Chapter 8

Sunlight sparkled, illuminating drifting dust motes in the air. Kyoko felt warm and happy; she didn't want to get up. The floor was much more comfortable than yesterday. "I guess I just got used to it!"she thought happily. She tried to get up but found something was holding her down. She opened her eyes and rubbed them sleepily. "Huh?"she looked sideways,"Ren? Wait, Ren!"she exclaimed,"Dang it!"she covered her mouth with both hands. "Wait!"she realized," Yesterday was the last day of no talking."she thought. "Yeah! I'm free!"she grinned happily.

She suddenly realized again where she was and blushed. "How did I get here?" All of a sudden, she grasped the memory of what happened last night after she went to sleep. "Oh, jeez!"she smacked her head,"I must have been sleep-walking."

Kyoko had had that problem since she was a little kid. She would always find herself in some absurd place when she woke up. Kyoko thought that her problem had disappeared already since it hadn't happened since she was ten, until today.

"Since it's my fault, I shouldn't bother him."she contemplated. She gently slipped out from under his arm and quickly put her pillow under it. Ren hugged the pillow and didn't wake up.

"Ehh! Was he hugging me like that too?!" A blush slowly rose at the idea of that and she quickly began making breakfast to take her mind off of it.

Later:

Ren woke up to absolute darkness. He couldn't even see his own hand in front of his face. "That's weird."he proceeded to rub his face when his hand encountered something papery. It turns out it was a note from Kyoko taped to his face.

Dear Tsuruga-san,

Thanks for everything! Breakfast is on the table and if it's cold, you can heat it up. Moko-san called and said that she's back and I can stay at her place now. See you at work!

Kyoko :)

Ren looked around. Sure enough, Kyoko's things were gone, except for her pillow, which was on his bed. "Aww, she's probably hates me now."he put his head in his hands.

"Wait, what does this mean?"he squinted at the pillow but was interrupted by the doorbell. He quickly got off the bed to answer the door. "Maybe Kyoko came back to get her pillow?"his heart lifted at the slight chance.

He opened the door, only to see Yashiro smiling broadly. "Yashiro?"

"I'm here to drive you to work. Go get dressed. We'll talk in the car."Yashiro ordered.

Later in the car:

"So, did you and Kyoko hook up or something?"Yashiro asked with a big smile.

"Uh, no?"he said.

Yashiro turned around,"What?!" The car swerved.

"Ahh, keep your eyes on the road!"Ren shouted.

He turned back around. "Hmph, I cannot believe that you messed up the chance I gave you! You're useless at these things!"

At the LME building:

"The president wants to talk to you,"Yashiro said. Ren started to walk towards the office. When Yashiro didn't follow, he looked back.

"Aren't you going to come too?"Ren said.

"Nope,"Yashiro shook his head,"You have to go alone."

"Alright, bye then."Ren said with a wave.

"Yashiro-san?"Kyoko came running,"Can I ask you something?"

"Huh, Mogami-san? Ren just left."he pointed his thumb over his shoulder in the direction Ren left in.

"No, I just want to talk to you, Yashiro-san."Kyoko said.

"Huh?"he said.

One conversation later:

"Oh, so you want to give Ren a present for letting you stay at his place."Yashiro concluded.

"Yep."she said.

"Well, I know what you can give him that will make him super happy."he grinned and whispered in her ear.

"Are you sure about this?"she questioned.

When Ren came back:

What happens when Ren comes back? I lied ,sorry, the next chapter is the last chapter. I didn't think I could finish today ,so , I cut the chapter in half. Sorry. Please review and if you catch a glimpse of a grammar error please tell me. Have a day filled with greatness!
