Disclaimer: I don't own Rurouni Kenshin
Kaoru tugged at her white dress and looked at herself in the mirror. Gorgeous. She smiled at the thought of Kenshin, looking handsome in his tuxedo. Misao walked in, her hair in an updo and her tomboyish figure hid underneath a sexy white dress.
"This is going to be a great wedding," Misao said, tugging at her dress. Kaoru nodded as she applied her lip gloss. Misao giggled, "Imagine what it's going to be like married to Himura!" Kaoru smiled at the thought, "Yes that would be nice. Too bad it's not gonna happen, yet." Misao patted her back, "In two weeks, maybe. Let's go, we have to help Tomoe-san get ready for her wedding. By the way, this dress is godly uncomfortable." She grabbed Kaoru by the hand and headed downstairs to the car.
"Ne, are we going to Kenshin's place?" Kaoru asked Misao. Misao shook her head, "No time. We're already late. Tomoe would be furious if we headed off there now." Kaoru nodded as she leaned back. Today was the day that Tomoe was getting married to Pierre, a French man Tomoe met in France during her stay there. She invited the gang and even made Kaoru her maid of honor. She wondered why, since they weren't such good friends. She smiled as she remembered what Tomoe said, "Well, technically my best friend is Kenshin. But since he's a man, I'd have to go with the next best thing. His girlfriend!" Misao, Megumi, Tae and Tsubame (Soujirou's sisters) were the bridesmaids as well.
She blushed at the sound of it. Kenshin's girlfriend. She liked that. She's been carrying the title for nearly a year now, and nearly thought that she would never get it because of Tomoe. Who knew that she would make all of this happen? The car stopped infront of the church, where the steps were decorated with hundreds of white roses. Well, if you're gonna be the daughter of a rich man, why don't you throw your wedding in a grand way?
Kaoru opened the trunk as Misao grabbed a bag containing Tomoe's wedding dress, veil and shoes. Kaoru grabbed a box containing Tomoe's wedding bouquet consisting of, obviously, white roses and whit lilies. She and Misao climbed up to a compartment in the church, and found that it was hard to hurry with high heels on and some luggage to juggle to boot. Misao opened the door and found Tomoe sitting on a chair infront of the dresser, with a hairstylist combing her hair. Kaoru held her breath, she was beautiful, even with no make-up on. Her hair was limp and wet, making Misao frown.
"Tomoe-san, did you really have to wet your hair?" Misao said, grabbing a blow-dryer. Kaoru chuckled as they helped the hairstylist and the makeup artists themselves. After half an hour of freshening up, everyone in the room smiled at the radiant Tomoe. Misao shouted, "Alright everyone, let's get into gear and get this wedding started!" Everyone shuffled out of the room, but before Kaoru could go, Tomoe called for her.
"Yes, Tomoe-san?" she asked, tucking a strand behind her ear. Tomoe smiled, "I just want to say that the next wedding I want to attend to is yours and Kenshin's. You've made him really happy. You've opened him up. You've showed him life, love and everything wonderful in it. I've never seen him so alive. Arigatou. Demo, I have to say sorry on his behalf because he's so shy with his feelings and affections. You are, after all, his first girlfriend. I hope you get my bouquet later on."
Kaoru blushed at the comment of Kenshin's behaviour towards her. He had problems showing his affections public, but he was opening up. Kaoru nodded and kissed Tomoe's cheek, "I'll see you downstairs. Good luck."
When she got down, she saw Kenshin and Sano talking at the back of the church. She smiled at Kenshin, who smiled back, making her heart flutter. Kenshin walked over to her and gave her a quick kiss on the lips, surprising Kaoru. "What was that for?" "Luck. Anyway, you're so pretty I couldn't help myself." Kaoru laughed, "I have to go now, Misao is already walking. I'll see you afterwards."
The wedding went on smoothly and soon everyone was at the reunion dinner (is that it? I can't remember the damn word.shit..writer's block). Kaoru was awed at Tomoe. She was so elegant and graceful, dancing with Pierre with a glow. She wondered why Kenshin chose her over Tomoe. She shook her head, she shouldn't even think of such things. When it came to the bouquet toss, every single woman in the party was there, all lined up and excited. Except for Misao.
"It's not like Aoshi will propose any time soon," she grunted, rolling her eyes. Kaoru laughed at her friend's behaviour when there was a sudden commotion. Tomoe had tossed the bouquet and without her knowing it, the bouquet was in Kaoru's hands. She laughed as she waved it around. She looked at Kenshin whose face was crimson, from all the pats that Sano, Aoshi and Soujirou were giving him. Their eyes suddenly met, and she was surprised to see love and hope in them instead of embarrassment and fear (of commitment). She smiled as she waved at him.
Then the dancing came on and soon she was swept up in Kenshin's arms. Kaoru placed her head on his shoulders, "Kenshin, are you sad?" Kenshin chuckled, "Why should I be?" "You're not the one she married." "Kaoru," He said, lifting her chin to look at her, "I chose you, that I did. Not her. And I'm still happy. I'm glad she married him and not me so you can have me all to yourself." Kaoru laughed and placed her lips on his. As they broke apart, there was a mischevious look on Kenshin. Kaoru tilted her head, "Nani?" The music had stopped. Everyone stopped dancing, even Tomoe and Pierre and they all looked at the couple.
"What's going on?" Kaoru asked as she looked around. Everyone was smiling, even Aoshi, who didn't smile often. She looked back at Kenshin, who was now on his knees, holding a small velvet box. Her eyes widened in surprise.
"K-Kenshin? What's going on?" Kaoru stammered. Kenshin took a deep breath, "Kamiya Kaoru, as this wedding ends, I hope another one will begin. I love you and I always will. I hope you feel the same and do me the honour of marrying me. Kaoru, will you please be my wife?" Kaoru touched his scarred cheek as tears rolled down her cheeks and slowly nodded, "Hai. I will. I will!"
The crowd applauded, with whoops from Sano and Misao. Megumi shouted, "What are you waiting for, kiss him!" Kaoru did just that and kissed her fiancé. At that exact moment, a flower of fire blossomed in the sky, making everyone ooh and ah at it. Kenshin and Kaoru looked up and smiled. Just then a shooting star flashed by, catching Kenshin's attention, "Koishii, look! A shooting star, make a wish."
Kaoru wiped the tears of her face and cuddled closer to Kenshin, "Why? Kami-sama already made it come true. Aishiteru, Kenshin." Kenshin smiled, "Aishiteru, Kaoru." With that, they kissed, as fireworks lit up the sky.
