~*~*~*~*~
9:37AM - Darien's House
~*~*~*~*~
Sun shown beautifully through two stained glass windows landing on a couple fast asleep in each others arms. Darien was the first to awaken for his deep slumber and peered down at an angel in his arms.
"Wake up honey." Darien said kissing her lightly on the head. Serena moaned a little and opened her eyes, greeting her fiance with a smile worth a thousand words.
"Hey my Dar bear." Serena said jokingly as she kissed his lightly on the lips before hopping out of bed and put her robe on before having Darien wrap his arms around her waist and kissing her up and down her neck.
"I love you so much Serena." Darien whispered into her ear, in a sexy sounding voice. Serena smiled and played a little hard to get by just tapping him on the nose with her index finger and leaving the room to go make a pot of coffee.
~*~*~*~*~
2 hours later - Crown Arcade
~*~*~*~*~
Darien stopped his sleek, black Chrysler Convertible in the parking-lot of the Crown Arcade and pulled off his sunglasses before letting his hand run through his hair.
"I just can't wait to tell all the girls Darien! Mina well, just DIE when I tell her!" Serena leaned her head on Darien's shoulder as they entered The Crown.
"So, do you think I should ask Andrew to be the best man?" Darien said as he sat down at a table with Serena.
"Yeah, of course he has to be the best man! You've been best friends since you were six!" Serena sneered at him jokingly and Darien pocked her in her side making squirm in a jumble of giggles.
"Hey Seren!" A formilure voice said from behind her.
"MINA!!" Serena schreked happily embarrassing her friend in a big hug, and giving her a quick kiss on the cheek.
"What are you so happy about?" Mina asked as she looked back and forth at Serena and Darien's faces.
"Look at my hand you duff!" Serena giggled and stuck out her left hand in front of Mina.
"AHHHHHHH! OH MY GOD!! YOU GETTING MARRIED!!" Mina yelled and hugged her Serena so hard she thought she was going to faint.
"Yeah, I know.. Would you mind being my maid of honor?" Serena cocked her eyebrows up in a worried face expression afraid that Mina would say no.
"Hell yes, I'll be the maid of honor! I wouldn't have it any other way!" Mina put her hands on her hips, and smiled at Serena.
"Thank you sooo much Mina!" Serena gave her friend another hug and then sat down as Andrew came over to them.
"Hey... Serena, Darien.. Mina.." Andrew looked at the tree of them, and stood next to Mina, and gave her a quick kiss on the cheek.
"Wow, why so glum And`?" Darien looked at his best friend who looked at his with something ... that glowed in his eye, that he couldn't make out..
"Huh?... Oh, I'm fine, just didn't get a lot of sleep last night." He forced a smile and looked into Mina's sky blues eyes.
"Honey, guess what!" Mina schreaked into his ear making him flinch in pain.
"What sweet stuff?" He mumbled grumpily covering his right ear.
"SERENA AND DARIEN ARE GETTING MARRIED!!" Mina jumped up and down happily. "And they even asked me to be the maid of honor!" She had a smile plastered on her face that reached from ear to ear.
"That's *great* you guys, congratulations!" Andrew looked at Serena with pain in his eyes, and seemed to glare at Darien.
"Well, honey I have to go to school now... I'll see you later." Serena leaned down a kissed Darien on the lips before standing up, collecting her books and heading off to Crossroads University.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
1 hour later - Crossroads U
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"SERENA, WAIT!" Lita Kino came running a top speeds down the hallway over to Serena.
"Where's the fire Lita?! God your making people look at us!" Serena spook through clenched teeth while looking at a tall girl with dark brown hair pulled neatly back into a pony tail. She wore a pair of flare jeans, and a Crossroads U sweat shirt.
"Sorry Sere`... I needed to talk to you..." Lita breathed heavily as they walked after running the 50 metier dash.. "MINA SAID, YOUR GETTING MARRIED!!" Lita schreaked letting the whole world know about her engagement with her Darien...
"Mmmmm... So in other words Mina's told everyone..." Serena raced her eyebrows as they walked into the large class room and sat down in there seats.
"Yep.. Amy, Raye, me, Greg, Chad, and the love of my life Tom! She called everyone on her cell phone the second you left the Crown Arcade.
"Remind me to kill Mina when class is over Lita." Serena took out a pencil and started taking notes.
Lita giggled and the teacher looked at them with one of those dirty looks that teachers just happen to have.. (An: You know the ones that just creep you out?! anyway...)
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Mean While - Darien and Andrew at the Crown
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"Hey, Darien, did you hear about the new contest you can win over the radio?!" Andrew looked at Darien who drank the last of his coffee.
"No... What about it?" Darien set his coffee mug down and looked up at Andrew with little interest.
