The Untold Story of Serena Butterfly
Chapter 82: Kevin's Confession
At the Diaz Household...
There was music heard inside.
Star, Marco, Serena and Kevin appeared outside through a dimensional portal.
"All right."Marco said. "We'll just pop in and pop out real quick, 'cause I've got that royal squire mixer this afternoon."
Suddenly a woman runs out of the house wearing a baby diaper on her head and a sash that reads 'DIAPER QUEEN' and waving a baby diaper flag.
"Aah! I caught the bouquet!"the woman laughed and rushed out of sight. "I caught the bouquet! I caught the bouquet!"
"Well that was weird."Serena commented.
"So...what kind of party is this?"Star asked.
Marco looked at the stork statue.
"Bird...Bird Day?"Marco read. "Bird Day? Is that a thing? Bird Day?"
"Doesn't it say on the invite?"Star said and takes the party invitation out of Marco's hand.
"Star, I'm a squire of Mewni."Marco reminded. "I don't have time to read invites!"
"Seems to be some kind of kid-washing party."Star suggested.
"You mean baby shower."Kevin corrected.
"I guess someone's having a baby."Marco stated.
"A dirty baby, it sounds like, seeing as to how they're gonna wash it."Star admitted.
"I don't think this is what the party is about, Star."Serena complemented.
Then the door opened revealing Angie.
"Marco!"Angie remarked.
"Hey, mum."Marco greeted. "So, who's having the baby?"
"Can't you tell?"Angie asked.
Angie turned slightly to the side to reveal she's pregnant.
Star excitedly bobbed up and down while Serena and Kevin had surprised expressions.
"Mum?! You're gonna be...a mum?!"Marco gasped. "When did this happen?!"
"Oh, while you were out on Mewni. And you're going to be a big brother!"Rafael chuckled and showed an ultrasound sonogram of the baby. "Say hello to your hermanito, Marco Junior!"
"Oh-my-gosh, oh-my-gosh, oh-my-gosh, oh-my-gosh!"Star responded excitedly.
"Congratulations Marco."Kevin chuckled.
"Your going to be a cool big brother."Serena complemented.
"Thanks."Marco said and became confused. "Wait, what? You're naming him Marco Junior?"
"After you."Angie giggled.
"That's not how it works!"Marco reminded. "You don't name your son after your son!"
"But he's got a little mole just like you, Marco Senior."Angie reminded pointing at Marco Jr's mole.
"So that would make him also Mini Marco."Serena teased.
"Wow...a brother."Marco said with a smile. "How have I not heard about this until now?"
"It's okay. You've been busy. Point is, you're here today."Angie commented. "Now, give your mom a hug!"
"Oh, yeah, okay."Marco responded and gives Angie a weak one-armed hug.
"I spent thirty-seven hours squeezing you out of my body and this is what I get?"Angie questioned grimly.
"Oh, I just didn't want to—"Marco started.
"Give your mother a hug."Angie threatened.
"Okay."Marco answered with a nervous expression.
Marco and Angie share a tight warm hug.
"Now come on!"Rafael ordered. "We have a baby to shower!"
Inside the Diaz Household...
Party guests mingle about while most eat food and drink refreshments.
Star was feeling Angie's belly.
"Whoa! I felt him kick!"Star giggled. "We might have to find a spot for this little guy on the Mewni King's Guard!"
Rafael laughed. "No, I think stealing one of our sons is enough for now, Star."
Serena looked at Kevin, who brought drinks for the two of them.
"Do you think if Star was with Marco instead of Tom, they would've been a cute couple like you and me?"Serena whispered.
Kevin smirked. "Pretty sure."
Marco pushed Star aside to touch his mother's stomach.
"Oh, oh, oh!"Marco said excitedly. "He's kicking? He's kicking?"
"Why, yes, Marco, you may touch my stomach."Angie said sarcastically.
"I don't feel anything."Marco said.
"He must have stopped."Angie commented.
"You think that's because he doesn't like me?"Marco asked sadly.
"I think his brain is the size of a grape."Angie said. "Which reminds me, I'm gonna eat a bag of grapes before we open presents."
Angie ran off to eat some grapes.
"Presents?"Marco asked.
"Yeah, it was in that invitation you didn't read."Star admitted.
Charlie Booth, disguised as Gustav, appeared with a lot of baby presents.
"Oh Gustav, you've outdone yourself again!"Rafael chuckled.
"Oh, my gosh. I didn't get a gift for Marco Jr."Marco said in shock. "I'm a terrible big brother."
