Last Chapter

When Darien caught his breath he looked Serena in the eyes. He knew then what he wanted to say, before not sure of his feelings, but now there was no denying, "I love you, Serena."

Serena's breath caught in her throat as she stared in Darien's eyes looking for any sign of teasing, any sign of lying. But all she could see was sincerity…and love. She knew then as well, what the feelings she had been feeling recently were. The fact that Queen Serenity had said they were soul mates had nothing to do with it. She knew that it didn't matter. She whispered in return, "I love you, too," before leaning in for another kiss.


Chapter 11

Serena woke up to a heavenly smell. Food! More specifically, she smelled bacon and eggs, her favorite breakfast. She was just about to pull herself out of bed when the food was placed in front of her.

"Wow! It worked," a deep voice chuckled from beside her.

"What worked?" she asked between bites of bacon.

"You actually woke up willingly at 9:00 am, all because of the smell of food," the voice responded with sarcasm.

Serena turned her attention to the man sitting beside her and glared. She finished the bite of food in her mouth before she retorted, "Why do you have to be so mean, Darien! You know? I thought you loved me…but…if you keep acting like this I may just have to…tell Rei that you want to date her!"

Darien's eyes widened a fraction before they lowered into slits, "You wouldn't."

"What makes you think that I wouldn't?" she asked convincingly as she finished the food.

"I fix you breakfast and you threaten to do that to me?" he coaxed while moving the food tray.

"Well, you made fun of me so you have to pay for your consequences," she smiled back menacingly.

"Well, I'll just have to change that," Darien stated before he tackled Serena to the bed and started tickling her.

"AAHHH, DARIEN NOOOOOOO!" Serena yelled before she started laughing hysterically.

"Take back what you said about me wanting to date Rei," he said continuing his onslaught.

"Never…you were…mean…to me!" she got out between laughs.

"If you won't take it back, I won't stop," he replied while tickling harder.

"OKAY…I give!" she breathed. Darien quit his assault and allowed Serena to catch her breath. "I wouldn't have told her that anyways. Why would I tell Rei that my man wanted to date her?"

A huge smile made its way on to Darien's face as he looked at his new girlfriend, "I love you too, sweetheart." Serena smiled back as they both sat up on the bed.

"Darien, will you close your eyes?" she asked putting on an innocent face.

"Why do you want me to close my eyes?" he asked a little suspicious.

"It's a surprise," she grinned back.

Darien, being the obedient boyfriend that he is, closed his eyes while thinking, 'I bet she's going to give me a kiss. I deserve one after the threat she ma-' his thoughts were cut off as he felt two small hands touch his chest. He focused solely on the hands and the warmth the emitted. Just as he thought that Serena was going to kiss him, he was pushed off the bed. He opened his eyes to see golden hair fly into the bathroom.

"Sere, I'll get you for that," he yelled after his minx while picking himself off the floor. Giggles were heard in the bathroom just before the click of the lock resounded through the room.

'She must not realize that I have a key to every room in this apartment,' Darien thought as he walked over to the bathroom. The sound of water could be heard signaling that Serena was taking a shower. Darien quietly pulled out his keys from the pocket of the pants he was wearing. He unlocked the door and snuck into the bathroom. He then proceeded to quietly undress and slipped into the shower.

"AAAAAHHHHHH," Serena screamed as a pair of arms circled around her waist. She turned around to see Darien smiling and quietly laughing.

"What? Did you not think of me having a key?" he asked with smirk and a raised eyebrow.

"No, I didn't," she pouted. Darien couldn't resist his girlfriend's adorable face and leaned down to kiss her.

KNOCK…KNOCK…KNOCK

Andrew stood in front of an apartment door waiting for his best friend to answer.

'I wonder where he is,' he thought, 'he was supposed to meet me at the library to study. It's not like him to not show without calling.' He pulled out his cell again to check for any missed calls.

'Nothing…hey, I didn't think about calling him.' He pressed in the numbers and held the phone up to his ear. When he got the answering machine, he hung up and tried Darien's cell phone. He, again, got no answer and started knocking again. After five minutes of waiting he started to get slightly worried and pulled out his spare key. He was just about to unlock the door when it opened up to reveal Darien in a towel.

"Andrew? What are you doing here?" Darien asked as he made a quick, cautious glance to the bathroom.

"I came to see what happened to you," Andrew replied, "Its Saturday, did you forget about our study session?"

"Oh man, I completely forgot. I've been kind of preoccupied," the towel clad man responded, looking over his shoulder yet again.

"What do you keep looking at and how come I'm still in the hall?" Andrew asked looking behind his best friend.

"Uh…nothing and you can't come in right now. I'm busy," Darien said uneasily.

"Oh. My. God! You have a girl in there don't you?" Andrew deduced and then proceeded to push past Darien into the apartment.

"Drew, what are you doing," Darien frantically cried.

