Hi ppl how are all of you doin'? here's the next chapter of THROUGH OUR EYES enjoy!

~*~*~*~*~*~~*~*~*

4 months later...

Kaoru was in a corner of the kitchen talking with her friends Misao and Megumi. She was at one of Aoshi's loud, fun and wild parties, just what she needed to start out her first week of summer vacation.

Suddenly she saw a pair of Violet eyes, looking straight at her...they were with no doubt at all, Kenshin Himura's eyes. She continued to chat with her friends anyway, not wanting to attract any of his attention.

Aoshi decided to liven up the mood in the house so he put a slow song on. Misao and Megumi asked to be excused, they were going to dance with their men...(Misao/Soujirou and Megumi/Sano)

Kaoru walked out of the kitchen and saw Kenshin sitting on the couch, alone. Kaoru was still wondering if he was still single of not, probally he would go into a bar again and end up getting drunk and end up doing something he wasn't soposed to. She didn't care what was going on in his life right now, it's not her business anyway.

Kaoru felt the urge to go over and talk to him, then she felt a tap on the shoulder, she looked and saw a tall boy, with dark blue eyes and jet black hair looking at her, it was Aoshi Shinomori

" You want to dance?" he asked her

Kaoru smiled . Kenshin could wait, he did break her heart after all. She nodded and the boy took her into the middle of the room and they began to slow dance with the other couples.

~~~ When the song that was playing ended, Kenshin didn't feel any better at all, in fact he felt worse. Kaoru dancing with that jackass Shinomori, of course he couldn't help but feel a stab of jealousy in him... He didn't even want to come to this damn party anyway, anything sounded better than being here at the moment.

He sat watching Kaoru closely, even though they weren't together anymore he still felt as though Kaoru was still his property. Which isn't unusual. (c'mon, its true most guys when they see their ex with someone else they still consider them their property, especially if they loved them!!!)

~~~

After a while, the party was almost over its was almost two in the morning and everybody was passed out, most of the people were quite drunk, including herself.. so in other words yes, the party was over technically. She wasn't that drunk but she felt a little light headed.

She walked around the house over the people sprawled out on the floor and looked around for anyone who would give her a ride home, anyone. She didn't care who, she was so warn out she just wanted to go home. But most of the people she knew had left, they were passed out sleeping anywhere around the house, or they were having a good time(A/N: lol!). She went over and sat down on the couch and looked up at the ceiling, she felt like she was going to pass out she tried to remain awake to look for someone who would take her home but in the end she gave in...and she eventually collapsed on the couch and fell asleep...

~~~

Kenshin thought he should hit the road, the party was over, but he was worried about Kaoru, he wanted to make sure she was okay so he decided to walk around the house to look for her

He looked around the house, but didn't see nothing, he saw sano walking into a room with megumi

'sick asshole...' he thought as he continued to walk around the house... he saw misao with aoshi making out, those two were on fire... but wait wasn't misao with soujirou?? Figures.

He continued to look around moving over all of the passed out people over the floor... he saw Saitou Hajime was one of them, with a woman in his arms Tokio perhaps?

Until he saw her passed out on the couch asleep.

' She looks comfortable... I can't leave her here... guess I better take her home.'

He picked her up and began to walk over to the car...

~~~

Kaoru:

She opened her eyes, her head was pounding, and she looked around ' Where am I?' she thought. She looked around some more, she wasn't at Aoshi's place on the couch, where she had normally fallen asleep, she was in a totally different room a totally different house. She was on a comfortable bed. She recognized this place very well, this was a place she knew so much., but it wouldn't come to her, but after some seconds of putting her light headed brain to function she snapped to it. ' Wait... I'm at Kenshin's apartment!' she sat up and she looked over to the wall where there was a couch, and she saw that Kenshin was there fast asleep. She thought ' Why did he sleep in the same room as me? There's a couch in the next room and he has a spare room here too... but why here on that couch? In this same room?' she still didn't understand, so she brushed that thought away and looked at him, she couldn't help but smile, he looked so peaceful when he slept.

She got up from the bed and she stood up, her head began to throb in pain, her world was spinning, she couldn't seem to focus well at all. She stood up and went to his bathroom and splashed her face with cold water then she went to the bathroom closet and looked for some asprin, she walked to the kitchen to get a glass of water. While she was she drinking her asprin, she heard coughing and groaning in the next room.' I guess Kenshin's up already...' she thought bitterly when she walked to his room she saw he was sitting on the couch. Just by the look on his face and the look in his eyes, he looked like he was having a terrible hang over, he was looking to the floor but then he looked at her and she stared back at him.

