I know...it's been awhile. I was listening to my Jekyll and Hyde soundtrack, and the song Someone Like Youit made me think of an RK fanfic. Here we go!
And sadly, I still don't own Rurouni Kenshin...*sigh*

He passed by me again today. It seems to be a routine of ours. Every day, I stand on the corner of 2nd and Pike, and every day at ten o' clock, he walks by. He always seems so cheerful, as if he has no care in the world. You can't tell by looking at him, but he is one of the richest men in town. He doesn't dress fancy, unless the occasion calls for it, he tends to walk to places instead of riding in a fancy carriage, and he lives in a small townhouse in the city instead of some giant mansion in the outskirts of town. He even does his own shopping and mingles with commoners.
Every day, at ten o'clock, I wait for that feeling, where my heart flutters. Just looking at him makes me feel so alive.
Every day at ten o'clock, I think about stopping him and getting him to talk with me, but memories from my past hold me back, reminding me that I am unworthy.
Every day at ten o'clock, I hope that he will look my way, and see me as a person, not just some ragged beggar.
I know that it's impossible, and that I, Kamiya Kaoru, have no chance with Himura Kenshin.
