Chapter 1 (the meeting)
A boy sits quietly in a park bench on warm September day. He was lucky
enough to find a secluded bench shaded by several trees, so the sun was no
bother to him. The boy sat comfortably reading Fahrenheit 451 until he was
momentarily distracted by something strange tugging his pants. The boy set
his book aside and looked down to find a small black kitten clawing his
pants. The kitten soon turned its attention to he shoe laces. The boy
simple shrugged his shoulders and turned his attention to his book.
The boy tries to ignore the kitten joyously playing with he shoes but soon finds it extremely annoying. He doesn't want to kick the kitten away. He wasn't extremely heartless. He had some food but that would only draw the kitten in. He couldn't find a way to get rid of this bothersome kitten. Suddenly he is distracted by something more annoying then a kitten, a woman. "Oh my god!" the woman exclaimed her voice filled with over enthusiasm. "Your kitten is really adorable. What's its name? Is it a he or a she?"
"I wouldn't know" the boy plainly commented and brought the book back up and hoped if he looked busy enough she would go away. "It's not mine." She didn't leave she just picked up the kitten and turn it around to determine its sex.
"It's a girl. Awe. She's really adorable and so small. I could probably fit her in my pocket. She's like a kitten to go." The girl giggled and sat next to him. His plan didn't work. "So what's your name? Mine is Serena Brooks."
"..."
"Wow! You seem so mysterious." "Weren't you ever told not to talk to strangers?" He questioned her not taking this gaze from the book. This only intrigued her more.
"This cat needs a name. What should we name her?" She asked ignoring his question.
"What are you talking about? Do not involve me I have nothing to do with this."
"Oh yes you do. You found her. It's only proper that you give her a name."
"I didn't find her. The damn thing came up to me."
"Don't call her a 'damn thing.'" Serena turns her attention to that kitten, holding the kittens face close to her own. "Don't worry sweet heart daddy didn't mean that." The boy listening in finally took his attention away from the book. Serena was calling him that father of some cat that decided to play with his shoes.
"Daddy," he chocked out dropping his book. Serena just smiled happily.
"Well yes. A kitten needs a mother and a father and since we are all she has. You have to take that roll."
"I don't have to do anything." He protested thinking this Serena really had some nerve to make him the father of some cat. He finally concluded she must be mentally ill. "Are you on medication?" he asked as Serena takes a moment to think about her answer. The feels her fore head to determine whether she has a fever.
"No... Not at the moment but maybe I will take some aspirin later just in case."
"I didn't mean that kind of medication."
"There is another type."
"Of course there are hundreds of different types of medication. I was assuming that you had mental problems."
"Mental problems," Serena looks at him questioningly then spout a sweet smile. "No I don't think that my brain works improperly. Maybe I should go to a brain doctor and get an x-ray."
"You go and do that. Anyways, look I am way to busy at the moment to help you out. So you and your kitten friend can find another father." The boy lifted his book and continued read as if they had never been there.
"Of course we understand but we can't just go looking for another father." Serena stood up from the bench taking the boys book with her. He looked up at her quite shocked until he saw the expression she had on her face. She had a mix of determination and concern. Serena's sapphire eyes bore into him that they had a certain level of intimidation, but as he looked closer he could see hints of waters she was holding back. is she trying to hold back tears. He thought to himself gazing into her eyes. "You can't abandon her." She commanded but though her tone was harsh he could sense a bit of tenderness in it, pleading with him.
They boy couldn't escape from her eyes. Staring out her he let out a dejected sigh. "It is not my intent to abandon anybody."
"Good! Then we will wait until you are done with this book. After we can come up with and name. Oh, and visitation rights of course," Serena sat down next to him once again. She gave him back his book and merrily smiled down at the kitten. The boy regained his composure.
"What makes you think that this is the only thing that I have to do? I could be a very busy person."
"Well are you? It really doesn't matter we will wait patiently until you are done."
He let out another sigh. "Whatever do as you please." He was clearly annoyed but refused to continue the argument. He picked up his book and continued reading, but he is just glad the two are now silent. A while later he feels something plunge onto his shoulder. Frustrated, he turns his attention the shoulder and sees head there, sleeping. He then notices the kitten sleeping as well.I can't believe this girl falling to sleep on a strangers lap. What would happen if I turned out to be some rapist/murder? That would give me the perfect opportunity to take advantage of her. This girl is way too trusting of people, and it's ironic that the kitten is exactly like her. The boy sighs once again. Noticing that there are some strands of blonde hair on her face. He unconsciously slides her hair behind her ear.
