A/N: Hehehe...we're nearing the end.
Only one more chapter after this one and then the epilogue.
There's one couple left hanging, and so something will happen with those two now.
And every single person who's rading this kinda knows who, so I'll stop jabbering and I'll let you read it that good? Okay. Now read. And review. I'm SOOO close to being to 100! Please help me on my way there!
Chapter 14
I had been sitting for the past hour, restlessly twiddling my thumbs, thinking. Yes, what a perfect combo, I know.
I was excited and nervous. Aoshi and Misao were getting married tomorrow, one thing that I never thought I'd ever see, but it would be very exciting to witness.
Slowly, I turned my head towards the door, hoping that someone would enter it. As if on cue, Kenshin turned the corner and smiled at me.
With a smile like his, no matter what the cause was, I had to return it.
Kenshin came in and sat down beside me on the bed, and w sat in silence for a few minutes. Then I turned my head, and asked eagerly, "Is there something you wanted to talk to me about?"
He turned his head towards mine, a deep seriousness in his violet eyes.
"Yes, Kaoru, there is."
He put a finger under my chin and whispered a few original words into my ear, "Kaoru, will you agree to stay with me forever?"
I smiled, knowing what he meant. I whispered back, "Of course I will..."
And as we shared a perfect kiss, I felt a band slide onto my own finger...
***
I had gotten everything that I needed, but I would soon figure out why Kenshin had that sly-ish look on his face a few minutes after we were officially engaged.
I was lying down at the time, when Kenshin came into the room.
"Ooh, Kaaooruu," he said in a teasing tone.
I sat up and laughed, "Yes?" I asked.
Kenshin held out a long black velvet box and said, "There's one thing from the past that I believe I owe you for..."
I was a bit confused. I took it, opened it, and I could feel a smile spread across my face.
Inside the box was a fresh, shiny, beautiful indigo ribbon.
"You mean this is because of--"
"--the one that I got blood on a looong time ago in my fight with Jineh."
"Wow. I can't believe it."
"Yes. And at the showdown, you can wear it as a fresh beginning. It won't represent the past, but the future..."
He said, tying the beautiful ribbon into my hair.
Once he was finished, I reached back and felt my new ribbon against my hair. Then I threw my arms around Kenshin's neck and began thanking him.
We both started laughing, and we looked out into the sun, just waiting for the next day. We could feel what would happen on that day....
That next morning...we'd be prepared. Prepared to win.
A/N: Well, what did you think of this chapter? Huh? Well?
Plz dun forget to review me because every writer loves their reviews
and I worked extra hard on this chapter. Now remember, there's a final
chapter after this which will be pretty long...
Then there's an epilogue, which really isn't an epilogue but oh well.
And I have a question for you readers, IF I were to write a sequel to this, would you want me to?
(And more importantly would you read it?) Not saying that I AM but still.
