Chapter 15: A Piece of Memory

A hand went behind her, pulling her close to his body. Smiling, Kaoru, kept in mind that it was Kenshin…the person who's kissing her. Her arms circled around him and they kissed once more. Then Shinta broke the kiss, taking her neck as she moaned. Turning to her sweet face, Shinta walked towards the bed. Kaoru find it hard to walk backwards so she left Shinta's body and then teasingly walked to the bed. Taking her pants off, she sat on the bed and then teased Shinta as she slid her fingers to her legs.

Shinta smiled, looked at the window and then back at Kaoru, who was waiting for him to come to bed. Taking a foot forward, Shinta approached Kaoru, who was now kneeling on the bed, able to meet his face with hers.

Kaoru circled her arms on Shinta again and then kissed his lips. Closing and opening mouths, pulling of hairs and clothes with their eyes closed. Slowly, ivory hands began to pull upwards the red head's shirt and then started to unbelt his buckle. Finally, all that was left on Shinta's body was his boxers but he didn't care.

Still kneeling, Kaoru could feel Shinta's hand behind her again but this time, it was slowly, pulling her to lie down. She began to imagine things but then it didn't stop her from having this night. Slowly as they could, they lied down, kissing passionately and hotly. Kaoru couldn't stop moaning every time Shinta would make their kissed faster than before.

As their lips separated, Shinta removed his beloved's shirt with her help and then went back to kiss her again.

Both hands were on Shinta's back, one of it trying to pull his hair as they kissed and danced. Shinta didn't care if Kaoru kept on pulling his own mane, he just let her pull it. A hand slowly made way to Kaoru's bra clasp, trying to remove it but he couldn't. Giggling, Kaoru pushed Shinta away, making him wonder why.

"Kaoru?" he asked, "Did I..?"

"No." she replied, trying to get up as she locked Shinta between her legs. Her hands made way to her bra clasp and then gently unlocked her breasts. Shinta glumly blushed, he can't look at Kaoru straight this time. Smiling, Kaoru could see Shinta' reaction towards her and decided to do something about it. Lying down with her topless body, Kaoru licked her lips and then called Shinta's name, whispering it. Slowly, Shinta looked, straight at her face, ignored her bare breasts.

"If you really love me, I dare you to come up here now, Shinta." She whispered, hugging Shinta tighter with her legs. A chuckle escaped from the red head's lips, it made him brave. Slowly, he pushed back and then rested his hands on Kaoru's sides. Crawl…he would.

Morning.

The sun shone on his face, waking him up and making him look. He looked everywhere, where is he? Then he looked at the woman beside him…now he remembers.

He was lying on his stomach, his arm extended to reach Kaoru's other side of the waist. His hair was scattered on his back and his bangs were covering his face. He stared at the maiden beside him once more, she was still sleeping. Lying on her back, a hand was hugging his arm. She looked lovely, the way her hair was scattered on the pillows and on her shoulders. Shinta moved close to her and then kissed her forehead, removing a few hairs on her face. Then he heard her moan, it made him think that she was to wake up….and yes she is.

With her eyes half open, Shinta moved another bit close to her and then started to kiss her neck, tickling her senses and making her wide awake.

"Shinta…" he heard her groan, pushing his face away from her neck. He chuckled then laughed, trying to sit up and look at Kaoru's face.

"Hey." He spoke, "Wake up and get dressed, let's go out and eat breakfast."

Kaoru didn't hear what he said clearly, wanting to ask again, she got up and looked at Shinta head to the bathroom.

Kaoru began to think of something. Since Shinta and her made love that night 'till early in the morning, she wondered, is there something from the past that came back to his mind? Is there a piece of Kenshin in his thoughts already? She pushed her self away from the bed and then walked her way to the bathroom, pulling out a bathrobe and putting in on. Shinta was washing his face, a towel on his waist and his hair was tied in a high ponytail. Smiling, Kaoru wanted to flirt a little. So she walked up to Shinta, hugging him from behind and kissing his broad shoulders.

"Where shall we eat?" she asked him, her hands making way to his torso. Shinta smiled, he turned around and kissed Kaoru on her lips, taking them in his own. Tasting her morning kiss and then pulled back, he stared at her eyes. "Wherever you want to." He told her and then kissed her forehead. Kaoru's arms were still circling his body, he liked the way she did. Slowly, he brought his hands to her arms, removing them and then giving her a peck on the lips. Kaoru closed her eyes and then allowed Shinta to remove her arms. As she opened her blue eyes, she watched Shinta walk to the bedroom to pick up his clothes and then back to the bath.

