A/N: Is truly blessed for having reviewers and true readers. Thank you.

Review and I'll update! Thanks!

"Only in Movies? Fake Love?"

Len's POV:

We glanced at each other again and became anxious.

Kira-kun was in-charge and frowning he said, "I think this is—" he took a deep breath and, "unacceptable."

There was long silence.

"But why?" Kaho cried.

I held her backward and made a step forward. "We are responsible enough t—"

"I do not care, Tsukimori Len. Maybe you are the son of a professional actor but, that doesn't mean that you are as good enough as him. He knows what he is doing and you are so indecisive. This story is soon to be finished and you are not ruining all of these hard works." Kira-kun snapped at us with flaring eyes.

"I get it now." I retorted. "If you want me to be as much as my father who is ruined and miserable now—I'll do it. Anyway, no one ever appreciated the work I have done." I added.

Kaho tugged my shirt.

Kanazawa held Kira-kun away for awhile, "Tsukimori, Hino, talk about this for awhile. This may affect your performance and we need the best you can do." He suggested with sober tone.

I lowered my gaze and walked downstairs of the building to the bench located before the forest. I don't know for sure, but I think Kahoko followed behind me with worried expression.

I sat in the bench and placed stared at the gray sky. It will rain and I know it for sure. I began to read weather because I am always outside the house when I am alone or when I know father is going home from work. Sometimes, being a loner can be an advantage.

"Len,"

I looked down at her. "I'm sorry but I think—"

Kahoko shook her head to cut me off. "No!"

I sighed and tried to reason out. "It's for your own sake, Kahoko. I don't want to waste your reputation because of this kind of issue. I don't want you to be involved of my problem with my own family."

She started to sob. "Will you let them affect your own opinion in life?" she growled.

I hid my eyes and looked away. "I will sacrifice my own need and emotions just to satisfy and protect others who shouldn't be drawn in my situation." I retorted.

"You don't mean that…" she trailed off with tone filled with shock and dismay.

"I will do it for you. You shouldn't love me Kahoko, I am broken." I suggested with saddened implication in my voice.

"But—"

"No buts, you can find someone else and…I am not worthy to be loved by you, you are too good for a guy like me. If we need to be apart, we will be." I replied.

She was about to protest again when I stood up and walked away.

"Len!"

I looked back through my shoulder. "Goodbye, Hino."

She gasped and glared at me with teary eyes as she ran back at the others.

I think this is a sweet goodbye for being hers and return at being a cold-hearted lad with no one to be with. I thought and walked around the forest.

I still do love her and I know she still feels the same but, I know she will be able to see someone else soon. There are so many to choose.

I smirked to myself imagining my expression seeing it.

-o-O-o-O-o-O-o-

I don't know how many hours I've been walking around this whole forest yet, I don't care and I will never care for I don't want to go back.

Then, when I reached the end of the whole place I saw crimson. I stopped and glanced. It was Kahoko, waiting for somebody but, I'm quite positive it isn't me.

Then, from few paces afar came a violet head lad with sweet smile.

As I saw Yunoki approaching I stopped in my tracks and hid behind the tree. Kahoko looked up when he called her. He smiled princely and lifted her chin by his thumb and stared at her eyes. He said few sentences which I didn't hear but, made her blush and her eyes widen.

Yet the worst thing is that after those words, he wrapped her and kissed her fully in the lips as she closed her eyes.

I turned away and leaned on the tree as I slid down in the grass. I stared at the dark sky as it started to rain and my tears flowed out.

Why, Kahoko? Are you really… my thoughts trailed off and I closed my eyes and continued to cry after long years I didn't.

She's not mine anymore, anyway. And she'll never will.

-o-O-o-O-o-O-o-

Kahoko's POV:

"Can I talk to you?" Yunoki-kun asked after I went back few hours ago from being broken hearted by Len.

I looked up and saw him smiling at me. "Ok,"

"No, not here. In the forest. It's quite personal." He added.

I stood up and walked to the forest, out of my mind.

He followed and then disappeared for awhile. I stopped when I know this is far enough to hide at and waited for him to come.

Len, where are you?

Yunoki-kun came after me and smiled as he headed towards me. He just stopped one inch from me.

His smile disappeared and then he started to talk, "Hino-san,"

"Hai?"

"You look lost. Do you need someone?" he asked seriously.

I shook my head. "I'm fine. What do we need to talk about?"

He raised my chin with his thumb and stared at me. He took a deep breath and show me a frown with a smile. It's like an opposite side of him. "I find you kind of annoying but," he paused and smirked at me. "I like you."

I blushed and my eyes widened with his words. Like?

Then, in a split second after he leaned his lips to mine, I realized what he's going to do.

I just closed my eyes and don't want to see Yunoki-kun anymore. I just imagined Len is doing it so, I will be satisfied.

