Now Serena walked over and calm his nerves by one long passionate kiss. "Thanks, I feel a lot better" smiled Darien

Then when Darien finished singing that song, the crowd quiet down as Darien spoke "How are you all doing over there?" shouted Darien. Then the crowd went wild. "I would like to thank you to everyone who came to see this concert, as you can see this is only my first concert ever in my life!" continued Darien.

Mina Chan, Andrew Cain, Amy Anderson, Greg Chen, Raye Hino, Chad Wilson, Lita Mathis, Ken Grail, Luna Smith, Artemis Cain and Serena Chan. Can you all please come up to the stage" as Darien smiled. Darien's friends were surprised at he start but they went up for sure. As the song started it was called "On the dance floor'.
The words in brackets are from the back up singers.

While Darien was singing, he mainly danced with Serena as the girls dance with their partners. Then when the song finished he asked if all his friends to take a seat and thank them for it. He asked Serena to stay. Then it was the big time. As they were facing each, Darien kneeled on one knee and look at his Serena and took her hand. "Sere, I love you so much that, oh god this is getting complicated here. People in the audience. I need your help. I want you guys to count from 1 to 3 and I'll shout the question out ok?" shouted Darien
"Dare what's going on?" questioned a confused Serena
"You'll find out Sere," said Darien
1!
2!
3!
"Sere will you marry me!!" shouted Darien. For Serena, she was absolutely stunned. She didn't know what to do, either jump or faint. But instead she shouted "Yes, of course I will" smiled Serena. The audience went wild as Serena agreed to marry Darien. As Darien slip the ring, which had diamonds, shaped as a heart, the audience started whistling and everything that was made possible as the couple on the stage kissed. "Now to my very last song 'When I need you'" said Darien. As the music started playing Darien got himself ready where he was suppose to stand as Serena went to sit down. The girls and their partners all congratulated Serena with the engagement. Andrew and Artemis known earlier but didn't want to tell anyone. Then Darien started singing.
When I need you I just close my eyes and I'm with you And all that I so want to give you It's only a heartbeat away
When I need love I hold out my hands and I touch love I never knew there was so much love keeping me warm night and day
Miles and miles of empty space between is A telephone can't take the place of your smile But you known I won't be travelling a lifetime It's cold out but hold out and do like I do
When I need you (When I need you) I just close my eyes (I just close my eyes) and I'm with you And all that I so want to give you babe It's only a heartbeat away
It's not easy when the road is your driver Honey that's a heavy load that we've made But you know I won't be travelling forever It's cold out but hold out and do like I do
When I need you. I hold out my hand. When I need you (When I touch you) Miles and miles of empty space in between us
You know I really need ya, baby, yeah And every time you know
When I need you love I hold out my hands and I touch love I never knew there was so much love Keeping me warm night and day
When I need you I just close my eyes And you're right there by my side Keeping me warm night and day
I just hold out my hands (I just hold out my hands) And I'm with you darling (yes I'm with you darling) And all I wanna give you baby It's only a heartbeat away
As the crowd went wild, Darien blew a big kiss and left the stage. Everyone started leaving except with the group of girls and boys. They left to the backstage. "Oh god, that's the best thing l ever done in my life" said Darien. Everyone chuckled. "Oh heck, you guys scared me" said Darien.
"Aw, is my baby hurt?" said Serena in the puppy dog eyes. "No, but I'm very happy that you said yes Sere" stated Darien.
"I know, Dare, I'm happy too" said Serena then they both started to kiss until someone cleared her throat. "Ok, break it up, don't forget we here too Meatball head!" said Raye 'Shut up Raye!" blushed Serena as Darien put an arm around her waist to make her come closer. "Ok, since the concert is finished where are we going to eat?" said Artemis. "Ok, why don't we have Japanese food this time, I haven't had that for ages" said Darien.
