Kureno: WE ARE TO IMPORTANT!! WE WROTE THIS FOR THEM!!

Devilspet: So? *smirks at his annoyance*

Kureno: URG!! SHUT UP!! *voice softens* As always- read, enjoy (hopefully), and review.

Chapter 3: Feelings?

~*~

Kenshin blinked. "Oh, we're at Miss Mokoto's house." He said. "Oh- wait! Whose house?" Sanosuke asked.

Motoko stood up. "You're at my house. I'm Mokoto Hikatone." She said. Sanosuke blinked and scanned the young woman up and down. 'Hmm . . . shiny, long midnight blue hair, curvy figure, beautiful, round, golden hazel eyes, and an entrancing smile.' Sanosuke smiled. 'I could learn to like this place.' (A/N: Perverted, I know, but I couldn't resist. Don't blame me; I'm a Miroku fan.)

Sanosuke hurried forward and shook Mokoto's hand enthusiastically. Mokoto blinked at his behavior. "Hello, I'm Sanosuke Sagara but you can call me Sano."

Motoko smiled. "Thank you, but I already knew that."

Sano frowned. "Really?"

Motoko nodded but before she could speak Kenshin interrupted. "Yes, I told her. But, Sano, what do you think you were doing, following me?"

"Stupid question." He answered.

"No, it's not." Mokoto insisted.

Sanosuke sighed. "Because you don't always think straight when Kaoru is involved and I was worried." He explained.

"I knew exactly what I was doing, that I did. There was no need to be worried." Kenshin said.

Mokoto blinked. 'Okay. Now tow people have mentioned the 'Kaoru' but who is she?' she thought, thoroughly confused. "Um, sorry to interrupt, but who is this 'Kaoru'?" she asked.

Sanosuke smirked. "Kenshin's wish-to-be woman."

Kenshin fell over but stood up once again, quickly. "WHAT??"

Mokoto couldn't help but laugh as Sanosuke and Kenshin bickered.

"You like Kaoru and you know it!"

"Do not!"

"Yes, you do!"

"No, I don't!"

"Yeah right, Kenshin! Stop denying it! Why else would you come all the way out here to save her, without telling us, if I might add, so quickly?"

Kenshin shrunk back slightly. "Because that's what any man with honor would do." He answered.

Sanosuke nodded sarcastically. "Yeah, you're right, Kenshin." He said softly. "But you know that's not the reason." With that he walked back to the bedroom without even a goodnight.

Kenshin sighed, dropped to the floor, and covered his face with a hand. "I'm sorry, Miss Mokoto, he tends to get somewhat overdramatic."

"I HEARD THAT KENSHIN!" Sanosuke called from the room.

"It's okay. So, you're out here to save this Kaoru girl? From what or who?" Motoko asked, trying to change the subject.

"My rival." Kenshin answered.

He heard Sanosuke snort and say 'Yeah right' from the other room.

Mokoto eyed Kenshin very carefully and suspiciously. "Is there something you're not telling me?"

Kenshin looked up at her innocently and shook his head. "No . . ." Mokoto could see right through his act but smiled and nodded. 'Liar.' She thought.

"So, do you really like her?" she asked.

"No!" he answered.

Mokoto laughed again.

'Kenshin, you are so obvious,' she thought.

Devilspet: Sorry for the short chapter! Don't blame me, blame the cursed writer's block!

Kureno: Your stupidity is showing again.

Devilspet: My wha . . .? Oh . . . grrrrrr!

Kureno: Intimidating.

Devilspet: I know, I am, aren't I?

Kureno: I was being sarcastic. But, what ever . . . please review everybody.