"Shh-shh-shh-shh. Calm, Marco Sr."Star instructed and gasped. "I know! Why don't we pop on over to Quest Buy and get him a little present?"
"Quest Buy?"Marco asked. "I don't know."
"Sure! Come on!"Star encouraged and pulled Marco toward the front door.
"Whoa!"Marco said.
Angie was talking to Mrs. Morrison.
"Well, we were so lonely that we decided, Hey, why not have a baby?"Angie complemented before seeing Star and Marco leaving. "Marco, where are you going?"
"Uh, I'm gonna, uh, run out and grab some ice for the party."Marco responded.
"But we have plenty of ice."Rafael reminded.
"Yeah, but I'm gonna get fancy ice they harvest from a glacier."Marco said.
"Oooh! Glacier ice!"Rafael said excitedly.
"Well, don't be gone too long."Angie reminded. "We'll be opening presents soon."
"No problemo!"Marco answered happily and leaves the house.
Kevin winced and rubbed his eyes.
"Kevin, are you okay?"Serena asked.
"Yeah."Kevin responded. "Can we go to the park? I really want some fresh air."
"Sure."Serena responded.
In the Park...
There were a few people walking around and kids playing together.
Kevin and Serena sat on a bench.
"Say Kevin now that we're back on Earth, just think of all the fun we're going to have."Serena complemented.
"Yeah."Kevin said.
"Maybe after a few years, we can go to college together though I will still have duties in Mewni."Serena explained and then blushed while looking down. "Then a few months after we graduate...we can get married?"
Serena gasped as she covered her face in embarrassment.
"Oh my gosh!"Serena chuckled. "I can't believe I just said that!"
The orange haired girl notice Kevin was busy gazing at the sky.
"Um Kevin?"Serena questioned. "Hello?"
Kevin snapped out of his thoughts and looked at Serena.
"I'm sorry, did you say something?"Kevin asked. "I just got a little carried away."
Serena's eye twitched.
"So you didn't hear what I just said?"Serena questioned in disappointment.
"You said think of all the fun we are going to have together."Kevin commented.
"Actually I said..."Serena started.
Suddenly Kevin winced as he covered his left eye and got up from the bench.
A vision of a figure with a creepy shadow forming behind appeared in Kevin's mind.
"I see...so that's what he did!"Kevin thought in fear.
"Kevin, are you okay?"Serena asked worriedly. "You look like your in pain..."
Serena reach out to touch Kevin's hand but he slapped her hand away.
"Stay away!"Kevin snapped angrily.
Serena looked at Kevin quietly.
"I just wanted to make sure you were alright."Serena said with a hurtful look.
A regretful expression grew on Kevin's face.
"I'm sorry, Serena."Kevin apologised and began to walk away. "I'll see you later."
Serena stared at Kevin in silence.
There was something about him that was off.
In the Lucky Bunny Cafe...
Adyson was spending time with Leah, Jackie and Janna.
The four girls were looking at a magazine that talked about three young teenage boys that became a popular idol singing group in Japan known as 'The Idol Boys'.
"In just a few days, they became a huge hit in music."Janna stated.
"This is a whole new popular idol group."Jackie admitted.
"Ryuichi is the one for me!"Adyson remarked dreamily and her cheeks turned pink. "There is a dangerous feeling about him."
"What? I think his kind of childish."Jackie complemented.
"That's what makes him cute."Janna stated while blushing.
Adyson and Janna nodded in agreement.
"My favourite is definitely Shin."Jackie commented with a smile. "He has such a mysterious beauty."
"It's like you can't tell what his thinking about."Adyson giggled.
"His so dreamy, don't you think?"Janna asked.
Jackie, Adyson and Janna all nodded in agreement.
"Come on, girls."Leah said with a smile. "Are you forgetting about the handsome Akito. So mature and masticated."
"He is so..."Adyson started.
"Hot and smart."Janna finished.
Jackie, Adyson and Janna nodded their heads dreamily before getting alarmed.
"Leah are you privately a secret fan?"Adyson questioned in suspicion.
"Um..I-I wouldn't say I am actually a fan."Leah chuckled with a shy smile as a blush crept up her face.
"Sure, you do."Janna commented simply.
The door of the cafe opened and Serena came in.
"Hey Serena."Adyson greeted.
Serena went to sit next to her friends.
"Hey."Serena replied simply.
"And how was your second date with Kevin?"Jackie asked.
"It was just as confusing."Serena replied. "It's seemed that he didn't want to talk to me."
"What?"Leah, Jackie, Adyson and Janna asked in surprise.
"I've always wanted to have Kevin as my boyfriend, but his mind recently seems to be somewhere else."Serena said with a troubled look.
"A bad date for the first time."Leah said.
"Maybe he had a hard time at home."Jackie suggested.
"Yeah, you both did just got back from Mewni."Adyson agreed.
"Your right."Serena replied with a small smile. "I'm just jumping to conclusions. I guess I have to be used to for him spending time on his own."
In the Wilson Mansion...
Valen was breathing heavily as he held his hands against the wall.
A bit of sweat pour down from his face as his eyes began flashing in a blood red colour.
"Not again."Valen muttered coldly.
Charlotte notice the state her husband was in causing her to hug him.
"You can control your dark side."Charlotte whispered.
"But it is painful to remember the things I have done to receive it, Lottie."Valen commented.
"I will never forsake you Valen, no matter what."Charlotte assured softly. "I love you with all my heart."
Valen and Charlotte looked at each other quietly before kissing gently.
Meanwhile...
The sun was setting down as Serena followed Kevin from behind.
The two young teenagers walked to the bridge.
"You haven't said a word since we started walking."Serena said. "Is everything alright?"
"I've been thinking Serena, do you like being here?"Kevin asked.
"Well, I made more friends here."Serena replied with a smile. "I learned that I have a dad and a cool younger sister. So yes, I love being here."
"When I first transferred here, I didn't know anybody."Kevin admitted. "I never wanted to make friends, but then I met you and everything changed for me. I no longer felt like an outsider."
"I really enjoyed the time we went on our first date."Serena remarked while blushing a little. "It was magical."
"Well, I got to experience somethings in my life."Kevin complemented. "One is falling in love with you. It really means a lot to me."
"Thanks, Kevin."Serena chuckled. "It is the same with me and we will get to go on more dates even if we are fighting against the forces of evil."
Kevin clenched his fist and looked down.
"Serena, I'm afraid that won't happen."Kevin admitted as he turned around. "You won't be seeing me around anymore."
"I don't understand."Serena said.
"I'm leaving."Kevin stated.
"What?"Serena asked in surprise. "Are you going on a family trip?"
"Don't tell me you haven't figure it out."Kevin scowled in disproval.
"What has gone into you, Kevin?"Serena questioned with a frown. "You've been acting quite moody recently."
"I'm not who you think I am, Serena."Kevin responded. "I am not even from Earth."
"Then who are you?"Serena asked.
Kevin took out a grey necklace that was wrapped around his neck that contained a dark crystal.
Serena's face paled.
It was the same crystal that Mercedes, Listol and Dabyi wore.
"My loyalty is to the Shadow King and my job was to bring your family heirlooms to him."Kevin admitted.
"Your lying!"Serena shouted in horror. "Not you, Kevin!"
"I have no other choice, can't you see that?"Kevin questioned with a frown.
"So all this time you were playing with all of us?"Serena asked in heartbreak. "You pretended to be friends with Marco and Star especially me?!"
"No, I betrayed the League of Shadows when I learned their true intentions and came to Earth."Kevin stated. "If the Shadow King gets his hands on your family's heirlooms, he will have the strength to unlock a portal to the Plane of Darkness. This is the key of all evil that will enslave the entire universe in a blink of an eye. As long as I stay here, I will put you and the others in danger. If I can change where I am from, things would've been different. But that's not possible. So it is best if I just...break up with you."
Kevin began to walk forward causing Serena to hug him from behind.
"Kevin, please wait!"Serena cried. "If you leave, I want to leave with you."
"I told you, Serena."Kevin reminded firmly and removed Serena's hands from his chest. "I have to go."
"Listen! I know you think I can get hurt if you stay, but that's not true!"Serena protested. "We can't trust our visions but we can always trust our hearts! And I know in my heart that you would never hurt me! I am stronger with you by my side, Kevin."
"Serena, you may trust your heart but I can't."Kevin admitted. "Every feeling I have said I shouldn't be near you. For your sake, I have to go."
Kevin began to walk away from Serena.
"Kevin!"Serena sobbed and covered her face. "No!"
"Take care Serena, I love you..."Kevin thought with a calm look.
Serena dropped on her knees as more tears fell down her face.
"Kevin..."Serena whispered.
The orange haired gasped and looked up, seeing Kevin was no longer in sight.
He was gone.
Poor Serena...
