Disclaimer: I do not, underline not, own Rurouni Kenshin. Happy?
Hey, thanks for the reviews! Oh, tell me what I should work on in the lemon!, I don't think I did it quite right. It was my second one. I'm tired of talking, so on with the story! Oh and Battousai's thoughts will be between ~ okay?

Kaoru woke up the next morning in her futon with her yukata on. She glanced around to she if Kenshin was there and praying that last night wasn't a dream. She felt the back of her clothing and felt that the not in the back was tied in a way that she never tied it. She let out a sigh of relief and walked into the kitchen where the red head was fixing breakfast.
Kenshin felt her aura present and turned around to see her bright ocean eyes. He stepped away from the food that he was preparing and embraced her waist.
Leaning his forehead on hers, he asked, "Did you sleep well love?"
"You know I did," she replied, slapping him on the arm playfully. She looked up and stared into his violet eyes and felt her eyes beginning to close. Kenshin leaned foreward also closing his eyes, anticipating a kiss too.
They were so close, could feel each others breath against their lips. Then. . .
"ALRIGHT! SMELLS GOOD IN HERE! WHAT'S FOR BREAKFAST KENSHIN?" Yahiko's annoying little voice broke the romantic scene. Kenshin and Kaoru feel over anime style and thought the same thing. * Damn you Yahiko!*
Yahiko stopped and looked up. "Did I interrupt something?" he asked with a childish gleam in his eyes. Kenshin and Kaoru looked at him like he was an idiot. Then Yahiko signaled to Kenshin's hands which were still connected to Kaoru's hips. Kenshin quickly removed them and looked away, turning red. Kaoru looked away from Yahiko and Kenshin.
"OOOOOOOH! NOW I know what you two were doing last night! Kenshin and Busu, sit'n in a tree! K-I-S-S-I-N-G!" Yahiko sang, prancing around the room
"Shut up Yahiko! That will be 200 strikes!" Kaoru yelled, throwing a bowl of rice at him. He dodged and in stead of hitting him, it hit our favorite freeloader, Sano.
"I wanted to grab some food, but this isn't what I had in mind. . ." He said, looking up at his forehead.
"Oh, Sano, I'm so sorry!" Kaoru apologized quickly.
"So am I. Kenshin burned breakfast. . ." Sano said, smelling smoke.
"ORO!" Kenshin yelled and ran back I the kitchen. A big boom was heard and then the red head came back out of the kitchen swirly-eyed. Only his hair wasn't red. It was black, darker than Kaoru's or Megumi's.
"Well, I guess we'll be going out to the Akebeko, that we will!" Kenshin said, stumbling here and there before collapsing in his room.
"Fine, I'll go change." Kaoru said and headed for her room.
She was really anticipating Kenshin's breakfast. For once, she actually didn't want to eat out. Kaoru would rather stay home with him. So she decided to make the best of this occasion.
Now, what to wear. . . * she thought peering into her closest. Flipping through, she through out the lavender kimono, her green kimono and her yellow one. She stopped at a red one with flowers on it. It had a beautiful blue lining and the flowers were silver on the edge, green on the inside. Toss.
Geez, there nothing in here good to wear. . . Oh, what's this?* came her thoughts as she passed by a lovely baby blue kimono. Silver flowers flew over it and gave it a wedding kimono sort of look.
*Perfect. Now for the obi. * Picking up a blue obi, Kaoru was
satisfied. She slowly slipped into it and tied her obi. Taking out a
brush, Kaoru began to pull it back into a ponytail but stopped. She
let it go, so it cascaded down her back. Liking it, she took her hair
and pulled to strands in front of her face.
*This is good, but something's missing. . . But what? * Glancing
around the room in hopes of finding it, she did. Running over to a
flower vase, she picked the half grown blue flower bud and tucked it
into her hair. She smiled nonchalantly and brushed her hair a little
more.

