~Later~ (Read chapter 2 for more info on how ken confessed to Kaoru)
Everyone had dinner and was going to bed. They had talked about what happened in the forest and the shock of Megumi, Sano, and Yahiko finding them kissing. It was an evening that was full of happiness. Kenshin and Kaoru had been kissing a lot that night after dinner. It was very late and everyone was asleep. Kenshin had been thinking in the dojo as he does basically every night. He was walking back to his room and stopped by Kaoru's room and looked in and gasped at what he saw. She wasn't there! Kenshin started panicking and started running towards outside when he sighed in relief. She was sitting there on the edge of the dojo staring at the stars. Her hair flowing down her back while she leaned on her elbows. Her yukata was open just a bit too much for Kenshin's comfort. " Kaoru? What are you doing up? It's very late." Kaoru sat up at looked at Kenshin before he sat down beside her and wrapped his arms around her. " I couldn't sleep. Sitting here relaxes me. My father used to sit here with me and wrap his arms around me, just like you are doing, and I would always get tired." " Do you miss your father Kaoru?" " Yes, very much." A tear started forming in her eyes. Kenshin noticed and kissed her lightly and sweet on the lips.
" I'm sure he was a great man." " He was." Kaoru couldn't hold it anymore and hugged Kenshin very tightly and started crying into his chest. He held her and rocked back and forth. Kenshin couldn't believe how strong she was, holding in the death of her father. He knew that she needed to let it all out.
" Don't worry anymore, I am sure that he would be very proud of you now. And I am here to protect you."
" Thank you Kenshin." Kenshin nodded and kissed her soft and sweet. While Kenshin had been thinking in the dojo, he had been thinking of proposing to Kaoru. He wanted to be by her side forever. He had been thinking of it since the end of Shishio. He had even gotten the ring. All he needed was the right moment.
Tonight was the right moment. " Kaoru, I'll be right back, I have to go the bathroom."
"Oh.ok."
Kenshin instead of going to the outhouse he went to his room and into the closet to get the ring.
He returned to Kaoru and put the box in his sleeve. " I'm back." He sat down again and hugged Kaoru, kissing her forehead. Kaoru laid her head against his chest and they both stared up at the stars, when Kenshin made his propose.
" Kaoru, I have something to ask you." He got up from his position and kneeled in front of Kaoru. " I love you and I could never live without you and I want to be by your side forever and ever. I want to eat with you, sleep with you, and even bathe with you. I need you more than anything in the world. Kamiya Kaoru, it would be a great honor to me if you would be my wife. Will you marry me?"
Kaoru eyes were wide and her heart was beating very fast. Kenshin stood up and stared into her eyes. Kaoru put on a smile and decided to trick the rurouni.
" Well, Kenshin, I kind of have to think about it." Kenshin was torn into pieces.
" How long will that take?" Kaoru grinned. " About 5 seconds, 5,4,3,2,1! Yes!!!! Of course I would! How can I say no!?" Kaoru jumped into Kenshin's arms and they kissed and kissed. Kenshin twirled her around as he held her like a doll. They both laughed and had smiles on their faces.
Kenshin finally put her down and brought out the ring and put it on her ring finger. Kaoru looked at the ring and Kenshin gave her a long, hard, passionate kiss.
Little did they know that Sano and Yahiko were watching them the whole time because all the laughter woke them up.
Yahiko couldn't stand all the kissing. " Ahem."
The two love birds froze in their kiss and finally broke their heads away from each other and looked toward the 'ahem', but still had their arms around each other.
" Yahiko? Sano? What are you two doing up?" They said together. Sano answered, " Well, we both woke up when we heard a lot of laughing and talking. We came out to see who it was and we see you two. Kenshin twirling around and then getting all mushy. But I do have to say that I am happy that you two are happy."
Yahiko noticed the ring on Kaoru's finger when they both came out of their hug.
" So busu, are you finally going to get married?" " Yep, I am! So you'll probably be seeing a lot of mushy stuff in the future! Muahahahahaha!"
Sano also heard this and got scared with Yahiko, they both started running down the dojo to their rooms yelling.
Kenshin and Kaoru giggled then looked at each other in the eyes. " Kaoru, I love you so much."
" I love you too my laundry man." Kenshin laughed at himself being called a laundry man. He then leaned his head down and kissed her once more for the night.
" Kenshin?" Kaoru asked stopping the kiss. " Hmmmm?"
" Can we go to bed now?" " Can I sleep in your arms if we go to bed now?" Kenshin liked being able to talk and not be shy about it.
" Yes Kenshin, you can. But if you pull a move you are seeping in your own room till we get married! Got that?"
" Yes Kaoru, I jus want to sleep by your side. But after the wedding," Kenshin's voice got a very deep and sexy tone as he whispered into her ear, " I'll be pulling every trick in the book."
Kaoru laughed and playfully hit him in the arm. They finally walked into Kaoru's room and when they both were nice and comfy Kenshin had to ask, " Kaoru?"
" Yes?" " How are we going to tell everyone else that we are getting married?" " Kenshin?" "Yes?" " Shut up and go to sleep."
AN: Yay!!!!!!!!!I finally finished!!!!!! But I do have a challenge for all you people! If you can guess how old I am .I'll give you a cookie! Well, sort of, if I get enough reviews I'll write Kenshin and Kaoru's wedding. Do you want that? Review then! And whoever guesses closest to my age will be in the thank you's for the wedding chapter.but that's only if you review!! Thanx for reading!!
