It Sarted With A Prank Call
Chapter 4: Track time
It was lunch time and Kaoru, Megumi, Misao, Kagome and Kayko all sat at one table. At the table next to them were Kenshin, Sanosuke, Inuyasha, Aoshi, and Yuuske. Sohjiro walks to Kaoru.
"Hey, there ladies."
"Hi, Sohjiro!"(Kagome, Kayko and Megumi)
He smiles. "So...Kaoru...are you free tonight?" Kaoru's friends starts giggling.
"Yeah, I'm free." Sohjiro smiles (as usual again).
"Great, can you meet me after school so we can decide on a place to start?" Kaoru looked at an empty spot at her table and skooted over. "Why don't you sit with us? That way we can decide right now." Sohjiro blushes. "Uh...thank you." He sits down.

Kenshin scowls (looking at Sohjiro and Kaoru).
"Look at him...thinking he has all the girls." Sanosuke looks at him. (chuckle)"Yeah...he's hit the jackpot alright." Inuyasha starts laughing. "Whatever! Those girls are hardly worth it." Aoshi is silent. Yuuske doesn't speak either.
Kenshin turns toward a table of girls (not Kaoru's) and starts talking. Sanosuke glances over at Sohjiro again. He tells a joke and all the girls start laughing.
"Man, do you think he likes the Missy or something?" Inuyasha looks at their table. "Beats me...he probably does." Kenshin frowned at the comment.
The clock on the cafeteria wall starts to ring. Everyone starts to fly to their last class of the day.
Kenshin walks past Kaoru and Sohjiro at her locker. He curses him under his breathe. Sanosuke walks up beside him. "Your jealous aren't you!" Kenshin makes a face almost instantly. "No Way! No one would be dumb enough to wanna date her." Sano looks at Sohjiro laughing.
"No one but smileyboy."

Kaoru shuts her locker. "I can't wait until we can start this project!" (Sohjiro always smiles so I won't say "he smiles" you'll just automaticaly know that he's smiling)
"Yeah, me neither. Where do you wanna meet for our first exercise?" Kaoru thought for a moment. "Uh...what about...the school track?" Sohjiro nodded. "Yeah, so...I'll see you after school then?" Kaoru smiled. "Yupp!" Sohjiro walked away from her toward his last class. As did Kaoru.

Kenshin's last class of the day was gym. He walked into the boys locker room. He ignored all the other guys and put his bag down. He took off his shirt and replaced it with a white tanktop. He changed his jeans into red and black shorts reaching a bit past his knees (the ones with elastic waist band). He walked to the mirror and thought of Kaoru. I can't beileve she would work with smileyboy!
He walked into the outside gym arena (everyone gathered there first for attendance), passing at least twelve girls. They practicaly fainted.
He looked around for any of his friends. He spotted Aoshi. Kenshin walked over and sat down beside him. "What's up." Aoshi looks at him. "Nothing much...did you notice how many girls fainted as you came in?" Kenshin smirked and looked at each girl that was staring at him. "Nope...never crossed my mind."
"Though there is one girl here that isn't drooling over you." Kenshin faced him egarly, as if insulted. "Who!" Aoshi pointed toward Kaoru. Kenshin made a face. "Like I want her ugly self looking at me." Aoshi chuckled.
The gym teacher walks in and everyone is silenced. "Good afternoon class." The class responds: "Good afternoon Hannya sensei."
He pulls out his wooden clipboard and takes roll. He tosses it near the entrance through which he came from. "You guys have been training enough with partners! Today you have a real match."
The students get excited. Hannya sensei grabs two wooden swords from the ground and walks toward Kenshin. He hands him one. "Alright Battousai (All the male teachers seem to call him that), pick someone to fight with." Kenshin stands up and walks toward the center of the arena. He looks around and almost every person was too afraid to fight him because of how good he was. He rests on the wooden sword and calls out..."Kaoru!"
