Hey everyone. Finally, after many reviews and chapters and emails, here is chapter 16. I have to say it was so much fun and exciting to write this story and I'm so thankful for everyone who reviewed. This was my first long chapter length fanfic and I have to say I am very pleased. If anyone wants to email me my email address is sunrays2525@yahoo.com. I don't know where this chapter will lead me.

Days of Summer Lovin'
Chapter 16
By Kasumi Yawa
Serena and Darien had just come back from their one-week honeymoon and couldn't wait to come home to start their lives as a married couple. For their honeymoon, they had ventured to the Caribbean, and for Serena, it was a new experience. She was happy to have shared her experience with her husband Darien. She would always smile when she thought of Darien as her husband. Just saying the word gave her chills of happiness and excitement. She knew she would be with him for the rest of their lives.
When they landed on Tokyo, Andrew, who was beaming, greeted them at the gate.
"Hey! Look who it is! It's the newlyweds!" Andrew greeted them as they embraced.
Both Serena and Darien blushed, but they didn't mind. Darien looked at Serena and gently gave her a kiss on the cheek. She smiled and they enjoyed looking at one another with love.
"So how was the honeymoon?" Andrew wanted to know.
"Perfect." Serena answered as she continued to stare into Darien's stormy eyes.
"Well, we better get going. Or traffic will be disastrous." Andrew informed them.
Darien nodded and all three walked to Andrew's car and drove to the arcade, where a surprise was waiting for them.
***************************************************************************
They arrived at the arcade hungry and jet lagged.
"Are you guys hungry?" Andrew asked grinning.
"You either heard my stomach or could read my mind." Serena answered. Darien laughed and nodded. The three walked into the dark arcade. Darien held Serena's hand as they entered the dark arcade.
"Andy why are all the lights-----" Serena began.
"SURPRISE!"
Serena gasped and Darien's eyebrows rose in bewilderment.
There was a big sign hanging that read "Welcome Back!" And a bunch of their friends and family were all standing up beaming.
"Oh my!" Serena said breathless.
"That's all you can say Serena?" Raye teased. Serena laughed and went to hug her.
Both Darien and Serena walked around and greeted everyone. Ilene, Serena's mother stood, with her hands on her chest and with tears in her eyes. Serena walked over to her mother and embraced her.
"How's married life so far?" Sammy, her brother asked as Serena and her mother separated.
"Pretty good. I'm enjoying myself." Serena said with a wink. Ilene giggled as Ken, Serena's father, cleared his throat. Sammy blushed and went back to his soft drink.
"So how's my little girl?" Ken asked.
"Oh dad. I'm not little anymore." Serena said hugging her father.
"I know sweetie. It's just I'm so proud of you." Ken said.
Darien spotted Serena with her parents and smiled. He walked over to his wife from behind and embraced her.
"Hello Mrs. Chiba." He whispered in her ear. She smiled.
"Hello Mr. Chiba." She replied.
Andrew spotted them both and whistled. Everyone turned and began to shout and holler for the couple to kiss. Darien smiled as Serena turned to face Darien. She blushed and they kissed tenderly, however the crowd of people weren't satisfied. So Darien grabbed Serena and patiently kissed her breathless. She kissed back firmly. The crowd, including Andrew who was the loudest clapped and shouted in joy. They broke apart for air.
They remained at the little gathering for awhile, until they began to get tired. Darien and Serena said goodbye and drove home. When they arrived home, they saw that Andrew had taken the necessary task of aligning all their wedding gifts in the living room. Both were tired and decided to wait until morning to open the gifts.
Serena walked into the kitchen, while Darien went into the bathroom to get ready for bed. Serena made some coffee, and sat on a kitchen chair sipping coffee and eating a large morsel of wedding cake. Darien entered the kitchen and his eyes nearly bugged out at the sight he saw.
"Serena, honey, are you sure you should be eating that? I mean you ate all at the party." Darien asked gently.
"I'm sorry darling. It's just that I'm suddenly so hungry!" She answered. Darien sighed and shrugged his shoulders.
"How bout we go to bed my wife?" Darien asked grinning.
"You don't even have to ask!" Serena replied as she hopped up and ran into Darien's arms.
***************************************************************************
In the morning, Darien woke up and glanced at his sleeping wife. She had a smile on her face, and he knew why. He glanced at the clock and it read 8:23 AM. He decided it was time for Serena to wake up. He gently nudged her, but she snuggled into the covers. He began to kiss her neck, and she frowned.
"Darien, let me sleep!" She said harshly.
Darien was surprised, so he got up and made breakfast. Serena woke up to the smell of bacon and eggs, and walked over to the kitchen. Darien was setting the pan on the table and looked up to see Serena drooling.
"I'm starving!" She said.
She sat down and began devouring the food. Darien stood watching dumbstruck. She looked up and saw Darien's expression.
