    “Iruka, I want you to know how this will work.”
    “Sir?”
    “My daughter…she really has grown up independent. She hasn’t had a mother to depend on, and she doesn’t come to me for much help. The only one she can really trust in this business is you right now, and that is why I appreciate you like you were my own son.”
    “Thank you sir, you were also like a father to me. If it weren‘t for you taking me in after everything that happened back then…”
    “Iruka you don’t need to say anymore. I‘m glad that when I leave, I have someone like you to protect my Sayu and the actress Reina she has created.”
    “Sir…what are you talking about?!”
    “I didn’t want to say this in front of anyone else…but I’m slowly dying…”
    “Sir?!”
    “I have a lot longer than I thought to live, by the end of this year. That is why even though these kids think I’m being selfish or unreasonable…it’s because I want to see everything before I’m gone. I want to see my daughter have normal friends and go with them to school, I want her to smile and be free and not worry about adult matters while she is in her teen years.”
    “But why did you make those two get engaged if they’re too young? And with a guy known to be the biggest playboy around?!” I asked.
    “Because…Akira is a great man, and I can see that in his eyes…he will be able to make her happy in the end. Although at first they might take over some hardships…they’re good together. And in any case, it will make her independent since she‘s not eighteen yet.”
    “Sir…”
    “Iruka, you’re a man! Stop crying!”
    “I’m sorry sir, but I just don’t want you to go!”

    What Reina’s father told me that, it really surprised me…I wonder how she will take it? I watch her and Akira walk out of the building.
    “Perverted playboy, stop following me!”
    “We’re leaving in the same car! It’s not intentional, trust me!”
    “Trust you?! HAH!!! Yeah right!!!”
    “Ow! Did you just step on my foot again?! You little…!!!” I sighed as I watched the two argue. Sir, I hope you know what you’re doing…
    “Perverted mushroom head!”
    “Bitter looking old hag!”
    “Get away from me!”
    “BOTH OF YOU STOP IT RIGHT NOW AND GET INTO THE DAMN CAR OR WE’LL BE LATE FOR CLASS!!!!!!!” I shouted to them as I stood by the car. They stopped and rushed into the car like little kids. I sighed, they might be famous and look mature, but they act way younger than their age…

    [Reina]
    “Kyaa, look it’s Ryo!” The girls like always went to greet him when we walked into the school gates. But now none of them mattered anymore, and I knew it was just because of Chitose. It’s been two weeks living with that monster Akira whatever Ren guy! In these two weeks of school though, I somehow managed to get a few friends.
    “Riku, over here!” A group of girls waved me over. This was somehow my new friends, and it’s only because I accidentally saved Chitose from a bunch of Ryo crazed fans.
    “Riku, you look just like your old proper and prim self.” Kotome, one of the girls smiled as I arrived next to them.
    “Yeah, it seems you always dress the same.” Fujika, the second girl giggled.
    “It doesn’t matter, because Riku is Riku.” Hirari, the third girl blushed.
    “Ha-ha, that’s right!” Kotome and Fujika cheered and we were already on our way to class. I liked that I had friends…so I told my father I’d stay enrolled in school…and so he made it clear that Akira and Iruka would continue as well.
    “I still can’t believe that Akira and Reina got engaged. I just can’t believe the playboy is being tamed now…” A fellow classmate said as we entered the room. A bunch of people were crowded around her and the magazine they were staring at.
    “Yeah I know, if he’s being tamed then it really must be love.”
    “It must be great to be in love.” The girls all sighed. I rolled my eyes. Three days after Akira and I moved in together, the paparazzi found out and so we had to make a public statement because of my father…So we went on a TV talk show to share…
    “We have the infamous playboy Akira Fujikage and Reina…Now tell us, how long has this relationship been going on in secret?” The host asked us. Even though inside I was disgusted, Akira and I were holding hands while we sat on one of the show couches.
    “Well, we’ve been going out for a year an a half really. It’s a shame, we almost could have gotten married without the public knowing.” Akira smiled. He looked like an adult right now, he was even wearing a suit while I wore a dress.
    “Oh my ha-ha. Well some of the viewers want to know, are you guys okay with getting married at such a young age?”
    “Well, of course we’re not going to get married so soon. I‘m still fickle with all of this since he played around too much.” I giggled slightly.
    “Oh-ho-ho! Looks like you’ve been barking like a dog to win back Reina’s trust?” Akira blushed, I could tell he didn’t like what I had said.
    “Um well…I know I’ve been known to go home with other woman, but this is why I want to marry Reina. I want to show her I made some mistakes in the past, but I’m doing better now for the sake of not losing her.” Akira put his arms around my shoulder and hugged me close. How disgusting, I thought but smiled anyway.
    “Aww, that is just too sweet! Who ever knew that the cool dangerous and collected playboy, would actually be such a warm sensitive being?!” This host is going on the top of my list! I pouted secretly.
    “So, where is the ring that no one has seen yet?” She asked.
    “Well, since Reina’s finger was too big I had to get it fixed. So we’re still waiting on that, isn’t that right sweetie?” Akira looked at me with an unnoticeable wink and visible fake smile. How dare he say my finger was too big!
    “Oh honey don’t need to be shy, it’s okay to say that Akira just picked any ring off the rack because he was so nervous. So he didn’t realize that it wasn’t really a ring of our love, so we went to search together and after we picked a winner, he went and got it engraved for me!” I smiled beautifully.
    “Oh my now, what will the ring say?!” The host smiled openly.
    “That’s a secret, this cutie won’t tell me.” I pinched Akira cheeks. He laughed but I knew he was irritated and wanted to leave just like I did!
    “Well, we’ll be taking a short break. Stay tuned…”

    “Alright class, we are about to begin so please take yours seats.” The teacher came into the room finally. I looked over at Akira AKA Ren, and saw that he was looking at his book intensely. Wow, he really knew how to play a nerd. I rolled my eyes.
