Chapter 5
The next day Kaoru had headed over to Misao's house to talk.
"Hey Misao thanks for letting me borrow your dress."
"No problem. So, what did you want to talk about?"
"Sano and I heard Kenshin and Megumi talking last night."
"I'd never thought you'd be one to eavesdrop."
"I wasn't eavesdropping. Sano and I went outside to get some air and overheard them talking."
"It still sounds like eavesdropping."
"Not the point Misao. Anyways, him and Megumi were talking and it turns out that he doesn't like her in the way I thought he did."
"Really?"
"Yeah and it means I still have a chance. Unfortunately, Sano opened his big fat mouth and told Kenshin how I felt about him."
"I knew that rooster head would say something like that."
"He's going to talk to Kenshin and tell him it was a joke and a gag."
"You think Kenshin will believe him?"
"I hope so. How was it last night with Soujiro?"
"It was nice. I had a lot of fun with him. I was still sad about Aoshi going with Myra. Then again Soujiro was feeling half as bad since Hitomi was with John."
"Well, maybe next year. Who knows if another Sadie Hawkins' Dance comes up."
"I hope I have the guts to do it."
"I'm sure you will. I'm going to get going to pick up Yahiko from his fun time with Yutaro at the park. I'll see you later."
"See you Kaoru and don't worry about Himura."
"I'll try not too."

(At the Park)
Kaoru walked to the park where she saw Yahiko having fun with Yutaro and Kenshin's sister, Tsubame. Once Kaoru saw Tsubame she knew she'd see the person she didn't want to see just this second and as if she were psychic she saw him.
'Of all the times . . . why now?'
Kaoru tried her best to ignore Kenshin and pretend he was invisible, but she couldn't bring herself to do it.
"Kaoru, I'm glad you're here. I wanted to talk with you."
"I wanted to talk with you too, could we sit down please?"
"Sure Kaoru" he said while he sat down on the nearest bench and Kaoru sat down next to him.
"Kenshin did you talk to Sano today?"
"No, I haven't seen him, but he told me something last night. Kaoru I wanted to tell you-"
"Kenshin let me go first."
"Um, okay."
"Listen Kenshin I know what Sano told you last night and it isn't true."
"Kaoru I know you're lying, that I do."
"Now I feel more embarrassed than ever."
"Kaoru I'm glad I found out."
"Huh?"
"Kaoru when Sano told me how you felt about me last night I felt surprised and happy all at the same time."
"You did?"
"Yes, you see lately, even before this dance, I had been feeling a little nervous around you."
"You have?"
"Yes. Then when I saw you last night I almost didn't recognize and I thought you looked beautiful, then I started have those nervous feelings again and when Sano told me about how you felt about me It was all I could think about. Then I realized that I like you too as more than a friend."
"Really?"
"Really."
"I like you too Kenshin" she sighed with relief "it feels like a large weight has been lifted off my shoulders and I feel great now that it's out."
"Me too. Do you want to go out sometime?"
"Sure."
"Yo, Kenshin I'm glad I found you" a familiar voice interrupted their conversation "I see the missy's here. Look Kenshin before you say anything to missy-"
"Um, Sano."
"Just a second missy. I wanted to tell you that what I said last night to you about missy it-"
"Uh, Sano."
"Wait a minute missy. I wanted to tell you that it was a joke, a gag, an early April fool's joke I should call it. It wasn't true."
Silence came upon the group until Kenshin and Kaoru burst out laughing.
"And what is so funny?"
"Sano, Kenshin and I already talked about what you said last night."
"You did?"
"Yes, Sano and everything is fine that it is."
"You mean I got up early and spent half the day looking for you to make a total fool out of myself because you already worked it out. What a waste of sleep."
"Sano, I can't believe I'm saying this but thank you" she said giving him a big hug.
Sano returned the hug, "I knew you'd thank me what did I tell you? Anyways I leave you two love birds alone."
"Sano!"
"Bye Kenshin. Bye missy." "Bye."
"I tried to stop him."
"I know. So, what do you want to do?"
"Just sit here with you and let our siblings have some fun. You?"
"Same thing."
With that they cuddled on the bench and while watching the sun start to set and the kids playing.
