Everyday Life
Chapter Two: At the Club
(Edits: 4/11/06)
Disclaimer: I don't own Rurouni Kenshin or any of its characters. For the last chapter I forgot to write a disclaimer so this is the disclaimer for the last chap. too. I also don't own anything well known mentioned here. (By that I mean Lil Kim's song. It's just in case.)
Author's Note: Here is the new chap. Longer and better (hopefully). Um let's see, I'm going to keep the title Everyday Life. I kind of like it now. I really got inspired to write for the past few days and so now I finally have a story. One last thing PLEASE REVIEW. With that said, on with the story.
Kaoru said,"I'll meet you at your place in about 25 minutes."
"'K."
Megumi went back to go get dressed. Kaoru went back upstairs but before going up she heard a growl from her stomach. She just realized she hadn't eaten anything since lunch. It was 8:15(p.m.). She decided to go get a quick bite to eat from the kitchen. Once there, she found nothing but a box of crackers.
"Oh great! I need to go grocery shopping tomorrow."
Finding nothing else after searching some more, she finally ate the crackers.
She quickly went upstairs and into her luxurious master bedroom. She opened the door to her walk-in closet and started to look for something to wear. She finally found a not too old short, black, strapless dress that an old boyfriend had given to her. She never did like him, she broke up with him after finding out he only wanted to have sex with her.
Kaoru decided to put the dress on. It clung to her body revealing her curvy shape. It looked very nice on her. "Well at least the guy had good taste."
After that she went to her dressing table to take a seat and apply her make-up. Then she put on perfume that smelled of rich jasmine and accented her beautifully. She went downstairs and looked in the shoe closet. She found her new pair of black, strap-y sandals and put those on. Kaoru looked at the round and shiny clock hanging up on the wall and saw she had only 3 minutes left. Kaoru got her purse and went to Megumi's place.
The door to Megumi's place was slightly open. Kaoru decided to push open the door and my, my, did she see a surprise. She saw Megumi on top of Sanosuke lying down on the sofa, passionately making out. Sano's arms were around Megumi's derrière and Megumi's arms were all over Sano's vividly brown, spiky hair tugging at it.
Feeling a presence in the room, Sanosuke looked up and saw Kaoru. Wondering why he had suddenly stopped, Megumi discontentedly looked up knowing it was Kaoru. They both immediately got up.
"Well, look who's here babe."
"Sheesh, Kaoru couldn't you be a little late?" Megumi replied in an annoyed voice.
"I'm sorry Megumi." Kaoru said sarcastically. "Can we go now?"
"Yeah sure, just let me re-apply my make-up."
Apparently all of Megumi's scarlet red lipstick was smeared and most of it was around Sano's lips and their hair was out of place.
"Yeah, I need to freshen up really quick too. Hehe." Sanosuke said. Both of them rushed towards the nearest bathroom.
Kaoru took a seat on the now empty sofa. She sat there for a few minutes looking blankly at the big screen TV in front of her. Thinking to herself, Kaoru thought 'maybe I shouldn't go out tonight, I mean Megumi looked pretty cozy on top of Sano.' She let out a heavy sigh. Megumi and Sano finally came back. Megumi was holding Sano's arm.
"All right, come on let's go Missy" He sneered at Kaoru.
"Shut up!" With that said Kaoru followed Megumi and Sano to the car.
The way to the club was no joy ride either. Sanosuke was listening to rap music and was also singing along with the radio.
"…got a man in Japan and a dude in Tahiti…"
"Oh my God! Megumi why the hell did you ever go out with that man! Damn it, tell him to shut the fuck up! He can't sing!"
"I don't care, it doesn't annoy me and I think he's only doing it annoy you. Besides I think he has a wonderful voice."
"Come on Kaoru don't you want to sing? It's fun." Sano said that to make her even more pissed at him.
"No thank you!" Kaoru was practically screaming now because Sanosuke turned up the volume after Kaoru was done talking to Megumi.
Amazingly enough there was no line at the club entrance. So in they went. The club was filled with flashy lights, loud music, and people who were dancing.
Sano gave his girlfriend a kiss on the cheek and went to leave.
Before Sano could rush out of Megumi's sight, Megumi yelled out in a sweet voice," Oh Sano if you flirt with any of the girls here or do anything that I don't approve of…"Then surprisingly her voice changed into a deep, evil voice, "I will know and you will be very unhappy when you find out what happens to you!"
Sano said to himself, "Damn it!"
Megumi and Kaoru decided to go to a table and sit. But before Kaoru could sit down, a teenager who looked like he was 16 came up to her and said in a very drunk tone," Hic… want …hic…some…beer?"
Kaoru noticed the teen was in her 2nd period class. "Hey aren't you in my class?"
Realizing the young woman was his teacher he said," Um…Miss Kamiya? Uh…bye! And he ran as fast he could in the opposite direction.
"Kids! I need to call that boy's parents tomorrow."
"Hey Kaoru I'm going to get something to drink, you want anything?"
"Sure, Megumi, just get me some water."
"Ok."
While Kaoru was waiting for Megumi, someone caught her eye. This man, who looked like he was about 26 years of age, had gorgeous, red long hair tied up into a low ponytail. His long bangs were covering up his eyes but everything she could see on his face was so hot. He also had a distinguishing feature. He had this large cross shaped scar on his left cheek.
Kaoru hadn't seen Megumi standing next to her. Megumi decided to look at what Kaoru was gazing at.
"So I see you've found someone you like." With a grin on her face. Kaoru broke her stare and quickly said," I wasn't looking at anyone."
"Yeah sure. He sure is attractive. Why don't you go talk to him? You know I would've asked him out if I already didn't have a boyfriend."
The man seemed like he didn't want to be here. He was standing next to another man around his age with black hair at the punch bowl.
Kaoru wanted to stare at him all night long but she couldn't otherwise Megumi would start making comments. So she decided to give one more quick glance. This time the man's bangs weren't covering his eyes up and he was intently observing her. Kaoru blushed and saw his soft violet eyes before turning her head around.
"Before we leave tonight, I'm going to make sure you speak to that man."
"Yeah right, Megumi."
Megumi handed over Kaoru's cold bottle of water. She took it and thirstily drank the water.
A while later
Sano popped out of no where and said,"Hey honey, since I can't flirt with girls which I wasn't going to do anyways I decided to go and talk to this guy I saw. His name's Kenshin Himura. Seem's like a nice guy.
With much interest Megumi said," Really, can you tell me how this Kenshin guy looks like?"
"He has long red hair and a scar on his left cheek. Why?"
Kaoru said to herself uh-oh. "Just wondering. Could you introduce us to him? I'd like to see who this Kenshin guy is."
"Fine as long as there's nothing fishy going on.."
"Hey anyone want to dance?" Kaoru hoped they'd get distracted and say yes.
Megumi just ignored her and grasped her arm and pulled her along.