Everyone looks at her. Kaoru turns red and stands up, glaring at Kenshin. Hannya hands her a wooden sword and she stands infront of Kenshin.
Hannya whispers to himself: This should be good. He backs away from them and puts his hand down. "IMA!(NOW!)" Kenshin and Kaoru don't move. They continue to watch each other. Kenshin looks like he's not even breathing! She thought to herself.
Kenshin instantly attacked her but she blocked it. He aimed for her feet but she jumped a second sooner. She attacked him from behind. He let his guard down so he fell.
Though when he was half way to the ground, he swung his sword at Kaoru's feet and she fell. The class gasps.They had caused a lot of dirt to fly. Kaoru opens her eyes after the dirt had cleared to find herself on top of Kenshin.
He smiled...more differently then he had ever smiled at her before. Kaoru almost got lost in his gaze but she snapped out of it. Kenshin suddenly threw her over and got on top of her, pinning her to the ground. He was able to grab his sword and turn it so if Kaoru had moved, the sword would hit her in her face. She didn't move. Kenshin sits there staring at her. He smiles again, completely forgeting that everyone was watching. Kaoru gets lost in his gaze this time. I can't move! This is so not cool! It was as if his gaze paralized her.
Kenshin leans in closer to her, causing all their classmates to widen their eyes.
"Alright you two! That's enough!" Hannya grabs Kenshin's tanktop and throws him off her. He helps Kaoru up. "Are you okay, Kamiya?" Kaoru nodded. She was still shocked.
Kenshin sat up. "OW! What's your DEAL?" Hannya looks at him. "You know better than to make out with your girlfriends during my class!" Kaoru snaps back into reality. "We're not dating, Sensei." Hannya looks at Kenshin surprised. "So now you decide to hit on your classmates for no apperant reason!" Kenshin makes a face.
"Huh?"
Hannya grabs Kenshin's shirt and stands him up. "You little pervert!" Kenshin looks at him in confusion once again. He releases him. "Of all the classes to get a manly erg for the oppposite sex...why does it always have to happen in my class!" He looks at his watch. "Hmmm...five more minutes and hit the rooms!" The class gets up and starts practicing while Hannya walks into his office.
Aoshi walks up beside his friend. "You realize...that you almost kissed Kamiya, right?" Kenshin turns toward him. "I didn't even realize that I was doing it." Kenshin looks toward Kaoru who is still pretty shocked. Misao runs over to her. "What just happened there?" Kaoru picked up a wooden sword. "I don't know exactly." She looks at Kenshin and then back to Misao. "I guess...I completely went a-wall for a minute." Misao looked at her in disbeilef. "Yeah, right. You almost let Kenshin kiss you!" Kenshin and Aoshi walk up to them.
"Hey, there." Misao glares at Kenshin and smiles at Aoshi. "Hi." Kenshin turned a slight red and turns away. Kaoru looks at her wooden sword which she's having a bit of trouble grasping. Aoshi laughs. For the rest of the gym class, Kenshin and kaoru avoided each other.
Kaoru walked out of the girls locker room with Misao. "Why didn't you change your clothes?" Kaoru looks at herself. "I'm meeting Sohjiro on the track, so I thought this would be the best thing to run in."
Misao smiles. "So you and Sohjiro are going out now, ha?"
"Well...I..." They heard a knock on clear door beside them. Kaoru looked over and saw Sohjiro. He was already dressed for exercising. He motioned her to come on. She smiled and turned back to Misao.
"I'll see ya later, okay."
"Yeah, alright have fun you two!" Kaoru quickly rushes toward Sohjiro. They walk onto the track. "So...how are you, Kaoru?"
"I'm fine, you?"
"Same here. You look like you just had a pretty intense battle." Kaoru remembers her match with Kenshin. "Yeah...it was intense all right." Sohjiro starts running leaving her in his dust. "Hey! Come back here!" Kaoru chases him around until he stops noticing she runs out of breathe.
About and Hour Later...
He starts craking up. Kaoru playfuly punches him in the arm. "That was not funny..."(giggle) (chuckle) "I thought it was."