Then, it started to rain and he let me go. I just ran away from the rain's water and from the world with full of shame.

Where is Len?

-o-O-o-O-o-O-o-

It has been few hours and it is still raining and worse, Len is still not here.

Not like I care but, it-it may postpone our taping for today.

"Hino, where is Tsukimori?" Ousaki-kun asked

I shrugged. "We…weren't together earlier."

He acknowledged it and gave us umbrellas. "We should search for him. He can catch sickness quickly. Anyways, Kira declared this day dismissed for the news says that there's a storm coming."

I took an umbrella and headed towards the forest since this is where my instinct points at me.

I searched around and heard a cough.

I abruptly turned in that direction and found Len sitting under a tree. Wet and…pale.

"L-Tsukimori-kun?" I gasped.

He looked up and then looked away. "It's you…Hino."

"Yes, everyone is looking for you." I replied in casual way.

He stood up and sighed. Oblivious about the rain. "I will be heading home. Tell them to get back and don't worry anymore." He ordered and started to walk away.

"Don't you have a feve—"

"No."

"But—"

He looked back. "I said—No."

"I was only—"

"Kaho, you found him!" Kaji gasped.

I nodded and smiled. "Yes."

Ousaki approached him. "You know that your mother will be worried when you get sick."

"I won't be going home." Len retorted as the rain continued.

Ousaki-kun's eyes narrowed. "You're changing, Len."

"I know."

"You are like your father." Ousaki-kun muttered.

Len's eyes widened a fraction. "The guy who beat his son and let him sleep alone in the dark living room without any blanket? The man who will get what he wants and won't give away anything. He even took me my future and now even my mortality." He countered.

There were gasps behind me for they don't know the truth.

Then he lowered his gaze. "And the one I truly love left me." He murmured where I can only hear. He ignored being wet and headed to his place in the filming area and dried himself and changed his clothes. But, that won't be enough. He still ignored the whole idea as we watch him and let him be. Ousaki-kun can't argue with him especially on his condition. He walked passed us and headed to his car.

"Tsukimori," Kira called.

Len was hall-in in his car and turned to look at Kira-kun. Avoiding my gaze. "Yes?" he asked. He still can hold his stern voice and keep his politeness.

Kira-kun took a step forward but, not in the rain. "You are not going to back out in this project." It was a threat in my ears but I can hear the question mark after the sentence as well.

Len looked away and went inside as he started his car and drove away without answering.

"What if he'll back out?" Shimizu asked from the background.

We all faced Kira-kun, Kanazawa-kun and Ousaki-kun.

Kanazawa-kun was the one who answered, "He won't but, surely, this will affect his departure."

"What departure?" the others asked.

Ousaki-kun lowered his gaze. "His stupid father changed his plans and wants him to go back with them after this project end. And never come back here again." He answered.

Even I, his former…partner, didn't know that. So, that's why. He hid everything on me with his smile. There's always hidden behind his facade and I can't still read all of it.

"And there is a possibility that if he won't come back tomorrow, here….you know the reason already." Ousaki-kun added.

I felt my knees tremble and I can't picture not being the partner of Len in this movie anymore. Miyaji just hissed between clenched teeth and glared at the ground.

But, Len, no! No...please come back. Please DO come back...I still love you, how much painful your words were.

No, Len. Don't back out. Fine, I'll avoid you. I'll do it, just don't leave us especially, me. I need to see you again, if that's the lease I can do.

A/N: Will he "come back" or "back out"?

Will he love "again" or let his heart stay frozen forever?

Will he give another chance to be with Kahoko or ignore her for her sake?

And will love overtake duty?

I hope you liked this twelfth chapter of mine. I know it is full of sentimental but, soon, soon, I promise that sparks of love will flare again. They needed to be apart for awhile.

Thanks for all the reviews you gave me!

Sorry for typos.

PLEASE CONTINUE REVIEWING AND I'LL CONTINUE UPDATING!

P.S. They weren't able to film after those circumstances because Len went missing and the rain started.

love you ff: Oh, yes! Yes, I got the names in the wonderful novel. Haha, my mind yelled me to do it so, I did. Oh, I'm not being modest but, I'm not as good as you think I am. I still need a lot of improvement. But, thank you.

Sneak Peek:

I touched his lips and they are pale. Then his azure hair that is losing its color.

"Len," I called.

His father had done enough but, why won't Len tell him that it hurts him? Not only physically but, emotionally?

His breathing became shallow and it brought tears to my eyes as I watch him suffer.

"Len," I repeated with cracking voice.

There's still no response and I am losing hope.

No...please, why did I even come if I'll be too late?

I cried as I regret everything I shouted at him earlier...his may be stern but, it was because he is trying to shove me away from his father's bad mood and violence. He sacrificed himself.

What happened? You'll see in the next chapter!
