Darien wandered the hallways looking for the right room Serena had told she would be in. He then spotted Ami standing outside a door clasping her hands to her chest in a worried position. She then turned her blue eyes to see Darien walking towards her and her worried thin lips turned into a smile.

"You came!" She smiled.

"Yeah why wouldn't I?" Darien asked suspiciously.

"Oh. . .I don't know. Serena is in there already go in."

Darien pushed the door open and looked in to see Serena sitting on the plastic covered reclining chair uncomfortably dressed in a smock printed with green dots on it. The doctor, a sweet faced lady, held up a large paddle on Serena's exposed, greased stomach. "I am. . ."

"Yes Darien get over here now." Serena snapped.

The doctor looked at both of them and stepped away from Darien a little ways and asked, "Is that the father of this baby?"

"No of course not." Serena answered.

"I will be though, even if it's not mine I am going to love it." Darien corrected flashing an angelic smile.

The nurse shook her head, "Whatever you say sir."

"Have you found it yet, that paddle is cold!" Serena whined.

"Yes hang on darling. . . there, it's on the screen."

"Darien. . .see it?" Serena asked sitting up on her elbows to watch Darien's face.

Darien looked at the black and white screen that showed the glob of outstretched slender tentacles that reached out quavering in the fluids around it. He stood glancing it over again and then let out a small shrill laugh.

"You have her intestines, that's funny now where is the real baby?"

"That's it." The nurse replied biting her lip.

"Nah that must be her. . . fallopian tubes then." Darien reasoned taking a double take of the black and white screen again.

"DARIEN! DO I HAVE TO SHOVE YOUR HEAD UP MY VAGINA IN ORDER FOR YOU TO UNDERSTAND!!!!" Serena wailed laying back down again.

"Yeah if it's the head I think you talking about, but we can talk about that later." Darien smiled face flushed because of the nurse's angered look.

"MAKE HIM UNDERSTAND!!" Serena cried pulling at the nurse's overcoat.

The nurse turned her sweet face to Darien and sighed, "Darien you girlfriend is carrying a tentacle monster baby in her stomach. If she removes it she will die, if she gives birth to it she will die."

Darien stood staring at her for a long moment taking in the horrible news with a blank look. He then shifted his weight and replied, "I think I understand but does that leave any options?"

"No, I am sorry but Serena will die." The Nurse confirmed bowing her head.

"Leave us please?" Darien asked as the Nurse nodded and left.

"Darien I know your depressed but. . ." Serena started as she sat up and covered her belly.

"No Serena! The only thing I am wondering is how the hell the fucking tentacle monster screwed you! Did you just spread you legs to him and say here you go I want to have your baby!"

"What do you think Darien, yes of course I am in love with the tentacle monster!" Serena screamed back sarcastically.

"Well that settles it!" Darien accused pointing a finger at her.

"Darien I was just kidding my God! I am going to die and this is how you are treating me! I guess you never did love me did you! Too busy screwing yourself in the butt with ROSES!"

"That's it! I am leaving; I told you if you ever spoke about the roses again I would leave! I told you the rose was a mistake, I. . .sat on it!"

"Right, last time your friend put it up there, besides you could never handle the fact that the tentacle monster was so much better than you were." Serena snapped as Darien whipped the door open.

"God at least I don't give you fucking octopuses!" Darien finished as he slammed the door behind him leaving Serena alone.

"At least. . ." Serena started but the tears had been held back too long and they came out in a flood down her cheeks. Now she was alone in the world and the one person who even remotely loved her was gone.
