Whisper
Some nights, she'd whisper "Good night" and gently ruffle his hair before going to bed. It was a gesture that confused him at first, after they married, but it was something he grew to love as he'd grown to love Tomoe
Tonight, she did something a little different. "Sleep well, anata," she whispered, kissing him lightly on the forehead. She left a very puzzled Kenshin touching his forehead and wondering exactly where that came from.

Author's notes:
This
one's seventy-five words long and one of my favorites of the four.
I love KxT fluff.
A note regarding "anata"…I don't usually use much Japanese in fanfiction, but I made an exception here because it fit the best. "Anata" literally means "you", but it's generally only used in that sense for people whose names you don't know. Otherwise, it's a light term of endearment, one that fits Tomoe very well.
I'll try to post the third one tomorrow, but we'll see. I have the calculus AP test tomorrow morning, which I'm really dreading...
