A/N: To say the least, this is a weird little thing I wrote in class one day when my teacher was talking about...something. ^^;
As for the rating...you'll see why when you read it!
Eavesdropping
By Boomerang-chan
It was a gorgeous day at the Kamiya dojo. The sky was a pastel light blue, wisps of cottony clouds scattered about, caring to stay away from the sun's smoldering golden visage.
The tall form of Sanosuke Sagara ambled in, fists jammed into the pockets of his white pants. He'd been out all last night, and ended up losing his remaining money to the dice. Again. Frustrated, he had been drinking and out of consideration, despite his muddled state, had been able to drag himself over to his shack for the remainder of the evening.
Customary to any habitual day, Kenshin was doing the laundry quiet and happy by himself. Yahiko, not too far off was practicing his kata.
A typical day at the Kamiya dojo...
Or so he thought.
Upon entering, he noticed Aoshi who was sitting, probably meditating, silent as cool as ever.
'Chuh, if he's here, it could only mean the little itachi girl dragged him along.' A chibi version of Makimachi Misao popped into his head, screaming, 'I'm not a weasel you baka rooster!'
As if to confirm his suspicions, from the room that Aoshi was sitting outside from, he heard her voice blurt out unexpectedly.
"NO WAY! Lord Aoshi's are better than either of theirs!" The man of her affection did not seem to be affected by the outburst, or he simply ignored it. Sano would have sweatdropped.
Yahiko padded in right then, shinai balanced on one of his shoulders.
"Weasel girl, Megumi, and Aoshi came to visit," he stated simply.
*``````*
"OHOHOHOHOHO! What are you talking about? Sanosuke's was much larger than his!" Megumi's voice chimed.
"Like you would know, Megumi!" Kaoru retorted.
*``````*
Outside, Sano resisted the urge to gasp and Yahiko bit his lip, appearing to be stifling a fit of laughter. Sending a warning glare to the spiky-haired boy, Sano pressed his ear closer to the shoji door, holding his breath.
*``````*
"Lord Aoshi's is still the best!" Misao piped eagerly.
There was a very audible snort here and the sound of strangling, probably Misao to the one that has made the offensive sound.
"Aoshi's still aren't as long as Kenshin's!" Kaoru argued.
"But Sano's," Megumi reasoned, "is so much larger than Ken-san's! It probably couldn't fit in a room, let alone a house!"
*``````*
Sano's eyes bulged, until they almost seemed that they would pop right out of his face. His head was beginning to steam, and he was sure it would burn through the thin screen door.
Meanwhile, Kenshin had looked up from his laundry, noting the change of atmosphere in the area. Things were much to quiet...and considering Sano and Yahiko were there...this silence wasn't good.
Leaving his laundry to sit cold and untouched, the red head rurouni walked into the house. His violet eyes blinked upon seeing Yahiko and Sano pressed close to the shoji door where the girls' voices emitted from. Aoshi was still by himself, eyes closed and still deeply immersed in his mind.
*``````*
"...You're exaggerating Megumi!"
"He's tall, so he can probably handle something that humongous."
"Yeah, but I bet Himura couldn't!"
"He so could, Misao!"
"Ohohoho! He may be strong and all, but he's too short! He'd probably topple over from the weight!"
*``````*
"Oro."
Kenshin almost fell over, but not from *that*, from the surprising things the girls were discussing. Yahiko and Sano whirled around, sending him a warning look to keep quiet.
Rubbing the back of his head sheepishly, Kenshin stood to join them in their eavesdropping.
*``````*
"Hah! Aoshi-sama has two!" Misao cried out smugly.
"Hmph, but he used to only have one," Kaoru quipped back.
"But neither of theirs is as gigantic as Sanosuke's." Megumi said in an I-am-so-right,-let's-end-this-already-voice.
"True...." Kaoru began softly, "But Kenshin is much more experienced than either of them..."
*``````*
"OROOO!"
WONK
WHAP
Kenshin tumbled over when Sano's fist and Yahiko's wooden sword pummeled on the opposite sides of his head. Muttering an undistinguishable 'oro', Kenshin lay sprawled on the floor, eyes swirling.
"Hey, what was that?" Misao queried suspiciously. Megumi's elegant hands slid open the shoji door.
The fox doctor's head popped out from the room, kendo teacher beneath hers, and genki ninja beneath hers.
"What's wrong with you guys?" Kaoru asked, noting the blushing sheepish looks on their faces, well, Sano's and Yahiko's since Kenshin was still on the ground, though slowly regaining consciousness.
"W—were you guys talking about..." Sano trailed off.
An evil glint sparked in Megumi's eyes. She burst out laughing. "Ohohohoho! I see!"
"Huh?" Misao and Kaoru chimed at the same time, not knowing what the freeloader was thinking.
"We were comparing Kenshin's, Aoshi-sama's, and Sano's different types of swords," Misao chirped obliviously.
"Y—you were?!" stammered Yahiko.
Kaoru snorted. "Yeah, what else did you think we would be talking abou—HEY! YOU STUPID PERVERTS!!!!"
A furious Kaoru dashed after Yahiko and Sano, brandishing her bokken fiercely.
Misao blinked, then turned to Megumi. "What's going on Megumi?"
Megumi sighed at her naiveté, "They thought they were talking about it," she merely replied.
Misao's mouth formed into an 'o', then realization struck her like a thunderbolt. "EEEEEW! THOSE MORONS!"
And Misao joined Kaoru, bokkens and kunais poised to do some serious damage. Megumi, too refined for running around merely watched in amusement. A confused Kenshin got up sooner or later, deciding not to get in between the squabble going on to return to his beloved laundry, still thinking Kaoru was not as innocent as he thought.
Meanwhile, Aoshi remained sitting alone deep in mediation.

End Notes: LOL! This was a ton of fun to write! XD If you don't get this, well, then, uh, you've got a really, super squeaky clean mind!!! This is just a silly little story I came up with (compared to the dark poetry I write. O_O) so it's nothing to take serious... I'm posting another one-shot, a more serious, probably next week.
