Confabulation. (A Skip Beat! Fanfic)

Confessions.

"Your wings grew so big and so beautiful Corn." his arms wrapped about her waist and he held her tightly. His wife, the woman he loved more than anyone and he whispered back.

"Only because I had someone as amazing as you to help me, Kyoko." Jelly slipped out. She was no longer needed and she decided that Kyoko needed time alone with Kuon if she was truly going to understand what love really is.

"OK so for the rest of the day I was thinking how about a picnic?" Kuon asked, looking down at her with those big loving blue eyes. Kyoko smiled at him. What else could she do? In those eyes she saw the 10 year old that made her life bearable. The one little boy who made her stronger and gave her hope in the shape of a blue stone.

"That sounds good." she said as Kuon leaned in and kissed her as she ran her fingers through his silky hair. Her heart skipped. Hell what's wrong with me? she wondered as she pulled away from Kuon. Her heart was pounding but that skipping feeling worried her, surely it's not normal?

"You ok, sweetie?" Kuon asked, looking down at her with concern.

"Yeah I'm fine, just had a strange feeling." she said trying to make sense of it all. It wasn't the first time she had felt that skipping feeling. Was she sick? she doubted it.

But really surely it was nothing to do with Kuon. it really had nothing to do with Kuon. Not Kuon. Not Kuon. You keep telling yourself that sweetie, her angels called to her. Her locked away heart fluttered like a newborn bird as Kuon kissed her forehead.

"What was the feeling?" he asked with a gentle smile. She looked into his eyes and looked away out of the window.

"It's nothing." she whispered and Kuon nodded accepting that fact. She would tell him when she was ready. If there was anything he had learnt from his Kyoko, it was patience.

"You know what's good too?" Kuon asked smiling as he walked into the kitchen with her following him.

"What?" she asked, watching as Kuon opened up the large fridge and started pulling wrapped parcels, drinks and other snacks and items from cupboards and off shelves. Then grabbing a large wicker picnic basket off the floor from behind the counter, he winked at her.

"I'm not only a wonderful toast cooker and butterer, I can make a mean sandwich too!" Kyoko burst into laughter as she watched him fill up the basket.

"Sorry to burst your bubble Kuon, but unless you baked the bread and cooked the meat for the sandwiches you can't class making sandwiches as cooking!" Kuon laughed as he grabbed the folded picnic blanket he had prepared off one of the breakfast bar stools.

"Oh well just for my ego's sake we will say it is." She giggled at him as he snaked his arm around her, smacking her bum as he sent her off to get ready.

They walked in silence Kuon carrying the basket in one hand the blanket slung over his shoulder, his other hand tightly entwined in Kyoko's they followed the stream along at the back of the property heading towards the mountain path.

"You know its your turn for our memory game right?" he asked slyly as they walked along together.

Kyoko looked around at him she had been happily just looking at the trees flowers and stream, but she knew he was right.

"Let me think." she said as again she looked around at her surroundings and a memory popped into her head.

"Can you remember the first time you acted against me?" she asked as she smiled at him. She expected him to think she meant Mio but his answer shocked her as he remembered.

"Oh the time you were working for the love me section with Ruriko in Ring Doh. I certainly do remember. You were simply amazing. You had never acted before and you blew me away with your natural talent. It was around then I started seeing you as a woman and not just a crazy person on a warpath for revenge." smiling at her shocked expression, he lifted her hand to his mouth and kissed her fingers lightly.
