A/N Ok, it's his day off for this chapter and he well.....oh just read it, I don't wanna ruin the surprise for you all........

It was a Friday morning and a certain rooster-head was sleeping in as he had his day off (A/N remember he has Wednesdays and Fridays off?). 10 minutes later, he yawned and stretched before doing up his futon and heading over to the Kamiya dojo to have breakfast.

*At the Kamiya dojo*
Sano entered the compound of the Kamiya dojo and greeted the ex- assassin who was busy doing his most favourite hobby (A/N minna, you should know what it is by now). "Good morning to you too, Sano. Miss Kaoru is inside making breakfast, that she is," he replied with his famous rurouni smile. "NANI!? J-Jou-chan is making breakfast? But don't you know how bad her cooking is, you should've protested!" Said Sano who was busy panicking. Just then, Yahiko sat on the porch and said "G'morning Kenshin, rooster- head. Hey, where's busu? Usually she's out here before practice."

Sano walked over to Yahiko and said "Jou-chan's fixing us breakfast ya know, that's why she's not here. She's in the kitchen right now." "B- Busu's making breakfast!?" said Yahiko who was panicking as much as Sano was earlier. Kenshin nodded with a smile and said "Yes, she's making us breakfast that she is. Her cooking's not that bad, she's improving and that's good that it is." "Che, her cooking still sucks. Just admit it, you hate her cooking" replied Sano.

"Lunch is ready everyone!" Yelled Kaoru from the kitchen. "I'm gonna head over to the Akabeko to help Tae-san and have lunch there and to see Tsu..." Said Yahiko as he quickly shut his mouth when he almost blurted out the name of his crush. Sano smirked and said "Oh, I see! It's ok Yahiko- chan, there comes a time in everyone's life when they feel something for.....someone....." "DON'T CALL ME –CHAN, YOU ROOSTER HEAD!" Snapped back the little samurai.

Kaoru walked out of the kitchen and headed to the porch and then said "I told you all that lunch is ready! Come, let's eat." Kenshin replied with a smile," I'll be there in 2 minutes that I will, Miss Kaoru." Kaoru nodded at him and then was about to say something to Yahiko and Sano, but both of them said at the same time quickly, "We'llbeattheAakabekoandwe'llbebackat5,Ja!" (A/N If you don't know what they said, here's what it is: "We'll be at the Akabeko and we'll be back at 5, Ja!")

And with that, the two rushed off to the Akabeko as they didn't want to see an angry tanuki glaring at them with a bokken in her hand, getting ready to whack them up. Kaoru clenched her fist and said through her gritted teeth, "Mou, I'll kill those two as soon as they come back." Kenshin sweat dropped and said "Maa maa, Miss Kaoru. I think we should eat now that we should."

*On the way to the Akabeko*
"Hey! Are you the waiter that wears that girly apron who works as a waiter in the Akabeko!?" Yelled a middle-aged lady on the street. Yahiko sniggered as the whole street was filled with laughter. "Zanza is gay!" Yelled another woman with her son who was by her side singing "Zanza is a gay" continuously. Sano clenched his teeth and muttered "kuso." Yahiko then yelled out "Who knew that Zanza was straight from one point of his life! Now he's a gay, someone get him a kimono and apply some make-up for him!" Before Sano could protest, 10 young women dragged him to a beauty parlour and Yahiko including some other people followed them.

Inside the parlour, the women dressed him up in a kimono and applied some mae-up on him. He screamed for help as he tried to escape, but unfortunately they had chained him to the wall (A/N they sat on cushions, remember? They didn't have chairs then, so how can they chained him to the cushion........so please bear with the famous me, myself and I.....*bows down and begs for mercy*).

*After make-over*
"He looks so pretty!" squealed a young girl. "Che, can I go now! This thing about all you morons saying 'Zanza a gay' is really getting on my nerves! I had to wear that apron cos Tae-san forced me to!" Snapped Sano. "I don't think so; you're just too shy to admit it. It's alright, not everyone is perfect or straight as we say," replied an older girl. All of them giggled and then Yahiko said "We'd better be going now. Thanks for giving him a free make-over ladies. Come let's go, 'Sanasaka'!" Sano gritted his teeth and followed Yahiko out of the beauty parlour and then headed to the Akabeko for a late lunch after what had happened earlier.

*Later at 5*
Yahiko and a very pissed-off Sano finally arrived at the Kamiya dojo. "Tadaima, Kenshin and busu!" Yelled Yahiko from the gate. "Finally you're back, Yahiko-chan and Sa-Who are you?" Said Kaoru who was shocked as soon as she saw a tall lady in a red kimono with make-up. Yahiko sniggered and then whispered in Kaoru's ear "Busu, that's actually the rooster-head but just call him Sanasaka, I just made it up cos he's dressed up like a girl so we should give him a girl's name." Kaoru cracked up laughing and Yahiko joined in with her then said "Seriously! And the whole town think's he's gay!" Kaoru laughed even harder and then Sano yelled, "OI! I'M NOT GAY! THE WHOLE TOWN'S ACCUSING ME JUST B'COS I WAS WEARING THAT STUPID APRON TAE-SAN FORCED MET TO WEAR! And don't tell anyone about this, got it?"

Kaoru and Yahiko nodded before sniggering about it and then Yahiko told Kaoru about the whole fiasco. "Really? San- I mean Sanasaka actually bashed up almost all the men in town!? Oh my, he I mean SHE must've been pretty pissed off!" Yahiko replied "Yeah, SHE was very pissed off!" Just then, Kenshin sat on the porch and said "Oro? Miss Kaoru, we have a visitor that we do?" "Hai Kenshin. Her name's Sagara Sanasaka," replied Kaoru who was stifling a giggle.

"Che, you don't have to be so cruel jou-chan. Kenshin it's me Sano your buddy," Said Sano who was still very mad. "Oro? Sano, why are you dressed up like a lady that you are? Are you gay? Gee, no wonder you used that as an excuse when you were wearing that apron saying that Miss Tae forced you to wear it. It's alright if you're too shy to admit it, back in the Ishin Shishi there were some gays over there and sessha used to overhear them talking about gay syuff like you know...." Said Kenshin with an assuring smile.

"KUSO! FOR THE LAST TIME, I AM NOT GAY! WHAT ABOUT YOU AND YOUR LONG HAIR!" Yelled Sano while strangling Kenshin. "Oroooroooorooorooo! S- Sano, Sessha is very sorry f-for being mistaken that I am! And Sessha is not gay just b'cos of my long hair that I am not," replied a dizzy rurouni. "Sanosuke! Stop strangling Kenshin eitherwise you're going to get him killed!" Yelled Kaoru who was glaring at him with those eyes (A/N yes, the glare she gives everyone when she's real mad or as I like to say pissed off).

Sano dropped Kenshin and told him the whole story. After Sano had finished his dreadful story, Kenshin was laughing out so loud that tears came out and then Sano said "At least I have a faithful friend here who's crying for me cos of my pain. Yup, we'll be the best of friends forever buddy......Unlike those two." "Actually, sessha was laughing b'cos of what had happened today that I was Sano. Sessha is very sorry de gozaru yo," Kenshin replied before laughing out loud again, with Kaoru and Yahiko joining in.

"Che, life is so bad," muttered Sano while glaring at his 3 acquaintances who were busy laughing their heads off.
