What about Tae?

Author's notes: I hadn't planed on making this a serial, but hey if that's what the people want… *Starts to polish her nails on her shirt front.* Okay so I'm a little conceited, actually I'm just awed that anyone has read it. Enough rambling read it.





"What is it Yahiko? I want to finish chopping up these carrots so I can fix dinner. Then my Kenshin will be so impressed with my improved skills and get down on one knee and…," a blushing Kaoru trailed off as she brought her hands to cover part of her face.

"Hey! Kaoru, right now is not the time for this. Ugly! Pay attention!" A very annoyed Yahiko tried to get his senshi's attention.

"What did you just call ME?" Kaoru looked like she was about to kill Yahiko when Kenshin came in with Sano in tow.

"Kenshin, help me with Ugly. I need her to come with me to the Akabeko, because something is wrong with Tae."

Tae tried to stifle a giggle when she saw the embarrassed look on Kaoru's face. Kaoru thought she was trying to cover up her face, which was red from crying.

"Mou, Kenshin! I think it would be best if you let me handle things here." She waved her hand towards Tae to try and show him what she meant. Luckily for her Sano isn't as dense as Kenshin, he took the hint and took the 'Oroing' Rurouni back to the dojo.