"The entire time that I have known you, you have never had a girl in your apartment. I have to see this," Andrew stated making his way towards the bathroom. He got to the bathroom door and opened it up, while Darien frantically tried to stop him.

CLICK

Rei hung up the phone before she sighed in exasperation, "Where is that Meatball Head? She didn't answer the phone at her house. Are you sure she wasn't at the Arcade?"

"She wasn't there," Ami replied to the miko's question, "Elizabeth said that she hadn't seen her all day."

"She wasn't in the park either," Lita spoke up, "but maybe she's at the store or something. I mean her parents are gone, she has to keep the house in order."

"You're probably right, Lita. Anyways, we can't have the meeting without Luna," Rei stated slightly annoyed.

Ami being the logical one added, "Lets look for Luna, and when we find her we can call Serena on the communicator."

"Good idea, Ames. I have to run home for something anyways. See you guys later," Lita spoke before getting up and leaving.

I have to go to the Library. Maybe you could do a fire reading, Rei?" Ami asked.

"Sure, see you later," Rei responded before heading into the fire room.

The door opened to reveal a slightly steamy bathroom; however, there was nobody inside. Andrew turned around to see a confused Darien. Automatically, he knew someone was in the apartment, and decided that the only place left to look was the bedroom. He moved around a still confused Darien to the bedroom door. He opened the door and promptly fainted.

> > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > >

Darien heard "thunk" and turned around to see a golden haired goddess in a towel standing in his bedroom. On closer inspection he noticed that his goddess had a surprised look on her face and was looking at the floor.

'That reminds me…where did Andrew go?' Darien thought as he looked around, 'oh…that's where he went.'

He was brought out of his thoughts when some groans emitted from his friend, "Drew, are you ok?"

"Yeah, but I just had the craziest dream. You had a girl in your apartment and it turned out to be Serena," Andrew chuckled, "funny huh?"

"Actually…" Serena spoke up uneasily. In a flash Andrew was up and staring between her and Darien with his mouth open. "If you guys don't mind I need to change," she said before closing the door in her boyfriend's and 'older brothers' faces. Andrew continued to stare at Darien in disbelief.

"What?" Darien asked innocently.

Andrew's demeanor immediately changed and he growled out, "You had better explain what my little sister is doing in your apartment! You might also want to include why you are both in towels!"

Darien didn't know whether to be scared or to laugh at Andrew's expression. However, he opted to just stay calm and answer the only thing that would answer his question.

"I love her."

Andrew's expression changed again, "Come again?"

"I love her, Drew," Darien smiled, "she's the light of my life."

"What caused all of this to happen? I could have sworn that you two hated each other," the blonde questioned.

Darien replied, "I never hated her. I always liked her, but because of my past I never wanted to get close. I was afraid I would get hurt. Something happened and I couldn't help but fall in love."

"It's a long story, Andy," a feminine voice spoke up. The two men turned around to find Serena dressed in her school uniform. "You might want to sit down," she added while pushing them into the living room, where they proceeded to explain everything.

> > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > >

"So, how come you told me all of this?" Andrew asked when the two were finished with their story.

"Yeah, why did we tell him this?" Darien looked expectantly at his girlfriend.

"I felt that since you're Darien's best friend and my unofficial 'older brother' you had the right to know. I mean we run off all of the time and you never bother us about it. Weren't you ever curious as to where we went?" Serena answered.

"Yeah, but I never thought it would be as big as you guys fighting youma," Andrew replied, "and your secret is safe with me." He gazed off in his own thoughts before suddenly jumping up and grabbing their hands, "YOU KNOW WHAT THIS MEANS, THOUGH! WE COULD MAKE A TON OF MONEY. WE COULD TAKE PICTURES AND SELL THEM…OR SIGN AUTOGRAPHS FOR THE ARCAD-"

His ramblings were cut off as he was unceremoniously pushed out of the apartment.

However, before the door was closed Serena stuck her head out, "Don't tell the girls, though. We don't want them to know yet. We'll tell them when the time is right, ok?"

"Sure thing," Andrew smiled before walking away whistling a tune.

Darien just shook his head at his friend and closed the door smiling. He then turned around and grabbed his girlfriend in a tight embrace, "For a minute there I thought he was going to ring my neck."

Serena giggled and gave him a kiss on the lips and was about to reply when her communicator went off.

BEEP…BEEP…BEEP

"Hello?" She asked into the little pink looking calculator.

"Serena, we're getting ready to have a meeting at the Temple. Can you be there in about 30 minutes?" Lita answered over the connection.

"Yep, I'll see you there," she replied before shutting it off, "looks like I'll see you later Darien. I have to go to the meeting; I am the leader after all."

"I understand," he replied giving her a kiss, "I have to work on a report anyway. I'll see you later. Give me a call on my cell, when you're done." He proceeded to write down his number and handed it to her.

"Okay...I'll talk to you later, bye," she smiled and headed towards the Cherry Hill Temple.
