Days of Summer Lovin'
Chapter 11
By Kasumi Yawa
Serena had not gone out of her apartment for the last five days. She sat on her couch crying, or just moping around. She was so heartbroken; she thought Darien loved her. He tried many times calling her, but she never picked up. Darien thought this was really the end.
It had been almost a week since Serena broke up with Darien, he felt so alone and miserable. He went to work in a horrible state. For some reason, Katherine was especially perky and cheery around him. He just wanted her to leave him alone. He just wanted to be left alone from the world.
A couple of days later, after getting out of work, Darien decided to go to the arcade and talk to Andrew. He hoped that Andrew might know something about why Serena was so upset. When he arrived at the arcade, he was welcomed with a broad smile from Andrew, but when Andrew so Darien's dejected face, he frowned.
"Hey Dare, why the long face?" Andrew asked. Darien sat on a stool and sighed.
"Serena broke up with me. And I don't know why." He explained. Andrew was shocked.
"She dumped you?" Andrew asked. Darien nodded.
Meanwhile, Serena had decided she needed to go outside. Figuring a walk would do her good, she went out to the main street, where all the stores and shops, and not to mention the arcade, were located.
Darien was still at the arcade, sipping his coffee and just thinking of the first time that he met Serena. Just thinking of Serena, Darien realized he really ad truly cared for her. He knew she was the one, the one he wanted to marry and spend the rest of his life with.
As Darien took a sip, he looked up and sighed and his gaze went out the window, and he saw the only thing that was important to him. He saw Serena across the street!
Serena had decided to stop at a clothes store, when she saw a beautiful coat hanging on a mannequin. She was admiring it and for once had forgotten about Darien and why she was so upset.
Darien stood up in shock. All emotions of love, sadness, anger, all swept up and flooded his mind as he saw Serena for the first time in days. He was about to walk out of the arcade to Serena, but stopped when he spotted a familiar looking guy talking to Serena.
Serena had been admiring the clothes in the window when someone tapped her on the shoulder. It was Kyle!
"Hey Serena!" Kyle said cheerfully.
"Oh hi Kyle" Serena sighed out. She gave him a small smile that did not quite reach her eyes. Kyle noticed her long face.
"Serena, are you alright? What's wrong?" He asked softly. Serena sighed and for the first time, she broke out sobbing in front of someone. She fell into Kyle's embrace, as she let out all her emotions.
Darien witnessed the whole scene from the arcade. Jealousy ran up his spine as he saw Serena snuggled in Kyle's arms. He marched out of the arcade and right to Serena and Kyle.
As Serena dried her eyes, a voice made them turn their heads.
"No wonder you broke up with me. You wanted to be with your boyfriend." It was Darien. Serena tried very hard not to cry or get mad. When Serena saw Darien, she never felt so much love, anger, and sadness for anyone at the same time.
"Darien. What are you doing here? Shouldn't you be with your girlfriend?" Serena asked sarcastically. Darien stood dumbfounded.
"What girlfriend? The last one I had broke up with me, to be with another guy. And shouldn't I ask you what you're dong here?" Darien answered firmly. Serena crossed her hands across her chest; "I'm free to go anywhere I please!" Serena answered, emphasizing on the fact she was free.
During the whole time, Kyle remained quiet, not sure what to say or do. When silence settled between the two, he cleared his throat. Serena looked up at him.
"Um Serena, I see this is not a good time, so I should--" Kyle started.
"No!! No! Please. I'm actually finished here, for good." Serena said. Darien was so upset that he held his hands in two fists, clutching so tightly that his knuckles were becoming white.
"Well Darien, if you will excuse us, we were busy." Serena said. And she dragged a very confused Kyle away. Darien became green with envy and cursed under his breath.
***********************************************************************************
Darien drove home in anger. He couldn't believe he actually had feelings for that girl! He couldn't believe he actually thought she was the one! He entered his apartment and slammed the door. He went around his apartment, banging and slamming things in anger. He sat on his couch and sighed, he than glanced at his clock on his end table. It read 11:17. And right next to it, was a picture of him and Serena hugging and staring at one another. He sighed and grabbed the picture and slammed it down on the coffee table, and began crying for the first time since he was a young boy, when he lost his parents.
Serena and Kyle had gone around Main Street, when Kyle realized he was late for an appointment, so he left Serena. Serena sighed and decided to walk back home. When she arrived home, she decided to take a shower and go to sleep.
