Hello my sweeties, such a nice quiet afternoon both my partner and 3 year old are passed out on our bed after falling asleep watching a film together peaceful bliss for writing :D

The laughter coming from the room was infectious. Atsuko entered the room and was unable to keep the smile off her face looking at Kanae, Yashiro and Kyoko all on the verge of tears because they were laughing so hard whilst Ren looked rather upset for some reason, and not for the first time she realised.
I'm going to miss them all when Kyoko goes home soon.
Kyoko had been told with all her toxicology reports all settling back down to normal and her wound healing well she should be able to go home in the next two weeks which had made the actress and all her friends beam.
"So care to share the joke?" asked Atsuko. She had come to realise that even though most people thought celebrities above themselves, the people that came and sat with Kyoko were never like that. They were all down to earth, normal people.
Yeah some of them have their little quirks like the President and Kanae, but they're still nice people.
Ren dipped his head even lower to the bed. It seemed yet again the four of them were going through fanmail. Her question had just added yet again to the mirth of the three people and now she realised it was at Ren's expense. She waited for Kyoko to catch her breath once more then, while still laughing, she told Atsuko.
"Ren's just been propositioned by a nice young lady." that was all she could say before she and her two laughing companions were yet again rolling with laughter.
Kanae had her head on Yashiro's shoulder holding on to her chest while Yashiro still laughing was taking off his glasses, wiping tears from his eyes.
Atsuko didn't get the joke, but still couldn't help smiling broadly at how much it seemed to have tickled them. Ren handed the nurse a thick envelope addressed to him.
She guessed it must be something left by a fan. Opening it up she pulled out 3 items inside, first opening up the letter she read:
Hello my dear Ren-sama,
I cannot tell you how your recent behaviour has upset me, talking about your love for that other girl when we are simply meant to be together. I have enclosed some presents from myself and am awaiting your favourable reply.
If for your job while with me you have to keep up that façade relationship with that woman I will not complain as long as you hold me in your arms each night my dear.
Signed,
Your dearest lover
Sakura
Still unable to see this letter as funny, she turned to look at the people around the bed. She honestly found the letter quite disturbing. Whilst still giggling uncontrollably Kanae indicated she should look at the enclosed items. Atsuko gasped at the picture before her eyes. Putting her hands to her lips she fought back her own laughter
"Well she's very, erm...Nice looking."
That was all she could bear with before her sides split and she had to laugh, which brought on new waves from everyone including Ren now as he watched the nurse doubling over. He took the letter and items back from her as he looked back at the picture.
"How can you say that?"
His statement just seemed to make it even more funny for everyone else as Ren looked at the middle-aged man in the photo in a horrible cosplay as a young schoolgirl. He quickly stuffed the letter, picture and, to his horror, the thong back into the packet before he thought about it any more.
It took almost 40 minutes for them all to calm down and even after they had all regained control the three friends plus Atsuko only had to smile at each other in a knowing way before setting them all off again in fits of giggles. Ren took advantage of this good mood to speak to Kyoko
"Kyoko I actually need to speak to you about tomorrow."
Yashiro instantly stopped his giggling and Kanae thought he looked nervous as did Ren.
"I know I said I would be here every day, but I've been offered a new role, a very important one that I just don't think I can pass up. I need to arrive for the start of the meeting tomorrow really early and won't be getting back until really late, but I promise you I have told Yashiro to clear my schedule for Sunday so I can spend the entire day here with you."
Kyoko looked a little disappointed, but she knew how much acting meant to herself and Ren so she asked the only question she could ask of the man she loved who looked so worried,
"What type of role is it? How long will you be filming? Who's directing it?" she started asking loads of questions really excited for the man she loved.
"I can't really tell you much about it. I'm under contract you see not to disclose any information."
Her face fell as she looked at him carefully. No one in the room was laughing now.
"It's not another role like BJ is it?" she enquired, her voice sounding rather flat and cold.
