Darkened Jealousy—Chapter 8

Okay… I really am not in the mood to write for this story. Guys, please check out my story Broken… I believe it's my best story so far. It's a Vampire Knight fanfiction, but even still, I hardly have anyone reviewing and favoriting.

Sorry to be such a complainer; I've just been working hard lately on it.

Enjoy!

~~~Kyoko's POV~~~

I practically skipped out of LME that day, my bike eagerly awaiting me from where it sat. I felt so much… lighter: Happier. All of the worries I had for a while now fled me, leaving me with a calm feeling I hadn't felt in a long while.

My lips were still swollen from our little… well, you get the point. Even touching my lips brought a shudder down my spine… That look in his eyes…

I sat my purse down in the front basket of my bike, humming a random tune that popped into my head as I made sure my things would stay inside of the bike.

"Well, looks like Ren's playmate is in a good mood." A familiar voice sneered from behind me. I quickly whipped around, anger bursting around me in flames.

"Shou… Leave me alone." I said with a deathly calm voice, my eyes narrowed as I turned to face him. He smirked at my expression, taking a step closer to me.

"Why should I? Maybe I want some service from you—After all, Ren doesn't REALLY like you." He said, moving me back until I hit the wall before grabbing my wrist and pulling it upwards.

"Shut up! You don't know anything about love, you monster!" I said, trying to fight back tears. What if he was right? What if Ren was only being a playboy, or he just thought I was an even bigger slut now?

"Why would he like such an unappealing, slutty little girl like you when there are so many better women out there? You're being delusional, Kyoko." Shou said, his voice not sounding malicious, but his eyes gave it away.

"LET ME GO!" I screeched, hoping someone had heard me as I tried to tug my wrist out of his grasp. HE chuckled, grasping my other wrist and pushing it up against the wall as well.

"I just want what Ren's having, whore…" He sneered, and I wanted to cry. Was his only intent to make me cry at his feet?

"Listen to the girl, and let her go, Fuwa."

I wanted to cry in relief. His voice was like my lifeline, causing Shou to drop his arms and turn around. When I saw the look on Ren's face, I knew something was going to happen.

"How many times to I have to bruise that pretty face to get you to realize that I mean what I say." The look Ren was giving Shou even scared me; and it wasn't even directed at me! He seemed like an entirely different person!

"Why would you risk your reputation for such a little slut?"

As soon as that final word fell from Shou's mouth, Ren was gone. I could barely see him move as he clipped Shou's jaw hard, knocking him to the ground before he walked over to me, grasping my hand and helping me up.

Ren pulled me forward, glancing back to see Shou still on the ground as we walked off to his car.

Ren looked absolutely murderous. At first, I thought he was Cain because of the aura he was giving off, but now? Hell no. This was definitely Ren, but he was pissed.

'OH MY GOD I HOPE HE ISNT MAD AT MEEEE!' I squealed internally, my inner clone darting underneath a table and cowering.

Without a word, he pulled open the passenger door and ushered me in before sliding into the driver's seat. I risked a sideways glance at him as he stuck the key in the ignition, and if at all possible his mood seemed to have gotten worse.

"R-Ren…?" I said, risking his fury unleashed upon me. He looked absolutely scary to me, but he only looked at me with stormy eyes before turning his attention back to the road.

"Are you mad at me?"

The car screeched to a halt as Ren stared at me, dumbfounded.

"How on EARTH do you think that? I'm pissed off at Shou, because he's the reason you're so closed up to everything!" He yelled, and I whimpered. He looked at me apologetically, before speaking with a calm voice, not unlike the one you would speak to an injured animal with.

"Kyoko… I only want to protect you."
