FATE

Disclaimer: I don't own anything.

Note: This is my first Skip Beat story. I really like the story, and wish that Ren and Kyoko would get together. This story popped in my day the other day and I wanted to share it with others. I hope you like it. It breaks off from the main story I know, but it has to so that Ren and Kyoko can get together. I know that my spelling and grammar suck so please forgive me.

Setting: Dark Moon is on location filming, when Kyoko gets meets Reino for the first time. Ren is still working his modeling job.

"Ren, turn more to the left and put your hand your right hip. Just like that, good." The photo shot was taking longer than was planned; there had been so problems with the clothies and some of the model had been very late, on top of that Ren's mind seemed to be some place else all the time. Oh well that is what you get went one of your models is also a famous actor.

"Thank you Ren and everyone, please go change for the next set. We will start again as soon as everyone is back."

Yashiro was waiting in Ren's dressing room with his next change of clothies. "Ren I know that you are worried about Kyoko being on location for the first time, but you need to focus on this shot or it is going to be even longer till you can get on location and be with her."

"I know, I just keep have this bad feeling that something has happened to her and I hate the fact that I can't be there to protect her." Ren could not stop thinking about Kyoko and what he would do if something happened to her, now that he knew how he feels about her he didn't like the idea of life without her in it.

"What would you think if I left tonight to make sure everything is going well on location?" Yashiro knew that if something didn't change Ren would never get done with this photo shot.

"That would make me feel a little better. I just don't like the idea of her being on location with no one there for her to turn to if something were to happen. When you get there please watch her to make sure everything is all right, but make sure she does not see you or else she is going to be so mad at me."

"Not a problem, I will keep a low profile and call you with an update every hour if that is what you want."

"Thanks Yashiro, I will be there as planned unless you say otherwise." Ren changed his outfit and headed back to the photo shot feeling a little better about everything.

ooOoo

Back at Ren's apartment later that night.

Ren was sitting on his couch reading his Dark Moon script trying to keep busy and not think about Kyoko so much. The problem was that every time to look at the script he was not seeing the words on the paper, but Kyoko's face. He could not get over this feeling that something bad was happening.

Ring Ring Ring

Picking up his cell phone he noticed the caller ID was that of Kyoko. Without hesitating he answered the phone.

"Kyoko, what's wrong?"

"Nothing is wrong, why would you think that something was wrong?" How could Ren knew that something has happened earlier that day?

"Kyoko you know that you can tell me anything right? I may not be there right now, but I can be there in no time, if you need." Ren really want to tell her that he was scared for her safety but then he would have to tell her how he felt for her.

"Ren everything is fine, here. I just wanted to call you and see how the photo shot was going. It is kind of weird not seeing you on set all the time." Kyoko was missing Ren a lot, and after that weird guy Reino from the Beagles, today she really just wanted the comfort only Ren could provide her.

"The photo shot is going slow, there have been so many problems, but hopefully tomorrow we will be able to finish everything up so that I can head your way tomorrow night. How is filming going?"

"Everything is going well; it is cool being on location with everyone. Oh I ran in to Shou today. I was not expecting to see him here, but I guess he is here working on a new CD. He has been having a lot of trouble with this other band that has been stealing his songs. He is really worried about it, but he is working on new songs so that he can get this CD out in time."

"Shou is there?" Ren was getting so jealous that he could not long sit still. Why should Shou get to spend time with Kyoko after everything that he had done to here over the years? It should be him spending time with Kyoko and Shou at home wishing things were different.

"Yeah, he is here working on his CD like I said. I wish he was not here but after what happened today I am kind of glad that it was." Shot she didn't mean to say that. She didn't want Ren to freak out. It is not like he could do anything about it anyways.

"So something did happen today, why didn't you tell me earlier?" He so mad he could break something.

"It wasn't anything really; just this Reino guy, from the band that is stealing Shou songs, said some weird things to me that make me a little uneasy. I didn't want you to worry. Plus what can you do right now, you are not here?"

"I am not there now, but that doesn't mean that I can't be there tomorrow morning. I had this feeling that something had happened today, so I sent Yashiro ahead to make sure everything is ok. He should be getting there any time."

"You didn't have to do that, I can take care of myself you know." She hated when people tried to treat her like a little kid that can't do anything for herself.

