"How is he?" Serena asked the doctor, full of worry. The doctor gave her a heavy look that was filled with sorrow. Serena started panicking, "Is he alive?! What's wrong with him?!" She pleaded.

"He is alive; however, it is unlikely he will be by morning," the doctor said softly.

"Why...?" Serena desperately whispered.

"You're aware that he has cancer. The cancer tripled its growth since last time he was here. He was supposed to go through chemo next week, but it would have no effect now." The doctor placed his hand on the sobbing Serena's shoulder, "All you can do is make sure he has a happy final sight." The doctor opened the door for Serena and left quietly.

Serena stared at Darien's pale face. His breathing was light and shaky. Seeing him in this hospital bed only made things more real. "Darien..." Serena whispered, tears in her eyes.

"Meatball Head," Darien said lightly.

"You haven't called me that in ages," Serena smiled. She sat down on the edge of Darien's bed and stroked his hair. The two stared at each other for what seemed like hours.

"You'll be okay," Darien whispered.

"That's my line," Serena said softly. Darien shook his head and grabbed Serena's hand. He brought it to his lips and gave it a gentle kiss.

"You have the girls and Rini. They won't let anything bad happen to you, Serena. Ray came here earlier. She yelled at me a bit for being weak when I have a wife and young daughter, but then said she'll make sure you two are okay. I know it was out of concern that she was angry." As Darien spake, Serena's crying grew more intense.

"Darien." Serena cried. She collapsed onto his chest and laid there, sobbing.

Darien held her to him and continued speaking, "Lita said she'll do the cooking for you two, Amy said that she'll help you with bill calculations, and Mina said that she will make sure you continue having fun." Although it broke her heart to hear about life without Darien, Serena couldn't hold back the smile the love of her friends brought her.

"They're the best friends I could ever ask for, " Serena admitted.

With a laugh, Darien added, "I'm pretty sure they're making you live with them."

"I guess that's how most college girls live," Serena tittered. The two laid in silence together, listening to their breathing.

"Serena," Darien broke the silence.

"Yes, Darien?"

"I love you," He whispered and held her tighter.

"I love you, too," Serena said with tears in her eyes once again. She hugged Her Love as tight as she could. Before long Serena was in a deep sleep. Darien was still awake. He took advantage of every second, and stared at her face. He took in every detail, so that when he closed his eyes, he could still see her face.

"Goodnight, Serena, and... goodbye, My Love." And with saying that, Darien closed his eyes, and fell asleep.
