A/N: I do not own Skip Beat
Moko who was following her friend couldn't get there fast enough. He had gotten to her first. Moko could hear Kyoko and Sho fighting, however she couldn't see them because there were too many people surrounding the pair.
"You weren't invited so Why are you here?!" Kyoko screamed rubbing her arm.
"How do you know if I wasn't invited? Anyways it's not like it matters, half the people her probably weren't invited." Sho answered sounding haughty. "Honestly it's hard to believe you were invited. Your attitude is so cold and aloof. You're always alone, you only have one friend, and even your own parents thought it was best to leave you-"
SLAP!
She slapped him; it was a good hard loud slap. Sho was stunned by her actions that he acted before he thought. He raised his hand to strike at her, but was then stopped. He looked back and saw a guy taller than him and with brown hair holding his wrist.
"You should leave." The guy said firm and calmly.
Sho regained his composure and answered, "Get off me man!" He yanked his arm away. "Why should I?"
"This is my house and my party, so leave now before I get angry." Rens face was calm, yet his eyes said otherwise.
Sho left and Ren breathed slowly. He looked to where Kyoko should have been but she wasn't there anymore.
He had been new this year to West High School. Many knew of him because his parents, his father an actor and his mother a model and clothing designer. He made many 'friends' his first day, but all only seemed interested in him for his looks, money, and connection. One day as he was rushing to get to his class he dropped his school ID and Kyoko picked it up for him.
"Excuse me! Wait!" Ren heard a voice call after him. He had a hat and sunglasses on hoping to disguise himself. He started to walk a little faster when he heard her call after him again. "Please wait! You dropped something." He stopped, when she caught up to him she was panting and out of breath. "Here you are, you dropped this." She handed him his ID. He waited for her to recognize who he was. Northing. No little squeals or loud screams. "Um, this is yours right?" She cocked her head slightly arm still stretched out with his ID in her hand.
"Oh Yeah sorry it's mine." He reached for his ID and quickly put into his pocket. As soon as he was about to thank her she started walking away. Now it was his turn to stop her. "Hey wait," she stopped turned around and he froze. She looked so sad and lifeless, there was no emotion shown on her face and her eyes looked empty. "I uh, thanks" was all Ren could say. Kyoko nodded her head and sped off down the hall.
CRASH! He heard the sound of something broken and that brought Ren out of his reminiscence.
As Sho and Ren were having their little dispute Moko had made her way to Kyoko. Moko put an arm around Kyoko and they walked back to Moko's car. The ride was completely silent. Moko didn't know what to say to comfort Kyoko. She had prayed that Sho wouldn't be there at the party. It seemed that the Gods were against Kyoko for whatever reason.
At kyoko's apartment door step she looked at Moko and that one look said everything.
"Would you like me to stay the night?" Moko asked. Kyoko nodded and smiled a little. Moko knew that Kyoko was scared of being alone tonight, especially after seeing Sho. Kyoko isn't scared of Sho, but seeing him brought back horrible memories. That night Kyoko and Moko talked late into the night.
