Chapter Four
By: Sapphire Lupe and Giggle Woman
Thunder crashed outside of the small apartment, and lightening brought life into the room, but that's not what kept up the ebony haired would
She sighed and rolled over. It came again.
The sound of a wailing babe. It never ceased, no matter what they did.
Kaoru huffed and got out from underneath the covers and stocked off into the living room, where Kenshin was sleeping.
She was surprised to see him sitting up and holding Kenji. The cries softened, and he looked up. He looked tired, and Kaoru felt sorry for him.
"Miss Kaoru, Kenji sure does know how to kept one up, that he does." He said with a yawn.
Kaoru smiled and walked over to the pair.
"Here I'll take him; I'm supposed to be the mother here, not you. You go get some rest okay. You can go sleep in my bedroom; I'll probably be out here all night, soothing Kenji, as it seems he does not intend to go to sleep, anytime soon." She took hold of Kenji, ignoring Kenshins protest.
She shook her head and added. "It is not me who has to get up early tomorrow morning." She stopped for a moment and looked up at the clock. It read 3 am.
She laughed "It is already morning, just go get the next couple of hours resting, you have to go in at 5 don't you, for the exams, right?" She questioned.
"Yes, but I can't go to sleep now, worrying that you won't get your sleep."
Kaoru rolled her eyes. "Stop worrying, I'll be fine. I don't have to go to work till one tomorrow afternoon. There is a thing called sleeping in, I know how to do that."
Kenshin just laughed.
"Well if you insist, but first let me make myself a cup of sleepy tea, do you want some?"
"No not yet, I still have a baby to take care of."
Kenji had been quiet for the past couple of minutes, and to there surprise, he was fast asleep. Just as they were about to put him in the cradle, he came back from the land of sleep.
His loud wails sounded out through the apartment.
They both sighed.
"Are you sure?" He asked. He didn't want Kaoru to trouble herself, when he could manage.
"No, Kenshin go get some rest okay, I'll be fine."
He didn't want to yet, so he stayed a while and together they came up with the most ideas possible to put the child to sleep.
Within the pass two hours, Kenji finally fell asleep. They didn't put him back in there, so they just sat there on the couch, all three of them.
There was a loud crack of thunder and Kaoru yelped and jumped on Kenshin's lap. He oroed, and blushed
Kaoru didn't care, so she just snuggled best as she could with Kenshin, with Kenji in between them.
She fell asleep holding Kenji. Kenshin looked down, and smiled. His heart fluttered, and he finally realized that, it almost seemed as though this was his family. That Kaoru was his wife curled up on his lap, with there son in her arms. He couldn't hold back this urge to stroke her soft hair.
He looked at Kenji one more time, and then it dawned on him. Kenji really did look like him. He remembered that Kaoru said the doctors couldn't see him, but they could. He remembered that Kaoru had found him in a trashcan, on a night like this.
Then it clicked. He never did believe these things, but maybe just maybe. Kenji was there future son? His and Kaoru's.
He thought for a moment.
Yes, it could be possible.
Maybe portals really do exist?
