June 30

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Star's Memory~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

'He's just sitting there staring off into space.' Serena sat down beside Endy and whispered in his ear, "What are you thinking about?" He turned and took her head into his hands and kissed her very, deeply.

"You Star," Serena froze, "I was thinking about you Star," he finished.

Serena stood up and looking into his midnight blue eyes said, "How could you?" Then she walked away refusing to cry until she reached her room, and there on her bed she cried.

About three minutes later there was a knock on her door. She sat up, dried her eyes then went to the door. It was Endymion. "We need to talk."

"I know, come in." Once he was in her room, she motioned him to sit down.

"Let me start," Endymion opened his mouth, but then closed it. "First be patient and try not to get mad at me." Endymion shakes his head in agreement. "Right before I turned fourteen, I decide I wanted to go to the village and talk to the villagers. Of course if I went dressed in this (her fancy princess dressed and Royalty hairdo) I would be recognized. So I dressed as a villager, and with Kyle's help, Star was created." Endymion had a look of shock on his face. "Kyle told everyone I was taking a nap, so no ones expected a thing. Then when I met you Endy, I wanted to tell you, but then Star ran into you or rather Darien. Then you started meeting her and talk all the time. You seemed to like me as Star better and I didn't want to tell you after I figured that out because, I also figured you wouldn't want me to go to the village anymore. And I love going there, so I'm not really mad at you, just disappointed. You're probably mad at me for keeping this from you." Serena looked down at her feet waiting for Endymion to say something. But he never did. He got up, from the chair, walked over to Serena, lifted her chin up and kissed her sweetly and lovingly.

"I love you Serena-Star." Serena let out a soft short laugh over what Endymion called her.

"And I love you Endy!" Then they kissed again, and their kisses continued.

At first they were soft and sweet but they grew deeper, hungrier, more passionate, until...

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~End of dream~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Serena woke up with a start. She found herself leaning on Darien, where she had once been asleep.

"What's wrong, Angel?" Darien asked noticing how fast she woke up.

"Nothing. Where did everyone go?"

"Home, you fell asleep as soon as Ryan started talking. They left about half an hour ago. Ryan went out somewhere."

"Most likely with Birdie. What about Kyle?"

"He went to the park, I think. Why don't you eat something, then go back to bed?"

"Sounds good." As soon as she stood up, she fell back on the couch, and into Darien's arms. "Um, Darien can you get me something?"

"Yes, just wait here, I think Ryan left some Chicken Noodle Soup out."

Within minutes Darien was back at Serena's side. "Do you want me to bring it in here to you when it's done?"

"No, I'll eat it at the bar, Ryan would kill me if I spilled it in here. You'll just have to help me walk." She tried standing up again, but once again she fell into Darien, or rather he caught her.

"I have a better plan." He picked her up, gently, and carried her to the bar, where he set her down on a stool.

"Thanks." Once the soup was done, Darien poured her some into a bowl, grabbed a spoon and gave it to Serena. She ate it slow, as if it was sickening to eat.

"What's the matter?" Darien asked.

"I can't do this!" Serena got up and walked towards her bedroom, but she collapsed on the couch, because she got dizzy. Darien came and sat on the floor next to her.

"What can't you do?"

"Act like I know what's going on. It's all happening so fast. I can't act like I never left, like anything ever happened. I've changed, and I can be a good leader, but not by myself like last time."

"Serena I'm here to help you." He said it so softly and it surprised Serena.

She sat up and looked at him, then he looked at her and they both saw wanting in the others eyes.

Darien got up and kissed Serena. It wasn't short and sweet, but lovingly deep. "I love you Serena-Star." Darien said when they stopped the kiss.

Serena froze at first, then kissed him passionately.

While they were kissing they fell back onto the couch. Serena was the one to finally break the kiss to breathe. Darien put soft kisses all over her head and neck.

"We should go into my room," Serena said softly.

Darien stopped a second to look at her. "Are you sure?"

Serena looked him in the eyes and told him, "Darien, I've never stopped loving you!"

Darien slowly picked her up off of the couch and carried her into her bedroom. Shutting the door before laying her on her bed. He took of his shirt then kissed Serena with such a passion; he had been longing to do, since he had met her. As he brought his hand up her side and reached her tee shirt he slowly took it off and dropped it to the floor. While Darien began to kiss Serena there was a knock on the front door.

"Darien I should go get that." He kissed her deeply on her lips, but she pulled away after a minute. "I really have to get that. I'll be right back," she said as she got up and grabbed her shirt as she walked out.

The person left, but there was a piece of paper under the door. Serena picked it up and read it as she walked back to her room and Darien. Darien was waiting in the doorway with his shirt still off.

"What is it Angel?"

"I have to go meet, Ash!"

"Who's Ash, and when do you have to meet?"

"You don't remember Ash?" Darien shook his head no.

"Of course you don't. Anyway, I have to go now, before Kyle or Ryan get home. I'm sorry." She stood on her tiptoes and kissed him. As she turned to go back into her room she thought of something. "Do you want to change and come with me?"

"Why not?" Star pointed to her chair and cloths magically appeared, but then she fell to her knees.

"SERENA?" Darien went over to her.

"I'm fine, just forgot I wasn't suppose to use magic. Go to Ryan's room, take a quick shower if you want, and change." Darien left, and Serena dressed in nice black pants with a cute top. She pulled the sides of her hair up and was still ready before Darien got out of the shower. (Does he take long showers? or Does Serena get ready fast?)

She went to the kitchen and doped the soup, which was now cold, down the sick and the rest in the fridge. Then she put the dirty dishes into the dishwasher.