Ren grasped her hand tightly.
"No my love, it is not a role like BJ. What I can tell you is, it is the type of role I have been waiting to play my entire life. It will be my greatest and biggest achievement to date and most likely the biggest one ever."
Her eyes shone at his words. She could see the fires of passion burning in his eyes as he smiled at her so lovingly she felt her heart skip a beat.
"OK Ren, I understand. But promise me when the time comes we will go and see your biggest achievement together."
He smiled and kissed her hand. "I wouldn't have it any other way."
The next day Kyoko was thrilled when not only Juliena and Okami walked in, but Maria and Momose too. She hugged them all, so happy to see them. As they sat down to the tea Okami had brought with her, Maria sat on Kyoko's lap as they sat around her bed, chatting together. Kyoko enquired about Kuu, Taisho and the President, but Juliena just shook her head.
"It appears we have been ditched by all the men today sadly." said Juliena with a mischievous smile. "So I have brought some more new catalogues so we don't get bored." she pointed to the 2 bags by the door as Kyoko laughed.
"Grandfather and Uncle Kuu have gone with Ren-sama to see about his new big project." Maria said knowingly as Juliena nodded and smiled.
"Do you know what it is?" Kyoko jumped at the chance to know more about it. "All Ren has said to me is he is under contract not to tell me and that it will be the biggest role off his entire life!" She couldn't keep the love out of her eyes and voice for the man she loved to have been offered such a part she felt so proud of him
"Grandpa wouldn't say." said Maria rather moodily. "And when I tried to listen in Sebastian-san caught me." she said using Kyoko's nickname for the President's special aide.
They all giggled at the girl's announcement. Juliena just shook her head at Kyoko as she looked enquiringly at her adoptive mother.
"No idea darling. Kuu just said it was a man's role and he and the President wanted to check out the paperwork as the President hasn't gone over any of it yet as it has been done in such a rush."
That made sense, Any script or new job for any of the LME talents had to go through the President first. She just nodded as she smiled at her second adoptive mother and repeated her earlier question.
"How's Taisho?" Okami smiled as she patted Kyoko's hand.
"He is fine my sweet, but we have closed the shop for the day as he has gone to see a friend of his who is sick. He just said it wasn't like we did it often and he really did want to go and see him. So I got to come and spend the day with you."
Kyoko smiled a warm, bright smile as she turned again to Momose and started talking about her acting and how it was progressing. She had already thanked her profusely for her kind words on 'Loose Lips' saying she had learnt so much from her and never saw her as anything but an amazing actress. No matter what anyone said Kyoko wouldn't agree with her so they gave up and spent one of the most enjoyable days looking through the designer catalogues. Juliena wrote down sizes and numbers for each of them to see what they would buy if they could, including some very nice lingerie.
It was around 2 am when Kyoko woke again. She wasn't sure why to begin with, but as she looked across at the side of the bed there sat Ren cradling her hand with his killer sparkling smile filled with so much warmth and love she could feel her whole body heating up. She swore her entire body was blushing.
"Ren?" She asked quietly looking at him.
"I'm sorry Kyoko. Did I wake you?" he stood and kissed her forehead softly.
"I don't know." she admitted.
"But I'm glad I woke up, as I got to see you." he bent again this time pressing his lips to hers. She matched his kiss and her heart filled and overflowed with not only her own happiness, but also his.
"I love you Kyoko." he said as he pulled away and rested his forehead on hers.
"I love you too Ren." she said as she made room for him on the bed to lie beside her.
The nurse on the night shift smiled an hour later when she went to check on her charge who was wrapped in the arms of her love asleep on his chest. She didn't wake them. There was no need as she silently walked away and back to the nurse's station to the Dark Moon special box set she was watching on the TV Lory had given them.
Her job was to look after the young woman and she saw nothing quite as therapeutic for her young charge as sleeping in the arms of the man she loved could give her.
