MAKING SACRIFICES(EPILOGUE)
BY:JLaLa
The day was nothing less than beautiful. As the sun shone brightly
it's rays broke through the stained glass windows of the church. The
church was small but picturesque. It was painted white and the inside
was neat and cozy with soft wooden pews. Every seat was filled and all
held their breath as the music began. All the people were overjoyed to
finally see the marriage of Darien Chiba and Serena Tsukino. The soft
tune of Pachabel in Canon D filled the air as the bridemaides walked
the aisle. Each in sky blue strapless dressed that went to the floor.
Around each of their creamy necks was a matching scarf that went down
from their back. Two slits were on the side of each dress going up to
mid-thigh. The dress showed their long legs and their small feet that
wore matching sandal heels. In Raye, Lita, Mina, and Ami's hair were
little handmade silk roses strewn about in their hair. Each looked
beautiful in her own way and was made to looked more goddess-like by
their beautiful dresses. Next came the groomsmen. Andrew, Chad (Raye's
husband), Greg (Ami's fiancee), and Sammy walked down the aisle in
white tuxedos. In their breastpocket were white roses and each looked
handsome making the tux work for them in a way. Serving as junior
bridesmade was Mika, Sammy's girlfriend wearing a short baby blue
dress with a matching sash tied around her waist. She held a white
rose bouquet and a crown of roses was in her hair, she winked at Sammy
before joining the other girls. Next came Ilene in a cream dress that
reached to her ankles with pearl buttons. This had been Serena's
present to her on her birthday last month. She thought that this was
best place for her to show it off. On her head was a matching cream
hat with a cream sash around it. Her long blue hair went down her back
and the most beautiful thing that she wore was her lovely smile.
Behind her Mariah, Andrew's four year old daughter threw flowers on
the ground in blue, lace dress and a headband pushing her chestnut
curls back. The excitement in her midnight blue eyes was reflected in
everyone's eyes. Next down the aisle was Darien in white pants, with a
long sleeve dress shirt over the shirt was a white vest and a matching
jacket. Alex walked next to him wearing a little version of Darien's
tuxedo and holding a pillow with the wedding bands on it. When they
got to the front, the violins started to play
"The Wedding March" and everyone stood up. A collective sigh went
around the room as the bride and her father stood at the doorway.
Serena wore a long sleeve wedding gown with tiny pearls sewn around
the neckline in a intricate design. Her skirt was made with toile and
was puffy. In her hair she wore silk made gardenias in her hair.
Connected to the flowers were the veil. Next stood her dad misty eyed
wearing a cream colored tux matching his wife.
Serena's smile was bedazzling and many people looked at her in approval.
She didn't see though for her eyes were on Darien and only him. No one
was there and as he looked at her the feeling was mutual. Memories of
their life together went through their minds and they grinned at each
other. As Serena reached the alter her father hugged her and his eyes
misted for he was giving his only daughter away. She said "I love you
daddy" and joined Darien. The priest, a gray haired, kindly man looked
at them and in their faces he saw looks of undeniable love.
"Dearly beloved", He began. "We're gather here today to join these two
people in only matrimony. When two people love each they become one.
One heart, one mind, and one Soul. The fire that burn in them need not
ever be rekindled for they hold the everlasting light of love for each
other" The priest continued and the couple looked at each other with
deep love and desire for one another. Then there were vows were said
each replying with promise and truth. Now it was time to put on the
rings.
"Rings are symbolic", The priest said. "They are circles and could
never be unbroken. May we say the same for these two young people."
Alex handed the ring to Darien and smiled.
"Darien, repeat after me", The priest instructed. "With this ring,
I thee wed".
"With this ring", Darien said quietly with a voice thick with emotion
looking at Serena's eyes as he slipped the ring on her finger."I thee
wed"
"Now Serena", said the priest. "Say: With this ring, I thee wed"
"With this ring", said Serena in a choked voice as she slipped the ring
on his finger. "I thee wed". Serena looked up at Darien, fresh tears
falling from her joyful eyes. The Senshi were crying happily as Serena's
mom dabbed her eyes.
"I now pronounce you man and wife", The priest said. "Go ahead and kiss
her" The priest said smiling at Darien. Looking at Serena, Darien put his
hands around her waist. Serena put her hand on his face and pulled his
soft lips to hers. Their passionate kiss had people whistling in the
aisles. The music began to play as they walked down the aisle and as
people assembled outside they looked at each other grinning like two
fools in love.
"Darien?", She called and turned to face each other. They stood in
the frame of the doorway not noticing the wedding photographer taking
a picture of them looking into one another's eyes.
"Yeah?"
"I love you", She said and he kissed her hand with her new ring on her
finger.
"Serena?"
"Yeah?"
