O.K., here is chapter 5. I'm going to start making the chapters a little longer, so be aware. I'd like to let you all know that I thank everyone for their comments. They were really appreciated. I don't know if many of you know this or not, but when you comment on an author's work, whether good or bad, it makes them feel good, because then they at least know that someone is reading. I guess I rate this PG 13. Oh, and pay attention to the score, it kind of adds a little something to the story, if it increases by more than one notch, then there's a reason, it' not a mistake. Oh, and the score system is sort of a score of desire. It just displays who turns on the other more. Promise Me You'll Love Me Forever By Millennium Guard Serena looked all around and drunk heavily of her atmosphere. It was a bright and sunny day out. So bright and sunny was it, that she had to put on shades. She loved the auroma of the beach. If truth be told, it was her first time ever being on a beach, but she wasn't going to tell Darien that. She looked at the beach in admiration of the way the waves crashes against the shore, and the way they seems to quickly escape back towards the sea. She began to further engross herself into it's beauty when she heard a voice interrupt her thoughts. "Serena" said a female voice. "are you going to help or just stand there?" "Oh, sorry Mina." Serena replied and then began to lay out the beach towels. Mina set the beach bag between the towels with all the things they would need. Darien then walked up with something Serena recognized to be an umbrella. "What's that? Isn't it an umbrella?" she asked "Now why would we need an umb" "Listen, Serena." He interrupted her. "before you go on babbling again, it's a beach umbrella, and you're supposed to use it for shade!" He said sternly before setting up the umbrella between the towels so that it would give them shade. As soon as he finished Justin came running towards them with a stern looking Malachite not far behind. "What the...?" Justin quickly to hide behind Darien's muscular legs. "That little squirt kicked me!" Malachite exclaimed. "You started it!" Justin cried out. "I did not you little maggot!" Malachite said trying to act dignified while attempting to get the boy from behind Darien. "You did too!" Justin exclaimed "Justin, why did you kick him? Serena said sternly to her son letting him know that he was in trouble. "how many times must I tell you not to hit anyone, it's not nice, in fact it's very rude." "But mommy, it wasn't my fault." He retorted. "So, you mean to tell me that he took your foot and made you kick him?" she paused waiting for an answer as Justin put down his head and kicked at the sand. " I didn't think so, now I want you to apologize this instant. "Yes ma'am." He said "No wait." Darien said as Serena began to look up at him. "I want to hear his side of the story." "Darien Wales, how many times do I have to remind you that" "I'm the parent" Darien finished the statement for her. "Yeah I know, but come on, it could be a possible misunderstanding. For all we know it could have been Malachite's fault. I can't believe you would choose a stranger's side over your own son."