"What?" She asked with a full mouth.
"Hungry?" Asked Darien.
"I don't know why, but I am." Serena answered as she swallowed some more bacon.
Darien didn't answer and wondered what was up with Serena.
***************************************************************************
They began their lives again. Darien returned to work, and Serena returned to school. Both worked hard during the day and were happy to come home to each other. They would sit and talk about their day, then spent time on work or odd jobs around the house.
Time flew and the couple was married for 2 months. In the 2 months of being married, the two couldn't have been happier. They knew their lives were complete, and looked forward to the future.
Christmas was nearing and Tokyo looked like a winter wonderland. Snow was everywhere and the promise of gifts and Santa Clause was drifting in the air.
Serena and Darien looked forward for their first Christmas. They had decorated their home in a Christmas extraordinaire.
It was nearing Christmas and Serena was feeling sick and weak. She thought she might have gotten a cold. However, her condition remained the same. Finally, with a little urging from Darien, she went to her doctor to see what she had.
She was nervous entering the doctor's office. Darien had dropped her off one Saturday morning, as he drove himself to work. He noticed her nervousness and held her hand during the car ride. When they had arrived at the doctor's office, Darien grasped Serena's cheek and softly kissed her lips. She smiled weakly and nodded.
"I'll see you later Darien." She said softly.
"Serena, everything is going to be all right. You'll see." Darien said with a smile.
"I guess you're right." Serena said smiling.
She kissed him on the cheek and got out of the car. Darien waited in the car as she walked into the doctor's office. He drove off knowing she would be all right.
Serena sat nervously waiting for her name to be called. She tried to read some magazines, but her thoughts would drift elsewhere. She gave up reading a magazine and went to put the magazine back when her name was called.
She followed the nurse into a small room. She waited for the doctor. Dr. Lily Masaki was a young and gentle doctor. She entered the room, and noticed Serena's nervous manner. She smiled.
"Mrs. Chiba. What do we have here?" She asked as she reviewed the folder. "Ahh, so you say you haven't been feeling well lately. Nauseous and you say your appetite seems abnormal? Well let's have a look shall we?"
After examining Serena, Dr. Masaki sat down writing some notes down. Serena sat patiently waiting for her results. Dr. Masaki stopped writing, and looked up with a serious look. She saw Serena's expression and smiled.
"What's the diagnosis Dr.?" Serena asked.
"Congratulations Mrs. Chiba. You are nearly 3 months pregnant." Dr. Masaki said smiling.
"What?" Serena said nearly shouting. "This is wonderful!"
Serena left the doctor's office in good note. She couldn't wait to tell Darien. But what if he wasn't ready? What if he didn't want to have children yet? All these questions swam in Serena's head as she walked to the bus stop.
She hopped onto the bus and sat down. She put her hand on her stomach and smiled at the thought of a life growing inside of her. One made from her and Darien. She couldn't believe it and knew that Darien would be thrilled.
She hopped off the bus and walked to the apartment. 'But now, how to tell Darien.' She thought. She entered the apartment and flipped on the TV. but didn't pay any attention. She decided to wait until she knew how Darien would feel and to tell him on Christmas.
When Darien arrived home he knew immediately Serena was well. He heard soft music playing. He walked into the living room and saw Serena dancing. He tapped her on the shoulder and she whirled around.
"May I have this dance?" He asked.
"Of course." She replied. They danced around as the music faded away.
They sat down to dinner.
"So Serena, how was your trip at the doctor's?" Darien asked.
"Oh wonderful. She said I would be all right." Serena answered with a smile.
"Didn't I tell you everything would be all right?" Darien said with a grin.
"That you said." Serena replied.
***************************************************************************
It was Christmas Eve. Serena and Darien decided to spend Christmas night to themselves and celebrate Christmas Day with Serena's family.
Darien set a CD and the music began to play. Serena entered the living room with two mugs filled with cocoa. She offered one to Darien and the two sat on the floor snuggled up, listening to the light music. Serena turned to Darien and smiled.
"Darien let's open one gifts today. Please?" She suggested. Darien nodded his head. He stood up and walked under the tree, he grabbed a small gift and handed it to Serena.
"Here you are love. Marry Christmas." He said kissing her. She smiled at him and opened the gift. Once the wrapping paper had come off, Serena held a long velvet box. She opened it and there, in the box, a beautiful bracelet was set. Serena gasped and with tears in her eyes leaned forward and gave Darien a passionate kiss.
"Now it's your turn." Serena said. She stood up, but didn't walk to the tree. Darien stood wondering what her gift could be. She held her hand out and he stood up. She looked into his eyes and held his hands.
"My gift for you is very special. One we made together. One that you and I will cherish forever. One I will give to you, and you will give to me. Darien, I'm pregnant." Serena said beaming. Darien couldn't believe it. He smiled, kissed her on the lips and then fainted.