"I think we should eat at some café." Kaoru told him, resting her hands on the sink. Shinta grinned, hung his clothes and then looked at Kaoru. "4th Avenue café?" he asked, "Not that one again."

Kaoru giggled, she remembered. Shinta ordered something he didn't like. He even had multiple trips to the bathroom for his order. Somehow, she noticed something. Ever since they made love, Shinta's attitude changed, he wasn't the shy type or the quiet type anymore. She could see Kenshin in his eyes, but there was no glare of yellow in it. Before, when someone would hurt her, Kenshin would beat the crap out of that someone and his eyes would glow yellow. The day at the mall…did his eyes glow that day? Shaking her head, she couldn't remember…she'll just leave the thought alone and let it pass.

The two were now taking a walk in the park, hand in hand. Kaoru was happy, she felt that it was Kenshin who she was with…the person who was holding her hand that day. They just finished eating breakfast, and now they decided to take a walk in the park. It was eight o'clock in the morning, the park was a bit full with children playing all around. Balloons were flying all around, held by their childish owners. All were in different colors and shapes, but the common round balloon has the highest number.

Smiling at each other, Kaoru sees her day as the happiest. Sleeping with the man she really loved, waking up with him and even having breakfast with him…it was beautiful. Her blue eyes opened wide at the sight of balloons, it was cute.

"Balloons!" she exclaimed, pointing at the clown that was selling those. Her hand let go of the callused ones and then made a dash at the balloons. Shinta chuckled, this woman is indeed childish…but has a mature beauty.

He followed her as she approached the clown and stare at the colorful balloons. Then Kaoru looked at him, her sweet smile and how her skin glows with the balloons near her skin…she was beautiful.

"Do you want one?" Shinta asked, pulling his wallet from his pocket. Kaoru nodded like a girl, her hair flirting with the wind. "One?" she asked, "I'd love more that one….maybe four at least."

"You spoiled brat." Shinta joked, pulling out his money from his wallet. Kaoru giggled and stuck her tongue out, then she looked at the clown, telling him to give her four as Shinta paid the balloons.

As Kaoru pulled the balloons, one of it, hit Shinta's nose. It startled him, groaned and grumbled. "Kaoru!" he exclaimed, "Watch where you fly that thing!"

Looking back, Kaoru grinned and then shifted the balloon to the other side, creating a wind that made the balloons surround her. "I'm sorry." She smiled.

Shinta blinked, Kami-sama, she's b-e-a-utiful!

The way the balloons surrounded her, she looked like a goddess. How she smiled, she looked like a child….and her lips…they were soft to kiss. Before he could say how beautiful she was, Kaoru turned, releasing the balloons from her body but still holding on the thin ribbons that held the floating rubber.

Silence ran to Shinta's mind. With Kaoru there doing some sort of a dance with the balloons, something flashed through his mind, as if it happened before already.

"Come on, Kenshin…"

Shinta shook his head, who the heck is Kenshin? And was that Kaoru's voice in his mind? Maybe yes…maybe no.

"Hey, Shinta!" a feminine voice snapped his thoughts. Startled, Shinta looked at Kaoru, she was standing there, her hands full of balloons. Smiling, the red head walked up to Kaoru and then took her by the waist, pulling her close to his. Leaving all the people nearby them, Shinta closed his eyes and kissed her forehead. Beautiful woman…that was all he could think of. Then he brought his hands to her jawline, pushing it upwards and then landing his lips on hers. Kaoru felt something tingling her spine, her skin creating goosebumps and her hands loosing grip on the ribbons.

As their lips parted, both of them looked at the sky automatically. The romantic sight of balloons flying in the sky and them hugging at each other. People around them kept on thinking that the two were such a sweet couple. With the two of them hugging each other and looking at the flown balloons, they looked sweet.

Series of flashbacks ran on the red head's mind…

A few voices…

"Stop that, I don't want that on your face…"

Kaoru? Was that Kaoru? He didn't remember hearing her say those words. Shrugging it off, he just kissed her forehead once more, slinging an arm on her shoulder then they walked.
