Rurouni Kenshin Lemon Series

If you missed part one "Crossing Innocence" with Misao and Aoshi, please visit the website at: http://www.mindspring.com/~kyoko/creators/fanfiction.htm

I was inspired once again to write the fabulous love stories of the couples of Rurouni Kenshin. This time, the plot revolves around Kaoru and Kenshin, the two main characters. This is sure to be funny and highly romantic at that. Remember that this is a LEMON fan fiction story, so some graphic sexual scenes will be involved. Your discretion is advised.

Disclaimers

This story (and others) are the sole creation of Kyoko Takara, aka Christine Joseph. The characters are the sole creation and trademark of Nobuhiro Watsuki-sensei and Jump, and some others I don't care to mention at this time. Copyright 1998, blah blah, etc, etc. You know the deal. . . This isn't even worth suing over.

Promises, Promises

by Kyoko Takara

Kaoru laid in bed, quietly contemplating what she would do for the day. Her students had unceremoniously canceled on her, leaving her with not a thing to do. The sun was rising quickly in the sky. It had to be nearly nine o'clock already. By now, Kenshin had already served breakfast, and the Dojo was in full swing. She wasn't needed just yet. Kenshin. . .

That was a situation that was getting nowhere fast. She honestly didn't know what to do anymore. Megumi had come up with some harebrained schemes to get Kenshin to notice Kaoru and take that step forward in their relationship. It wasn't Kaoru that was holding back, it was him! Why, no one knew. However, Kaoru's mind was in a quagmire, unable to think of any other way to convince Kenshin to marry her. She wrinkled her nose. She shouldn't HAVE to resort to such schemes to make him notice her.

"Kenshin. . . .you idiot. . . ." she muttered, sitting up from her flat bed. It was time to get up. She rolled away her things, then, carrying a pretty kimono with her to her bath, she exited her room.

Something good was cooking in the kitchen, she thought. Something nice and sweet. She could almost taste it! "Oooh! That smells good!" she smiled, thinking what a wonderful snack that would make, whatever it was, after she got out of her bath.

It was strange that she hadn't run into anyone on her way to the bathing room. It was also strange that Yahiko wasn't cleaning. No, wait, she thought. Today, he was supposed to go to the Akabeko to help Tsubame and Tae out with some stuff. That left. . .Kenshin. . . .and her. . .. ALONE?!

"Mou!" she stamped her foot. How many opportunities like this had passed them both by before? It was extremely frustrating for Kaoru. "I always get chances like this, and NOTHING ever comes of it. . ."

She sighed. She was tired, confused, frustrated. . .all of the above and more. After cleaning herself and rinsing, she slipped into the warm water of the tub.

"Ahhh. . ." she moaned with pleasure. Kenshin really knew how to take care of her. Closing her eyes, she remember the last time an opportunity like this arose. . . .

<FLASHBACK>

Autumn leaves were falling outside the Dojo grounds. Everyone seemed to want to take the outdoor route that day, leaving Kenshin and Kaoru alone at the Dojo. Kenshin was consumed with his household chores, while Kaoru found herself spending the day sitting by the nearby stream, humming some tune she had in her head from the previous night. She found herself looking back across the open stretch of land at Kenshin, his mind diligently concentrated on his work. Couldn't he take a break?

"KENSHIN. . .!" Kaoru called out to Kenshin, causing him to turn to her direction. The moment he looked up at her, a blush came across Kaoru's face. The way he looked at her sometimes made her think some very naughty things.

He put down the sheet he was hanging up on the clothesline to walk over to her. He wore his normal attire of seasoned red and white hakama. There was a little stain on the sleeve, probably from cooking that morning. Moments later, he stood in front of her.

"Is everything okay, Kaoru-dono?" he asked, genuine concern in his voice.

"Yeah, I'm okay. . .I was just thinking. .. why don't you take a break over here with me. . .?" Kaoru hesitantly asked.

Thinking it over ever so briefly, Kenshin smiled graciously.

"That sounds good to me," he agreed, sitting near a blossoming sakura tree. The two leaned against the tree, until Kenshin started to speak again. "It's a nice day, isn't it?"

"Yeah. .. it's nice to relax a little, for a change, you know?" she turned right, looking at the visage of Kenshin.

He's so handsome . . . doesn't he realize this?, Kaoru asked herself. He nodded slightly, giving Kaoru a more in depth view of his face. She often wondered what Kenshin really saw her as. A little sister or a woman? That's what it came down to. . .

