Chapter 75

"What do you think you're doing here Shien…" Ren said once they reach his condo. But it was hard to get here from LME since a few fans saw Shien and him together and draw the attention of the others to them. Thankfully some of Shien's bodyguards came in and help them get through without further delay. But once outside the building the ruckus made by the fans inside the building attracted more media from the other station.

"Hey Ren…" Shien said once she plop herself down the plush sofa resting her cheek on to her palm, "Refer to me as your master I won't respond to any less than that…" This time its Ren's turn to twitch.

"This girl really…Shien is still the same overbearing…" Ren sighed even though this girl is overbearing he can still admit that he is fond of her. "Seriously what are you doing here…" he said while massaging his aching forehead. "Don't you have a wedding to plan…?" He said but then when he turn towards Shien again she wasn't listening and just scanning through the scripts piled up over the coffee table.

"Oi Are you listening!" Ren asked once again (An angry vein popping out of his head animatedly), though he already know the answer to his question.

"What's with this script? It sucks…" Shien scoffed sardonically as she carelessly threw the script onto the floor.

"Hey! Don't make a mess here…"

"Oh shut up you're like Michael telling me this and that…"

"If I were Michael I won't blame him for lecturing you about things…"

"Yeah yeah…" she said uncaringly she then stood up and started to undress. Making Ren (jaw drop inside his head).

"W-Wait a minute! Don't just strip here!"

"What?" Shien let out a whining sound, "Why not? I'm hot…"

"If you want to strip do it inside the room where you could be alone!" Ren said (like reprimanding a four year old kid) while pushing Shien inside his room.

"Wha- don't push!"

"Just go…"

"F-Fine I get it I don't know you're such a prude Ren…"

"I'm not I'm just being a gentleman."

"Oh I like a man who could treat me roughly as well…" she said flirtatiously.

"Then go home and see Michael…"

"Na ah Ren…you can't get rid of me that easily…"

"Damn it…you're such a headache…"

"I heard that!" Shien said from inside his room.

The next day When Kyoko arrive at the set of their movie she immediately noticed that they're a lot of fans waiting from the back sure that they have lots of onlookers and fans camping out of their set but this time it looks like it tripled. Not only the fans though the crew was running like they are being chased by a mountain lion they we're frantic and busier than usual.

"What the heck is happening…" she thought to herself.

"Oh hi good moning…It's nice to finally meet you in the flesh Kyoko…" To say at least Kyoko was perplexed suddenly a tall beautiful woman just came up out of nowhere and greeted her (and she doesn't even know her), "Uh…hi…yes I am Kyoko but…how do you know that?" she asked wondering how the girl knows her name.

The girl smile gleefully, "Wow she's even more beautiful when she smile…" Kyoko thought to herself.

"Of course I know you I mean R- Hmmf…" Kyoko's eyes widen when she saw Ren pull the girl towards him and cover her mouth with his hand. The girl visually glared at Ren.

"W-What is going on?" she asked as she trying to understand what just happen (She knows it wasn't that hard to understand what Ren just did but for her somehow for some unknown reason her mind.

"None of your business..." Ren coldly dismiss Kyoko's question as he pull the beautiful blonde hair with him.

"She's beautiful isn't she?" One of the crew said to Kyoko.

"Huh?" Kyoko turned to the crew.

"That blonde with Tsuruga-san…"

"Uh…yeah…" Kyoko couldn't help but to agree even if she doesn't want to. It's true the girl with Ren is really beautiful but somehow seeing them together just making her blood boil.

"She's Shien Knowles an A lister actress rumor has it that Tsuruga-san and her dated once…"

"Huh?!" hearing that 'rumor' shock her, "They dated?! What?"

"Uh yeah…I heard it from one of the reporters two years ago…but don't worry Tsuruga-san is available and Miss Shien is engaged to a hotel (business) tycoon in America."

"Uh…I see…" Somehow hearing that information from the crew sadden her.

