Hi guys!!! I can't believe how many of you guys like my fic! *grins* You guys are awesome! I'm sorry I've taken so long to get this part out. I was planning on doing it early, but someone got me terribly upset. I noticed someone else had a fic titled Pen Pals also. So I thought, "Oh great. I forgot to check if someone else already had this title", and was totally prepared to apologize, that is UNTIL I read the fic. I opened it and started rereading everything that I had typed! Only little things were different, but if you've read it, you know that they copied my fic. Okay, if ya wanted to copy it, at least have the class to change the name. *shakes head* Shesh, some ppl. *sighs*
Again thanks to all of you!!!
A week had past since the day they had tried to find that certain letter. Serena
had been so busy that she hardly remembered why she was looking for it.
Ami had arrived a few days earlier and was now being fitted for her Maid of Honor
dress. The other girls were going to be bridesmaids. They had no qualms about this
because Ami had been Serena's best friend since before they had even met her. Ami
was in a baby blue, Mina in a soft peach, Lita in a soft mint green, and Rei in a light
pink. It took a while to convince Rei that red was not an appropriate color for a
wedding.
"Well, how do I look?" Ami asked, doing a small turn for Serena.
"Beautiful."
"Yes, well, always a bridesmaid, never a bride." Ami sighed, sitting on the bed
next to her friend.
Serena giggled. "Ami, you've never been a bridesmaid. Besides, you're turn will
come. What about that Greg guy you were seeing?"
"He's great, but nothing to get serious about."
"I wouldn't worry about it much. When you find someone, you'll know."
"How did you know it was Darien?"
"We've been together so long that I'm surprised we haven't done this sooner. I
guess I just knew it was time."
"So what's bothering you? And do not tell me that it is nothing. I know you better
than you think."
"I've been having my doubts. I think it's typical before you get married. Mom said
she had them. Then again, look at them now."
"Serena, just because you're parents got divorced doesn't mean you are going to
also."
"You're right. I just wish I could shake this feeling."
Ami hugged her best friend, sighed, and rose from the bed. "I'm going to change.
Go downstairs and eat something, all right? I will not have you fainting down the
aisle."
Serena nodded and made her way downstairs, headed towards the kitchen, only
she never made it there. The second she hit the first floor landing she was swept into
a huge bear hug.
"Is it me, or do you just get tinier and tinier?" The man asked, still not releasing
the hug.
Serena giggled. "If you would quit eating so much Duo, I wouldn't look so tiny."
She said, pulling away and playfully swatting at his arm. "Where are the others?" she
eagerly asked.
"Oh, around...somewhere." he grinned.
"I was headed toward the kitchen, care to join me?" she asked.
"Great minds think alike!"
Serena was greeted with another hug as she entered the room. Not a "Squeeze-
the-life-out-of-you" hug, but soft, gentle, and warm. "Quatre. How are you my friend?"
she asked, hugging him back.
"I've been good, but it seems like you're doing better Serena. I still can't believe
you're getting married."
"Yeah Sere. How come you didn't tell us before?" asked Duo.
"Can we not talk about this right now?" she asked, pouring herself a cup of coffee
and offering some to the guys. They had just sat at the table when Mina and Lita
came crashing through the door.
"Sere! Did you see the two hotties in...the...living...room?" Mina asked as she
noticed two more "hotties". One sitting on each side of Serena.
"How come I have the feeling you know all these guys, Sere?" asked Lita.
"Remember when we were looking through all my letters? Well, some of them
were from these guys. Mina, Lita, I'd like you to met two of my pen pals, Quatre
Winner and Duo Maxwell. Oh and speaking of which, I should go and greet those two
other "hotties." Behave yourself Duo." She warned, leaving the room before she could
see Duo's "Who me?" grin.
Upon entering the living room, she found only one of her missing three pen pals.
She frowned. Where were Heero and Trowa?
Wufei grunted, "You're such a weak woman," he tisked gently, "getting pulled
into a marriage like this."
Serena leaned into the hug he eloped her in, her sunny disposition suddenly
gone. "You have no idea, Wufei, no idea." she whispered into his shoulder. He held
her away from him and looked hard into her eyes, planning on asking her just what
she meant, when Duo came through the doorway.
"Yo! Wu-man! Come and meet these girls! They're great!"
Serena smiled again and encouraged Wufei to do so. She stared out the window
after they left. She wasn't sure how long she'd been standing there when she heard a
soft voice behind her say, "Did you forget the promise you made?"
"No."
"Then have your feelings for him changed?"
"Of course not." she sighed.
"Then why..."
"Because I don't know how he feels about me. I know Darien loves me and needs
me."
"Do you love him in return?"
"I thought I did. I'm not sure anymore."
"I can't tell you how he feels," he began.
"Because you're his best friend. We've been through this before ya know."
"Serena, please. Give him time."
"Where is he?"
"Out front." He turned to leave but she turned and reached out, grabbing his wrist.
"I'm afraid times run out Trowa." she whispered.
"No," he whispered, folding her in a hug, "there's still plenty of time." He shoved
her towards the door and turned to look out the window, his back now to her. She
walked past the noisy kitchen, where her friends were all laughing, and out the front
door.
There he was, leaning against a poll holding up the porch roof, looking out over
the yard. She came up behind him silently, wrapped her arms around his waist, and
laid her head on his back.
"Heero..."
~K~ Done for tonight. I hope you liked. Now tell me if this sounds like the other pen pal fic. I was too upset after reading the first chpt. that I didn't finish the rest. OH and if anyone's been reading Feeling Alright, I'm sorry I haven't added another chpt. yet. I'm kinda stuck. Worked myself into a hole I guess. If anyone can help, PLEASE e-mail me at Angkis22@aol.com. Thanks bunches!!!
