Thank you Aoishi
I got my self back together. Back to reality and back to my place of just beautiful Aoishi.
I went to his dojo and ran in almost busting down his screen. He was in his bath robe and was just sitting on the floor looking outside. When he saw me, he just turned his head. I walked over and sat on the floor next to him putting my hand on his knee. He pulled away.
"If you're here for sex, I can't do it anymore. I am too tired of this." He remarked coldly.
I sat for a moment in regret, regret over everything I have done to him. Treating him like an object of lust, being so damn selfish.
"Aoishi . . . I am sorry" he looked at me, "what that you can't use me anymore. Even after I told you I loved you, so much." He got up and walked over outside. I followed him walking a little faster trying to catch up with him, and when I did . . . I pulled him around and kissed him.
I didn't know any other way to do it. He stood there for a moment melted into my kiss, and I was just in heaven. But then he pulled away. I embraced him and looked into his eyes. Then mouthed the three words he wanted to hear, the three words I wanted to say. He looked at me confused, and then I said it aloud to him.
"I love you Aoishi. I love you so much." He was at an utter loss of words he couldn't move until I kissed him again and I felt his knees give out on him. We sank to the ground together and I just sat with him embraced in my arms. "I am so sorry, but I was so confused. I loved you this whole time . . . but never knew it. I treated you so badly and will understand if you don't want to forgive me, but I will not let you go." He looked up at me his face flushed. He reached out his hand and cupped my face, before he kissed me again "it will take you some time to make up for all of this . . . " he said to me in between our heated kiss " . . . but I will make sure we do things right this time."
We went back into the dojo, and I spent hours trying to make it up to him, in every pleasurable way possible. We lay embraced in each others arms after, nude, tired, in love. I pulled my head up from his chest and kissed him. "I can't imagine any other place I would want to be at this very moment." He smiled at me that smiles that always made me melt and I fell asleep.
I hadn't made it back to my dojo in a while, but I didn't care. I and Aoishi went back down to the hot springs to bath, but we ended up making love. I sat on him kissing his lips feeling nothing but him, until I heard a small little voice speak my name. I looked up from Aoishi not taking my mouth away, and saw Kenshin standing there in shock. I pulled up from Aoishi, but that was when he ran off. I got out and pulled my pants on and ran after him.
"Kenshin! ..." I called out his name and caught up with him. "What was that Sano?! ..." he screamed at me. I was confused. I would have thought it wouldn't bother Kenshin, but then he said it. "I thought you loved me?" I was shocked. How dare he know I loved him, never return my love and then say something so horrible when I finally find my true love? "You're my best friend . . . " he said through tear drenched eyes. I finally understood, he was jealous like I was. Of losing me, his best friend to my lover. I hugged him and looked down "I love you Kenshin." As I said that I looked up and saw Aoishi walk away out of the corner of my eye. I felt ill, but he was misled. I looked down at Kenshin " I do love you Kenshin, but only as my friend. I will always be there for you as a friend, as Saito is there for you as a lover, like Aoishi is there for me." Kenshin looked up at me with a smile. "I am sorry I acted so selfish, but I just don't want to loose you." I smiled "you won't I just need to be with Aoishi, I will be back home soon."
As I saw Kenshin off, I thought about what I would say to Aoishi. I hoped I didn't ruin the heaven I had just achieved. I walked to the dojo and found him sitting on the porch. I walked over and kneeled in front of him leaning my arms on his knees.
He looked down at me and smiled, I was confused he wasn't angry, he was smiling. He lifted me up and kissed me. "I thought you were angry?" I said. He smiled again "about what?" he pulled me between his legs. "I know you love me. I know you only love Kenshin as your friend and I know that is how Kenshin only loves you. He was just jealous his best friend was spending so much time with another man." I smiled at him. I loved him. He was so wise, "and I know that is how you felt about Kenshin" he sighed. I sighed as well and pushed him on his back wanting to finish what I had started.
I had been through so many confusing emotions. I thought I was in love with Kenshin, turned to Aoishi for comfort, fell in love with him and realized I never loved Kenshin. Aoishi made so many things so clear for me. He was the one that taught me what real love is. I couldn't be more happy. Thank you Aoishi for making things so clear, thank you for treating my body so kindly, and thank you for being my angel.
