Rurouni Kenshin. It doesn't work.

"Like I said before, it's about time you two got hitched," Sano said, putting Kenshin in a headlock. Again. "But if you make one false move, then you'll never live to see the light of day again. You got me buddy?"
Kenshin began to gag before answering. "You know I'd never hurt Kaoru on purpose!" he gagged out. They were standing outside on the stoop of the shrine. Kaoru had gone off to talk to Tae and the rest of the bridesmaids. Aoshi and Saitou had gone off somewhere to be by themselves. Typical, those two never could stand crowds. (A/N Then they should not be living in JAPAN.)
"You better get going Kenshin or we'll be here all day trying to finish this wedding!" Sano said, some drool coming from the side of his mouth. Kenshin rolled his eyes. The only reason Sano wanted to go to the reception hall was to, duh, eat. Not wanting to be put in another headlock for leaving late, Kenshin called for Kaoru and helped her in the carriage. With a grin, the carriage drove off with Kenshin and Kaoru waving at the crowd.
*That feeling . . . * Kenshin thought, *The feeling I had earlier before hasn't left. I first thought it was Kaoru missing then it would be gone but . . . *
"Kenshin? Are you alright?" Kaoru's voice broke into his thoughts.
He glanced up at her quickly, looking into her deep ocean eyes, the same eyes that won his heart. "What is it Kaoru?" he asked politely.
"You . . . have question in your eyes. What's the matter?" she asked with wonder. Kenshin did not want to lie to her and yet didn't want her to know that he was bothered by a strange presence nearby.
"I'm not holding you," he said mischievously. Kenshin leaned over and wrapped Kaoru in his arms. Leaning his head over her shoulder, he captured her lips, kissing her with love. Kaoru returned the kiss and reach around to pull his lips against hers more.

"Nyarg! I'm hungry! Where are those two anyway?" Yahiko asked out loud, grabbing his stomach to try to keep it from growling.
"Yahiko, I think you'll live without a little bit of food," Megumi said, placing her hands on her hips. As if on cue, the carriage with the newly wed couple came to a halt. Sanosuke ran up to the driver who had just set down his reigns.
"Where in Sam Hill have you been?" Sano asked with rage. The driver simply shrugged.
"The groom asked for another go around the block." He didn't need any details so he stopped there. The door opened and out stepped a dazed Kenshin, his hair a complete mess, just like it usually is. Kaoru came out next, pulling her hair over her neck. This had not gone unnoticed by Misao.
"Miss Kaoru, what happened to your neck?" she asked pushing back her hair. She saw a red spot. A BIG red spot.
"OOOOOOH! Oh, okay!" Misao said, chuckling nervously. Kaoru sarcastically chuckled with her, yanking back her hair. Kenshin continued walking, except into other people. Sano grabbed him by the elbow as if he were blind and led him into the reception hall.

Kenshin and Kaoru had been standing for what seemed like an eternity to them, shaking all 253 residents that had attended their wedding. Kenshin got a little fed up with all the men hugging Kaoru and kissing her hand but had decided this was not a time for him to get jealous. Not that Kaoru was particularly enjoying the women kissing Kenshin on the cheek. She was jealous but was to tired to do anything about it. Finally, they got to sit down to take a load off.
Kaoru suddenly perked up and looked over at Kenshin. "I have a surprise for you. Hold on a second." Climbing to her aching feet, she walked out the door. Everything went quiet in Kenshin's mind, even though no one had noticed Kaoru leave. *That aura . . . * he thought, * it's getting stronger but some how, I feel like I've sensed it before. But where could I've felt it? *
Before Kenshin could think of where else that aura had come from, the doors opened and in stepped Kaoru. Behind her was none other than . . .
"Master!" Kenshin cried, going swirly-eyed. Hiko put his hands in his pockets and glared at Kenshin.
"Is THAT anyway to treat your best friend?" he said sarcastically. He took large steps forward, which caused Kaoru to walk a little faster to keep up with him. Kenshin looked at Kaoru's happy face, who thought it would be clever to invite Kenshin's Master Hiko to their wedding.
Hiko stopped in front of Kenshin and just looked at him. "I still don't understand how this baffoon seems to get all the good looking women," he asked out loud, referring to both Tomoe and Kaoru.
"I ask myself the same question everyday," Sanosuke said aloud. Rolling his eyes he turned back to his student.
"How did you get here so fast anyway, Master?" Kenshin asked through gritted teeth. Hiko smiled.
"Well, unlike you, your new wife has a brain AND a heart, which is hard to come by these days in women. So, she invited me to this wedding about two weeks ago. It seems I'm getting old, I forgot which way points to Tokyo." Stepping closer to Kenshin, he whispered, " This one's a keeper. You better not let her go or you'll be dead within a days time."
Kenshin knew he hadn't meant it as a threat but rather as he would never actually survive without her. Thinking back to what Enishi had done, he shuddered at the thought.
"Whoa! What'd I do?" Hiko asked. Kenshin looked at him with confusion.
"You haven't done a thing, why do you ask?" Kenshin replied, just staring at him.
"Nothing, it's your eyes. They went amber for some reason. Having an afterthought?" Realizing that his eyes just went amber, Kenshin quickly blinked his eyes to regain their usual violet glow.
"Well, I better get moving," Hiko said, turning to leave with a swoosh of his cape.
"Already? Can't you stay a few moments longer?" Kaoru asked with pleading eyes. Hiko chuckled.
"No, I have far to much work to do than to stay around here. I wish I could, but really, I can't," was his answer.
"What you call work is getting drunk and then talking about people behind their backs," Kenshin muttered.
"Precisely!" he said. Kaoru leaned over on the table where she was supposed to be sitting, tapping her fingers gently.
"You know, we haven't cut the cake yet but we need a taste tester. But if you don't want to do it, I understand . . ." Kaoru said with a sigh. Kenshin actually thought that she was telling the truth about wanting a taste tester. * Whaddya know? Not only can she sing, she can act to * Kenshin thought, realizing she only wanted his master to stay.
"Well, I guess I could stay another hour or so!" Hiko said, chopsticks and a plate in his hands. Kenshin smacked his head and began to mutter oro over and over again. Kaoru giggle and returned to her seat next to Kenshin. Sano and Aoshi soon arrived in front of them, carrying the huge cake. Handing her the knife, Kenshin ushered for her to slice the cake.
Trying desperately to not make a fool out of herself because she cannot cut a cake, she cut a rather small piece. She gave that to Sano who pouted. The piece that was given to Kenshin was a little too big and when he wasn't looking, Sano switched their pieces. Unfortunately, right after that was done, Kenshin's finger went straight through his skinny slice. Kaoru began to laugh at how clumsy Kenshin is. He frowned playfully and smeared the icing on the tip of her nose. Wiggling her nose, she tried to get it off without using the sleeve of her kimono. Reaching over, Kenshin kissed the tip of her nose, wiping off the icing.
Then he pulled her in for a full kiss, having the entire crowd go 'Awww'.

Yes! I KNEW I'd find a way to shove Hiko in there! I KNEW it! Anyway, I decided to post this chapter today. My computer seems to be cursed on New Years Eve and I can't post more than two chapter's. So I'm posting two today and two tomorrow. And yes, there are only two chapter's left.
Next chapter! Hope you like it!
