Chapter Two: Tell me that we belong together…

Tell me that we belong together

Dress it up with the trappings of love

I'll be captivated, I'll hang from your lips

Instead of the gallows of heartache that hang from above

After all the girls had gone their separate ways, Serena and Darien spent increasing amounts of time alone in her suite, the funny thing was, they weren't even DOING anything. They were just sitting around in their pajamas eating ice cream and watching old movies. Three days before they had to leave to go back to the city, drastic changes were made in Serena and Darien's relationship.

It had all started innocently enough, they were doing what they had done every day for the past week, watching old movies and talking about everything. Halfway through her pint of Triple Fudge Brownie ice cream, Serena turned her head to find Darien staring at her.

"Dare? Why are you staring at…mmmph." Serena's question was cut off by Darien's lips pressing against hers. She put her hands up to push him off of her, but by the time she had put the ice cream down, she was caught up in the kiss and started running her hands through his shaggy, gorgeous, dark brown hair.

The kiss lasted for a good five minutes, neither of them stopping for air, just breathing through their noses. Sure it was a weird sensation, but Serena didn't want this moment to end. When they finally came up for air, they were both breathing heavily and had somehow ended up horizontally along the couch, Darien had her pinned.

"Darien…what…why?" Serena stumbled for the right words to try and express what was running through her head.

"Sere, I love you…that's the reason I came here…I've loved you since we were 13 in that stupid play…" He laughed nervously, afraid of what she would say next.

Unleashing her hand from underneath Darien's knee, she moved it to turn his face to hers, making him look into her eyes. What she did next surprised both of them. She brought his face to hers, and initiated another round of tonsil hockey. A short while after that, she was tugging at the hem of his shirt, pulling it off of him roughly, separating their mouths for a brief moment to throw the shirt to the floor.

Running her hands along his rock hard abs, his gorgeous, gorgeous abs, she moaned and he started kissing her with more zeal. Not long after that, her shirt too was on the floor. And not long after that at all, she was completely naked, while he still had his boxers on.

"Sere, are you sure?" He asked her, gazing into her eyes, concern in his.

"I've never been so sure in my life Dare."

"But aren't you a…" He didn't have to finish that question for her to blush and turn her head away, mumbling something incoherently. "Don't be embarrassed Sere, I love the fact that you are…I wish I was again…"

She gazed up at him, and in that split second she knew she was ready, and that must have showed on her face because he picked her up gently and carried her into the bedroom. Setting her gently on the bed, he took off his boxers and kneeled in front of her, drinking in her beauty. Good God she's so beautiful… he thought as he started caressing her breasts. She moaned in response and edged closer to him.

Taking that cue he began smothering her body in light, tender kisses, raising goose bumps on her pale skin, making her shiver in pleasure. Working his way from her neck, he moved farther and farther down, and suddenly, without warning shoved into her. His tactic worked, as she gasped from the momentary pain, but did not get fazed as she hadn't had time to anticipate what was happening.

Their bodies moving in time with one another, they started to compose a beautiful work of art. Her thrusts meeting his, rolling around in the oversized bed, sweating against one another, showing their exertion. Until finally they each reached the highlight of their lovemaking. Breathing rapidly and clutching each other for dear life, one more thrust and they were both over the edge, plummeting into wave after wave of sheer bliss. And then, they were asleep. Two best friends turned lovers, falling asleep in each others arms. What harm was there in that?
