Chapter Twenty Six :: Shopping For Him

Kanae looked at Kyoko as they walked down the street together, Kyoko seemed happy at last which was good, for the past two weeks she had had a slightly troubled expression about her and a week ago it was just depressed. "So you've gotten over your fear right?" Kanae asked as Kyoko blinked at her.

"My fear?" she repeated, "Moko-san what do you..."

"It's no use talking to you if you're going to deny it so confess there's something still bothering you," she said, "And I'm really hoping it isn't the fear you've had."

"I'm sorry Moko-san!" Kyoko cried, "The fear? I don't really know but if it's fear of Kuon it's all gone now."

Kanae crossed her arms as she looked at her friend, "Right..and the mysterious way you're acting. I'm going to ditch you here if you don't tell me."

Kyoko looked down repeating the words, "Mysterious way...I'm acting?" she looked away. I've been thinking about all those things that Kuon has told me but I'm sorry, I can't tell you Moko-san! I really am sorry but these are Kuon's secrets that I had to get out of him myself, I can't betray his trust!

"Yes," Kanae nodded, "Mo! It's bad enough to have you acting mysterious but to look upset."

"Ah! Ah!" Kyoko said before reaching for Kanae's sleeve but held back, "It's not because of you Moko-san..."

"I didn't think it was because of me, did that guy hurt you?" she asked showing her frustration.

"Kuon?" Kyoko asked as Kanae nodded, "No, Kuon would never physically hurt me."

"Then did he emotionally or psychologically hurt you?" Kanae asked next, her concern for her friend showing, "I'm going to kill him."

"No!" the chestnut haired girl spoke up, "No! Moko-san, he didn't hurt me on any level. I'm just worried for him."

"Is it something you can tell me?" Kanae asked as Kyoko looked away.

"I'm really sorry Moko-san, I can't tell you this secret of his, it's perhaps his most intimate, private one and you and Kuon don't know each other well enough."

"No you're right," Kanae nodded, "But you and I know each other so I wouldn't want to hurt you."

"But if I break up with Kuon again," she shivered, "And got angry with him again then..." she looked down devastated.

"Okay so I won't tell, you don't have to tell me," Kanae said, "Although part of me wishes that we could trust one another a little more, it's like you don't know what a friend is Mo."

"He has flashbacks," Kyoko replied, "Ones that he can't remember doing." She put a hand to her mouth and then quickly looked at Kanae, "Moko-san please forget that I told you that!"

Kanae looked at her before frowning, "Are you trying to tell me that your boyfriend isn't mentally there?" she asked as Kyoko looked down depressed which she knew was a yes.

"He's trying really hard!" Kyoko panicked again

"I'm not saying he's not trying," Kanae sighed, "I wish you hadn't settled for him is all," she saw Kyoko deliver her a friendly glare that she didn't think she'd see.

"I didn't settle for him, I love him despite his past...please understand that he's the man who made me feel love again," she quickly said as Kanae looked at her.

"I-" she struggled, "I-I'm sorry..." she managed to get out through gritted teeth, she turned annoyed, "Can we just go shopping, you said you wanted to get him a present right?"

"Yes," Kyoko nodded sadly before perking up, "I'd really like to get him a watch" she said her smile returning, "He's stopped wearing his other one and I think he's been used to something being on his wrist."

"That's an odd way of putting it," Kanae said looking at her, "But we can still look,"

"And..." Kyoko looked down, "Something else," she blushed deeply as Kanae stared at her and Kyoko whispered something in her ear.

Kanae's eyebrows shot up and she stared at her, "Let's get the watch first," she told her friend as Kyoko quickly nodded.

Nine Hours Later

Kyoko was sitting down in the living room of the house waiting for Kuon to come back, she had cooked a light meal of steak and small potatoes with vegetables, she waited for Kuon to come back as she sat behind a vase of roses and one glass of water, one of Kuon's favorite wine that she had found in the cupboard.

She waited for him before hearing the keys in the lock and looked down at the nightdress she was wearing, it was a black nightgown with lace that revealed her breasts, something that Kuon would not expect her in. "Kuon..." she said as he called out that he was back, she rose feeling a little cold in the outfit but it was better for Kuon to see her like this, after all he probably had such a hard day after this morning.

