Chapter 8 the meal

The family and Darien were seated at an expensively varnished cherry wood table. Ken sat at the head of the

table with Irene at the opposing end. Serena and Darien sat next to each other on the right side of the table

with Sammy on the other side. The food looked delicious, Irene had prepared mashed taters, steak, shrimp,

green beans, rice, and koolaid. The meal had been occupied with an uncomfortable silence until Ken decided

that it was about time to get some answers out of Darien. "so Darien" Ken said "how old are u?" Darien was

surprised at the start in conversation but said "I'm 18 sir" Ken looked him over and continued his questions

"and what are u planning on doing in life?" "I'm pre-med right now sir" Darien replied nonchalantly. Ken's

interest seemed to shift to more personal things "how did u meet my daughter?" Darien looked at him like a

deer caught in headlights but answered "were both mutual friends of Andrew" Ken looked at him

suspiciously and inquired "earlier you said you and my daughter were close now I'd like to know exactly how

close is close?" Darien slowly put down his glass of water and looked at Ken and you could see the

thoughts running through his mind "Umm hold that thought please I'd like to try my steak I think its getting

cold" Darien requested, Ken looked at him oddly but slowly nodded his head a mischievous grin appeared

on his face as he took about 3/4 of his steak and popped it in his mouth. Sammy looked at Darien

incredulously and said "cool" Ken's mouth hung open and Irene was trying to suppress the smile that was a

mile wide on her lips. Darien turned around and saw the smirk on Serena's face and thought 'damn I'm never

gonna hear the end to this one sigh'. The family slowly recovered from the incident and started a light

conversation while Darien tried incredibly hard to chew the incredibly large piece of meat that filled his

mouth. Every so often Ken would stare glance at Darien but stopped after a while when he realized that the

young man would not be finishing the meat anytime soon. The family stayed like that for quite some time

until Darien finally finished his meat at which time everyone had already finished eating. Darien decided that

after going through that to avoid questioning the best thing to do would be to leave before Ken started a

new interrogation. "Excuse me everyone I'd love to stay but I promised my neighbor Mrs. Verhines that I

would help her move some new furniture in today and the delivery truck will arrive in about 15 minutes so I

must take my leave, thank you for the wonderful meal Mrs. Tsukino, bye everyone see, ya around meatball

head" he said giving her a longing look "I could have sworn I told you not to call me that." Serena said and

smiled at him. Darien walked out the door and the silence was broken by a certain young boy calling out

"Meatball head!! that's a good one" Sammy doubled over on the floor laughing but stopped when he

noticed his sister coming after him, he ran upstairs with his sister hot on his tail. Serena cornered Sammy in

his bedroom "Gee sis you didn't seem to mind it nearly as much when he called you that" Sammy said "is it

because he makes out with you on the couch and I don't?" Serena stopped dead in her tracks and stared at

him. Sammy smirked "the window was open I saw you you're lucky dad didn't see you, he would've had a

heart attach, then he would've grounded u for life and killed Darien" Sammy said a little two happily. Serena

sat down on his bed and then after like ten seconds she sighed and said "ok, what do u want?" Sammy

looked at her and smiled "I need ten bucks" he said Serena looked at him quizzically "that's it?" Sammy sat

down next to her and said "ya, look im not stupid I kno I could get way more outa you for this but I just don't

really wanna take advantage of your situation." Serena just stared at him for a while amazed at what he had

just said then it hit her "Sammy you're dating Rika aren't you?" she said, Sammy looked at her sheepishly

"ya" Sammy stared at his sister "Rena?" he asked shyly "ya?" she said "I was wondering how long have u

been dating him?" he asked while looking at his shoes "a couple of days, why?" she replied. Sammy looked

at his shoes some more before looking at her "well I wouldn't think you would..... I mean the way you were

on the couch well I didn think that would happen after a couple of days." Serena covered her face "shit" she

swore underneath her breath she looked at her little brother concerned hoping she hadnt scarred him for life

"Sammy how much did you see exactly?" she questioned worriedly. Sammy looked back at his shoes again

"I saw him kissing you and then I saw his hand go under your shirt." he said looking at the floor. "shit" she

swore again "look Sammy your right its not normally like this it's just different with him, I mean before like

last week I thought I hated him, I'm in love with him and I got a little carried away. it's weird cuz .....sigh.....

don't tell dad but the girls and Andy stuck us in a room together for a while and that's when it started our

true feelings came out but we never went as far as that even though we were living together, I really don't

know it happened like this here but im not sorry it did im sorry you had to see it though. I'm not embarrassed

about it and you shouldn't be so look at me." Serena said trying to reassure him Sammy looked at her and

smiled weakly. Serena smiled at her brother "I'll go get that 10." she said. She got up and waked to her room

to get the money.

