What the Hell is Going On!

Author's Notes: Uhm, hi. I know my last chapter was kinda late cause I forget to upload it. (Me stupid. ^_^;;) Anyway, some of you have been itching for the lemony part of this fanfic. Well, sorry to tell you, it won't be for another five chapters or so!!!!!! Ok, I've done my daily ranting for the day. And here is the fourth chapter of my fanfic!!!! Whoooo! (Crickets chirping in the background) Okay, so no one likes my fic? That's so sad. T_T

Chapter 4: About Time You Came to Face Me You Coward!!!

~~~Previous chapter

'Yes, baka-deshi will get such a beating.' thought Hiko maliciously. "It's alright, Kaoru-chan, I will make sure my baka-deshi will get a beating when he gets home, ok?" Hiko said reassuringly as he draped his arms over Kaoru's shoulders. Kaoru took this as a permission to cry her eyes out and she did.

~~~Chapter 4

Soujiro and Misao got out of their seats and motioned over to Kaoru. Hiko let go of Kaoru and went to the closet to get a box of tissues. This time, Soujiro wrapped his arms around Kaoru and gently rocked her back and forth.

"It's ok," he said softly," Cry all you want. It helps get the sadness out." He looked at her with kind eyes.

Misao immediately noticed the way Soujiro was looking at Kaoru and hatched a naughty plan in her mind. 'When Kaoru gets over Kenshin,' she thought,' I'll practice my matchmaking skills and perform the oh-so-classic-blanket- scenario. Brilliant, Misao. Brilliant. After that, Kaoru will forget she ever met Kenshin in the first place. Oh, you're good.' "It's ok, Kaoru," Misao said sympathetically," I'm here for you." 'And Sou-chan is too,' she added silently.

When Hiko walked out of the closet, the bell immediately rang. Everybody got up, including Kaoru, and packed their stuff to go to their next class.

As Kaoru, Soujiro, and Misao walked out of the classroom, Hiko said," Take care of yourself, Kaoru-chan, and don't worry. Baka-deshi will learn his lesson the moment he steps into the house, k?" He waved a small wave toward her direction. Kaoru turned around and waved an even smaller wave back.

"Ah," she said happily," arigato, otou-san. I'll take care of myself. Kirei * will always protect me."

(Author's Notes: I will tell you who the hell Kirei is in later chapters. P.S. It has something to do with Kaoru being bi-polar. Wink, wink)

"Now, let's go to our classes!" Kaoru said cheerfully. A smile brightened her face.

Misao thought aloud," But what of Soujiro? He's new here and so he has to find his classes alone. You're not going to leave poor Soujiro out here to fend for himself, are you? What?! You are?! Kaoru-chan, you're so cruel. Some friend you are!" Misao frowned and her eyes seemed impossibly glossy and a giant rain cloud "from the 5th dimension" suddenly appeared behind her.

"I'm not abandoning, Sou-chan," Kaoru said happily," Besides, we both have the same exact classes. See?" Then she handed Misao Soujiro's class schedule. It read:

Homeroom

Room #904 Seijuro Hiko

Period 1

Room #303 Shigure Toki Drama

Period 2

Room #Gym Makoto Shishio Physical Education/ Kendo

Period 3

Room #509 Shigure Takimi Ancient Civilizations/ Social Studies

Period 4

Room #ODL* Hajime Saito Marine Science

(ODL is a class near the school garden. Since it was away from the rest of the classrooms, it was called ODL instead of a number. (Actually, I have no idea why they call it ODL. LoL! ^_^;;)

Period 5

Room #301 Seijuro Hiko Math/ Algebra

Period 6

Room #408 Makimachi Okina English/ Language Arts

(Some of you might find Soujiro's schedule seemingly familiar. (Ahem. sessha. ahem) Well, that is because that is my present schedule. All the room numbers and subjects, except kendo and algebra, are based on my schedule. For those of you that wonder why I don't have algebra, well, it's a secret. (I'm only in 6th grade. Please don't tell. I like my place here in fanfiction.net and I enjoy reading and typing fanfics. I know it's really creepy that a 6th grader like me has such a dirty mind. Tsk, tsk. Shame on me.) Anyway, you could just all forget about what you just read and get on with the story. Hehehe. (I'm hopeless.) Here is the story!!!)

"Oh, I see now," Misao said, then she turned to Soujiro," You are sooo lucky! You have all of Kaoru-chan's classes! I only have her for homeroom and period 1. Could I switch with you?" Misao had a pleading look on her face.

"Eh, sorry, Misao-chan," Soujiro said waving his hand apologetically," I want to be in all of Kaoru-chan's classes too. That way, I could have someone to show me around." He beamed at Kaoru.

