Chapter 2: Big Surprises
Kaoru felt her jaw drop as she realized who it was. "You!" she gasped, staggering backwards.
"Yes me," Tomoe smiled evilly, which did not match her usually sweet tempered face. "Stay away from Kenshin you bitch." Misao gasped and stepped forward, glaring.
"Don't talk to Kaoru that way!! It's not her fault if you're a jealous power hungry baka!" She slapped Tomoe across the face, and grabbed Kaoru's arm. Tomoe turned her face to the side the moment she had seen Misao's hand being raised. She closed her eyes and winced on impact. She could just feel the blood rushing to her cheek as it turned maroon. When she opened her eyes, Misao was already dragging a very shocked Kaoru.
"You're not at the top of the school anymore Kaoru!! My father's the new principal and we'll see who gets Kenshin then!!" She yelled after her before clutching her cheek and turning away. And all of this happened right in front of the shocked Akira, who had come back to find Kenshin's hair tie.
Kenshin wandered around aimlessly, looking for something to do. He didn't plan on going to any of the rest of his classes, for fear that he would see Kaoru. His flaming red hair fell beside his shoulders, as his hair had come undone when he'd rushed away for lunch. He crumpled against a tree, feeling helpless. He lifted his head, and saw Akira walking towards him. Kenshin turned his head, letting his hair cover his face. He didn't really want to talk to anybody right now. He couldn't help feeling that he had loved Kaoru before, but the fact that they were only juniors and that he had moved here from the other end of Japan didn't help. He needed time alone to think about him. Akira had reached him by now, and slumped down on the tree trunk beside Kenshin. "Hey man," he said. Kenshin lifted his head a bit, and saw Akira holding out his hair band. "Thanks," he mumbled, taking it and sweeping his hair back in a ponytail, revealing his scar. Akira flinched a little and then looked at him seriously. "Do you like Tomoe?" he asked, treading on dangerous waters. Kenshin looked up surprised, and shook his head. "Not in any way." He announced. Akira's smile relaxed and Kenshin searched his face for answers. "Why...?" He asked, suddenly suspicious. Akira's smile faltered a bit, and he dropped his head before looking Kenshin in the eye. "Well I went back to get your hair band and I saw uhh...Misao, Kaoru, and Tomoe..." He trailed off before finding his voice again. "Apparently Kaoru had had a breakdown or something, and Tomoe reacted rather strangely. Kenshin looked up and stared at him. "Tomoe likes you Kenshin...but please don't lead her on okay?" Kenshin smiled at him and nodded. "Why would I do that?! I don't even like her, I like..." he stopped suddenly, unwilling to tell anybody just yet. Akira smirked at him. "You don't need to tell me. I think I already know. Anyways, if you're ever with Tomoe, throw in a word or two about me okay?" A light bulb suddenly went off in Kenshin's head. "Ooohhh.... I got it." he smirked back, making Akira blush slightly. Akira looked away, his cheeks still turning red. "Come on, want to go to my place? I don't feel much like going to the rest of my classes either." he winked at Kenshin, who laughed. "Alright, if you insist. Are Sano, Soujiro, Aoshi, and Shishio gonna be there?" He asked. He got up, and suddenly gasped. "DAMN I FORGOT!!" Akira shot up and looked around. "What? What'd you forget?" Akira looked at him curiously. Kenshin groaned and sank back onto the ground. "I have detention today!!!!" Kenshin hit his head against the tree bark. Akira laughed and fell onto the ground. "Man, would I hate to be you today!!!" He choked, before shutting up under Kenshin's murderous stare. His eyes flashed angrily, and he pushed himself off the ground. "I'm going to detention. That bitch isn't going to bother me anymore." Akira nodded thoughtfully before getting up. "Whatever you say Kenshin," he laughed. "Come on, let's get you to Saitoh's room." He and Kenshin grinned at each other, and set off across the wide campus.