"Kenshin. . ." she started timidly, turning away. Kenshin's face turned to look at Kaoru.

What could be going through her head?, Kenshin wondered. Whenever her voice got all wispy like that, she was thinking something serious.

"How do you feel about me, Kenshin?" she pressed her fingers into the dark soil around the tree, looking for something cool to soothe her rising heat due to nervousness.

"Oro?" he turned to look at Kaoru, noting how nervous she was. She was biting her lip, digging her fingers into the soil and other things that gave her away.

"Don't "ORO" me, Kenshin. . .I'm serious. .." she shook her head, turning away, unable to look at Kenshin any longer. Something inside her just wanted to pull him close and hug him, kiss him. . . but that was too forward for a girl like herself. She just couldn't bring herself to do it.

Kaoru heard Kenshin's audible sigh. He laid his head back against the trunk of the tree, obviously thinking. Something told her this not something new weighing on his mind. She was almost sorry she even brought it up. Almost, but not quite.

"Kaoru-dono, you know how I feel about you," he lightly pulled the fingers of her right hand from inside the ground and into the comforting warmth of his hand. "You've done so much for me, there's no possible way I could repay you. I think we've grown quite close since we've first met."

Shaking her head, Kaoru almost wanted to laugh. He completely avoided the question. He didn't even really answer what I asked! "Kenshin. . .:" she turned to look at him, gathering courage to say what was on her mind. "That's not what I mean. I mean. . .. do you love me?"

"L-love. .?" Kenshin stumbled on the word.

Did he love her? In a way he did, openly admitting that fact. He knew she was talking about romantic love, intimate love. That was something he wasn't sure about. She'd certainly been hinting it for a long time how much she was interested in him. Kenshin just didn't know how to deal with it. Unfortunately, all the fights in the world couldn't have prepared him for this situation. The thing that bothered him immensely was the difference in their ages. Thirteen years was a lot of time, when one thought about it.

"I don't know. . .." he answered truthfully. The last thing he wanted to do was lead her on, make her think something that wasn't true. He valued his friendship with Kaoru above all things, so intimate relationships would have to be based on that and that alone.

Her heart fell at the news. Turning her head aside, unable to look at Kenshin any longer, she tried to calm her heavily beating heart.

"Is that so. . .?" she asked rhetorically. He didn't love her. . . . "Kaoru-dono. ."

"NO, Kenshin! Don't say another word. . ." she stood, looking out toward the home she loved so much. "Not another word. . ."

She began to run toward the Dojo, refusing to let Kenshin see her cry. She had cried enough over Kenshin and over the whole issue. It was a truth that she had to start accepting, the sooner the better. Kaoru just simply couldn't keep tormenting herself over someone she just couldn't have. Throwing herself into the Dojo, she found herself sitting in the far corner of the room, letting the tears flow down her cheeks onto her clothes.

"Kenshin. . ."

The sound of a sliding door didn't raise Kaoru's head. In walked Kenshin, sakaba in hand. He put it down near the door, relieving himself from its welcome heaviness. He examined Kaoru from afar. She really was hurt by his answer. The last thing he wanted to do was hurt her. Kenshin knew that much.

"Kaoru-dono. . ." he started, but heard her wince at the "dono" he usually added to her name. It was just a polite way of calling her, but it was something more. It showed aloofness, non-attachment from someone close to you. That was how Kaoru saw it. Nevertheless, he continued, slowly approaching her. "I'm sorry I hurt your feelings, but I feel that I must be true with you. That's how it's always been with us. I don't want to lie to you."

Kaoru looked up, noting quickly Kenshin was getting closer to her position. Now would be a good time to move, she thought, but her body refused to move. What. . .? Why won't I move? Before she knew it, Kenshin was kneeling before her, his face not even a foot from hers. He grasped her hand, rubbing it lightly between his two.

"I just wanted you to know where I stand, Kaoru." No "dono"? What was going on?

"What do you mean?" she asked hesitantly, her voice unsteady.

"I care about you too much to do harm to you, to make you unhappy. You've brought so much happiness to my life again. I'm sure you know this already," he said, pausing slightly before continuing. "It's just difficult to breach that one gap, that one of love. I'm afraid, Kaoru-dono."

Although lapsing back to "dono", Kaoru couldn't help but wonder at his fear. She knew, though. The loss of his first wife Tomoe, the constant threats in his life as the former Hitokiri Battousai; there was so much for him to keep himself concerned with, so much to guard against.

