Kyoko's Fear: My co-star is scary. (A Skip Beat! Fanfic)

Breakdown.

"MO! What the hell do you think you two are doing? I was so worried when you weren't at breakfast and now I find you in bed with Tsuruga-san!" Kanae screamed as Ren and Kyoko leapt up in the bed they had shared.

OH crap...

Ren and Kyoko thought as one.

Kuma just wagged his tail lazily and yawned. Of course Kanae had known where Kyoko was, but this was all part of what she had been hoping for. She had asked Saya for the spare room cards she knew she had just in case one of her models got locked out or needed something suddenly while on location. She had the card keys to save time for everyone.

Kanae had checked Kyoko's room after her talk with Yashiro the night before to find it empty. For a moment she had been worried, but laying a gentle ear against Ren's door she had heard the soft sobs and comforting words from her best friend and Ren. She had come back up when she knew everyone else's attention would be on breakfast for this reason alone.

"Moko-san it's not what you think!" Kyoko cried as she jumped out of Ren's bed. He too rose to show he was fully clothed also.

"MO! Then what is it then?" she asked, faking an angry scowl as she crossed her arms across her chest.

"I...I..." but Kyoko didn't know how to answer that, how could she explain her thoughts from the night before? She had been afraid he wouldn't be sleeping alone that night? She had suspected him of being with Saya?, the realisation of the simple and pure fact, she was jealous of Saya. The fact that she loved Ren. How was she supposed to explain these things to Moko-san when she couldn't even explain them to Ren?

"She had another night terror Kotonami-san." Ren answered for her as Kanae crossed her arms tighter. Likely story she thought as she wanted to smile at the way the two stood like frightened children who had been caught doing something naughty.

"So why didn't you come to me Kyoko-chan? I offered to stay with you last night and you refused!" Kyoko blushed and Kanae thought she was getting somewhere when Kyoko whispered back,

"You were still with Yashiro-san and I didn't want to disturb you." this time it was Kanae who blushed, she had brought that one on herself. She thought she had refrained from saying what she wanted to see Yashiro for.

"Mo! Then what about Chiori-chan?" Kyoko's blush deepened as she looked at the floor.

"After what she was saying last night I thought it best not to disturb her." Kanae sighed. This was so like Kyoko. She stamped her foot down hard.

"Mo! Kyoko we are your friends, you would not have been disturbing us in any way." Ren couldn't help it the words left his lips before he could stop himself.

"I'm her friend too, Kotonami-san if you have forgotten." Kanae scowled at him in a menacing way.

"Yes and we all know what type of friend you want to be don't we Tsuruga-san?" Ren blushed and looked away from those cold eyes, but it was Kyoko that stood up for him in that moment.

"And what's that supposed to mean Moko-san?" Kanae could see a little anger building in her friends eyes, she wanted this spark, but she would have to be careful not to push it just yet.

Easy does it.

She thought as she backed off.

"Never mind, but I hope you know I would never see you as a burden Kyoko-chan. I thought I was your best friend!" Kanae pulled out another of her manipulations. Guilt.

"Moko-san you are my best friend! It was just last night...I..." she couldn't finish her sentence as a new voice entered the conversation.

"You what Kyoko-chan? I must say I'm surprised at you." Kyoko bristled and Kanae shot a NG look at Saya, but she never caught it or if she did, she didn't understand.
