IMPENETRABLE HEART CHAPTER ONE

Beta Reader: SkinOfInk

A/N: The Heel Siblings never came to be at this moment, thus Kyoko never realized her feelings for Ren. Sorry for the spoiler for non-manga readers.

This story will not be one-sided, meaning all bachelors (I have no idea what to call Kyoko's partners, forgive me) have equal chances to conquer the heroine's impenetrable heart.

I hope and pray that this will brighten your day or even make you smile even just a little for I believe that words have the power to. Haha. But seriously, I really hope it will! If I have or have not, please tell me for I will put my heart and soul to improve my writing skills (if I have some skills to boot) as to please the my readers (if I have any). Thank you and please read every word until the end! God bless us all :)

DISCLAIMER: I do not own 'Skip Beat!' no matter how I much wish for it. I am simply a superfan like most of us here. I am truly grateful to Nakamura Yoshiki-sensei for bringing the perfect mix of humor and pure romance to our lives because without her, this story would cease to exist.

"Mogami-san! You have a new job!" Sawara-san squealed as he mentioned his report to Kyoko on the phone.

"EHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" the girl replied loudly, blowing away her evil minions in surprise. "Really?! I'm so happy, Sawara-san!" she exclaimed, teary eyed in bliss.

She was literally bursting with happiness at this very moment. Because she has been too busy with her recent acts and very troubled at the same time since soon they were about to end soon. She was not able to think about what she would do for her next job to be able to reach Ren Tsuruga's acting prowess and the right offers were simply not coming in. They were always for TV guestings, variety shows or acts in small-scale dramas which she was forced to decline due to work and school reasons, but she was accepting everything she could, that's for sure. She was giving acting her utmost best and perhaps even more. She was starting to really love her job.

"You see this time it's huuuuuuuuge!" Sawara-san explained further.

"Huge?!" Kyoko exclaimed futher.

"Yes! It's gonna be big!" he said, almost shouting in excitement.

"Big?!" she said, trying to keep up with Sawara-san's happiness level.

"Exactly! So stop repeating every word I say."

"Yes! Sorry!" she bowed in apology.

"Mogami-san, please do not bow in apology to your phone. I have a feeling you're doing it in public and it is not really ideal to do that."

"Ah! Yes! Certainly boss!" she confirmed proudly with a snappy army salute.

"Don't salute either." Sawara-san was already giving himself a face palm at this moment. This girl's too excited, he thought. But he was certainly happy about her enthusiasm. There was no reason for her not to be. This was a really really big scale production. This might even be her debut! He was just hoping she didn't get scolded by someone for shouting loudly.

"Customer-san, can you please take it outside? The others are greatly troubled," the waiter apologetically said in a slight bow with his right hand gesturing to the exit.

"Eh?" SHIMATA! She shouted in her head. She clearly forgotten that she was having tea inside a traditional Japanese-style coffee shop whose customers are mostly elders. And elders didn't like their share of the noise our main character was good at. "Ah yes! I'm sorry!" she bowed in apology as she left the site whilst receiving a mix of angry glares and light laughter from the crowd on her way out.

"I knew you'd get scolded. Now come to my office and we'll discuss it." Sawara-san sighed.

Kyoko closed her phone gently and looked down on the ground with a heavy shoulders. She felt bad for giving trouble to others. And so she vowed to do ten times better on her current job to pay back for all the mistakes she had done in the past (for being too choosy for roles she's been offered, for slacking off sometimes, for being too unguarded as to get kissed by a perverted evil anteater prince and for ever thinking of having romantic feelingsTsuruga-san). Thus, she went past with unmatched speed towards LME and well, towards her dream as actress.

"Mogami-san! Please calm down!" Sawara-san was screaming in horror. Who wouldn't anyway when your whole office was being devoured by some dark and menacing unknown being? He felt years of his life being drained away. He had a wife and daughter to think about. Please have mercy! The manager of the talent department was shivering now. He was pleading for dear life.

"WHY?!" an evil minion named "rage" that had become so dark that it's face couldn't be seen anymore, had motioned around Sawara's neck and swirled its body around him making the poor guy's eyes almost turn completely white.

"I-I thought it would make you happy, M-Mogami-san! After all it's a romance drama with your beloved Sho—" the minions swarmed around Sawara and covered his mouth even before he mention the full name of demon's most favored human.

