Runaway
Chapter Twenty-Three
This I Promise You (Part Two)
Darien watched in dismay as Serena ran onto the airplane. He felt helpless--which he hated--
and his dispair was mixing with the frantic hysteria of Serena's friends, who were all hanging
on his arm and sobbing for him to go get her.
"What can I do?" He snapped, overwhelmed by the flood of emotions surrounding him. He
was drowning in it, with no one to rescue him now that his soulmate was leaving again.
*I did this to her.* Darien realized, a sharp pain tugging at him as his heart broke in two. *If
I hadn't listened to those STUPID dreams...If I had only risked it...*
He thought about the year she'd been gone, the ache in his chest tearing him apart. It had
been awful, so awful...
Feeling a sudden crushing urge of determination, he tore his arm from everyone's grasps
and ran to the plane's entrance. Ignoring the shriek of protest from the others in line, already
testy from Serena's hesitation, he shoved his way through the crowd and ran aboard. That
hesistation alone was worth a second try. When the ticket-taker tried to stop him, he threw
a $50 dollar bill at the man and continued running. Finally, he found his way to the section
Serena was sitting at and, panting, stood at the front of the area. Interested in what a hot
young man was doing hovering at the front of their perimeter, the passengers began to nudge
each other and whisper. Finally, Darien caught his breath...
HA!!! Can you believe the chapters over?! Can you believe I did that? DON'T YOU JUST
HATE ME?! *gigglez obscenely*
J/K! On with the story...*Evil giggle*
Somewhere down the aisle, Serena was sinking far down into her seat, groaning, and wishing
she could crawl into a Moon-Crater and die. (AN: Heh...Thought it was cute.)
It seemed like Darien's voice was growing louder. "Bunny..." Around them, people watched
with amusement and curiousity. Darien's deep tones grew closer. "Bunny?" Oh, damn! Could
he be getting closer?
A tiny peek out of the blanket she'd covered her face with confirmed it. Darien was standing
over her, his face laughing but his pained, clouded eyes betrayed him. Pulling the blanket
the rest of the way from her face, Darien smiled sweetly at her and announced to the section
of passengers, "This is my destined soul mate and I love her with all of my heart. Her name
is Serena--I call her Bunny--isn't she gorgeous?" Serena turned bright pink as everyone
laughed and nodded with agreement. No one could deny the two made a stunning couple.
"I made a stupid mistake," Darien continued. His voice still adressed their audience, but his
eyes were trained on Serena and glued to her blushing face. "And for some reason I let her
go. But...I can't do that again; it hurts too much." Somewhere, a woman sniffled and blew her
nose. "I'm gonna love her forever and ever and ever, from today till tomorrow, through sickness
and health, and hopefully through marriage and babies. My love for her could shake the Earth
and rock the Moon to the core. Please, Bunny--God, please...Don't ~*Runaway*~ again."
Serena's bright moonlight-blue eyes were shiny with tears, taking on a bluish-green sheen,
and all she could do was let out a sob through as she nodded her head. A smile crossed her
face through the crystals streaming down her face and she stood up and stepped directly
into Darien's arms. Around them, everyone applauded and cheered, not to mention the
several woman who started bawling with happiness for the reunited couple. As she stood
from her seat, the natural clumsiness Serena fought shone through and she literally fell into
the arms of her destiny. An indignant shout came from the front of the plane, and as he and
she looked up, they saw 9 offended Scouts fighting with the huge security guards that held
them captive.
"LET US THROUGH!" Raye screamed, her fiery temper shining through, as did Serena's
klutziness. "WE JUST WANNA SEE OUR DAMNED FRIEND WHO'S TRYING TO LEAVE
US FOREVER, YOU BIG F***ING IDIOT!!!!!! DAMN IT, *LET US THROUGH!*" In spite of
herself, Serena smiled. Everything was going to be fine.
~Sure, Sere, everything's gonna be great. Until the sequel, that is. *gigglez evilly* stay tuned
for the epilogue. That's all, folks! *Chibi-Angel gigglez too, and echoes.* 'As aww, fokesi!"
