Hehee! Thanks for those who gave me a review! I love you guys! Oh yeah, those who read my Tomoe, I'm going to have a part two of it. Check out my profile for more information about the story…the most awaited? Hehe…hope you put suggestions to it too!

Rurouni – maxi I was thinking of that too! Hehe…but it looks too fast…I'll make people hang on the cliff with this one. Kaoru will meet Kenshin at the 4th avenue, kiss, make love and then Tomoe will find out about their relationship. And that's when Sano comes in and then get back to Kaoru. They will get married but then Shinta will come to the rescue and grab Kaoru…and the story goes on! Nyahah! It ruined the thrill but I know you'll wait for the moment for this to happen…lolz

Aranare221 hehe…yep! They will be back!

royalBlueKitsune they really are! The original…I don't support Tomoe that much but she's okay with me…sigh…there are a lot of reasons why I like Tomoe…see my story for details.

DISCLAIMER: I DON'T WON RK AND SOME COMPANIES IN HERE…INCLUDING THE FAMOUS STARBUCKS AND COFFEE BEAN. CHARACTERISTICS MIGHT HAVE CHANGED…

Chapter 11: Is it over?

Kaoru tighten her grip on his arm, he was dragging him somewhere. This isn't acceptable…could it be happening again?

Kenshin was lost, he was the person who loved her and she loved him back. And Shinta…well, he was the person who loved Kaoru…but she doesn't know it yet. Puzzled on her situation, the two that were in the mall hours ago were now darting street to street. Kaoru couldn't accept the fact that they were a couple…they weren't…and no more…but she still loves the old Kenshin.

They ended up sitting on that same park again. Shinta was standing up, staring at the panting and confused Kaoru. She was shaking her head persistently and was panting hard. He too was confused…why did Kaoru pull him that much…was there a reason for it? Sitting down, he brushed his bangs back and then stared at the afternoon that was there before them.

'Kami-sama.' He sighed in relief, 'Today seems to be…different.' Then he looked at Kaoru, she was in excruciating pain and her face…there's sadness and puzzled thoughts. 'Is there something wrong?' he asked his self. He looked at her once more and then took her by her shoulders, letting her sit down.

The red head tried to smile and then made sure everything was fine. He could see the tears that were trying to form in her eyes. Did she feel ashamed? Disappointed of what happened minutes ago? Maybe.

Shinta felt more worries and he tried to soothe Kaoru's sobs down. He wanted to ask but then it might be useless. What he doesn't know that she was crying because of what happened in the past. Because of what happened those days where she felt more pain than today…she was crying because she still loves him…now. Kaoru covered her eyes with her hands, her elbows resting on her knees. She could feel that Shinta wanted to ask her about something, tell her something but if ever he did…she wont answer…and luckily he backed up.

Kaoru couldn't believe what was happening, this can't be fate and this can't be luck either. There might be something on her or on them both that made them develop a new kind of friendship. Whatever it was, she has to put aside the thing she feels for him. But it won't go away…it might stay.

'Kami-sama!' she cried, 'If there's something that would bring Kenshin back, then let it happen!' Then she sobbed again, feeling the hand of the man she loved loll her head to his shoulders. Although Shinta doesn't understand her problems or her feelings, he wanted to help her…solve something or help her in some problem or whatever. Poor him…his innocence led a problem and Kaoru wished she had never met this man she was beside with.

Standing up, Kaoru took a smooth breather and then glanced at Shinta. Sure there was an innocent smile in his lips but he felt sorry for her at the same time. An ivory hand wiped her eyes and then stared at the man she was with. Turning to her left, she stomped her way to exit the park. To Shinta, he was sure shocked of what she was doing. He stood up too and then ran to catch her arm. Pulling it, his eyes opened wide at the sight of Kaoru…

"Kaoru?" he asked, looking at her. Her eyes were swollen and then her nose was puffed. She was serious, glaring back at him as if she was telling him to leave her alone. Due to her reaction to him, he backed up…letting go of her arm and then watched her walk away. To him, it was weird…as if there was something up…

People looked at them as if there was a love quarrel between the two. And also unluckily for them, one of Sano's friends saw it…and he's to call him on the phone to tell him everything he just saw.

Kaoru walked, ignoring all the people who whispered behind her backs if she's alright. She felt she was in some show…showing people her life since she was born. A few people were there, wanting to approach and ask her how she feels but she glared at them back and then walked her way faster. As she reached the door of her home, she took out her house keys and then opened the door. As she entered, she expected someone to be there but there wasn't anyone there…as she sees it. And then she hurriedly made her way to her bedroom, plopping her tired and sad body on the bed. Lying on her stomach, she groped for a pillow and then sunk her head on it, continuing her cries.

