Chapter 6
Only a few days had pasted when Ren finally gave Kyoko a call to plan a time for her to cook dinner for the two of them. It was a Tuesday and neither of them had any jobs lined up for the evening so it was a date, well not really but Ren could hope. He was slowly dying. He had only seen Kyoko once since the day he dropped her off at her home and it was only long enough to greet each other before they went their separate ways.
Kyoko finished her day first so she went to wait for Ren at his final job. She sat on a bench outside while she waited. She started thinking about what to make for dinner and slowly she got lost in her thoughts. It was at that time when Ren exited the building and when he saw her sitting there lost in her own world he decided to surprise her.
He slowly walked up behind her, her leaned over so his mouth was right next to her ear and said as enthusiastically as possibly. "It's a fairy, a real Fairy flying down the street." Kyoko was out of her seat and frantically searching for this fairy. That was not there. Which she slowly realized. Much to her great disappointment. She turned to glare at Ren once she came to terms with the fact the he had tricked her.
"Ren did you have to." She cried. But all he could do was laugh at her with her down cast face and hint of tears. "I am truly sorry. Well not really but you were so lost in your thoughts that I could not help myself." He retorted with smile. "Fine… I guess I could forgive you… but just this once. Lets just go get the food and make dinner." Ren could hardly believe how cut she was when she spoke with a pout on her face he could only smile as he spoke again, "Ok lets get going."
The car ride was not very pleasant as neither said much, Kyoko was upset with Ren for what he did and Ren was smiling at the mere memory of Kyoko's face. Things started to lighten up when they got to the store and started picking up things for dinner. It was Kyoko's turn to laugh. Food shopping was not his forte and it was very noticeable. Kyoko quickly picked out what they needed and when they went to pay for it a fight ensued. Kyoko tried her hardest to pay for their food but in the end Ren won as he charmed the cashier.
They talked about their jobs and how life had been for them since they have been apart. As Kyoko worked life a whirlwind in kitchen Ren stood back to watch her as they chatted. Dinner and the dinner preparations did not take long. It was a simple meal but neither minded. Since they had plenty of time and Ren did not feel like letting Kyoko leave yet they decided to watch a movie.
It was a simple movie that neither was in which made it easier for them to watch for they did not have the need to feel embarrassed. Just watching the movie was not Ren's plans though. They were sitting on the couch and about ten minutes into the movie Ren put his arm on the back of the couch, not around her shoulders just on the back of the couch.
Kyoko did not notice his small movement as she continued to watch the movie. Through out the movie Ren slowly moved his arm closer and closer to Kyoko. About half way through his arm ended up around Kyoko. He expected her to movie away or some how reject him yet she did not. It surprised him even more when she moved closer into his side. But he could not be happier, she had not rejected him; she even accepted his affection, even if only a little.
They spent the whole movie like that. Once the movie ended neither of them moved nor did they speak. They just sat there enjoy each other's company. After half an hour Ren turned to look at the girl beside him only to see that she had fallen asleep. He could not help but chuckle, of course she fell asleep. He slowly removed his arm and went to get the guest bed ready for her.
He came back to get her an das he picked her up he could not help but stare at her beautiful sleeping face. He gently laid her in the bed and removed her shoes for her and left her to sleep. Right before he turned the light off he turn and took on last look at her. He turned the light off and closed the door. As he went to bed himself he wondered what the morning would bring.
Author's Note
I am sorry. I had hoped that I would not have to leave another one of these but I guess my readers should know why I have not been updating. I live out in the country and I have satellite Internet that is greatly affected by the weather as well as limits on Internet usage. I will update when possible but often times my internet does not allow for it. I am truly sorry I will get the new chapters to the readers as soon as I can.
