Naked

[The day woke up with its reddish tones in clouds, the life woke up in the city and the beautiful birds began to sing their sweet melodies giving him the welcome to the new day…]

I wake up in the morning

Put on my face

The one that's gonna get me

Through another day

Doesn't really matter

How I feel inside

'Cause life is like a game sometimes

[Kenshin, wide-awake, laid down in his futón, watching the ceiling of his room, listening to the glad sound that emits the birds. He rises, fixes the room and it is arranged to change his clothes...surprised, he realizes that he is been living in the Dôjo for already two years. It finishes fixing itself and leaves towards the corridor to be with the woman who causes that his sins are more bearable…]

But then you came around me

The walls just disappeared

Nothing to surround me

And keep me from my fears

I'm unprotected

See how I've opened up

Oh, you've made me trust

[They stood there, watching each other at the eyes, trusting that happier times would come for the both of them. A smile settled in Kenshin's lips and slowly approached to a blushed Kaoru. There was something in her that made him feel calm, peacefully with himself... those deep ocean blue eyes made him feel pure…]

Because I've never felt like this before

I'm naked

Around you

Does it show?

You see right through me

And I can't hide

I'm naked

Around you

And it feels so right

[An inadvertent hand settled in Kenshin's left cheek; Kaoru's delicate fingers caressed the cross scar, causing Kenshin to feel a chill that ran through his back... how he liked to feel the delicate touch of the woman he loved. While both were lost in their glances, their memories went to the previous day and to the kiss they had shared…]

I'm trying to remember

Why I was afraid

To be myself and let the

Covers fall away

I guess I never had someone like you

To help me, to help me fit

In my skin

[The colors of the morning were reflected in their cheeks, the deep blue eyes of Kaoru penetrated in Kenshin's soul and he through them could see his own soul, a soul that now lacked the weight of the deaths that his hands and sword had caused all those years back. For her, it wasn't other thing that the soul of a man who had found peace and that was happy…]

I've never felt like this before

I'm naked

Around you

Does it show?

You see right through me

And I can't hide

I'm naked

Around you

And it feels so right

[While the minutes happen and the reddish tones of the morning are giving passage to the clarity of the blue sky and the air filled by the scent of the flowers, Kenshin and Kaoru seal their lips in a tender kiss and a promise floats in the morning, the promise of which their souls will be one and of which the love that today unites them... never will vanish…]

I'm naked

Oh oh yeah

Does it show?

Yeah, I'm naked

Oh oh, yeah yeah

I'm so naked around you

And I can't hide

You're gonna (you're gonna) see right through, baby

You're gonna see right through,

I'm so naked around you,

And i can't hide,

You're gonna see right through, baby

-End-

Wow my first songfic! ^_____^ I just can not believe it! I hope you like it and I'm sorry if is a little…pretentious, let's tell the truth XD

Now, the song is Avril Lavinge's Naked, as you all know, is really pretty and I think it describes very well the situation of our beloved Kenshin, don't you think? O__o?

Read it, enjoy it, and review, it will be accepted all kind of critic (not bomb letters, please ^_~); if you think I should change something, please let me know! ^o^ Ah! And one more thing, excuse my spelling…I'm not so good writing in English ^^'

Well that's all, thank for reading, see you all around!  Bye!
