4 Serena cheerfully knocked on Darien's apartment door, it seemed to be open so she cautiously let herself in, she placed an innocent smile on her face. She had been looking forward to an outing they had planned a few weeks before and started to greet him.
5 "Hi Darien! are you ready for our –" She stopped in mid flow as she realised that he wasn't there. It was unlike him to go out and leave the door wide open. Serena reached a state of panic as she went over the possibilities in her head. A burglar might have broken in! Or maybe he was in a hurry to go out for something, either way Serena decided to look for him and she carefully shut the door behind her.
She ran down the street, not concentrating on where she was going properly and she collided with Mina who was taking a short walk in the softly setting sun. Serena blurted out her situation as best she could but Mina looked rather blank, it took her ten minutes until Mina understood and she didn't prove to be much help
"Sorry Serena, I haven't seen him," She explained. Serena mumbled an ungrateful thanks and continued her frantic search,
She finally gave up after two hours and decided to watch the sunset by herself near the outskirts of Tokyo. The soft colours that surrounded the sky were no comfort to her, she felt incomplete and insecure without Darien beside her and she buried her face deep inside her hands and let out a few whimpers that gradually grew into large and noisy tears.

Serena reluctantly emerged from under her duvet; she still remembered the events of the day before and sleeping on it hadn't made it any better as she had rather hoped. She got dressed and went in to town, she dare not check in on Darien's apartment again and wondered around aimlessly until she became aware that it wasn't doing any good.
She returned home and found Rini grinning mischievously at the top of the stairs.
"Darien called while you were out!" She shouted happily and quickly disappeared from sight. Serena's heart gave an enormous jump and she hurried up the stairs as fast as she could. She grabbed the phone excitedly and dialled Darien's number.
"Hello?" came a familiar voice from the other end of the line.
"Hi Darien, It's Serena. Rini said you called while I was out." Serena answered
"Oh yeah, I'm sorry about yesterday but I got a late shift at work and I couldn't tell you in time." He explained
"Mina said you got really worried, I'm really sorry Serena!" He continued
"It's ok," Serena, replied "Why don't we watch the sunset tonight by the outskirts instead?" She suggested
"It's a date!" Darien confirmed
Serena put the phone down and gave a squeal of delight, he hadn't forgotten after all!
* * *
Serena watched the golden sun go down leaving it's usual trail of amazing colours that lit up the sky, she lay beside Darien and felt complete at last. She looked up at him and gave a joyful sigh, knowing that she would be safe.
