The Ultra Long Kenshin Fic Chapter 15: Happy Wedding?
The night before the wedding was rowdy, everyone that Kenshin and Kaoru had ever met was there. Including Sano's family, which no one ever knew that he had up until now. The place looked incredible, the torches were lit, and it was almost as if it were haunted, but in a good way. The dinner was going smoothly, everyone was eating and having a great time. Sano and Aoshi of course had to have another drinking contest. Kenshin was not involved this time, since he had to wake up early the next morning. They were doing the wedding at dawn, and Aoshi was giving the ceremony. Kaoru was getting a little nervous. She went back to her room after the group finished eating. Megumi followed her.
"Kaoru, what's wrong?" She asked. Kaoru shook her head.
"I don't know. I should be excited for tomorrow, but now I wonder if Kenshin really does want to marry me or not. I mean, he did ask me, but still…" she sighed. Megumi went up to her and hugged her. Kaoru's eyes widened.
"Just stay calm. It's Kenshin, he may look clueless, but he knows a lot more than one may think," Megumi stated, smiling. This made Kaoru smile as well.
"I guess you're right. I'm just getting anxious, that's all," she stated. Megumi went back to her room and Kaoru fell asleep shortly after that.
Everyone went to bed as soon as they were done, some went earlier than others. Kenshin went out back, to the bridge where he had proposed to Kaoru. He sighed as he looked into the water. There was suddenly a shadow near the bushes. Kenshin went over to them and the shadow disappeared.
"Must have been my imagination," he thought and then went back inside to get some sleep.
The next morning came quickly. It was right before dawn. Kaoru was already dressed in her white shiro-maku kimono, and Kenshin was in his montsuki kimono. Everyone was standing outside around the tourches, and Kenshin was standing up by the pourch of the dojo, where Aoshi was. Sano and Yahiko were both up front as well as Megumi, Tae, and Tsubame. Kaoru came down the aisle, blushing. Her hair was pulled up and twisted into a bun. Pins held it together. The other women were in regular white kimonos, the guys in black. Aoshi started when Kaoru reached the front and faced Kenshin. First was the pouring of the sake. Then the exchanging of rings. It was a very traditional wedding. Tae and Tsubame were crying, Megumi had tears in her eyes.
"You are now husband and wife," Aoshi finished, and closed the prayer book. Kaoru leaned forward as Kenshin took her shoulders gently. He also leaned in and kissed her. Everyone clapped and threw white rice as the two walked back down the aisle. There was a figure standing there, behind one of the trees. Kenshin looked over to it, and it stepped from the shadows.
"Well, hello there my friends," a familiar voice said.
"Esano!" Kenshin cried, reaching for his sword, realizing it was not there, he stood in front of Kaoru.
"What's with all the hostility? I just wanted to see you guys get married! That's all… you are my friends, aren't you?" Esano asked. When Sano finally got to the edge of the aisle and saw that his brother was standing there, he also got angry.
"What the hell are you doing?" He asked. Esano blinked.
"I'm not going to do anything, if that's what you're thinking. I've thought about what I did, and I'm sorry. I shouldn't have kissed her. After all, you are married now. I should not interfere," Esano said, waving his hands back and forth. Kenshin blinked now.
"Oro?" He asked. Kaoru laughed a bit. She was glad that Esano was not going to try and hit on her again.
"Anyways, is there a party or what?" Esano asked, making Sano more mad.
"You just came for the free food, didn't you? Freeloader," he retorted. Esano laughed.
"Look who's talking, Mister Cheapskate," Esano replied. They all laughed, even Sano, who did not want to spoil the happiness of Kenshin's wedding. The party lasted almost all night, there was dancing, drinking, and food. Kenshin and Kaoru loved eachother for the rest of their lives after that.