"I know that you can take care of yourself, but it does not stop me from worrying about your safety. Can you do me a favor and go stay in my suite with Yashiro tonight? I would feel so much better if someone was with you tonight. I will be there as soon as I can tomorrow. Hopefully there is an early flight that I can take."

"Ren you need to be there to finish the photo shot, you can't just drop everything just because you are worried. Plus I will not be along tonight, I do have a roommate."

"The photo shot can be finished another time it is not that important, what is important is your safety. Even with a roommate I would still feel better knowing that you were staying in a room that Reino could not find you in. I have a bad feeling about that guy."

"Nothing is going to happen to me in my room, Reino does not know where my room is so there is no chance for him to do anything as long as I am in my room. This is why I didn't want to tell you because I knew you would worry and there really is nothing to worry about."

"Fine if you say there is nothing to worry about, but at least keep your cell phone with you and call me if anything else happens tonight. I will be there tomorrow morning hopefully. I am getting my stuff ready right now, and as soon as I am done packing I am headed to the airport."

"Ren stay and finish the photo shot, I would feel bad knowing that I was the reason for the photo shot to have to be rescheduled. Nothing is going to happened to me with all these people around me."

"No way, I am on a plane tonight. Kyoko the feelings I am getting will not going to go away until I can see for myself that you are okay. There is no way in hell I am going to let anything happen to you now that I found you again." Shit I didn't just say that, Ren thought. "I am finished packing now, so I better head to the airport see you tomorrow Kyoko sleep well." With that he hang up the phone before Kyoko could say again else. He had just told her that they had met before and pretty much told her he had feelings for her. Not exactly how he wanted to tell her that he loved her and that he was Korn from her childhood. How could he have been so stupid?

"There is no way in hell that I am I let anything happen to you now that I found you again." What does that mean? Could they have known each other before and she just didn't remember it? Why was he so worried about her all the sudden? Could he have feeling for her like she did for him? Why couldn't she stop thinking about him? Kyoko was so confused by everything that was happening and a little scared that she was wrong and that Reino would come after her again. Why didn't she just take Ren up on his offer to stay in his suite with Yashiro tonight? Too late to do anything now, it would probably best she just head to bed and try to get some sleep. Ren would be there in the morning and she could not wait to see him, but she didn't want to have bags under her eyes when she saw him.

That night Kyoko kept having bad dreams dealing with Reino and what he had said that day. At one point in her dream he had tied her to a bed and was trying to rape her. She had wake up yelling Ren's name at the end of that dream. She really wished to her was with him right now, he would keep her safe.

The alarm went off but Kyoko was already awake, so she just turned it off and went to take a shower. She really hoped that Ren was able to get a flight last night; with him around she would be able to relax a little.

Kyoko had just stepped out of the shower and was putting on a pair of sweats when there was a knock at her door, so she throw a t-shirt on without putting on her bra hoping that whoever it was she could get rid of them so she could finish getting ready for the day. Looking through the peep hole she saw Ren standing there with a worried look on his face.

"Ren! Thank God you made it." Kyoko said as she open the door and grabbed Ren in a big hug.

"Kyoko what is the matter, did something happen after I called last night?" Ren asked as he dropped all his bags to wrap his arms around Kyoko.

"No, I just had long night with a lot of bad dreams. I guess I was more scared that I thought I was last night. I keep having bad dreams that Reino would find me and attack me in different ways. I am glad you made it, even those I feel bad that you had to reschedule that photo shot because of my little problem."

"Kyoko you are more important to me than any photo shot in the world." Ren was still hugging Kyoko when he realized that she must have just got out of the shower and in middle of getting dressed when he knocked because she was not wear a bra and she shirt was a little wet. He was having a problem fighting the desire to kiss her already; her not wearing a bra and almost being about to see through her shirt was not helping anything. "Why don't you finish getting dressed and we can go put my stuff in my room, have breakfast and talk. How does that sound?"

Kyoko remembered that she had not put on a bra and saw that her shirt was a little wet from just getting out of the shower, so Ren could almost see completely through her shirt, thank God that she had not grabbed a white shirt in her hurry. "That sounds good, be right back." She went back in her room shutting the door behind her and grabbed a bra and a new shirt and put both on. After leaving a note for her roommate she grabbed her key and headed out the door. She was so happy that she was going to be able to spend time with Ren.