The sheer thought of combining romance and that bastard's name was and had been erased from her thoughts and memories. The wretched feelings involving that word and that man were history and Kyoko wanted it to stay in the past where it belonged. All that was left was an undying thirst for revenge and if by doing that, she was to be the leading actress of the bastard Sho Fuwa in ROMANCE drama… Unbelievable! He must be planning something ominous against me.

What was the big idea of starring in a drama anyway? He's a singer, isn't he? He should just stick to singing! She forced herself to accept her own statement. But it wasn't rare for artists to have their own drama series nowadays. In fact, it has become a very famous trend in Japan to make an actor out of a singer. But him? Yes, I can't deny the fact that he's popularity skyrocketed after the Vie Ghoul incident… but could this be the big surprise he was talking about? Kyoko kept pondering the questions that keep popping out of her head.

She shook her head vigorously for the who knows how many times now. She had already lost count. She still found all these hard to believe. She couldn't find a reason why at all why she was chosen as the lead actress. Well, except for revenge that is. She was going to be tortured to death pretending to be in love with a bastard like him... Surely, in this drama, she has to revive the feelings of love for the man she now hated.

She shook her head to shake the thoughts away for the last time. She wasn't ready for this. In fact, she never saw this coming at all. But if not now when would she be ready? This opportunity might be her only chance to defeat Sho in his own game and she was to be armed with her best weapon. But it was too good to be true, she hesitated. She paused and thought about it long and hard.

All the nerves in her body were yelling no. She wasn't equipped with her best ammunitions yet. She hadn't even debuted yet. Defeating her life rival with only half of her prowess was not enough. She had to crush him to the point that he wasn't able to fight back! And now was not the time for them to spar. But that was not the issue here… She'd rather die in the most torturous way than to act alongside the man she hates in the whole universe and worst of the worst, act like she was in love with him! She felt a pain stab in her chest as the word 'love' was mentioned.

"I refuse," she muttered softly as if she were holding back tears seeing her ball up her fists. She calmed down all of a sudden with her head held down, all her underlings slowly returning to their master, making Sawara feel a little relieved seeing the room return to its original well ventilated state before it was suddenly consumed in darkness a while ago.

At least one problem has decreased. Now the next problem, the biggest of them all, was to know why this girl was so passionate when it concerned this certain boy called Fuwa Sho. Just who exactly is she to him and him to her? He was teary eyed now. Such a passionate feeling made him remember the time of his youth when he was just as zealous to his wife. But one thing's for sure. He must be a very important person to her for making her show a variety of emotions just upon hearing his name. That he was sure of.

"But Mogami-san… we already accepted the offer long ago." He sighed a sigh of dejection as he sat up straight on his chair. "Why the strong desire to decline such a great offer? This is your chance for ultimate stardom!"

"Please reject the offer, Sawara-san. I beg of you." The girl was suddenly on the floor now, bowing down her head gracefully but with a voice tinged with grief and anxiety. He couldn't believe she'd go that far just to reject such a once in a lifetime opportunity. Having been in this industry, he couldn't think of any reason why this girl would decline.

"Get up, Mogami-kun. You shall be appearing in this show as Fuwa-kun's leading actress." Kyoko raised her head upon hearing President Lory Takarada's voice. She was surprised to see the president in front of her when there was nothing to signal his entrance. No elephants, no orchestra, no nothing. Not even his attendant was there. He was all alone except… a tall figure behind him waiting for his turn to talk.

"As an actress, you should take advantage of every opportunity that comes to you. Didn't I tell you to be more ambitious, Mogami-san?" Kyoko was now pulled up by the strong arms of the man, acknowledged by Kyoko herself as the 'Emperor of the Night', his highness himself, Ren Tsuruga armed with his most genuine smile. "…Besides, he's not your only leading actor." He added with a smile bigger and brighter than before.

"Eh?! What do you mean?!" she shouted in surprise.

"He means what he means, Mogami-kun." The president laughingly explained. "You are to star in this decade's most awaited romance drama by the infamous but highly-acclaimed international director, Izumi Zara." He explained further. "And with that, you will be starring with both Fuwa Sho and Tsuruga Ren as your leading man."

Seeing the smile the President had and the seriousness of the tone of his voice as he was saying the last line made Kyoko think that there was definitely no backing out of this project.
