Chapter 19

Dc: I do not own Sailor Moon




Darien stared at his fingers for a long time till Serena finally got up and dabbed the cut with a tissue.

Serena: What happened
Darien: I don't know
Serena: It looks as if you were shaving in your sleep
Darien: I guess I must have did. (He didn't want to tell her about the dream)
Serena looked at him questionably but then she just shrugged her shoulders.
Serena: I can't wait to get out of here and into my bathtub.
Darien: Can I join you?
Serena: You can wash my back
Darien: It's a done deal
Serena: If you'll go sign me out, I'll get dressed and we can go home.
Doctor: Not so fast Mrs. Shields
Darien smiled at the name
Doctor: I need to check you out and then if you fit my satisfaction, I'll sign you out myself
Serena: Ok
Doctor: first we need to do an ultrasound to see if the baby is all and well. Then we'll check your pulse and blood pressure and then we'll give you a shot and then you can go home.
Serena: A shot?
Doctor: to settle some of your stress
Serena: Oh
Doctor: let me tell you, I don't think its stress that's caused what's happened, if that were it, it would have shown up. This shot will just keep your mother happy and it won't harm you or the baby.
Serena: Ok
Doctor: Now for the ultrasound.
She pulled up her shirt and he placed the cold metal on her belly. (I don't know what it's called) She jerked a little but then she relaxed. After a few minutes the Doctor nodded in approval and then turned the machine off and pulled out the wrist thing (I forgot what it's called) and a stethoscope. To check her pulse and blood pressure. (Are they the same thing?) After he nodded in approval he pulled out a little bottle and stuck a needle in it.
Doctor: Now this may make you a little groggy but it will relax you. I'd give you one too Mr. Shields but you're driving. Now do you have any idea as to why these pains keep coming back?
Serena: No but I wish I did so I could know what I am doing wrong
Doctor: From what I've seen, you have done everything like you are supposed to have done. Now I'm gonna keep a good eye on you Mrs. Shields. Now this is your first child and I know you don't want to lose it.
Serena's face paled
Doctor: I don't think you will cause nothing is wrong with either of you. Now I will see you again in two weeks and the two weeks after that and so on. I'm counting on a healthy birth to put in my records.
Serena: Thank you
Doctor: Now you can get dressed and you can leave when you are finished.
He smiled
Doctor: I signed you out before I came in here


Darien opened the door for Serena and she waltzed inside and plopped down on the couch. Darien sat beside her and she laid her head on his shoulder. She could smell his aftershave. He began to brush his fingers through her hair and laid little butterfly kisses on her forehead.

Darien: How about that bath?
Serena: Sounds nice

Darien went upstairs and started some water. Serena hesitated at the bottom of the stairs. She had had bad luck with stairs. She took a deep breath and faced her fears. She walked past Rini's room, paint now dry, ready for furniture. She walked into her bedroom and began to unbutton her blouse when Darien emerges and catches her in time before she hits the floor.






Author's notes: Ha you thought it was over didn't you? You're wrong, keep reading.




Darien laid Serena on the bed (it took an effort seeing how big she was) and she opened her eyes and smiled.
Serena: I guess the shot just kicked in.
Darien: I guess so
Serena: I feel so exhausted, I can't sleep well in a hospital
Darien: I can't either
Serena: I can see why
Darien's got a far away look until Serena touched his face.
Serena: Hey, I'm with you now
Darien: Why are you with me?
Serena: because you are the beat of my heart. You are my soul. You are the moonlight shining down on my face. You are my shadow. Get the picture?
Darien: Say some more
Serena: "I love you" she said simply
Darien lay beside her, exhausted as well but not because he couldn't sleep, he did sleep. But he was haunted by dreams that didn't make sense, but in a way they did make sense, he just didn't know how.








Her gray eyes opened wearily. She hadn't meant to scratch him. But it helped him realize that the dreams were real and they were going to happen. But what happened after the dreams was up to him. She had to find her sister and see what she was up to. It took her a long time to find her this time and she wasn't going to lose her again. It had been obvious as to where Jade had gone. She had gone to look for him. The man she thought with all her heart was her true soul mate. But he was not. He had never been. The night he danced with her, he just did to make his father happy. To make him think that he was considering courting a woman. And when Serenity walked through the door, snow in her sunshine hair, she looked agitated as if she didn't want to be there but Silver knew that it was destiny. If only her little sister hadn't come that night, maybe she would have never thought the Prince had eyes for her and that Serenity had cast a spell on him with her eyes to keep him away. She cringed as she remembered the anguish on Jade's face as the Prince became less and less interested in her. She had told her sister that the Prince would not marry her and she had been correct, but she also meant the Prince wouldn't marry Jade either but Jade would probably just say something like "you want him so bad that you don't care who you hurt in the process". Silver admitted Darien was a challenge but she could never conquer his heart. Only Serenity could.




Jade (I only call her Jessica if she is around someone besides herself) drummed her fingers against the hard wood of the table. Oh how she hated Serena and her hold on Darien. Serena held Darien between her legs. Now he was trapped there. Jade only hoped that after the child was born, Darien would be free from her hold, and would come back to her. Ever since Darien first laid eyes on Serenity 500 years ago (really 1000 but Jade doesn't know how far back their past is) She has had a hold on him that I could not break. But now every love eventually weakens and dies, and Darien's love for Serena would be one of those loves. It will weaken with Serena, and when Serena dies, so will her hold on Darien. I wouldn't even mind the kid because she's Darien's child. Se had 5 more months of anguish watching the two, and then Darien would be free, and hers.





Author's notes: Now this is the real end of this chapter. Maybe I made Jade a little too crazy but that only adds to the plot. Here's the thing. Jade thinks Darien was in love with her and she thinks Serenity cast a spell on her true love, Darien, to make him hers and now Jade will do anything to get him back, even if it means murder.