"Well," Misao pondered," How about after Kaoru-chan shows you all around the school and you finally know your way, we could switch classes? How about we switch schedule then?"

"Iie," Soujiro answered," I prefer to be with Kaoru-chan all the time so I wouldn't feel so alone." He smiled warmly at her and Kaoru blushed faintly. Misao immediately noticed and grabbed a handy, dandy notebook* "from the 5th dimension" and took notes on what was going on quickly.

(In case you were wondering, I got the phrase "handy, dandy notebook" from Blues Clues. Blue is sooo cute (but not as cute as Soujiro) and I love that show!!!! Yeah, I know. Me weird. ^_^;;)

Then the five-minute bell rung. "Oh my gosh!" Kaoru exclaimed," We're going to be late for class dammit! Let's go! Move your ass will you, Misao-chan?! Oh, hey! Wait for us Soujiro! You're too fast!"

(Kaoru reminds me of me and Misao reminds me of my best friend Vanda. She is only in my homeroom and 1st period. I always ran to 1st period and Vanda would sometimes have to catch up. I have no idea who Soujiro reminds me of. There are no guys as nice as him, they're all just plain creepy.)

Then, Kaoru's group finally reached their 1st period. Mrs. Shigure greeted," Welcome! It is so nice to see you girls early today. Ah, and you must be the new student," pointing a finger in Soujiro's direction," Welcome to our school. I hope you have found friendship with these girls." Soujiro nodded slowly then looked at Kaoru and Misao. They smiled warmly at him and Soujiro nodded with a smile on his face this time. "Ah, well, that's good," she then whispered into his ear," I hope you will be the one to take Kenshin off of Kaoru-chan's mind." Soujiro nodded quickly and blushed as he took a seat next to Kaoru. Misao sat across of the room from Kaoru. After Soujiro had seated Mrs. Shigure told him quietly that only he would hear, but Misao heard it too and took notes in her handy, dandy notebook," Good luck with sweeping Kaoru off her feet." Then she winked teasingly at him. Misao was instantly extremely interested when she heard what Mrs. Shigure said.

Then she raised her hand. "Toki-chan* may I speak with you for a brief moment onegai?"

(Every one of her students calls her Toki-chan because she told them too. She explained that when someone calls her Shigure-sensei, Shigure-san, or Toki-sensei it makes her feel old.)

"Yes, you may, Misao-chan," replied Toki," After class, daijoubu?" Misao looked a little disappointed, but she agreed anyway. "Ok, after class then," Toki said, flashing her petite smile on her face.

Then, Toki's T.A. (teacher's assistant) came in the room. His red hair and violet eyes seems familiar to Kaoru and the she gasped.

Author's Note: Wow, gosh. This is my longest chapter yet!! I guess my parents didn't really stop me from continuing my story. But wait till report cards come up. (shudder) I won't think about that for now. I'll just spend as much time on the comp as possible. Eh, about the part of the Kenshin head bashing part, well, I forgot, so sorry. I'm just up to my fullest today. (As you could easily see.) I'm in full sleepy freak mode right now. If you want to know what the heck I'm talking about then just look at my bio. Anyway, here's the response to my dearest of reviewers:

Harry Potter: Well, glad you like my story. And, here, I mentioned your name on my fanfic. I don't know why but I just like it when the author takes the time to type your name on their fic. And what's with the "yaho" line? (sounds like your jumping off a cliff or something.)

Female Hitokiri Battousai: Yeah, I know what you mean. School and your life outside the Internet. Yeah, they could get real tough on your fic and other Internet stuff. And whose silver thunder? Sorry, but I have a really slow mind at the moment. T_T;;

Crazy4animegirl: Yes you are crazy. And I am really happy that you are one of the few people that realize that the fate of this story rests in my hands and I am the one going through all the trouble to type this story for the people who do like these kinds of stories.

LilkOkO: Yeah, I know. I really like big, tough guys who are really nice. I just wish they were the ones at my school and not the creepy ones. T.T

Existence: Wow, thank you so much for thinking my story is cool. Ya see that, Sageryan25?! Somebody likes my story! Ha! Take that! Kiss my ass! In your face ya fool! Oh, whoops. Got a little carried away there.

Soujiro/Kaoru fanatic: Blue meets blue. Hmmm, I forgot where I got that. Oh yeah. I got it from the story Anata No Tame Ni. I think the author was chibi-angel3. I have no idea. Yeah, I know!!!! Sou/Kao lemon fics are sooo rare to find that I decided to make one myself.

Starcoaster36: Yep, I must be the first Sou/Kao lemon author eva.
