Title: My Dream…

Disclaimer: Rurouni Kenshin does not belong to me…

Chapter One – NO!

          I stared into his intense blue-green eyes, impatiently waiting for an answer. Finally he opened his mouth and it was not the answer I wanted to hear. "No!" with that, he walked away.

          It was so silly of me, Makimachi Misao, to confess my love to the coldest (most handsome) guy, Shinomori Aoshi in Hidetoshi High. I know there was no way he was going except my love…Wiping away the tears flowing down my cheek, taking in a deep breath and then putting up a brave front, I walked back to school. Inside I was feeling hurt. Hurt that he didn't accept my love. I have been waiting for this opportunity for a very long time ever since I was a young kid when I first met him. Now it was over.

          Somehow me confessing my love to Aoshi, got around school like wild fire. As I walked down the corridor to my class Year 3B, I could hear students muttering about me.

"Did you heard about the news?"

"Oh you meant the Makimachi confessing to Shinomori?"

"Isn't she so dumb? I meant how could Shinomori even going to accept her? Beside he is in Class A and she is in Class B"

          How can they be so square? What the difference of only one class and just a miserable alphabet? Not as if those gossipers are in the top two class at all.  I tried controlling my temper, however I failed, and scanned my eyes across my class to find someone to beat up and found my victim at the back of the class, in Sagara Sanosuke.

"Hold it Weasel! I am innocent! I didn't do anything at all~~!!" ignoring him, I punched him in the stomach, knocking the air out of him but not enough to sent him crumbling to the ground.

"What was that for?" He groaned as he clutched his stomach in pain, watching me taking my place next to him.

"Ah, Sanosuke! My life is ruined! I should have listened to you~!" I moaned as I put my head down on the table.

"You mean that you actually went ahead with confessing to that Shinomori guy?" he grinned widely.

"Yeah…I did, did you heard about it?" I muttered out, hoping that he would just dropped the subject.

"No, so how was it?" taking out his English textbook from his bag as the English teacher had just walked in, I followed in suit.

"A disaster and now the whole school is talking about it." Both of us with the rest of the class stood up to greet the teacher.

" I see, I tell you what, I heard that this Shinomori guy is damn smart so why don't you put all your efforts in studying hard for the Prelim maybe you can beat that guy! Then hey- he might go out with you! I heard he is the kind who acknowledge those who really work hard."

"That's a great idea, Sano!" I turned and hug him.

"Ahem, You two at the back, cut that out and concentrate on the lesson." The whole class now was staring us both of us, some of them giggling. Sweat dropping, we immediately let go of each other, totally red in the face.

"Gomen nasai!" Both of us bowed down and immediately sat down, hiding our faces behind the English textbook.

"All you fault, Weasel!" grumbled Sanosuke as he began scribbling down the class work.

Signing deeply, I wished that the day would just end now and then go somewhere and bury my head in the ground and not coming out until there isn't oxygen left on earth.

Ring~~ *

Signaling the end of the school day. Stretching up from seat, I was so glad that the worst day in my life was finally over.

"Hey weasel, what you going to do now?" asked Sanosuke as he slung his sling bag across himself. I thought hard and realized that Jiya was out of town that day, visiting some friends in Kyoto.

"I don't know, Jiya is out of town visiting some old-aged humans. How about you? Any ideas? " Rising an eyebrow at him, hoping that he would come up with an idea.

Rubbing his chin, Sanosuke rise his eyebrow at me "I don't really know maybe let us take a ride to town and have some fun- play arcade! So that you can get your mind off that Jerk!"

"Whee…sound great! Beat staying at home alone beside I have to get something from Kenshin. Let's go!" Sanosuke snaked his arm around my shoulder, leading me out of the class, with students staring at us but not making any comments. I guess maybe they were already so used to seeing us together like example now. Many mistook us for lovers but nah… they are wrong. We are more in the brother and sister kind of relationship. Both of us have been together since the diapers days as both our families just lived side by side but now, all that changed as Sanosuke moved to another street away which was much nearer the Ryoto hospital in which both his parents are working in. I really wished that he didn't have to move away.  

Down at the car park, just as I was putting on my helmet, the most dreaded person namely Shinomori Aoshi appear beside me. I was in a rush this morning so I didn't realized that I parked my Scrambler next to his black Porsche. What a big mistake! Ignoring him, I hop on my Scrambler which given to me just last year as a Christmas Gift from Sano. Of course, my parents disapproved but when they found that I passed my driving test with a full marks. They then allowed me to ride.

"Yo Shinomori!" greeted Sano, giving him a loop-sided grin which Aoshi returned with a small nod of the head, while getting his car keys out of his pocket. From my corner of my eyes, I could see him busy chatting with Sano and at the same time looking in my direction once in a while. What the hell is that guy thinking? Maybe coz he remembered about this morning's incident.

Sano and Aoshi had been together ever since they were 9 as they were both belongs to the same dojo. I was there too, with Sano however I was always out of sight, either spying on Aoshi or just killing my time by being on the rooftop while waiting for Sano to finish his class.

Both of them had finished chatting about whatever and Aoshi had gotten into his car but didn't drive off. He seemed to waiting for somebody but who cares?

"Hop on Sano." I had to give Sano a lift today as his bike had broken down and now at the garage. Otherwise we would cruise the highway from Tokyo to Kyoto despite its long and tiring journey or just ride to town separately today. Instead I waited patiently for Sano to hop on the Scrambler before hearing the engines singing to me and sped away from the car park, all the time not looking at Aoshi, but I got a kind of feeling that he was watching me all the time, maybe I was just being paranoid. .

"Weasel, ain't you ever going to talk Aoshi again? " asked Sano as he shouted across the wind, brushing past us. I ignored him, pretending that I didn't hear him. I, myself, wasn't sure whether I was going to talk to him again. 

"Sano, might if I dropped you off at the arcade? I need to check out something" I spoke up, remembering that I had to check out Neko-chan and also my email inbox.

"Sure, no problem, just remember to meet back here" I stop the bike just outside the arcade so that it was much easily for Sano, who jumped off the Scrambler; waving goodbye I sped off to my destination.