"It's a trip to one of those exclusive resorts that only sooo many people are aloud on the island at once, and IF you win, you can bring 9 other people with you! There just giving it away, on 97-5PST, at 4:00... I think.. You should try it! Celebrate you and Serena's engagement and all." Andrew cocked his eyebrows at him. "I mean, you aren't going to get very far money wise, being a... Gym teacher." With that Andrew took Darien's coffee mug and went back to work.
'He, is write... I can't make a lot of money being a gym teacher. Serena would just die, if I won.. I think I'll try and get the tickets!' Darien got out of the wooden chair and went to work, at Crossroads Elementary.
~*~ Later That Day At Work 3:55PM ~*~
"Shoot!" Darien looked at his watch and booked it over to the nearest radio with his sell phone in hand.
"Hello everyone! Here's your chance to win the biggest vacation give away on any radio station in the country! To win call us now at: (215) -727-8952!" The radio went back to it's normal variety of music, such as; Eve 6's song Here's To The Night. Darien dialed in the phone number and miraculously... IT STARTED RINGING!! "YESSSS! IT'S RINGING!!" Darien yelled and had a few the kids that he taught looking at him oddly.
"HELLO! YOU'RE TODAY'S WINNER! You've got our trip for ten to Marabela Island! We, well personally pick you and all of the other ten people you have come with you and take you on a first class plan to the gulf of Mexico and then you well, take a boat to the island! CON-GRADS!!"
"I... I HAVE TO TELL SERENA!!" Darien hung up the phone after he gave the DJ the info about where to mail the tickets to, leaving 22 perplexed first graders in the dust.
"What's with Mr. Shields?" A little boy asked, as he looked at his friends.
"How should I know? I mean he is getting married, maybe that has something to do with it..... I'm never going to get married though, if I'm going to act like a complete idiot!" They all laughed and went back to there class to go home.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
The coffee shop across from the school
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"That's it Darien.. Go tell everyone that you actually one a trip for ten to Marabela Island?" The figure in shadows smirked as he carried a hand radio away with him.. (An: You know the kind that interferes with radio signals.. HINT HINT!) "Why couldn't see how I feel about you Serena? Now I have to kill you and the rest of the Bradey Bunch Family..." The figure in shadows hopped into his red Camaro, and drove off into the afternoon sun.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Serena, school now ending
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"I still can't believe that he purposed to you!" Lita said in an excited voice. "OH! We have to plan a wedding, and then the wedding shower, and..... OH I'M JUST SO HAPPY! I hope Ken asks me soon!" Lita said as she jumped over the door on the passenger side landing perfectly in the black Z3 Convertible. (An: as you are guessing..... probably, YES, they ALL have a form of convertible... I'M the author so it's my choice! tee hee... I'll shut up now..)
"Lita ... he just purposed to me LAST night, you don't have to start planing the wedding RIGHT away girl!" Serena said as she herself hopped into the car and started the roaring engine and speed out of the parking lot and over to Raye Hindo's house.
"Lita do you know exactly WHY, Raye wants us to go over to her place?" Serena looked over at her coyly, and Lita just looked away.
"WATCH OUT!!" Serena turned only seeing Darien twenty-five feet away from there fast moving car.
"AHHHHHHHHHH!" Serena slammed onto the breaks as Lita and her both screamed at the same time with there eyes.... CLOSED!!
"WHAT THE HELL!!!" Darien yelled as the car stopped five inches away from his body.
"DARIEN!!" Serena screeched as she leaped out of the car and into his arms, hugging him tight as a tear ran down her cheek.
"Shhh... It's OK, Seren. I'm fine, not a scratch on me!" Darien kissed her lightly on the lips whipping the tears that had left her bewildering eyes.
"Are you sure, your OK, I was going fast ... and not really paying much attention to where I was driving."
"Well, you did give me the scare that probably diminished my life span by two years.... But I still love ya!" He smiled mischievously and wrapped his arm around her shoulder and guided her back to the car.
"That's not funny Darien!" She smiled a began to laugh as he grabbed her by the waist and swung her over his shoulder and spun her around. She screamed happily kicking her feet in the air trying to free his grasp.
"I won! I got a trip for ten to Marabela Island!" Darien stopped spinning her around and sat her on the hood of the car.
"Your kidding right honey? You haven't one anything in you life!" Serena giggled as he scowled at her.
"Do you think I would be kidding?! I WON!!" Darien was yelling with excitement, and Lita, and Serena soon joined in on the fun.
"WE WON!!!!! WE ARE GOING TO THE ISLANDS!!" They all did a little dance in a line, laughing like idiots soon after.
"I have to tell the girls! Lita grabbed her purse and started dialing numbers, spreading the news, that Darien, Serena, herself, Mina, Amy, Raye, Ken, Tom, Greg, and Chad were going on vacation in three days to Marabela, private island, and resort.
