Me: LOOOL(: Alright :D Don't blame me if Kyoko gets pregnant

Kyoko: What..?

Ren: I AM THE FATHER :D

Me: We should start the chapter.

Kyoko: What's this about me getting pregnant?

Ren: LET'S GET THIS CHAPTER STARTED!

Kyoko: Uhm, okay…

Me: Hehe :D

Kyoko knew this man was dangerous from the start. But, she never thought this would happen. The locks that guarded her heart were gone. She tried so hard, but he made it easy for her to fall. She was falling deeply into those deep, chocolate eyes and warm arms.

"Mogami-san?" a voice awakened her from her deep thoughts. She slowly sat up.

"Yes?" She whispered.

"Can I come in?" the voice asked.

"Um, yes?" She answered uncertainly. The voice chuckled and entered. Kyoko knew it was a mistake to look. He was tall, graceful, and warm. He just stole her eyes whenever he entered the room. She should've known. She held her breath while he sat on the end of the bed. He looked over and looked deeply into her amber eyes.

"How are you feeling?"

"A little light-headed. You are going to work right?" She asked threateningly. He looked down and fumbled with his fingers.

"No…" he said softly. She wanted to throw the pillow at him.

"You have to! You can't stay here for-COUGH COUGH- my-COUGH-sake! What will people think-ACHOO- if you don't-COUGH-show up!" She screamed and her voice cracked at the end.

"Look at you! You can barely say a sentence without coughing or sneezing!" He pointed out disapprovingly.

"You can't-ACHOO-stay! I will make –COUGH- you go!" She declared.

"You can barely get up let alone push me out the door. Plus, I already had Yashiro-san clear my schedule so do you want to trouble him by putting my schedule back?" he asked. She shook her head but regretted. Her head started spinning and then all of a sudden her head was on his chest.

"Hm? What happened?" she asked sleepily.

"You almost blacked out!" He exclaimed. She rubbed her eyes.

"Maybe…I should get some sleep. Sorry for always troubling you." She mumbled. This girl is too considerate.

"Mogami-san, you never trouble me." He said so softly that it was barely audible. Her heart fluttered."If only you could be by my side forever." He said so quietly that she couldn't hear over her fast-beating heart. He got up, straightened his pants and started walking away.

"Where are you going?" She asked with a little bit of fear in her voice. He turned and warmly smiled.

"To the living room. If you need anything just call my name. I'll come running anytime from anywhere." He said with a gentle voice. I can't let him wiggle his way into my heart. Not now. But, this feeling is stronger than what I felt for Shotaro. It's much more powerful and also gentle. With Shotaro, it was weak and barely there. What should I do? Should I fall or stand?

"Tsuruga-san?" She whispered. He walked over and knelt down on both knees.

"Yes?"

"Stay here until I fall asleep." She asked in the softest tone that even Ren, who was only 5 inches away, could barely hear. Kyoko was blushing so much that she thought that she thought she would melt.

"Of course, princess." He said while smiling. She's making such a cute face. Kyoko nodded and snuggled into the bed. She closed her eyes and pretended to be asleep already. Ren, who thought she was asleep, reached out his hand and brushed all the loose hair from her face. He brushed the back of his hand on her smooth cheek. Was Tsuruga-san always this gentle? I want to stay like this longer. Kyoko felt her fever taking over and fell asleep. Ren wanted to stay here forever and just watch her sleep. Even her breathing entranced him. He regretted not turning off his phone. He heard it buzzing in the living room and sighed. He slowly rose and walked over to the coffee table in the living room. He picked it off of the table and looked at the caller ID. Why is the President calling me?

"Hello?" he asked cautiously. The voice on the other line sighed.

"Why do you sound so afraid?" Lory demanded to know.

"Because you are you."

"Yeah, yeah, yeah. Anyways, I heard Kyoko is sick and she's at your place."

"Yes she is. Why?"

"Have you made a move yet!" a voice screamed in the background. Ren heard the phone being exchanged. He also heard Lory mumbling on how he wanted to know first.

"Hello?" Ren asked.

"KUON!" his father screamed with happiness.

"Yes?"

"You sound too formal. You don't sound like you're talking to your father!" Kuu accused.

"HI DAD!" Ren yelled but not too loud.

"Much better, Kuon. Anyways, we are dying to know. HAVE YOU MADE A MOVE YET!" Kuu demanded. Ren sighed.

"No, Kyoko will hate me if I did. She vowed to never love again and she thinks I hate her, remember? So I see no reason why she would even begin to like me." Ren explained.

"You are blind." A woman's voice said in the background.

"Give the phone to Mom. Now." Ren commanded. Kuu grumbled while giving Julie the phone.

"KUON, MY BABY!"

"Mom, what do you mean that I am blind?" Julie huffed at this.

"Not telling! She has to tell you, I can't tell you anything."

"Do you mean that she loves me?" Ren asked with astonishment. Julie bit her lip and wished she kept her stupid mouth shut.

