Ch. 11
(A/N): Hello everyone I know it's been a while, but like the last update it has taken me a while to write this chapter. I plan to however not be so lazy with the next few chapters next month. So since it's almost July I will make sure to have four chapters up all at once come mid-July. After that at the end of August will have the next four chapters. In other news I have made a note on the B-Pro's Princess story, I will not go into detail about, but letting everyone I might discontinue and do another B-Pro one-shot instead. If the fandom starts up again I will start it up again, but the last fan fiction for bp was mine. As for New Beginnings I plan to revise this coming month, so if you are knew and you have read some of it please tell me what you think. For those who haven't read it I wait till August. Now for the story, and thank you for the follows, faves, and reviews. I do not own MK-LT.
Ch. 11
As Kotoko stared at the stars, she hardly knew that someone was standing behind her. "Beautiful night isn't it," said Naoki startling her. Kotoko jumped a little when she heard him. "Sorry I didn't mean to startle you."
"Its fine," said Kotoko. "My kids like to scare me sometimes." Kotoko settled back down into her calmness. Naoki just stood beside her in an awkward silence next to her.
"Um do you mind if I sit next to you," said Naoki with a little nervousness in his voice.
Kotoko just looked up at him then the seat next to her. "I guess you can," said Kotoko looking at the stars again. Naoki took the opportunity and sat down next to her. It was still a little strange at how much she had changed from the girl who was madly in love with him, but now was a woman who no longer had deep feelings for him other than a possible friendship.
If she was her old self she would have jumped at the opportunity to have Irie Naoki sit right next to her; but she was not her old self. Not only did he break her heart but she was a mother of two. She had had grown in the last couple of years, and now was his chance to learn about her new self.
"Yuki didn't tell me much about you about the last couple years after you left, but I bet he told our parents since he was so mad at me," Naoki started to say. "Though he did tell me you became a nurse."
Kotoko felt nervous, this was one conversation she hoped to hold back until she was at her new job. "Um yeah, for about few years now," she started to say. "I had to go part time after my husband got sick, but went back to full time after he died." At that last comment she looked sad.
When Naoki noticed her expression he decided to move the conversation along. "Can I ask what made you want to be a nurse?" At that her sadness was replaced with nervousness and embarrassment, but then replaced with seriousness.
"I decided to become a nurse to prove that I could do something," Kotoko started to say. "I wanted to do something to help people, and not be a hindrex to others. When I was pregnant with Yuga I thought about how could I support my son when I moved out of Sara's, but even after we got together I still thought of what could I do for him and for others. Then I…" she took a deep breath, "I thought about you and what you almost gave up. Yuki had told me, or more like had to force him to tell me that you had become a doctor. I guess in a way I was proving a point to you as well what I was capable enough to do anything that I wasn't…"
"I think I get it, and you have," said Naoki. Kotoko just looked at him. She didn't want to at met while she looked at him how handsome his stupid face looked. "I'm happy that you found something and someone special." Kotoko didn't know what to say. She looked to the ground and said thank you. "I meant what I said earlier. That you don't have to be afraid about talking about him." She just nodded her head still looking at the ground.
Naoki was shocked when she told him about where she was working, but most shocking thing was when she said, "And I won't ignore you when I see you." Naoki just nodded his head this time.
They sat in award silence not knowing what else to say just looking at the stars. "So I heard Sahoko is on a business trip?" asked Kotoko.
Naoki looked shocked that she would bring her up. "Um yes, she is," said Naoki.
Kotoko had heard that after a while she had decided not to a stay at home wife, but went to work at her grandfather's company. She had brought her company to new heights, and as of late had been going on a lot of overseas business trips.
"Do you plan to tell her about everything when she comes back, or do you plan to wait when she is in a good mood?" asked Kotoko.
"Why do you want to know?" asked Naoki raising an eyebrow.
"I want to tell her I'm sorry," said Kotoko. "Most of it, like 75% is you fault, but I still did it with you."
Naoki just sighed, "She will probably forgive you better than me since I'm the one who made you leave."
"Maybe, but still I want her to know how I feel," said Kotoko.
As he looked at her he could tell that she did feel some guilt about what happened. "I plan to tell her when she comes home tomorrow," said Naoki.
Kotoko just smiled at him as a thank you. "I hope you have been happy with Sahoko," said Kotoko sounding sincere.
Naoki remembered what Yuga had told him, and what he had said that nigh so long ago. "I've been happy as I can be," Naoki said as he looked back up at the stars.
Kotoko just looked at him before looking back up at the stars. In some way the awardness silence was replaced with an understanding peace. As they both now looked up at the sky they saw two shooting stars.
Unbeknown to Kotoko someone made a wish.
(A/N): Sorry this chapter was short but I hoped you all liked it.
