Authors notes: Man I didn't get any sleep at all last night so a feel really jumbled XD. I was wicked perky this morning, and now I'm sooo bored I can't think of anything to do except write XD Not that it's a bad thing! Anyway, I keep wondering why so many people aren't updating their stories! For example, 'The maiden' That hasn't been updated in a long time o.O; Anyway, this is chapter four for goal by heart! Hope you enjoy, and thank you all for your reviews!
Chapter 4: Rage ignited
It was in a blink of an eye before it was morning. Kaoru had rubbed the sleep from her eyes, and then noticed that she wasn't in her own bed! She began to panic. She clutched the covers to her as if they were a lifeline, and glanced around the unfamiliar room frantically. She then spotted a glimpse of something orange red. She then directed her gaze until it reached a sound asleep red head. Kaoru then sighed in relief as the memories of last night flooded back to her. She then plopped right back down onto the soft bed that belonged to him, ignoring the squeaking it made, and let her drowsiness take her over.
Kenshin then awoke about ten minutes after she had fallen back asleep. His senses where stirred when her heard the squeaking sound his bed made, and took him about ten minutes to wake up. He got up and stretched out the kinks that had formed during his sleep, followed by a light yawn. He looked around his room and then spotted something that wasn't always there. He noticed a lump in his bed, that was usually him. He curiously walked over to it. He carefully dragged the covers off of it to expose a dreaming Kaoru. He smiled and smacked his forehead playfully. He just remembered about last night, and then sighed while running a hand through his sleek flaming lochs. He looked at her again, and then got a mean idea.
He decided to let horns grow from his halo hovered head. He sneakily crept closer to her sleeping form. He had a sly smile on his face when he was just about to pounce on her. But just before he sprung, he noticed something glisten slightly in the arriving sunlight that started to stream through his windows. It was then he noticed what that glisten had came from. Just below Kaoru's eyelashes, was a single tear gem. Slowly streaking its way down her pure face. Kenshin became concerned. He then let instincts take over as he brushed the tear away from her face.
At the sudden contact, Kaoru's eyes fluttered open. She squinted her eyes at the sunlight, and shifted her head to the person who had wiped her tear away. Kenshin only grinned at her. He didn't want to question a dream that brought so much sorrow that you actually cried.
"C'mon it's breakfast time! You must be hungry. I'll cook you something. What would you like?" Kenshin asked in a chirpy voice. Kaoru just looked at him bewildered. How could he be so perky this early in the morning? (A/N: I thought the same question until I actually stayed up all night for the first time, and then saw just how easy it was to be perky. Now I can barely sleep at all at night o.OU) Kaoru just sighed sleepily, and shook her head to shake off the drowsiness that still clung to her.
"Um...do you have French Toast?" Kaoru asked as she got up from the bed, and neatly made it. Kenshin nodded and smiled.
"French Toast coming up!" He said as he marched off to the kitchen.
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
Kenshin had indeed successfully made the French Toast. And it was the best French Toast she ever had! Suddenly, a thought wrung through her head. It was awfully quiet in this house. Where was everybody? It was too early in the morning for anyone to go to work. At least she didn't hear anybody leave. And wouldn't someone else be here? Kaoru couldn't hold it in much longer. She decided to take a risk, and ask him.
Kaoru then took in a breath, and spoke up. "Um...Kenshin...If you don't mind me asking...where....are your parents? Or siblings if you have any...?" Kaoru asked as she looked at him. It seemed that she had hit a nerve because when she mentioned that, he became dead still. His back was turned to her since he was still making the French Toast. He then interrupted to silence as he turned his head, barely even a fraction to the left as he muttered,
"They're dead..." He replied in an emotionless tone. He then continued to work on the task at hand. Kaoru made a small gasp. She couldn't believe that Kenshin was living on his own. How was he paying the bills, and things like that? Kaoru was sketchy on pressing the situation further but she wanted to make sure he was ok.
"How...are you...paying...and things like that?" Kaoru asked softly, making sure not to sound rude. Kenshin smiled although his back was turned to her, and continued to fry the French Toast.
"I have a wealthy uncle that lives in Osaka. He pays them for me." Kenshin said in a low tone. Kaoru just whispered a slight 'oh', and continued to think about what could have happened to them. Kenshin then flipped the French Toast onto a plate, picked it up, and brought it over to the table where she sat. He looked into her eyes, and as if reading her mind, he answered her questioning look.
