Chapter 5

What happens now?

Serena sat in front of her mother. Her eyes were still filled with confusion and uncertainty. They were going to tell her father, and she was not sure if she was going to like his reaction. But right know the only thing that was running through her mind was: 'Pregnant… slept with Darien. Going to have his baby.' She sat there with no sign of life. She was frozen to her seat.

"Honey, are you alright. It's going to be all right. We will do anything we can to help." Her mother soothed. "Have you decided if you are going to keep the baby?" Ilene asked.

That question got her attention. "Mom, I know I'm young and that I'm not responsible, but I want to keep the baby. Even it is HIS baby." Serena answered. She had no intention of killing a baby who had anything to do with her mistake.

"Are you going to tell the father?" Ilene looked at her daughter. Serena hadn't told her yet who the father was, but one day she would. She hoped. She had a feeling that Serena knew who that person was, and just didn't want to talk about him. She also had a feeling that he might be closer than she thought.

Serena's head snapped up at that question. Was she going to tell him? What if he said he didn't want it? No, she was going to take care of the baby by herself. There is no way she was going to let him see it. What about Ray? Serena's eyes filled with tears at the thought of her friend. What would she think of her now? Would she still be her friend? Would she ever forgive her? She didn't think so. No, no one was ever going to find out who the father was. Not even her parents. "No, mom. No one will know who it is. Not even you. No." she repeated to herself.

At that moment her father walked into the house and called out to his wife. Ilene walked to him and gave him a peck on the cheek. "Hello, dear. How are you?" she said as she took his briefcase.

He sat on the couch and noticed Serena sitting on the floor in front of him. "Hello, Serena. What's the matter? You don't look too happy." He observed as he saw his daughter's back stiffen. He looked at his wife and saw that she was avoiding eye contact with him.

"Dear, Serena has something to tell you. Something has happened and you should know about it." Ilene said, looking at her daughter.

Serena turned around and looked at her father. He was looking at her questioningly. He was confused. What could be so serious that they can't even look at him in the eye. "Dad, I made a mistake. The day I went to the party…" Serena told him about the drink, about Darien and everything. Including her pregnancy. Ken's face was getting redder ever minute. He was very angry. "… I'm sorry dad. I didn't know what was going on. Please forgive me." She pleaded. She saw his emotions change very quickly. She wasn't sure if she should be scared or happy.

"Who did this to you? Who dared to touched you?" he shouted out of nowhere. Serena was surprised by his reaction. Whatever she was expecting, this wasn't it. "I'll kill him! How could he?" Ken, went on and on with his threats. Serena and Ilene exchanged looks.

"Dad, please. It's not just his fault. It was mine too. I didn't know I would get drunk. I'm sorry." She said as she looked at the ground. What if he said to give away the baby? He wouldn't say that. Would he? She wasn't sure anymore. Everything was a mess. She was going to have a baby, and she was only 15. She was going to be a mother.

Her father calmed down. How could she defend others and blame herself. His eyes softened at the thought of his little girl being a mother.

That night Serena was sleeping on her bed, when a familiar beep started. She woke up and took out her communicator. "Yes, Moon here." She said sleepily.

Mars's face appeared on the small screen, "Meatball head, there is a monster attack in the park. We need Moon now." Mars said, and she was out of the screen right away.

Serena transformed and crawled out of her room through the window. She ran as fast as she could. When she got closer to the park, she saw a lot of attacks, and she started running to the light. There was, Jupiter, Mercury, Mars, and Venus. Mercury and Venus where on the ground, nursing their wounds. Mars and Jupiter were fighting like crazy. She ran without her usual statements and pulled her energy to attack the monster. She didn't see as one of his tentacles went out and headed for her. It wrapped its tentacles around her waist. She screamed as it sucked the energy out of her. The only thought that was running in her head was the baby. Is it okay? Did that monster hurt him? All of a sudden, a rose was thrown, cutting the tentacle to pieces. She fell to the ground clutching her waist. "Sailor Moon, now." Tuxedo mask shouted to her.

Sailor Moon got up to her feet shakily and attacked with her all might. "Moon Tiara Magic!" She shouted as she threw her tiara at the monster. She didn't see the attack he threw before he was hit, but someone did, and he flipped to the ground and removed her from harms way as it was about to hit her. She looked up and smiled at him gratefully. "Thanks," she said. He put her to her feet and bid them good-bye and flipped away.

Sailor Moon, from her energy loss, collapsed to the ground. The scouts ran to her and checked her pulse. They sighed a sigh of relief. But Mercury took out her computer and scanned Serena. She saw another life in her. Her face paled at what she saw. She knew her computer was always right. 'Oh my, God. How could have this happened? Is this why she had been acting like this for the past week?' Mercury's thoughts were interrupted as she saw Serena move. She looked at her with shock.

Serena slowly opened her eyes and saw Mercury looking at her. She sighed, and she knew that it was time tell them the truth. But before she could tell Mercury started speaking. "Why didn't you tell us? Don't you trust us? Aren't we good enough?" she asked.

"No, it's not like that. I just found out this morning." Serena answered as she looked at the ground. She didn't want to see the look Mercury was giving her.

"Uh… you lost us," Jupiter said looking confused. "Did we miss something?" she asked looking from Sailor Moon to Mercury.

"Yes, I have to tell you something." Sailor Moon said as she de-transform. "I'm pregnant." She whispered.

The others looked at her with shock. "For a minute there, I thought you said you were pregnant." Laughed Jupiter, not believing Serena. Looking at Serena's serious face, she wasn't sure anymore. "You're just joking, right?" she asked looking at her.

Serena turned her head away from her friends. "No." she whispered. 'No,' she repeated for herself. 'But I wish I was.' She thought brokenly.

Serena looked back at them and saw them with tears. 'Why are they looking at me like that? Are they ashamed of me?' she thought frantically. "I'm sorry you guys. It was the night of the party." She said trying to answer their unspoken question.

"Oh my God. We thought you went home and left. It's our fault. We should have waited for you. Oh Serena. Who? Who was it?" The now de-transformed Ami asked, looking guilty.

"I can't... I can't tell you. I don't think I can." Serena said, looking at the ground. "It's not that I don't trust you, its just that, well, I don't think you should know about him." She finished as she stood up and prepared to leave. She turned around and looked at her friends, "I'm sorry I've shamed you. You don't have to still be my friend if you don't want to be." She said looking at each one of them.

Ray, who had been quiet, finally spoke. "You will always be our friend. We will be there for you, no matter what. We will always be your friends." She said as she walked to her friend and hugged her tightly.

'How long? How long would you be my friend?' she thought. She hugged her back with no emotion in it. She sighed and moved away. "I should get going. I'm tired." She said and started walking away.

Her friends looked at her retreating back. All of their thoughts were the same. 'Who is the father?'

That's it for this chapter. I hope you like it. I've improved my spelling and grammar.
