Chapter 24: What if I love Kenshin too?
Disclaimer: I don't own RK!
I stepped inside my room quietly, trying not to wake okaasan and otousan up. I looked at the calendar hanging on the wall.
"Oh... Now summer vacation is nearing... I wonder if I'll ask Kenshin and Sanosuke out for the beach." I sighed.
I lied on my bed and took out a book to read. When I opened the book, in one of the pages I saw a picture.
I turned it around and saw that...it was Kenshin and my picture.
I shook my head. I looked inside my drawer and saw some magazines, preferably "GALS' MAG."
I suddenly remembered the last time that the woman who was taking our class picture asked me to be a model. No way am I going to be a model!
And so, the curtain of dreams fell...
---------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------
Days passed...
I listened intently on what Wataru-sensei was discussing in our class.
"Class, please open your book to page 298. Answer test 1 up to test 5." Wataru-sensei said. "Class, tomorrow is your summer vacation."
We all gasped.
"That fast?" Tae asked me.
I nodded. "I'm so excited! Let's go to the beach!" I exclaimed.
"Yeah, you go to the beach so you'll turn like a Negro!" Kamatari interrupted.
"Am I talking to you?" I asked.
"Well, now you're talking to me!" Kamatari exclaimed and laughed, rather evilly.
I mumbled curses.
"Wow! How cute!" Kamatari exclaimed as she took the paper I was holding.
"That's Kaoru's work! She's really a great artist!" Tae praised.
I blushed. "Well..."
Kamatari pointed out the kawaii character with a long hair. "Who is this?"
"She is. That's Kaoru!" Tae said and giggled.
"Tae-chan...!" I murmured.
Kamatari's face turned to disgust. "This is actually Kaoru? How can she be this kawaii when she's so ugly?" Kamatari said to her friends.
Her friends laughed. Hey, I'm noticing that they always laugh. Maybe they got paid? We don't know.
I glared at Kamatari, but then I was hurt. No one had the guts to tell me that.
Kenshin grabbed the paper away from Kamatari. "Let me see. Hmm... Kaoru's so cute!"
I blushed.
"Kenshin, you don't know what you're talking about. Kamatari's more beautiful and kawaii than that ugly Kaoru!" Yumi exclaimed.
"That's right, girl!" Kamatari exclaimed.
The group of Kamatari laughed.
Kenshin shook his head. "When will you girls stop being so stylish and popular?" Kenshin said calmly and returned the paper to me.
The girls gasped.
I took the paper from Kenshin and smiled at him. "Thanks..." I whispered.
Kenshin winked at me. "That's ok."
Tae hit me with her elbow. "Just look at their faces! They look so surprised because Kenshin didn't like them!" Tae exclaimed.
I giggled and looked back at Kenshin.
Kenshin was writing something on a piece of paper.
Later...
"You can't imagine their terrified faces, Sano." I explained to Sanosuke while walking towards home.
"They deserve that and they must learn to shut up. They hurt people." Sanosuke said.
I nodded and looked at the ground, thinking about everything.
"Wow... Summer's nearing..." Sanosuke whispered.
I nodded and smiled. "Sano, do you want to go to the beach this summer?" I asked excitedly.
Sanosuke chuckled. "Why is that?"
I want to be with you...forever, I thought. I shook my head and smiled sweetly. "Nothing! I just want to spend the summer vacation so great!"
Sanosuke smiled. "Sure!"
I jumped a little. "Yey!"
Sanosuke's my fiancé and I don't regret it. I understand him feeling so jealous when Kenshin is near me. I still love him.
...and I'm glad he's not being so possessive of me now...
"Hungry?" Sanosuke asked.
I nodded. "Hai."
"Well, let's buy some hamburgers!"
---------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------
Kenshin stared at the two lovebirds outside the restaurant. Kenshin was drinking iced tea.
"Beginning to be a stalker, ne?"
Kenshin looked up and saw Megumi. "Why are you here?" he asked, not looking at her.
Megumi was hurt a little. She sat on the vacant chair, facing Kenshin.
"I'm here...to fix our relationship." Megumi said.
"Look," Kenshin said and faced Megumi with a serious look. "We don't have any relationship. Stop bugging me."
Megumi held Kenshin's hand. "I know that we just have a fake-relationship but... I've grown to love you." Megumi whispered.
Kenshin's eyes widened a little.
"Kenshin, am I not going to be good enough for you?" Megumi murmured.
Kenshin looked at Megumi's face again.
Megumi is beautiful, but it was not like the simple, charming, kawaii, sincere, honest, blah...face of Kaoru.
Megumi almost looked like Tomoe, his ex-girlfriend.
Kenshin only courted Tomoe because of a bet. After his friends have given him the money, they broke up.
Kenshin closed his eyes. He was a real playboy before. When he met Kaoru and have known her, he changed a lot.
"Can I think about this, Megumi?" Kenshin asked finally.
Megumi sighed. "S-sure..."
"Come on. I'll walk you home." Kenshin said and stood up.
What if I wasn't a playboy? Would Kaoru care about me even though I haven't done anything wrong?
Meanwhile...
I bit on the hamburger and nibbled it slowly, savoring the deliciousness of it.
"Is that the regular hamburger?" Sanosuke asked as he ate the hamburger.
We were sitting in a bench in the park.
It was so peaceful and breezy.
I nodded. "Yup."
"Taste this one. It's cheeseburger." Sanosuke said and offered the hamburger to me.
I bit on the side and tasted it.
So delicious! Especially the cheese!
"Have you bought some drinks?" I asked while my mouth was full.
Bad, bad Kaoru!
Sanosuke laughed. "Here." He said and took out the plastic. "Huh? But I ordered two!!"
I hit him with my elbow. "Stop it, Sanosuke! I know you bought only one drink in purpose." I said and giggled.
"You have seen though me easily! Here." Sanosuke said and took out two straws.
I laughed at the cliché. "You are doing it on purpose!" I exclaimed, laughing.
"WAAH!! Well, I deserve to be corny. So, let's drink!" Sanosuke said.
I drank on the Pepsi using the straw; even Sanosuke was doing the same.
Aww...!
Such sweet lovers!
Suddenly, I felt a presence in front of us.
I looked up and saw Kenshin staring at us, and I could see he was so surprised.
Jealous, maybe...?
I was shocked to when I saw Megumi's head resting on his shoulder.
Kenshin and I stared at each other while our partners were not looking.
I looked at Kenshin and Megumi once more and I looked away.
"Sanosuke, let's go to our house. Let's eat dinner!" I said cheerfully even though I was no cheerful.
"Oh, ok." Sanosuke said and stood up.
He didn't even notice Kenshin!
As I walked with Sanosuke, I remembered what I felt when I saw Megumi and him.
I felt kind of jealous too...
Is this right...?
What if I love...Kenshin...too...?
What will I do...?

Author's note: Konnichiwa! I won't be able to write the next chapter very quickly because it's our FINALS tomorrow, and I'm trying to be a "valedictorian". Wow! If only I could do that...
Such endless dreams...
Anyway, wish me luck! I hope I don't get the lowest grade! ^_^