"They look good together though…" Kyoko watch Ren and the girl 'Shien' interact and…she hate to admit it but…it hurts…

After the filming Kyoko decided that she'll talk things out with Ren this time she won't hide and cower like the last time. "I don't mind that he'll be probably with her there won't be a chance that they're together since she's going to marry someone and Tsuruga-san is…" she sighed she is now standing outside Ren's make shift dressing room.

"This is it Kyoko…" once again taking a deep breath before entering the dressing room. "I'm coming in Tsuruga-san…I'm…eh…" Kyoko froze she couldn't believe what she was seeing. In front of her was Ren half naked his hand on the strap of 'Shien's' bra the sling of her skin bearing dress half way her arm and the slit of her dress halfway up both of them has dishevel hair.

"W-What are you two…doing?" she asked shocked of the suggestive display before her.

Ren knotted his brows in anger while trying to block Shien from Kyoko's sight, "What are you doing here?! Who told you to go in here without permission." He demanded in anger.

Kyoko is stoked this was her first time being yelled at by Ren but still, "I-I'm sorry I was just…but…you and her…"

"I told you none of your business, get out!"

"Ren it's enough…It's all right…" Shien said while reaching for the strap of her bra. "Ren is just helping me dress up…" she explained to still shock Kyoko.

"D-Dress up?" Kyoko said sounding unconvinced of her explanation.

"Shien enough we don't owe her any explanation…"

"Oh, I thought you like her?" Kyoko heard Shien said, what? Was that true? Ren likes her?

"He still like me?"

Ren scoffed, "Never…and I will never like her…" hearing Ren's words breaks her heart.

If he never really like her then why would he kiss her? "I can't understand…I thought you…you kissed me and yet…why would you do something like that to me?!" she demanded enraged by Ren's words and actions, "I was racking my brain thinking about what you did and yet…I was so dumb to even think about you!" she said her tears falling down her cheek.

"It's your fault for getting carried away…it was nice playing with you while it lasted." After he said that Ren bit his tongue for lying. "Shit…" he said it now he couldn't take it back, he was just too angry because she turn him away and then she's here wanting to talk things to him. Like she only turn to him when she's uncertain and after that he was nothing.

"Ren…"

"I was wrong about you…"

"Yeah you're right…" he said his bangs covering his eyes.

"I-I'm sorry to disturb…" Kyoko said as she left the room with a heavy heart.

After packing things up Kyoko was about to leave the set when she saw Shien waving to her Japanese fans (yelling her name) with Ren accompanying her. She decided to leave so that she wouldn't have to face them but before she could make a silent exit. She heard Shien call her name.

"Kyoko-chan…" Shien said playfully once she caught up with her.

"Ah~ Knowles-san…" Kyoko said uncertainly how can she even face her after she witness her saying weird things to Ren.

"Just call me Shien…calling me Knowles-san making me feel sad…"

"Uh…yeah…S-Shien-san…"

"Geez, Kyoko-chan I'm only the same age as you so don't add –san to my name I feel so old when you do…"

"Uh I'm sorry but in Japan it's-…" Shien is acting to familiar and it was making her uncomfortable (not just that though this girl is secretly together with Ren and that's making her not wanting to get to know her.)

"Shien come on the car is waiting." Ren called Shien out.

"Aww Ren-dear I'm-…"

"Come on I'm tired let's go…" Ren said impatiently. "I'm leaving you if you don't hurry…"

"You sure impatient to have some alone time with me huh~…"

"I'm tired I'm leaving first…" Ren said turning his back from the two.

"Hey that's rude!" Shien pouted, "He couldn't take a joke when hear one!" she thought to herself.

"Ah…S-Shien-san?"

"Yeah?"

"W-What is your relationship with Tsuruga-san…if you don't mind me asking that is…" Kyoko said looking away.

Shien simply smile while gently fixing the hair that sticks out of Kyoko's face to the back of her ear.

"Shien-san?" Kyoko asked a bit taken a back of the other girl's gesture.

"Why jealous~?" Shien asked playfully (once again)

"W-Why should I? I'm not jealous!" Crap! She said it so forcefully there's no way she's going to believe her.

"All I can say is that…Ren is a great lover…"

"S-So you two are…"

"My dear…it's for me to know and for you to find out…"