"I see you're up..." he said in a cold manner as he got up from the couch

"Yeah , and?"

"No big deal." He began to walk to the kitchen and she followed closely behind him

"What's your problem? You know, If your pissed at the whole break up thing it was your own fault, you know that." she remarked.

He turned around and faced her, his amber eyes looking at her blue ones seriously.

"So it was the whole break up thing." She said

Kenshin looked down but then turned his face to look at her "Hey I know what I did wrong and now I'm getting what I deserve, I'm getting my pay back for it." He growled at her.

'Why the hell does she have to bring that up anyway??'

Kaoru was interested in the conversation , it had been a long time since they had actually talked to each other, so she thought she would twist it a little and pick a good fight with him. She continued to taunt him.

"But... you still think that I belong to you, don't you. I'm not stupid, I saw the way you were watching me as I danced with Shinomori, you wanted to pounce on him at the moment."

"I would have if I wanted to, I could of sliced that bastard in two." He said coldly

"Don't start Kenshin, I know you were jealous, you have always been like that even when I'm with Sanosuke you looked at him like if you were gonna kill him sometimes, knowing he has a girlfriend."

"Well if I'm going through your damn privacy then don't bother trying to talk to me." He said

she gasped "What but..."

"I'm not stupid Kaoru, I saw how you were looking at me ." he grinned at her as he mimicked her same words.

"I'll have you know—"

He stopped her in mid sentence and covered her mouth with his hand. "If it has nothing to do with what were talking about, then I don't want to hear about it."

He removed his hand from her mouth and then no words were exchanged. They stayed staring at each other for a while until Kaoru broke the gaze, she looked away from him.

"Kenshin, I loved you very much, you knew that, but I guess what I had to offer wasn't enough for you...I-I-guess I didn't have what you wanted from me..."

"Kaoru..." he grabbed her chin and tilted her face up to his but then she looked away again.

"I better go..." she said as she turned her back to him and began to walk away.

"Kaoru." he said firmly

she stopped but her back still facing him.

"That's not true... you did have all I wanted, there's nothing that could change what happened between us that day..."

She cut him off , memories flodding her head as she desperately tried to get rid of them.

" I don't want to hear it. Cheating is something you can't ever forgive Kenshin... I've forgiven you too many times, for this one I won't... goodbye" she continued to walk her way until she reached the front door and closed it behind her...

Kenshin was starring at the floor, he looked up his eyes were amber a fourious amber... he wasn't mad at Kaoru for not forgiving him nor listening to him, he was mad at himself for doing the things he did before... hurting her... breaking her heart...

"ahhhhh!!!" he yelled and punched the nearest wall leaving a small crater in it. He continued to punch it many times in pure anger.

He had lost it.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

After what seemed a little while his apartment was destroyed, he knocked down and / or broke whatever was in his reach. Kenshin was in a corner of the living room with a bottle of sake in his hand. He looked drunk.

!!!

The front door opened and it was Sanosuke, he saw the mess in Kenshin's apartment.

"Oh no..." Sanosuke knew what this meant, Kenshin was drunk... but he only drank as much as to cause violence when he wanted to soothe his nerves. ' He never drinks this much... something must have happened to him.'

He walked through all the mess and found Kenshin ,in a corner of the room with a bottle of sake in his hand. Yep, no doubt at all that he was very drunk indeed.

"Kenshin? Kenshin are you okay? What the fuck happened?"

Kenshin looked up at Sanosuke " She's gone..."

"Who?" he said even though he had a feeling who he was talking about...

"Kaoru... Kaoru..."

"Oh I see..." he walked over to him "C'mon, lets get you to bed, you're very drunk." Sanosuke rested Kenshin's arm over his shoulders and Kenshin leaned on Sanosuke and Sanosuke carried him back to the room and lied him down. ' So it was that he had spoken to her... and it made him depressed.' He walked to the living room or what was left of it and he looked around, it looked like the only place he had destroyed was the living room the rest was just fine. He decided to help Kenshin by picking up some things there.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Kaoru had stormed out of his apartment and she walked home. She thought about what he said "you did have what I always wanted... nothing can change what happened between us that day..." those words repeated themselves in side her head over and over. she couldn't take it!

She got to her house and went to her room, she threw herself on the bed and stared up at the ceiling. The memories of the special moment they had flooding her head, Kaoru closed her eyes trying to get rid of it. ' I can't think about it, they break my heart, it hurts me to think that the man I love's heart is in pain also... because of what he did and because what is happening to him... no wait not just him... but us... what's happening to us...'

Soon after that she fell asleep.

~*~*~*~*~*~*

The next day...

