Okay guys I'm so sorry it has taken this lobg for me to get this chapter up but I...You know I really don't have a good excuse but I can tell you that my life has been very rough latly. Not only have I started a new year of work but my Aunt was diagnosed with Breat Cancer. That has been very hard on everyone in the family but no worries she will be fine it was stage two I believe. They took it out and now she is on Chemo. It's hard for us but she is very happy to have found it.

So on that note once again I am sorry about it taking so long. I'm usually better at this but you know...Life gets in the way.
Thank you to those who have taken the time to read and review this story I am very greatful to you all. Reviews help me to see what I have done wrong and or right, So keep them coming.

The Return of Serena

Chapter 11

When Serena got home that night all she could think about was how she had killed Trinity. She knew she had to do it but still she was very unhappy about how it unfolded. Serena was always the heart of the Scouts and thats part of what drove her to leave the first time. She knew she needed to toughen up and right now leaving wasn't looking to bad to her. Serena didn't sleep at all that night because her mind wouldn't stop racing about ways she could have handeled the situation without killing him. Ofcourse she found none. Serena finally gave up and went to bed. When she woke up hours later she just laid in bed and stared at the ceiling for a while. But ofcourse the phone was bound to ring sometime and that it did. So Serena got up and answered it only to find out it was Rei.

"Hello?"
"Hey Serena it's Rei what are you doing tonight?"
"Nothing that I know of...why?"
"Well the girls and I decided it was about time we had one of our sleepovers and it just wouldn't be a sleepover without you."

Serena at this point just sat there and laughed. She laughed so hard that she dropped the phone.

"Sure Rei sounds like a lot of fun"
"Normally I wouldn't be this mushy but I really missed you and I know we all hurt you but I just thought you should know that we couldn't bring ourselves to have a sleepover when you were gone"

"Thank you for telling me that Rei...It really means a lot to me"
'Well don't let it go to your head...I still think you're a Meatball brain"
"I know and I will see you tonight okay?"
'Okay see you then Serena...Bye"
"Bye Rei"

When Serena and Rei hung up Serena decided to go and take a shower. Serena went and grabbed her favorite towel out of the hall closet and turned on the water so it would get warm. After her shower Serena decided to go to the park. When she got there she was happy to see that it was pretty much deserted except for the couple across the lake who were totally making out and Serena wondered when they would come up for air. Serena went to her favorite spot in the park...The gardens. She found a bench and just sat there and thought about everything that had happened in the past few years. She remembered all the hell she went through trying to get into that college, The hardships of living up to the standerd of the school and how hard it was to make friends there.
But she does remember the young man who she thought about going out with.

When that thought hit her Serena sat there and thought back to the night he had kissed her and what had happened.

Flashback
"You know Serena I think you're beautiful"
"Thanks Adam"
"No really...I think you are the most beautiful thing to walk this planet"
"Have you seen everything that walks this planet?"
"Well...No...You know you make it very hard to give you a complement"
"Yeah well thats what happens when you have your heart broken then handed to you in peices"
"You want to talk about it?"
"No not really"
"Oh...Okay I guess thats fine but I want you to know that I'm here for you and if you ever need me I'm always going to be around"
"Thanks Adam that really means a lot to me"
"No problem...So where does the lovely ladie want to go?"
'Hmmm...I'm not sure why don't you pick?"
"Well do you like Japanese food?"
"Why yes...Yes I do"
"Then it's settled we'll go to this little place called Little Japan"
"Awesome sounds great"

When Serena and Adam got to the place they were seated and he started to tell her about his family.

"Yeah so my parents were both awesome and I loved them so much...It was their idea to send me to this place and I'm glad they did because it brought me to you"

Serena Smiled.

"Oh did I tell you about my little brother Serena? Well I'm sure I didn't. His name is Bobby. And I swear he is the coolest kid you'll ever meet. He is in to everything you can think of...Especially girls."

"Well Adam he sounds like a really cool little kid"
"Oh he is...So are you going to tell me about your family or do I have to keep going on about mine?"
"Well my mom is the best cook you'll ever meet I mean I swear she's better than anyone I've ever met. My favorite thing that she makes would have to be her Lemon Pie. I mean it's to die for. My dad is like a normal dad trying to protect his baby girl even though I'm not a baby anymore. And I also have a little brother and his name is Sammy. He drove me up the wall everyday but in the end I still loved him everyday."
"Well I hope to someday meet your family Serena"
"Oh they would love you"
"Everyone loves me"
"Getting a little to high on yourself arn't you?
"Yeah I guess I am"

After that conversation Serena and Adam had a great meal and talked the entire time. After dinner Serena and Adam decided it was late and that they should get home. Adam drove her home and walked her to the door.

"Well Serena I had a great night"
"Yeah me too"
"So would you want to do this again sometime?"
"I guess that would be possible"
'Great I'll see you later"
"Okay good night"
"Oh Serena one more thing"

Adam turned around grabbed Serena's arms and kissed her sensless. He was so into it that he couldn't tell that he was slamming her into the wall because of the force he was using. Serena finally slapped him and that got his attention.

"What was that for?"
"You not caring about me enough to respect me enough to NOT DO THAT" She finished in a scream.
"Well I thought it was a good idea"
"Well it wasn't and on second thought I don't think another date will be possible."
"Fine"

With that he walked away and after that night Serena didn't see him again even to this day.
End flashback

When Serena was done thinking about that she noticed that it was already getting dark. She decided to go to Rei's house. When she got out of the garden she looked across the lake and sure enough the couple was still there kissing. Serena wondered how they go through the day not being lip locked. When she looked hard enough she realized the couple was none other than Molly and Melvin. Serena smiled at the thought of them finally getting together.

When Serena got to the temple her ears were blasted with nothing but laughter and she was still on the stairs. When she got closer she could hear Darien's voice also. When she opened the door everybody went silent. Serena smiled and so did everyone else. Once she got in Serena walked over to Darien and sat on his lap. As soon as she felt his strong arms around her she realized that this is where she belonged...Not in some fancy school...But right here in his arms and right here with her friends.

"I love you guys"
"We love you to Serena"
