Hidden Love - Part 4.

"You what?" Serena whispered, unbelievly.
"I love you, Serena," Darien whispered.
"You...you do?"
He nodded.
On impulse, she kissed him full on the lips.
Darien was surprised, but then held her close to him and
enjoyed the moment, just as Martha and David entered the room.
"Oh, isn't that sweet!" Martha squeeled. "I just *have* to
get the camera." She dashed off to the study and grabbed the camera.
She came back into the room and took a picture.
The flash of the camera brought Serena and Darien back from
their own world of two, to the real world.
"This time it wasn't under mistletoe, you two!" Martha said.
Serena blushed furiously, as she stood up and cleared her
throat. "I...I have to go now," she said as she ran up the stairs,
two at a time.
"What was that all about, son," David said as he sat down
next to Darien.
"Um...nothing," Darien said, flashing him a smile. "I've
got some homework to do," he said as he left the room.
"David," Martha said. "How can Darien have homework when
it is the holidays?"
"I don't know dear, I just don't know."
When Serena had entered her room, she opened her diary
and started writing it, but before that, she wrote on the
brown paper (that was covering it) 'I Love Darien.' And
repeated it all over.
Dear Diary,
The most fabulous and worst things happened today. I'll write about
the good news first. I kissed Darien! I can't believe it, but I
did, and it felt *so* good. He's a great kisser too. He said he
loved me, and I absolutly love him to. Yep, I love him, and I was
stupid not to realise it, but I love him with all my heart...
At the same time, Darien was writing in his diary.
December 22nd,
I love her! I love her! I REALLY LOVE HER! She even kissed me,
and it was like heaven. When I said I loved her, it felt like
I had said it before, for some odd reason. I now have
something to look forward to these holidays; Serena.
Darien.
After Darien had written in his diary, he decided to
watch television in the rumpus. He noticed that Serena's
door was closed.
BRING BRING! The phone rang, and Darien answered it
on the phone next to him.
"Hello?" he said. "Serena? May I know who is speaking
please...okay, hold on." he said. He covered the mouth piece
with his hand and yelled, "Serena! It's for you!"
Serena came out of her room, somewhat slowly, and
took to phone from Darien.
"Hello?" she said. "Mum! How are you...?" She was
suddenly silent as she heard bad news over the phone.
Darien was silently watching Serena, as her
expression changed from happy to sad.
"No..." Serena said. "Okay, bye." She put the phone
down, and sat on the lounge, next to Darien.
"I have to go back home," she said suddenly, staring
at the floor.
"Why?" Darien said.
"My grandmother died, and I have to attend the
funeral."
"Oh...I'm sorry," Dairen said, softly.
They sat in an uncomfortable silence for a while,
as Serena prepared what she was going to say. "You know how
you said you love me," she said, hesitantly.
"Yes, I do."
"I think it's best for us if we just are friends,
and not have a relationship," she said, her eyes fixed
to the floor.
"But, why?" Darien said, sitting up. "I'll write
to you everyday, I'll send you e-mails..." he pleaded.
"No, Darien. We'll both just get hurt if we have
a long-distance relationship."
"No, that won't happen," Darien said, taking hold
of her hands, forcing her to face him. "I love you, and I
would never hurt you," he said.
Serena stared at his love filled eyes. "That's
what everyone says," she said, as she stood up. "It's
best for both of us."
She walked down to the family room and told
Martha and Daivd the news.
Early next morning, Martha and David drove Serena
to the airport.
"Thank you for everything," Serena said to Martha
and David, giving them a hug.
"It's a pity that you have to leave so early,"
Martha said. "Make sure you come back, okay."
Serena nodded. "Say goodbye to Sam and Darien
for me."
"We will," David said. "Have a safe trip and
merry Cristmas."
"Merry Cristmas and thanks again." She took her
hand luggage and went to board her plane.
She sat in her seat, and looked for her
medication in her small bag she had, but she found something
else. A small package and a red rose.
She opened the pack and there was a necklace with
a rose above a cresent moon as the pendant. There also was
a note that read:
Dear Serena,
I'll never forget you, and I will write to you always,
no matter what. Please don't forget me, and always wear
this necklace.
Merry Cristmas and a happy new year.
I love you,
Darien.
Serena took the necklace and attached it around her
neck. She read the note again, and smiled sadly as she
realised their hidden love.
THE END
Oh no! It's ended! Well, yes it has ended, but I *do* have
other ideas to write a HIDDEN LOVE II. If you want to see
if they ever get together, e-mail me, and I'll write a
Hidden Love II.
But it depends on how much mail I get. If you want me
to continue, put the subject line as CONTINUE.
Thank you for reading this, now I'll get lost so you can
enjoy your day.
C ya! Roo.

'Room-mates and Soul-mates'
Based on the first season of Sailor Moon, Serena and
Darien are in Sydney uni and are room-mates. Yes, there is
such thing as the Sailor Scouts and Tuxedo Mask, but
will they ever find out their alter egos?
'Falling In Love Again'
After Darien broke up with Serena, he decided to go overseas,
to start a new life. Eight years later, they meet at Lita's
Cafe in Sydney where Serena works as a waitress. What will
happen? Will they fall in love again? Or is one of them
already engaged...