"They died in a car accident. We were driving down a highway at night when it was storming. We were driving slowly so not to slip on the road." Kenshin began to tell her the story as he le the memory flood his troubled mind.
Flashback
"Dad I'm scared..." Murmured a nine year old red head. A woman in about her late twenties turned around from the front seat to face him. She had a comforting smile on her youthful face.
"It's alright dear. Everything will be fine. You have no reason to worry. Daddy is a good driver, and he will get us home safely." She said in a soft tone to a frightened Kenshin. She turned around again when Kenshin nodded his head shakily.
"Yeah. There's no reason to be scared little man. We'll just drive slowly." His dad said with a smile as he quickly glanced at Kenshin, then turned his gaze back to the slick road. Kenshin's heart beat still didn't falter. He didn't know if he had a sixth sense or anything, but he had a bad feeling in the pit of his stomach. Like something was just lurking in the darkness. Waiting for the right moment just to pounce.
Kenshin then glanced out of his drenched window. He watched as the rain beat on it and continued to glide down the glass. He watched as the dark sky lit up when the lighting flashed, and listen to when the thunder cracked loudly only seconds after the lighting. He didn't like it. Not the storm, but just that feeling. He kept chanting in his mind... 'any minute now...' And then, out of the blue, Kenshin felt a sudden jolt go through his body, and then he felt the car slip out of control. The next thing he knew, they were on the side of the road.
He blinked a couple times to get his mind to wake up. He was trembling and shivering. He couldn't put words to what had just happened. All he remembered was an extremely horrifying spinning, and then a painful bash. Then blackness. Kenshin shook his aching head, and un buckled himself from his seatbelt. The car was tipped on its side, and wasn't in a good position to move. He slowly made it to the front of the car where his parents lay. He stumbled up to his mom, and shook her a couple times.
"Mom...mom...wake up! We gotta get help." Kenshin then took her shoulder, and turned her so that she was facing him. He gasped and dropped her form, shuddering away. Her face was drenched in blood, and her head had a hole the size of a golf ball. He then noticed that the glove compartment was open, and figured that her forehead must of smashed through the corner of it. Kenshin started to breath sharply as he stumbled backwards, and tripped over something. When he regained his composure, he looked to see what he had tripped on, and saw that it was him dad.
"Dad! Dad! We gotta get help! Mom's hurt!! Dad!!" Kenshin then also turned his dad to face him, and saw that his neck was bleeding. Kenshin started to shudder when he saw how his dad's neck was bent do far back that it looked like it was ready to snap off. Kenshin then slowly dropped to his kneed and started to weep. (A/N: I know I know. Mushy stuff. But just to make the situation more bold, I kept his name to Kenshin instead of Shinta :D) Kenshin lay there silently, as the storm roared on. After some time, he crawled out of the tipped car to see another car on the opposite side of the road.
He noticed a little girl sitting by a woman's body, next to a totaled car, was shaking and crying. He would have gone over to see what was wrong, but he was too much in a daze. He quickly interpreted that the car over there had been the same vehicle that hit theirs. Anger surged within him. He would get that girl if it was the last thing he did. He was almost going to march over there and take care of her right then and there. But he decided he would rather wait, and let his anger build. He then saw her turn to him with puffy red eyes. They were as clear as crystal to him. He could see them even in the pouring rain. They were a deep sapphire. Burning with a blue flame.
End of Flashback.
Kenshin's eyes suddenly widened as he finished. He looked at Kaoru who had her head bowed, and her eyes holding sadness. Kenshin's face then bunched up into a face of furry. He glared at her and then snarled at her,
"It was you!!! You're the one who I crashed into that night!!!" Kenshin barked as he continued to glare at her in hatred. Kaoru's head snapped up from it's lowered position, and let her frightened eyes, bore into his furious ones.
"I...I..." Kaoru stuttered wither her words as she began to shiver under the intenseness of his glare. Kenshin then hopped over the table and grabbed Kaoru fiercely by the neck.
"You were the one who crashed into us, and killed my parents!!" Kenshin spat out at her all the while making the grip on her neck more firm. Kaoru began to claw at his hand. Her lungs started to burn for air. Kenshin's eyes weren't a violet plum anymore. They were a glittering gold.
"K-Kenshin...you're....hurting me." Kaoru squeaked out as she started to feel light headed. Kenshin then let go of her neck, and threw her to her chair. Kenshin continued to glare at her, rage burning in his soul.