Kenshin awoke in his bed with a terrible headache, probally because he got loaded with sake the day before and he already had a hang over so it was twice the pain. His world was spinning entirely, he didn't remember a single thing that happened to him. He looked around and saw Sanosuke walk by him

"You woke up, finally."

"What happened to me?"

"You got drunk again."

"Oh..." he said as he got out of bed and went to the kitchen. He noticed his living room was sort of a mess, 'looks like Sano had managed to pick up the most important things."

"I guess I went on a rampage and destroyed my living room..." He said sarcastically.

" Yep... I managed to pick up some things like the bookcase you knocked over...and put some things where they belonged."

"I appreciate that thank you." He said as he poured himself a glass of water and took two asprin from the cupboard.

"What happened?" he asked.

"..."

"C'mon tell me, even if you don't tell me what happened ill go ask Kaoru she'll tell me..."

"Fine." Kenshin took a sip of his water and put the asprin in his mouth and he swaloed it.

"Hey... while I was picking up I found this..." he pulled out a little velvet box from his pocket, and tossed it to him.

Kenshin looked at it, but said nothing.

"You were gonna ask her..."

"Yes, I didn't get the chance to, its too late anyway... she hates me."

Kenshin stuffed the box into his pocket and looked at the floor.

"Oh." he looked at his watch "I think I better get going Kenshin, I have to go met Megumi. I've been here all morning."

"alright sano, thank you." he said and watched Sano leave.

Kenshin looked at the velvet box then threw it in a corner of the living room.

' I'm going to have to move on in my life... now that she's gone... but I can't replace her... no one ever will...'

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

four days later...

Kaoru was packing his bags, he had booked a flight out of Japan and was going to Guam ( I've heard that its gorgeous over there perfect place to relax in I guarantee.) for a while, to clear his mind up. His flight leaves tonight at 8. Sanosuke was helping him pack his things for his trip.

"Kenshin are you sure you want to do this?" he asked uncertainly

"Yes. I need to leave this place"

"But are you coming back?"

"Maybe yes maybe no depends on what fate decides for me... I don't know if I should even comeback..."

" What about Kaoru... you still love her."

"Yes I do can't change that but how can I love someone who will never forgive me again. I'm not expecting her to forgive me but I need to move on. So does she."

He closed a suit case and placed it on the floor

"I'll be out for a while I need to go somewhere but I have a question."

"Yeah?"

"Does Kaoru know I'm leaving?"

"No."

"oh. I was curious that's all I'm leaving, I'll be back later Sano." He walked away leaving Sano behind him.

He was going to a spot he and Kaoru always went to. A place by the forest where there was a river and a cave and lots of trees. It was their private place. Theirs only.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Kaoru was in the kitchen washing the dishes. When the phone rang. She went over to pick it up.

"Hello Kaoru?"

"Yes who is this?"

"Its Megumi, hey what's up?"

"Oh hello, I'm fine how are you?"

"I'm okay I guess"

" so why are you calling?"

" I just wanted to see who you were doing, you know about you and—"

"Yes yes I know..."

" Are you okay?"

"No. I'm not... in fact I miss him Megumi I miss him a lot..."

"Oh I see. Well you should forgive him your heart wants to..."

" I guess your right..."

"Okay then so if you wanna talk to him you better find him before 8 o clock ok?"

"But why? What's going on?"

"Oh yeah you don't know... sano told me something about him and I should let you know."

"Know what?"

"He's leaving Japan for Guam tonight... and he might not come back again."

"What??" she practically yelled at her

"Yeah, he's packed his bags and is ready to go so--"

"I know megumi thank you for telling me I have to go. Goodbye and thank you."

She hung up on her.

' Lets just hope those two get back together, they're going crazy without each other."

~*~*~*~*******~*~*~*~

"Oceans apart... Day after day... And I slowly go insane...

I hear your voice on the line But it dosen't stop the pain

If I see you next to never How can we say forever

Where ever you go What ever you do I'll be right here waiting for you

What ever it takes Or how my heart breaks ill Be right here waiting for you.

I took for granted all the times That I thought would last some how I hear the laughter I taste the tears But I can't get near you now

Oh can't you see it baby You've got me goin' crazy...

Wherever you go What ever you do I'll be right here waiting for you

What ever it takes Or how my heart breaks I'll be right here waiting for you...

I wonder how we can survive This romance But in the end if I'm with you I'll take the chance...

Oh can't you see it baby You've got me goin' crazy...

Where ever you go What ever you do I'll be right here waiting for you

What ever it takes Or how my heart breaks I'll be right here waiting for you..."
