Chapter 11 …… Relationships
Serenity runs to the park. She stops at a bench by the pond, she sits down and changes back into Serena.
"Serena?" asks Darien as he walks up behind the bench.
"I'm sorry Endy but I couldn't help it." Says Serena turning her head to look up and Darien, a few tears slide down her cheeks.
"Oh Serenity don't cry. It's ok, I just wanted to make sure you were ok." Says Darien as he walks quickly around the bench and sits beside Serena, then pulling her onto his lap.
Serena curls up in Darien's lap and sighs, "I can't believe we only met last night."
"Yeah but we have met before." Says Darien looking up at the full moon.
"But that was so long ago. I don't want to loose you again."
"What do you mean?"
"On the moon kingdom, during the final battle you were killed, I took the sword that killed you and killed myself with it. I lost you and I couldn't live without you."
"But that was is in the past. This is now, you won't loose me I promise." Says Darien softly as he rests his chin on the top of Serena's head.
"Why don't you girls go home and get some sleep." Says Serena a bit loud.
"Who are you talking to?" asks Darien as he looks around.
"To us you goof." Says Mina as she and the other girls and the cats walk out from the bushes behind Serena and Darien.
"How did you know we were there?" asks Ami.
"Please you guys are my friends and my scouts, I can sense when you are near." Says Serena peaking over Darien's left shoulder.
"Ok. We'll call you tomorrow." Says Lita as she drags the girls off with Artemis and Luna following.
Serena looks at her watch, "Oh great, my mom is going to have a fit."
"It's not that late." Says Darien looking at Serena's watch.
"Yes but I haven't been home since yesterday morning. Oh and we left the bikes and the cars at the Bakers."
"I'm sure Rei went back for Chad and took the girls with her. My car would be the only thing left, I can get it in the morning or we can go get it now if you don't want to walk."
"No I want to walk. I want you to meet my parents, since I have met yours it's only fair."
"Ok. Let's go."
Serena gets up and watches Darien stand up. The walk through the park and make their way to Serena's home.
"Where can that girl be?"
"I'm sure she's fine. You should be used to this by now."
"She's my daughter of course I'm not used to it. Besides she calls to check in every now and then, I haven't heard from her since this afternoon."
"Is Serena in trouble?" asks Sammy from the doorway of the living room.
"Sammy, you should be finishing your homework."
"Oh Mom. I have finished it already. Can I wait up until Serena gets home? I want to watch you yell at her."
"Fine you can stay up. It's only 10' O clock any ways." Says Serena's mother as she turns back to the window to watch for Serena. "Finally there she is. Oh she has a boy with her. Honey come look."
Serena's father gets out of his chair and walks up beside his wife and looks out the window to see Serena and a boy walk up the driveway.
"Oh this is going to be good." Says Sammy as he sits on the couch.
"Sammy hush." Says his mother.
Serena opens the door and walks into the house pulling Darien along behind her. "Mom! Dad! I'm home." Yells Serena as she pulls Darien to the living room not even taking off her boots or letting Darien take off his shoes.
"Serena where did you get that outfit?" says Serena's mother as she sees Serena walk into the living room.
"Darien bought it for me."
"Who's Darien?" asks Sammy.
"Be quiet you. Shouldn't you be in bed now?" snaps Serena as she glares at Sammy.
"I'm Darien." Says a tall man as he steps up behind Serena.
"I've seen you on t.v. before." Says Sammy looking at Darien.
"You probably have, Sammy was it?" says Darien as he smiles at Sammy.
"Sammy please go to your room." Says Serena's father.
"Oh alright." Groans Sammy as he gets up and leaves the room.
"Darien I am Serena's mother and this is my husband."
"It is very nice to meet you both." Says Darien as he shakes Serena's father's hand and then her mothers.
"Our son is right I have seen you on t.v. before." Says Serena's father. "What's your last name?"
"Oh sorry, my last name is Shields."
"Your Darien Shields?" says Serena's mother softly.
"Yes. I hope you don't mind but I have asked Serena to be my girlfriend."
