Somebody must be Praying For me Song by Tim McGraw Story by: Alexis-chan E-mail: aqua_moonstone17@hotmail.com Rating: PG Chotto minna-chan! I just love winter *not*, but I’m sort-of enjoying today! You see,northern Kentucky and Southern Indiana (and I believe a little bit of Ohio) are under Winter Weather warnings, and we got an ice storm last night so NO SCHOOL FOR US! A 4-day weekend....how’s that for a change? So anyways, I was just sitting here, listening to Tim McGraw (totally hot and totally talented!) and thought of a good romance story to go with a couple of his songs. So here’s the first, to #4 on “A place in the Sun”‘Somebody Must Be Praying For Me’. I highly recommend ANY of his CD’s to ANYONE, especially if you like country, or Garth Brooks. Anyways, standard disclaimers apply. I don’t own Sailor Moon, never have and never willso don’t sue me because I’m dirt poor and don’t own nothing of any value *Bob mumbles sarcastically under his breath “yeah, sure”* *Alexis wacks him upside the head* Okkkkkkayyyyyyy.......now. As always, thanks to all the peeps who still talk to a loonylike me!!! Angel Eternal, Brianna, Alex, Mako-chan, Starlite, and everyone else! Love ya lots guys! Here’s the song!!!!!! (and the story of course! Gomen...too much chocolate andno school!!!!!!!) Ja ne! (AN: I know some places in here say like Oklahoma and California....but just use yourimagination and pretend that their small little cities outside of Tokyo Japan and thatHollywood is where she wanted to go) ************************************** She left Oklahoma for California Sunglasses on the brim of her hat Smoke was pouring from that old Cadillac But she wasn’t turning back Just outside of Flagstaff Motor blew on her Coupe DeVil Just in time, she saw a sign There was a Texaco waiting at the bottom on the hill And she said Somebody must be praying for me Somebody out there must be praying for me Must be angels that I can’t see Somebody must be praying for me ********************************************* The young blond stared down at the radiator. 17 and out on her own didn’t make for twogood things. Running low on what little cash she had, she wondered where she was goingto stay the night.*BEEP BEEP BEEP* Serena Tsukino glanced down at the dashboard and saw the car was overheating! “Stupid car!” Serena cried. She was in the middle of no-where. Didn’t have a clue whereshe was exactly, and there was no place.................... Right as she slowly drove over the hill, she saw a small Texaco station down there with aservice/repair shop right next to it. “Thank you Lord, thank you.” Serena whispered, slowly driving the ‘old clunker’ down the hill and pulling into the station. She slipped out of the car and straighten her short pink skirt and white spaghetti strapped shirt. Serena propped her sunglasses on top of her head, between her ‘meatballs’ and started walking towards the station. As she got near a largeFord F-150, she noticed a figure slumped over the hood, repairing something inside. “Excuse me sir?” She gasped in surprise as the young man turned around and looked herin face.******************************* A boy ‘bout 20 climbed out of a truckAll covered in dirt and grease She said “Hey Charles!”But he just laughed and said “I’m wearing my Daddy’s shirt.”He stood there lost in her eye’s And she got lost in his’As the years roll by, she would sigh Every time they kissedAnd she’d saySomebody must be praying for me Somebody out there must be praying for meMust be angels that I can’t see Somebody must be praying for me*************************************** Serena was stunned by this young man, whom she thought was about 20 to 21 years old.His ebony hair fell lightly into his midnight blue eyes. A sexy, but adorable, lopsided smilewas plastered on his face. “Hey.....uh......Charles?” Serena asked cautiously, looking at the name written on his shirt. The guy looked shocked for a minute then looking down at his shirt, laughed. “No. I’m wearing my dad’s shirt today, all mine were dirty. Name’s Darien Chiba.” Darien stuck out his hand which he had just wiped off with the rag in his other hand. “Serena Tsukino.” She took his hand and shook it. As they stood there, the hot summersun beating down of them, they couldn’t help but be drawn to each other’s blue eyes. Darien’s midnight blue eyes held her gaze and Darien was lost in the light blueness ofSerena’s eyes. “Car trouble?” Darien asked, looking over at the car she had pulled up in. “Yeah, started to overheat. You think you could fix it?” Serena asked hopefully. “Sure thing, but it might take a couple of days. Were sort-of backed up here. You got aplace to stay around here?” Darien asked. “Nope. I was heading out to Tokyo Japan to try to eventually make my way to Hollywood USA.” Now thinking about the idea and the fight she had with her family about whethershe would be able to make it or not seemed pretty stupid. “What’s so funny? If you want to go there and become an actress or model, do it.” Dariensmiled lovingly at the young girl as he lead her inside the air conditioned building. “I’m just working here this summer to help pay my tuition at Tokyo University Medical School.”