Hey everyone! I know it's been months since i've last updated and i'm sorry,i was really busy with school plus i started a new fanfiction, but in about two weeks the summer vacation will begin so i will be having a whole lot more time to write. Anyway i hope that you'll enjoy this chapter!
When i opened the door to the house i saw something i was definitely not expecting to see...
Letters. My heart stuttered when i saw that the one that sent them was Kyouko, after i got all off of the letters off the floor i sat down on my couch holding them. I knew that i should have let go of these feelings a long time ago but i just could never do that because no matter how much time passed or how far i would go i never forgot about Kyouko. I noticed that one of the letters contained something so i opened it and saw that it was a shell.
flashback
I was at home in my study sitting at my desk observing my sea shell collection but even if i was trying with all my might i just couldn't concentrate, i slammed my fist on the table in frustration, after i took a deep breath i got up and walked around my table to the window in front of it, the window was in front of our garden so in that moment i caught a glance of Mariko practising the violin and Makoto sat under a tree reading a manga. If in that moment someone had asked me how i was i would have been lying if i said i was alright, it had been a week since i found out Saena was cheating on me and i had to meet her with the lawyers in an hour and as much as i always wanted to cut my ties with her i knew that she would definitely find a way to hurt me with this, but still i couldn't let the kids see me like this. Suddenly a knock on the door brought me back to reality so i sat down in my desk.
''Who is it?''
''It's me Kyouko, can i come in?'' I was really reassured that it was Kyouko, for a moment i thought i was Saena coming to remind me again.
''Of course.'' She came in dressed in a flower print dress that looked adorable, i noticed that she started looking at my collection of seashells so i smiled in amusement.
''I see you're interested in my sea shell collection, would you like to get a closer look?'' She nodded, so i got up and walked to the shelf and picked up the shells and placed them on the table, she came closer and started examining them until i saw that her eyes grew wider so i looked at what she was staring at and it was a starfish.
''Do you like this starfish, Kyouko? Here you can hold it if you want.'' I took the starfish and handed it to Kyouko, whilst holding it she smiled.
''Wow, it's beautiful..''
''Do you want it?'' Her eyes were beeming but then a concerned look went over her face.
''But isn't that the only starfish you have?''
''That's true...''
''And wouldn't it be better if you gave something like this to Mariko nee chan or Makoto nii chan?'' I then laughed.
''I doubt it, last time i showed my collection of seashells they told me it was a waste of space, anyway i don't mind you keeping this.''
''Really? Then i'll take good care of it.''
''Anyway did you need something sweetie?''
''Actually i wanted to know if you wanted to eat lunch with us.''
''I need to go out in an hour so i'll get a snack outside.''
''But dad, aren't you always telling me how we shouldn't miss our meals?''
''Fine then, i'll start cooking.''
''Can you teach me how?''
''Sure.''
Back to reality
I couldn't believe that even after everything she still remembered, he then started reading the letter.
Dear father,
i don't know if you ever read any of the letters
i sent you but i just wanted to say that today was
a great day, an old couple at the ryokan gave me
these as a thank you gift, if i'm right you didn't have
these ones in your collection last time i checked so i
thought they might be useful. I hope that one day we
can go look for shells together.
Mogami Kyouko.
He felt sorry for her because she never knew that she was sending them at the wrong address but also was very angry at Saena, he knew she was evil but he never believed that she could do something like this, so he decided to read the rest of the letters.
Kyouko walked until she found an empty room, when they got in she closed the door carefully.
''I know you are Corn.'' after she said that there was an akward silence.
''I'm sorry i didn't tell you before.''
''I understand, i am just your kohai after all, even if we did know each other before it probably doesn't mean anything to you now.'' She was about to open the door but Ren closed it.
''Wait, that's not true...'' Kyouko interrupted him.
''I bet you were laughing this whole time behind my back, i'm so stupid i can't believe i let myself fall in love with you.'' Kyouko was crying, but Ren embraced her.
''You are anything but stupid, the reason why i never told you was because i saw how happy you were thinking that i was a fairy prince so i couldn't bring myself to tell you the truth, and i'm glad that you love me because...''
Ren lifted Kyouko's chin.
''I love you too.'' Ren kissed her softly when they separated to breathe, he saw that she was blushing so he smiled and kissed again this time he deepened the kiss and she wrapped her arms arouns his neck. They were interrupted by someone knocking on the door.
''Ren, Kyouko chan are you two in here?'' Ren cursed under his breath, because he forgot about his manager so he looked at Kyouko who sighed.
''Yes Yashiro san we're in here, we'll be out in a minute.''Kyouko didn't want stop what they were doing but when she looked at the watch she realised what time it was so they took a deep breath and opened the doorand started walking to the entrance, when they got there thay found Yashiro waiting for them.
''I hope i didn't interrupt anything.''
''Oh don't worry Yashiro san we were done talking, anyway i'll see you both tomorrow.'' Ren knew he couldn't just let her go without saying anything.
''Mogami san how about i drive you home?''
''I don't want to be a bother.''
''Don't worry i can drive you there after i drop off Yashiro, i wouldn't feel comfortable letting you go out on your own when it's getting dark.''
''Ok then.'' The car ride was silent until they dropped off Yashiro.
''I meant what i said back there, when i said i love you.'' Kyouko blushed hearing those words but she was confused because she thought he was in love with that high school girl.
''But didn't you say that you were in love with that school girl?''
''When did i say that?'' Kyouko mentally punched herself for letting that slip, in that moment Ren remembered Bo and everything made sense.
''You're Bo?''
''Yes it was my first job, i'm sorry i didn't tell you before.'' Ren sighed.
''It's okay.''
''Still when i was Bo you said you were in love with a school girl.''
''I was talking about you Kyouko.''Kyouko was so shocked that she couldn't say anything
''Are you still mad at me?'' Kyouko looked puzzled. ''About me being Corn and not telling you this whole time.''
''I guess not, i understand why you didn't want to tell me besides i didn't tell you i was Bo either.'' Ren stopped when they arrived at the Daruyama.
''Are you free tomorrow?'' Kyouko nodded
''Can you come over? I'm happy that you love me but before i do anything i need you to know the whole truth about me.''
''Ok, but does that mean we can't kiss anymore?''Ren smirked.
''Well i guess we can make an exception.'' Kyouko then wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed him, Ren then put his hand on her waist and deepened the kiss. They separated when the need for air was too strong, so Kyouko decided to go.
''I'll see you tomorrow Tsuruga san'' He then got closer and kissed her softly.
''Call me Ren.'' A blush crept on Kyouko's face.
''Good night Ren.'' He smiled.
''Good night Kyouko.'' While he drove home he started feeling nervous about tomorrow, how would she react? Will she start to hate him? Will she brake his heart? These questions were haunting Ren but still he smiled remembering how she blushed when she called him 'Ren'.
