"Serena..." was all he could get out. He looked over her body that had obviously
matured since he'd been away. His breath catching as he look in her long, slightly tanned,
toned legs, the way her hips flared out from a small waist that was all attached to a flat,
tight stomach. Up to her large bust - that he figured was about a D cup, then to her slender
neck, over her full pink lips that he so badly wanted to kiss. Her small button nose, and
then into her beautiful aquamarine eyes. 'So innocent.' he thought and sighed.
At the same time Darien had been studying Serena, she was checking him out. He was
nicely tanned, had just the right amount of muscles, extremely toned, a nice chest with
slight hair on it. Then there was his strong neck, sharp jawline that she wanted to put
little butterfly kisses along, amazing lips, messy and wet black hair that was longer than
usual. The last thing she caught was his eyes, staring intently into hers. The normally
navy blue eyes were now as dark as the night sky and filled with emotions she'd never known.
What worried her the most was that something was different about them. They seemed to be
more cold and not innocent like the last time she'd looked into them.
Slowly Serena walked over to the deep end step and got in. She sat on it as Darien
came swimming over to her, sitting on the step next to her - his legs brushing against hers.
"What's your excuse?"
'God! Her voice is even more beautiful that I remembered!' he thought.
"Hello? Earth to Darien!" Serena waved her hand infront of his face that seemed to
be staring at her lips.
"Wh-what?"
"Why didn't you tell me you were back? I thought we were best friends?" she sounded
hurt, staring at this man she missed so much, now right next to her again.
"Oh, Serena! We are..." he sighed and almost whispered, "I just had things to figure
out. I'm so sorry!" He looked into her eyes to see the evident hurt and the confusion.
'God, I almost forgot how much I love her. She's so breathtakingly beautiful, moreso than
before. I'm so ashamed... What will she think when I tell her what I've done? I don't
want her to hate me.'
"Dare? What did you have to figure out?" She was worried about him. He had a
distant and very sad look in his eyes and she couldn't bare to see him like that. 'Oh,
Darien. I love you so much. What happened to you when you were in Europe?' She had so
many questions going through her head.
"This..." he said as he took her face into his hands. Slowly he lowered his head
and slightly touched his lips to hers. Hearing her sigh, he took that as a sign and
brought his lips fully down on hers. 'Ah God!' he thought as she started to respond to his
kisses. He pulled her onto his lap and she circled her legs around him, bringing her
closely in contact with his body.
Serena had never felt anything like this before, 'Maybe because this is my first
REAL kiss, DUH SERENA!' The only time she'd been kissed by anyone outside her family was
when Jeff was hurting her. Then, of course, when Darien had quickly kissed her goodbye.
'Was this why he pulled away? Is this what he meant when he asked me to wait for him?'
Deciding he needed more, Darien ran his tongue along Serena's lips. He felt her
stiffen a bit before opening her mouth to allow him access. Groaning, he started to taste
her. 'God! She tastes so sweet. Like strawberries...' When he felt her tongue hesitantly
touch his and then more commandingly, he pulled her tightly against him, deepening the kiss.
It had started out soft and slow, but now it had become hard and demanding - filled with
all the passion each held in them for so long.
As they kissed, Serena felt a pool of fire burning at the bottom of her stomach.
'Is this what wanting feels like?' She heard him gasp loudly as she rubbed her body against
him. Her chest rubbing against his hard one felt so amazing, and the way they seemed to
fit together was perfect. Then she felt him twitch, something hard pressed underneath her.
It was her turn to gasp as she pulled away from his mouth, suddenly feeling emptiness.
"Dar-Darien? Is...was...are...what?" She could barely breathe as she tried to get
air flowing back into her lungs properly.
Darien was having the same problems breathing as he tried to comprehend the
question Serena just asked him. When he realized what she had tried asking he lowered his
head. She was still on his lap and he knew there was no way to deny his body's reaction to
her now. He sighed loudly as he let his head rest on her shoulder. Slowly he started to
kiss her neck, not wanting to stop tasting her.
"Darien...?" she questioned with a shaky voice.
He stopped kissing her neck and brought her head up, looking in her eyes for a long
time. Noticing they were a darker shade of blue, filled with passion, confusement, longing
....and love? He knew he couldn't keep it to himself anymore.
Serena...?" he watched her as she stared intently at his face. "God Sere...I'm
sorry. I couldn't control myself any longer. I missed you so much when I was gone, you
have no idea..."
"But, Dar..."
"Let me finish Serena, this is important," he cut her off, placing his fingers over
her mouth until she was queit. "See Sere...for the longest time I've had feelings for you,
none of which were friendship. I don't know for how long exactly, but I can't help it.
Last...last year...I didn't want to leave. I was afraid I'd never see you...When I got on
the plane I wanted to kick myself. You see...I left you without telling you something
important," he felt her hands caressing his face. "Serena..I...I love...you."

Notes: Evil enough? Yes, it's left at that. I have to write chapter four now, and I'm not
sure when that will be done. Probably soon enough since I pretty much know what I'm going
to write in it. Oh, and I know these chapters are short, but I promise you...when they're
not typed up, they're long. I wrote all of what I have so far by hand, and it took up much
more room. Maybe later chapters will be bigger, maybe not. Anywho -- again replies are
always welcome. Thanks.