“Your gonna be a doctor? Cool.” Serena blushed at her stupid comment. The she said “Sohow far is Tokyo from here?”“About 45 minutes.” “Oh. Is there a local, cheap hotel around?” Serena put an emphasis on the word cheapbecause she was running low on money. A thousand sure didn’t last as long as she thoughtit would. “Actually yeah. My mom runs a bed and breakfast inn at our house. It’s pretty big and it’s just me, her, my dad who runs this shop, and my little sister Rose.” Darien said, handingSerena a Pepsi. “How much?” She secretly was hoping it wasn’t too much, because then that meant shecould be around Darien a little more and hopefully get to know him a little better. She didn’t know what was going on inside of her, but she thought, just thought for a moment,she was falling for this guy she had just met. Darien was feeling the same thing inside too. “Mom usually let’s people who are low on cash stay there for free. She really doesn’t do it for the money, she just loves meeting new people. It gets pretty interesting there.” After a few more minutes of chatting with Darien and even meeting and talking with his father, Charlie Chiba, Serena was talked into being their guest at the bed and breakfast for three days, or at least until they could get around to fixing her car.-3 years Later- 20 year old Serena looked out over the large field where three horses were runningaround. A small girl was sitting on the steps next to her, trying to solve some mathhomework. “Need some help Rosey?” Serena smiled down at the 9 year old little girl. Her hair was the same color as her older brothers, but her eyes were as green as the grass. “No..........” Rose trailed off as she glanced up, seeing a familiar black BMW that herbrother spend a year and a half saving up to buy. “Darien!” Rose cried, running to hug her brother. Serena smiled and stood up, walking swiftly over to her new fiancée. Darien gave his little sister, whom he adored, a hug beforestanding up and catching the love of his life in a kiss. Serena’s mind went back to that fateful day when her car broke down and she met theman who held her heart in the palm of his hand. A little over three years had passed. She hadn’t went on to Hollywood, but helped Carole Chiba with the Inn and then becameengaged to Darien. She still talked to her parents, but they still told her they knew that she would never make it in Hollywood. But that didn’t matter as long as she was in his arms.************************************************ Sometimes she stares out the windowAnd wonders about her Hollywood dreams But when tucks her kids in bedShe softly whispered as they fall asleep Somebody must be praying for meSomebody out there must be praying for me Ain’t it funny how you always findJust what you need Somebody must be praying for meSomebody must be praying for me Praying for me.....................***************************************** Serena Chiba smiled as she looked at the full moon out of the window of Darien and her’s apartment. She walked down the hall and glanced into the first room, covered in pinkbunnies. She smiled at their first born, a 5 year old Serena Usagi.........or just Rini as they called her. The room right next to that was in dark blue colors and held many celestialthings. Serena giggled as the saw her son, same dark hair as his father, but her eyes, wasasleep on the floor, wrapped up in a blanket. They had moved to Tokyo as soon as Darien had receive a doctors position at TokyoGeneral Hospital. They were married soon after and Rini was right after that.“Hey Meatball Head.” A voice called behind her. She turned to see Darien, taking off his white coat. Serena threw herself into his arms and hugged him close. “Hey muffin.” She whispered gently in his ear as he kissed her neck. “How are you?”“Fine.”“The kids.”“Fine.” “And this one?” He gently laid his hand on her swollen abdomen. She smiled up at him.“They’re fine.” Serena grinned up at his shocked expression. “They’re?” He looked down on his lovely wife, thanking the stars and moon that her carhad broke down outside his shop and that his dad had dragged him to work. If his dad hadn’t promised him that weekend off, there would have been no way he would have wentin on his normal day off. Looks like fate was on his side for once. “Yes. Twins.” Darien pulled her closer and hugged her tight. “I love you so much Serena.” He whispered as her kissed her earlobe. “And I love you too. Forever and always.” Their lips met as they pulled each other asclose as they could, perfectly content to be in each others loving embrace.THE END.............So how was it? I need feedback peeps!
