A/N: I know, impressed, huh??? I just felt like writing yesterday but ffnet was killing me so I couldn't update. But here it is. The EPILOGUE!!!!!

I looked at the house in front of me. Oh well, I need something to show her, don't I?

I walked in, ready to face anything.

Okay, maybe not.

But still.

Makino household **Third Person POV**

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

"Why do you mean you don't know where she is???"

"I thought she would have come back here!!!"

"You let her by herself!"

Grandmother Makino (N/A: does anyone know her name???) stepped in between the two, her palm stretched out.

"STOP IT!"

Both Ryo and Ruki's mother stopped at the same time, staring at the old, but young-looking woman (A/N: I know that doesn't make any sense but hey!!!):

"Mother, that's not good for your heart"

"What is not good for both of you is to treat Ruki like she is a child. She knows what she is doing, she is not 5 years old anymore!"

Both of them looked kind of ashamed.

Finally, after a long pause, Ryo spoke up.

"So, what are we supposed to do, just sit around and do nothing?"

"My boy, Ruki never got into any kind of trouble while you weren't in her life, so I'm sure she'll be fine."

The door suddenly opened.

**Ruki's POV**

I put my keys back in my pocket and closed the door behind me. I kind of lean against it so I could support myself for what might come next.

"RUKI MAKINO!!!" my mom yelled as loud as she could.

I flinched at her high-pinched voice. Boy, was she loud. And scary. And furious. I can't find any more synonyms but if I could, I would recite them right now in a long list and put a big stamp on it: 'Belongs to the blonde international supermodel over there that is going to kill her daughter in about 30 seconds'.

I looked around the room for support. Ryo was here, but he still hadn't got over the shock. My grandma was just grinning, something in her eyes telling me that she was on my side.

"What have you done, how could you???" my mom continued. She walked up to me and touched my freshly cut hair.

It was half spiky with fixing gel for the back part and the front part was longer, to my ears, the line of my hair in a zigzag on the left side.

"Ruki you look great" Ryo finally said, coming back from Pluto or something.

"Thanks Ryo!"

"I think you look great too, honey, long hair never suited you anyway. But now, how are you going to warn your friends about you being in a bad mood?"

I smiled at that comment. Then my eyes stopped on Ryo. He was grinning at me.

"Guess I'll try to be less in a bad mood then."

"But sweetie."

My gaze fell on my mom, she was leaning against the wall.

"Your hair, your beautiful hair. And I scheduled a photo shoot in a week, you can't go looking like this."

I took a deep breath. Come on Ruki, you have been memorizing this.

"Listen, mom, you can't just turn me into someone I'm not. If I want to have short hair, then I'll have short hair. If I want to have sex at 15, then I will. If I don't want to go to your photo shoot, then I won't go. What you don't understand is that I'm the one in control of my life, I can't take it anymore, you dictating me, I mean."

School on Monday

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

"Ruki???"

"Hey, Kazu, I need to talk to you, actually."

He looked at his feet.

I took him by the sleeve of his shirt and practically sat him down on one of the benches of the park.

"I know you like me and stuff but I'm with Ryo now, and you are still my friend, and I would like you to stop hurting yourself"

He had kept his head bowed the all time, but when I said that, he straightened up.

"How did you know???"

"Duh, Kazu, your sleeve is always moving up, it's not like I'm the only one who knows it."

"Okay"

"Uh? Okay what?" I said, confused.

"I'll stop cutting myself, but I just ask for one thing in return."

"What?"

He didn't answer and leaned into me, kissing me full on the lips. I didn't push him away, but I didn't let him get the wrong idea either.

After a couple of minutes, he backed off from lack of air.

"I thought you were better then that, frankly!"

"KAZU!"

He quickly got up and started running. I sprinted after him and got stopped by Ryo just before I got him. The coward just ran away.

"Grrr, Ryo, I almost had him!"

"I know, and I don't want anyone to think you're evil or something."

I thought about that for a moment.

"Sure, but if I were evil, you'll be the only one wanting me, so you wouldn't have any competition."

"True." he said, kissing me softly on the lips.

I guess life doesn't suck that much after all. Except for Kazu, of course. Wait until I get my hands on his skinny little chicken neck, he is going to pay.
