I do not own Rurouni Kenshin
FIFTEEN
"Don't worry... I am sure that Kenshin would be just fine," Megumi said soothingly into his ear wishing she could do something more than that.
Sano slowly pulled away from Megumi and wiped his eyes suddenly feeling shy since he'd never broken down in front of a girl before. "Kenshin's always been a fighter, he won't give up that easily," Sano declared trying to make himself believe the words.
Megumi felt cold where Sano's body was pressed to hers only moments ago and felt regret that it had to end so soon. She gave Sano an encouraging smile not knowing what else to do. "And plus we could all pray for him, I'm sure someone up there is bound to hear us, especially when they find out that Kenshin is about to join them, I think they'll be more than happy to return him to us."
Sano gave off a little chuckle as his tears began to dry up, "Are you always happy like this?"
"Only when I have to be," Megumi answered seriously which made Sano laugh out loud. "What?"
"Nothing, just thought you were cute when you said that," Sano replied his voice suddenly going husky.
Megumi felt her face flush and her heart beating away inside her chest but she refused to look away from his eyes that were staring intensely into hers. I can't be intimidated, she tried to convince herself but in truth, even if her life depended on it, she doubted she could have taken her eyes off him.
Sano slowly lifted his hand and tracked the outline of Megumi's face, his eyes following the path that his finger was tracing before turning back to look at her.
Megumi sucked in her breath but did not dare move an inch scared that the magic that had unexpectedly fell over them would vanish just as quickly. Everything seemed to have disappeared and there was just the two of them standing within each other's arms. No ground beneath their feet, no sky above their heads, no time passing them by... just the two of them and endless infinity.
Sano carefully lowered his head not wanting to disrupt this strange atmosphere that seems to be shielding them from the rest of the world. He never felt such a desire to taste a girl's lips before and in many ways it scared him how much he wanted Megumi and know what it's like to kiss her and have her respond to him.
"WHERE THE HELL IS MY SON?" Came a loud shout from the hallway, pulling Sano out of their little world and into reality.
He hastily stepped away from Megumi with a self-disgust expression on his face.
He can't believe he was trying to make a move on a girl while his best friend was in the operating room fighting for his life. Too ashamed to look at Megumi, he ran out into the hallway to see what the commotion was about.
Megumi staggered back into the wall, wishing the ground would just open up and swallow her. Good job Megumi, you've managed to snatch the slut award this time, Megumi thought cynically in her mind. What the hell were you thinking seducing Sano while his best friend's life was in danger! No wonder he looked so disgusted, if I were him I'd be too. For the first time that night she wanted to break down and cry her heart out.
Sano ran into the hallway just in time to see Mr. Himura racing towards him looking years older.
"Where is he? God, Sanosuke... he was still fine when he left the house." Kenshin's father tried to keep his composure together even though his eyes were red from the unshed tears that he refused to let out. His son is going to make it so there's no point in crying, it would just be a waste of time and energy.
"He's still in the operating room... the doctors said it's going well."
"He's my only son... if anything-... " Mr. Himura let his statement trail off, as the tears finally fell from his eyes and he slowly broke down.
Sano, who have managed to get himself together lost his own self-control as he watched a man who have never shed a tear even when the only woman he loved left him cry out in anguish.
"T-they said that it was just-... "
"I'm so sorry it's all my fault," Kaoru suddenly cried out surprising both Sano and Kenshin's father who haven't seen her sitting there.
"Who's-... "
"What are you talking about?" Sano cut in waiting for Kaoru to continue.
"Kaoru, it's not your fault you could not have seen that thing-... " Megumi said from behind Sano as she made her way to her cousin not looking at Sano, scared she'll see the disgust on his face.
"NO! T-there wasn't anything that ran in front of Kenshin's car." Kaoru couldn't stand it anymore, when the police had questioned her she felt like her guilty conscience was eating away at her as she told the lie Kenshin instructed her to say.
And now seeing how much pain she was causing Kenshin's loved ones she couldn't keep silent anymore. "I-I grabbed his steering wheel and he lost control of the car... he wanted to protect me so he... he... shielded my body with his own!"
"You DID WHAT?" Sano screamed wanting to throttle her with all his might.
As if sensing his thoughts, Mr. Himura placed a hand on his shoulders and took one last look at Kaoru. "I don't ever want to see her face here anymore," He said coldly before making his way towards the operating room door and waiting by it.
"Please let me-... "
"You heard what he said," Sano said coldly schooling his face not to show any of the hatred he now felt for her. "Because you are a girl, I will let you walk out of this hospital on your own with your pride in tact today but if I ever so much as see you trying to go near to Kenshin or his room while he's here, I'll make sure the security guards escort you out in the manner you deserve."
"Please just let me-..."
"DIDN'T YOU HEAR ME? I SAID GET THE F*CK OUT OF HERE!" Sano suddenly shouted shocking Megumi and Kaoru into speechlessness.
Kaoru covered her mouth with her hand as she took a step back from Sano before turning around and running off as fresh tears burst forth.
Megumi stared at Sano never seeing him like this before, frightened by how cold and murderous he looks.
Megumi backed away from him then ran after Kaoru afraid she might do something stupid if left alone not seeing the way Sano stared after her, wishing she'd stayed instead.
"If anything happens to my son, I will not let her live comfortably."