After her shower, she lay on her bed, and closed her eyes and thought of Darien. She then realized she missed him. As she thought of her and Darien, she realized she wanted him and needed him. She smiled at her memories of the two of them. She gasped in realization when she knew she wanted to actually marry him! She then shook her head, when she remembered seeing him and Katherine. She punched her mattress and fell asleep.
When Darien had calmed down, he decided to check his messages, hopeful that there would be one from Serena. He only had one message, and that was from Katherine. He sighed in annoyance as he listened to her nasal voice entering the room.
"Hey Darie," Darien hated that nickname, which she only called him by, "Sorry to hear about your break up. I was wonderin' if you'd like to go out some time. Call me. I'll call you."
Darien smirked at the idea. Like yeah right he would ever consider going out with a woman like her, when you compared her to Serena. Darien's thoughts went back to Serena as he went to bed.
************************************************************************************
A forceful arm grabbed Darien as he walked to his office the next day at work. It was of course Katherine!
"Hey Darie, did you get my message?" She asked, not letting go of him. Darien sighed in frustration, from the nickname, and from her. His patience was wearing thin.
"So what do you say? Wanna go out some time?" Katherine asked. That was the last straw! Darien sighed hard and harshly and firmly spoke to Katherine.
"Number one, My name is Darien, not Darie. So I suggest that you stop calling me that. Two, I would never go out with you and I don't know what gave you that idea. Three, the only woman in my life is Serena, and I will win her back and will be with her. So just leave me alone!" He finished and breathed. He then realized he had shouted, and the whole clinic was staring at him. He turned red, but then frowned. Katherine stood shocked. Darien walked away, attending to work in peace.
Katherine stared at Darien walking away from her. She turned red mad, and cursed revenge. "You will be mine, and Serena will not get in the way!" She said under her breath. She turned walked away thinking of ways of getting rid of Serena.
**************************************************************************************
Serena was lonely for Darien. She was sprawled on her couch when her doorbell rang. She walked over, and walked to the door. It was her mother. She looked breathless and held a piece of paper.
"Mom, what are you doing here? What's wrong?" Serena asked, afraid something happened. Ilene Tsukino breathed hard, and sat down. Serena followed. When Ilene caught her breath, she held up the piece of paper.
"Serena, remember I told you I heard of that woman Katherine from somewhere. Well I found this article I had read awhile back. Serena she is a criminal!" Serena gasped as her mother continued talking. "She was sentence to 5 years in prison for being involved in killing her patients. When she was released she entered another hospital again and again started killing her patients. She was put in prison for 10 years, but got out after 6 years for good behavior."
Serena grabbed the paper for her mother and read the article. She couldn't believe it! She knew something was fishy of that woman and here was the proof!
"You should go tell Darien right away, " Ilene said. Serena sighed.
"Oh mom, Darien and I broke up. Actually I broke up with him. I spotted him with another woman. It was Katherine, and they looked like a couple." Serena sobbed. Ilene gasped.
"You would actually jeopardize other people's lives, because you broke up with him? And did you ever give him a chance to tell his part?" Ilene asked. Serena shook her head. "Oh Serena," Ilene breathed.
Serena hugged her mother. Ilene knew Serena needed time.
************************************************************************************
Darien wanted to get Serena back, but didn't know how. He thought and thought, and came up with the most romantic yet ridiculous idea. He would serenade her, and win her back.
Darien dressed in a tuxedo and mask, walked over to Serena's apartment balcony. He carried a guitar and began playing a romantic tune, and began singing. A few other people, living in other apartments, opened their windows and watched. Darien continued singing. Serena was in her kitchen, when she heard a guitar. She didn't know what it was, so she decided to check it out.
When she opened her window, she saw a man in a tuxedo and mask, singing. She then realized it was Darien! She didn't know whether to shut the window, or stay and listen. Darien saw her and began singing more loudly. The people watched in anticipation. When Darien stopped singing, he dropped the guitar, and sat on one knee.
"Oh Serena, please take me back. I'm here to win you back. I love you Serena, and need you. Without you I am miserable." He announced. The other people, who were looking at Darien, turned their heads at Serena.
Serena, who stood open-mouthed, burst out crying, yet smiled as she shouted in joy. The other began calling out to her to answer him.
Serena shouted, "Of course you win me back. I need you too, and I love you."
Darien smiled and quickly ran into the building and Serena raced out of her apartment. She met Darien on the stairs and the two embraced.
They kissed passionately, Darien holding on tightly. Serena kissing back forcefully. Darien probed her mouth open with his tongue and Serena moaned. They broke the kiss and stared at one another.
"I love you." They both breathed and Darien carried Serena off to her apartment, where they spent the night in each other's arms.
