Chapter 2: Torture
Later after the party, everyone had left, leaving Darien, Serena and Elizabeth alone in their apartment. The new parents sat on their couching, looking at their sleeping daughter.
"She's beautiful. "whispered Serena.
"Just like you." Replied Darien, looking deeply into her dark cerulean eyes. So innocent and sweet. They soon fell asleep on the couch, too tired to move from their exhausting day.
"WAAAAAAHHHHHH!" cried Elizabeth. It was three in the morning and apparently, Elizabeth was hungry. Darien moaned at the screaming of his daughter. He didn't want to wake Serena, so he got up from the couch and picked up his screaming daughter.
He went to the kitchen, and heated up a bottle of milk. He fed it to Elizabeth. He forgot to check the temperature, and it was too hot. Elizabeth screamed louder. 'How do I get her to shut up? Only Serena would know'.... He suddenly realized that he forgot to check the temperature by placing a drop on his wrist and feel if it were too hot or too cold.(I had to do it with my little brother.) In this case it was hot. TOO hot and he decided to place it in the freezer and cool it off for about five minutes. Bad idea. When he went to go get it, it had become frozen. He placed it in the microwave (with Elizabeth still screaming () and thank god, it thawed. It was too hot-again.

What's that noise? 'Why is Elizabeth crying? She must be hungry'... Serena thought as she heard the screaming from the kitchen. She walked over to the kitchen, finding Darien trying to thaw a frozen bottle of milk. She couldn't help but laugh. Darien turned around, only to find his laughing wife at the doorway. "If you thinks it's so easy, then you try it." He teased.
"Ok." She replied calmly as she made a new bottle of milk and placing the frozen one in hot water. "It won't thaw that easily in the microwave." She took the new formula and fed it to her daughter. "See?" she said in a childish manner. Darien was awestruck. 'How did she...But...I give up' "Fine. I give up. You are the master." He said as he bowed down to Serena who was giggling.
Later in the afternoon, Raye called and asked if the two parents needed any baby help. "Hello?" she asked. "Help! She will never stop crying." Replied Darien. Elizabeth wasn't the cute little angel she looked like. She never stopped crying.
"Ok. I'll be over in a couple of minutes. Is it ok if I bring Chad?"
"Sure. Bye." Soon, Darien heard the doorbell ring. Must be Raye and Chad. He thought to himself. He opened the door and welcomed the two friends in (they're not a couple in this fic).
"Hi. Serena's out buying some stuff. She'll be back soon." He said. He looked like he hadn't slept for days. Then Elizabeth started crying again.
"I'll get her. You should rest." Said Raye, as she walked with Chad into the nursery. After about five minutes, Serena walked into their quiet (finally!) apartment. Hi, sweetheart." She said as she kissed Darien on the forehead.
"It's been quiet for about an hour. World record." He replied smiling. He had a feeling he was in for a long ride.
AN: See? I told you it would be longer. How is it? Good? Bad? R&R. Ch 3 will be up soon...