"I can't say that. I can only tell you that she has opened up to you. Be glad that she thinks that you are her friend at least. I can't definitely tell you that she loves you but she is fond of you." She explained."I saw this when we bonded yesterday. When she talked about you, her eyes got softer and her smile got more angelic."

"That's more than I could ever imagine." Ren said breathy.

"Okay, anyways, will she be better soon?" Julie asked, worriedly.

"She'll probably be better tomorrow. Just in time for the shoot."

"Good. Tell her I'm sorry that I pushed her yesterday! I feel like this is my fault." Julie whimpered.

"Mom, its fine. She'll probably tell you that. I am angrier at myself because it's my fault she is sick in the first place."

"How?"

"Ren?" a voice called. Ren whirled around to see Kyoko standing there.

"I got to go now, . I'll tell her you said hello." Ren said formally.

"Oh, she's there. Okay bye. I'll see you tomorrow for work." Julie closed the phone and saw two men whining about wanting to know what Ren said. Julie sighed and started explaining while Ren walked over to Kyoko.

"Mogami-san, you should stay in bed." He said worryingly.

"I wanted to see you sooner. It would be too long of a wait to call you over." She said while tugging down his shirt that she was wearing. Ren was blushing like crazy by now. What did she just say?

"What do you mean?"

"S-e-c-r-e-t." she said while pulling out Natsu for a bit. Ren sighed.

"Are you Natsu?"

"No, I'm Kyoko!" Ren chuckled while Kyoko was blushing.

"Princess, you should be in bed."

"Carry me." Ren's eyes widened. He still remembered when she was practically trying to jump out of his arms the last time he carried her."Please?" she asked with puppy eyes. A 20-year old was being pushed around by a 17-year old again. He sighed and picked her up bridal-style. She snuggled into him and wrapped her arms around his neck while almost choking him. He gripped her tighter or else he would become jelly. He walked into his room and set her down.

"Are you hungry?" he asked unsteadily.

"Not really. Are you?"

"No." An awkward silence followed.

"Ren?"

"Yes?"

"How do you-nevermind." She mumbled and snuggled into his bed. I wish I was that bed.

"I'll wake you up in about an hour so you can take your medicine and eat okay?" he said while walking away.

"Ren, stay here." Forever with me.

"Of course." He walked back and they repeated what they did before. After Ren had a self-war with him and his mind on whether or not to snuggle in bed with her, he walked back to the kitchen and made porridge again. He added vegetables that were already cooked and all he had to do was warm them up. After he finished cooking, he picked up his script that was on the coffee table. He opened to a random page and started reading.

The door of his room creaked and he saw the beautiful girl that he loved. She was standing there with her short nightgown and her pillow.

"Hey." She said after a minute of silence. He stood from his chair and walked over.

"You shouldn't be wearing that! You'll get a cold and I might-. "He cut off. She looked at him suspiciously and tugged his shirt.

"You might what?" she asked. He tried to stay composed with his poker face but the blush started to appear.

"I might attack you." He said quietly in almost a whisper. The girl's eyes widened and softened with contentment.

"You can." She whispered and he looked down at her in surprise.

"What do you mean, Miya?" he asked breathlessly. She looked up with her eyes shining and lip quivering.

"I love you. Make me yours, Rui." She said steadily. His eyes widened with shock and then softened lovingly but then his face fell into a solemn one.

"Miya, you know I can't. We have only a master and servant relationship, nothing more." He lied while grinding his teeth. She looked at him with her eyes piercing through his lie.

"I know you don't mean that. I know you feel the same way. Please, Rui, take me out of my misery and loneliness." She begged while tugging at his shirt with both hands while dropping the pillow. He put his hands on her shoulders and was tempted to embrace her but at the last moment pushed her out the door.

"I'm sorry. I can't love." He breathed out while closing the door. Miya sank to the ground and cried in sadness. Rui, who was on the other side of the door, slid down his door and sighed. He wanted to cry but wouldn't because of his pride as a man. But, eventually, he let out a single tear and let it slide down his cheek.

Ren groaned after reading. I have to act like this! He wanted to hear those words from her mouth but not saying while acting. He threw the script onto his couch and plopped next to it. He didn't want to read anymore. The more he read the greed inside him grew immensely. He looked at the clock and saw an hour had long past and he walked quickly to his room. She seemed to have rolled around and she had only her upper chest and one leg covered in the blanket. She is trying to tempt me, isn't she? He sighed and gently shook her. She slowly opened her eyes after almost biting Ren's finger off.

"Hm? What is it?" she asked groggily.

"Time to eat and take medicine, Kyoko." He smiled. Her name just naturally rolled off his tongue. She started blushing at the sound of her name. She slowly sat up and swung her legs to the side of the bed. She stood and stumbled a bit. Ren caught her and had her lay on the bed.

"I have to get up to eat you know." She said. He chuckled.

"I'll bring it to you so sit tight." He replied and walked to go get her porridge. He tasted it and decided it was the best he could possibly do. He ladled some into a small bowl and set it on a tray with a cup of warm tea next to it. He walked back and set it on her lap.