"Yeah, tell me about it, I'm about to miss me mum's cooking" muttered Serena. Everyone laughed. "Ok then, I'll just get myself changed and there will be 2 limo waiting outside one black and one white," said Darien. All the boys and girls did see a black and white limo. So they decided that Serena and her friends go to the 'Kitcho Tokyo' Restaurant (AN: I made that up). So the girls nodded and left. Then Darien came out but he had to sign a few autographs then left with his friends in the black limo to the restaurant.
As the girls arrived they, they told the waiter that they had 12 people. The waiter nodded, took their drink orders and gave them menus. 15 minutes later the boys arrived and sat with the girls. "It's about time boys, all of us was getting worried" said Lita. "Sorry, there was a traffic jam in the highway" said Darien as he sat next to Serena and took her hand and kissed it. As for Darien, this time he wore a navy shirt in a v - neck type with grey outline on the sleeves, a pair of baggy jeans, which were blue, the same skate shoes that he wore on the stage but no hat. As the boys ordered their drinks and got their menus, they group started chatting to Serena and Darien. "So Sere, when are you holding the wedding?" said Raye.
"I do not know yet, I'm only just got engaged less than 24 hours ago, Raye, and you are already asking me when its held, geesh getting anxious are we Raye?" wink Sere. Raye blushed as everyone chuckled. "So Dare, so you know, who is your best man yet?" said Ken.
"Um, I don't know yet, I have already thought of one person, but I'm not quite sure yet" wink Darien as he also hugged Serena on his Serena on his side. "What about you Serena, thought about the maid of honour yet?" said Mina dreamily. Serena laughs. "Why do you want to know Min? Well I've also thought of one, but we'll tell you guys later as we try our dresses and tux" stated Serena.
"Oh man, why don't you tell us now guys, we mean, it's going to be big anyway and has to come out soon, so spill," said Greg.
"Alright, alright" said Darien
"Greg, Ken, Chad and Artemis, you're my groomsmen" said Darien
"And Amy, Raye, Lita and Luna you're my bridesmaid" smiled Serena
"So those 2 people, they know who they are, are our best man and maid of honour" said Darien.
"Yes!!" shouted Mina and Andrew. Everyone chuckled. "Thanks guys, you're the best" said Mina
"Ok, are you guys going to have this in Tokyo during oh. let me see. June holidays" said Lita
"Oh. you could say that" wink Darien.
"Amy, could you do my a favour, can you email my mum and dad that Darien is engaged with me and we will be coming back with all of you guys on New Year's Day, after the celebration. ok and also tell them that we have a guest when we comeback ok" said Serena
"Alright then" said Amy
The waiter came and took their orders for meals then the waiter asked if Darien was Darien Cain. Darien chuckled and said yes he is. Then the waiter asked if he could have his autograph. "Sure" Darien signed it. Also nicknames that the reporters put in are like 'The mark of Cain' or 'Cainey' or another one was 'Darien the Hottie' sure that was flattering Darien but he didn't mind at all. About 20 minutes later, their meals arrived and they ate while talking about what was going on the next day and so they'd enjoyed their meals and they were now taking a walk in different directions. Serena and Darien went to a park near by and sat at a bench. "Oh Darien, are you sure you want the wedding to be on June?" said Serena.
"Yes, my beloved, I'm sure, as soon as we meet your mum and dad and my mum and dad, we'll see how do they like us together, then we look for our tux and dresses" replied Darien and smiled.
"Oh Darien, I love you so much!" said Serena
"I know too Sere, I love you a lot more," said Darien as he cupped her left cheek. "Oh do you, let's see how much!" questioned Serena. Darien planted a her a butterfly kiss on the lips and said, "Well your room or my room" grinned Darien.
"Well unless you want to let then hear what we are doing then when we yell or scream" grinned Serena.
"Alright then, my room it is" as Darien took Serena's hands and quickly walked to the hotel. Hopped on the elevator to the 35th floor, and then quickly ran to his room. On his way, Serena couldn't help but laugh all the way. Then all night only moaning was to be heard.
