Disclaimer: I don't own Sailor Moon, but I do own this story and people you
don't recognize.
AN: Sorry about the wait, I sprained my wrist and I just barely got out of my brace, so I can update again soon. Aren't we all happy? Anyway, thank you so much for reviewing. You guys make my day!! Okay, again, sorry. My computer would only open this file as a read-me. Again, I'm very sorry about the wait. Okay, to clarify, the Andy in chapter two is Andrew's father.

Sammy frowned on the way out. "Mo-o-om." It was a long drawn out wail. "What?" "Why did you say that?" Serena was utterly confused. "Say what?" "That you hoped he wouldn't call." "Because I don't want him to. He was giving my baby trouble." "Mom." This time it was exasperated. "What?" Serena was incredibly confused. "I deserved those bad grades.I skipped assignments and turned in the wrong papers." "Sammy, why would you do something like that?" He stopped and mumbled something under his breath.
"What was that?" Serena asked through clenched teeth. "Never mind, we'll continue this in the morning." She pushed him through the door and practically ran down the walkway to the car. When they got in, Serena only sat there, not turning the key. "Mom?" he asked. She didn't look at him; the muscles in her neck were taut. "Sammy, do you know how much it costs for me to send you to this school? Do you know how much I've sacrificed for you?" By this time she was crying. "Why would you do something like this?" He began crying as well. "I'm sorry, mom." She rested her face in her hands and sat there, sniffling.
When she finally sat up and wiped her eyes, there was a determined gleam in her eyes. "Mom?" he asked tentatively. She turned to him. "You're grounded for a month," she cut off his protests with a look, "you're grounded from the internet and your video games as well. I need to get to the arcade." She turned on the car and slowly left the parking lot. By the time she got to Babs' house the party was in full swing. Lita met her and Sammy at the door. "It's about time you got here. Babs' has been asking for you." Serena smiled and playfully pushed Sammy toward the kitchen. When he ran to play with his cousins she turned to Lita. "He was in detention. When we left he told me he was purposely getting bad grades and being bad to the teacher. He was playing matchmaker, trying to set me up with him." Lita covered her mouth to hide a laugh. "Are you serious?" Serena nodded.
Lita broke into full-blown laughter. "That's hilarious. The little scamp," she said with a soft look in her eyes, soon replaced by a sad one. "So what did the doctor say?" Serena asked. "She said no, to try again next year," Lita replied, wiping a tear. Ever since she and Andrew had married, they had been trying to have a baby with no luck. Finally they had started seeing a fertility specialist. It seemed that they had a one in seventy- five chance of Lita getting pregnant. Serena enveloped her in a hug, knowing that it was hard for her to see Serena and Sammy together, or Sammy with everyone else' children.
"Lita, just keep trying, you'll be a fabulous mother, I know you will." Lita returned the hug and wiped her tears. "Thank you so much Serena, you're the best." She smiled tremulously and then it grew as she saw Andrew heading over. "And, don't worry. I'll keep trying." Serena followed the direction of her gaze and put on a look of false surprise. "You lusty little thing you." When Andrew got there they were laughing, hard. "What's up?" he asked, putting his arm around his wife. Frowning, puzzled when they laughed harder. "I'll explain later, honey." Andrew only nodded, incredibly confused. "Gran is asking for you." She nodded and pushed her way through the crowd to Babs. "Serena's here!" There was wild cheering all around. "What's going on?" "Babs got up. It is the ten year anniversary of the day that you came into our lives." Serena's eyes filled with tears and her lips trembled as she remembered that fateful day, and the day before. Before the memories could take over she rushed to Babs and hugged her tightly. "Thank you so much," she whispered. "I love you, honey." Serena held her tightly as the tears rolled down her cheeks.
Sorry it's short, but I have a ton of homework and a job and a social life and my best friends' sister died, so now I'm involved in keeping her distracted and happy, or as happy as she can be. I'll update when I can. Remember, I'm writing this for all the people who put me on their favorites list and reviewed. You make this worthwhile for me!