He stares at her taking in how beautiful this girl really is. Her complexion is really actually quite perfect. Her hair is glossy letting out a sparkling glow in the sin. His fingers can run through her hair quite easily with detection of knots. He then took moment to admire her lips. He could feel a delicate yearning for them. He shifted his face closer to hers. She smelled sweet baring flavoured lip gloss. He was tempted to taste them and determine the flavour but drew himself back. He stared at her for a moment longer then broke himself from his stupor and continued reading his book.
Several hours passed and Serena was still sleeping on the boys shoulder. Unable to control himself he smiled down at her. He noticed that it was beginning to get darker and the street lights would be turning on soon. The boy nudged her softly feeling the urged to just let her continue sleeping, but quickly eased that thought. He nudged her again this time slightly harder. Serena stirred in her sleep then finally opened her eyes slowly. "Hey. It's starting to get late, maybe you should start getting home." Serena leapt up to this notion of her going home with out naming their kitten.
"Does this mean you are done? I am not leaving until we have agreed to a name. I assume you have finished all your duties."
"Nope," the boy said blatantly as he got up and began to walk away. Serena followed suit. "I know that you are going to insist on tagging along so I might as well just invite you. I am now going to the library." Serena stopped. He took note and stopped as well turning to her in confusion.
"A real library," she muttered under her breath.
"Yes. I have homework I need to do and that is the perfect place to get it done."
"Oh, Can I come too?" She stated in excitement running over to him.
"Didn't I just say you could?"
"Could do what?" she stares at him confused.
"Come with me!" the boy said thinking this girl is extremely forgetful.
"Oh and where are you going?"
"I just told you, the library."
"Oh I wanna go!" the boy grew tired of this conversation. He grabbed her hand and tugged her along.
"Just come along. I do not have that much time to spare." He says as the walk hand in hand. He takes her to the public library but as he's about to enter she stops forcing him to stop as well. The boy turns around to face her rather annoyed but quickly changes when he sees a tear sliding down her cheek. "What's wrong? Why are you crying?" He asks placing a hand on her shoulder in an effort to console her.
"I really want to enter with you, but I can't"
"What can't you?" he sooths her shoulder gentle hoping that it helps calm her down because he sees several more tears slide down her cheek.
"Because I have never been inside a library, my brother-in-law told me I need a card to enter. He promised to take me one day and get a card made especially for me but he has never had the time. So you see I can't get in, I'm sorry." Serena begins to whimper. She is so simple to think this way. She looks so cute. he thinks to himself as he listens to her explanation. He could bear watching her cry and rubbing her shoulder didn't seem to work as well. The boy enclosed her in his arms hoping this would work better. Not noticing that she had the kitten in her hand and that he was crushing her with his hug.
He hushed her with his soothing, "You don't need to cry. You don't need a card just to get in. You need a card to check out a book, but if you decide you want to take some books with you I will help you make a card." Serena looked up to him slightly shocked but then gave him a warm smile. The boy then noticed the kitten and parted from her. "Animals aren't allowed inside." He said casually pointing at the kitten. He saw he begin to panic and took that kitten from her in placed her in his book bag. He zipped it up leaving a small breathing hole.
"What happens if she needs to go to the bathroom?" Serena asked letting out a small smirk on her face.
"Take her out! I changed my mind."
"Wait! You can't change your mind you already offered."
"I can and I did."
"Look if she happens to leave behind a little treasure. I'll pay for a new book bag. Deal," she held out her hand for his to shake. He took her hand with a smug look on his face. Looks like I am getting a new bag today. What luck, he thought to himself as they entered the library. As they walk in Serena takes his hand again fearing she could lose him in such a big place he smiles at her as the walk to a table. They soon find and empty table to share. The boy quickly gets to work as he rummages though his book bag careful to disturb the kitten. Serena listens as several girls talk about them.
"Oh my god," one of the girls exclaim to the other. "He's in here with a girl."
"I know. I come here everyday just to try and see him, and I never see him with anybody none the less a girl."
"She must be his girlfriend."
"How lucky, because he's that hottest guy I've ever seen hands down and I have a boyfriend." The two girls giggle. Serena just ignores them and goes to the book shelves to find a book. The boy watches her as she leaves then reverts his attention back to his homework not noticing the two girls as they follow Serena.
Half an hour later the boy finishes his homework and notices that Serena still is not back. He decides to look for her because she might be lost. The boy makes his way through the isle frustrated by the fact that he has to look for her. His emotions suddenly change to panic when he hears someone crying. He runs in the direct that the stifling cries came from and sure enough he finds her kneeling on the floor weeping. He slowly walks next to her. She doesn't notice his presence until he's sitting besides her gathering her in to his arms. Serena willingly lets the boy console her as she relaxes in his arms.
