"Thanks Mrs. Tsukino. I really can't express my gratitude to you for helping me out." Darien adored Serena's mom. She was like the mother he never had, at least not that he could remember. But Serena's father was a different story. Darien was scared of him. He had been since the first day he meet him. It was the day before he broke things off with Serena because of a dream. But things were different now. He loved her and they were together. That's what counted. Serena's brother? Well, he was just...there.

"No problem Darien. Oh I can't believe this is happening!" Tears started to form in the mother's eyes and Darien could hear her sniffle. He could also hear the distinct sound of grumbling coming from a very mad and over-protective father in the background. "It seems only yesterday I was changing her diapers and holding her in my arms!" She grabbed a nearby napkin and wiped away the tears.

"Well then, I'll see you tomorrow...I still don't know how you'll get her ready without her suspecting anything." Darien was still skeptical on whether or not Serena would find out.

Mrs. Tsukino smiled sweetly. "Darien, my dear, there are just some things you don't know about the relationship between a mother and her daughter. I can get her ready, don't you worry! Just practice your line for tomorrow so you don't screw up!" She smiled knowing exactly what Darien's face looked like on the other end of the phone.

"Well," he started with a hint of doubt in his voice, "I trust you. Bye Mrs. Tsukino and thank you again." He really did need to go over his lines, so he had to get off.

"You're very welcome...bye Darien and I'll see you tomorrow!" She hung up the phone and went back to cleaning the dishes.

"Who was on the phone mom?" A very curious Serena entered the room.

"It was from a friend. You don't know him. He was just checking up on me to see how I was doing." The mother replied casually though very scared inside that Serena had overheard the conversation.

"Oh. Ok, I'll be upstairs!" She walked out of the room leaving a very shocked mother standing there.

"I can't believe she bought that!" She turned around, very relieved, and started to clean again.
