Hah, not my first story, but my first attempt to write a AU ficcie. Please read! Give it a chance! :)

Soft violet eyes pleaded to those of hard sapphire blue.

"Please don't leave me…" Kenshin said softly. He reached for her.

She looked at him with no expression on her face. "You don't understand," she said with a stern voice. "What we had was just a first stage of practice, nothing else. It's time to move on now, and you have to do it."

"NO! That's not true. What we had was love…" He pulled her body against his, relishing her warmth again. Not being able to have her in his arms for one whole month was torture. "I love you, so much…" he whispered against the top of her head.

Kaoru's heart clenched. She had to do this, she just had to. For the sake of her goal, for the sake of her living purpose… This boy, she thought, he's simply caught up in the moment, there's no way he truly loves me. All men are like this. Why must he be any different?

Kaoru pushed him away and turned away from him. "It's over. I've moved on, and you have to learn that I was your first, and you will have seconds, thirds, fourths, and so forth. I'm not the one, and you can already see that. Do you understand?"

"No... Kaoru, please. Just give me another chance. I don't know what I did wrong... maybe I'm just being too obsessive with you. But I promise, I'll give you more space to yourself, I won't call you everyday, I won't walk you home every day from school... But Just don't do this... I'd rather die than for you to leave me alone. I need you... so much."

"No. That's my final answer."

"Kaoru, you can't do this. You... you can't," Kenshin looked at her again with shaking eyes, as tears slowly began to slid.

"..."

"Koishii..." He raised his arms and attempted to hold her again. However, she did not object this time.

Kenshin looked at her blank expression, and knew this is his chance. He must act to keep her. He bent his head down, towards her soft pink lips. "I love you, koishii..." he whispered, as he planted a soft kiss on her lips. She did not respond, however, Kenshin did not waste any time. He slowly slid his tongue inside her, relishing her sweet taste. His left hand caressed the small of her back and his right hand held her tightly against him. Kaoru loved the touch of his hands on her, the things he can do to her, as she began to respond and play with his tongue with equal passion.

Suddenly, a voice began in Kaoru's head, Kaoru-chan, you have to always remember that men will play you. They are no-good beings who will destroy your life. You must learn how to play them... Revenge, Kaoru-chan, revenge. It was her mother's voice.

It hit her, to come back to reality. She pushed him away with great force.

"Good bye, and don't come after me." she replied finally, with a harsh voice that can kill. She turned around, leaving a confused Kenshin behind, sobbing his eyes out.

Awww, poor Kenshin. And Kaoru's not really, the villain here. As you can see, her mother plays a role somehow. I promise, this is the prologue, but it's a preview of what happens in the middle of the story, so this isn't the end of KK! Next chapter will be the official chapter 1, so not much fluff yet, but will be better than this chapter! :)

R&R plz.