The next day, everyone spent with their partners until New Year's Day. Of course Darien wasn't the only one singing in New Year's Day, there was like Coco Lee, Kelly Chen, Kylie Minogue, Vanessa Amorossi, Killing Heidi, Robbie Williams, Leon Lai, Jackie Cheung, Andy Lau, Alan Tam, Aaron Kwok, and many more as all the bands that were in Popstars in Australia and lots more. Now the night has come, everyone was ready. All the girls were wearing miniskirts and a top, which was the same last time when Serena wore at the concert but in their colours. All the boys except Darien, he wasn't with the gang cause he was in the backstage. All the boys wore a loose t - shirt and baggy pants with skate shoes on as well. Now the group arrived, they went to the front as much as possible to watch the evening lit up. Then the party started, everyone came out and started singing a song all together. Then they split up. First up was Coco Lee, then Robbie Williams, Kelly Chen - Flower Universe, Leon Lai - one of his songs from his album - Club Party (AN: I made that up), one of popstar's bands - Bardot, Jackie Cheung, another band of Popstars - Scandal' Us, Aaron Kwok, Alan Tam and then it was Kylie Minogue - On a night like this, Vanessa Amorossi - Absolutely Everybody and came the skateboard with a boy in baggy pants, loose navy t - shirt in skate shoes and a hat which was facing half the front on the side. As everyone saw this, the crowd went wild. "Kinitchiwa, everyone" said Darien as he stop on the centre stage. As for a response everyone started going crazy. "I hope you enjoyed the parade tonight" shouted Darien. Everyone went wild again. Then the music started. The first song was 'On the dance floor' then 'I'm moving on'. Then it was the countdown.
"10!"
"9!"
"8!"
"7!"
"6!"
"5!"
"4!"
"3!"
"2!"
"1!"
"0!"
"Happy New Year" shouted Darien. Then fireworks started, the crowd went wild. Then it was Darien's cue to start singing. The last song was 'Crazy People Rock'. Then the parade finished. As Mina, Andrew, Lita, Ken, Raye, Chad, Amy, Greg, Luna, Artemis and Serena all went to meet Darien in the backstage to his room.
A knock was heard in Darien's room, so he walked over and opened the door. There he was and his friends were at the door. "Well ain't you going to let us in?" said Raye
"Sorry come in" said Darien.
"How did you guys come in?" said Darien
"Backstage passes" as Amy showed him.
"Oh ok" answered a stunned Darien
"You did good out there Dare," said Chad
"Main, I think you probably the only one who can rock this place up Cainey!" continued Chad
"Thanks I'm flattered," said Darien
"Ok hurry up now Darien, we got a private jet to catch!" said Serena. The private jet was her mum and dad since they also offered the private jet for them to come back and also they'll meet them all at the airport. This was written in the email from Amy's laptop. "Alright then, I'll meet you in the limo" said Darien. Everyone nodded ad left. As for Darien he quickly changed into comfortable clothing similar to the one he wore after his concert, then left with his suitcase behind him. As he arrived at the limo, all he could hear was the crowd shouting at him, he signed a few autographs and hopped in the limo. "Did you have fun Sere?" as Darien kissed her on the lips.
"Yes, I did, you totally rock, Cainey! I think I have the best soul mate to marry!" giggled Serena.
"We'll see about that" as Darien planted butterfly kisses around her neck. Serena giggled again.
About 30 minutes later they arrived at the airport, checked in, brought a few things from the Duty-free and for sure again Darien got caught again by his fans. He signed a few cds, shirts, poster, etc, then Serena came and grinned. Darien's eye pleaded as puppy eye to let her know he wanted to get out. So Serena came by and said to his fans. "I'm sorry, but Darien and I have a flight to catch," stated Serena. Then they both went to the gates, which lead them to Serena's parent's private jet. All of their friends followed Darien and Serena and was absolutely in awe including Darien! He couldn't believe it; this jet was a lot bigger, with private bedrooms, about 2 offices, a conference office and many more. Serena was use to this, because she has been on this jet since she was 5. "Alright guys, make yourselves feel right at home!" said Serena.
"Ok" said her friends. Darien and Serena were in one of the offices planning their wedding while all the others went to sleep. "So Cainey, when in June do you want the wedding to be held?" questioned Serena.
