I don't own SM! Or scenes from gone with the wind or the dresses! Or the dresses descriptions!

Serena lazily opened her eyes, but Darien was no where to be found. She slightly pouted then looked around. The drapes were open the sun streamed in the room. She smiled to herself at last nights events. Darien and her hadn't been together in awhile, the last time must have been before they left to stay at Mina's aunt. There was a knock at the door, Serena sat up and straightened out,

"Come in." she said, it was Darien,

"Serena, my pet, those vandals from last night are safely in jail." he said, he didn't seem to choose his words slowly, or wisely. Suddenly her happiness faded away, her smile washed off her face slowly

"You mean to tell me that you didn't kill them?!" she yelled, she couldn't control her anger

"Don't be so selfish Serena, they're safely locked away, where they can't hurt you." he said

"You promised you'd protect me!" she screamed, her tears started falling down quickly, he sighed and rolled his eyes, he walked over to her and sat beside her, he lifted her chin, he did it gently but at the same time forceful,

"And I will Serena. You don't believe me?" he asked, his eyebrow arched

"I can't believe you didn't kill them when you had the chance." she said annoyed, her anger slightly decreased, he took her hand out form under her chin, his fierce gaze on her broke

"And I can't believe you would be stupid enough to go out that late, so far from home." he said as he laughed bitterly,

"Maybe if I wasn't accused of having marital relations with another man!" she yelled

"I never accused you of anything!" he yelled

"You certainly implied it." she spat out bitterly,

"Well what if I did? Do you mean to tell me you've never thought of having an affair with Mr. Wilkes? That is if he'd even take you. Do you mean to tell me you didn't pine for him when he was but rooms away from you?" he questioned angrily; she remained quiet, but made the mistake of looking up at him but once. His eyes were intense; he looked as if he was mad. He was red in the face and his eyes became stormier then they already were.

"Get out of my room." she said quietly,

"It's my room to, may I remind you." he said, he was calmer,

"Fine, then I'll get out." she said as she started to walk away, he grabbed her, his hands burned into her wrist.

"Let go of me!" she demanded, but he only pulled her closer, he held her so tight, she couldn't move, all she could do was look at him, until she couldn't take it anymore, she looked down,

"God dam it Serena, look at me!" he demanded, she recognized this tone, he meant business, she slowly looked up, he was so angry she wasn't sure what to do, his eyes studied her, those eyes probed her, got into her mind,  how could these eyes be the same as the sweet ones that resembled a young boy? What was he going to do to her?

"Don't you ever, I mean never give that man a gift from my money." he said venomously, he threw her onto the bed then left. Serena felt very vulnerable, how could this man change so much in an instance? Last night he was so gentle and rough at the same time but he was sweet and treated her like porcelain. Then today like he wanted to break her, she crawled under her covers and stayed there for the rest of the day. Telling everyone she wasn't feeling well.
