I loved writing the scene in which Ren and Kyoko were playing Sakura and Hiroshi. I hope you guys like it too. I put that scene in italic so we can differentiate easier.

Things I own: A car that just broke down again… -_-

Things I don't own: Skip Beat! I wish I was that awesome

"Did you wait long for me?" Ren asked her. She jumped surprised. She was so engrossed in her conversation with Sho that she didn't acknowledged her surroundings.

"Not at all." She smiled back at him. Her sempai smiled back. It has been two years since she first met him. He became a teacher to her, and soon she realized that she had talent. Ren made sure to bring that out of her in every job she took, and was amazed at her. She wasn't that sixteen year old girl after revenge, she was a women full of talent and passion for her job. "Shall we go?" Ren smiled in reply. Although they had worked previously together in Dark Moon, this was going to be their first job as a couple on screen. The president and Ren's manager were so thrilled to finally see some of that chemistry finally out in the clear, that they promised to be on the most of the filming. But not today. Ren and Kyoko were to do a reading with the rest of the crew and understand their characters better.

"I have bad news for you Kyoko." He interrupted her gaze of thoughts. She turned to face him.

"What's wrong Ren?" She asked worriedly.

"Sho is in charge of the song for our characters, so he will be working with us for the first month. He said he wanted to get the feel of the characters so he could create a perfect song." Removing his attention from the road, he started at her for a few seconds. He was afraid of seeing what reaction this would cause on her. After all, he understood very well why she hated him so much. He remembers clearly, when they were pretending to be brother and sister, and Ren had fallen too deep into Cain Reed persona. She hugged him tightly, and got out of her character, and cared about him not as a sister, but as a friend. She told him about her relationship with her mother, Sho, and how she did everything for him. Hearing him saying those awful things about her to his manager, her wanting to change her life and how Ren was the rock to his world. He was so touched by her honesty that he, too, shared to her his life story. First by admitting he was Corn, explaining to her about Kuon and his dark past. From that day on, Ren and Kyoko became closer. She knew she liked him, he knew he liked her, but words were still unspoken.

"It's okay Ren." She smiled at him. "I don't wanna waste my life hating him. I wanna live too." She turned to face the window again. The words Sho told her that evening still ringing in her head. So stupid, she thought, he doesn't have an effect in my life anymore. But why are those words still in my head.

The rain intensified. Sakura stood in the rain, hoping it would wash away her fears, her pain, but most of all her tears.

"Amazing isn't it. She goes into character so easily.I can truly see her pain, her desperation of not having Hiroshi around. " Sho hear the director mentioning to somebody. At least ten people sat side by side, away from the made up rain, securely watching the scene thru the television attached thru the camera.

She walked to the bus stop, avoiding the seats. Memories of her and Hiroshi together, in that same bus stop, in what seemed a life time away. A life where happiness lived in her heart. She feels someone near her, and is surprised when the rain stops hitting her. She turns slowly to understand what happened. Their eyes meet.

"I wish she would look at me like that" Sho thought. It was amazing how his hatred to Ren increase tenfold. That was his woman. How dared Ren look at her like that?

Hiroshi 's free hand grabs her arm. Their eyes not once evade from each other's gaze. Sakura didn't feel cold anymore. Hiroshi pushes her to him. He drops the umbrella and holds her in a hug that sucked any sadness away. To Sakura, in that moment, it didn't matter that her father was minutes away from dying, and Hiroshi 's family just announced his engagement to another woman. All that matter was that they were together. She moved her face from his chest, only to find solace in his hands. He placed his hands in her cheek and is moved when she closed her eyes. Together they moved closer, until their lips met in the sweetest encounter. It was a kiss full of love, full of passion, but most of all, full of goodbyes. Hiroshi broke the kiss, staring at her eyes for a few more seconds. He wanted to engrave that moment in his memory. The way her hair, drenched from the rain, fell on her face. The way her eyes were full of pain. The softness of her lips. Her smell. Anything to make the rest of his life bearable. Once he was satisfied with the mental picture, the picked his umbrella and walked away. Never in his life, did walking hurt so much.

"Cut! And that is a wrap for today." The rain stopped, and managers ran to their stars with towels to dry them. This was the last scene of the day, everybody was tired, and grumpy, but applauses were heard all around them. Ren and Kyoko bowed in thanks. They were happy with the scene just concluded, knowing that both expressed all of their feelings so well. They walked to the director, and were showered with compliments. "Amazing! There were no dialogues, but I felt every single emotion. Love, anguish, desperation, longing but most of all pain. You two are simply amazing!" he turned to face Sho "Now imagine how perfect that scene will be with your song. I think this song is perfect for you to draw inspiration. I will give you a copy, so you can watch it many times you need." Sho smiled in return and thanked the director. He bowed to everyone and thanked them. He started walking away.

"Great. That is all I needed, to see this scene over and over again…" He walked angrily to where his car was, but stopped when he heard his name. He turned to face the voice of his manager and was surprised to the scene he clearly saw. Ren took his hand and placed it on top of Kyoko. She smiled brightly and accepted. Together, holding hands, they walked to their tends so they could dry up and go home. The only noise heard in that busy city center wasn't the cars in the busy center of Tokyo nor the workers destroying the set. All anyone heard was Sho's heart breaking apart, and a silent tear that traveled from his eyes, to his lips until falling to the ground.