"Kenshin. . ." Kaoru boldly reached out to caress his cheek, "don't you realize when enough is enough? It's time for you to let yourself love again. You can't be afraid forever."

He nodded, closing his eyes. The scent of her was amazing, he thought as he brought her hand close to his lips. His eyes flew open, finding Kaoru's eyes mesmerized at Kenshin's face. He looked so serene, so happy in that moment. It was something worthy of eternal framing. In that moment, Kenshin made a decision.

"You're right, Kaoru. . ." He really was struggling with the omission of the "dono", she thought. Whatever. .. "You are absolutely right. . ."

Kenshin's gentle fingertips wiped away the remainder of the tears on Kaoru's face. He held her face with both hands, merely looking for a short time, then closing in on her lips.

"Kenshin. . " she whispered, her eyes widening at what he was about to do. He's going to --

"I'm BACK~~!!" shouted the voice they recognized as Yahiko. They both cursed silently at Yahiko's timing. "Yo, KENSHIN! Where are you?"

"Kaoru. ." Kenshin stood, holding a hand out to her. Accepting it, she stood near him about to say something until Yahiko entered the room.

"There you are! I was looking for you! Let me tell you about what happened today. .. ." he started, laughing greatly at whatever trouble he had gotten himself into that day. "I'll tell you too, ugly."

"WHAT?!" Kaoru's eyes looked daggers. Before flying after Yahiko, Kaoru shared a silent moment with Kenshin. It was a promise of next time. . . .definitely next time. . . .

<FLASHBACK ENDS -- long wasn't it?!>

The most amazing part of it all was that since that day, Kaoru had been on the go, working with different students, and Kenshin was helping out the police with some investigation. Now that things had calmed down, perhaps Kaoru and Kenshin could finally explore that new territory.

She felt herself pruning and knew it was time to get out of the refreshing bath water. The day was moving along, and so was her opportunities with Kenshin! Quickly drying and dressing, Kaoru left the bath room, setting out to find Kenshin. No doubt by now he'd be working on the laundry. Sure enough he was outside, hand to washboard, cleaning clothes.

"Kenshin. .." she smiled, waving slightly. The look on Kenshin's face gave him away totally. Love was in his face, she realized.

"Finally. ." he muttered. "I was wondering if you were going to bathe all day long! Good morning, Kaoru," he said, walking close to her until he was directly in front.

"Morning, Ken--" she started, but was interrupted by Kenshin's abrupt kiss on her lips.

Her heart started beating double time. What was he doing? she wondered, putting a finger to her lips.

"I-I. .. Ken. . .shin. . ." questions running through her mind. His bluish-violet eyes sparkled brilliantly, making Kaoru wonder what the heck was going on in his head. "Why did. . .you. ."

"Why did I kiss you, Kaoru?" he finished her question. Chuckling softly at her inability to complete a coherent thought after what he had done, he explained in a soft voice, what he was thinking. "Kaoru. .remember the last time we were alone here? I was ready to kiss you then, but. . ." he smiled wryly at the scene from those weeks past. "You made me realize just how I really do care about you, and these past weeks I've had time to consider it thoroughly. Kaoru. . ." he paused, holding her by the shoulders, "I love you. . . .I . . .love. . .you. . .. more than anything. . ."

He pulled free her favorite ribbon, letting her hair fall free. His fingers ran through it gently, working out the tangles from below. She was so beautiful, he thought, although she still looked confused.

"What's wrong?"

"Nothing. Nothing--"

"But you look so confused! I thought that you'd be happy to hear this. .." Kenshin said, now thinking that maybe he shouldn't have been so bold with it. He just couldn't hold himself back when he saw her! "Oro. . ." Kaoru said, using Kenshin's favorite phrase. "Kenshin. . .did you really mean it when you --"

"Of course I did. Come, let's go inside. .."

Taking her hand, she followed him inside to his room. She didn't remember the last time she was in his room. It was a long time ago, seeming like ages really. Sliding the door closed, they knelt before each other.

"Kaoru. . . are you happy?"

"Happy?" she parroted. "Yes. ...yes I am. . ." she said after giving it some thought. "But Kenshin, what are we doing in your room?"

He simply smiled, reaching out to touch her lips with a fingertip.

"I want to show you how much I love you, Kaoru. . . . if you'll let me."

Oh, goodness! All that planning that Megumi and she had done, was coming true! Oh, oh, what did she say, now? Kaoru thought, trying desperately to remember what Megumi had told her if this kind of situation was ever to arise between her and Kenshin. She knew what to expect.

