Chapter 7

Earlier that night:

After Mr. and Mrs. Moore left the living room earlier to go to bed the lay on the bed for a while awake, thinking about the situation going on in their house. "You know I can feel love in the air."

"Of course you can feel my love in the air honey, I love you with all my heart."

"I know you do, but I was talking about he two in the living room."

"You mean Darien and Serena? There is like four years between those two."

"So? You are five years older than me."

"That's different. How would Serena's father react if he knew his daughter feel in love with an older man?"

"Well even though we never meet him before I will have to guess nearly the same as my father did."

"You mean threaten to kill me if I ever came near you? Yeah I doubt it can be much worse then that."

"It could."

"How?"

"I don't know. But it could." Mrs. Moore said.

"Honey I know that you can see those two in love with each other but what about that truce thing they were talking about earlier?"

"Maybe one of them finally realized how they felt about the other. So then offered a peace treaty because the couldn't stand treating the other the way they have been."

"Honey you are so smart, no wonder I love you with my entire soul."

"I know you do, and I love you too."

(A/N hey thought you might like to know what is going through their minds. So I let you know through a conversation they had.)

Next Morning:

Darien woke up yawning and stretching. Sleeping on a couch wasn't one of the best things to do to get a good night sleep but he couldn't complain. He couldn't really fine a good reason to complain at all. All thoughts of not having a good night sleep fled his mind when he looked over at the other couch. Still sleeping there was a blond haired girl, which he still couldn't decide if she was more a goddess or a princess. In his mind though he thought she was both and no matter what would remain both.

Even this early in the morning her beauty surpassed everything around her. In her sleeping state he wanted to walk over there and kiss her, but didn't for he didn't want her to hate him anymore then she already did.

Darin glanced out the window and saw that the blizzard continued. He knew that this was bad but deep down he was happy. Happy that because of this blizzard he would be able to be with Serena. Looking over at Serena again he saw her holding the blanket that he placed on top of her last night. To him and his hopeful thinking it looked like she would never give up that blanket for anything else in the world.

'I've really got to stop thinking about Serena. I have a princess that needs me and I must discover who she is and save her from any harm. I can't have any distractions it will only slow me down.'

Getting up Darien choose a pair of blue jeans and a black sweater from a pile that Mr. Moore gave him to choose from. Darien walked to the bathroom and did what he needed to do. When done Darien returned to the living room dressed and to find Serena sitting on her couch. "Good morning."

"Morning Darien." Serena mumbled showing that she was still half asleep. They sat in silence for a while till Mrs. Moore walked in.

"Well good morning you two. Did you sleep well?"

Darien nodded even though he really hadn't. Serena mumbled, "Yeah though I could do with another two or three hours of sleep."

"I think that we all can."

Serena was now wide-awake. Had Darien really just agreed with her? "How come you agreeing with me?"

"Well I had a dream which kept me from going into deep sleep. And I prefer deep sleep over the other."

"Yeah you know that everyone does don't you Darien. I thought that you where smarter then me."

"Hey give me a break it's early okay?" Darien said trying to defend himself.

"Yeah I know, remember I'm not a morning person!"

"Serena calm down okay? Remember our little truce."

"It is not OUR truce it is YOURS!"

"Please Serena calm down. I made this truce up for both of us, I thought that you would like it if I stopped calling you meatball head."

Serena stood looking at him for a moment before storming out of the room. Darien looked at Mrs. Moore and asked, "What did I do or say?"

"It's nothing Darien I think she is a little upset-"

"Yeah I know she is upset with me. But-"

"She's not upset with you I don't think or not totally. Look outside, it's still snowing and she probably worried that her parent might go out and search for her in this weather. You know that can lead to someone getting hurt."

"Oh," Darien said. Looking at the weather he wanted it to stop. Even if it meant he wouldn't be able to see Serena, her being happy was all that mattered to him.