"You killed my parents! You murderer..." Kenshin said, venom dripping from his words. When Kaoru got her breath back, she looked at him, tears brimming her fearful eyes.
"Kenshin I-" Kaoru didn't get to finish because Kenshin interrupted her.
"Shut up. I don't want to talk with a murderer." He said, sitting down and closing his eyes as he crossed his arms.
"But Kens-" She still didn't get to finish what she was about to say when he cut her of once more.
"I said shut your freakin' mouth!!" Kenshin hissed at her, glancing at her with hatred. Kaoru's fear filled eyes grew stern.
"Kenshin Himura!!! You are NOT the only one who lost someone dear to you!!!!" Kaoru screamed as tears began to poor reluctantly down her stern face. "My mother died in that car accident!" She said as she looked at him, bravery finally coursing through her shivering body. Kenshin whipped his head to her direction.
"Yeah well I lost both my parents thanks to you." Kenshin replied not even having a drop of mercy in his dry voice. Kaoru then grew angry herself. He had no idea what she went through after that.
"I have to say I didn't suffer the loss of both. I suffer the loss of one mentally and emotionally. And I suffer abuse from the one still alive. Physically, Emotionally, Mentally, and Verbally." Kaoru said as she looked Kenshin straight in the eye.
"Ever since my mother died, my father has blamed me. He has beaten me to the point where I can't even stand! I have thought so many times of leaving my father, or killing myself, but thinking about it, my father won't be able to suffer the loss of another loved one! I love my father despite the fact that he abuses me! Also I know that my mother, if she were alive, would have never wanted me to kill myself just to get away! So I suffer for my mother and for my father! So don't you say that I have it easy!" Kaoru said as she started to let her tears fall again. Kenshin just looked at her and said,
"Well maybe your mom should have stayed alive. That way I could get revenge on her, and let your father beat you so things would be even. But since she died in the accident, I'll just have to let your father deal with you. Your life isn't worth much anyway." Kenshin spat at her. He had no idea what he just said, and how it effected Kaoru. Kaoru just plainly stared at him. The life drained from her eyes. Her tears still flowing. She then lost control of her anger. She raised her hand, and without any hesitation, she slapped him hard across his left cheek. Kenshin's head flew to the right from the impact, eyes wide, staying in that position. He then slowly and shakily, turned his head to face Kaoru.
"How dare you!!! My mother sacrificed herself to save me!!!!! She saved me from any harm so I could live!!! She told me that my life was too precious for it to be wasted so easily!!!! How DARE you defy my mother that way!!!!!" Kaoru screamed at him, angry tears flowed over her sad ones with pride. Kenshin's eyes remained blank as he lifted a hand slowly to his cheek that had been struck. Kenshin finally snapped out of his state, and was regretting all that he had done.
"K...K-kaoru...I...I'm...I just..." Kenshin tried to stutter out his jumbled words, but nothing seemed to come out sensibly.
"You're what?!" Kaoru asked angrily. "I'll let you talk! I'm not like you!! A person who tries to silence people when they try to speak!!" Kaoru said as she glared at him, tears still streaking down her stained face.
"I'm...I'm sorry....I..." Kenshin then bowed his head, and began to weep. He shouldn't have said that. He knew that she had a hard life. But he never knew that it was like that. If she could forgive him, she would be the most kind person he ever met. He brought his hand up to cup his face as he continued to cry. He spoke through his hands.
"I...I didn't mean it...I'm so sorry...I..." Before he could finish he felt something wrap around his back. He lowered his hands to find Kaoru on her knees, hugging him around his arms, resting her head behind his shoulder.
"Just promise me...don't ever do that to me again...promise?" Kaoru choked out the last word as she began to well up inside. Kenshin couldn't believe that she forgave him so easily. Then lowered his head into the crook of her neck, and nodded. He wrapped his arms around her waste, and brought her closer to him. He couldn't think of a way to make it up to her. So he just held her close. Just to hold her. Was enough got his rage to be extinguished and put to rest. Just holding her tight.
Wow!! That sure was long!! I tried to make it sound a little dramatic! So how'd you like it?! I hope you all enjoyed my long chapter Anyway, it's the fourth of July, and it's 10:50 pm so I should update this before I forget! Chow for now!!
That's all for now! Please review!! :D
