can kill me later- k?
Chapter 12: Clearing up the Obvious
"What happened to her, Sir-Ken?" I heard a voice say.
I attempted to open my eyes, but it was too bright for my unadjusted eyes. I closed them again.
"I do believe she fainted in the middle of our meeting- is she alright Miss Megumi?"
"She'll be fine. Just give her a few minutes to recover."
"That's good." I heard Koaru say.
I groaned. My head hurt. As I sat up a wet cloth slid off my forehead where it must have been sitting a minute before. What happened? Did I really black out in the middle of a meeting? That's right- I was in a meeting with Kenshin and we were talking, but I can't remember what happened after that. I must have passed out from the strain of the meeting. I'd have to be more careful in the future.
I got out of bed. The others must have brought me upstairs while I was blacked out. I walked down the stairs.
"So you're finally up." I heard Gwen say.
"Yeah..." My head still hurt.
"I walked to the little grocery store down the road and picked up a few things."
"What kind of things?" I asked as I walked into the kitchen and opened the fridge. "Eggs??? You bought eggs???"
"They were on sale." She said calmly.
"But three dozen?"
"Three? I could have sworn I bought four."
I pulled out a carton and saw another one behind it. "You did." -_-
"I thought so."
I opened the pantry to see if we had anything to make dinner with.
O_____O
"Oh yeah, I bought some flour and sugar too."
"B- b- but- but there are BAGS of sugar and flour here!"
"So what are we going to do with all this flour, sugar, eggs, and baking soda?" She grinned mischievously.
"Baking soda?"
"Yeah, I bought some of that too. And chocolate chips."
-_- "You know, if you wanted to make cookies you could have just asked."
She grinned.
"Baka."
"What?"
I took out the mixer. "Get out of here before I kill you."
^-^"OK" She said as she practically skipped out of the kitchen.
(P.O.V. Change)
(Kaoru's point of view)
(In the other room with everyone else)
(Enough parentheses already)
Kenshin has been quiet lately. I wonder what Leslie and him talked about in their session. Wait- did he just look over at me?
(Back to normal P.O.V.)
I was just finished getting out materials when Kaoru walked in.
"Hey. I was just making cookies, you want to help?"
"Sure." She replied. "I've never made them before but if you show me how I'll help.
"Alright." I showed her the materials I had set out on the counter. "First you add a cup of water to the mixing bowl.
~Later~
"Well they're done." I said as I pulled out the tray from the oven.
"Okay, how long until they cool down?"
"Only about. Um. I forget but we'll set them for a few minutes."
"Do you think the others will like them?" she asked me.
"Of course. I make these cookies every once and a while for Gwen and she seems to like them."
While we waited for the cookies to cool we put away the extra eggs and stuff.
"Okay, lets go have the others try them." I said. I slid them onto a plate and we went to the other room where Gwen was failing miserably to teach everyone to play the board game life.
Sano looked up and saw the plate of cookies Kaoru was holding. "Uh oh. it looks like the little missy hasn't given up on cooking after all.."
"I'll have you know me and Leslie worked hard on these." Kaoru said as she tried hard not to loose her temper with Sano.
Yahiko sighed. "Kaoru, face it. You can't cook. Give up already."
Kaoru's eye twitched slightly as she glared at Yahiko.
".besides, we're tired of eating your experiments." Sano finished for Yahiko.
Kaoru gave both Yahiko and Sano death glares that made them freeze. "Her Kenshin, you try one."