"Well how about on the 30th?" answered Darien
"Ok, on the . you mean on my birthday?"
"Uh huh" "You're kidding right?"
"Nope I'm not"
Oh Darien you're the best" as Serena hugged him. "Ok lets get going on with the plan" said Darien
"Ok are we having a honeymoon?"
"Yes, how about New York"
"Alright, sounds good to me"
"What about the reception"
"That will be held at a hall"
"Ok, so we need to book: chefs, waitress and we find about more information of the meals"
"Then we'll have the wedding held at the White Moon, there is also a beautiful place we can take photo, so we have it there"
"Ok, its looking good to me now Dare"
"What is there missing?"
"Time?"
"Yes, when do you want it?"
"Well say about 9.00am then the dinner around 6.00pm, between there it will give me time to change from my wedding dress to the reception dress and also take photos"
"Ok"
"So now I have to book hairdressing appointments, make up appointments, the hall needs to be book, chefs and waitress/waiter needed, dresses and tux need to be fit, book a flight to New York, church needs to be book, oh man how am I going to do this, I need our mums and dads to help me!"
"Don't worry Sere, I'm sure my mum and dad will help"
"Thanks Dare"
About 3 hours later, they arrived at Tokyo and went through the custom and immigration checks. Then once at the arrival terminal, Serena spotted her parents very quickly. Irene and Ken were impressed that she is engaged to a handsome boy and also arrived home safety. "Mom, Dad!" said Serena
"Serena!" said her parents
"We've missed you so much Sere" continued Irene
"So have I mom" said Serena
"Mom, Dad I would like you to meet my friends, now you know Amy, Raye, Lita, Mina and Luna. I would also like you to meet their boyfriends, Greg, Chad, Ken, Artemis and Andrew. Andrew and Artemis are Darien's brothers. Also I would like you to meet my fiancee Darien Cain," stated Serena
"Hello, my name is Irene and this is my husband Ken, it's all mice to meet you, especially Darien" said Irene
"Now let's get to the limo and you will be all dropped off at the correct places" said Ken Everyone nodded and followed Serena and her parents.

Then when Darien finished singing that song, the crowd quiet down as Darien spoke "How are you all doing over there?" shouted Darien. Then the crowd went wild. "I would like to thank you to everyone who came to see this concert, as you can see this is only my first concert ever in my life!" continued Darien. "I would like to ask these people to come up and join me dancing in this mix. Mina Chan, Andrew Cain, Amy Anderson, Greg Chen, Raye Hino, Chad Wilson, Lita Mathis, Ken Grail, Luna Smith, Artemis Cain and Serena Chan. Can you all please come up to the stage" as Darien smiled. Darien's friends were surprised at he start but they went up for sure. As the song started it was called "On the dance floor'.
The words in brackets are from the back up singers.

While Darien was singing, he mainly danced with Serena as the girls dance with their partners. Then when the song finished he asked if all his friends to take a seat and thank them for it. He asked Serena to stay. Then it was the big time. As they were facing each, Darien kneeled on one knee and look at his Serena and took her hand. "Sere, I love you so much that, oh god this is getting complicated here. People in the audience. I need your help. I want you guys to count from 1 to 3 and I'll shout the question out ok?" shouted Darien
"Dare what's going on?" questioned a confused Serena
"You'll find out Sere," said Darien
1!
2!
3!
"Sere will you marry me!!" shouted Darien. For Serena, she was absolutely stunned. She didn't know what to do, either jump or faint. But instead she shouted "Yes, of course I will" smiled Serena. The audience went wild as Serena agreed to marry Darien. As Darien slip the ring, which had diamonds, shaped as a heart, the audience started whistling and everything that was made possible as the couple on the stage kissed. "Now to my very last song 'When I need you'" said Darien. As the music started playing Darien got himself ready where he was suppose to stand as Serena went to sit down. The girls and their partners all congratulated Serena with the engagement. Andrew and Artemis known earlier but didn't want to tell anyone. Then Darien started singing.