Kaoru sits down on the grass and looks at her watch. "It's Son las seis menos veintecinco de la tarde.(5:45 p.m.) Sohjiro gasps. What is it ,Sohjiro? Didn't think I knew Spanish? He runs toward his bookbag and coat. No, that was very good. Uh...I gotta get home! I'll see you tomorrow Kaoru! Thanks again for being my partner!"
Kaoru waved him goodbye. "Seeya! Thanks for being my partner too!" Kaoru sits still watching as he dispears in the distance.
"What's wrong, miss your boyfriend?" Kaoru gasps in surprise. She turns around to find Kenshin looking down at her laughing. "KENSHIN! What's your problem, man!" Kenshin calmed down. "So...think you can take me again?"
Kaoru stood up. "Take you again?"
"Yeah...a battle like the one we had in gym today." Kaoru remembered. "Uh..." Kenshin smiled and started to walk away. "Well it was just a suggestion...but I can clearly see that your too scared and tired to take on the great Battousai." Kaoru made a face and followed him. "What! I can beat you anytime, anywhere you snob!"
Kenshin and Kaoru walked into the arena (which Kenshin mysteriously had a key for). "Where'd you get that key, Kenshin?"
"Huh? This thing? Let's just say it's a present." Kenshin grabbed two wooden swords and threw one to Kaoru. He walked up infront of her.
"Okay...let's make this interesting shall we?"
"What do you mean...interesting?" He smirked at her. "If I get you on the ground in three hits...then you have to kiss me." Kaoru's eyes widened. "Huh? Why do I have to kiss you!"
"'Cause." Kaoru ignored him. "Fine, but if I knock you down in three hits...you have to kiss Sanosuke tomorrow infront of me!" Kenshin made a face. "WHAT! I'm not gonna kiss a guy!"
Kaoru giggled. "Too bad." No way, make up something else." Kaorucontained herself and thought of somethinf else. "Fine...then if I knock you down in three hits, you have to be nice to me for a day."Kenshin thought for a moment. "Hmmm...you drive a hard bargan Kamiya...but okay, deal."
Kenshin threw the first swing. Kaoru blocked it again. Then she attacked and it hit him in the stomach. He pushed her and hit her in the back with his sword. She almost fell. She attacked him but he managed to block it. Kenshin knocked her to Hannya sensei's office door and hit her in the leg causing her to slide down. He stood tall infront of her.
"HA! I win!" Kaoru gripped her sword. No way I couldn't lose to him! I guess he really is good at this sword stuff. Kenshin sat down infront of her. Kaoru sighed. "I guess you do win...this time." Kenshin smiled anxiously. Kaoru looked at him and laughed. "You didn't really mean...that I had to kiss you did you?"
Kenshin nodded. "I meant it alright." Kaoru denied his response. "Your just gonna tell everyone in school that you kissed me because you feel sorry for me." Kenshin shook his head. "No, I won't."
"Yeah, you will." Kenshin pulled her close to him.
She doesn't say anything...but you could so tell she got lost in his gaze again. Their lips met for the first time. Kaoru was shocked but closed her eyes anyway. My body...feels warm. I can't move...I will not fall for him! Your doing this because it's a dare, Kaoru, A DARE!
She felt them seperate and opened her eyes to find Kenshin smiling down at her. "There, now that wasn't so hard now was it?" The last time she had seen him smile like that was when they were dueling in gym class.
Kenshin stood up. He grabbed the sword away from Kaoru and picked up his. He threw them near the bag with the rest of them. It took about six minutes. He turned back to Kaoru who was asleep on the ground. Hmph...I guess all that running with Smileyboy really took it outta her. Kenshin walks over and picks her up.
(chuckle)She looks a lot better asleep than she does when she's awake(joking). He carried her to his car. He unlocked the door and set her down in the passengers seat. He shut the door and sat in the driver's seat. Kenshin took out his cell phone and dialed Sanosuke's number.
