A/N: This is my first Skip Beat! fanfic so if you feel that something is out of place please tell me. :)
Just so everyone knows. I HAVE REWRITTEN THIS CHAPTER. It's kinda the same and kinda not. I'll be rewriting the next few chapters as well. :)
Disclaimer: I don't own Skip Beat!
'Man. I really should be more careful.' Ren thought to himself as he was walking back to the president's office.
'I have to hurry or else Yoshiro will get impatient again, and start teasing me to get revenge for taking so long. I can't believe I forgot my script for the drama I'm shooting today in the president's office. To kick it all off I didn't notice until we were on set. Man, this is embarrassing! '
Meanwhile in the president's office
"Kyoko you have a great show right in front of you. All you have to do is pull the curtains to reveal it." Lory said trying to get Kyoko to confess her feeling to Ren.
"President, my m-mother left me when I was young. Not to mention my father who I've never met. I aimed for a 100% on every school paper I ever got so she would just o feel loved by my mother, and not be punish me for getting a 95%. I poured everything I had out for her, and she just turned her back to me never to return again." Kyoko said while having a very scary look on her face.
"After my mo-mother left me I stayed at a roykon that she would usually drop me off at before disappearing….. The couple that stayed there were very kind to me, and I l-lo-lov, favored the little boy who was there only child." Kyoko said after she turned her head down facing the floor.
Lory was flabbergasted. He couldn't believe she was opening so much of her past to him. He fought so hard to keep his face straight, in fear if she saw his emotions that she would stop.
"I came to Tokyo with the same boy when he asked me. I never regretted it. Even if I had to do three jobs on the same day to pay for the apartment. He rarely even went to the apartment after he started to get famous. I didn't care. So long as I got to see him once in awhile. Then one day at one of my jobs he asked me to bring him some food from whatever job I was at. I was so happy. I told the manager that I had gotten a delivery order, and they let me go…" She said while her face started to become darker. The atmosphere around her started to look black.
Lory was so far engrossed in her story that he didn't see the difference in the space around her, or that he was leaning forward about to fall off his chair.
"I heard him talking when I entered his dressing room. I didn't want to interrupt him because it sounded really serious. So I hung back regrettably. He started talking about me somewhere in the conversation. He said stuff like I was a housemaid to him. All the way back to our childhood even, and he even said the only reason he brought me along was to do his laundry and pay for his house. He then proceeded to say that his parents tried to get him to marry me back in Kyoto. He said that he would never do such a thing to such a 'Plain and boring woman who has no sex appeal.'" by this point Kyoko's face was twisted in anger, and the dark aura around her was growing more intense.
Lory was starting to lose his control on his mask. He felt pity for Kyoko and anger for the guy who had said such things.
"You see president. I put everything I had to help him. He repaid me by saying all those mean things. I had poured my heart out to him and he just simply crushed it and threw it away." Kyoko said softly.
"Ah! But Kyoko-" Lory began.
"I never want to be hurt like that again." Kyoko cut him off.
Meanwhile with Ren
"Aya! There's the door to the president's office. Since I don't see Sebastien, Lory must be talking to him." Ren thought aloud.
As Ren approached the door he noticed that it was slightly open. He looked in to see who was inside.
Ren instantly saw Kyoko. He noticed the dark aura around her. He was about to go inside and make his presence known when she started talking, and thought better of it.
Inside of Lory's office
"President how can you say 100% sure that if I told Ren that I love him that he won't just use me like the boy in my past, and then just toss me away when he's done?" Kyoko asked the president in an all too calm voice.
Lory was having a battle within himself. He knew it wasn't right to confess Ren's feelings to her, but she was so in need of happiness.
On the other side of the door outside
Ren was too surprise by this news. He took a couple steps back until he hit the wall on the opposite side. When he hit the wall his knees lost all strength to hold him up, and he slowly slid to the floor.
A/N: I hope you liked it! I put the setting after chapter 202. Chapter 203 is out but this is how I felt it should have gone when I was reading the raws (looking at the pictures mostly).
Please review/fav./follow! I will reply to everyone who reviews! :) Thanks! :)
