chapter 1

as mogami kyoko walked down the halls in LME she was thinking over her last 2 years here at LME and remmebering everything on her journey to where she was now a highly respected lme actress. grinning at the memories she countuied her walk down the hall to the presadent of LME office. ealer that day she had been requested to come in. so here she was on her way to the presadents office happily smiling and skipping on her way there when she heard a voice behind her.

"hello mogami-san. how are you today" she reaconized that voice instintally. she turned around to find ren tsuraga and his manger walking towards her.

"hello , and good after noon to you yashiro-san and tsuraga san. how are you we havent seen eachother for a little while ago now have we. well im fine how are you " said kyoko politie as always giving a slight bow.

"o im just fine as well kyoko san and yes it is nice to see you too. isnt it ren" yashiro said looking at his young charge teaseing him even if kyoko didnt know that.

just as kyoko turned her attenion to ren she realized he looked quite surprisedd and a little flustered. "yes it is good to see you moganmi san its been a little while" and though ren would never let anyone know he had secretly been counting the dyas and hours. it had been 2 week 5 day and 7 hours since he had last seen his beloved kyoko. and though to everyone it seemed odvisouse that ren liked kyoko she never saw it.

the truth was simple ren was in love with kyoko while kyoko had undetermined feeling towards him.

"so where are you going moganmi san" yashiro asked knowing full well how much ren wanted to stay with her.

"o me im just going see the prsadent apparently he has a something he wishes to speak to me about." kyoko said smiling she may have had no idea that ren heart shopped every time she did but how could she help it. soon it would be time to prepare the happy greatfull party again and then she would be turning 19 years old.

however she was not the only one happily awaiting her birthday so was ren because the way he saw it this was the time he had been waiting for for almost 2 years the time where he could finally tell her how he felt. he knew it was risky but he couldnt take it any more. he was in love with this girl no this woman his kyoko. over his time of knowing her he had fallen so hard and was not only lovestuck but love sick too, to top it all off he had been miserable without her he didnt want her going anywhere just yet.

his manger could clearly see the longing and love sick look in rens eyes he had to admitt he loved seeing ren like this he disided to help as it was clear he wouldnt be able to find anything to say so he took pity on him and helped he out so he could spend more time with his girl. "oh really were going there two would you mind walking with us. " he asked sweetly he knew ren would thank him someday.

kyoko glanced at ren and was a little taken aback at his faceiall expression he was so open compared to how he normally was so guarded. and not just that but was looking so happy and hopefull there was something in his eyes that made her heart flutter and at the same time thud painfully in her chest she really hoped they couldnt hear it as she had no explantation ready for it and she honestly didnt know but she quickly cleared those thoughts out of her head as she anewsered.

"sure i would lo- i mean appresate some company"and although she had covered it up pretty well it didnt escape either of their notice that she had almost gagged upon saying the word love that supposedly cursed word that had landed kyoko in the love me section in the first place that she was even now still stuck in and this was yet another sign of her struggles against it.

both of them imeditally sivered upon feelings rens dark aura as he grawled out "moganami-san" in a threating sort of way. kyoko snapped she head up to meet rens only to shrink back upon seeing his angry expression she ad knownthat was coming and she could tell he was greatly disapointed in her. she hung her head low in a bow of shame and aploge so low she could have fallen over.

"im sorry" she said glancing back up at him with shamfilled eyes

oh great now i feel terriable ren thought realizeing he had just made her upset. oh well hed take this chance to ask a question he had been dying to sighing he said "its alright moganami-san im not angry at you" he saw her relax slightly "but how are u doing about your love issues anyway" she saw her wince and then deflate. it was good sign she was going to be honest.

"well you see i have made good progress i been able to work on the love for my job, friends, co-workers even the few children i meet. however i still struggle a fair amount in the parents love department"her eyes darkened and filled with an emotion ren knew all too well. after all she was now stuck back into her painfull memories. seeing that expression on her face made ren want to hold her it overwelmed him. dang it man get a hold of yourself ren. he thought mentally berating himself off. "but still im getting help with that from father."she said brightly turning a dazzling smile towards him that just reversed everything. though she of course didnt seem to notice the effect her actiones had on ren.

but both ren himself his manager noticed the very slight blush on his cheeks though that was for 2 reasons (1 kyoko had called rens father father which made things embaressing, 2 kyoko never seemed to understand how cute and beautifull she could be or how much it made ren want to wisk her off somewhere secret and kiss her breathless. dang it love ren thought why cant kyoko give me a break.

but then again he knew this would ruin the mood but he had to say it "and what about romantic love kyoko-chan" asked rens manager

they both seemed to freze like ice and both kyoko and ren looked at him as if saying are u insane. but kyokos demons were covered up really quickly when shee spoke "no im afraid theres been no progress there whatsoever. at the moment i just honestly dont know right now" she said her eyes cased sadly at th floor while her hair mainly covered.

there was awkard silence for a moment as they all took in the conversation ren broke it gentally while saying "well im glad your at least trying. maybe youull even make a breakthrough soon. now shall we go onwards to the presadent hes waiting" ren said.