When I need you I just close my eyes and I'm with you And all that I so want to give you It's only a heartbeat away
When I need love I hold out my hands and I touch love I never knew there was so much love keeping me warm night and day
Miles and miles of empty space between is A telephone can't take the place of your smile But you known I won't be travelling a lifetime It's cold out but hold out and do like I do
When I need you (When I need you) I just close my eyes (I just close my eyes) and I'm with you And all that I so want to give you babe It's only a heartbeat away
It's not easy when the road is your driver Honey that's a heavy load that we've made But you know I won't be travelling forever It's cold out but hold out and do like I do
When I need you. I hold out my hand. When I need you (When I touch you) Miles and miles of empty space in between us
You know I really need ya, baby, yeah And every time you know
When I need you love I hold out my hands and I touch love I never knew there was so much love Keeping me warm night and day
When I need you I just close my eyes And you're right there by my side Keeping me warm night and day
I just hold out my hands (I just hold out my hands) And I'm with you darling (yes I'm with you darling) And all I wanna give you baby It's only a heartbeat away
As the crowd went wild, Darien blew a big kiss and left the stage. Everyone started leaving except with the group of girls and boys. They left to the backstage. "Oh god, that's the best thing l ever done in my life" said Darien. Everyone chuckled. "Oh heck, you guys scared me" said Darien.
"Aw, is my baby hurt?" said Serena in the puppy dog eyes. "No, but I'm very happy that you said yes Sere" stated Darien.
"I know, Dare, I'm happy too" said Serena then they both started to kiss until someone cleared her throat. "Ok, break it up, don't forget we here too Meatball head!" said Raye 'Shut up Raye!" blushed Serena as Darien put an arm around her waist to make her come closer. "Ok, since the concert is finished where are we going to eat?" said Artemis. "Ok, why don't we have Japanese food this time, I haven't had that for ages" said Darien.
"Yeah, tell me about it, I'm about to miss me mum's cooking" muttered Serena. Everyone laughed. "Ok then, I'll just get myself changed and there will be 2 limo waiting outside one black and one white," said Darien. All the boys and girls did see a black and white limo. So they decided that Serena and her friends go to the 'Kitcho Tokyo' Restaurant (AN: I made that up). So the girls nodded and left. Then Darien came out but he had to sign a few autographs then left with his friends in the black limo to the restaurant.
As the girls arrived they, they told the waiter that they had 12 people. The waiter nodded, took their drink orders and gave them menus. 15 minutes later the boys arrived and sat with the girls. "It's about time boys, all of us was getting worried" said Lita. "Sorry, there was a traffic jam in the highway" said Darien as he sat next to Serena and took her hand and kissed it. As for Darien, this time he wore a navy shirt in a v - neck type with grey outline on the sleeves, a pair of baggy jeans, which were blue, the same skate shoes that he wore on the stage but no hat. As the boys ordered their drinks and got their menus, they group started chatting to Serena and Darien. "So Sere, when are you holding the wedding?" said Raye.
"I do not know yet, I'm only just got engaged less than 24 hours ago, Raye, and you are already asking me when its held, geesh getting anxious are we Raye?" wink Sere. Raye blushed as everyone chuckled. "So Dare, so you know, who is your best man yet?" said Ken.
"Um, I don't know yet, I have already thought of one person, but I'm not quite sure yet" wink Darien as he also hugged Serena on his Serena on his side. "What about you Serena, thought about the maid of honour yet?" said Mina dreamily. Serena laughs. "Why do you want to know Min? Well I've also thought of one, but we'll tell you guys later as we try our dresses and tux" stated Serena.
"Oh man, why don't you tell us now guys, we mean, it's going to be big anyway and has to come out soon, so spill," said Greg.
"Alright, alright" said Darien
"Greg, Ken, Chad and Artemis, you're my groomsmen" said Darien
"And Amy, Raye, Lita and Luna you're my bridesmaid" smiled Serena
"So those 2 people, they know who they are, are our best man and maid of honour" said Darien.
