The Taylor's

Chapter 8

Serena and Darien walked out of her room and right into Samantha; who stood there puzzled to see her sister and Darien together. Samantha turned to Darien asking "so I guess you found the bathroom". Darien was about to make up some excuse of why he was coming out of Serena's bedroom and not the bathroom when Serena quickly turned to Sam making one up for him as she told her sister "Darien got a little lost and ended up in my room instead".

Samantha looked at her sister not sure if she should take her story or not but then why would Darien want to see Serena, so it must have been true as she turned to Darien with a smile asking him "oh okay well anyway Darien I came upstairs to ask you if you want to stay for dinner".

Darien turned white at hearing this trying to find the quickest excuse out of this so he wouldn't have to spend another minute with Sam. He told her "sorry Sam I can't stay I have other plans".

Samantha couldn't believe what she was hearing other plans did these other plans involve another girl she had to find away to get him to stay. Maybe he was still mad at her for the fight with Serena maybe if she played the caring sister he'd forgive her and she could possibly get some brownie points on top of it for doing the right thing and all that. So she turned to Serena with her most sincere face as she told her "Serena I'm sorry for that fight at school it was wrong of me to say such means things to you and I do apologize you're my sister and I love you".

Serena's jaw almost dropped to the floor at hearing this she couldn't believe what she was just hearing Samantha Taylor actually apologizing this was a first, Darien really must have gotten to her. Serena turned to her sister with a smile saying back "you're right Sam and I'm sorry too I don't like it when we fight either apology excepted".

Darien stood there watching the two sisters both apologize to each other as he wondered if either one of them really meant any word they said to each other, maybe he should stick around to find out just in case. Darien looked at both girls and smiled telling Sam "you know what Sam maybe I will stay for dinner tonight my plans aren't that important".

Samantha looked up to Darien with a big smile as she told him "great I'll set an extra place for you" as she thought score 2 for Samantha prom queen here I come.

At dinner

They all sat as Rose Taylor took a big bowl of pasta and put it on the table as everyone helped themselves. Rose turned to Darien trying to make small talk saying "well Darien Samantha tells me your captain of the high school football team".

Darien looked up smiling at her as he told her "yes that's correct but there's a lot of great other players on the team also".

Rose smiled at him saying "I'm sure there is but I bet they don't have your charming good looks and personality. Samantha says you're a shew in for prom king and some lucky girl will get to be your date huh and possibly prom queen?"

Darien looked embarrassed as Rose continued on about the whole prom thing as he turned telling her "I really don't know who will be prom king if I am that would be great and as for the girl I take when I find the right one I'll know".

Rose turned to Samantha with a smile as she told Darien "I'm sure you will".

When Serena jumped into the conversation "and I'm sure Samantha forgot to tell you how Darien the class president, has the highest GPA in his class".

Samantha quickly gave Serena a dirty look then looked over to Darien with a smile telling him "of course I didn't forget. I wouldn't forget the most important thing"

Rose quickly tried to change the subject telling Darien "did you know that when Sam was six she won the little miss pageant and walked around with her crown on for a month we couldn't get her to take it off; then when she was thirteen she won the miss teen pageant our Samantha was born to wear a crown" she said to him with a smile.

Serena started bursting out laughing as she told her mother "very subtle ma, why don't you just tell him right out to take your daughter to prom so she can be queen that's all she really cares about"

Rose turned to her daughter as she yelled at Serena "if you don't watch your mouth you're going to your room young lady". Serena shut her mouth and finished eating as Rose continued telling Darien "Samantha also took dance lessons and was a model isn't that right Sam".

Samantha smiled up at Darien with a mouth full of food as she nodded her head yes.

Serena couldn't stand it anymore her mother going on telling a great guy like Darien how wonderful and perfect her sister was when she wasn't as she turned telling him "yeah Sam is beautiful but that's it. The truth is she's rude, obnoxious, she cheats and treats others like crap she doesn't deserve to be queen".

Rose Taylor stood up telling her daughter "get upstairs this instant you brat I don't want to see your face for the rest of the night".

Serena looked at her mother and yelled back "fine" as she stood up grabbed her coat and walked out the door, slamming it behind her.

Sam looked at her sister leave then finished eating, mumbling as she chewed "good ridince".

Darien stood up from his spot and excused himself "I'm sorry but I lost my appetite" as he walked over, grabbed his jacket then walked out the door.

Outside

Darien walked out to see Serena sitting on her front porch as she looked up at him with tear filled eyes "I didn't no where else to go". Darien sat next to her, wiped the tears from her eyes then asked "do you want to get out of here". Serena started to dry up her tears as she smiled up at him saying "more then anything".

He stood up taking her hand and telling her "come on let's get out of here".

They got into his sports car and pulled out of the driveway. As Samantha watched from the window, as they drove away.

In the car

Serena turned to him asking "so where are we headed". Darien looked to her with a smile coming to his face as he told her "I know a place".
