AN: When I first wrote this they didn't even have Saki's name on the characters list!

Ikebukuro's infamous womanizing flirt, Kida Masaomi, would always be unsuccessful at picking up woman. The unnatural blonde was cute, funny, and had his own charm, but still his streak of failure did not relent.

His best friend, Ryuugamine Mikado, would often sit back and watch his childish friend use every pickup line in the book on passing females. With each rejection, Kida would make an outlandish remark and try again. It was like a game.

The Raira student had once cheerfully said, "The object isn't to get the girls, it's to talk to them! So, for all purposes I'm accomplishing my goal."

Then, grinning like a true idiot, he skipped off to corner a pair of older girls on their lunch break. Leaving a sighing Mikado to wonder what went on his best friend's blonde head.

What the shier boy wouldn't know, is that behind Masaomi's carefree smiles and foolish-sounding words he was battling with the unkind memories of his middle school days. They were always on his mind. The memories of a pretty girl, a gang, and the man he despised were perpetually chasing him.

As the shady information broker had once told him, "The past is a lonely thing."

That was the ultimate reason Kida Masaomi couldn't escape the past; it would mean that he'd have to leave Saki behind. And he could never abandon Saki to loneliness.

So, it didn't matter if he couldn't land a woman.

Saki was the only one for him. He loved her.

Author's Note: This was just a short drabble. I'll definitely be writing actual fics for this pairing though. I adore KidaXSaki. (:
