new coworker. "Names?"

"Selena Marie and Derrick Andrew." Darien said lightly as he held the sleeping baby boy.

"Very cute."

"When can I come back to work?"

"Give yourself some time with your babies. Come back when you're ready."

Serena nodded. She loved her new job at the hospital. Darien had also gotten a job there and was moving up quickly.

"Oh." She reached in her pocket and pulled an envelope out. "This was delivered for you. I was asked to hand it off personally."

Serena examined the envelope. It simply said Serena on the outside.

Rebecca handed the baby back to Serena. "I'll let you two be. Just wanted to see your babies." She smiled. "See you later Darien, Serena."

"Bye." Both said as she walked out of the room.

"What's that?" Darien asked curiously.

"Not sure."

Darien took the other baby from Serena and she began opening it. She took out the paper and read the letter before gasping. "Well?"

"I-it's from Trista."

Dear Serena,

I hope this letter finds you well. I haven't been able to find you for so long, but finally I have. Don't worry; I'm not coming for you. No one knows – other than Andrew – that I've found your location. He says hi. I just wanted to let you know you don't have to worry about WPP coming after you, they have declared you dead and I didn't protest it. Thank you very much though for leaving without warning me! Darien could have put a little more detail in the text message other than 'we're outta here.' Hope you guys live a fulfilling, happy life where you are now, and if you want, you're always welcome to come visit. I don't suggest it, but we never found any evidence of anyone else after you. The decision is purely up to you.

Be safe, forever and always. Live life to the fullest and never forget your past, no matter how bad it may be. Even if parts were bad, bad usually leads to good.

Forever your friend,
Trista

"Wow. I wonder how she found us." Darien commented.

"I don't know, but I'm glad she did. Part of me felt bad for leaving like that."

"I know what you mean."

"You could have left her more though."

"More?"

"We're outta here? I would've shot someone." She giggled.

"Too late now. How about you get some sleep before everyone shows up though."

"Good idea." She yawned as Darien brought the babies closer to her. She had always kissed her children before she went to sleep. Well, if she could. She gently kissed each child and laid back. Darien placed the children in their hospital bassinettes. She yawned again.

Darien brushed some hair from her forehead. "Get some rest." He said lightly before placing a kiss on her forehead.

"Alright. I love you."

"And I love you." He said as her eyes drifted shut.
