RECAP: Serena opened the door that joined her room and Darien's room. "Darien?" Serena looked around the room and saw Darien, who was shirtless, making out with Anne.
"Oh, Darien! I love you so much!" Anne squealed. Tears started to stream down Serena's eyes.
"I love you, too, Anne." Darien mumbled as he passionately kissed Anne.
Chapter 6-
"Darien?" Serena asked timidly.
Darien looked up to see Serena standing in front of him. "I'm sorry, Serena. But I love, Anne…" Serena's heart fell.
"Serena! Serena! Wake up!" a voice said.
Serena felt someone shake her. Her eyes fluttered open to see Darien sitting next to her. "Darien? What are you doing here? Where's Anne?" Serena wiped the tears away from her eyes.
"What do you mean? Anne isn't here. Don't you remember? We were going to take a walk in the garden." Darien saw Serena wiping the tears away from her eyes. "What's wrong, Serena?" Darien asked with concern in his eyes.
"Oh, nothing. It was just…a bad dream."
"Okay…. Let's go then!" Darien grabbed Serena's hand and headed towards the door. Serena's heart was pounding loudly in her ears and her stomach was doing flips.
Darien and Serena strolled down the hallway, hand in hand. They reached the elevator and Darien pushed the button. Realizing that he was still holding Serena's hand, Darien let go. "Sorry," he said.
Serena looked up, and blushed. "I'm sorry, Serena. But I love, Anne…" The words repeated in Serena's head. I can't get that dream out of my head. It felt…so real!
DING!
Serena's thoughts were interrupted. The elevator doors opened and Darien and Serena walked out. They walked slowly and headed towards the garden.
"Wow! Oh my gosh!" Serena was shocked! The garden was beautiful. It contained an assortment of flowers, such as roses.
"It's pretty amazing, isn't it?" Darien asked.
"It's…it's…beautiful!" Serena exclaimed as she walked towards the rose bushes. Now I know where to go when I want to come and think. She sniffed the flowers and all of a sudden, a bee came out of it. "AHHHHH!" Serena screamed as she fell onto Darien. Serena and Darien fell onto the stone pavement. "Owwww…" Serena said as she rubbed her knee not noticing that she was on top of Darien.
"Geez, Sere!" Darien mumbled underneath her.
Serena looked around to see where the voice was coming from, and saw Darien in pain underneath her. "OH MY GOD! Darien! Are you alright! I'm so sorry!" Serena immediately got off of him and kneeled next to him.
"I'm fine. Its okay, Serena. I'm fine REALLY." Darien assured.
"Are you sure? I'm sorry! I'm so clumsy!"
"Don't worry, Sere. Let's go look around!" Darien got up, held Serena's hand, and pulled her towards the pond. They sat down on a bench by the pond.
"It's amazing," he heard Serena whisper.
"Yeah," he said as he looked at Serena. Serena looked up to see Darien staring at her. She blushed as Darien smiled at her.
The cool wind brushed against her skin and Serena shivered. Darien took off his jacket and carefully placed it over her shoulders. "Thanks, Darien." Serena smiled and sat closer to Darien's warm body.
Darien glanced at her at the corner of his eye and smiled to himself. She looked at him and stared into his midnight blue eyes. Darien looked at her and smirked. "See something you like?" he asked.
"Yeah," Serena said subconsciously as she licked her lips.
He smiled at her and leaned into give her a kiss. Their lips brushed against each other and separated. Serena was shocked! She couldn't believe what was happening! She kissed the one guy that made her heart beat faster and faster. "Darien," she whispered as she leaned into kiss him again. Their lips pressed against each other and Serena was starting to feel like jelly. Once they could no longer breathe, their lips parted and Darien and Serena stared into each other's eyes.
Anne saw Darien and Serena kissing. Her blood boiled with anger. How could he do this to ME! That's it! I've been TOO nice to Serena! I'm going to be with Darien if it's the LAST thing I DO!
Serena smiled widely at Darien. I'm so happy for a change!
"Serena, I know we just met a couple days ago, but I really like you," Darien told a dumbfounded Serena.
She couldn't stop smiling at Darien. "I like you, too, Darien!" Darien pulled Serena onto his lap. She rested her head against his chest and sighed. "This is perfect," she whispered.
The couple sat by the pond for awhile until they realized the time. It was 12:30 and they were supposed to meet the group in 5 minutes! "Serena, I don't mean to ruin this moment, but…we're going to be late for lunch." He laughed because he heard Serena groan. "Come on…." Darien and Serena stood up and Darien held Serena's hand.
They walked into the lobby and saw the other tourists in their group. They sat down and waited for the rest of the group to arrive. "Hey Drew!" Serena exclaimed as she saw Andrew walk past them.
Andrew looked up to see Darien's arm around Serena's waist. "Look! The love birds have FINALLY gotten together!" Darien, Serena, and Andrew laughed together. Andrew has never seen Darien so happy! "Well, it was about TIME you guys! I was tired of waiting!" Andrew exclaimed. Serena giggled and rested her head against Darien's chest.
Serena's mother walked up the couple smiling. "Hey, mom!" Serena said as she got up and hugged her mother.
"It's about time Darien and you got together," Ilene said. Serena and Andrew laughed, while Darien blushed.
The tour guide pushed everyone towards the restaurant and everyone sat down at three big round tables. Serena, Darien, and Andrew shared a table with Anne and another family. Serena sat next to Anne and they chatted happily. Little did she know that Anne was plotting something against Serena. The waiters served the drinks and poured everyone a cup of tea.
Anne smiled wickedly and knocked her drink into Serena's lap. "Oh! I'm so sorry, Serena!" she said sarcastically.
Serena smiled. "Um, its okay, Anne. I guess I'll have to go back to my room and change. I'll be right back, Darien." Serena stood up from her seat, kissed Darien on the cheek, and headed towards her hotel room.
Anne smiled. Now it's my chance to get Darien! Anne pretended to cry. "I'm so clumsy. It was all my fault." Darien looked at her and felt sympathetic towards her. Darien sat in Serena's seat and tried to comfort her. This is PERFECT! Now I've got Darien right where I want him! Serena was on her way back from hotel room and stopped in her tracks. She saw Darien kissing Anne. Serena stared in disbelief and ran back to her hotel room.
