This is the start of a series of one shots all 5,000 words or less (Not including author notes and other such things.) The stories will contain all sorts of themes, formats, genre's etc. For the most part, this is my section for stories or scenes that I thought up and won't go away. I can't justify taking the time to write them into full fledged stories so I'm sticking them here to get them out of my head. Enjoy!

Tsuruga Ren slid the key card into the lock, opening the door to his apartment with a sigh. Nothing felt as relaxing as unwinding from the day in his house. It had been a long day, and he was grateful to finally be home. Yet if he expected the nice calm apartment that usually greeted him when he got home, he was quickly disappointed.

A shrill shriek sounded from his living room, making the hairs on his arms stand up. He recognized that cry.

Dropping his bag, Ren quickly hurried to the room to see what was wrong. He was greeted with the sight of Kyoko, dressed in a school uniform, cowering in a corner of the room as she clutched a house slipper in both her hands. Her head shot up when she heard Ren enter the room, eyes widening in relief.

"Senpai!" she called, now skirting around the edge of the room to where he was. She grabbed a handful of his jacket, hiding behind Ren and pointing towards the middle of the room. "T-th-there's a r-really big spider."

"I can see that." said Ren, unable to help his amusement. He could see the offending spider sitting innocently on the floor, black and a fairly large size for the area. The woman must be really terrified of them. Kyoko was clinging to him so tightly he had to bend sideways or else risk ripping the suite.

"Give me the slipper." he said calmly, holding out a hand. With shaking hands, she gave it to him, then resumed her death grip on his arm. The whole front of her body was pressed against him now, shaking in terror.

Resisting many urges, Ren stepped towards the spider, only to be jolted back by the leech on his arm.

"Don't leave me senpai." plead Kyoko, the tears now evident in her eyes. "I'm really scared."

"But I can't kill the spider if you don't' let me go." he said, still forcing himself to be calm. He could do it. He could resist this. Forget about the warmth of her body and the soft scent of her shampoo...

Kyoko's voice interrupted his thoughts. "T-then.. I'll go with you." she said.

Slowly, the two of them cautiously crept towards the spider, having to stop every couple inches as Kyoko's grip on his arm tightened. One reason for stopping was to ensure his suite wasn't ruined. The other was to gain control of his current urges. Kyoko was very clingy towards her senpai.

They were almost at the spider when disaster struck. The black bug moved, scuttling quickly across the floor away from them. Kyoko shrieked, yanking on Ren's arm and causing him to lose balance.

The two fell in a tangle of legs and bodies. Ren managed to catch Kyoko, snaking his arm around her waist. He jerked them back, making sure she fell on top of him rather than the reverse. He let out a gasp, the pressure of her weight winding him for a moment.

"I-I'm sorry Senpai!" said Kyoko. "I didn't mean to make you fall." Her hands were pressed against his chest as she hastily tried to pull away pulled away. She moved as if to get off of him, but Ren's arm was still around her waist. He tightened his grip, not letting her escape. The girl froze, realizing what he was doing.

"S-senpai?" said Kyoko.

In a smooth sweeping motion, Ren reversed their rolls, placing Kyoko below him on the floor while he hovered above him. The girls face turned white, gazing at the man that now loomed over her.

"Are you seriously trying to kill me?" mused Ren, fingers reaching up to play with her hair. He enjoyed the silky smooth texture, bringing a strand to his lips as eyes heavy with desire peered up at her. "Or are you just trying to tempt me, because it's working."

"I-I d-don't... " said Kyoko, stammering worse than before. "S-senpai. This isn't exactly appropriate-"

That was the last straw. Ren cut off what she was going to say next, kissing her full on the lips. The girl immediately stiffened, obviously shocked by the gesture. She attempted to resist, moving her head sideways to break the kiss, but Ren wouldn't let her. He placed a hand on the side of her face, keeping it there as he kissed her again. She hesitated for only another moment, before melting into the kiss, finally responding to him.

Eventually they broke apart, Kyoko's eyes still closed as she breathed deeply. Her whole face was flushed, aura bright in delight. The moment only lasted for a second however.

When she opened her eyes, the scared girl from before was no longer there. Instead, Ren found himself gazing into the eyes of a very irate Kyoko.

"Gosh dang it Kuon, I was suppose to stay in character all day!" she said, slapping him on the shoulder. "What am I suppose to tell the director now?"

"Tell him your character was a little too tempting for me." he said, a smile still on his lips. He bent down, pressing them softly against Kyoko's neck as he murmured. "Having you call me senpai again brought back a lot of memories. "

Kyoko squirmed under his weight, unable to escape. It was cute how she tried to resis-

Kuon suddenly felt a very dark aura underneath him. He backup, swallowing as he recognized that Mio was now stationed beneath him.

"Release me." she growled, her eyes darkening. "Even if you can't be professional for one evening, I won't let you stop me from doing my work."

"You can't exactly expect me to hold back." he said, fighting the urge to apologize. It was partially her fault anyway. "Since you've already broken character, why don't you just resume practice tomorrow?"

She considered him for a moment, before heaving a sigh.

"Fine." she said, pressing her hand against his chest and pushing him back. "But first you have to get off of me. I have some unfinished business to take care of."

Kuon backed away, watching as Kyoko grabbed the fallen slipper from the ground and advanced towards the spider. Despite being grateful for it's interference, he couldn't help but feel sorry for the poor thing that was about to taste the wrath of his wife.
