Disclaimers: I dont own RK. although how much i do want ken-san n sano-san.
Megumi entered the Kamiya Dojo silently.
Asleep again, ne? Nothing changes, baka.
She thought as she gave the snoring Sanosuke a glance... but this was not the reason she was here.
Heading towards the splash of running water, she saw him working his way through a huge pile of laundry.
Tanuki girl is out, ne, Ken-san... you would do anything for her, would you?
Bitterly, she smiled as she leaned against the post, hidden from view.
Would do anything... if... if... things were different... anyway, I know I will never be in his heart, demo... if I hope... if...
"Megumi-dono, Konnichiwa." His gentle voice shook her out of her train of thoughts. Looking down to him, she smiled and bowed. "Konnichiwa, Ken-san."
"You came just in time. Lunch is ready and Kaoru-dono and Yahiko should be coming home by now. Can you please wake Sanosuke up?"
"Anything." For you. She added silently as she watched him turn his back, clear up the laundry and putting everything neatly away before heading for the kitchen to check on the lunch.
For you.
And when to the other side, her hand in ready position.
Yelps filled the air soon after.
"ITAI! Kitsune, that hurt!!"
"That woke you up, didn't it?" She said, brushing her hands.
"Taidama!!" A cheery voice sounded through the dojo yard, with a very worn out Yahiko trailing behind.
"Okaeri nasai, Kaoru-dono." Kenshin suddenly appeared to greet her. "Lunch is ready, minna-san."
"Yatta!!" Both Tokyo samurai and the street fighter ran in great big steps towards the dining room.
"Mou... all they ever to do is to eat eat eat!" Kaoru complained. "And all I do is to work work work to feed those two big mouths... plus you." Pointing a finger at Kenshin.
"Oro?!"
Megumi watched them as they argued meaninglessly.
If...
Crushing down the all familiar jealousy and envy, she turned her back and headed to the kitchen, but not without saying.
"If you two are going to stand there all day, the food's going down to the two pigs in the kitchen..."
"NANI, KITSUNE?!" A roar of anger sounded.
And the chaos continued.
"Oro..."

"It's all done, master." The old man bowed.
In the huge room, dimly lit, a figure of man stood with a proud back.
"Thank you. You may go. Please inform otousama that I will meet him later."
"Hai." And bowed again, he exited the room, closing the giant wooden doors with a click.
I will find you.
We made a promise, ne?
I will find you, till the end of the world.
Because I still love you.
He closed his eyes, an image filled his entire mind.
Because of you.

Kaoru rummaged through the store.
"Where is it where is it where is it?!" Frustrated, she started throwing everything out. Coughing as the dust started to surround her, she stopped.
"Where the hell it went? I KNEW I put it somewhere here... where is it?" Scanning the small enclosed area, she tried to remember.
"Ano... Kaoru-dono? What are you doing de gonzaru?" A perplexed Kenshin appeared at the doorway, arms full of clean laundry.
"Iie... daijubou... I can handle on my own... and I'll clean up the mess... don't worry." A gleam started in her eyes. If I don't find it NOW, it'll be never and I can never face anyone again!! Pulling back her sleeves, she started digging once more.
Kenshin leaped out of the way just in time. It is not a very good time to hang around with her...
---
"YATTA!! FOUND IT!!" Kaoru's happy scream filled the house. Clutching some very dusty and old books, she danced around.
"What happened to Jou-chan?" Sanosuke asked Yahiko from a far end, he didn't want to risk it being tossed around by her when she's in this mood.
"Who knows?"
Kenshin could see as his vision was blocked by another huge pile of laundry.
"This is definitely not my day... I'll never leave laundry lying around again after a fight."
"Do you want my help?" Megumi offered. "Since tanuki's too busy with her own stuff..." Jabbing her finger at the crazy girl.
"Arigatou gonzaimasu, Megumi-dono..." And handed her half the pile of the laundry.
There was a knock on the door.
"Ano..."
Everyone looked at the man at the doorway.
"Sorry to intrude..." And he entered, bowing politely first before stepping in. "Is there a Kamiya Kaoru here?"
"I am..." Kaoru placed the books down, dusted herself and greeted the man.
"I'm here to deliver a message... that Niimi Keitaro is here."
Time seem to stop, as Kaoru registered the name in her mind.
A cold hand seem to grabbed her heart, before anger filled her.
"KEITARO?!"
