Chapter 02 : The kiss
'like an Angel !'
Prince Endymion could not help but dream about this girl that just passed his way. He was back at the well guarded residence of his Uncle Charles.
Endymion was the heir to the throne of England. His father, King Darius wanted his son to get used to all the protocols and, at age 18 sent him far away, to Australia, in a little town where the King's brother, Prince Charles had established himself.
Endymion had always loved his Uncle so he was quite happy to go and live there for some time. Somehow, boredom had taken place as his Uncle was a real teacher and this was making Endymion go mad.
That is why whenever possible, Endymion runs away on a horse to some quiet little place in order to paint. Endymion inherited from his mother's artistic skills and was determined to pursue in this field which Uncle Charles did not quite like.
With no friends whatsoever, Endymion was now quite attracted to this beautiful girl who had tamed his horse.
'Angel, just an angel !'
~*~*~*~
-"Serena, will you stop daydreaming like this" Ilene shouted bringing Serena back to her senses.
-"Did you say anything mum?" a surprised Serena asked her mother
-"Dinner's ready, that's is if you're hungry" Ilene continued "Unless you want to skip your meal and go straight to bed"
-"I'm tired mum, I'll go and sleep" Serena answered and headed towards the door.
Phoebe and Isabelle were wandering what was wrong with their baby sister....
-"Serena would never skip a meal !" Isabelle commented
-"She must be in love or something" Phoebe giggled
-"What, my little baby in love !!!!" Ken shrieked out "With who? I'll go and kill that person straight away"
Everyone started laughing at Ken's over protectiveness. Indeed, by now, Phoebe and Isabelle were used to see that their own father preferred their adoptive sister. Phoebe resented it more but tried to hide this as not to let her father feel bad.
Ilene knew about Phoebe's jealousy towards Serena but never said anything about it.
-"She just may be tired" Isabelle tried to calm her father a little
-"That reminds me... where were you this afternoon young lady?" Ken inquired
-"Dad ... I..." Isabelle was now blushing
-"My children have grown so much !" Ken exclaimed. "I just hope the two of you are waiting until marriage to..."
-"... Dad what do you think" Isabelle shouted.
-"I know, you're a good girl" Ken said nodding his head... "with the education we've given our three kids, we have nothing to worry about"
Ilene was laughing as well at this. Somehow, she had the strange feeling something would happen to this family of hers she is trying so much to protect. Ilene always had some psychic power which came from her mother's side. The first girl of the family always would get it and it was obvious that Isabelle had a few intuitions as well.
The rest of the dinner went of fine and they all though Serena was sleeping in her room
~*~*~*~
Serena had got changed into her night wear. She was indeed not going to sleep but she could not help but think about him ... 'Darien'.
For some reason, the pendant started to glow around Serena and she fell asleep... a deep sleep and she did not wake up until the next morning.
~*~*~*~
'What a strange dream' Serena was thinking.
Indeed she dreamt of a kingdom on the moon 'yeah right, just as if such a thing could exist' of princesses and princes, of queens and kings... of a small baby that had been just presented to the whole moon kingdom... to the lives of the parents of this baby...
However everything seemed to be so vague that Serena could not quite remember what all this was about. She had the feeling it was more familiar than a simple dream.
As she got dressed and came out of her room, she found her mother cooking away lunch. As Ilene saw Serena, she scolded the young girl
-"Just look at the time young lady ! Isabelle and Phoebe are selling off the milk by themselves !"
-"I'm sorry mum" Serena apologized "I just did not wake up"
-"Obviously ! we all tried to wake you up but nothing seemed to work" Ilene then added "At least, you can go and give your father's lunch a little earlier today"
-"Of course Mum" Serena grabbed the basket and ran as quick as she could to give the basket to her father. Even though Serena was really eager to go and see her father, the real reason of her being so happy was that she was hoping to see this mysterious Darien again.
~*~*~*~
As Serena came near the lake, she did not see him there. 'What was I hoping for ?' Serena was thinking to herself 'I'd better forget about him' Serena sadly but surely continued her way and came to the fields.
-"Father ! here's your lunch" shouted Serena
-"Hey that's my baby girl" said Ken putting his arms around her and glaring at the other young farmers.
Serena could not help but laugh to see how protective her father was of her
-"You better get going or else I might end up killing a few of them" Ken added to his girl
-"Alright dad !" Serena waved her father bye and went back towards her house
~*~*~*~
Lost in her dreams, she did not notice that someone's been observing her in the woods and suddenly out of nowhere he grabs her. Serena screamed and this made her aggressor laugh.
'That laugh !' Serena though as the aggressor let loose
As she turned around she could not believe her eyes "Darien?" she asked so cautiously as if she was scared he was not real
Endymion took her hand and then pushed her towards him. He put his arms around her and murmured in her ear "I was not sure you'd come Serena"
-"Darien, I ..."
Before she could finish, Darien bent down and kissed her lips. Serena was surprised but gave in quite fast. The truth was that she did not know what to do. Endymion realized her inexperience.
As he broke off the kiss, Serena was blushing heavily "... I ... you ... never ... kissed" Serena was trying to get the words right but failed totally in doing so
Endymion laughed which made Serena go full red
-"You're a real angel, you know that ?"
-"Me?" Serena asked him surprised "Why?"
Endymion did not answer but touched her hair , her long silky hair. Serena got lost into his eyes. She seemed to be drowning in them.
-"What are you doing to me Darien" she asked him
-"I could ask you the same question" Endymion told her
-"I have to go Darien" she told him much to his disappointment "my mom will get worried"
-"Can I walk you home a little" Darien asked the girl
Serena nodded happily. Her first kiss ! Her father would kill her and him for this Serena thought and giggled
-"What's so funny ?" Endymion asked her
-"Well, I was just thinking of what would my father do if he was to find out about all this !"
-"And what would he do?" Endymion asked amused
-"He'd probably kill you straight away ! Daddy so protective"
-"I can understand that" Endymion told her before adding "I would not want any other man looking at you the way I am"
Serena looked into his eyes. He seems to genuine and eager to protect her. He suddenly stopped and put his arms around her as though to prove his words. "I really like you even though I've just met you yesterday"
He then kissed her palm and told her: "I better get going ! Please come tonight to the spot we met ?"
And without waiting for an answer, Endymion just left leaving Serena in a daze
'Darien ...'
Serena came back to her senses minutes later and walked back home in a very content mood.
