Kaoru and Naoko were sitting on The futon in Kaoru's room. It was midnight and everyone else had gone to sleep. Over the past year Naoko had been abused by her husband. It had been arranged by her parents who were led to believe Okita was a very nice boy, Yeah right. Naoko knew he was cheating on her but everytime she even thought about leaving she would be punched kicked and threw. Finally she had just givin up fighting and thinking altogether and just lived day to day, cleaning cooking and shopping. Okita was a good business man so they were quite wealthy but that didn't change the fact that she had been physically and emotionaly abused. Kaoru had decided that naoko wasn't ever going home and that she was just going to live at the dojo with them but Naoko was a little reluctent to do this. She feared that Okita would come and hurt her and the rest of the people that lived at the dojo. That was until Kaoru "accidently" let it slip that Kenshin was the ex hitokiri battousai. Now they were talking wedding plans. Tomarrow, well more like later that day, they would go shopping foa dress and start looking around for a place and someone to preform the ceremony. Tae was going to cater the event and she said she could get her waiters and waitresses to help out. Kenshin and the rest of the guys were going shopping in a few days for a new gi and hakama. The girls finally went to sleep but were awoken 9 hours later when Tae decided it was time to get up.

"How about this one Kaoru?" Tae sadi picking up a dress that was bright red with cherry blossem flowers on it.
"Or this" Naoko said picking up a orange one.
"How about no" Kaoru said. She was looking at more traditional dresses in shades of blue and white.
"I love these two" She said picking up a white dress with gold and silver butterflys and flowers on it and an identical midnight blue one.
"well try them on" Megumi sadi pushing her into a changing room. Kaoru decided to try on the white one first. It fit her perfectly and looked good but none of them loved it. Then she tried on the blue one. It too fit her perfectly but it also brought out the blue in her eyes and went perfectly with her dark hair she stepped out from behind the curtain and showed her friends. All of their mouths dropped the way she hoped Kenshin's would.
"That's the one" Megumi finally said.
"You think" Kaoru asked looking at herself in the mirror.
"uh huh" they all said
" okay I'll get it" She went back inot the dressing room to put her kimono back on. She stepped out a couple minutes later the dress in her hand and they went over to pay for it.
"I'll pay" Naoko said handing the man the money.
"But..."
"But what Kaoru Okita makes enough money and he knows I'm here for your wedding he wont think twice about it."
"Alright" They took the dress and decided to drop it off at the Akabeko before continuing their shopping. So they did this and on their way there they passed the flower shop.
"Why don't we order the flowers while we're here" Tae suggested.
"because we haven't set an exact date yet" Kaoru said she kept on walking and they all followed relunctetly. After a few minutes they were at the Akabeko where Tsubame was just getting to work.
"your late" Tae said to the small girl.
"I'm very sorry Tae but something came up"
"It doesn't matter we were just out shopping anyway."
"What came up?" Kaoru asked. Yahiko had left around the same time they had with a little bit of money and Kaoru had a feeling something had happened between the two.
"Yeah what came up" Misao jumped in. They all knew something had happened Tsubame was blushing.
"It was nothing,Why were you all shopping?"
"Don't try and c
"You haven't heard?" Megumi cut in.
"Heard what?"
"Kenshin proposed and Kaoru is getting married"
"Really that's amazing. congratulations Ms. Kaoru"
"Thanks, would you like to finish shopping with us, you all need better clothes"
"Hey" Tae, Megumi, Misao, and Tokio said.
"She's right you both do" Naoko stepped in. Both girls laughed while the other 4 scowled. Tsubame giggled too.
"Hey you were included in that too Tsubame, if you want to be in my wedding you can't wear that"
"Really!"
"Of course, now come on I want to finish shopping before midnight"
"Right right, lets go" They all left to finish shopping for everything they would need, including new clothes for Tae, Tsubame, Megumi, and Naoko.
