Chapter One
Part One-The Insider's Edition
Another day at the dojo. More work, yet she didn't complain. It was life. And if it was what she could do to keep him here, then she wouldn't complain. She had lost too much, too soon. He was the most perfect thing in her life, aside from the new friends he had encouraged. She had never been so happy. Of course, she made sure no one else knew that...
"Onii-chan!"
"Oro?"
"Let's play catch!"
"Hai, hai, let's!"
The picture; Himura Kenshin, running around like there was no tomorrow with Ayame-chan and Sazume-chan on his back. It was a standard thing, something that happened everyday. They all enjoyed it. Miss Kaorou could do her work, Ayame and Sazume could have their fun with Kenshin, and Yahiko, the little delinquent who they had caught pick-pocketing to pay back his dead mother's debts, was inside, practicing. After all, being Miss Kaorou's student, he knew that if he didn't get to practice soon, she would be at his backside for it. It was just missing one person...
"OY! Jo-chan!" came the gruff voice. Even though his face wasn't visible, it was clear to the group, or the Kenshin-gumi, who the owner was...
"Hey, Sano!" replied Kenshin, gently placing Ayame and Sazume on the ground. He walked over, and gently pushed Sanosuke Sagara, the newest member of the group, towards the dojo doors. "Kaorou-dono, I will be making Sano some lunch, that I will. If you need help, please call!" Kenshin shouted, as he left.
"Kenshin! I want something to eat too! Don't you dare forget about me!" came the young boy's voice. Although he was only ten, he certainly thought of himself as a whole lot older and stronger than a boy his age. Yahiko threw down his bamboo sword as he ran into the dojo.
"Geez", mumbled Kaorou, "am I the only one here that is willing to do work?" Thinking to herself, she quickly swept at the ground. But a large, loud, and long grumble interrupted those thoughts and placed a new one into her head. "I'M HUNGRY!!!!" She cried, running into the dojo, and tripping over her broom. "BAKA!" Throwing her broom behind her, she continued up the stairs, and stalked into the room. "Kenshin, what are we having? And you two", she grumbled to Yahiko and Sanosuke, clearly not in a good mood after being tripped by a broom "why're you there, being useless? Go grab us some water."
"H-h-hai!" they said, and quickly rushed out of the door. Kenshin stared, and grinned.
"Kaorou-dono, I'm afraid you've scared them, that you have. Can I ask you what's wrong?"
Kaorou sighed. Just looking at him made her want to spill her deepest secrets...but she couldn't do that. Quickly pulling herself together, she hit him hard on the head with the closest pot. "Of course nothing's wrong, so there's no need to ask." She got up quickly, and ran out of the room, ignoring the Kenshin lying in a heap at the table.
"Oro?"

A couple of hours later, with Kenshin and Yahiko asleep, Dr. Gensei and his two granddaughter's at their home, and Sanosuke at his, Kaorou sat outside, silently staring in the sky, searching for an answer it couldn't provide. She wondered...what Kenshin thought about. She wondered...about certain feelings she had. Her ever-growing emotions to him never seemed to go away. Why, did he do this to her? He was so protective, and polite, and the fact that he could cook way better than she ever could helped too...
