"So Kenshin, do you want to stay for dinner or do you want me to give you a ride home?"asked Kaoru.
"Can you please give me a ride home. My uncle won't be happy if I stay out too late."
"Oh ok. Well before we do um here's your mask and here's some acne medication and you can use it for oily skin too. Its perfect!"said Kaoru.
"Ok Miss Kaoru."
"Well I don't want you to get in trouble so should we get moving?"said Kaoru.
"Sure."
"Ok then."said Kaoru.
As they were in the Lexus. .
"Hey Kenshin? Why are you so nice?"asked Kaoru.
"What?"replied Kenshin.
"Why are you so kind and easy going?"
"I don't know. Maybe its my nature."
"Oh ok. Your not like other guys that's all."
"Does it make a big difference?"
"Yes it does. Your so different. And different is good. Not like some snobby brat."
"I am glad you think that way Miss Kaoru. Turn left."
"Tell me which house it is Kenshin."
"We're near it."
"Ok."
"Its that one,"said Kenshin while pointing to a gray house.
"Oh ok."replied Kaoru while turning and driving up the driveway.
"Bye Kenshin. Thanks for coming over!"said Kaoru while Kenshin got out.
"No thank you miss Kaoru."replied Kenshin while smiling warmly.
The next day at school
"Oh my gosh! I think Himura has finally taken a look in the mirror. .Don't you hun?"said Sano as Kenshin walked by wearing a mask and a wig (nobody recognized the wig though).
"Yeah whatever Sano,"replied Kaoru.
"Oh come on Kaoru! What have you done to the poor boy? I know you had something to do with this,"said Megumi.
"How did you know?"asked Kaoru.
"Because I saw you guys walking towards your car while I was heading out to my car. Duh!"replied Megumi.
"Oh,"said Kaoru.
"Yaw well I hope whatever your doing is working but a mask is not gonna!"said Sano.
"Shut up. You'll see!"replied Kaoru then walked off to class.
"When are you going to tell her? You can't keep this up you idiot!"said Megumi.
"I will I will!"replied Sano.
"Its better sooner then later you idiot!! Humph. I hope she won't be mad,"said Megumi.
"Mad at what?"asked Kaoru reappearing.
"What are you doing here?"said Megumi shocked.
"I forgot my books?"replied Kaoru.
"Well anyway, Sano has something he'd like to tell you."
"I do?!"
"Yes you idiot. Start on it."
"Ok well um Kaoru? There's no easy way for me to tell you this but I am moving away and since I'd like to keep my options open,
"Wha. .wha. .what?"said Kaoru shocked and eyes filling with tears.
"I am moving and I would like to um keep my options open so this is a good bye? I hope you won't take this personally."
"Take it personally?! Your telling me not to take it personally?! Well FINE! I won't take it fucking personally!!"yelled Kaoru so loudly that students in the hall stopped dead in their tracks and started staring as Kaoru stomped away.
"You blew it you dumb idiot,"said Megumi then ran off to catch up with Kaoru.
Mr. Kamadeki's class
"Good morning class. You know what to do."said Mr. Kamadeki while turning to his laptop once more.
"So Kenshin. .have you been applying the medication?"asked Kaoru while blowing her noise with a tissue.
"Yes I have Miss Kaoru."replied Kenshin.
"It'll only be for 2 weeks or less. Only when some results show."said Kaoru.
"Oh ok."
"So we should be able to write a report about 1 week after?"said Kaoru.
"Yes that would be fine,"said Kenshin.
"Ok."
1 week went by. Kenshin's acne gets better. Almost clearing up. Then another week went by and it is gone. Hurray!! Thats some good acne medicine. .If some of you don't believe these miracle results. . I am asking you to bear with me! Kenshin and Kaoru are the good friends by the way. .
"Wow Kenshin! Its gone! So tomorrow you'll be able to take the mask off. Do you mind wearing tennis shoes and these clothes?"said Kaoru on a Sunday when Kenshin was at her house once more.
"I don't mind,"replied Kenshin who was also amazed how fast his acne vanished.
"Ok. Here you go! I have been saving these for you."said Kaoru while handing Kenshin the clothes she had bought him at the mall.
"Thank you Miss Kaoru."
"No problem! You can take that wig off if you want (chuckle)"
"Aww It was getting comfortable!"said Kenshin jokingly.
(Kaoru giggles)
Next day at school . . . .
