I'M HAVING A LITTLE BOY AND A LITTLE GIRL! MY BOYFRIEND AND I HAVE NO CLUE WHAT TO CALL THEM.

After supper there was long silence. "So…Mina. Darien and I where going to go shop and find things for the wedding. Do you know any good wedding planners? Some one who can get everything together in a month?" She asked breaking the silence.

Mina looked at Darien. She knew he liked her more then he claimed. She felt so bad.

"Um…yeah. Her name is Samantha Stuart. I have her number in my purse. I'll be right back" she said getting up.

When Mina left Serena decided to talk to Darien.

"Darien. I'm really happy that you said you would help me with all of this. It means a lot. After the meeting with the wedding planner I was hoping you would help me find a dress." She smiled

"Sure. And no problem. I just want everyone to be happy." He said.

Everyone except me that is

Serena got up from her seat and went to Darien. She hugged him. Darien couldn't help but smell the sweet sent of her hair.

God she smells so good.

"Alright everyone. I got Sammie's number." Mina said waving the piece of paper around.

"Sammie" Serena whispered in horror.

Serena let go of Darien and went to Mina.

"Thank you Mina. Um…I just need a few moments… alone." She said in a different attitude. It was likes she went from happy to miserable.

After Serena was no where to be found Darien asked the question that was bothering since she said the name Sammie.

"Who's…?" Darien started to say.

"Sammie…it's…um…maybe you should ask Serena about this one. I know my best friend and she wouldn't want to go blabbing everything. But the only thing I can tell you is that Sammie is a nice small boy who's been having a lot of problems lately. He's been through a lot." Mina said in a sad manner.

Darien nodded.

Maybe 'Sammie' is the key to this whole thing. Maybe 'Sammie is the one who will break Serena and my grand-father up.

The next morning started out as a normal typical day. Serena took her shower and went for breakfast. Darien waited for Serena to finish her shower so he could take one as well.

When he got in, he smelt her shampoo. He was in heaven. The smell made him think of things he and Serena would do if they got involved. He started fantasizing about her and 'their' wedding. He thought about how their children would look like and what they would name them.

Thinking about names made him snap back to reality. Who was Sammie? He vowed that he would find out. Maybe today would be a great day to call Amy to see how the progress was going.

I pray you aren't lying to us Serena.

He got out of the shower and put a towel around himself and headed downstairs to see what was cooking for breakfast.

"Good morning Darien!" Serena smiled up at Darien.

"Good morning."

"Don't eat breakfast. We can eat something at a nice restaurant. Just go change and we will leave soon. Alright?" She asked him.

"Why? Where…? Oh that's today!" He said. He completely forgot. Serena and him where supposed to meet the wedding planner and go dress shopping!

"Well yeah." She laughed. "Remember, we only have a month.

"Alright, I'll be right back in a few minutes"

"Okay!"

VVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVV

"So…what is this place called again?" Serena asked walking to a booth.

"The Crown Arcade" Darien told her pointing at a cute spot in the corner.

She sat down.

"I didn't know an arcade had a restaurant."

"Well this one does. But don't worry, there food is great. Especially their breakfast."

Serena smiled and nodded. "Well it does smell good!"

Darien nodded.

"Hey there Darien! Who's this beautiful woman?" some guy asked with blonde hair and natural curls and green eyes. He was definitely tall, but not as tall as Darien. Around 5'10…5'11. He whore an apron with a name tag that's said: Andrew Crown. Serena assumed this guy knew the owner, or was the owner…why else would it be called 'The Crown Arcade'.

"Hey Andy! This is Serena. Serena…this is Andrew. He and I are cousins. His father is my mother's brother."

"Hello" the both said.

"It's nice to meet you Andrew." She smiled.

"En chanter" he said in a funny expression.

Serena laughed.

"So what would you guys want?" He asked taking out his notepad.

"Well, I'll have my usual, and Serena will have…"

"I'll have to same thing."

"But you don't know what I'm ordering." He stated.

"It's alright. I love food." She smiled.

"Alright, it should take a few minutes"

"Okay, thanks Andrew!" Darien called out.

"So…what time is your appointment with Samantha Stuart?" Darien asked her.

"In about 45 minutes, so we have to eat and run. Her office is pretty close to here, but I want to get there a little early" She said looking at her watch.

"Okay, sounds good"

Serena nodded.

Shortly after, Andrew came back with two coffees.

"Yumm…Coffee! It smells good!" Serena said liking her lips.

Darien smiled and thanked Andrew.

She took a sip from the coffee.

"OWW…" she cried in pain.

"Are you okay?" He asked.

Serena tried not to cry but the coffee burned her tongue. She just nodded. Darien knew it still hurt. He could tell by her facial expression. Darien sat beside her.

"Stick out your tongue." Darien asked politely.

"Darien, it's okay, I'm fine."

"Open!"

She finally opened her mouth and stuck out her tongue.

"Yeah, you definitely burned your tongue," He said looking at the big white bubble.

"I'll be okay…you finish your coffee and then we'll head out." She said sliding his coffee over.

Darien nodded.

VVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVV

After the coffee, Serena and Darien went strait to Samantha's office.

"Hello…can I help you?" The secretary asked.

"Yes, I have an appointment with Samanth…"

"Are you Serena Geller?" She said cutting Serena off.

"Yes, my appointment is at…"

"She's busy at the moment, please take a seat. She's just a few minutes late" She said cutting off Serena once more.

Serena didn't bother arguing with her so she sat down.

"Serena…why do you let her boss you around like that. You're the customer, she's the secretary. You should be standing up for yourself and tell that women you want to talk to Samantha!" Darien whispered to her.

"I can't do that. I don't have a problem waiting. It's alright Darien…Samantha is probably a busy women. I respect that" She whispered back

"Alright…do what you want it's your wedding."

"Darien…"

"Alright, same time tomorrow!" someone in an elegant red blazer and matching flared short skirt said.

"I wouldn't miss it for the world Sammie" some young man said fixing his wrinkled shirt.

Darien just stared up at the young women obviously names Samantha. She was definitely a beautiful young woman, but nothing compared to Serena.

"Miss Geller, I'm ready for you and your husband." Samantha yelled out reading the list.

Serena and Darien just stared at each other with a little hint of blush running in both of their cheeks.

"So…what can I do for the two of you?"

"Well my wedding day in set to be in a month from now so I…"

"You want a big or small wedding? She said writing down some notes.

"Well I was thinking a nice small yet fancy wedding."

"oh...kay. Where do you want it to be held?"

"Well…I don't know…I …"

"Let's just make something clear…You want a small wedding somewhere in town…"

"Yeah! It doesn't matter where. Like you can plan everything and she tell me where and when."

"Okay! That's better. You're lucky I'm the only one in town who does all of this. But you will have to sign a few things.

"Oh okay…" Serena said before she left.
