Chapter 26 A lovely Picnic

I sit here staring into the blue sky through the window thinking of something to convince his parents. Something, something that would make them fall in love with Beryl. Oh how I wish I was back home in New York. The day I met Darien I knew my life would get complicated. My life has turned in to a cruel joke as I think about it . Could this really work? I'm so deep in thought that I totally forget to have breakfast or lunch for that matter. I heard a growl in my stomach. Oh it was time for lunch. I slowly walked to the garden, trying to remember everything before I leave Maybe I should just stop before I completely loose my sanity. I sat on a big swing trying to picture my mother and father and Andrew and all together playing but nothing came into mind.

"Ma told me you haven eaten anything today,'" someone said behind me. I turn around and see Darien holding a picnic basket.

"Um yea," I said blushing after hearing another growl from my stomach.

"So what were you doing out here," he asked.

"Just thinking," I sighed.

"Thinking about what?" he asked again.

"Everything, my past which haunts me since today, my present that laughs at me like I'm a cruel joke and my future just looks dim from where I stand," I said actually giving words to what I felt in my lonely heart.

He didn't say anything for quite awhile. I don't blame him what was he suppose to say to that. Serena you have lost you're mind back to the asylum where you came from'.

"All I know for right now is that if you ever need anything I'll be here for you," he said holding my hand. It shot sparks through my veins. I hugged him just for the hell of it but the damn basket was in the way.

"So how about it Meatball head would you give me the honor to go to the picnic with me," he said as a gleam sparkled in his eye.

Before I could joyously utter my reply I heard someone yell, "SERENA where are you?"

We both turned to see who it was.

"SEIYA!" I said yelling back laughingly. Darien lets go of my hand as I jump from the swing and run towards Seiya.

"Over here!" I said yelling again waving my arms frantically. He runs to me and envelops me in a big hug and twirls me around as I giggle at his display.

"Oh Seiya what hit you? A hurricane or something," I said failing to stop laughing. His hair was everywhere and his clothes were all wrinkled like he just got from bed whereas Darien's were perfect not even a wrinkle.

"No my darling you hit me and I'm so sorry," he said and his eyes said just play along.

"You should be," I said mustering a glare that I didn't have a clue about.

"Sorry about what?" Darien said coming from behind me . Oops totally forgot about him.

"I was suppose to take her to a picnic near the lake," he said with a guilty tone. You had to totally give him an Oscar for his acting.

"Yea that's why I didn't eat breakfast or lunch because I was waiting for you to magically arrive," I said in an angry voice.

"UH OH!" he said as his face paled, he almost looked like the guys whose life got sucked out or something. Told you this guy was marvelous and being the concerned girlfriend I had to do something.

"Seiya are you alright Seiya please answer me," I said tugging at on his arm anxiously.

"I left the picnic basket at home," he squeaked and I couldn't help it I started laughing hysterically and clutching to my stomach from the pain. They totally thought I lost the bit of sanity I had.

"Oh Seiya it's alright honey," I said giving a peck on his cheek.

"You sure," he said with this uncertainty in his voice.

"Definitely," I said grinning like a fool.

"Oh there's a basket on that swing it's god send," Seiya said folding his hands together.

"It's Darien's Seiya," I said feeling guilty.

"He won't mind would you Darien?" he asked. We both looked at him.

"Uh no be my guest," he said a bit hesitantly.

"Great I bet Serena's starved, you know her appetite," he said grinning like a mad man.

"You don't mind then Darien?" I asked slowly.

"Naw, you guys go right ahead I have to meet Beryl in a bit," he said. Was that hurt in his voice? I watched him as he slowly walked away. I totally felt like a bitch but who fault was it. The first thing I did was slap Seiya hard on the chest.

"Hey what was that for?" he said making a face.

"What the fuck do you think you're doing asshole I was going to the picnic with Darien isn't that what we all wanted," I said shooting daggers through my eyes if that was possible.

"Stop with the foul language and again you're going to thank me for my abilities later," he said like he was on the top of the world.

"WHAT!" I shrieked.

"Let's have the picnic over here shall we?" he said grinning like the BIG GRINCH.

"You'll see…" he said it like he had something up his bloody sleeves.

(Darien POV)

She deserves better than Seiya. Her going to the picnic with Seiya didn't make me happy what I thought it would . 'Maybe you're just jealous Darien' my conscious said.

"Oh shut up," I shot back.

'You have to admit she looked beautiful today' it replied back. I had nothing to say to that, she indeed looked radiant in the sun today. I couldn't help but peek through the window where they were having that god damn picnic, which I made myself with my own hands. They were cuddled together so warmly and laughing like there was nothing in the world that would separate them. OH BLOODY HELL why do I feel enraged I don't like Serena that way and no I'm not gay with Seiya. But when I see her with him it just makes my blood boil.

"Hello darling," as a hand encircled my neck.

"Hi Beryl," I said not feeling the excitement I used to. She kissed me passionately but didn't feel anything/ NOTHING at all. All of a sudden I look outside and it was a horrible sight Serena kidding Sieya madly and I just felt like puking my guts out.
