Chapter 6: Time After Time
Kaoru sneaked to her locker. Phew! He isn't here yet. Kenshin had been awfully strange to her. He was trying to make me fall for him, always talking seductively. As if I don't know his plan. He doesn't care for me. He just wants me to think that. I bet...
"Hey", Kenshin whispered into her ear.
"What do you want Himura?"
"You." She blushed. He is such a liar. Why am I blushing then? Grr! Stupid me!
"Oh. Here's an umbrella." She handed him a black umbrella, like his original one, except his name was broidered in gold at the tips. He took it and smiled that famous smile. "I thought I owed it to you..." He was staring at her again. She whacked him. "Don't look at me like that." She was drawing attention to herself. His fan girls glared.
"You know you want me too."
"No I don't. You're so self absorbed. You loser." She insulted me! Me! ME! Does she know what she's dealing with? He smirked. So you wanna play games, eh little girl?
"Yes you do."
"Nope." Yeah you do, you liar. Ah! Stop talking to yourself Kaoru!
"You liar!"
"You read my mind! What are you a psychic freak!"
"Aha! So you admit you do!"
"Noooo! Aw phooey. I give up."
"So you do."
"No. I give up in talking to you." Her words stabbed his heart, but he didn't show it. The fan girls giggled and began to surround him as Kaoru walked away.
BRIIIIIIIIING
"Good morning class. Today for science we're going to do an experiment, so everyone pick your partners and write their name down on this slip. First come, first serve. You'll be stuck with that person." Kaoru looked over to Kenshin and saw him staring at her. That mischievous glint was in his eye. Oh no.
"Okay. We have...Misao Makimachi and Aoshi! And...Sanosuke and Megumi! Also...Enishi and...eh, what's this...two people want Kaoru?" Kaoru looked up. "Well who do you want Kaoru? Kenshin Himura? Or Enishi?"
"Eh...I don't..." Kenshin looked at her willingly while Enishi smiled at her. The pressure was making her feel bad. I guess this is gonna keep happening. Argh, stupid Kenshin!
"Oh wait never mind. We have an odd number of students. You all can work together! Isn't that marvelous?" Kenshin and Enishi glared at eachother. Let the games begin, they thought simultaneously. Kaoru sighed. Oh boy.
BRIIIIIIIIING
It was time for lunch. Before Enishi could speak, Kenshin grabbed Kaoru by the arm and started dragging her away.
"Let's eat outside Kaoru. No one goes out there." He winked at her. Sano and Enishi watched him leave with Kaoru. Damn that Kenshin, they thought.
"Umm...Kenshin..."
"Yeah?"
"WHY THE HELL ARE YOU STALKING ME?"
"I told you before. I want you. You're my woman now." He put his arm around her, causing her to blush. I guess I better get used to it. Him and Enishi are gonna keep fighting over me...
until someone wins.
(a/n was that any better?)
