Chapter 23: Only one...
Disclaimer: I don't own RK!
Author's notes: About the last chapter, yep, (to "whatever") eyeballs can't be donated but I think the...um... Something inside the eye will do so she wouldn't be blind. I heard in the news that "it" can be donated to another. I don't know what it's called though...
I slowly opened my eyes and closed it once again because there was so much light.
I opened my eyes slowly and I saw Kenshin sleeping, his arms being the pillow for him and his arms were lying on my hospital bed.
I sat up and stared at him. I gently moved his bangs away from his face.
Tears again...
I was crying while I stared at him. "I'm not going to see anything...if I'm already blind..." I thought.
Suddenly, Kenshin's hand grabbed my hand.
Kenshin opened his eyes and smiled. "Ohayo..."
I was surprised at first, and then I wiped my tears away quickly and forced myself to smile.
Later...
I was reading my notes that were written on my notebook. The class would start again once winter stops, and vacation again because it's summer.
The door opened.
I looked at the door and smiled when I saw Kenshin coming inside the room.
"Breakfast." Kenshin said and smiled. He put the tray of food on the small table and sat on the chair beside my bed. He grabbed a bowl with some porridge.
I watched him intently as he wiped his hands and grabbed the spoon.
"Open your mouth." Kenshin said and neared the spoon with some porridge at my mouth.
I blushed crimson. I shook my head and turned away. "N-no! I'm going to do it by myself!" I exclaimed and tried to get the spoon.
Kenshin laughed heartily. "If you just look at yourself, you're red as a tomato!" Kenshin exclaimed and did not let me get the spoon.
"Mou! Give me that darn spoon and I'll eat what's on it!" I exclaimed, giggling.
Kenshin suddenly put the spoon inside my mouth and he laughed.
I didn't notice it! He used his God-like speed again!
I tasted the porridge and it tasted good!
Kenshin dipped the spoon in the bowl again. "Say 'ah'."
"Ah!" *eat, eat*
I didn't care anymore if Kenshin fed me like a child...as long I can see him and be with him.
I just wished that...I wouldn't be blind...
Ok, so months passed...
Winter is over and we got back to class again.
I went to room D after dismissal (Please read chapter 8 if you want to. There's a certain place that is room D) and I practiced with my co-dancers for the declamation contest.
Ah! Oh yeah. Sanosuke and the rest of the gumi went back to Japan... Good thing they weren't mad...
I was so tired after the practice that I was gaping for air! I sat back on the wall and drank some water. I closed my eyes and once I opened it, I saw Kenshin and Sanosuke talking.
Sanosuke was serious...
Kenshin was serious too...
My heart began to pound. "Why am I so nervous...?" I whispered to myself, putting my right hand on my chest to feel my pounding heart.
I looked at the two again and I saw that they looked at me at the same time!
I looked away quickly and blushed. I grabbed my bag and stood up. I went towards the door. "Ah... Excuse me," I murmured.
Sanosuke and Kenshin looked at me and let me pass through.
Kamisama! That was like...the very hard thing to do!
I ran towards the stairs quickly that made me almost trip! I went out of the school and panted. I walked and walked, making my feet lead the way.
I looked up and I saw I was in the Sakura trees road. "Not here again..." I mumbled.
So many things happened in this road...
The day when I called out Sanosuke's name and he was there right away.
...the day when Sanosuke kissed my cheek for the first time...
So many...countless, maybe...?
I sighed.
"Kaoru,"
I looked around and saw Sanosuke. I looked around again and realized there were no people in the road except the two of us.
"Kaoru, can you meet me here tonight at 9:00 pm?" Sanosuke asked, holding my left hand.
I blinked many times and smiled. "Of course. I'm your fiancée."
Sanosuke didn't smile. He looked so serious that I almost thought of running away.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------
I took a shower and wore my violet sleeveless shirt. It was beginning to be summer, and it's also beginning to be hot too.
I sprayed on my perfume and held the door knob. I inhaled deeply and looked at my bed. I saw the lavender bear that was given by Kenshin.
"I wonder what Sanosuke would say to me..."
I went out of the house with the knowledge of my parents. I went towards the Sakura trees road. I looked around and saw Sanosuke walking.
I waved at him. "Here!"
Sanosuke smiled.
Smiled!
Sanosuke looked at me from feet to head. "You look beautiful like always..." he whispered. "Oh. You wore the fragrant jasmine again."
I blushed. "Arigatoo... So, what are we going to talk about?" I asked.
"Why did you come with Kenshin when going to Japan?" Sanosuke asked, his smile beginning to fade away.
I blinked again. I sighed.
"Wataru-sensei appointed Kenshin to clean and arrange the classroom. Only his seatmate would help. His other seatmate wasn't available, so I was the one who helped him. The cleaning's going to be one of the reasons why my grades would be high this semester." I explained.
"Is that really the true reason?" Sanosuke asked, gently placing his arms around me.
I looked at the trees. "Sometimes...it's confusing..."
"Eh?"
I smiled sadly. "You were there. You heard him say IT." I whispered.
Sanosuke pulled me closer to him. "Don't worry, Kaoru... If you're confused or in a problem, I'm right here."
I looked at him and smiled.
"Remember, I'm your fiancé." Sanosuke said. "Anyway, do your parents know about our relationship?" he asked.
I nodded slowly. "I didn't know how they found it out. But I'm glad that they already know it, at least I will not suffer anymore." I whispered.
I looked at him teasingly. "You? What about your parents?"
Sanosuke smiled sadly. "They passed away when I was 9 years old. I'm living in an apartment that was rented by my uncle. I live alone there..."
"Oh..."
"I'm not very close to my relatives...so you're the only one whom I want to be with and to love forever. I don't have anyone to love since my parents passed away. You're the only one, Kaoru..." Sanosuke mumbled and hugged me tightly.
My eyes widened. His words echoed in my mind.
"You're the only one... Don't leave me..." Sanosuke whispered more.
I wrapped my arms around him too.
"How am I supposed to be the only one for him if...I'm going to be blind and won't see him forever...?"

"Bye," Sanosuke said and waved back Kaoru.
Kaoru waved her hand at Sanosuke beautifully, like a beautiful maiden. "Bye- bye." Kaoru said as she opened the gate of their house.
Kenshin was hiding at the tree and was watching Kaoru and Sanosuke all the time. He began to feel jealous when Kaoru kissed Sanosuke's cheek before saying goodbye.
Kaoru looked back, feeling a presence of someone. She looked at the trees around the house, but didn't see anything. She went inside the house and closed the gate.
Kenshin showed up.
Kaoru...
Am I really crazy for her now...?

WAAH!! The computer keeps on hanging up so I wasn't able to pass this latest chapter! I'm really glad about the reviews! I compared it to Ice picture, and realized that this is more realistic than the other one! Ok!
Oh, I typed this when it was already 10:00 pm! I'm sleepy! Bye-bye! ^_^