"Sorry I'm a little late," he apologized walking towards the room before looking at Kyoko and he raised an eyebrow, a laugh nearly slipping through although in his eyes all he showed was desire, "Kyoko, what are you wearing?" he asked calmly though why he stayed so calm seeing her like this he couldn't understand.

"I got you a gift today," she told him before turning deep red as she saw his true smile.

"Really?" he asked, "You didn't have to do that," he told her kissing her on the top of the head before seeing two boxes, one was a large rectangle and the other a square, "You don't need to spend your money on me, you should spend it on things you like."

"But you spend your money on me," Kyoko grinned as she saw Kuon's mouth open as he was about to argue back, "After this I'll save my money up for paying my acting class fees," she told him quickly. At this his mouth formed into a smile

"So dinner first and then open the gifts?" he asked before looking at her, "This isn't something that I have to open in my bedroom alone is it?"

Kyoko shook her head quickly although her cheeks were still scarlet, "No, and you can open the gifts first, dinner might take another five minutes or so to serve up."

Kuon looked at her before bowing his head, "I'm grateful to receive these gifts," he told her before picking up the bottom one before Kyoko squeaked.

"The top one first," she directed him as he nodded to find a rather nice watch, it was silver and seemed expensive, he looked at her.

"This seems too expensive Kyoko," he told her as she shook her head.

"Not as expensive as all the things that you've bought me," she argued back, "I want to see you put it on."

Kuon nodded before slipping it onto his wrist, he grinned before adjusting the time properly and then nodded, "Analogue, you know me well."

"I didn't think you'd want a digital watch because you seemed so traditional and followed routine," she told him as he blinked, was she thinking of Tsuruga Ren again?

"Can I open the bottom one now?" he asked as she shook her head.

"After dinner," she told him quickly before serving up. Once they had eaten dinner and had a conversation about each others' days, Kuon's eyes returned to the large rectangular box.

"Is it alright to open it now?" he asked her as she nodded slowly. Taking off the paper Kuon readied himself to open the box and then did so, inside he found two pieces. A bra and what looked like a thong both made out of candy. He blinked at it wide eyed, "I can't wear these you know," he told her not knowing why such a seductive thing was in a box for him from Kyoko.

"It's not for you to wear," Kyoko replied as he picked up the bra and she turned an even deeper shade of red, "It's for you to take off of me. I know you don't like sweet things though so I apologize, I did ask if they had one made out of crackers or tempura..."

Kuon laughed, "Are you asking me to take them off of you tonight?" he asked finishing his glass of wine, the shock still in his eyes.

Kyoko nodded before remembering the words that Beagle said to her the night he raped her. Now you'll never be able to get me out of your head until you have sex with someone else, you'll grow angrier and angrier since no one will have sex with damaged goods and you'll return back to me. "YES!" she replied loudly as he chuckled

"Alright," he nodded allowing the emperor of the night to enter him, "So whose bedroom?" he asked her as he kept thinking that Kyoko Mogami was the last person he would believe to wear edible underwear.

"Your room...can that be our room?" she asked him as he nodded

"Of course," he told her as she grew more nervous.

MATURE action starts here

Ten Minutes Later

Kyoko looked up at the naked man who was above her as he bit down hard on the candy covering her nipple. She blushed again and giggled as he fought the urge to stop, he wanted to conquer Kyoko and make her his, if doing this was what she wanted well of course he would agree to it, she made a squeak as he looked at her.

"Did I catch you with my teeth?" he asked her as Kyoko shook her head quickly, "You know you really make me feel like a virgin," he admitted not even shy about saying that, "Thank you..."

"We haven't even done anything yet," she said before he nodded, she watched as he licked her breast trying to get all the candy crumbs off before he started to pick at the thong. All of a sudden she got an image of Reino in her head and tears started going down her face, "STOP IT YOU MONSTER!" she yelled before sitting up as Kuon got up.

"I'm sorry," he whispered, "I took it too far, I stepped over the line," he apologized

Kyoko shook her head, "I really wanted to replace those memories," she said looking at him as he left the room saying on his way out.

"Get changed, we can still sleep beside each other if you want." With that tears poured down Kyoko's face, why did she have such a hard time with this? She loved him, she knew that she did and yet with him in that position all she could think about was Beagle, that made her cry even more as Kuon stood outside of the room heartbroken.
