::It's Not What You Think::
Himura Kawaii
Chapter One
*** Disclaimers apply... Blah blah.. RK's not mine.. Hail the Great Watsuki- sama... I'm now a college stud, but still poor!!..... Don't sue me! ^_^
A/N: This story takes place a few years after the Jinchuu Arc. We won't follow what's really supposed to happen, but instead I am going to make my own story out of it!!! Hahahaha!!
::laughs maniacally::
Okay.. erm.. on with it! ^_^ ***
Kenshin woke up feeling refreshed and energetic that day. He fixed his futon and got dressed.
I wonder what Kaoru-done would like to eat today?
He looked out the window and smiled. He was going to make rice and Miso soup for breakfast. It was her favorite. He happily stepped out of the room and smiled to himself. This was going to be a good day for him.
Or so he thought.
Kaoru smelled the aroma of soup. She knew without even opening her eyes that it was Miso, her favorite. She yawned and stretched lazily on her futon as she wondered what the occasion was. She suddenly gasped when she remembered that today was the day she was supposed to meet with Ohkawa Yoshikazu[1], her husband to be. Kaoru remembered her conversation with Genzai-sensei on the previous death anniversary of her father. She didn't know that her father had left a will that was to be read to Kaoru by the time that she was already nineteen years old. According to the wall, if Kaoru was still unmarried up until the day of reading, Genzai-sensei would arrange her to be wed with one of her father's best students then. The student appeared to be a year older than Kaoru and had been at one time, her acquaintance.
Kaoru shivered at the thought of marrying someone whom she hasn't even met, or even if she did, had already forgotten. Sure, she was nineteen years old and by the standard, she was beyond a marriageable age. "But. I'm. I'm waiting for Kenshin!" Kaoru silently whined to herself.
No A voice in her head stated. You've waited for him for far too long. It's time you moved on and obeyed your late father's wishes.
kaoru hadn't told Kenshin about the agreement yet. She would be meeting Ohkawa-san for lunch. She reasoned to herself that there would be plenty of time to tell him about it. Besides, it was only a meeting. She would inform Genzai-sensei three days later if she could and would push through with the wedding. There would be plenty of time.
She just didn't know if it was she who needed time or Kenshin.
"Ohayou de gozaru yo, Kaoru-done!" Kenshin smiled as he laid a steaming cup of soup and rice in front of Kaoru.
"Ohayou, Kenshin." Kaoru smiled, uneasiness creeping through her entire body.
I have to tell him now.
She sat down beside Kenshin and smiled up at him. "Uh, Kenshin?" Kaoru began.
Kenshin turned to her, violet eyes twinkling with curiosity. "Hai, Kaoru- dono?"
That blasted '-dono'! When would he drop that?!
But instead, she said rather irritated, "Where is Yahiko?!"
"He's at Sanosuke and Megumi-dono's house." Kenshin politely answered. "He's babysitting little Arima"
"Oh." Kaoru nodded. They ate in silence for a while when Kaoru suddenly spoke.
"Kenshin?"
"Hai, Kaoru-dono?"
"Um," Kaoru bit her lower lip, not knowing how to start. "I need to tell you something very important."
Kenshin stopped eating at once and turned his full attention to Kaoru. "What is it Kaoru-dono? Is something the matter with you?"
Kaoru took a deep breath and turned to face Kenshin's intense violet eyes. "Kenshin, I'm getting married."
*** I wrote this story a loooooooooooooooooong time ago, but just didn't have the urge to continue. but now that I've dug it again, I can maybe continue it. this was a breather from "Mirai". but when I started "Twisted", I knida forgot all about this. Anyways. this one will have a different ending. maybe a not too happy one. hehe. I'm trying my hands at sad endings. ^_^
This is also the first time I wrote about RK in their original timeframe. "Mirai" and "Twisted" were both A/U so it's kinda harder cuz I had to research about traditional weddings Yes, there will be a wedding! and funerals. Good thing my speech in class is also about these stuff so, hey, I hit two birds with one research, erm, stone!
The chapters are a little shorter And slower than what I usually write. maybe we could call them "chaplets'?!
::Minna groans::
Okay, okay. I wrote four chapters a looooooooooooooooooooong time ago, as I've said, They were all short and I just did chapter five last night. If it's any consolation, chapter five turned out to be loooooooong. I'll encode them and post these chaps as soon as I can. ^_^ I hope you guys would bear with me!!! (
Thanks for all the peeps who read my other fics and will read this one. you guys simply rock! Please review and rant and rave and criticize and comment and whatever! ^_^ I'm always always always glad to hear from you. I check my reviews, like, ten times a day!!! Even during class!! Teehee. Domo arigatou gozxaimasta minna!! You make Kawaii really happy. and best of all, you make her write better and nicer fics! Love you guys!
Yosh, this is for you. ----------------------- [1]Errm. this guy is a REAL LIVE Japanese guy's name. and no disclaimers here. Plus the descriptions of Yoshi that you'll later read would really describe the true Yoshi. so the character is based on the real guy. I'd really like to claim, own, and keep this guy, err, character. teehee.. ^_^ Arigatou!
