The Game of Love

Chapter 1: Life

Kaoru folded up her paperwork. Finally after all this time, she was going to sing again!!!

"Mom?" Kenji asked as he suddenly came into the room.

"Nani Kenji?" Kaoru asked and she had a big smile on her face. Kenji looked at her. He was fourteen now and his mother was only twenty nine and his father, well he was thirty.

"I'm going to go out and play with Yahiko, ok?" Kenji asked and Kaoru nodded. She was the youngest woman in town who was a mother. Kenshin was the youngest dad. She was only fifteen when she had Kenji. Kenshin slowly walked into their room.

"Kenshin, do you not want me to sing?" Kaoru asked

"No, I want you to sing, me and Kenji will be cheering you on always!!" Kenshin said and then kissed her on the cheek. Kaoru smiled at him and packed her bags. She was going away on tour. She hated leaving her family that she had just gotten back, but if she really wanted this job, then she had to leave once and a while. Kenji had gotten us to Kenshin and now referred to him as dad, as before he called him merely by 'Kenshin'. Seta was going to come here and pick her up to take her to the airport. It wasn't like she was going to travel alone, Misao was going to come with her and so was Seta.

"Do you want me to stay here and take care of you and Kenji?" Kaoru joked

"I can take perfectly fine care of myself, thank you very much!!!" Kenshin said and started tickling Kaoru and Kaoru tickled him back, until finally they were falling on the ground laughing.

"Okay, okay!!!! I give up!!!!" Kaoru said and got up. She sighed. Kenji was gone still most of the day and Kenshin was gone mot of the day too. Well at least they would have fun together!!!! They would have bonding time. Kenji walked into the room with his friend Yahiko.

"So, Yahiko how have you and Tsubame been?" Kaoru asked and brushed herself off.

"Oh, she's okay" Yahiko said and blushed.

"That's great!!!! I haven't yet heard about your girlfriend Kenji!!!! Tell your mother about her before she leaves!!!!" Kaoru said and looked at Kenji's blush. It was a dark red.

"Well..... She's um nice and pretty...... She has brown hair and brown eyes...... and that's it" Kenji said and blushed even more.

"She seems to be nice" Kenshin said

"Yes, I think she sounds pretty too!!!!" Kaoru said and smiled. Then the doorbell rang. Kaoru rushed to the door. She knew it was time to leave her family. She opened the door only to find Misao by the door.

"Hey Kaoru!!!! Time to go!!!!" Misao said

"Great, I'll just get my stuff" Kaoru said and rushed back to her room. She grabbed up her bags and then looked at her family and Yahiko.

"I'm going to miss you guys a lot!!!!" Kaoru said and put down her bags to hug Kenji.

"Kenji, be good for your dad okay?" Kaoru asked

"Whatever you say mom!!" Kenji said and let go of his mother. Kaoru hugged Kenshin and kissed him lightly before letting go and then picking up her bags and closing the door behind her. That was the last time Kenshin saw Kaoru for five long years. For Kenji, his story is different..... So let's see what happen to Kenji and his dad.....

A/N: Sorry for any mix ups. Kaoru is really twenty nine and Kenshin is thirty. Please review and tell me if you like it ok?
