Author's notes: Hey minna! Finally I got this chapter out. I couple
more chapters and this story is done. Well please read my other
stories too while you're waiting for the other chapters to come out
for this story. Well on with the story.


"No, so what did you want to tell me?"
"Umm," Darien paused for a minute "I don't know how to
say this." Darien looked at Serena and she has a confusing look on
her face.
"Just go ahead and spill it. I have like an hour or two hours at
the most." Serena said wanting to know what Darien was going to
say to her. They haven't seen each other in a very long time and
now, it was the first time they were together by themselves. Serena
fiddled with her hair.
"I like your new hair cut." Darien just said really, really
quick to let go some of the pressure but it seemed to not work but
instead gave him more pressure.
"You told me to come here just to tell me you liked my hair
cut?" Serena said getting a bit furious.
"NO, no that's not it."
"What is it then?"
"Well," Darien looked around and saw all the attention that
he and Serena were getting. "Can we go somewhere else to talk?"
Serena looked around and blushed she was getting all the attention.
"Yeah," Darien and Serena walked out of the shop and
down to an arcade center. The quietness was really awkward.
"Remember back in Tokyo? Motoki was the one that introduced
us."
"Yeah, I think that first years that we knew each other was
kind of harsh."
"Harsh? For me or for you? I was the one that was called
odango atama day in and day out." Serena's face was burning in
outrage.
"Well, yeah but all that year my chest was all bruised up
because of you running into me." Serena's face turned to a happy
smiling one.
"You know what Darien, some how I can never stay mad at
you." Both Serena and Darien laughed as they sat down in a booth.
"So what did you want to tell me?"
"Serena," Darien looked at Serena in her eyes, "I made a
mistake," Serena was now more confused than ever. "I never
should have broke up with you. I found out that I made a mistake
the moment I sent the letter and I couldn't get it back, I regret what
I did." Darien looked down, "Serena, Usagi, Usako, I still love you.
I never stopped. Now all I want is your forgiveness. I know that I
caused you pain, a lot of it. I'm sorry Usako." Darien looked back
up at Serena to look at her reaction. He could tell that she was
shocked.
"Darien, I... I... I don't know what to say." Serena was truly
shocked. She didn't know what to say.
"Serena I'm really, really sorry all I ask is for your
forgiveness." Darien had a pleading look in his eyes.
"Darien I was never mad I you, I was just pissed at you in
the beginning, but I was never actually was mad at you." Serena
looked down at her watch and saw that it was all ready six. "Darien
I got to go." Serena stood up and a grabbed her purse. "I'll see you
around."
"Serena wait." Darien grabbed on to Serena's wrist. "I'll call
you." Serena just nodded and went out the door of the arcade.
Darien sighed and slouched in the seat. "I didn't even get to tell
her."
"Tell her what?" a male voice said from behind Darien.
"Why should I tell you?" Darien said already knowing who
it was.
"I don't know why. The only reason I came up with was
that, last I checked at least, you always shared your troubles with
me. Now are you going to tell me Mamoru?"
"Yeah, sit down Motoki." The two friends sat down and
started to talk.

