Of course Kuon would never get away with it, he had known that from the start. As soon as he and Kyoko reappeared Julie was the first to pounce on the new piece of jewellery.

"Ren...Kyoko. Do you have something to tell us?" Julie asked her eyes sparkling as she raised Kyoko's hand to look at the beautiful piece of jewellery.

Kyoko blushed beautifully as Kuon cleared his throat before replying.

"Is a man not allowed to buy his girlfriend a ring for her birthday?" Kuon asked as both Kuu and Lory looked at him.

"You did not ask for permission young man so I hope that is not an engagement ring." Lory said showing off his most serious face, while inside he was cheering.

Kuon just looked between his and Kyoko's father who just happened to be his godfather. It was now or never he supposed.

"No Lory it is not and engagement ring, but that does not mean that one day I do not wish to replace it with such. The ring is my promise to Kyoko, that one day when I am worthy I will ask her to marry me. I will come knocking on not only your door but also the Taisho's door asking for Kyoko's hand in marriage, but until that time arrives I wanted to show Kyoko just how much I loved her and that she holds me bound to her for now and forever."

The whole little group that had been at breakfast that morning had been present for his little speech and now Kuon knew how it felt to be embarrassed. Why could he speak before a camera or as of last night before hundreds of friends, colleagues and acquaintances and not break into a sweat.

Yet before the people he thought of as family, he turned into a blushing school boy.

"Today, Tomorrow & Always." Julie whispered as she read the inscription.

"Well I think it is beautiful and good for you, Kyoko. You already have him well trained." Julie said with a cheeky smirk on her face as their friends and family laughed and chuckled in good humour and the girls all gathered around to look at Kyoko's ring.

Of course the rest of the world were not so easily informed. As soon as Kyoko hit the set of Box-R two days later and the ring was seen for the first time in public the news went viral. Tsuruga Ren and his newly named girlfriend Kyoko are engaged! If the news of the pair getting together formally and announcing it had not already hit Japan's female population hard. Then the news that the number one actor would be off the market for good, did a wonderful job.

What shocked Kyoko most though as the cast and crew of Box-R gathered around to congratulate the girl who was trying to tell them that their engagement was not the case, was the fact that everyone was so supportive. Kyoko had not expected everyone to take the news so easily. Of course there were malcontent's and some rather harsh comments left on Kyoko's website at LME, but Kuon was getting the same treatment. Yet there was no big commotion about Kyoko being with Ren. There was no big wall of people telling her she was not good enough, that Ren could do better.
