Decisions of the Heart
Chapter 3
Author:~Belle~
*She took out her right hand and pushed the door weakly. At the sound of the bells a raven-haired man turned around to look at the newcomer. What he saw made him shudder to the spine. And what Serena saw made her eyes water, for she truly had not expected it. Dark blue eyes locked with Light blue.*
Darien saw Serena come in and he cursed his luck for being at the Arcade at the same time Serena had decided to finally come out of hiding. But a part of him was overjoyed, he missed Serena so darn much! He had missed seeing her light blue eyes shine and her melodious voice giggle at anything even slightly amusing. Serena...... only God knew how much he wanted to hug her and kiss her until the end of time. Serena, the girl who had once been HIS Serena. Damn those dreams, damn those nightmares!!! If anyone knew how many times he had intended on trying to stay awake so that he wouldn't have to dream them. If anyone knew how much he had tried avoiding having to end his relationship with Serena. If anyone knew how much he has hurt while watching Serena die in his arms over and over again in his dreams. The dreams that filled him with terror and dread. Oh, if only SERENA knew....
In his dreams Darien was the happiest man on Earth. No one could have been luckier than him. He could clearly see Serena walking down an aisle looking more radiant than she had ever been. Serena wearing a white gown, simple yet elegant. Her face lit up at the sight of him and he could always count the seconds before she would extend her hand to reach his. He could still feel the warmth that would engulf him as soon as his skin made contact with hers. The way everything seized to exist and it was only her and him. He could still remember his thoughts as the priest said "'Till death do you part", 'Til Death and an eternity beyond that' he would whisper. He always remembered how Serena would utter her vows in her sweet, innocent way and say, " I do" and how everything in his world finally made since. Everything would come together, everything would finally be perfect. For he was with the woman he loved most in the world. He could still remember how nothing could come in between his happiness and then all of a sudden before he could utter the words, "I do," the ground would ripe open and take Serena with it. He still clearly heard Serena's terrible screams and hear her uttering her very last words, "Darien!" before she fell into the dark abyss. Oh yes Darien could remember it all. How could he forget? Even after he broke up with Serena, the dreams still persisted. He always helplessly watched as his life turned bitter and cold when his only love died. How once again the loneliness engulfed him. Oh yes, Darien would avoid "that" at all cost. No matter how much he loved her, he refused to watch her die. Watch her die because of HIM. He kept reminding himself that he didn't deserve her to begin with. She deserved so much better. She shouldn't cry for him, no one should.
Neither Serena nor Darien dared take their gaze off each other. Serena couldn't take it much longer. She could feel his eyes bore into her soul, the way it always did. She mentally reproached her heart for beating so fast. She thought that at any minute her heart would pop out for all to see. She pictured everyone seeing how broken up it was, how hollow it had become. She didn't want any pity from anyone, she didn't want anyone to feel concerned. And she helplessly watched as Darien finally registered the emptiness in her eyes. The bloodshot look they had. Serena had obviously cried for MANY nights. And she distinctly watched a hint of worry cross over his eyes soon to be replaced by coldness. She made a move to exit the arcade but a hand suddenly seized her wrist.
Mina had sat watching the encounter since the very beginning. She had sensed Serena's presence nearby. And the jingle of the bell finally proved her instinct right as she saw her princess walk into the arcade. Her eyes lit up in joy as she saw Raye walk in right behind her. Raye had accomplished, Operation 'Get Serena back' phase One! Mina was left slightly breathless as she felt the strong explosion of joy appear in the area of the arcade. She looked around to see who could be so happy that such aura radiated from them. It had to be someone near by because her powers as Princess of Love had not yet advanced enough to sense far away emotions. She desperately looked but all she saw was Darien, Serena, Andrew, and Raye. A devilish grin contorted her face, as she realized just where it had come from. 'So Darien, your happy to see Serena, eh? Well, your face doesn't show it. Hmm.. A little boy is being naughty and hiding his feelings.' She watched as Darien hopelessly tried to make his face seem cold and distant. She switched her gaze on Serena who obviously thought that the face was truly a display of his true feelings. She feebly watched as Serena made a turn to exit, and that was her cue! She sprang from her chair, in a wild leap of strength and was able to grab Serena by the wrist. 'Oh no Serena. Your not escaping from me!' she wondered. Two eyes stared intently into each other. One pleading with the other. And the battle of the stares continued.

Author's Notes: I'm sorry yall. I know that was not my *best* chapter but adding the characters is sort of harder than I thought and I'm rethinking my plan of adding all of them in different chapters. I might just do Lita and Amy in one chapter and get on with the support issue and move to some juicy stuff with Darien and Serena. I'd really appreciate it if you guys commented on what you think I should do. Do you guys want some detailed chapters on just one scout or is it ok if I get on with it and hurry to the romance??? COMMENT!!! To do that you must REVIEW!!! So hopefully I have enough reviews to know what to do for the next chappie. Expect it out in a week or two. ^_^ Sorry this was so short, my author's notes are longer than the STORY!
