Authors notes: this story was inspired by the song "unfaithful" by Rihanna. I know it may seem that Serena must not love Darien if she's cheating on him. If you have heard the song it makes the story a little easier to understand, that's why I put quotes of it in my story. Basically right now Serena is confused on what she considers love, because to her she thinks she loves both of them equally, but she will learn she can't have her cake and eat it too.

"I feel it in the air,

if I'm doing my hair.

Preparing for another day.

A kiss up on my cheek.

He's here reluctantly

As if I'm going to be out late.

I say I won't be long,

Just hanging with the girls.

A lie I didn't have to tell

Because we both know

Where I'm about to

And we know it very well"

-Rihanna, unfaithful.

Serena was in the bathroom getting ready for another "date" with Seiya. She was doing her hair when Darien walked in. "you look nice. Going out some where?" he asked.

"Just hanging with the girls." She told him.

He gave her a kiss on the cheek and walked out the door. She could tell there was something wrong. 'it's almost as if he knows I'm lying.' She thought. He finished doing her hair and walked into the living room. She spotted Darien watching t.v. she came over to him and sat by him leaning her head on him shoulder.

"I won't be long. We're just going out for some drinks." She explained.

"It seems like you've been hanging out with the girls a lot lately. You guys usually only go to jupiters once a week."

"Well it was your sister's idea to go tonight, you know Raye, party, party, party."

"I see well have fun sweet heart." He said as she gave him a hug and kiss goodbye then grabbed her keys and headed for the door.

'So she's going out with Raye tonight' he thought. 'Maybe I should give her a call. something tells me Serena is lying to me. I can see it in her eyes.' He picked up the phone and dialed his sister's number.

"Hello. Raye are you going to Jupiter's with Serena tonight?" he asked.

"No why was I supposed to?"

"No I just couldn't remember who she was going with and I thought it might be you, but obviously not."

"Ok bro, I'll talk to you later. Bye" he hung up the phone and grabbed his keys. He walked out of the apartment pissed off. 'well I'll just hae to go down to Jupiter's and find out who she is with.' He sped out of the complex and headed towards the restaurant.

Serena and Seiya were already sitting at the bar having a drink. They were chatting about Seiya's upcoming concert. "Seiya I don't feel comfortable staying here. Someone could see us." She told him.

"Yeah, I guess you're right. Besides we will have more fun at my place anyways." He said with a wink. He paid for the drinks and they headed out. Just as they were walking to his car Darien pulled in.

Darien saw his wife get in the car with another man and that's when he knew she wasn't his anymore. He pulled out of the parking lot and zoomed back to their place. When he got to the apartment he broke down. It felt like his life had just shattered. His one true love was seeing another man! 'How could this be?' he thought. 'How could she do this to me? Doesn't she love me anymore? How long has this been going on?' all these questions were flying through his mind. He never felt this way before. He felt as if he was going to die. He didn't know what to do, so he just collapsed and cried for his heart was broken.

Meanwhile the two lovers were getting a little frisky back at Seiya's place. "Seiya do you love me" she asked.

"Of course I do sere. Do you even have to ask?"

"I guess not" she laughed. Things were going perfect right now. She couldn't be happier. All the doubts about their relationship were gone. She knew now it was the right thing. Little did she know her husband was having a break down at this very moment.

"What are you smiling about" he asked her.

"Just think about you."

"Oh really is that all?"

"Maybe…..maybe not."

"I can give you more to think about" he told her as he walked over to her and started kissing her. Soon things go heated up and they made sweet love on his couch. She sat there with her fingers running through his hair. She noticed he was asleep and thought it looked like a good idea, but before she closed her eyes she glanced at the clock and saw it was 11:26. 'I better get home before Darien starts to wonder what I'm doing.' She got up and gave the sleeping Seiya a kiss on the fore head and tip toed to the door.

She finally arrived home at about 11:42 and quietly walked into her apartment. She couldn't stop smiling; her heart was soaring. Suddenly, she heard a noise. She walked closer to where the noise was coming from and realized it was Darien. He was crying!

Her happiness faded away and that familiar quilt rushed over her like a rain storm.

"Serena why would you do this to me! I love you damn it! I love you so damn much!' he said to no one in particular. He didn't even know she was home yet.

Serena felt sick. She ran to the bathroom and started to throw up. She felt horrible. 'what the hell is wrong with me?' she thought as she started to cry. 'I don't get it! How could I ever think what I am doing is right? Look at how much pain I have caused Darien! I hate myself! I deserve to die!' she snapped out of her thoughts when she heard a knock at the bathroom door.

"Serena? Is that you" Darien asked.

Serena flung the door open and threw her self at Darien. She wrapped her arms around his neck and started crying into his chest. Automatically he put his arms comfortingly around her waist even though he knew he shouldn't be comforting her, not after what she did.

Serena was the first to speak "I'm sorry Darien! I'm so sorry! Please forgive me! Please. I don't want to lose you. I don't know what's wrong with me." She cried hysterically.

"I don't know Serena. I'm pretty much lost at what's going on. All I know is that you lied to me and you went out with another man tonight." He said as a few tears fell down his cheek as well.

"I met Seiya a year ago. And I don't know why I ever thought it was ok, but I started having a relationship with him. I thought that If I loved you both then it wasn't that bad, but now I see how horrible I've been and all the pain I caused you. And I'm sorry so sorry Darien." She started balling again.

"A YEAR! You've been seeing him for a year, and you expect me to just forgive and forget? And did you just say you loved him? How am I supposed to deal with this Serena?" he screamed.

"Did you sleep with him? No, of course you have. I don't know why I even bothered to ask. I can't believe you!" he was so pissed.

"Darien please listen to me! I'm sorry! I love you so much you have to believe me! I will never see Seiya again. It was stupid, I don't know what I was thinking. Please, Darien don't leave me. I can't live with out you."

"No, you can't? What about lover boy?" he asked not really wanting to know the answer.

"I don't want Seiya! I want you Darien! That's why I married you. I'm just a stupid slut and I hate myself! I feel like dieing! I should just go take a gun and shoot myself. I can't believe I did this to you. I don't disserve you." She was losing her mind by this point.

"Don't say things like that sere, you're scaring me. I'm just so pissed right now. Don't worry we can get through this. Now don't think I'm just going to forget this, but I think it would be better if we finish this chat in the morning." He told her.

He walked over to the couch and lay down.

"What are you doing" she asked.

"I don't really think I can sleep with you tonight."

With that being said she walked into their bedroom and tired to go to sleep, but she had this gnawing guilt eating away at her.

"cuz I know that he knows

I'm unfaithful. And it kills him in side

To know that I am happy with some

Other guy. I can see him dieing.

I don't want to do this anymore.

I don't want to be the reason why

Every time I walk out the door

I see him die a little more inside.

I don't want to hurt him anymore.

I don't want to take away his life.

I don't want to be…. A murderer."