He gentle tries to hush her with the sound of his voice and it worked perfectly because he weeping turned into a mild sob. He detached himself from her slightly trying to look at her face be she just kept her face down. The forced her to look at him by tilting her head up. Her lips were faintly trembling and her light blue eyes were frailer then he had ever seen them. His attention turned to her pink cheeks, a tear slid down from it. He felt captivated not noticing that his heart was pounding harder in his chest. With out thinking he caught her tear with his mouth sucking gently at the sweet taste of her tears. He separated his self and redirected another kiss this one on the corner of her lips. The boy slid his hand to the back of her head pulling her in. He redirected another one of his kisses this one place tenderly on top of her lips, he was being seduced by his own actions towards her.
He could no longer take it anymore he needed to taste her. He slowly slid his tongue through he delicate and willing lips. Closing his eyes drowning in the sweet sensation that ran through his body as he played with her tongue, she tasted sweeter then he had expected. He felt his body get extremely excited when her tongue pushed its way into his mouth and her fingers began to play with the back of his neck. They soon ended their kiss but didn't separate. They both smiled as their lips were still being pressed against each others. The boy gave her another light kiss then separated himself from her enough to look into her eyes.
"Why were you crying?" He asked using a more husky voice while playing with her silky hair.
"I don't know how to find a book." She stated showing him her sweet smile.
"That's it."
"Well no. You see I was looking for a book and then a realized I had no idea which book I should take as you see there are so many. I was about to ask you for help when these girls appeared. They started asking weird questions about me being your girlfriend. I clarified the fact that I wasn't your girlfriend that I didn't even know you name. They laughed and left me." Serena let out a short sigh and continued. "That's when I realized I was lost. I wandered around for a little while and then stopped here and just started thinking. I really don't know your name and on top of that I managed to get lost here in the library. I really don't know why but it made me cry."
They boy chuckled lightly at her story. This girl was extremely simple but it was that quality that made him like her more. He smiled and spoke to her still stroking her hair. "My name is Darien Kinsley. Do you feel better now?" She nodded her head vigorously and he kissed her again to get her to stop. Darien stood up taking her along with him. He glanced at the bookshelf and reached over and grabbed a book. He handed her one of his favourite books by Ray Bradbury called Dandelion Wine. Darien took her hand and showed her the way back to their seats.
The two girls noticed that they were hand locked and snorted in jealousy. Darien knew that these were the girls that left Serena lost in the library and decided to get them back by igniting their jealousy. As they take their seats. Darien glides his arm around Serena's waist and pulls her to him. Serena tensed up in surprise. Darien guided her hair behind her ear and whispered, "just go along with what I am about to do." Darien licked her temple seductively and she closed her eyes in response. He noticed that the mean girls were glaring daggers at his display. He chuckled to himself and continued kissing her along the side of her neck. He felt her shiver in pleasure. He soon forgot about the girls and began to enjoy himself as well tickling her sometimes with the movement of his tongue. When he made it all the way down to her collar bone her decided to change his approach and began to suck on one tender spot. He listened to her moan to the rhythm to his gentle kisses and he light sucking.
Darien finally drew him self away from her, and admired the violet mark that he left on her. He brought his fingers to it and brushed them against her skin. Serena lets out a small gasp to his touch. She had not known him long and he was able to make her feel so captivated and seduced. Darien kisses her jaw line and slowly moves to her lips. She kisses him in return hungrily completely forgetting their surroundings. Darien getting frustrated with the space between them pulls her to his seat not leaving and inch of space between them while she sits on his lap and were suddenly interrupted by a cough.
"Ahem. Excuse me but the library will be closing soon," said the librarian standing next to them impatiently with her hands to her hips. Serena giggles slightly as she gets off of Darien. Darien can't help but chuckle himself. Darien reverts his attention back to Serena.
"Are you going to check out that book?" He asks referring to Dandelion Wine.
"I already did it look interesting enough."
"I mean check it out of the library."
"I have to check out the library as well. That might take some time.
"No that's not what I mean. Oh just forget it and come with me."
"Okay." Serena willingly takes Darien's hand as he drags her to he front counter of the library. He help set her up with a library card and slowly explains what checking out a book meant. After they leave the library he decides to treat her to treat her to ice cream. Serena gets cookies and cream while Darien gets himself vanilla. Serena then begs him to get some warm milk for 'their' kitten. He reluctantly agrees. They all sit down on a bench and enjoy their snacks.
