Darien gaped at the empty space of the open door. Damn! What the hell was he thinking? He wanders to the couch and collapses upon the sofa face first. His head felt heavy. A glimpse of an image crosses past his closed eyes.
"Please….."
"No!"
"But you promised…"
"No!"
Serena crawled up next to him; wrapped her arms around his neck and gazed into his deep stormy ocean eyes and implored again.
"Please…?"
"Hey, can't you see I'm studying here!" he smiled at her softly. If she keeps whining and side detractions up any longer, he will lose his cool. Oh what the heck, the book falls out of his hands, so much for studying. "Where are you hiding the chocolate? I have searched everywhere in this so called apartment." As she leans forward only to kiss him on the nose. "Okay fine." He said disappointed. He rummages through his backpack and pulls out the bag! He passes over the bag slightly cringing. Serena immediately snatches the bag from his out reached hands. "Dove chocolates! My favorite! Hey wait a minute its three-fourths empty. Darien how many have you eaten?" Serena remarked laughing. Darien turns a light shade of pink. "Well you would of woof the whole bag down in less then a minute meatball head!"
"What!" Serena exclaimed wide eyed.
Whack!
"I'm only kidding Sere." He said while rubbing the back of his head. She started to giggle at his reaction. Ah that girl drives me crazy, he thinks to himself Darien wraps his arms around Serena's waist and pulls her close to him. "How many have you already eaten?"
"Open wide." She said playfully as she placed a chocolate in his watering mouth. His eyes close as he saviors the taste. She began giggling again. "Darien, what are you thinking?' He opens his stormy eyes, "of you." She smiles and gives him a quick peck on the lips. He is so cute! Darien knew he should be studying, big test tomorrow, but his baby is here right in front of him. Studying could always wait.
"Crap!"
"What!"
"I was supposed to be home a half hour ago."
She always knew how to ruin the moment. "Okay," Darien said reluctantly.
He leaned over and kissed her as Serena started to rise.
The memory fades as he remembers reality. Darien cursed himself as he remembers the look of terror and anger in her eyes as she ran from him. Something was defiantly not right here, he didn't feel her transform, but could feel her soul was being broken. "Serena stop, stop that" he mumble to himself. His head hurt and he felt like shit. I must go to her, but I can't. If she transforms I will go to her. He vowed.
