It was early in the morning, while Darien sat at the table reading the newspaper and drinking coffee. He contently kept on reading, until he felt hands slide down his chest and around him. The side of his face came into contact with soft, golden hair. Darien turned to find Serena smiling down at him. He smiled back and took a sip of his coffee before he stood up and took her in his arms and kissed her. Serena giggled. He tasted like the rich coffee he had been drinking. "Good morning, daddy." She said as he smiled the brightest smile he had. Darien shook his head. "I'm not, yet." He said as he laid his hand on her stomach and felt the baby kick. Its kicks were getting stronger each day. "Well, you should be soon. I'm eight months pregnant you know. Any day now." She said, smiling. Darien took her in his arms and hugged her tightly. Once they pulled away, Darien still held her in his arms. "You know I love you. Both of you." He said with love. Serena sighed. "I know. And I have the feeling that...." She trailed off looking down at her swelled stomach. "The baby knows that too." Darien smiled before he kissed her lightly on the cheek and went upstairs to their bedroom and got dressed for work. He came down later, dressed in his police uniform, with his new chief of police badge that Serena had polished for him. Serena looked up sadly at him. He was fixing his shirt collar, when he looked over at Serena, looking sort of sad. "What's wrong Serena?" He asked as he stepped closer to her. Serena sighed and looked up at him with sad eyes. "I wish I could go to work with you. Please, just let me go this once, please?" She asked him with the same, sad, soulful, eyes. It was hard, but Darien found the ability to refuse her, just this once. He shook his head at her. "I'm sorry, Serena. I just can't take you down to the station with me. You're pregnant." He said. Serena nodded. "I know, but I can still try and be of SOME help to you." She said, pleadingly. Darien sighed. "Serena, how would you feel if you were on duty with me and you somehow lost the baby?" He said as she sighed as well. "That's what I thought. And believe me, after all these months of waiting, I wouldn't be too happy either. So stay here and rest like the doctor told you to." Serena pouted. "You know I never follow anyone's orders!" She said as she continued to pout. Darien chuckled. "Well, do it just this once. I should be home later tonight, so just stay here and wait for me." He said as he pulled her into his embrace and kissed her, lightly. Serena pulled back and sighed. "Okay. But you had better try to come home soon or I'll be mad!" She called to him as he headed for the door. He smiled at her before he left and closed the door. Serena had a sad look on her face. 'He didn't even remember it was my birthday today.' She thought to herself as she went to the living room and sat down on the sofa and turned on the T.V. She missed Darien when he would go on to work without her, but she knew that she had to stay home and take care of herself and the baby. 'I know he knows that it's my birthday, but why hasn't he said anything?' The doorbell interrupted Serena's thoughts. She quickly got up and walked to the door. Serena was surprised to see Sayia and Raye standing there. They both said happy birthday to her when she opened the door. They also gave her one present and one card. Serena took the gift from Raye and the card from Sayia. They went in and sat down in the living room. Serena got some very nice candles that made you relax when you smelled them. "Oh thank you Raye! I'll be sure to use this after I get back to going out on the streets again." She said as she hugged Raye. Serena finally got to her last and final gift, Sayia's card. "So where is my present?" Serena asked, smirking. Sayia shrugged. "Sorry I couldn't get you more. You women are just too damn hard to buy for!" He said chuckling, while Raye slapped his arm. "Hey it's true!" Sayia said, pouting while rubbing his abused arm. "You see how abusive she is with me, Serena? Compared to her car, she treats it better than me!" Serena giggled while Raye hit him some more. "I do not! You know I treat YOU better than my car. Wanna know why? It broke down last week remember? So I haven't been taking care of it, how do you like that?" She said while smirking at him. Sayia still pouted. "Yeah, and I bet I'm next." He said while he got up out of his seat and moved away from Raye so she could no longer 'abuse' him. Serena laughed as she opened her card. Something fell out of it and she picked it up. It was a 100-dollar worth certificate to any store at the mall. Serena squealed with delight and hugged Sayia. "Oh thank you, Sayia! I'll really need this once I loose my baby weight." She said as she got up and stored it away in a safe place. Raye stood up and walked over to Serena. "We also have one more surprise for you." Raye said as she and Sayia lead her out the door to Sayia's mustang. They took Serena to a very expensive restaurant for lunch. Serena loved it. They laughed and joked and while Sayia got up to go to the bathroom, Serena and Raye talked about both of their husbands and giggled. After they had lunch, they were taking Serena back to her house. "Could you guys turn around and take me to the police station?" Serena asked suddenly. Raye looked up. "Why? I thought you weren't allowed to go back to work until the baby was born." Serena nodded her head. "Yes, I know, but I just want to visit Darien. I miss him when he goes off and leaves me at home during the day. And at night, he's usually too tired to talk to me, but he always tries to." Serena said as she sighed and looked out the car window. Raye noticed how sad she looked and made him turn around and take Serena to the station. She easily got in without anybody noticing her. She quietly slipped into Darien's office and shut the door. Luckily he had his back to her in his chair. He was going over some paperwork, when she slipped herself into his lap and kissed him. "Hello, Chief Shields." She said smiling at him. Darien seemed a little stunned at first. "Serena, how in the...." He was cut off by a finger on his lips. "Ask me later. Right now, I just want to be in your arms, Darien. I miss you while you're here and I'm not." She said kissing his forehead and his cheeks. Darien smiled and hugged her while she snuggled closer to him. "Happy birthday, Serena." He said as he kissed her passionately. Serena looked up at him, after the kiss. "You remembered! But why did you wait so long to...." She trailed off as he pulled out a slim black box with a white ribbon tied around it. Serena slowly took it. "I knew you were going to pull a stunt like this, so I just brought your present here and waited to tell you happy birthday here." He said, smiling. Serena smiled back and opened the box to reveal a pure white diamond necklace. Serena's eyes filled with tears. "Oh Darien, it's wonderful. I love it. I love you. Thank you!" She said as she hugged him tightly. He chuckled and hugged her back. "I love you too. I'll tell you what, I'm going to be leaving in a while, so why don't you go home and wait for me?" He said smiling one last time as he kissed her and sent her out the door, happy as could be. She walked out of the station to Sayia's car and they drove her back home.
When Serena entered her house, she was extremely happy. She had good and loyal friends. She had a wonderful husband and life. The only thing in life she wanted now, was to have her child be born soon. She happily stepped into the living room. But she wasn't happy at the sight she saw when she got there. Serena saw Diamond sitting on the sofa, in the dim light, looking evilly at her. Serena back away from the room as he started to step towards her. "Hello, Serena. We meet again." Said his evil voice.
