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! ^_^

Wearing blindfolds in the car, Kaori didn't really know where they were going. But she really trusted Kenji and she felt that he won't do anything to harm her or bring her to some cheap motel. Lord no! she thought. Instead, she was feeling anxious and very excited. The car suddenly stopped to a halt and Kaori felt her stomach do flip-flops. They were already there! She couldn't wait to see what kind of place this was.

The car stopped to a halt and she felt Kenji get out and rush to open the door for her. Kenji opened her door. "Now take my hands and trust me to guide you there, okay?" Kaori held out her hands "Okay." After a few awkward and uneasy baby steps to which Kaori doesn't know where to headed, Kenji stopped and turned Kaori around. He took off her blindfolds and asked her to open her eyes only when he says so. "Okay, 1,2,3.. now open your eyes." Kaori slowly opened her eyes and looked around. They were in a cliff covered with grass and wild flowers were abloom everywhere. They were overlooking the city and it's millions of lights sparkled under the star-filled sky. In the middle was an old 18th century style gazebo with its paint chipping off. Kaori gaped at the sight before her and felt a surge of happiness and peace. "This is awesome!" She whispered to Kenji, her blue eyes twinkling with excitement and pure joy. "It's so peaceful, and so beautiful up here. I feel like I'm a bird, so free." Kaori spread out her arms and inhaled the fresh scent of dew. "Not as beautiful as you are Kaori." Kenji looked at her blue eyes, letting himself drown into them. "You are the picture of perfection. I have never in my life seen anyone as immaculate as you are. You simply take my breath away, Kaori." Kaori blushed "Arigatou." They walked silently hand in hand towards the gazebo. When they finally sat down, Kaori broke the silence. "Do you believe in fate Kenji?" Kaori looked down and waited for his answer. "I never thought that fate had anything to do with my life before. That it was just some old belief that was obsolete in our modern times. But, Kaori, when I saw you, I knew it was fate." Kenji looked thoughtful staring above, as if debating whether to say more or not. When Kaori saw that Kenji didn't want to say more, she spoke again. Looking at him from the side of her eyes she began. "I felt that too! It's like a sudden jolt of electricity pass through my body that chilled my spine and turned my insides to jelly. I couldn't breathe. I couldn't even move. I stood rooted to my spot." Kaori paused "I felt that I've known you forever and that I lo-" then she stopped, realizing she almost used the word `love' and looked away. "I have these dreams." Kenji faced her again, his eyes filled with confusion and need. "Dreams of the Meiji era.. a swordsman who looks like me.. a girl who looks like you.. " Kaori's eyes widened with surprise and amusement. "You have those dreams too?!" Kenji nodded, confused at Kaori's question. "You see, Kenji, I am having those dreams for quite a while now. I felt a great connection between me and the girl. Me and the redhead. I cry when she cries. I hurt when she hurts. I feel love for the rurouni. Why is that Kenji? Why are we having dreams like these?" Kaori felt vulnerable and scared, and relieved at the same time, that someone was sharing her confusion, her experience. "I think it may be possible that that was our past life." Kenji explained, but the look in his eyes showed that he couldn't believe it himself. "I think we had something unfinished in our past life, and that Kami is giving us another chance to do it right this time." Kenji smiled and took Kaori in his arms. "I think that's a good theory Kenji." She murmured happily. Ten she looked into his eyes. "It's going to work this time Kenji, I just know it will." Kenji held Kaori and kissed her softly inhaling her subtle jasmine scent. Kaori whispered in his ear, "Are you sure about this Kenji?" Kenji held her face in his hands, his violet pools overflowing with love. "Hai Kaori. I have never been so sure of anything in my whole life." He assured Kaori, never taking his eyes off her shining eyes. "Aishiteru Kaori.. Aishiteru… Itsumo."