"So what should we name our kitten," Serena asks breaking their comfortable silence.
"I don't know name it what ever you want." "I can't just name her whatever I want. We should do it together. It should be a neutral decision."
"I will agree to whatever you decide therefore it is neutral."
"You act as if you want nothing to do with our kitten."
"I don't" Darien stated all too directly. Serena grabs the kitten and covers her ears and attempts to console it.
"Don't worry Kitty daddy didn't mean it." Serena hands the kitten to Darien. "Apologize!"
"Why do I have to touch it in order to apologize?"
"You are a mean father!" Serena now standing up shouted to Darien releasing her frustrations out on him.
"No one ever said I was mister nice guy."
"Please just apologize. I am sure our kitten will forgive you.
"Fine," Darien spat reluctantly turned is attention over to the kitten which had curled up comfortably on his lap. He unconsciously brought his hand and stroked the tiny kitten soft fur. Serena taken back by his tenderness watched wide eyed. "I am sorry." The moonlight shined off of her fur making her glow slightly. Serena suddenly came up with a name for their kitten.
"Luna."
"Pardon," Darien taking his attention off the kitten.
"Her name, we should name her Luna."
"Um... It's the moon white. This cat is clearly that opposite of white."
"But the moon it shines off of her and she glows. Look at her." Serena picked up the kitten and held it up in the light of the moon. "She glows like the moon, but we can't name her moon it sounds weird. I like the Spanish version." Darien let out a sigh.
"Is that what you really want as a name?"
"Yes."
"Than I will agree with your decision, she will be named Luna." Darien looked at his watch and got up from the bench. "Well it's getting late I better be heading off. I will walk you home."
"There is no need I could just call for my brother-in-law to come and pick me up. If you want he could drive you home," Serena smiling softly. All Darien could notice were the succulent masses that surrounded her white teeth. He wanted to taste those lips again but restrain himself. Darien leaned down and softly kissed her on the cheek.
"No need I live close by. Just a couple of blocks away from the library we went to. Do you want me to wait for you until your brother-in-law shows up?" Serena smiled happily and called her brother-in-law.
"Hey Chad could you come and pick me up I am at the park... Thanks, I love you too... Good-bye." With that she ended the conversation. Darien reached out and captured her hand in his own. Serena gasped out how warm and big his hand was. The smiled to each other and waited for her brother-in-law to arrive. When he finally did they reluctantly parted for each other with out a word. Darien watched as Luna and Serena rode out of his life together. Somewhere deep down in her heart he missed them. His chest shuddered at the thought of missing someone her hardly knew. He walked in the opposite direction, back towards his lonely apartment slightly relieved that he would never see her again. If he didn't see her and the kitten he wouldn't miss them, or so he thought.
The boy tries to ignore the kitten joyously playing with he shoes but soon finds it extremely annoying. He doesn't want to kick the kitten away. He wasn't extremely heartless. He had some food but that would only draw the kitten in. He couldn't find a way to get rid of this bothersome kitten. Suddenly he is distracted by something more annoying then a kitten, a woman.

"It's a girl. Awe. She's really adorable and so small. I could probably fit her in my pocket. She's like a kitten to go." The girl giggled and sat next to him. His plan didn't work. "So what's your name? Mine is Serena Brooks."

"I didn't find her. The damn thing came up to me."
"Don't call her a 'damn thing.'" Serena turns her attention to that kitten, holding the kittens face close to her own. "Don't worry sweet heart daddy didn't mean that." The boy listening in finally took his attention away from the book. Serena was calling him that father of some cat that decided to play with his shoes.
"Daddy," he chocked out dropping his book. Serena just smiled happily.
"Well yes. A kitten needs a mother and a father and since we are all she has. You have to take that roll."

He could no longer take it anymore he needed to taste her. He slowly slid his tongue through he delicate and willing lips. Closing his eyes drowning in the sweet sensation that ran through his body as he played with her tongue, she tasted sweeter then he had expected.

"Why were you crying?" He asked using a more husky voice while playing with her silky hair.

"That's it."
"Well no. You see I was looking for a book and then a realized I had no idea which book I should take as you see there are so many. I was about to ask you for help when these girls appeared.

