"Alright," Kenshin agreed, "but if I win, I will have Kaoru's hand in marriage!"
Kaoru gasped. She never expected this. She didn't even anticipate this. "Why is he doing this?" she asked herself, "is it because of.?"
"Ehhh?" Sano commented, but he didn't bother to ask Kenshin, why he was challenging him, just for Kaoru's hand in marriage? It wasn't as if he liked Kaoru in any way. "But, what the heck," Sano thought, "as long as I can have the pleasure of beating Kenshin, details don't matter to me."
"Whatever," Sano replied as he snickered, "as long as you keep your end of the bargain, you can have her.if you beat me of course."
"What am I getting myself into?" Kenshin thought, "at swordplay, I still have a chance, but SAKE??? No way I'll be able to beat him. but Kaoru."
"It's settled then," he continued, "tomorrow, at high noon, we'll settle this, once and for all."
~ o0o ~
"No!" Kaoru thought, "he's going to lose. There's no way he can win, especially since, Sano has high tolerance for sake. I can't bear this."
It had been hours since Kenshin had challenged Sano, but up until now, she can't forget about it. Nor, does her mind permit her, to forget about it so easily.
"He doesn't have to prove to me anything at all," she thought, "he already knows I love him, so why is he still doing this.?"
~ o0o ~
Sano lay awake that night, unable to sleep. "How I envy Kaoru." Sano thought painfully, "Kenshin loves her so much. Unlike me, he sees nothing past our friendship, I love him too you know, maybe even more than Kaoru does, yet he only sees me as a friend, nothing more."
Hot tears streamed down his cheeks as he accepted reality. "Unlike Kaoru, I can never have him, ever. But once he's my slave.nothing will stop me, from baring to him my love for him."
~ o0o ~
Kaoru gave a soft knock on his door. A muffled voice came from inside the room. "I guess I'm not welcome," she thought as she turned away with sadness in her eyes.
"Kaoru," Kenshin called as he slid open the door, "what's the matter?"
"Kenshin, can we. can we. talk?" she stammered, as she felt her face flush. "Baka, why do I always stammer every time I see him.?"
"Sure. come in," he invited her.
"Kenshin," she whispered, "I was just wondering, please understand, that, I just want to know, but, why do still want to compete with Sano, just to marry me. You could've just asked me if I would accept your proposal, you didn't have to involve."
But her sentence was cut short, for Kenshin had devoured her lips and pulled her into a passionate kiss. At first, Kaoru was so shocked, yet, when she felt his lips melt into hers, it seemed as if the world around her washed away. She fell limp and let Kenshin explore her mouth, his tongue playing with hers.
Kaoru felt a chill go down her spine as Kenshin slid his hand down her back. "I love you," he whispered as his lips slid down to plant kisses on her neck. Kaoru couldn't help but let out a moan of pleasure. "I love you, too" she confessed.
As Kaoru began to explore his bare chest, Kenshin, suddenly, pulled away from her with a sad look in her eyes.
"What's wrong?" Kaoru asked, confused.
"This.you and me, this is wrong." he replied as he felt guilt wash over him, "how can I love you. when I know that you love Sano too."
