Alright, you can stop scolding and complaining to me that I am super late and that I need to quit some stuff because I am always so busy and have no time to write. Stop it now because otherwise you will miss the grand finale of Rocking With The Runaway. Yes, the grand finale! Here we go; the final chapter of Rocking With The Runaway!

Ichigo awoke first the next morning, snuggled in Ryou's arms. She got out of bed and slipped a long bathrobe on and looked at the clock. It read 10:13. So she calmly headed out the door of the room she and Ryou had shared the night before and walked into the breakfast area of the suite.

Everyone was waiting wearing their evening clothes. She yawned, and Mint stared at her. "Morning everyone," she said sleepily. Soon everyone's attention was on her as the huddled group of whispers settled down to a chilling silence.

"Is…is something wrong?" Ichigo asked. They all turned their heads away from her, to embarrassed to speak. "Um….alright then…."

"Ichigo, last night…..you and Ryou…." Lettuce started.

"Wha!" Ichigo dropped her bagel to the floor. "H….how did…I mean…who…"

"Well the door was locked and we were really worried about you so we picked the lock and saw you two."

Ichigo glared at Mint and Kish. "I oughtta…"

"Good morning everyone," Ryou yawned, stepping out of the room. All eyes focused on him. "Uh…is my hair really that bad?"

"They know."

"Huh? Know what?"

"About last night. About you and me."

Ryou's eyes got bigger. Then he guessed who had figured it out and for what reasons. "Let me guess. Mint and Kish. They wanted to see how Ichigo was holding up. So they picked the lock and saw us."

Ichigo gaped at Ryou. "Wow…." She said amazed. The two guilty party members nodded.

"Well I think it's about time we headed back west to Europe. How does that sound?" Ryou asked, changing the subject. "We've only been here for a day, but we need to head back."

Everyone lost focus on the previous subject. "We should be heading back now that you mention it…" Pai said. "The only people who haven't woken up are Zakuro and Keiichiro."

"Okay, let me get this straight! I am not going in to wake those two up! I don't need any more couples scarring me for life, so someone else can go!" Kish shouted. Everyone laughed as they checked Zakuro's room first. She wasn't there, and they found the two together in Keiichiro's room.

The two were sitting on the bed leaned against the headboard, still fully clothed in the previous days clothes. They held hands as their heads leaned against each other.

Mayalen gently shook Zakuro's shoulder. "Um….excuse me…..but we're going to leave soon Zakuro…."

Zakuro and Keiichiro stirred from their sleep at the same time. "Huh?" they both muttered. They looked around the room, and when realizing that they were holding hands, pulled them apart and blushed furiously.

"Ooh, what happened here?" Mint asked slyly.

Zakuro's face returned to its normal color. "Well, we were up all night talking….I guess we fell asleep…."

"Likely story; what really happened?"

Zakuro gave Mint an icy glare. Mint's face paled as she waved her hands around. "I kid, Zakuro, I kid! I believe you!"

"We're going to be going soon?" Keiichiro asked. Ryou nodded. "We'll be heading back to Europe to finish off touring their."

"Alright then. I'll get ready."

The rest of the morning was spent getting re-packed. At about 11:43, they gathered all their things and headed toward the desk, unaware that their was a visitor waiting for them downstairs.

"Here she comes now!" a familiar voice said from the end of the hallway that led to the lobby. The owner of the voice swooped up in a flash and grabbed Ichigo by the waist. "I've got her!"

"Masaya!" she gasped. As much as she struggled, he was too strong for her. He carried her to the lobby, her wiggling like a maniac. "I've got her, Mr. Momomiya. She won't escape this time."

"Dad!"

Her father smirked. "Its definitely a sad day indeed…your mother has passed away….but I knew her passing would bring you back; reunite us. We can be a family again! As long as you don't go running away again. I can get a hold of more security measures….."

