A New Love? By Small-Lady19

Chapter 10

"Darien?" Serena said

"Serena? What are you guys doing here?"

"We're here for our bride's maid dress fitting." Mina replied without thinking.

"An as you can see, Serena's trying on her wedding dress." Lita stated

"Oh." Darien replied.

"Umm. ya. Andrew and I are going to get married on my birthday."

"But that's 3 weeks from now." Darien said. "Why so rushed?"

"Umm. we just want to get married as soon as possible and what better day to do it then on my birthday."

"Oh.. Well. .Congratulations."

"Darien.. I hope that you'll come that day. I think that Andrew wanted to ask you to be his best man. I guess he's just haven't gotten around to it yet."

"Ok then, I'll see what I can do. It was good seeing you again. I have to go now. Bye." Darien said with a sad tone in his voice.

Darien turned around and left as fast as he could. He couldn't believe this. Serena can't marry Andrew. She's supposed to marry him. They're suppose to work things out and get back together. How did things go so wrong? He's lost his chance now. He's lost her. He's lost his reason for living. He's lost everything that's important to him.

~~~~~~~~~~The next day~~~~~~

Andrew's decided that today was going to be the day that he'd tell Darien about his engagement to Serena. He was afraid of what might happen. Would Darien yell? Scream? Leave? Hit him? Andrew was a nervous wreck.

"Hmm.. isn't this funny? I'm more nervous now than I was when I proposed to Serena." Andrew said to himself.

'Well that's just because Serena could've just reject you, not hurt you physically like Darien could.' He thought to himself.

Just then Darien walked into the arcade.

"Hey Darien"

"Hey" Darien grunted in return.

"Look Darien, I have something to tell you. Well more ask."

"You gonna tell me that you're getting married right?"

"What?! How did you know?"

"Well I bumped into the girls at the mall and Serena told me."

"OH.well that makes life easier for me. So did she tell you that I was looking for a best man?"

"Uh huh."

"Well what do you say? I know that this must be hard for you and that you probably hate my guts.but you're still my best friend."

"I'll do it."

"You will?"

"Ya, you're right Drew. This is hard and it's taking all the strength that I have I have not to jump over the counter and strangle you. But like you said, we are best friends so I guess I'm stuck. So I'll just be happy for you and Serena."

"Thanks man! I'm so glad that you agreed. At least I know that you own your own tux."

"Yeah" Darien grunted enthusiastically.