"Darien come on I want to show you my room."
"Serena do you think that is appropriate?" snaps Serena's mother.
"Of course. Like my life is your concern, I do what I want when I want."
"It was nice to meet you Darien." Sighs Serena's mother.
"Nice to meet the both of you as well." Says Darien as Serena drags him out of the living room and up the stairs to find Sammy waiting at the top in the hallway.
"I thought for sure mom and dad were going to yell at you good." Says Sammy.
"Sammy go away." Groans Serena as she walks past him and down the hallway with Darien right behind her.
"Your not allowed boys in your room Sere. I'm telling." Calls out Sammy as he sees Serena open her bedroom door.
"They know he's coming up here with me you dolt. Besides they can't do anything." Says Serena as she steps into her room and motions for Darien to follow. Serena closes the door and locks it. She turns back to Darien and wraps her arms around his neck and pulls him down so she can kiss him.
Darien breaks the kiss and smiles, "Nice family Sere."
"Oh god don't call me Sere, that's a nickname Sammy made up when he was just learning to talk." Groans Serena as she let's go of Darien and walks over to her bed.
"Nice room. You're a real slob." Says Darien as he looks around the room and sees clothes and papers strewn everywhere.
"And you're a neat freak judging by the way your room looks." Says Serena as she lays down on her bed.
"Your real nice to your parents too." Says Darien with a smile as he sits down on the bed.
"Just like you. Do you want to stay here the night?"
"You think your parents are going to approve?"
"Think I care what they say?"
"I don't have any pj's."
Serena laughs and looks at Darien, "Well you can sleep in your underwear or less if you want."
"And what about you?" asks Darien as he stands up and pulls off his shirt.
"Well I have more choices than you, but to let you know I do like to sleep either in just my panties or naked."
"You don't hear me complaining."
"Well then are you tired?"
"Yeah we only got a few hours sleep at Mina's last night and it has been a very long day." Says Darien as he pulls off his pants.
"I guess your right." Says Serena as she gets up off the bed and quickly strips down to her panties.
"Your just like an angel, you know that." Says Darien as he pulls Serena against his body.
"And your just like a Prince."
"Well I am a Prince." Says Darien as Serena pulls away from him and walks over to the light switch and turns off the lights letting the moonlight be the only source of light in the room.
Darien lays down on the bed and gets under the covers. Serena walks back over to the bed and lays down under the covers and next to Darien. They both close their eyes and drift off to sleep in each others arms.
"Oh Chad." Moans Rei as Chad presses her back against her bedroom wall kissing her neck.
"You look beautiful Rei." Says Chad as he looks into Rei's eyes.
"I know." Giggles Rei.
"Rei what's going on in there?" calls a voice from the hallway.
"Nothing Grandpa. Chad was just saying good night and he told me a joke." Says Rei as she opens her bedroom door to reveal her little Grandfather in the hallway.
"She's right sir. Well good night Rei, Grandpa." Says Chad as he walks into the hall and heads to the front door.
"Night Chad. Good night grandpa." Says Rei before she closes her door.
Rei walks over to her bed and flops down on top of it. "Oh I could have had sex with Chad tonight but my dumb grandfather decided to check up on us. I'm so mad." Rei says to herself softly. "I could sneak out but no doubt grandpa would see me." Rei sits up and looks at her computer. She gets up and sits down in front of it and goes online and e-mails Chad. After sending the e-mail Rei goes back to her bed and lays down drifting off to sleep.
Lita walks into her apartment with Ami right behind her. Ami closes the door and locks it, she turns around to see Lita standing behind her. Lita pushes Ami back against the door and softly kisses her on the lips. Ami moans into the kiss and giggles as she feels Lita's hands slide up under her shirt and along her sides.
Lita breaks the kiss and looks at Ami's face, "Love ya Ames."
"I love you to Lita, but I think we should tell the girls."
Lita sighs and walks into the living room. "If they haven't found out after a year I don't think they will."
"But now we have Darien and Rei. If one of them finds out they may tell Mina and Serena, I don't want them to find out that way." Says Ami as she takes off her boots and follows Lita.