The next Day

Darien's apartment Knock Knock. Darien walked to the door in his pajama bottoms. When he opened it he

saw Serena waiting in s blue miniskirt and a white long-sleeved dress shirt. Serena didn't say anything to him

she just stared at his chest and then ran a finger down it before stepping inside and closing the door behind

her. Serena hugged him while running her hand over his chest again. She licked his neck sucked at it then

kissed it. Darien was still shocked but he wasn't about to start complaining anytime soon so he just let her

continue while thanking his lucky stars. Serena bit his neck and then stopped suddenly to whisper into his

ear huskily "looks like you have a 'nice' couch too but this time when were done I promise you wont be

forced to eat any large masses of meat." Serena started laughing uncontrollably. Darien looked at her and

groaned "I knew this was too good to be true." he said. Serena slapped him on the arm "Ow, what was that

for?" he cried. "that was for influencing my little brother he's been calling me meatball head" she said in a low

scary voice, Darien smiled down at her "it's can't be that bad, everyone else does it." he claimed which

earned him another slap. "seriously" she said "I am worried about him and it IS all your fault." "What are you

talking about?" he asked totally confused "he saw us on the couch and now he will hardly look at me." she

stated burying herself into his chest "He'll get over it just give him some time to get used to the fact that ur

not the same person you were when you were 12 years old and Meatball it takes two to tango." Darien

reassured her. Serena smiled up at him and then slapped him again and the gave him a short deep kiss and

pulled back. Darien looked disappointedly at her and tried to pull her in for another kiss. She refused "I can

hear your stomach rumbling im gonna make you some breakfast." she said sounding a lot like her mother.

Serena stepped backwards trying to escape his grip but he pulled her closer to him and pushed away the

color of her shirt to expose her neck and bent down to kiss it. "mmmm sure you dont want anything to eat?"

Serena breathed out. "I'm having it right now" he mumbled while nibbling at her neck. Darien pulled her

down onto his couch with him and crushed his lips to hers. He bit her lip and when she opened her mouth in

shock he stuck his tounge roughly into her mouth. She kissed him back with just as much passion and

caressed the intruding tongue with hers and used her hands to try to pull his head in and put more pressure

in the kiss. the two separated gasping. "all right Darien enough of this we have places to be" Serena forced

out through gulps of air. "ummm where are we going?" Darien asked, "that's not important, go take a shower

and we'll leave" Serena said while getting up "Don't I at least get to eat first?" Darien cried out. Serena gave

him a deathly glare and growled at him. "Fine lets go make somthin" she growled out.

While in the kitchen Darien got a little play full and squirted water at Serena with the hose on the faucet. A

little fight for the hose began and in the end both were soaked. After the fight both people laughed and

continued what they were doing. After a while Serena noticed Darien's stares and looked down at herself and

realised that her formerly white shirt was not only sticking to her body but it was also totally translucent.

"you asshole! you did this on purpose" she exclaimed. Darien smirked at her "and damn proud of it too" he

answered smugly before he grabbed her again and bent down to lift her shirt and kiss her stomach. Serena

stood and let him continue his trail of kisses which slowly began to climb up her body as he slowly

unbuttoned her shirt. A thought finally came to Serena and she bopped him on the head "I just told you we

were going somewhere now what am i supposed to wear?" she screamed at him. Darien looked sheepishly at

her and then said "well me an Sndrew used to live together and when we did Rita left um a shirt here and its

still here u can wear that." Serena looked at him and said "fine go get it." Darien got up and went to his

bedroom to get the shirt. He came back and handed Serena a white shirt. She took the shirt and shook it out

and then her mouth formed an o before she regained her composure "Do I LOOK like the type to wear

hooters shirts?!!" Serena yelled at him "well you are very well endowed in that area" he said trying defend

himself. Serena stared at him for a while before picking up the newsplaper off of the table and smacking him

in the head with it. Serena sighed in defeat and took off her shirt to put on the hooters T-shirt. Darien stared

at her drooling and unconciously started to drift toward her with eyes of a predator "don't even think about

it" she said before pulling the hooters shirt over her head and shoving him off to the bathroom. "wanna

come in with me?" he asked coyly. "I might've considered that if I wasn't wearing a hooters shirt." she said

darkly.
