Author's Notes: Hello minna-san! (Newest update on the secrets of S.Girl: She eats toejam! Kidding. She'll probably kill me if that was true and I told everyone that. Obviously, as I'm still alive, she doesn't eat toejam. However…)

S.Girl: *pops out of nowhere*

C.Kitsune: *sticks her tongue out* (I hate it when she does that. I always have to stick my tongue out for show.)

S.Girl: HOHOHO! This is C.Kitsune's almost first ficcy all by herself! (I bet she'll fail miserably.)

C.Kitsune: *whack* Respect your elders, lady! I will never fail! HAHAHA! (If I fail miserably, everybody has to give me advice. Failing and failing miserably are different.)

S.Girl: *rubs head* Stupid. I'm older than you.

C.Kitsune: True. Respect your youngers, then! Hand over the money! (Dunno where that came from.)

Boss-sama: The show has to start now, else I'll get fired, and then I'll have to fire you, and then we'll probably all end up living on the streets, and I don't want that to happen, because the streets are cold, so--

S.Girl: *shoves Boss-sama down trash can* GO AWAY YOU BRAT!

C.Kitsune: Okay...that was weird. However, there's no time for that now. Now we start the story! Halleluiah!

Disclaimer: I know this may sound weird, but please, keep all toejam away from S.Girl. (Who knows what she might do with it…last time, I believe she tried to hatch a hair from her leg.) Also, none of these characters rightfully belong to me. They all belong to whoever created these animes. (I dunno anything. Don't blame it on me.) And once again…KEEP ALL TOEJAM AWAY FROM S.GIRL. Thank you, and have a nice reading.

Chapter 1: The Piano

***

*BANG, CLASH, BANG, CLASH*

            "WHAT IS THAT INFERNAL NOISE?!?!?!?!?!"

            Kaoru Kamiya, owner of the Kamiya dojo, grimaced, dropping the pot she was currently holding and covered her ears as broken sound waves floated about the room.

           "Ohayo, Kaoru-do-I mean-Kaoru!"

            Himura Kenshin flashed his beloved Kaoru a smile. They'd been 'an item' (By the way, everyone understands what 'an item' is right?) for quite some time now, and they were preparing to get married on Valentine's Day. (Not that Valentine's Day existed back then, but let's leave that out for now) Even so, it was awfully hard for Kenshin to get used to dropping the 'dono' on the end of Kaoru's name.

            "Oh. It's you."

            "Daijobu desu ka? You don't seem too happy. Usually you are very very very joyous when you see me."

            "I would be, except for that infernal noise."

*BANG, CLASH, BANG, CLASH*

            "See, there it goes again!"

            Kenshin smiled secretly to himself. He loved it when Kaoru was mad, because that meant he would get an opportunity to cook when she burned the food.

            "That is a piano."

            "Piano? Nani ga?"

            "A musical instrument."

            "If that is what you call music, then I'm the Queen of France!"

            "Good music requires practice."

            "Don't tell me that. If whoever if banging around back there needs to practice, then tell him/her to go outside!"

            "It's Sanosuke."

            "Is he drunk or something?! Sheesh. What a racket."

            "Actually, I believe he's doing his scales."

***At the piano seat

            "LALALALALALALALALALALA!"

            In truth, Sanosuke was quite drunk.

            "Monkeys and peaches and sake! And sake and sake and sake!"

*BANG, CLASH*

            "Dough, ray, me, falalalalala!"

***Back in the kitchen

            "Somebody make him stop. Please."

            "He's practicing to serenade Megumi-san."

            "She's not going to be happy."

            "That's how they show their love for each other. Isn't it interesting?"

            "It's stupid."

            Kenshin put on a stupid smile. Kaoru just looked so cute with that pout and veins popping out everywhere on her forehead. Unknowingly, he reached out and grabbed a vein.

            "OWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!!"

            "Oops, sorry. I just love the cutie little vein!!!"

            Kaoru glared at him. She hated it when he did that. So, for revenge, she grabbed three strands of red hair and attempted to braid it. (Well, if she can't cook, what makes ya think she can braid?)

            "Kenshin, dearie, do me a favor please!!!" Kaoru asked with a pretty smile.

            Kenshin put on the stupid smile again. Kaoru just looked so cute with that smile and those shining white teeth. Unknowingly, he reached out and grabbed a tooth.

            "AHEM!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Kenshin, my love, STOP DOING THAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

            Kenshin stuck his tongue out at here.

            "Right, right, then. What is it you would like for me to do, my lady?"

            "Heh."

            And she whispered it to his ears.
