I am such an ungrateful ho for taking so long! I kind of lost inspiration and couldn't get the words out so I worked on other fanfics and original pieces and now finally here is the 7th chapter. Sorry this is probs the last for a while :( Enjoy!

Dinner

Kyoko stared out of the window of Tsuruga-san's car until they arrived at a fancy Italian restaurant. The valet took the car, and only when the two were seated did Kyoko become aware of her surroundings.

"Such a beautiful place!" she exclaimed while staring up at the high ceiling covered in paintings.

"I thought you would like it." Smiled Ren softly.

"Wait, wasn't Yashiro-san supposed to meet us here?" Kyoko asked, looking back down to meet Ren's eyes.

Shit! I just made that up so she wouldn't think it was a date! Ren cursed to himself.

"Uhh… he said he couldn't make it. He felt ill." Ren said hastily.

"Oh! Is he okay? Should we pay him a visit?" Kyoko asked.

God damn it!

"Um, no. I don't think that'd be a good idea. Wouldn't want the star of a drama getting sick now." Ren replied with a gentle smile.

Kyoko smiled back bashfully and nodded before suddenly shivering. There was something in the room. Only one presence could induce this kind of-

"Fuuuu…" Reino blew chillingly down the back of Kyoko's neck. Kyoko quickly curled into her lap and smacked her hands over her mouth to stop the strangled cry that came from her lips.

"You!" she said in surprise, whipping around to face the Beagle.

"Hello, dearest. Would you care to join me for a dinner?" asked Reino with his most seductive voice as he drew up a chair beside her.

"Mogami-san, would you like me to request a private room?" Ren asked, trying his best to be civil.

"Ohh! Promiscuous! Taking the young lady to a room all alone with you!" exclaimed Reino mockingly.

Ren cleared his throat uncomfortably and couldn't help but notice that Kyoko had turned a vibrant shade of red.

"It's not anything special. She's stayed at my apartment before." Ren said calmly.

"Scandalous! Such a lady killer allowing a minor to sleep in his house alone?" Reino said again with a mocking tone.

Ren was seeing red and quickly stood. He grabbed Kyoko's hand and strode smoothly to the exit with the teen stumbling behind. Reino sat at the table still and swished wine in a glass like some villain from a movie.

"Tsuruga-san, where are we going?" Kyoko asked as they sped down the streets of Tokyo.

"My apartment. Screw fancy dinners, I really want your cooking right now." Ren said.

His apartment. Kyoko thought and turned red again. She had never really thought about it, but that was very risky considering Ren's popularity. She looked at Ren out of the corner of her eye shyly and blushed more. Does it really mean nothing to him?

Gah! It's so short! I'm sorry but I hope you liked it! God so many motherfucking centapedes in mah basement. I vaccumed them like a boss! :D