"I love you too", He answered back and drew her into a kiss. As they
let go they walked outside and were hit with rose petals. A limo
awaited them decorated with a just married sign and tin cans connected
to the back bumper. Before they got in, Serena and her family hugged.
Then Serena's mom hugged Darien and kissed him on the cheek.
"Darien I'm glad Serena married you. You're what I dreamt for her and
more", She said.
"Thanks mom", He said and smiled. He finally had a mom.
"Welcome to the Family", Ken said and embraced Darien finally
accepting him. Sammy hug them both as Mika stood watching happily.
Serena then kissed her son telling him she loved him.
After saying goodbye to Lita, Mina, and Ami, Serena moved to get into
the limo when she saw Raye and went to embrace her.
"I'll see you soon, Raye", She said with gratitude and Raye whispered
something in her ear that made her hugged her friend crazily with
happiness.
"Give me the details when I get back", Serena said quickly and kissed
her friend on her cheek. Before she got in Raye called her.
"Serena, thanks for being my friend", Raye said sincerely
"Thanks for being mine", Serena answered and got into the Limo next to
Darien. As the car pulled away Serena smiled as she lean against her
husband. Her Husband. She liked the sound of that.
"I'm so happy", She said and looked at him. "We're finally married,
I'm got a job as a decorator, you've become top doctor in the hospital,
Alex got's his daddy and Raye's pregnant"
"Raye's pregnant?", Darien said.
"Yup"
"I wonder how Chad will react", He said to her. When they heard Chad
bellowed "I'M GONNA BE A DAD!" Laughing Serena looked back to see Raye
trying to wake a passed out Chad.
"You know what?", She said to Darien.
"What?", He asked looking down at her. She got up and looked at him
happily.
"Life is good" With that she kissed him.
*********************************
1 Year Later...
The apartment had a great charm to it. The furniture matched nicely
with the cream walls. On the fireplace stood picture frames. One of a
couple at their wedding looking at each other obviously in love,
Another of a young boy holding a backpack on his first day of school,
the third was of the young family. A handsome raven haired man, a
adoringly beautiful golden haired woman and a adorable 5 year old
a carbon copy of his dad with blue eyes instead.
Serena sat watching television and smiling happily to herself. Her
business was taking off and Darien had just been awarded Doctor of the
Year award. Alex was in first grade and to their surprise was the
smartest kid in class. Serena decided he must have got it from Darien.
Raye had a baby girl which she named Melanie, she could tell the child
had Raye's temper, the way it cried loud enough to her from the other
side of town! Ami was getting married in two months, Lita was dating a
childhood friend of hers and her resturant was really booming. Mina was
starring in a movie with her current sweetheart. She wrote to Serena
often and was visiting soon. It was ten o'clock and Serena could hear
the door open. Darien entered and Serena threw her arms around his neck.
"Hey babe", He greeted her and they sat on the couch.
"How was your day?", She asked him and took his shoes for him. She laid
against his chest and he wrapped his arms around her slender body.
"The usual", He answered.
"Honey", She began and took out some wall paper samples. "What do you
think about them for the guest room. They were each a different shades
of pink, one with bunnies and the other with crescent moons on it.
He grimaced.
"They're kinda too...pink", He said slowly trying not to hurt her.
She pouted, "Well I thought our baby girl would like it" It didn't
really hit him until he saw the way she put her hand on her stomach.
"You're pregnant?", He said and she smiled at him."Ohmigosh! YOU'RE
PREGNANT!" Serena nodded and he hugged her happily.
"You're definitely not leaving this time, Serena Chiba"
"I wouldn't want to", She said lovingly.
**************************
Nine Months Later....
Serena sat on the hospital looking down at the bundle in her arms.
Around her they were balloons, bouquets of flowers and stuffed animals.
She looked at her daughter and smiled because of her pink fuzzy hair.
It matched her room.Darien then entered with Alex.
"Hi,you guys", She greeted them and kissed Alex on the forehead. "Meet
your sister, Reeny Chiba" He looked down and touched her cheek.
"Hi Reeny", He said softly. "I'm your big brother. I'm gonna teach you
all these neat things. I hope you like me too cause I'll always watch
over you" Serena eyes filled with tears and looked at Darien proudly.
He took Reeny and held her overjoyed. He still couldn't get over how
small she was.
"Hello Reeny. I'm your daddy.", He said and felt like crying himself.
She was so beautiful like her mother. "Wow being in labor for nine
hours must have tired you out", He remarked giving Reeny back to her
and kissing Serena on her forehead. Pushing her hair out of her face
he thought of how much he loved her.
"It was tiring but worth it. So worth it", She remarked. Serena looked
up at Darien who she grew to love more everyday, Alex who made so proud
to be his mother and her latest bundle of joy. She realized how lucky
she was ."But you know what? Somethings are worth making sacrifices"
