Disclaimer: I do not own Kenshin!

Chapter 1: Blissful Night

Kaoru couldn't believe that this was happening she had dreamed about this but had never thought it would happen. The day he had left for Kyoto had crushed her. Kaoru had taken a chance and had told Kenshin she loved him. Kenshin at first had told her that he was unworthy of her love.

"I love you Kenshin I always have."

"But Miss. Kaoru I am not a man worthy of your love."

This had pissed Kaoru off, "WHAT YOU HAVE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME!"

"Oro. Miss Kaoru please calm down it is not good for you to be so mad."

Kaoru couldn't stand to look at Kenshin any more his lips were driving her crazy. All she could think about was how it would feel to have him press his lips against hers. Kenshin was so close to her it was making her dizzy.

"Kenshin I."

She then found herself pressing her lips against his in a passionate kiss. At first Kenshin was surprised by the kiss. After a few minutes he relaxed and let himself be pulled into the kiss as well. Kaoru grew surprised as Kenshin kissed her back. The passion that she was feeling was almost unbearable.

Kaoru then let her hand wander underneath of Kenshin's gi, Kenshin's eyes widened in surprise as he felt Kaoru's right hand running across his chest under his gi. Kenshin couldn't help the heat that flushed to his cheeks.

"Miss. Kaoru I don't think we should.."

Kenshin's words were cut short as he glazed into Kaoru's sapphire eyes. There was so much burning inside them. He took in a breath as Kaoru started to untie his magenta gi. Kenshin soon found himself dizzy with desire every inch of him want to be with Kaoru. However he was afraid that if he touched her in such away that he would taint her.

As Kaoru looked into Kenshin perfect amethyst eyes she then let her hands slide away from Kenshin's gi. A small sigh as she looked away from him, she had been so foolish.

'Just great Kaoru now the only man you have ever loved will never want to look at you again.'

"I'm sorry Kenshin I've made you uncomfortable."

Kaoru slowly rose from Kenshin's futon and made her way to the door. As she was sliding it closed she spoke softly to Kenshin almost in a whisper.

"Good night Kenshin, I....I love you."

After sliding the door softly to a close Kaoru ran to her room in tears. How could shehave been so foolish, she had been sure that Kenshin had true feelings for her? Kaoru then lifted her fingers to her lips, which were swollen and warm from their passionate kiss.

Sanosuke watched as Kaoru ran down the hallway to her room. That's when Sano realized that Kaoru had come out of Kenshin's room. Sanosuke stopped in front of Kaoru's door. From inside he heard the sound of muffled cries. Cries Kaoru was crying?

Kenshin sat on his futon his eyes unmoving from the door. That's when Kenshin realized that Sanosuke was standing in his room.

"Sano?"

"Now what did you do this time?"

Kenshin swallowed hard as his looked up at Sanosuke. The next thing Kenshin saw was stars. @-@ Sanosuke pounded Kenshin on the top of his head. Kenshin then rubbed his head.

"What was that for?"

"That was for making the little missy cry."

Kenshin gasp 'Miss Kaoru is crying? I never meant to hurt her like that. That I did not."

Kenshin then stood and walked passed Sanosuke and made his way down the hallway. Once he reached the door to her room, he knocked softly then spoke to her.

"Miss Kaoru may I come in?"

Kaoru gasped when she heard Kenshin voice outside. She quickly wiped at the tears in her eyes. She cursed at herself when she realized what a messed she had to look. There was nothing she could do now. She laid back down on her futon before she answered Kenshin.

"Come in."

Kenshin pulled in a breath as he reached for the door.

'Sessha believes that it is time that sessha stops begin afraid and just tell Kaoru that you love her.'

Kenshin slid the door open and made his way inside. Where he could see Kaoru form laying on her futon. He slid the door closed behind him, then made his way to Kaoru. For a while Kenshin just stood there looking at her, he then knelt down beside her.

"Miss Kaoru, sessha believes he needs to explain himself that is if Miss Kaoru is willing to listen to him?"

Kaoru slowly sat up and looked at Kenshin. Kenshin's very soul ached when he saw Kaoru's tear streaked face. He slowly reached his hands up to Kaoru's face to wipe the tears away that were rolling down her face.

"I never wanted to hurt you Kaoru. It is for that very reason that I was afraid to show you my true feelings."

Kaoru smiled lightly at him. "Oh Kenshin, you are always trying to protect me. I only wish that you would let me in. I love you Kenshin."

Kenshin smiled at Kaoru, "I love you too Miss Kaoru that I do I was just afraid to tell you."

"Kenshin."

Kenshin's amethyst eyes burned in to Kaoru's sapphire ones. They both sat there for a minute just looking at each other. Kenshin then spoke to Kaoru breaking into the stillness of the night.

"Miss Kaoru? Are you sure that this is something you want? For once it is done there is no going back. I do not want this to be something that you will regret. That I do not."

Kaoru reached out and pulled Kenshin into a hug.

"Oh Kenshin, I could never regret being with you."

Kaoru quickly placed her lips to Kenshin's. Kaoru then started to untie her yukata, but then she stopped as Kenshin placed his hands over hers. He then finished untying the yukata. Kenshin then felt one of Kaoru's hands slid over his chest.
"Miss Kaoru I have always thought that you were beautiful and it would seem that the moon agrees with me tonight."

Kenshin lowered Kaoru down to the futon as he kissed her lips. He nibbled her neck lightly. Kaoru watched as he moved his lips to the tops of each one of her breasts kissing them. Kenshin had slid his body on top or Kaoru's molding her to him. As Kaoru looked in to his eyes she could see a desire burning within them; Kaoru soon found Kenshin's lips pressing firmly but gently on to hers.

Kenshin's hands slid down Kaoru flat stomach. He then spoke to Kaoru his voice was husky and so full of passion he almost did recognize that it was his.

"Miss Kaoru, I have always wanted to be with you. I never imaged that I could ever feel the bliss that I am feeling now within your arms."

Kaoru blushed lightly at Kenshin.

"Kenshin, I feel the same way. I felt so alone when mother and father died. Then you came into my life and I was no longer alone, I had you Kenshin."

Kaoru's hands ran through Kenshin's hair pulling it free from its tie. They both panted. As they pulled away from the kiss that had melted them together, Kaoru then nestled her head against Kenshin's chest. Kenshin glazed down at Kaoru and smiled, he then brushed as fallen lock over hair away from her face. Kenshin then noticed that her breathing had slowed and that she was now asleep.

Kenshin let a content sigh escape from him as he gazed down at Kaoru. He then brush her bangs away from her face and kissed her forehead. He then felt himself falling into a content sleep.

Kenshin awoke the next morning to the sun shining in his face. His left hand still lay protectively over Kaoru. Last night would be a night he would forever hold in his heart as a blissful night.
