Chapter 2 L
Serena looked in shock at her one true mate. No this couldn't be happening, maybe she heard what he said wrong, or maybe he said he was lying, Serena convinced herself.
" Darien, what are you talking about?" Serena questioned him, still not comprehending what he had said.
Darien took Serena's hand and held on to it gently. He didn't want to hurt Serena but he knew she didn't believe him. He knew she couldn't take in the fact of what he said and he loved her more than ever because she didn't want to see anything hurt him or them for that matter. Darien took a deep breath before beginning to explain the true fact of what he said.
" Serena, I've never told you about what happened to me in my past. I never told you because I truly thought it was gone or maybe because I believed nothing could hurt me with you by my side. When I was about ten, I was diagnosed with having kidney problems, I don't know why it happened but I was the one picked to endure that disease. I went through all the treatments they had to offer at that time but it still wasn't enough. As months passed, I got worse and worse, one day I wished all the pain would go away because I didn't want to go through with it anymore. I was so tired of fighting because it just hurt too much. Serena, I basically wished my life away, I just wanted to end it and I believe that it almost happened. I was almost gone until one faithful day all of a sudden they had a kidney donor out of nowhere that matched me. I never knew who it was from but every day I thank God I didn't have my wish granted. I truly believe that I was supposed to go on living to meet and love you. Since I've met you my love, I feel so blessed to have you loving me. I was in remission since then and thought it was over because the doctors believe my body had accepted the new kidney for how long I have had it. Then one day, I started to have pain in my lower back, it was just a twig and I didn't think of anything of it until it started to get worse. Then it soon started to feel like someone was pounding a hammer on my back so I decided to have a check up, just to be sure it wasn't anything. After that doctor's appointment that day, all I could think about was you, Serena." Darien whispered until Serena interrupted him.
" How long have you known Darien?" Serena asked quietly.
" About three months now." Darien told her truthfully.
Serena's eyes widened when the realization hit her, three months ago was their first fight about the picture.
" Three months? When I gave you that picture of me you knew what was wrong with you, didn't you Darien? Why did you blow up at me Darien?" Serena hurtfully asked.
Darien looked into Serena's tearful eyes before replying.
" I didn't want to tell you Serena. I didn't want to see you hurt."
" I don't understand this at all. You got into a fight with me when you found out that your kidney was failing while you should have told me. I should have been there for you and all you did was push me away further and further. Why?" Serena demanded.
" I didn't want hurt you Serena." Darien started.
" What do you mean, you didn't want to hurt me? So instead you fought with me and made me believe you didn't love me anymore. You hurt me there." Serena hit him.
Serena felt so confused, all this time she thought he didn't love her anymore, he was in pain. She took her frustrations out on him and soon started to softly pelt him with her hands.
" Why did you keep this from me Darien? I deserved to know what you are going through! You're my husband Darien, for better or for worse, I'm suppose to know. I'm suppose to feel you're pain but I didn't. All I could think of was myself. It's my fault, I should have known. I should have known." Serena screamed with tears running down her face. She started to hit herself on the forehead for being such an idiot. Why didn't she know Darien was in pain, Serena screamed at herself. She didn't feel Darien's hands take a hold of her wrists until she found she couldn't hit herself anymore.
" No Darien, I deserve to get a knock in the head. Why didn't I see it?" Serena cried at him.
Darien took Serena in his arms until she stopped struggling.
" Serena, none of this is your fault. Do you want to know the reason why I fought with you all this time! I fought and fought with you, hoping you would eventually stop loving me and you wouldn't get hurt when I'm gone. You don't deserve to get hit with this pain Serena and I wanted you to stop loving me! I wanted you to go away because then you wouldn't know what was wrong with me. I wanted to spare you the pain of loving me. I told myself if I didn't have your love, it would be better for you but I could always think back of your love for me before all of this happened when things got bad. I didn't want you to suffer with me Serena. I love you too much to put you through this pain." Darien soon started to have tears make their way down his face. He covered his face with hands to cover his tears.
Serena looked at him with shock. All this time, he was still thinking of her. He didn't want to spare her the pain and all the while, he was in pain but the thing was that she would have never left him in the first place, didn't he realize that now? Serena asked herself. She felt her heart tear when she looked over at him, he was hurting so much but he didn't want her to know about his pain. Serena thought she could have never loved him more but right now Serena loved him ten times more. Serena extended her whole body and wrapped him in her warmth.
" Darien, don't you realize that I would have never left you, not now or ever. I can handle what obstacle life has to throw at us and right now this is one of those times. Darien, I love you with all my heart and I'm never going to leave you. Even when we were fighting, I still loved you, true I was hurt but I never once thought of leaving. Please Darien lean on me, I have sturdy shoulders that can handle weight. We'll take this one-day at a time and see what happens but one thing for sure; we're never going to give up. I wished you had told me sooner because I wanted to share your pain. I'm not letting you handle this by yourself Darien, remember one day at a time." Serena whispered to him. She softly stroked his shoulders with her hands and inhaled his scent. She never thought she could love him more but she was wrong. Her love for him grew more with each passing day for him and it tripled in size when they loved together.
Darien buried his face into Serena's neck and inhaled her fragrance. He was never going to forget how she smelled, vanilla with a touch of roses. Darien loved this woman with all his heart and knew this was going to be a tough road ahead of them. Darien looked up into her eyes before cupping her cheek into his hand.
" Serena, I love you so much. You will always be with me." Darien told her gently.
Serena smiled lovingly at her husband.
" Darien I love you with all my heart and you will always be my true love and husband." Serena grinned before getting closer to his ear.
" Darien, I think we have some making up to do for these last three months. Let's go make some magic that I know we can do." Serena whispered to him while stroking his ear.
Darien smiled at Serena, loving her more every second.
" We'll get back to reality tomorrow, tonight my princess I want to be the magician." Darien whispered to her before covering her body with his. That night was theirs to make a new beginning.
