AN: Sorry that I haven't updated in such a long time, I was having writers block on this story but I'm ready to go now. Hope that this chapter makes up a little for the wait.
Chapter Thirty Four :: Visit to the Hosptial
Kuon looked down as he sat in his room, he had been told that they'd have to up the therapy once Cain had lost it in the garden the night before and set fire to the plants with a lighter that had been left on someone's desk which seemed a very odd thing to do. They were considering keeping him here longer in case he became a threat to either himself or to the other patients and even prescribing him some drugs or shock therapy.
Hearing a knock on the door he rose to answer it, he had already turned the picture of him and Kyoko over that he kept next to him and had Corn hidden away so he couldn't see it. He didn't understand why he was so angry with Kyoko when it was probably not her fault, but he just felt replaced. Coming to the door he looked at a doctor who smiled at him. "Hizuri-san good morning," they told him as he looked at the clock on the wall, it was ten in the morning nearly noon.
"Morning," he nodded before giving a gentleman's smile trying to regain a little Ren to himself, "Is it time for the session?" he asked confused.
"No," the doctor shook her head "It's...you have a visitor waiting for you."
Kuon blinked before looking down, "Who is it?" he asked hoping that it wasn't her, he wasn't in the right mind set to just put on a smiling face and think that her answering that question that way didn't happen. However, he also hoped it wasn't the president, he had been on the phone with the president telling him that he'd like to get out of the hospital so that he could take care of Kyoko, not mentioning that he really wanted her to separate her from the rapist. Lory had replied back that even if Kuon chose to leave LME to do that he wouldn't let him leave earlier than the doctors suggested making it so that Kuon had to choose acting over love.
The doctor looked at him, "Kyoko-san," she replied, "It's her first time visiting you isn't it?" she smiled as Kuon looked away uneasily. "You always talk about her in session I thought seeing her would be good for you."
"Yeah," Kuon said nervously, was she here to break up with him? He picked up Corn before looking down at the hospital clothes he was wearing and sighed, "I'll see her,"
"Good, then session is this afternoon," the doctor grinned at him, "It'll be good for you to talk to someone, you always seem so quiet, so introverted."
Kuon took a deep breath before closing his door and leaving for the room where the visitors would wait. Once he got there he looked at Kyoko who looked like she hadn't slept, seeing him she stood up immediately but he shook his head and sat down without hugging her like she wanted, he looked away showing a depressed manner.
"They told me about the plants," Kyoko replied, "I was expecting to see you in a straight jacket," she said gently as Kuon shook his head.
"Heightened security on me but no not a straight jacket," he said as he offered her a false smile.
Kyoko's eyes snapped open as she felt his anger, He's angry with me! Maybe I shouldn't have come...I don't know why he's angry unless...unless he knows about beagle.
"So," Kuon began, "The pregnancy, how's it going?"
"Oh," she looked down at her stomach, "It's going well, I can feel the baby getting bigger but Moko-san thinks that's just my imagination because I'm still gaining weight." After she had said that there was silence between the two of them, "Did Yashiro-san tell you?" she asked already having heard the questions about her and Beagle from her boyfriend's manager.
"No," he shook his head, "I wanted to watch Box R, they were showing you and him before the show came on."
"You've been watching Box R?" Kyoko said excitedly before catching Kuon's eyes narrow
"That's not the point Kyoko," he told her, "but yes you are excellent in it, I missed the last episode but I'll definitely either have someone buy the DVDs for me or get them myself. So..." he looked away, "Have you come here to break up with me?"
"No!" Kyoko panicked, "I don't want to break up with you," she said clutching to the table, "Do you want to break up with me?"
"I don't know," he told her honestly as tears sprang to her eyes, "I mean," he shook his head, "I always thought that a relationship with you would be exclusive without it having to be said."
"It's not what you think, I..." Kyoko began but trailed off into nothing not knowing what she could say.
"What?" Kuon asked reading her body language, he sighed before reaching out to hold her hand, "Did he threaten you or something?"
Kyoko bit her bottom lip, "He didn't threaten me in a way you might think," she told him honestly before looking him in the eyes feeling that something would go wrong from her telling him the truth but he had to know the truth, "He knows about you."
"That I'm your boyfriend," he chuckled weakly, "I think everyone knows that by now."
"No...about you being in here, about your personalities," she told him nervously, "He threatened to tell the media about it and ruin you."
Kuon stared down trying to think of what to do, what meant more Kyoko or his reputation? He shook his head not knowing whether or not he would regret his choice since often relationships didn't work out for the best and many women he had been with had dumped him, but he felt something different from Kyoko, "Let him."
Kyoko blinked, "Let him?" she repeated.
Kuon nodded as he looked at her, "I don't want him touching you, I don't want him around you," he growled as Kyoko felt his hold on her hand get tighter. "Let him tell Japan that I'm in here and why, I care more about you than myself."
Kyoko's eyes widened, "I can't let my sempai take a hit because of his kouhai's mistakes," she gasped before seeing his sad look before he smiled naturally.
"Stop thinking of me that way Kyoko, think of me as your boyfriend. Your future husband perhaps," he said as Kyoko's eyes widened.
"What?" she asked as he gave a deep sigh.
"I was hoping to do this in a different way, a different location, a different time, but Mogami Kyoko, will you do me the honor of becoming my wife?"
Kyoko's face turned bright red as he said that, "What?" she repeated as he got down on one knee.
"Will you marry me and raise the baby together with me?" he asked her looking up and awaiting her answer.