Darien knew that these were the girls that left Serena lost in the library and decided to get them back by igniting their jealousy. As they take their seats. Darien glides his arm around Serena's waist and pulls her to him. Serena tensed up in surprise. Darien guided her hair behind her ear and whispered, "just go along with what I am about to do." Darien licked her temple seductively and she closed her eyes in response. He noticed that the mean girls were glaring daggers at his display. He chuckled to himself and continued kissing her along the side of her neck. He felt her shiver in pleasure. He soon forgot about the girls and began to enjoy himself as well tickling her sometimes with the movement of his tongue. When he made it all the way down to her collar bone her decided to change his approach and began to suck on one tender spot. He listened to her moan to the rhythm to his gentle kisses and he light sucking.
Darien finally drew him self away from her, and admired the violet mark that he left on her. He brought his fingers to it and brushed them against her skin. Serena lets out a small gasp to his touch. She had not known him long and he was able to make her feel so captivated and seduced. Darien kisses her jaw line and slowly moves to her lips. She kisses him in return hungrily completely forgetting their surroundings. Darien getting frustrated with the space between them pulls her to his seat not leaving and inch of space between them while she sits on his lap and were suddenly interrupted by a cough.
"Ahem. Excuse me but the library will be closing soon," said the librarian standing next to them impatiently with her hands to her hips. Serena giggles slightly as she gets off of Darien. Darien can't help but chuckle himself. Darien reverts his attention back to Serena.
"Are you going to check out that book?" He asks referring to Dandelion Wine.
"I already did it look interesting enough."
"I mean check it out of the library."
"I have to check out the library as well. That might take some time.
"No that's not what I mean. Oh just forget it and come with me."
"Okay." Serena willingly takes Darien's hand as he drags her to he front counter of the library. He help set her up with a library card and slowly explains what checking out a book meant. After they leave the library he decides to treat her to treat her to ice cream. Serena gets cookies and cream while Darien gets himself vanilla. Serena then begs him to get some warm milk for 'their' kitten. He reluctantly agrees. They all sit down on a bench and enjoy their snacks.
"So what should we name our kitten," Serena asks breaking their comfortable silence.
"I don't know name it what ever you want." "I can't just name her whatever I want. We should do it together. It should be a neutral decision."
"I will agree to whatever you decide therefore it is neutral."
"You act as if you want nothing to do with our kitten."
"I don't" Darien stated all too directly. Serena grabs the kitten and covers her ears and attempts to console it.
"Don't worry Kitty daddy didn't mean it." Serena hands the kitten to Darien. "Apologize!"
"Why do I have to touch it in order to apologize?"
"You are a mean father!" Serena now standing up shouted to Darien releasing her frustrations out on him.
"No one ever said I was mister nice guy."
"Please just apologize. I am sure our kitten will forgive you.
"Fine," Darien spat reluctantly turned is attention over to the kitten which had curled up comfortably on his lap. He unconsciously brought his hand and stroked the tiny kitten soft fur. Serena taken back by his tenderness watched wide eyed. "I am sorry." The moonlight shined off of her fur making her glow slightly. Serena suddenly came up with a name for their kitten.
"Luna."
"Pardon," Darien taking his attention off the kitten.
"Her name, we should name her Luna."
"Um... It's the moon white. This cat is clearly that opposite of white."
"But the moon it shines off of her and she glows. Look at her." Serena picked up the kitten and held it up in the light of the moon. "She glows like the moon, but we can't name her moon it sounds weird. I like the Spanish version." Darien let out a sigh.
"Is that what you really want as a name?"
"Yes."
"Than I will agree with your decision, she will be named Luna." Darien looked at his watch and got up from the bench. "Well it's getting late I better be heading off. I will walk you home."
"There is no need I could just call for my brother-in-law to come and pick me up. If you want he could drive you home," Serena smiling softly. All Darien could notice were the succulent masses that surrounded her white teeth. He wanted to taste those lips again but restrain himself. Darien leaned down and softly kissed her on the cheek.
"No need I live close by. Just a couple of blocks away from the library we went to. Do you want me to wait for you until your brother-in-law shows up?" Serena smiled happily and called her brother-in-law.
"Hey Chad could you come and pick me up I am at the park... Thanks, I love you too... Good-bye." With that she ended the conversation. Darien reached out and captured her hand in his own. Serena gasped out how warm and big his hand was. The smiled to each other and waited for her brother-in-law to arrive. When he finally did they reluctantly parted for each other with out a word. Darien watched as Luna and Serena rode out of his life together. Somewhere deep down in her heart he missed them. His chest shuddered at the thought of missing someone her hardly knew. He walked in the opposite direction, back towards his lonely apartment slightly relieved that he would never see her again. If he didn't see her and the kitten he wouldn't miss them, or so he thought.
