Chapter 8

You do?

"Friends?" she asked as she looked at him in the eye. Her eyes held those of hopefulness. She wanted him to say yes. But she wouldn't mind if he asked for more. But she knew that her thoughts and desires were worthless.

Darien looked at her hopeful eyes and couldn't refuse. Who could refuse the most beautiful eyes? They were almost controlling him. But he couldn't tell her his feelings; she wouldn't want anything to do with a guy who impregnated her. He smiled at her. He couldn't help it. She was just too beautiful.

"Yes, friends." He said as took her hand and shook it firmly yet gently. They both liked the feeling of their hand touch. He had to look away. If he didn't he will all the control he got and he would kiss her. He didn't want to lose the friendship he just earned from her to break without starting it yet.

He looked away from her and moved in his sit uncomfortably. Would she okay if he asked her? Would she think he was trying to use their friendship to get to her and Damien? Would she say okay? He took a deep breath and looked at Serena?

"Um…Serena?" he looked at her nervously as brushed his hand through his hair. She looked at him. She nodded giving telling him to continue. "Can I hold Damien?" he asked looking anywhere but her eyes. He didn't want to see her when she said no.

She looked at him taken aback by his question. What ever she was expecting, this was defiantly not it. She smiled and took Damien from where he was sleeping comfortably in her hand. She slowly, not to wake him up, gave him to Darien. Darien held Damien like glass. His face looked proud and more mature as he was looking at Damien. He smiled softly at the sleeping infant in his hand. He couldn't believe this was his son.

Serena looked at Darien as his face soften as he held Damien. She smiled to herself. She thought they looked very handsome. She was happy that they will always have a part of them and they a part of her.

On Monday, Serena walk up feeling the sun on her face. She got up and walked to the bathroom to take her shower. She came out after 20 minutes. She brushed her hair, and walked to Damien's room to see him awake. She smiled lovingly at him and picked him up so she could clean him. She took out a clean cloth and started to clean his skin with warm water so he wouldn't get cold. After a couple of minutes, she fixed the water in the tub to a good temperature and slowly started cleaning him up. As soon as the water touched his skin Damien started crying like there was no tomorrow. (AN: Even though I've never had a child, I know that most children don't like water.)

Serena walked back to Damien's room. He was sleeping after his long bath. She gently put him on the soft couch that was there and started dressing him up being careful as not to wake him up.

After 15 minutes Serena walked to the kitchen to find her mother making some breakfast. "Good morning, mom." She greeted cheerfully as she walked to her and kissed her on the check. She sate on one of the chairs, waiting for the food to come.

"Hello dear. Did you sleep well?" she asked as she gave Serena scrambled egg and toast.

"Yeah, I slept good." She looked up from where she was eating and looked at her mother. "Mom, would you be able to take care of Damien for me today?" she asked as she took a bit out of her toast.

"Oh, dear. I have to go out all day. I would have taken him if I can, but dear, I can't." she said giving Serena and apologetic look.

"Don't worry about it, mom. I'll take him to school I guess. Nothing will happen." She said as she reassured her mother.

"Are you sure dear?"

"Yes, mom." With that Serena finished her breakfast and went upstairs to get Damien. He was still sleeping so she carefully put him on the stroller and went to school saying bye to her mother.

Darien woke up feeling a little tense. The image of Serena and Darien filled his mind. The thought of Damien made him smile. He was happy that he could at least be Serena's friend. He knew it would be a torture for him, being there with her but no being able to touch her or kiss like he wanted. He felt like puling his hair. He brushed his hand through his moped hair and walked to the bathroom to get ready for the day. He wondered if he would see Serena. Would they still bump into each other?

He took his shower and changed into hi daily cloth.

On his way to collage Darien thought was driving his car to school when he saw Serena pushing a stroller down the sidewalk. He felt guilty. It was not fair that she had to take care of Damien when it was both, their responsibility. He slowed down to be she was walking and rolled the mirror for the passenger sit.

"Hey, Serena." He called, getting her attention. "Come on in. I'll give you a ride to school if you want." He said when she stood in front of the passenger sit door.

She smiled softly. "Hey, thanks for the offer. I'll take you on that." She said. They were not yet easy with each other. She was trying to lighten the mood up. She tried to pick the stroller but it was heavy for her with Damien in it. Darien seeing this opened the door and got out.

"I'll do that. You go inside I'll put him in the car." He said as he lifted Damien easily and put him in the back sit. He put the sit belt for Damien. After making sure his safety. He walked back to his door and opened it and got inside. He looked at Serena from the corner of his eye. She looked perfect in his car. 'Oh, who am I kidding? She wouldn't even turn and look at me.' He said to himself as h e drove of in the direction of her school.

They drove in an uncomfortable silent. Being unable to take any longer Darien cleared his throat. "Hey, Serena?" he asked breaking the tension. She turned around and looked at him. "Maybe, I was wondering if I could maybe, you know, look after Damien for you." He stuttered as he asked her.

Serena thought for a second and smiled lightly. "Yeah, I think you could see him. He is after all your son." After she said that she felt her check go red. 'Me and my big mouth.' She thought. She didn't see the happy smile Darien had when she said that. She was too busy looking out the window. She turned to him and smiled softly, "I would need it sometimes. Today my parent won't be home so I have to take him home."

