Disclaimers apply..Blah blah.. RK's not mine.. Hail the Great Watsuki- sama... I'm just a poor high school stud..... Don't sue me! ^_^
Kaori watched Kenji with delight and curiosity as his face contorted into many expressions. It was apparent that the guy was thinking, and whatever it is, it must be something big. His brows mounted up and down and his forehead crumpled but his beautiful violet orbs remained blank. Beautiful Kaori thought, Yes, beautiful is what he is. Beautiful in every way.. so kind, so caring. She didn't even know how she knew all of this after a day of meeting him, but still.. She smiled to herself and woke up her redhead from his little reverie.
"Kenji.." Kaori whispered softly.
Kenji looked up, a little perplexed and saw Kaori's blue eyes. "Na-nani?"
Kaori smiled, "You were daydreaming!" She giggled and continued to tease him. "What were you dreaming about? A beautiful lady? A princess?" She grinned and nudged him.
"Kaori, you know, I don't need to dream of beautiful ladies and princesses.." then he looked at her adoringly. "I already have one right beside me. And she's far more prettier than all the fair maidens there are!" Kenji looked away immediately, embarrassed that he had said those words to her.. but he meant them.
Kaori felt a hot blush creep up her neck and a tingling sensation on her spine. She looked down and waited for Kenji to speak again, which he did.
"Uh, Kaori-san.. can I ask you a question?" Kenji looked at her shyly.
"Of course, Kenji!" Kaori replied almost too readily, then regretted it afterwards Now he must think I'm too excited! Kaori thought worriedly. Never mind that, I mustn't look too eager.. gods, what is with me?! I'm used to being asked! It's simple! This time, I just say yes, instead of making up excuses! Kaori, it IS simple! Chill! her mind scolded.
Kenji didn't plan for this.. but it looked like a perfect opportunity to ask Kaori. He's been thinking about it since this morning, and he somehow couldn't get the perfect timing he needed. And now here it was. He just had to be calm. "Uh, our restaurant here in Tokyo is having it's grand opening tomorrow night.. and I, uh, I was wondering if you, uh, ummm." Kenji gulped What's with you man?! he berated himself You used to do this all the time back in Kyoto! Why should now be any different?! He coached himself. But Kaori is different from all the other girls you dated before! another voice in his mind countered.
"If I what, Kenji?" Kaori's sweet voice interrupted his thoughts. Now she must think you're a complete baka!
Kenji cleared his throat and continued.. without any improvement at all.
"If you, uh, wantedtogowithmeonadate?!" Kenji finished and looked down.
"What? I'm sorry I didn't hear you at all. You were talking so fast." Kaori bit her lip and smiled at Kenji. She heard it right, but she just wanted Kenji to say it again.. just to be sure she wasn't dreaming. Besides, he said it like he was on a race! "Could you say it again?"
Kenji cleared his throat for the umpteenth time and said "Gomen nasai Kaori- san.." he paused and continued "I said if you, uh, wanted to, uh, come with me to our opening as, uh, my, uh, date? Please say yes. Please say yes. Please say yes Kenji's mind chanted.
"Oh, I'd be glad to!" Kaori replied with a smile so sweet Kenji felt as if he could die right then and there.
He felt as if a ton of bricks had been lifted off his chest. see man? his mind said I told you it would be alright! Now breathe! Kenji wasn't aware that he'd been holding his breath for the last few seconds and grinned widely. "Really?! Oh, arigatou Kaori!" Kenji was so delighted, like a 4-year-old being offered lollies and ice cream. "I'll pick you up at around 6:30 tomorrow night."
Kaori smiled and nodded okay. She was feeling a little too excited to talk. "Okay, I better go now, I almost forgot I was expected at dinner!" Kenji informed Kaori with a laugh. "I'll see you tomorrow, okay?"
"Hai" Kaori replied with a grin.
Kenji was grinning like an idiot too, and he felt like a dolt. "Okay, ja! And tell your mom it was nice meeting her." Kenji bowed to Kaori and started to gather his backpack. Kaori led him to the door and said goodnight.
"Okaeri nasai Kenji!" then she waved goodbye to him. Kenji felt that he lust be the luckiest man in Tokyo.. no, maybe even the whole world! And he grinned to himself, silently thanking the gods for such a wonderful person like Kaori.
Kaori watched as Kenji drove away and smiled.. she went inside and without changing her clothes, she drifted into sleep. Dreams of the wanderer started floating in her mind once again.
Yay!! Chapter six is finished! Chapter six is finished! Actually, 10 chapters are already finished, but I'm too lazy to encode them!!
Making this was fun and I hope reading it would be fun too. ^_^
I hope this isn't turning out to be so heavy because I wanted it to be as light as possible.. all that talk about fate and destiny.. are they trash? Ummm, help me out please? ^^,
Kenshin is so definitely OOC here. I mean, who would've thought that our gentle and shy rurouni would be a playboy? A comitment-phobic? Who's first name was "Can't" and the last name was "Commit"? Gomen ne for doing this to him.. but believe me, it was fun seeing Kenshin at a whole new light! Gomen nasai!!
They were OOC.. gomen ne.. but this is the generation X.. kids today aren't kids yesterday. ^_*
