Alright, this is my first Skip Beat! Story and I know this is not the conventional pairing, please just bear with me. Generally I would not accept this pairing either but just once in awhile I sometimes feel bad for Sho and decided he deserved a second chance. Please review if you like it, if you don't please don't bash it, it's my first story in awhile. This story is set after Manga Chapter 203 and no further.

A teenage girl sat alone on a park bench in central Tokyo. Her presence there may have gone unnoticed had it not been for the dark aura of gloom that surrounded her, harshly contrasting the neon pink jumpsuit she wore.

There she was, LME's #1 "LoveMe" girl, head bowed and posture slumped while people cautiously walked around her path, scared of even approaching such an aura. Kyoko sat in a daze - eyes wide, vacant, and unblinking, while tears threatening to fall, trying to comprehend her latest life disaster.

Thirty minutes earlier

LME's main lobby was abuzz with reporters present for the press announcement of one Tsugura Ren. There was a small raised platform below the main escalator with a podium and microphone just for this event. The reporters whispered excitedly amongst themselves, trying to guess what the news from Japan's number one male star could possibly be. They all knew if Tsugura Ren was calling a press conference it must be something juicy, as the star prided himself on staying in front of the gossip columns.

Kyoko entered into the lobby with Kanae, large smile plastered on her face, gushing over being able to spend the morning with her best friend.

"Mooookoo! Why can't we go out today and get ice cream like we did after the Curara auditions? It's been so long since we've spent time together." Kyoko pouted, being dragged across the floor as she hung to her friend's ankle for dear life.

"Mo! Can't you act normal?!" Moko exclaimed as she was torn between continuing on or breaking the vice grip from her legs. "How can you even think of all those calories? You're an actress for crying out loud, act like one! Besides I have a meeting for my next LoveMe assignment with the president now"

Releasing her Kyoko stood up and brushed herself off, finally noticing the crowd throughout the lobby. "What's all this about?"

"Didn't you hear? There's some big announcement from your precious Sempai. Probably some new movie role" Pausing in her step Moko turned to her bewildered friend who had stopped following behind. "I assume you'll be sticking around the lobby to find out?"

Nodding emphatically, Kyoko waved goodbye as she snuck into the back of the crowd to find out.

I wonder what it could be. He never mentioned anything last time I saw him, but then again we were the "Heel siblings" so it's not like we could talk about our lives.

Taking a spot in the back of the crowd, Kyoko poked her head between the shoulders of two reporters and watched as Yashiro-san, Tsugura, and a beautiful woman walked onto a raised platform. Kyoko saw Yashiro's ever calm expression falter as their eyes met momentarily before calmly approaching the podium.

"Excuse me. If everyone would calm down for a moment we will start." Yashiro calmly stepped aside as Tsugura approached with the woman at his side.

Kyoko knew she recognized the woman but could not quite place her. The woman stood elegantly beside Tsugura, maybe 4 inches shorter in her 3 inch heels, long brunette hair flowing about her while she gently gazed at the crowd around her.

"As I'm sure you all remember, Ms Hiroto Ayame and I were in a romantic relationship recently" Ren started as his eyes scanned the crowd. Bright pink caught his eye as his eyes widened momentarily upon seeing Kyoko in the crowd before his usually stoic expression returned as he continued. "The reason we've called you all here today is for an important announcement we preferred to give ourselves instead of it being splashed across the tabloids". Ren reached his arm around Hiroto Ayame's waist, pulling her closer to him and smiled at her as he continued. "Ayame and I are excited to announce that we are engaged and plan to wed by the end of the year".

A roar erupted through the crowd as reporters called out questions and bustled about to get the attention of the podium first. Kyoko allowed herself to be shoved to the back of the crowd as shock was evident across her face, and a deafening silence engulfed her. As the silence pressured in around her, Kyoko managed to find her way out of the building, unaware of Yashiro fighting through the crowd to get her attention. A pair of dark eyes followed her out as a sigh escaped the lips of President Lory from his spot above the lobby.

Sho angrily slammed the off button on his car radio after the third station he'd had on started gushing about Japan's number one celebrity being off the market. As the car came to a stop at a light, Sho couldn't help but follow a pair of long gorgeous legs cross the street in front of him. As his eyes followed her to the corner a mass of bright pink in the park beyond caught his eye. Seeing her orange hair from behind, Sho couldn't help but think she was sent as a gift to entertain himself from his annoyance. Pulling his car into a spot beside the park, Sho pulled out his "disguise" of a cap and sunglasses as he made his way over to the bench.

"Oi, shouldn't plain boring girls keep themselves locked up for the public's sake" Sho called over to her as he approached, arrogant smirk plastered on his face in preparation for the fight to come. As silence passed, Sho's face fell as he stepped in front of her, annoyed at being ignored.

"...oi, are you alright" he called again, softer this time as he reached a hand out to her shoulder, crouching so his face was level with hers. Kyoko's head was downcast, allowing her bangs to fall over her eyes, but not even a flinch of the body showed recognition that she had been touched. Panic started to set in as Sho crouched lower to look into her eyes and realized Kyoko was staring straight through him. Tears welled in her wide vacant eyes as she sat unmoving, except for an incoherent murmuring from her lips.

Without a moment's hesitation, Sho grabbed her wrist and tugged her after him, growing more concerned as she mindlessly allowed herself to be pulled along. Guiding her to his car Sho opened the passenger door as Kyoko allowed herself to be ushered into the seat. Sho hastily reached over her and strapped her seatbelt in before tearing around his car and into the driver's seat. Not bothering to stop with his own belt, Sho pulled into traffic and raced to his apartment.

A dark figure watched from across the park as an even darker aura than Kyoko's erupted from the park. He'd tried to find her after Yashiro failed to stop her but the press was relentless. In all his deepest fears from this announcement he never imagined this would lead her to Fuwa Sho of all people, let alone that she'd willing go anywhere with him. Anger rippled off of the tall actor as he stormed back to LME, determined to find someone to bring Kyoko back to him and away from Fuwa Sho.

That's it for now. I'm working on the next chapter now but I'm not sure how long it will take, please be patient and favorite it if you want to know when it's updated!