*~~Afternoon~~*

"Hey Serena are you ready to go?" Raye asked Serena as
she waited impatiently at the door.
"Hold on Raye," Serena said as she got her socks on,
jumping around. "All we're going to do is go and try on the dresses.
No biggie." Serena finally got her shoes on and the two walked out
of the apartment.
"I can't wait to see the dresses." Raye squealed. "So are the
other girls going to meet us there?"
"Yes, Raye, I believe they are already there." Raye got into
the passenger side of the car while Serena got in the driver's side.
"So Serena, have you heard anything about Mamoru these
days?" Serena looked dumbfounded.
"He's Jessica's boyfriend." Serena just said plainly, in her
mind memories were running around and screaming through her
head, about last night, the dream, and last but not least this
morning.
"You mean Darien IS Mamoru?" Raye asked. Serena just
nodded. "No wonder I thought he looked familiar."
"Well" Serena turned into a driveway. The house was big it
was too big to call a house, it was perhaps a mansion or villa. "Here
we are, Setsuna's place." Both Raye and Serena hurried out of the
car and to the door. There were two doors to the main entrance.
One on each sides next to each other. They were already late.
"Man is this place big." Raye said as she admired the
mansion. Serena knocked on the door and minutes later the doors
opened and a boy stepped out, or so they though.
"Hi, we're here to see Setsuna." The guy looked at the two
and then gestured them in.
"My name is Hakura, I'm Setsuna's friend. I heard that you
are getting married soon Serena."
"Yeah next weekend." Serena thought of all the things that
have happened to her in her love life so far in her whole entire
lifetime. The most of it was all about Mamoru/Darien. 'Oh how can
I forget about him'
"I hope you have a nice wedding." Haruka said as she led
the two girls in the room where the rest of the group was. "Well
here's the room I'll see you around sometime later."
"Yeah later." Raye said back at Haruka. And then looked at
her dazed friend. "Serena?" Raye waited for an answer but Serena
was still dazed. "SERENA? USAGI!!!" Finally that got Serena out
of the trance.
"Yeah?" Serena asked not knowing what was going on.
"Are you going to go in or not? You've been standing there
the whole time. Are you okay Serena?"
"Yeah I'm fine just a little side tracked though I think it's
because of the wedding, you know how it's coming up like really,
really soon." Raye nodded in agreement and the two walked in the
room.
"Finally Serena I didn't think you were going to come."
Setsuna said as she greeted Serena and Raye.
"Setsuna why would you think that?" Serena smiled. "Well
is my dress ready?"
"Yes it's over in the bathroom go change into it and let me
see." Just at that moment Jessica, Minako, Makoto, and Amy all
walked out wearing their bride's maid dresses, with the exception
of Makoto, who was wearing the maid of honor's dress with was
similar to the other dresses except of a little more design. All of the
dresses were white, so white that it looked blue. It changed into
different shades of blue according to the light. All of them were
long sleeves and it went past the feet and dragged on the floor.
Makoto's dress was an embodied with sakura petals at the rim of
the dress.
"Wow those are really nice looking dresses." Raye said in
amazement. "So I'm gonna get the same thing?" Serena nodded
and saw that Raye's face lighten up. "It's so, so, so pretty."
"I know Raye. What did you think the dress would look
like?" Serena said from inside the bathroom.
"I was thinking of something pink or white."
"The dresses are white."
"I know but I didn't think of it as this kind of white. I was
thinking snow kind of white" Serena smiled as she walked out of
the bathroom holding the skirt of the dress so she didn't trip over it.
Everyone looked at her and stared.
"Is something wrong?"
"No, there's nothing wrong. You just look..." Minako
started.
"Beautiful." Amy finished for her. Serena blushed at the
comment that her friends had said.
"I'm not all that beautiful."
"But you are Serena, just look at you. You look breath
taking." Ami said trying to encourage her friend making her believe
in herself.
"Just wait until Mamoru sees you. He'll probably be
drooling." Jessica said aloud. Everyone suddenly looked at Jessica
in amazement. "What?"
"You're going out with Mamoru and you're saying things
against him like you do want to be his girlfriend anymore." Raye
said pointing out the facts.
"Well, I don't love him all the much anymore and well it's
falling apart between us these days. I think I might have to break up
with him." Everyone gasped. It was really surprising.
"Hey Raye maybe you'll get a chance with Mamoru now."
Minako said as she nudged Raye in the ribs. Raye blushed but then
turned to face Minako.
"Hello Minako! Where have you been with all these years?
I'm with Chad. We've been going out ever since Serena left
Tokyo." Minako blushed in embarrassment.
"I'm sorry?"
"You better be." Minako looked around trying to find
another girl that was there, that would be a good match with
Mamoru. Everyone knew what Minako was thinking.
"I'm with Greg." Ami stated.
"I'm with Ken." Makoto said aloud so everyone could hear
her.
"Then that just leaves me." Minako said after she looked
around the room. "But I want to see what Motoki looks like."
"Nobody's forcing you to go out with him. You just
brought it on yourself." Serena said as she walked and put a hand
on Minako's shoulder. Feeling a bit nervous inside. Minako smiled
and then changed the subject. "So where are you two going for the
honeymoon?"
"Well I don't know." Serena sat down on the sofa. "Kyle
said that it was going to be a surprise. It's killing me of suspense. I
can't wait." `or can you?` The voice in Serena's mind started to
say. `remember that dream that you had last night? And that
meeting you had with him this morning?` Serena blocked the voice
that was in her head and continued to talk with the rest of the girls
like the once did in Japan. Everyone spoke Japanese even Jessica,
seen she lived here with her parents for a few years.

*~ That Night ~*

"Take care Raye." Serena said as she dropped Raye off at
the hotel she was staying at.
"You too Serena." Raye waved one last time before she
entered the building and Serena started to drive back to her
apartment.

*~ Some where with Kyle ~*

Kyle was with his best friend, Trevor, in a coffeehouse. The
two were having a nice conversation about the wedding and their
love life.
"So Kyle have you seen Jessica lately?" Trevor asked as he
drank a sip of his coffee.
"Yeah I have." Kyle started to feel as if marrying Serena
was going to be a bad choice.
"She visited me last week. She looks great. Even better than
the last time I saw her."
"Don't remind me."
"Is something wrong Kyle?" Trevor asked in a very
concerning tone.
"It's just that I'm not sure if I'm making the right choice."
Kyle paused and waited for a reaction, which did not come so he
continued. "I love Serena and all but it just doesn't seem right. Sure
when I'm around her she makes me feel great just like anyone
would feel if his or her girl or boy friend were around. At least
that's what I think. To tell you the truth me and Serena have never
had it before."

"You can't be serious Kyle." Trevor looked at Kyle's face
and noticed that Kyle was serious. "What are you trying to say
exactly?"
"I'm thinking that marrying her is going to be the biggest
mistake of my life. I love her an all but she doesn't quite feel that
seductive when she's around me. But when there's Jessica..."




I'm going to stop right here. I know everyone doesn't like my
cliffhangers. But it's my story. I'm sorry Sere if I'm leaving you
hanging again. I just had to get this chapter out as soon as possible.
I started writing this chapter a while ago. It's just that I've been
working on other things. I have tried to do the best I could but I
think I really rushed it. Oh well please review.
