Okay, so here's the next chapter. It's really short, so sorry about that. Sorry it's taking me so freaking long!! Gosh, I can't believe it's chapter 20 already... I need to wrap it up... haha. Anyways, enjoy!
Kyo's eyes traveled the down the length of her body and back up. She looked so beautiful. She truly blossomed in such a short time. He felt a twinge in his chest as he saw her face lit up, smiling into the face of his enemy. That could've been him if he hadn't been so stupid.
"So? What are you waiting for?" He heard Meg say from behind.
What was he waiting for? Kyo shook his head, as if he was trying to clear it. It didn't hit him until he saw Shin pull Reina towards him for a kiss. His body cried out in protest as it filled with rage. His legs propelled him down the stairs and towards their booth, eating the distance in a fast pace. His fists clenched tightly as his blood pumped furiously in his veins. He was going to rip Shin's face off.
Reina laughed as Shin spun her. She was having a good time, despite what she thought earlier. She had to admit, Shin was a great guy. Sure he had wealth, good looks, and power, but under all that, he had what most guys at Eitoku didn't have. A good heart. Reina smiled up at Shin, her heart a little sad. She wished she could fall in love with him. He was such a great guy, but he wasn't Kyo.
Reina spun around once more before she was pulled in for a kiss. Reina's eyes widened with shock as she pulled away.
"Shin…"
"Sorry, couldn't help myself."
Reina looked up at him, noticing that his smile didn't quite reach his eyes. "Shin? What's wrong?"
"Thanks for tonight, Rain. I enjoyed myself."
"What?" Reina asked in confusion.
"Get the hell away from her."
Reina gasped as she turned around. Her heart did a somersault as she saw Kyo standing a couple feet away.
"And what are you going to do about it, Domyouji?" Shin taunted.
Kyo stepped forward. "I'm taking what's mine, you can either step aside or I'll make you. I don't care."
Shin stepped forward. "Now what kind of man would I be if I just let you take her? Come on then."
"No!" Reina stepped in Shin's path. "No, don't, Shin. Please."
"Stay out of this Reina. When I'm done with him, you're coming with me."
Reina could only stand there and gape at Kyo's words.
Shin's first punch connected with Kyo's jaw. Kyo swung back, landing a hit. They continued on, missing and landing blows on each other as Reina helplessly watched. Seijun, Akito and Meg ran up the stairs to see the two duke it out.
"Stop them!" Reina cried as she saw them.
"Argh! Kyo you idiot! I said to get her, not waste time fighting!" Meg yelled as Shin went crashing into the coffee table, shattering it.
"Shin!" Reina cried as she ran to his side. "Are you alright?"
"Get up!" Kyo said furiously, waiting for Shin to recover.
Meg slapped Seijun in the arm to stop the fight. Seijun sighed, rubbing his arm as he walked towards Kyo.
"Alright man, that's enough." He grabbed Kyo and tried to drag him away.
"Let go! I'm not done yet." Kyo shook Seijun's hand off his arm.
"Stop it! Stop it! Enough!" Reina cried. "Leave him alone!"
Kyo stopped in mid stride as her words pierced through him. His gaze narrowed in on the picture before him. Reina was kneeling next to Shin with a tear stained face, glaring at him. That fueled his anger. She was supposed to be beside him, not Shin. He strode towards them and grabbed her wrist, forcing her up.
"Guess I'm not the nice guy you thought I was." Kyo said dragging her behind him as he walked towards the exit.
"Let go! Let me go!" Reina struggled furiously as she was lead out of the club. She pounded on his arm to no avail, he just pulled her along as if nothing happened.
Kyo let out a harsh laugh as he felt her hit him. "Stop before you hurt yourself."
Reina pulled harder. Kyo pulled her towards him, wrapping his arm around her in a tight band in attempt to cease her struggles. With his free arm he pulled out his cell to call for the waiting limo.
Reina tried everything she could to break free from his hold, but with one hand still trapped and twisted in front of her and the other caught between them, there wasn't much she could do. Not to mention the scorching heat of his body pressed along hers.
"Stop. You'll hurt yourself," he said harshly.
"Let me go!" Reina struggled hard, but he just held on tighter.
The long black limo pulled up to the curb, barely stopping before she was forced in. Kyo climbed in after her and slammed the door shut behind him before he motioned the driver to go.
Shin sat in the back of the limo, clutching an ice pack over his eye. His back was searing with pain. He could feel the small shards of glass as he moved. He hissed and bit his lip as the limo hit a pothole. He swallowed hard as he tried to lean back. He let out a ragged breath when he managed to sit as comfortably as he could get. He closed his eyes as he thought back to the scene at the club.
He smiled as he remembered the smile on Reina's face. He noticed her smiles nowadays never quite reached her eyes, but tonight it did. Tonight, she smiled for him. And tonight was the night he let her go. He saw Kyo across from them the minute they walked in and he knew the moment Kyo saw them.
Shin knew what he had to do. He knew she would never be as happy with him as she was with Kyo. Shin absently rubbed his chest as he thought of the kiss. His mouth twisted with amusement. He knew Domyouji wouldn't be able to resist pounding his face in for that.
Shin laughed out loud into the limo despite his aching ribs. His laughter subsided as he felt his eyes burn.
'Who would've thought, Takeda. You actually got your heart broken.' Shin swallowed the lump in his throat as a sad little smile played at his lips. 'Goodbye Rain.'
Reina sat on her side of the limo with her head bent down, absently rubbing her wrist. It didn't hurt, but she was sure it was bruised. She sneaked a glance at Kyo, thankful for the veil her hair made and the darkness of the limo. She was surprised to find him with his eyes closed and head resting against the cushion.
She lifted her head to look at him. What exactly was he up to? Reina took this chance to study his profile, briefly catching glimpses of his face as they drove under street lamps. She held back a gasp as she saw the cut on the corner of his lip. She caught herself from reaching out to touch is face. She dropped her gaze back to her hands as her eyes met his.
"Comparing me to your pretty boy?" Kyo mocked.
Reina remained quiet, not wanting to provoke him any further. Her eyes widened as the limo came to a stop. Before she could do or say anything, Kyo grabbed her wrist, pulling her out of the car. She swallowed hard as she looked up to see the familiar building before her. Kyo's place.
Okay, so how was it? I know, it was short! The next chapter will contain some M rated materials, so yeah... anyways, please leave a review! Thanks!
