Author's Note: So all mistakes are mine as always. I don't own anything. The song the Sho sings is Leave Out All The Rest by Linkin Park.
Fate
Chapter 9
Kyoko and Ren left for the studio after breakfast ready to face the day. Kyoko had her engagement ring on for the whole world to see, which they did. It didn't help that they were could not stop smiling each other. Kyoko wanted to see if Kanae was in yet because she was support to be working in the 'Love Me section' that morning. She really wanted to tell the full story of how Ren proposed before anyone else found out. So she left Ren with Yashiro while she when to find her friend.
When Kyoko got to the locker room for the 'Love Me section' it was empty but not for long as Kanae walked in the room moments later.
"Kanae guess what happened to me last night!!" Kyoko was so excited she was pretty much jumping up and down.
"Kyoko if you don't calm down you will not be able to tell what happened and why you have that big flashy ring on your left hand." Kanae could not help messing with her friend. She knew that Ren had been planning last night for awhile.
"Well that is what I was going to tell you, Ren and I are engaged." Kyoko said with a big smile. "Do you want to know how it happened?"
"Of course I do. Wait aren't you filming for Dark Moon this morning."
"Yes I don't have a lot of time but I had to stop and tell you what happened, because I won't see you for like a week with everything going on." Kyoko went on to tell the whole story about last night. When she finish Kanae was in awe of everything that Ren did to make it the perfect night from Kyoko.
The two friends talked for a little while longer until they hear a knock on the door. Kyoko jumped up, only to find Ren standing there with a big smile on his face.
"Hey sweetheart, we need to get to set so that we are not late."
"Okay, we just finished talking about what a wonderful man that you are."
Kyoko hugged Kanae goodbye and walked over and kissed Ren. "I hope you have a great day Kanae. I will talk to you again soon."
ooOoo
After filming was done on Dark Moon Ren and Kyoko had lunch with Yashiro. They had a quiet relaxing lunch at the studio so that the reporters that always seem to be around would leave them alone. The studio was a press free environment so that those working there could relax. It was not that Ren and Kyoko were hiding their relationships from the public but they were trying to keep it on the down low for now.
After lunch Ren and Yashiro took Kyoko to the set of the variety show she working at as a big chicken. Ren knew the Sho was going to be on the show today so he decided to hide in the audition just in case anything happened. He wanted to be there for her always.
As the show started Kyoko was nervous that Sho was going to pull something so she made it a point to stay away from him backstage. The show was going pretty well until it was time for Sho and his band were to play. As the song started Kyoko was so glad that no one could see her face. As her face drop completely. She could not believe what she was hearing. The main question that keep running through her head was, is he singing about me?
ooOoo
Sho was so excite that he was going to be able to play his song that would win back Kyoko. He knew that if she really was the chicken on this show it would explain why the chicken was staying away from him before the show. This was going to be good.
Sho and his band took the stage finally. As the song start Sho his eyes found the chicken and didn't leave for most of the song.
I dreamed I was missing
You were so scared.
But no one would listen
'Cause no one else cared.
After my dreaming
I woke with this fear.
What am I leaving
When I'm done here?
So if you're asking me.
I want you to know.
When my time comes
Forget the wrong that I've done
Help me leave behind some
Reasons to be missed
And don't resent me
And when you're feeling empty
Keep me in your memory
Leave out all the rest, leave out all the rest.
Don't be afraid
I've taken my beating
I've shed but I'm me
I'm strong on the surface
Not all the way through
I've never been perfect
But neither have you
So if you're asking me
I want you to know
When my time comes
Forget the wrong that I've done
Help me leave behind some
Reasons to be missed
Don't resent me
And when you're feeling empty
Keep me in your memory
Leave out all the rest, leave out all the rest.
Forgetting all the hurt inside
You've learned to hide so well
Pretending someone else can come
And same me from myself
I can't be who you are
When my time comes
Forget the wrong that I've done
Help me leave behind some
Reasons to be missed
Don't resent me
And when you're feeling empty
Keep me in your memory
Leave out all the rest, leave out all the rest.
Forgetting all the hurt inside
You've learned to hide so well
Pretending someone else can come
And save me from myself
I can't be who you are I can't be who you are.
As the song ended Sho walked over to the chicken and pulled the head off. Sure enough under the chicken head was a very shocked Kyoko.
"Kyoko I know that I hurt you in the past but I now know that it was the biggest mistake that I could have made. I need you in my life. I love you."
Kyoko was so shocked she could not say anything. She was just standing there with her mouth hanging open. She didn't know what she should say, all she could think was why did Ren have to leave. He would know what to do and say right now.
ooOoo
Ren had been enjoying the show until Sho took the stage. He just had a very bad feeling that Sho was going to pull something but he didn't know what. As Sho started to sing Ren could not stay in his seat, he jumped up and ran back stage. He was going to kill Sho as soon as he got his hand on him.
Ren got backstage just as the music was ending, he could hear Sho telling Kyoko that he loved her, but didn't hear Kyoko says anything back. He knew her well enough to know that she was shocked speechless. He walked out on the stage and wrapped his arms around her. She looked ready to faint.
"Kyoko are you okay?" Ren whispered in Kyoko's ear. When she didn't say anything he was worried but then she turned in his arms so that he could hold her tight he knew she was just shocked. "I will take care of everything."
Seeing Ren holding Kyoko like that pushed Sho over the edge. He was so mad that after everything that he just said and did just to have Ren be the one to hold and comfort her.
"Get away from her Ren she is mine and always will be." Sho try to grab Kyoko out of Ren arms only to be met by a very protective Ren.
"Don't you dare touch Kyoko. After all that you have done to her, why would you ever think that she would want you. You were always the one that used her and you leaving her and it the best thing that you could have done because she finally wake up to see who you really are." Ren was glad that he was holding Kyoko right now because if he wasn't he may have killed Sho on live TV.
"What would you know about it? You have known her for what a year? You will never know her as well as I do."
Kyoko finally got over her shock and was able to pull herself together enough to know what she wanted to say to Sho. With Ren by her side she knew that she could do anything.
"Sho Ren is right, all you did was use me and hurt me. Ren has always been here for me. He was the one that helped me when my mom wasn't nice to me. He was there when you hurt me. He has always been there; even when I didn't know it was him. That is why when he asked me to marry him I said yes." Kyoko put her hands over her mouth. She didn't mean to say that on National TV.
Ren pulled her hand from her mouth. "It is okay honey; it was going to come out soon enough. It was not like it was a secret anyways." Turning back to Sho, "See Sho you had your chance and you lost it. Move on, find someone else to torture." With that said he turned away from Sho with Kyoko by his side and walked off the stage.
Kyoko looked over her shoulder as she left with Ren and was happy to see that now it was Sho that was completely shocked. He looked like he was about the faint at any time. All she could think was serves him right for messing with Ren and I.
PS- Sorry that it took me so long to update, I have had most of this chapter written for a long time. The one thing that keep holding me back was the song. The weird thing is that this whole story came to me when I hear Leave Out All The Rest by Linkin Park but when I went to write this chapter I was not sure if it still fit. I finally decided that I should just go with my first idea. I hope you enjoy. Let me know what you think.