"Why do girls have to take a life time getting ready? We're going to the akebeko for crying out loud! It's not like she's getting married!" a very impatient, annoyed Yahiko said. His stomach growled in agreement. An even louder growl was heard from Sano's stomach.
"I don't like agreeing with the brat, but for once his right. Kaoru's over doing it this tie. It's been 20 minutes!" Sano whined. Yahiko would've gnawed his head, but his stomach hurt too much to even try to make the effort.
I must agree that Kaoru is taking a long time. I hope she's okay. What if she broke a vase and cut her foot and can't walk? What if she's not feeling well? What if- * Kenshin's thoughts broke as the door opened and out stepped Kaoru. Kenshin just stared. The way her hair fell down her back, how the kimono and the obi brought out the magic in her eyes, the flower in her hair. . . ~ She's HOT!~ Battousai thought then shook his head. * Shut up Battousai!* Kenshin thought angrily.
~Nice one Kenny boy. She's definitely a keeper~ came the hitokiri's thoughts. * Kaoru is not to be thought of in that manner. *Kenshin told the man slayer mentally. ~Then why do you do it all the time?~
"Kenshin! Hurry up, I'm hungry!" Sano's voice broke into his thoughts. Kenshin turned around to see everyone walking in the direction of the restaraunt.
"ORO! WAIT!" he cried, hurrying to catch up with the group. He skidded to a stop next to Kaoru and began to walk like a normal person again.
-
"Welcome back! It's been so long since you've visited us!" Tae greeted them.
"Hello Yahiko. . ." Tsubame said shyly, hiding her face behind the plate she had in her tiny little hands.
"Uh . . . hi . . ." Yahiko replied in a quiet voice and looked down at the floor, his face turning red. Sano had a chance to mess with his head. He would've to if Yahiko and Tsubame weren't so shy around each other. Sure picking on Yahiko was fun to pick on but he didn't like to do it in front of his girlfriend, so he backed off.
"Tsubame, why don't you show them their seats. I've got some rice boiling in the back." Tae said, smiling down at the young waitress.
She looked up and nodded. She signaled for them to follow. Turning back to the group, she asked, " Where's Megumi? I haven't seen her much either."
"Sano, do YOU know where she is?" Yahiko asked with a wide grin on his face. Sano merely walked past him but didn't leave without landing a blow on his head. Kaoru and Tsubame let out girlish giggles while Kenshin smiled his rurouni smile.
The group sat down, while Tae brought them the usual. Beef stew.(A/N don't they ever get sick of that stuff?)
"Oh dear," Kaoru said after they finished their meal, "who's going to pay for this?"
Kaoru looked at Sano who looked at Kenshin who looked at Yahiko who looked back at Kaoru.
"I'm broke!" said Sano.
"I'm a kid, your supposed to be paying for ME to eat!" Yahiko exclaimed.
"I the woman! The mans supposed to pay for the meal!" Kaoru defended herself.
They all stopped and slowly turned to Kenshin, who went wide-eyed.
"Oro, don't look at me! I'm just a penny-less wanderer, that I am!" Kenshin said.
"Oh please, that was years ago!" Sano said.
"Yeah, really! Besides, you're the oldest!" Yahiko chimed in.
"We all have paid for it before!" Kaoru said.
"YOURE PAYIN'!" they all yelled in usion.
"ORO!" Kenshin said, out numbered.
Tae let out a soft giggle and said, " That's alright. It's on the house."
"Oh, thankyouthankyouthankyouthankyouthankyou!" Kenshin praised Tae. They let out a sigh of relief when Tae came to their rescue.
"I'll be right back," Kaoru said, holding her stomach.
"What is it Kaoru?" Kenshin asked worriedly.
"Oh, it's. . . it's nothing. Just not feeling well. Going to go get a glass of water," Kaoru squeaked, hobbling towards the kitchen. Kenshin would've followed but Sano held him back. He knew why to. He couldn't just follow her around all the time like a sick puppy. So he stayed put like a good boy, watching Kaoru walk by.
_
"Well, that made me feel a tinsy bit better," Kaoru said aloud. She walked outside and peered up at the sky. * It sure is beautiful today* she thought, as the cool breeze blew her hair. Then she felt a hand on her shoulder.

Tee hee, I know. I'm so vile! You'll have to wait to see who it is. Until next time!
