Well, here is the chapter everyone has been waiting for! I'm sorry this had

put two chapters up at once and beg you all to forgive me. Forgive me?

Darien carried Serena out back behind the arcade, and put her down. She knew he was going to yell at her, but she wanted to hear what he had to say.
"What the hell do you think you're doing?" he screamed.
"I'm sorry Darien, I thought that was clear. Since you no longer love me, I thought you would be grateful. You said we were over. That there was no chance. Ever." Her voice was calm, but on the inside her emotions were turbulent. She looked as though she wanted to cry, but didn't as not to give him the satisfaction.
Darien started pacing back and forth in from of her. As far as Serena could tell he was mumbling something about never sleeping again.
"I'm sorry you're angry Darien, I thought this is what you wanted." Somewhere in the back of his brain, Darien was surprised at her control over her emotions, she sure was doing a hell of a lot better then he was.
"WHAT I WANTED!?" he bellowed "What in God's name is the matter with you?"
"What's the matter with me?" Now she was furious, and couldn't hide it. "Darien for God's sake make up you mind! You are driving me insane! One day we're perfect. The next you hate me and never want to see me? Now you're angry because I suggest something you implied would make you happy! What do you WANT?!"
"What you take from my action is your own doing not mine." He spat back ignoring her question. "And how can you so easily throw away what we have?"
She stared at him in disbelief, and didn't talk for several moments. When she finally did, her voice was eerily calm. "How can I throw it away?" She lowered her voice to a whisper "Darien, you are absolutely killing me. I'm dying, Can't you see?" she sank to her knees with grief.
"Serena" he said crouching down beside her "I never wanted to hurt you." He said gently.
"That doesn't matter. You already have. Darien, you can't have your cake and eat it too. If you don't love me or don't want to be with me let me go. I love you, but I can't spend my life waiting while you do whatever it is you're doing. Right now I'm dying. If you don't want me, please let me go."
"I can't" he choked. "I'm too selfish. I don't want anyone to have you if I can't..."
"But you CAN have me." she said exasperated. "I'm right here, right now."
"My dreams ... " he said "They told me you'd die. If we were together, they said you would die. I wanted to protect you." His eyes had a haunted looked.
Immediately she stood up. "Dreams." He meekly nodded. "You IDIOT!" she screeched, sounding like her old self, but angrier. "DREAMS!? Stupid lousy dreams! I'm going to KILL you! You broke my heart!" Her first were pounding on his chest, it hurt, but he let her continue. AT that moment, she hated him more then she ever had. Eventually the punches subsided into sobs. "You broke my heart. I hate you. I HATE you." By then the tears were flowing freely down both their faces. He hugged her to his body, as they both cried and he told her he loved her.
"Never again." He promised. "Never ever again."
"Darien, I love you, but you telling me this doesn't fix everything, things can't go back to the way they were. Not at first at least."
"I know," he told her. "I know."
They walked back into the arcade together, both looking a bit lighter then they had before. Amy looked up and smiled when they came in. "This is very good news." She informed them. "Because the bond is primarily based on love, you two being back together will greatly strengthen it. I'm still not 100% sure exactly how we can get it back together...." and she started mumbling to herself and working on her computer.
After a few moments Serena and Darien got up again. "We still have a lot of stuff to talk about and work out. Ca we catch up with you guys later?" Serena asked.
Amy, not even looking up just waved her hand in a dismissing fashion. The other two actually looked up and said goodbye.
Amy kept working for a few moments, when suddenly she looked up startling the others. "I've got it!"
******************************************
I'm sorry to leave you guys like this but I'm typing up the next chapter up right now. I'm sorry if Serena and Darien (especially Darien) seem a little out of character, but remember that they've been under a great deal of stress lately and that would change how they act. Please review and I'll love you forever!!!