"Ichigo!" Ryou called, running toward Mr. Momomiya and Masaya. Mr. Momomiya's face bunched up as he walked straight toward Ryou and without warning, punched him as hard as he could. "How dare you show your face after taking my daughter for a second time! I mean, separating her from her family, her future husband…"

"Future husband? Who?"

"This young man right here who has helped me track her down! Masaya Aoyama! Don't you worry Ichigo, we will have a wedding fit for a queen! Anything for you!"

Ichigo bit on Masaya's arm, and he howled in pain and released her. "But dad, listen to me! I am eighteen and you don't control my life anymore!"

He stopped. "W…..what did you say?"

"I said…..you don't control my life anymore….dad….I'm not the little girl I used to be….I'm still your Ichigo…but….I'm not the little girl who needs her dad to make decisions for her…."

He paused for a moment. Then he hung his head in shame. "I…..I cannot believe….how blind I was…."

"Daddy….I still want to get married….but not to him!" she shouted, pointing at Masaya. She then joined Ryou by his side. "I…I want to marry him….Ryou Shirogane…"

"Did….did you just say….Shirogane?" her father stuttered.

Ryou stepped forward and bowed in honor. "Sir, I promise to take good care of you daughter…."

"No….that's not it….your father….was he a scientist?"

"Yes. My father was a scientist."

"Shirogane! I remember now I met you when you were just a boy! Of course, Ichigo had just been born then. But your father was my business partner! He helped me create the first prototype for the cell phones used today!"

"So…father…does that mean you allow our marriage?" Ichigo asked.

"Allow it? Why wouldn't I? If it wasn't for Ryou's father, you wouldn't be who you are today!"

"What about me? I helped find Ichigo!" Masaya whined.

Mr. Momomiya turned to Masaya. "What do you get?" Ichigo shouted. "You're the one who faked me into believing our relationship was real and then trying to rape me…."

"Rape? You tried to rape my daughter!" Mr. Momomiya fumed.

"Yes, and Ryou was the one who came to save me!"

Mr. Momomiya's face boiled red with anger. "Get out of my site before I call the police!" he hollered, and Masaya took off.

"Um, dad. We've kind of got a tour to finish."

"A tour?" he asked, cooling down a bit. He then looked to everyone else. "I see. Well then, I best let you be on your way."

"Thank you dad. You know I always love you." She ran up and hugged her father, as he embraced her back and closed his eyes.

"You will always be my little girl, Ichigo. But I knew one day you would have to grow up and leave me. So I tried to stop that day from coming. But I guess I should stop trying and let you be happy now, shouldn't I?"

"I'll always be with you, dad."

…………………………………………………………………

Two years later, a letter arrived in the mail to everyone around, inviting them to the wedding of Ryou Shigogane and Ichigo Momomiya. Crowds gathered from around the world to watch this special day, and as Ichigo walked down the aisle, you could hear the beautiful sonatas of Mayalen on her saxophone, and the sweet soft sounds of Kaguya singing songs of love.

At the reception, Ichigo decided to catch up with her old friends. Ryou joined her and held her close, staying by her side. The paparazzi soon spotted the two chatting with their old friends and gathered around them. "Ryou, now that the world knows that Ichigo Momomiya is actually Meo, what is your excuse for the adventures you two shared?"

Ryou smiled, looking at Ichigo. "What can I say; I was just doing my job. A girl who had run away and ran into a band on the way. But I never knew that I would have fallen in love.

I guess you could say I was rocking with the runaway."

--The End--

I really hope you enjoyed this story. I am sorry to say their will not be an epilogue; this ending sums it up very well and I am not going to write an epilogue. Use your imagination! Well, since this story is over, I'll be starting up my other stories; Hybrid Theory, Another One Comes Across The Ocean, and Dangerous Confessions.

I again thank all my reviews for the support. Without you guys, I never would have finished. I can't thank you enough.

Read and review, over and out. –Nibzo