"True. But Darien and Rei would have enough sense to come to us first." Says Lita as she waters her plants.
"Yeah but I can't help being nervous."
Lita walks over to Ami and pulls her into a big hug, "They are our friends, our fellow scouts. They will understand, they won't shun us."
"Ok. Your right. Now that we are the Sailor Scouts we have a much tighter bond than before. Listen I'm pretty tired."
"Ok. Go to bed, I'm just going to finish watering the plants and then I'll be in." says Lita letting go of Ami.
"Ok." Says Ami as she smiles and walks down the hallway to the bedroom.
Lita watches Ami walk down the hall then into the bedroom. She then turns back to the plants that fill the room.
Ami strips down to nothing and climbs into the big king size bed and gets under the warm green and blue cotton sheets and a blue comforter. Ami curls up in the warmth and drifts off to sleep.
Lita finishes watering the plants and she walks to the bedroom. She walks in and sees Ami curled up like a little child under the warmth of all the blankets. Lita strips off all her clothes and crawls into bed gently so she won't wake up Ami. She lays on her side and watches Ami's face as she sleeps. "Good night Ami." Whispers Lita before closing her eyes and drifting off to sleep.
Mina walks into her apartment with Luna and Artemis on each of her shoulders. "Ok you guys I bet you are going to want some time to yourselves so night." She says as she locks the door and Luna and Artemis jump down off of her shoulders.
"Thank you Mina." Says Luna as she and Artemis walk into the living room.
Mina walks to her bedroom and opens the door, once inside she gasps seeing her old boyfriend sitting there on her bed. "Alex what are you doing here? How did you get in?"
"Nice to see you too Mina. I used my key that I never gave back."
"Oh well can I have it back now?"
"Sure." He says as he tosses the keys to Mina.
"Why are you here?" asks Mina as she closes the door.
"To see you. Don't tell me you don't miss me Mina. I miss you a lot."
"Alex remember why we broke up? You cheated on me with Lisa."
"Lisa is gone. Funny she cheated on me with her best friend Tammy."
Mina laughs, "Oh wow."
"Yeah. I just wanted to see you again." Says Alex as he gets up from the bed and walks over to Mina, forcing her to back up until she hits the door.
"Alex, I don't like you anymore." Whispers Mina as she looks down at the floor.
"Then look me in the eyes and tell me that." Says Alex as he puts his hand under Mina's chin and lifts her face too look at him.
Mina looks into his eyes, "I..I..I"
"Yes?"
Mina pulls herself away from Alex and walks over to her balcony doors, "I can't do it. Of course I still have feelings for you Alex but you hurt me a lot."
"I know. But I have changed. I wanted a relationship with Lisa and she didn't."
"You wanted a relationship?" asks Mina as she turns around to see Alex now leaning against the door.
"Yeah I do. We were good together you must admit that."
"We were good together but I don't know why you came back to me?"
"I love you Mina. I always have. It broke my heart to see what happened to you when you found out about Lisa." Says Alex looking down at the floor.
"She told me you know."
Alex snaps his head up, "She told you? I thought that you heard it from one of your friends."
"The day we broke up, she told me that morning. She said you two had been sleeping together for months." Says Mina as she feels tears begin to well up in her eyes.
"That bitch! We only had sex once, and it was the night before you broke up with me."
"Really? Only once." Says Mina letting a tear escape from her eye and slide down her cheek.
Alex sees the tear in the moonlight. He walks over to Mina and gently brushes the tear away with his hand, "I'm sorry Mina."
Mina wraps her arms around Alex's back and rests her head against his chest, "I've missed this."
"I know, me too. I didn't mean to cause you more pain than you already had in your life Mina."
"I know. But it just looked that way at the time."
"I'm sorry Mina. Can you forgive me?" asks Alex as he runs his hands through Mina's long, soft blonde hair.
"It will take time."
"I understand. Do you want me to leave?"
"No I don't. Stay here tonight." Says Mina softly.