"Kenshin. . ." Kaoru's eyes again filled with tears, happy that Kenshin shared her feelings of love finally. "I love you so much. . .show me. . ."

He needed no further words to start his parade of loving.

Although it had been a long time for Kenshin since he had last engaged in any sexual activity, his body was primed for it. He wanted to give all of himself to Kaoru. For a long time, he held himself back from her, from everyone, fearing that his past would hurt his relationships with them all. He got close to them, but not as close as he COULD be. Things were different now. Kenshin felt differently for the first time in 10 years. He felt love, in love with and receiving love from Kaoru.

Kenshin was still an old-fashioned type of guy, and deep down inside, he wanted to do right by Kaoru by taking her hand in marriage. Something inside him told him to do this, though. Something told him to make love to Kaoru, right now, right here, in the brightness of the day. Nothing mattered but this moment. Mutually, the two stood, facing each other. They both grew serious, realizing the gravity of what they were about to do. Today would be the changing point in their lives. Nothing would be the same. Nothing. But it certainly was for the better. . . .

"Kenshin. . ." Kaoru wrapped her arms around his waist, looking for an intimate embrace with the man she loved so desperately. He returned the embrace quickly, resting his head near her ear. Her scent permeated his senses, driving him to close his eyes. No. . .he wanted to see everything. He HAD to see everything.

Moments later, Kaoru felt Kenshin's lips playing with her ear, causing her to giggle. He was tickling her. . .! How playful, she thought. His lips trailed down to her neck, nuzzling softly at the sensitive skin near the edge of her kimono. Kaoru let out a soft sigh, her body relaxing gradually under the tender touch of Kenshin.

"Ken. . .shin. . ." she moaned, her eyes fluttering closed. His gentle, patient hands untied her kimono, the folds of her clothing gaping open. The cool air crossing her bosom caused Kaoru's eyes to open. Before she even saw Kenshin's head go down to her breasts, she felt his lips reverently stroking her. The feeling was overwhelming her senses, turning her knees into jelly.

Luckily, Kenshin anticipated her fall. He held her, gradually lowering her to the softness of the unrolled futon. Before joining her, his eyes grasped hers as he opened the folds of his top, allowing it to fall to the floor. Kenshin smiled softly at Kaoru, finally lowering his body over Kaoru's. By now, Kaoru's kimono had half-fallen off her body, leaving her torso bare. If Kaoru was embarrassed at all, Kenshin couldn't tell. She was so fixated on him, the way he was pleasuring her, that she seemed to forget what he had done. Under normal circumstances. . . . These were certainly anything but normal circumstances.

"Are you okay, Kaoru?" Kenshin asked, his chest light brushing against the tips of her nipples. Kaoru's body lit up immediately. She began to writhe beneath him, her body craving more contact. "Kaoru. . ."

"Kenshin. . .I. . ." her dry mouth tried to say, but psychically, Kenshin lowered his mouth to hers, moisturizing those wondrous lips of hers.

"Kaoru, let me see you. . ." he whispered on her lips. "I want to see you in all your glory. . . ."

Knowing what he meant, she blinked, slightly shocked at Kenshin's forwardness. She then realized how much she wanted to show herself to Kenshin. For the longest time, she'd considered herself Kenshin's, even though he didn't actually claim her. Now that he had, he was certainly entitled to this. She WANTED to indulge him!

"Go ahead, Kenshin. Do it. . ." she said, raising her knees. She watched Kenshin pull her kimono off torturously slow. Before she knew it, she was completely naked. Kaoru knew she had to be blushing, she could feel the heat lowering from her cheeks down to the rest of her body.

"Kaoru. . .. " Kenshin began, running a hand down the middle of her body, through the valley of her breasts, across the gentle plain of her stomach and to the foothills of her dark mound. He found himself speechless. She was like a goddess. In that moment, Kenshin could feel his body reacting powerfully to the sight before him.

"Nothing else to say, Kenshin?" Kaoru smiled, grabbing one of his hands to rub his palm against her cheek.

Instead of answering her, Kenshin placed one of his hakama-clad legs between hers. The friction of the cloth against her skin gave Kaoru a strange sensation. Her body had a small glow of perspiration, making the torture even worse. By now, she felt an unfamiliar wetness between her legs. All the heat she felt was centered at that particular point. Maybe what Megumi had said was true. . .