"I wish I haven't seen you…" she mumbled repeatedly. Cradling the pillow on her arms. She cried louder and louder, unknowingly, there was someone who was listening to every word that she said. "I wish we weren't a couple…those years before…" she mumbled once more.

The crying Kaoru doesn't know that there was someone behind her, someone was listening to her…someone that really loves her…someone who cares for her…but this time…he's mad.

"Damn you Kenshin…why am I falling for you again?" she growled on the pillow. Before she could speak another word, she felt someone grasp on her leg. It made her turn around and gasp… "Sano?"

Hands in pockets and a frank line on his lips, Shinta walked. Glum of what happened, it was weird. Why would Kaoru run away? There was nothing done there…only that they were called the best couple. Oh yeah…he began to remember her calling him Kenshin. He thought about the name and then decided to ask Kaoru about it…

As the light went green, he pulled out something from his pocket. It was a certain piece of long paper…a ticket. He held it on his nose level and then read what was written. "Free dinner…eat all you can…4th avenue café." He mumbled while reading. Shaking his head, he inserted the ticket on his pocket and then waited for the stoplight to go red. He blew, as if he was smoking, thinking about the 4th avenue café. That café had the best services, good food and expensive taste. It was located near the mall, a few blocks from their home. If you think about the rich coffee they serve, think about Starbucks…but a bit more expensive…yeah Coffee Bean.

Finally the light went red, and he was able to cross the other side of the road. He can't help think, looking on the ground as he walked, not looking at the lights that were going to hit him.

Kaoru made her way to sit on one edge of the bed, wiping the tears on her face and then staring at the man she was engaged with. She felt like falling on a well, the angry and shocked glares were hitting on her hard. "Sano…" she mumbled, trying to look at him in the eye. The man was mad, shocked and he couldn't accept that his fiancée was mumbling words…words that she loves someone else. With Sano standing on the door way, Kaoru couldn't look straight at him. They couldn't utter a few words…and they don't know who will start. Sano coughed, signaling her that he'll start talking.

"Umm…I just got home." He told her, "Sorry I was interrupting your…happy moment." Then he walked his way to the bathroom, stomping and angry…well, jealous. Kaoru watched him do and then stood up to follow him. She took hold of his shoulder, expecting him to turn around. But she didn't expect him to slap her. She was shocked, cupping the painful cheek and then slowly looked at her fiancé.

"Sano-"

"BITCH!"

Kaoru was shocked, she haven't seen Sano this mad. And he even called her bitch! But…it was true…she accepted the fact that she really is a bitch. Tears in her eyes, Kaoru nodded and let the tears flow down on her cheeks. She was biting her lower lip, stopping it from shaking.

"Fine." She replied, "I really am to you."

Sano snorted and then faced the cabinets. Opening one, he got a huge bag and then stuffed his clothes there. Their relationship ends there…

Kaoru couldn't say anything, she was just biting her lip and then staring at the man before her. She watched him finished a bag and then took another smaller bag, stuffing another sets of clothes there. As he finished, he looked back at her, carrying his bags and then glaring at her.

"Move." He warned her.

"Look, can't we just talk?" she whined, controlling her tears.

"Talk?" Sano asked, "It's useless, Kaoru."

"Even though I love him, he won't love me back…cause he knows that we love each other." She replied, controlling her fears and whines. Her heart beat faster than the usual, she couldn't accept the fact that Sano was THIS mad at her…and he wouldn't even agree a small talk.

"He already loved you!" Sano talked back, shouting at her. He dropped his bags and then took another mad glare to her. "You know what? I think you had a glorious time in the park…and you really did."

Kaoru was shocked, did he…saw them on the park? "I was crying, and I'm in need of help that time." Kaoru reasoned out. Better they weren't caught on the mall…where they were to…

Sano shook his head, it wasn't true. Taking the bags, he pushed her and then ignored the sets of cries. Then it irritated him, turning around and then looking at her. He wanted to shout at her, tell her to stop crying and shut up…but he can't. Though he was mad at her, there was still something inside him…a piece that loves her still. He looked at the bed and then at Kaoru. Flashbacks of them sleeping and teasing each other hit his mind. He shook it off and then looked at Kaoru once more.

"See the bed, Kaoru?" he asked her, "That bed is free for the two of you to fuck on." Kaoru swallowed hard, this is not the Sanosuke she knew. Then he left, slamming the door shut.

The ivory maiden slumped on the floor, looking at the door, hoping that it will open but then it didn't. What should she do? There could be no more things to think of…and everything was her fault. Seeing her vision blur, she felt weak and then cry more. Little by little, her head tilted to the side and then she fell on the floor…unconscious and guilty…she wished she could leave the world and die.

Reviews eh? thanks a lot!
