"Don't go around killing him or you need to find another partner for the Boston trip… Wakatta?" Misao playfully warned Kaoru.
"Hai Hai… Misao sama… Megumi sama." She laughed along with them as they walked further away from her.
'Haiz… Misao and Megumi are really nice to me… I really owe them… if it wasn't for them… I guess there won't be any legend about a lady Hitokiri named Hitokiri Kageyuki'. What a life saver.' Kaoru thought and smiled at it as she slowly drifted of to what happen to her and who were the angels who saved her.
Just than someone patted her shoulders which brought her back to reality. She turned around to find out that, there he was. Her temporary partner for this mission and maybe her sworn enemy or something else even she herself wasn't sure about it.
*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*
"What were you thinking about Kaoru san?" Kenshin's amethyst gaze look deep into the blue ones which look so distanced away. Kaoru was shocked as she had never seen Kenshin's amethyst eyes before. She was sure it was amber.
"Kenshin san… your eye's colour… wasn't it gold in colour… I remembered it was the first time we met." Kaoru asked in curiosity.
"Oohh… that… well to tell you the truth, I don't know much about it… If I get too worked up… my eyes tend to change from purple to gold. My original eye colour is purple." Kenshin answered her answer swiftly.
"I see…" Were the only words that came out of Kaoru's mouth as she was amazed by the colour changing.
"So… what did you wanna talk about?"
"Erm… Maybe you would like to go to some other places as your friends there…" Kaoru pointed her finger behind Kenshin.
"Doesn't seem to understand the word… 'ALONE'. Come let's go to the garden." She turned around and started walking.
Kenshin turned his head and glared at his friends. He gave them a 'you-are- going-to-get-it-from-me-later' look. Aoshi and Sanosuke gulped. As they would be out of their mind if they wanted to piss off the legend. After giving them the warning he turned around and followed Kaoru.
"What a stare…" Sanosuke mumbled to Aoshi. Aoshi could not disagree with him at all… as they know what would be the consequences of provoking the Battousai.
********
At the Garden
Kaoru knelt in front of the flowers and smelt them.
'This… this smell… it reminds me of things I do not want to know… things I never want to know.'
"Beautiful flowers aren't they. Being an assassin like us can hardly see such a peaceful scene, na Kaoru san?" Kenshin looked at Kaoru's lithe figure, which was knelt in front of him.
'Humph… you call this peaceful…' Kaoru thought. As she took a deep breath and wore back her usual 'mask'.
"Oh yes… I missed them. I always liked flowers." Kaoru finished of the lie curtly and look towards the sunset.
'I lied… I actually lied to him… Wait a sec! Who gives a damn about him, so what if I actually lied to him? Kamiya Kaoru… needs nobody in her life. I trust no one but me myself. I've been living like this ever since that incident. I don't need anyone."
"Oh yes… Kenshin about the injury on your left cheek how is it?" Kaoru asked Kenshin while her eyes still fixed on the scene of the sunset.
Kenshin turned his head towards Kaoru.
'She seems so far off. I wonder what is she thinking about. She seems so pissed off when I told her about the flowers. I wonder does that gotta do with anything with her past.'
"Well the injury is healing but it seems that it will not leave without signing off with a scar." Kenshin looked at Kaoru, who looked back at him. At that single moment, their eyes locked towards each other. Neither of them could tear their gaze away from each other. Kaoru than started to walk forward towards Kenshin
'Why am I feeling this?? Why am I EVEN walking towards him?? I can't even tear my gaze away from him.'
By now they were about 1 cm away from each other. Both of their eyes never left each other.
'Hmmm… close up I think Battousai looks a bit sexy… SEXY?? Wait… Kaoru… when have you been so DESPERATE… keep cool… breathe… Kaoru breathe… remember… love can never last… only causes pain… never last… only causes hurt and pain… never last, hurt and pain… never last…' with that Kaoru step back.
"Well… I very sorry… if I'm not wrong it would be a cross-shape scar." Kaoru finished off while her brain kept on repeating the words 'never last, hurt and pain'.
"I just get really pis…" Kaoru was being silent by Kenshin as he put a finger on her lips.
'You talk too much for an assassin." Kenshin lips curved up into a feral smile, which shocked Kaoru. Unsatisfied by his warning, she argued back.
"What do you mean 'talk too…" She was being silent again by Kenshin again. But this time he had his lips locked onto hers.
'WHAT THE HELL!!!' Kaoru thought. Although her mind refused the kiss a millionth time, her body refuses to listen. She started to return the kiss as she encircled her hands around Kenshin's neck.
Kenshin reached out to her waist and placed his hands at her hip as he pulled her towards her. They deepen their kiss. Both of them gave in to the passionate kiss. That was until…
"RRIINNGG" Kaoru's cell phone rang.
They broke their kiss. Kaoru quickly turned around and reached into her pocket at her skirt and pulled out her cell phone.
The screen read: MISAO.
Kaoru sigh as she pushed the button to answer her call.
'Just when I was enjoying myself, the 'great' Misao has to interrupt.'
"YES!! Misao… How can I HELP you?" Answered a rather fuming Kaoru.
Kenshin himself was annoyed at the person called Misao for calling. He was enjoying himself and the best part of the kiss was Kaoru was actually returning it.
'Dammit… just when I had the time of my life in 25 years someone had to interrupt it.'
"You don't have to shout Kaoru. Well, I was just about to tell you that Megumi wants to see you about this Boston trip." Misao said in also an annoyed voice as she was being shouted at.
"Okok… Sorry about shouting… I'll be up in a moment ok."
"You better be… This problem concerns the three of us and the guys."
"Ok… ok I got your point already."
"I expect you to be up in 3 seconds"
"Who do you think I am?"
"Well, don't you give me the crap that you can't run faster than a spot car!"
"You expect me to use that technique? Katsura sama is going to kill me for the renovation fees!"
"Ok… Just get up here as fast as possible… bye"
"Bye!" And they both hang up.
Kaoru turned around to find an irritated Kenshin with his hand cross over his chest while tapping his foot.
"Finished?" Kenshin asked while he arched his brows.
"Yar… but I gotta rush up, it seems that they have a big problem. Well… I gotta go then. Bye…" Kaoru turned at walked towards the entrance where they had walked in. Than suddenly a strong firm hold grip her hand as she was being pulled towards some one. Her face hit some one's chest.
"This is my Christmas Gift for you… Koishii…" With that he kissed Kaoru lightly on the lips.
"I guess we are even than." Kaoru said in a sexy voice.
"Yes… but we can do this anytime you want." Kenshin finished his sentence with a wink towards Kaoru
Kaoru pulled away.
"Erm… I gotta go… see you around than."
"Wait… give me your cell phone number. Like this I can contact you faster." Then he reached to his jeans and pulled out his cell phone. Then the both of them exchanged their phones to type in their respective numbers.
After that, they returned back and bid each other farewell as they went separate ways.
