I finished chapter eight! Yay! Sorry had too much coffee lol. Anyway just
enjoy it, I don't have a lot to say, sorry. Rurouni Kenshin doesn't belong
to me as do any of the others, though I wished they did. Don't sue me, I'm
poor! Remember, this is for entertainment only and is not meant to be
offensive in any way! Just enjoy it ne? It'll be short though so sorry.
For Waterflash, heck the whole story is. I just hope she likes it, it was her birthday! ^_^ Sorry for embarrassing you if I did, just think of this story as your present and as thanks for always supporting me, you're a real friend!
Chapter eight: It's worth it all
"I'm still nervous,'' Kaoru contemplated. "What will he say?" Misao gave her a reassuring smile. "Trust me ne? Himura is gonna be happy to see you, I know it!" Kaoru gave her a grateful smile. "Arigatou, I'm just a little nervous is all." 'I wonder what Kenshin will say, it kinda scares me. What if he doesn't want to be around me anymore?' "I should probably just go Misao. Besides, I still have to take care of Yashiitomo. It would be best I do this sooner than later."
"Do you honestly think that's wise?" Misao asked doubtfully. "You still have some pretty serious wounds there. Aoshi said it was a wonder how you could've survived, even though we now know the reason," she said pointing out her eyes which revealed the demon side of her. Come to think of it Misao did have a point. After all, she still wasn't fully recovered. "I suppose I should hang around for a while," Kaoru surrendered. 'I couldn't hurt could it?' Misao heard Aoshi step in.
"Misao, don't you remember?" he asked smiling. Misao jumped up. "Oh yeah! Suman Aoshi! Kaoru-chan do you think you will be okay for awhile?" she asked. By the look on her face, Kaoru didn't need to ask what they were up to. She knew. "Hai, enjoy yourselves." Seeing as they left Kaoru sighed and walked out to the back of the house where there was a grass clearing. 'I wonder what Kenshin is doing.' Suddenly she heard a voice.
"Oro? No one's here." Kaoru stiffened. 'Kenshin...' This was it. She readied herself and step from behind the house and she heard Kenshin gasp. She looked directly at him and smiled. "Hi Kenshin," she said facing him. Kenshin made a mad dash for her. "Kaoru!" Kenshin pulled her into an embrace and hugged her hard. "I missed you...where'd you go? I was so worried..." Kaoru could feel tears dripping off onto her neck. "I'm sorry, but I'm happy to see you." She felt Kenshin pull away and look her in the eyes.
"You...you can see me?" he asked hopefully. Kaoru gave him a smile. "Hai, I can. I'm glad I can see you again." Kenshin hugged her again. Maybe too hard. "Ow..."
"Kaoru? Are you okay?" he asked worriedly. "Did I hurt you?" Kaoru gave him a smile. "Iie, just some old injuries." That's when Kenshin noticed Kaoru's red eyes. "Kaoru...your eyes, why are they red?" Kaoru cast her head down. 'It's time...' Kaoru looked up at him again. "Let's go inside and I will explain that," she said quietly going in followed by a confused and concerned Kenshin. When they were both sitting in the living room she locked eyes with him again.
"I suppose I should explain what's going on with me," she started. "What do you mean?" Kenshin asked dumbfounded by her statement. Kaoru folded her hands together nervously. "Kenshin, why do you put up with me?" Kenshin looked confused. "What do you mean?"
"I'm dangerous to be around, and I could hurt you. I don't understand why you deal with that. I'm not worth it," she continued. Kenshin rested a hand on both of hers. "What are you talking about? Being with you isn't a burden to me, I love being with you because I love you." Kaoru smiled. "I love you too. And it was because of that that I kept pushing you away. I didn't want you to get hurt because of me." Kenshin pulled her onto his lap. "Don't...I want to be there with you especially when you are in danger...because I want to protect you..." Kaoru could feel his hold tighten.
"Do you really want to be around a monster like me?" she asked. Kenshin turned her face to look at him. "You aren't a monster, why do you say that?" Kaoru touched his face. "Kenshin, I'm not completely human," she told him her red eyes glistening. "What?" Kenshin queried. Kaoru cast her head down once again. "My eyes changed because of the demon blood I have in me. There are people every once in a great while that have traces in their blood stream. If I were to lose control and let that arise, you could get hurt," Kaoru said tears falling. "I don't want to hurt you...I didn't think you would want to be around me because of that. I'm not worth it." Kenshin once again pulled her into a tight hug and pressed his lips on hers gently. "That doesn't matter, it's worth it. It's worth it all. I still love you and I always will. No matter what I will always stay by your side..." When Kenshin kissed her, Kaoru knew he meant it. And she kissed him back in response.