Kenshin strolled into Room 37 and smirked at Saitoh Hajime, who glared right back. "You're late Mr. Himura." He growled, advancing on him like a wolf would on an unsuspecting rabbit. Kaoru was already seated at her desk, and Kenshin squinted at her. Something was different, she didn't seem as...evil as before. "Get to your seat!" he barked, and Kenshin scurried to do his bidding. Mr. Hajime returned to the front of the room, and smiled evilly at the two. "Now, I'm going to go run copies for tomorrow's class. When I come back, I expect the room to be sparkling clean. If there's any blood on the floor and you two are gone, I'll assume what happened." He strode to the door, and left with a slam. Kenshin sighed and grabbed a duster off a desk. He walked over to the bookcase and started dusting. He had finished the whole bookcase when he realized that Mr. Hajime probably wouldn't be back anytime soon. Meanwhile, Kaoru was busily working on the desks, scrubbing them with soap and water before using a towel to dry them off. He looked at her for a moment. She looked really good when she was working. Her hair was tied up in a half bun half ponytail, but a few bangs still fell forward. She wasn't wearing the school uniform anymore, she was wearing a pretty white sweater, and she had the sleeves pushed up. She was wearing tight fitting jeans now, and they showed off her form very well. Suddenly she stopped, aware that he was watching her. "What?" she asked in a gentle voice, unlike the one that had just mocked him this morning. He staggered into the bookcase, shocked, as she looked at him reprovingly. "Uh...nothing," he rushed, stabling the bookcase. He blushed and went back to work on the sinks, as Kaoru went back to the desks. Unable to keep it quiet any longer, he blurted out. "Did you live in Tokyo before?" Kaoru stared at him. "Um...yeah...for about a year while my dad was teaching at another dojo..." she looked at him. "How did you know?" He blushed furiously, his face now matching his red hair. "Nothing..." he mumbled, and scrubbed the sinks ferociously. Now it was Kaoru's turn to stare at him. He red hair fell over his face, his sleeves were pushed up to reveal muscular tan arms. His shirt was slightly unbuttoned in the front, showing part of his perfectly tanned chest. Kaoru couldn't deny it, he was hot! Kenshin felt her stare and blushed, trailing his sleeve through the soapy water. Kaoru blushed to match Kenshin, and started drying off her desks. When they were finally through with the classroom, they both gathered their stuff and left.
Kenshin stepped off the curb as his limo drove up. A chauffeur came out, and opened the door for him. Kenshin nodded carelessly and threw his bag in before climbing in the car himself. He stretched out on the plush seats before changing out of the ugly school uniform. Soon, he was in white sneakers, baggy jeans, and a navy blue sweatshirt. As the limo drove up to his house, he stuffed his uniform into his backpack and got ready to go inside. The car finally came to a complete stop, and the chauffeur opened his door. He stepped out and breathed deeply in the sharp November air. He walked through the garage and stepped inside his magnificent home. Richly furnished carpet and furniture surrounded the room, and a beautiful chandelier hung from the ceiling. "I'm home Hiko!!" He called, throwing his bag on a couch and heading towards the kitchen. His guardian strode out of another room. Hiko Seijuurou was a strong man, tall and dark. Many ladies were attracted to him, but he had eyes for no one. Long dark hair fell past his shoulders, and he was always wearing an old fashioned cloak, and he always had a mysterious air around him. Hiko wasn't Kenshin's father, but rather a guardian. Nobody but them two knew if they were related or not, and it looked like it would be staying that way. Hiko growled at him. "Baka, don't throw your bag on the floor." Kenshin glared back, and threw his bag upstairs. Suddenly, the doorbell rang. Hiko strode magnificently to the door as Kenshin continued his way to the Kitchen. He had just gotten out a sandwich when Hiko came back in, with somebody else behind him. "Kenshin!" he boomed. "You can at least tell me when you're having company!" Kenshin stared at him. "But I'm not..." Hiko glared right back, and stepped aside, revealing....Tomoe...? Kenshin choked and fell over.