"Yes!!" shouted Mina and Andrew. Everyone chuckled. "Thanks guys, you're the best" said Mina
"Ok, are you guys going to have this in Tokyo during oh. let me see. June holidays" said Lita
"Oh. you could say that" wink Darien.
"Amy, could you do my a favour, can you email my mum and dad that Darien is engaged with me and we will be coming back with all of you guys on New Year's Day, after the celebration. ok and also tell them that we have a guest when we comeback ok" said Serena
"Alright then" said Amy
The waiter came and took their orders for meals then the waiter asked if Darien was Darien Cain. Darien chuckled and said yes he is. Then the waiter asked if he could have his autograph. "Sure" Darien signed it. Also nicknames that the reporters put in are like 'The mark of Cain' or 'Cainey' or another one was 'Darien the Hottie' sure that was flattering Darien but he didn't mind at all. About 20 minutes later, their meals arrived and they ate while talking about what was going on the next day and so they'd enjoyed their meals and they were now taking a walk in different directions. Serena and Darien went to a park near by and sat at a bench. "Oh Darien, are you sure you want the wedding to be on June?" said Serena.
"Yes, my beloved, I'm sure, as soon as we meet your mum and dad and my mum and dad, we'll see how do they like us together, then we look for our tux and dresses" replied Darien and smiled.
"Oh Darien, I love you so much!" said Serena
"I know too Sere, I love you a lot more," said Darien as he cupped her left cheek. "Oh do you, let's see how much!" questioned Serena. Darien planted a her a butterfly kiss on the lips and said, "Well your room or my room" grinned Darien.
"Well unless you want to let then hear what we are doing then when we yell or scream" grinned Serena.
"Alright then, my room it is" as Darien took Serena's hands and quickly walked to the hotel. Hopped on the elevator to the 35th floor, and then quickly ran to his room. On his way, Serena couldn't help but laugh all the way. Then all night only moaning was to be heard.
The next day, everyone spent with their partners until New Year's Day. Of course Darien wasn't the only one singing in New Year's Day, there was like Coco Lee, Kelly Chen, Kylie Minogue, Vanessa Amorossi, Killing Heidi, Robbie Williams, Leon Lai, Jackie Cheung, Andy Lau, Alan Tam, Aaron Kwok, and many more as all the bands that were in Popstars in Australia and lots more. Now the night has come, everyone was ready. All the girls were wearing miniskirts and a top, which was the same last time when Serena wore at the concert but in their colours. All the boys except Darien, he wasn't with the gang cause he was in the backstage. All the boys wore a loose t - shirt and baggy pants with skate shoes on as well. Now the group arrived, they went to the front as much as possible to watch the evening lit up. Then the party started, everyone came out and started singing a song all together. Then they split up. First up was Coco Lee, then Robbie Williams, Kelly Chen - Flower Universe, Leon Lai - one of his songs from his album - Club Party (AN: I made that up), one of popstar's bands - Bardot, Jackie Cheung, another band of Popstars - Scandal' Us, Aaron Kwok, Alan Tam and then it was Kylie Minogue - On a night like this, Vanessa Amorossi - Absolutely Everybody and came the skateboard with a boy in baggy pants, loose navy t - shirt in skate shoes and a hat which was facing half the front on the side. As everyone saw this, the crowd went wild. "Kinitchiwa, everyone" said Darien as he stop on the centre stage. As for a response everyone started going crazy. "I hope you enjoyed the parade tonight" shouted Darien. Everyone went wild again. Then the music started. The first song was 'On the dance floor' then 'I'm moving on'. Then it was the countdown.
"10!"
"9!"
"8!"
"7!"
"6!"
"5!"
"4!"
"3!"
"2!"
"1!"
"0!"
"Happy New Year" shouted Darien. Then fireworks started, the crowd went wild. Then it was Darien's cue to start singing. The last song was 'Crazy People Rock'. Then the parade finished. As Mina, Andrew, Lita, Ken, Raye, Chad, Amy, Greg, Luna, Artemis and Serena all went to meet Darien in the backstage to his room.