"I want. . . .to. . .. " Kaoru stammered, but couldn't finish her sentence as Kenshin's lips rained kisses all over her bare body. Working his way at her face down to her stomach, Kenshin heard her speak. As he lifted his face to look up at her, his nose caught the distinct scent of arousal. She was almost ready for him.

"What would you like. . .? Tell me. . ."

"To see you. . . ." she ran a fingertip across the cross scars on his left cheek. "Please. . ."

"Kaoru. . .you don't have to ask. . ." Kenshin shook his head slowly, raising himself to a standing position. Coming to an elevated position, Kaoru sat up to remember this moment. Untying the belt on his hakama, it flowed off of his body and onto the floor. Kaoru's gasp caught in throat as she was "face-to-face" with the evidence of his arousal. Arousal was certainly what Kenshin was experiencing, and that look on Kaoru's face didn't help any. His keen sense of observation also told him how aroused she was. He, once again, lowered his body to hers, this time fully between her legs.

"Ahh. . . .Kenshin. . .!" she moaned loudly, the feeling of Kenshin's tumescence resting between her warm, most folds, and particularly against her pleasure center, was unbelievable. This kind of feeling couldn't be possible!

"Come, Kaoru. . ." he urged, kissing her deeply. His kiss-swollen lips released hers. "It's time. . .do you want to--" Kenshin began, but was quickly stopped by Kaoru's fingertip.

"I know what's going to happen, Kenshin. I'm not afraid, if that's what you think," she paused momentarily, trying to calm the pulsing sensation between her legs long enough to get out a coherent thought. "Kenshin. . .I love you so much. . . .make me yours. . ."

At those words of confirmation, he slowly eased his way inside Kaoru. He experienced the atypically male joy of discovering the maidenhood of your loved one. Between the two of them, there were enough raging emotions to last two lifetimes. As he took a deep breath, Kenshin was surprised when Kaoru thrust upward to him, sending him crashing through her barrier. Her eyes shut closed, tears flowing down her face.

"Kaoru! Are you okay? Why--" Kenshin held himself as still as possible, hoping desperately that her pain would go away., but Kaoru surprised him when she began to giggle. "Kaoru. . !" Kenshin gave her an "ORO" look, groaning softly. That giggling sent amazing vibrations throughout Kenshin's body, his arousal responding by lengthening a bit more.

"I'm fine, Kenshin. In fact, I'm great right now. . " her bright smile warmed his heart. For a moment there, he was scared that her wild action had hurt her. "Kenshin. . . .?"

"Kaoru. . .?" he wiped away the residue from her tears, kissing them away.

No more words were necessary. Kenshin understood completely why Kaoru had done what she did. She had no fear whatsoever, and she trusted Kenshin so completely that Kaoru had no reason to believe that pain would come. Kenshin's body began moving unconsciously, indulging in the sweet nectar that was Kaoru Kamiya. Kaoru wrapped her arms around Kenshin, his warm and glistening body gliding over hers. Oh, the torture!, Kaoru thought. She felt like she was drunk, her head light and carefree, and her body soaring high into the skies. But this was rock hard earth, and Kenshin was the one that was the source of all the earthquakes from within.

"Kenshin! Ohhhh!!" Kaoru shouted uncontrollably, grabbing wildly at Kenshin's bare back. She could feel her body tightening around Kenshin, then the sudden blast of pleasure streaming throughout her entire body. The pulsing from Kaoru stopped Kenshin in mid-stroke.

"Ohhhh. . ." he groaned, the sound resonating through the room. "Just. . .once. . .more. . .." Kenshin muttered slowly, pulling out of Kaoru fully, then filling her completely in one quick stroke. "Kaoru!!!"

Kenshin's release took everything out of him. It was blinding experience; for a few minutes, Kenshin laid passed out on Kaoru's lush body. He awoke, still hard inside her body.

"Again?" Kaoru asked curiously, giggling.

"Hey! That giggling of yours is dangerous!" Kenshin smiled at Kaoru with love in his eyes. "Kaoru. . " he said, his eyes began to grow serious.

"Yes, Kenshin. . .?"

"I think we did this in the wrong order, but. . ." he began, but before Kenshin could complete the sentence, Kaoru gave him a response. "Yes, Kenshin. I'll marry you. . ."

"Good. . ." he happily replied, running his hand up and down her back.

"I love you, Kenshin. . ."

"So do I, Kaoru. . . .so do I. . ."

