Chapter 3: We Need A Plan

When Serena fianlly reached her house, she quietly went up to her room a laid down for a while. All she could think about was Darian and how to tell him, since he doesn't seem to be returning her calls and letters lately. 'What if he's found someone else? NO, no way. Darian wouldn't do that. He loves me and he will return to me. Won't he? Yes, of course he will! He promised!' Whilestaring down at the promise ring that Darian had given her before he left for America the first time; she started thinking back to the last time she and Darian were together.

FLASH BACK

It was the day before he left, and they were siting in the park together talking and watching the sunset. Serena was hanging on his arm and resting her head on his shoulder.

"So, you're really leaving tomorrow?" Serena asked sounding a bit depressed. She tried to hide it but Darian could easily tell that she was sad.

"Yeah," he replied in a soft voice, "But if you think about it, a year isn't really that long. It will be over before we know it, and as soon as I'm finished; I'll come back to you. And I'll hold you in my arms, and never let you go."

"You promise?" Serena asked looking up at him with her big blue eyes showing nothing but hope and love.

"I promise." Darian said as he lifted his arms up and wrapped them around Serena, embracing her closely and tightly. "I love you Serena, and I'll always love you forever and ever. No matter how far apart we are, you'll always be in my heart."

"And you in mine." With her hands on his chest, she looked up at Darian and gazed into his gorgious stormy blue eyes. Darian at the same time looked down at Serena and gazed longingly into her big, beautiful, deep blue eye. Both of their hearts her beating rapidly now. She saw him tilting his head to move in and kiss her, so she closed her eyes and tilted her head to give him better access to her awaiting lips. When their lip touched they felt the love and passion within each other. Though they didn't know it, at that time they were both wishing that time would just.

END FLASH BACK

Serena sighed at the memory. Then promply drifted off to sleep dreaming of Darian.

Back at the Crown Arcade; the girls and Andrew are talking about Serena moving and what would happen when Darian got back.

"I can't believe Serena is actually moving. There's gotta be something we can do!" cried Mina.

"Hey Rei, why doesn't Serena just move in with you for a while? I'm sure there's some room at the temple." asked Ami enthusiastically.

Mina and Lita both shot up out of their seats. "That's a great idea Ami!" Mina cried out happily.

"Yeah! How about it Rei?" asked Lita.

Rei's expression saddened even more. "I would if i could you guys, but the temple is being renovated, and grandpa has been wigging out lately. I don't think it would be a good idea to have Serena move in with me. Sorry." Rei sighed feeling useless because she couldn't help her best friend.

"What about your place Lita?"

"I can't. My landlord won't allow it. Sorry." Lita sighed feeling useless as well.

"We already know Mina and Ami can't do it because of their parents, and Andrew can't do it because he's already got two roomates and doesn't have anymore room." This time everyone sighed feeling useless.

"Come on you guys, THINK!" yelled Mina. "We need a plan!"

It's 2:40 a.m. and I am so way past tired. Hope you guys enjoyed this. Please review and let me know what you think so far.