A knock was heard in Darien's room, so he walked over and opened the door. There he was and his friends were at the door. "Well ain't you going to let us in?" said Raye
"Sorry come in" said Darien.
"How did you guys come in?" said Darien
"Backstage passes" as Amy showed him.
"Oh ok" answered a stunned Darien
"You did good out there Dare," said Chad
"Main, I think you probably the only one who can rock this place up Cainey!" continued Chad
"Thanks I'm flattered," said Darien
"Ok hurry up now Darien, we got a private jet to catch!" said Serena. The private jet was her mum and dad since they also offered the private jet for them to come back and also they'll meet them all at the airport. This was written in the email from Amy's laptop. "Alright then, I'll meet you in the limo" said Darien. Everyone nodded ad left. As for Darien he quickly changed into comfortable clothing similar to the one he wore after his concert, then left with his suitcase behind him. As he arrived at the limo, all he could hear was the crowd shouting at him, he signed a few autographs and hopped in the limo. "Did you have fun Sere?" as Darien kissed her on the lips.
"Yes, I did, you totally rock, Cainey! I think I have the best soul mate to marry!" giggled Serena.
"We'll see about that" as Darien planted butterfly kisses around her neck. Serena giggled again.
About 30 minutes later they arrived at the airport, checked in, brought a few things from the Duty-free and for sure again Darien got caught again by his fans. He signed a few cds, shirts, poster, etc, then Serena came and grinned. Darien's eye pleaded as puppy eye to let her know he wanted to get out. So Serena came by and said to his fans. "I'm sorry, but Darien and I have a flight to catch," stated Serena. Then they both went to the gates, which lead them to Serena's parent's private jet. All of their friends followed Darien and Serena and was absolutely in awe including Darien! He couldn't believe it; this jet was a lot bigger, with private bedrooms, about 2 offices, a conference office and many more. Serena was use to this, because she has been on this jet since she was 5. "Alright guys, make yourselves feel right at home!" said Serena.
"Ok" said her friends. Darien and Serena were in one of the offices planning their wedding while all the others went to sleep. "So Cainey, when in June do you want the wedding to be held?" questioned Serena.
"Well how about on the 30th?" answered Darien
"Ok, on the . you mean on my birthday?"
"Uh huh" "You're kidding right?"
"Nope I'm not"
Oh Darien you're the best" as Serena hugged him. "Ok lets get going on with the plan" said Darien
"Ok are we having a honeymoon?"
"Yes, how about New York"
"Alright, sounds good to me"
"What about the reception"
"That will be held at a hall"
"Ok, so we need to book: chefs, waitress and we find about more information of the meals"
"Then we'll have the wedding held at the White Moon, there is also a beautiful place we can take photo, so we have it there"
"Ok, its looking good to me now Dare"
"What is there missing?"
"Time?"
"Yes, when do you want it?"
"Well say about 9.00am then the dinner around 6.00pm, between there it will give me time to change from my wedding dress to the reception dress and also take photos"
"Ok"
"So now I have to book hairdressing appointments, make up appointments, the hall needs to be book, chefs and waitress/waiter needed, dresses and tux need to be fit, book a flight to New York, church needs to be book, oh man how am I going to do this, I need our mums and dads to help me!"
"Don't worry Sere, I'm sure my mum and dad will help"
"Thanks Dare"
About 3 hours later, they arrived at Tokyo and went through the custom and immigration checks. Then once at the arrival terminal, Serena spotted her parents very quickly. Irene and Ken were impressed that she is engaged to a handsome boy and also arrived home safety. "Mom, Dad!" said Serena
"Serena!" said her parents
"We've missed you so much Sere" continued Irene
"So have I mom" said Serena
"Mom, Dad I would like you to meet my friends, now you know Amy, Raye, Lita, Mina and Luna. I would also like you to meet their boyfriends, Greg, Chad, Ken, Artemis and Andrew. Andrew and Artemis are Darien's brothers. Also I would like you to meet my fiancee Darien Cain," stated Serena
"Hello, my name is Irene and this is my husband Ken, it's all mice to meet you, especially Darien" said Irene