Darien looked at her from the corner of his eye. "I'm sorry Serena. I'm sorry that you had to go through ever thing alone. I'm sorry that I put you through all this. I know we were both drunk, but I should have tried to stop us." He said sincerely as he apologized.

She smiled at him. "It's not your fault. It's too late already. We can't change what we did. What's done is done." She said.

Darien looked at her surprised. She was acting more mature. Maybe she has changed. She had become more mature.

They stopped when they reached her school. He got out of the car and jogged to the other side. He first opened Serena's door before she could, and opened Damien's side. He noticed that Damien was still asleep. He is a heavy sleeper. 'Just like his mother' said a small voice. Darien smiled and slowly took Damien's stroller out. Then put him in the stroller and shut the door. He turned to Serena; "I'll help you 'till your class." He said as he started to push Damien to the school gate.

Serena looked around to see many students looked at her. More like staring at her. She quickly caught up with Darien and started to walk next to him.

Darien looked at her discomfort and felt his heart break for her. She was suffering more than she should. "Can I come after school and pick you up. Maybe I can take Damien to the park." He said as he lifted Damien's stroller with ease when he was going up the stairs.

"Yeah, it's alright." She said. She looked up when they were in the school. More students were looking at her. She looked down not wanting to look at the student as they entered the school. She was feeling a little unease. They walked to her homeroom. She stood up not knowing what to do. She just stood there looking down at the ground.

"Well, I guess I'll see you later?" he asked as he gave the stroller to Serena. "I'll pick you up at 3:30." He said as he walked to the door waving over his shoulder. She slowly turned to her classmates and smiled nervously as she walked to class and went to the teacher's desk.

Ms. H just looked at Serena as if she had grown another head.

"Um… good morning Ms. H. I was wondering I could talk to you." She said weakly not looking at her teacher right on the eye. Getting a nod from her teacher, she continued. "My parents won't be home so, I was wondering I could have Damien in class." She said nervously.

To say Ms. H. was shocked was the least. How can Serena have a child while I don't even have it? I'm getting old here but I'm don't even have a boyfriend. She smiled reassuringly, "Of course. I hope there will not be any noise though." She said sternly yet gently.

Serena smiled gratefully at hr teacher. She didn't know Ms. H. could be this nice. She bowed politely, "Thank you, Ms. H." she said as she walked away from the desk and sat on her chair. She looked over at Damien and realized that he was still sleeping. 'Wow, this guy can sleep.' She said smiling softly.

Slowly the class filled and students started to get to their classes. It was a little uncomfortable for Serena about she tried not to get too worried about it.

Finally at lunch, Serena took Damien to the playground where she always sits. She sat on the ground and took Damien out of the stroller. Thankfully he didn't cry in class. She was happy that her and Darien were getting along. It was quiet interesting to know that they were, for once, being friendly with each other. When she started to feed Damien she was startled by Mina, Lita, and Ami. They walked to where she was sited. She smiled at them. "Are you trying to give me a heart attack?" she teased as they sate next to her. She preceded feeding Damien. He was quiet. He didn't even cry at all.

"Sorry," Lita said sheepishly. Her eyes brightened up and asked, "How come you came early today?"

"Oh, um… Darien gave me a ride here." She said as she felt a blush crept its way to her checks

The others looked at each other. "Oh?" Mina asked.

After school, everyone was going home and she was by the gate when she saw Darien come to where she was standing. She gave him a small smile as she walked to him. He smiled at her and took Damien so he could put him at the back sit.

They went to the park and sat were a bench was kept. She sat down and looked at Darien. He was holding Damien close to him. He looked happy. If only he would every see her more than just the mother of his child. She wanted to be his. She sighed and looked at the lake. The sun was making it look more beautiful.

Darien sat down next to her and looked at her. She seemed to be thinking. What could she be thinking now? He sighed he wanted to hold her and make her feel all right.

Serena looked at Darien and met his eyes. She felt like she could look at him all day and all night. She felt herself get closer to him as he too leaned to her.

Their lips were centimeters away as they looked at each other. She thought she saw fireworks when she felt his lips touch hers. It was soft and warm.

Darien felt he could die anytime. And he wouldn't mind either. Not when her lips were kissing him like this. It felt like heaven. He kissed her softly, he felt her respond to his kiss and he felt like his heart was going to blast. He slowly put his hand around her pulling her closer. He wanted to make sure that he wasn't dreaming. He's hand made their way to her waist. He pulled her to his lap. He slowly deepened the kiss by tracing her lips with his tong asking for more access. She shyly opened her mouth for him to explore her. She sighed with content into his mouth. He tasted like chocolate. What more does she need now? She had Damien, and now, she was kissing Darien. Her hands were around his neck pulling him closer. She wanted to feel him. The kiss was intense that they almost didn't hear Damien cry for attention.

They abruptly parted form each other. Serena felt a blush crept to her checks as she realized their position. She slowly stood up and walked to Damien. She picked him up and held him in her arms. She hummed a little music lulling into sleep. When she put him back, she felt two warm arms pull her against a hard chest. Darien turned her around and looked into her eyes,

"I love you."
