Hello everyone! Please enjoy and review! Also, if you have any manga/ anime recommendations, that would be great too!:)
Shou was sitting in his room, lying on the bed with his hands behind his head and looking up at the ceiling. Usually, he would be excited on this day since he would be leaving for the Summer Bash in an hour or so, and there would be too many hot girls for him to count there, but he wasn't happy at all. There would still be the hot girls,...but there was no Kyoko, and this made him unhappy. It was a waste to be surrounded by sexy bodies, but not want them.
'Maybe I should go pay her a quick visit.' he thought, but quickly went against it. 'We're taking flight in an hour, I won't be able to make it.' He sat on the end of the bed and groaned in frustration.
"What's wrong Shou?!" He didn't notice Mimori enter his room.
"Haven't you ever heard of knocking?!" he growled. Mimori pouted and folded her arms across her chest.
"I did, but you wouldn't answer it, so I let myself in!"
"How?" Mimori blushed and played with the ends of her hair.
"...I flirted with the guard a bit-, BUT THAT DOESN'T MEAN I'M CHEATING ON YOU! "
'You can't call it cheating, if we aren't dating' he thought, but didn't say.
"What are you doing here anyway? I have to leave in an hour." Mimori pouted.
"I know! That's why I came to see you!" He hand dropped from her hair, and she sat on the bed next to him. "I know there's big actresses at the Summer Bash, and I...wanted to make sure-" He didn't have the patience to sit there and listen to the rest. He rose from the bed and made his way to the living room, sprawling himself across the sofa. Mimori followed him, and plopped herself right on top of him.
"What are you doing?!" he yelled. Mimori flinched.
"I...I just love you, and..." Shou softened at those words. He remembered when Kyoko would always say it to him. How she would tell it to him each and every day, doing every thing she could to support him,...and he took those things for granted. He didn't know what he was losing out on. He admitted that he was a fool for thinking she was just a maid to him, when he loved her all along. He had to get her back.
Shoko came into the room just then and saw the intimate display. She glared at the boy. Shou put his hands up in his defense, and she sighed.
"Mimori, you have to leave now."
"But-"
"He have a plane to board in a while, and you can't stay." Mimori pouted, but she got up and went to the door. Shoko moved out of her way.
"Bye Shou" she waved. "And don't do anything with the girls over there! I love you!", and she was gone. Shoko closed the door behind her and glared, folding her arms across he chest and tapping her foot. Shou sat properly on the coach.
"What are you doing?! I thought you changed and realized your feelings for Kyoko, but you're here flirting with Mimori? Why do you have her over here when you're about to leave?!"
"I didn't tell her to come over! She just did!"
"And you let her in?!"
"No, the guard did." Shoko took a deep breath.
"Why was she on your lap?" He shrugged, and Shoko really tried to hold her temper. "Do you really think you'll be able to win her over again, when you're still like this?" Shou glared.
"I'm the reason she's in the show business, and why she's doing so well!" He pointed a thumb at himself to emphasize. "I'm still the biggest part in her heart, just in a different space. All I have to do is show her how much I care for her, and then she'll remember just who she belongs to." Shoko placed a hand on her forehead to stop the pounding.
"Shou have you learned nothing?"
"What?"
"Do you really think it's that easy?"
"Ye-"
"Because it's not. When you saw her for the first time again after your separation, didn't she seem completely different?" Shou thought back at how different she looked. How beautiful she looked. His breath was taken away, and he couldn't take his eyes off of her. She was mesmerizing, and her acting was even better. He never knew that side of her. She was always too busy taking care of him to take care of herself. His head bowed in shame. She was always beautiful and mesmerizing, he was just too conceited to see it, and know he lost her, but he still had a chance to make it right, and make her his. He looked at Shoko.
"What do I do?" Shoko smiled.
"For one, no more flirting around. Show her that you're serious. Don't force her to do things like on Valentine's day, that'll just make her hate you more. You don't want hate. Slowly let her accept you as a friend- "
"But I don't want to be just a frie- "
"THEN! Make her feel special, and she'll remember those feelings she held for you once before."
"How?"
"How what?"
"How do I make her feel special?" Skoko's eyes shot up.
'Is he asking me for advice on how to make a move on a girl?' Shou blushed.
"YOU SAID YOURSELF THAT SHE CHANGED! SO HOW DO I DEAL WITH IT?!" Shoko cleared her throat.
"Well...what are some things you remember her liking?" Shou thought for a moment.
"Ummm..." Shoko looked at him dully.
'Don't tell me he was so full of himself that he knows absolutely nothing about her.'
"OH! She like fairy tales!"
"Fairy tales?"
"Yeah! We were passing by this store once, and she saw this perfume in the shape of a swan. She gave it her own little name. Forgot what it was though." Shoko put a finger on her chin, then looked at the watch on her hand.
'Don't have time for that'
"Well how about when you come back, you surprise her with a gift that has something to do with fairy tales? Maybe surprise her with that swan or something, but it has to be from the heart. I don't think she will except it if it's expensive, but you don't have to tell her the price. We don't have time to visit her now, so it'll have to wait. We can't miss your flight." Shou grumbled, making Shoko smile.
"Also, do something about Mimori, you can't hurt her like you did Kyoko. You have to sit down and explain it to her. No phone call. No email. No note with a rose. You have to talk to her. Got it?" Shou groaned. " It'll show Kyoko how much you've grown, and that you won't hurt her like you did before." Shou glanced at her, then sighed.
"Fine" he whined.
"Good. Now let's get going before you miss the flight." Shou got up and trotted out the door. He didn't know what awaited him across the ocean.