The two dozed off, and for the remainder of the afternoon, they continued to explore each other fully. Realizing the day was quickly disappearing, they dressed, albeit slowly and teasing each other mercilessly, then started preparing dinner.

"I guess this means I really do have to take those cooking lessons from Tae-san now. . ." Kaoru smiled at Kenshin's expression when she said that she'd cook something new. "I can't have my husband cooking for me all the time, now. . ."

Just then, Yahiko, Megumi, and Sanosuke slammed open the door.

"TADAIMA!" Yahiko called out, slightly reminiscent of the time in the Dojo.

Megumi looked around at the house. Not a single thing had been done that day. Unlike the other unobservant males, she noticed that the laundry hadn't been done. What DID they do all day? They caught sight of Kenshin and Kaoru preparing the evening meal in the kitchen.

"Kaoru! A word with you, please --" Megumi strolled into the kitchen, grabbing Kaoru's hand and dragging her off to another room.

"MEGUMI!! What are you DOING?!" Kaoru asked.

Megumi gave her a good, close look. She had a certain glow in her face, Megumi thought. Could it be. . .?

"Kaoru, did you and Ken-san. . .?" Megumi left the question unfinished. Something in her mind told her that something important had finally transpired between Kenshin and Kaoru. She wanted the confirmation from the horse's mouth, though.

Kaoru couldn't stop herself from blushing madly. It was strange how so much had changed in a matter of hours, but it was certainly different now. She nodded her head in confirmation. "Megumi," Kaoru smiled softly at her friend, then embraced her tightly. "Thank you for everything! Everything. . ."

Sighing softly, Megumi returned the caring gesture. Her work there was done. . Here she was helping everyone else out, and she couldn't even get her own situation straight, she thought. Well, someone deserved happiness, and it certainly was Ken-san and Kaoru.

They returned to the table to begin the meal. Yahiko had taken a short leave of absence into his room. For him to NOT be hungry was strange, but he looked slightly preoccupied. Sanosuke glanced over at Megumi, wondering what that little disappearing act from before was all about. Women, he thought. As they started eating, Sanosuke began talking about his brief gambling bout with some strange guys, but the conversation quickly turned toward the activities in the Dojo that day.

"So, what'd you guys do here all alone today?" Sanosuke's innocent question got several throat-clearing responses, however Megumi looked directly at Kenshin, daring him to deny what she was about to say. "Kenshin and Kaoru are finally together. ."

Sanosuke's eyes turned to Megumi, then to Kenshin and Kaoru. Quickly putting two and two together, he jumped up from his seat, laughing uncontrollably.

"It's about damn time!" Sanosuke went around the table to playfully punch Kenshin in the shoulder. "Congrats, man!" "Sano. . ." Kenshin chuckled nervously at Sanosuke's comments.

The four of them spent the remainder of the meal chatting about how much would change around the Dojo once Kaoru and Kenshin tied the knot. Certainly the living arrangements would be different. . .Megumi noted how much the two lovers were stealing gazes at each other. It was time for them to make their exit.

"Come, Sanosuke!" she announced, standing up, grabbing Sanosuke's ear at the same time.

"Ow, ow, OW!" Sanosuke's face cringed in pain . What was this fox lady made of?!

"We're going to be on our way now, Ken-san, Kaoru. We'll see you later, ok?" Megumi waved to the two before they could say a word, dragging the semi-helpless Sanosuke behind him. He was spewing the expected string of curses at the way Megumi was manhandling him. All they heard next was, "You know you LIKE when I do that. . .", then the tell-tale fox-like laughter.

Sweatdrops fell from Kenshin and Kaoru's heads at the sounds. "They're crazy. . .funny how they haven't gotten together yet," Kaoru stood, walking toward the open screen door. The stars were out in full view, their brilliant light shining down on the Dojo like a blessing. She heard Kenshin's light footsteps walking in her direction, then his arms wrapping around her waist.

"Give them time. . . ." Kenshin whispered in her ear. "Just like I needed the time. . ."

"Yeah . ."

Cool night air flowed over them, but neither Kenshin nor Kaoru could feel it. Nothing but the heat of their love radiated through their bodies, minds and hearts. It was a heady prospect for them both.

"Kenshin. . ."

"Mm?" he asked silently, kissing the nape of her neck.

"Hold me close. . .." Kaoru whispered.

"Of course I will. . .always. . . I promise. . ."

C&C always welcome! Hope you enjoyed it! Next is Sanosuke and Megumi (as you probably saw hinted in the storyline. . .^_^)