"Where's the medicine?" she asked after inspecting the porridge.

"Eat first then I'll bring the medicine and water." He said. She nodded and ate. She saw him watching her from the corner of her eyes and blushed while looking back down. He noticed that he was staring at her after she did this." You eat so cutely." He blurted out. He slapped his hand on his mouth while Kyoko's eyes widened.

"I eat cutely?" she repeated.

"Um, yes." He admitted with embarrassment.

"Okay, then." She said while looking back down. Why is my heart trying to jump out of my chest? She put her hand on her chest and Ren looked at her worryingly.

"Does your chest hurt or something?" he asked alarmingly. She shook her head.

"No, my heart was beating really fast." She said. She hit herself on the forehead for saying that."I mean, I mean, I mean, I don't know." She admitted while slouching her shoulders. He laughed a musical one and sat on the bed.

"Its fine, Kyoko." He said.

"You keep calling me Kyoko." He looked up with his eyes widened.

"Should I not?" he asked while biting his lip. Did I cross the line?

"No, it's okay," She looked up at him smiling," It's just that you're the only one that calls me Mogami so I thought it was a special. What am I saying?" she said while blushing and slapping her cheeks with her both of her hands.

"So, you mean, I am the only one that is allowed to call you Mogami-san?" he asked with astonishment. What really got him was when she nodded."Alright, I am calling you Mogami-san. I might occasionally call you Kyoko though. Oh, by the way, you called me Ren earlier."

"I did!" she shouted with her eyes wide.

"You didn't know?"

"No."

"Then how-oh you might have had a really high fever. You were a bit needy earlier." He teased. She blushed a pomegranate color. He touched her forehead and then his."Good, your fever went down. You'll probably be better by tomorrow but it was so fun to take care of you!" he said jokingly.

"It was?" she said in a small voice.

"Yeah, I never had to do this before. It was so new. But now I know how hard it is. Sorry for that time when I was sick." He apologized.

"Its fine, you were cute when you had a fever." She blurted out. She earned a bruise from her hand. Ren's eyes widened.

"I was, wasn't I?" He teased again. She blushed while nodding. Before they knew it, the porridge was gone and so was the tea. He got up quickly and grabbed a water bottle and medicine. He set it on the tray and Kyoko cracked open the pills. She quickly put them in her mouth and chugged down some water.

"Tsuruga-san?"

"Yes?" he picked up her tray and started to get up.

"Can I call you Ren?" she asked quietly. Ren almost dropped the tray. What did she say! He froze while Kyoko was fidgeting."Nevermind, it's okay."

"Kyoko, call me Ren. We are friends right?" he asked. She nodded so much that she looked like a bobble head." Say it."

"R-r-r-r-e-e-n." she stuttered.

"I'm sorry, what did you say?" He asked teasingly while cupping his ear with his free hand.

"Ren." She said clearly. He nodded with satisfaction of his name being called from her lips.

"Good." Was all he could say.

"Thank you."

"Anytime, Mogami-san. Remember, wherever you are, I'll come running." He sincerely said. She felt that in his voice and her eyes shone like jewels.

"Thank you for having me fall for you." She said in the quietest voice so that he didn't hear. He walked out and set the tray down. He sighed while sinking into a chair.

"How does she mange to do this to me?" he wondered aloud. He chuckled and got up to take a shower. Kyoko looked at the clock and it read 8:30pm. I should go take a shower. She gathered some clothes that he set out for her if she needed them. She walked to the bathroom and opened the door. There she saw Ren taking a shower. The door was glass and, since he just got in, it wasn't fogged up. This time, she looked up and down. He has a nice toned body that is tanned to a nice color. His hair is sexy when it's wet. Wait what! Ren quickly turned off the water and grabbed a nearby towel. He wrapped it around his area and stepped out.

"I AM SO SORRY, REN!" she yelled. He laughed.

"Its fine, I guess." At least this time she actually looked unlike last time. Maybe she is finally seeing me as a man!

"But, I looked at your body! I should be punished!" she wailed.

"Kyoko, it is okay! It's natural, sort of."

"But, but, but!" He put a finger on her lips.

"Calm down." She nodded.

"I am sorry for disturbing your shower. I'll just go now." She started walking out the door when Ren grabbed her wrist.

"Want to take a shower together?" He asked. She froze and started blushing."I am joking. I know you wouldn't like that." He sighed on the inside. She shuffled out and sank to the floor after she closed the door. She was blushing scarlet now. Not only did she see his body, but he asked to take a shower with her! She slapped her cheeks and it was confirmed that it wasn't a dream. Ren, on the other side of the door, sighed and took off the towel and went back into the shower to resume his shower. Kyoko knew this man was making his way into a special space in her heart. She tried to stop it then but couldn't. The feeling was too overwhelming for her demons to push out. Kyoko knew then. She knew that she was uncontrollably and definitely in love with Tsuruga Ren, the sexiest man in Japan.
