Disclaimer: Kenshin still don't belong to me. However, I finally own myself, but I'm gonna go back to not owning myself cuz I'm gonna use my newly acquired money to by anime! *grin*
A/N: I actually had a dream on how this next chapter should go. Lets hope I can write it as well as I dreamed it.
Chapter 6: Shocking Events and Plans Revealed.
Misao couldn't believe how Kaoru had acted. She sat at her desk in her room and frowned. 'All because he is a skater…' However, Misao's angry quickly passed when she remember the very handsome skater she had seen. He left before Kenshin and the other tall skater did. She sighed. 'He looked so strong and confident of himself. I wonder if he was that new student everyone was talking about… Oh well, just get over it, Misao, you'll probably never see that guy again… whoever he was…'
* * * *
Kaoru sat at home, trying to stifle the tears that would not stop flowing. "Why am I crying?!" she said out loud. "Why should I even care?!"
'Because you love him and you know it,' a part of Kaoru's mind responded.
"No, I don't… he's a lowlife skater!"
'But he's not the same as the others. I think he has proved this many times.'
"…"
'So, I'm right. Just admit it to yourself, Kaoru, you are in love with Kenshin Himura.'
Kaoru nodded, but suddenly was angry with herself because she had argued with herself! 'I'm going crazy… and it's all Kenshin's fault!'
* * * *
"Ahh, man, that's harsh," Sano said after hearing Kenshin's story. "I think you should give up on the chick. She ain't worth it. Anyway, she's like the smartest one in the school! What makes you think you even have a shot with her?"
"I don't know, Sano. But I do know one thing, I won't give up," Kenshin said, nodding in his determination.
"Whatever! She has this major complex about skaters! She can't stand them! Again, what chance do you, a SKATER, have?" Sano said, emphasizing the word 'skater'.
"Well, if she can't stand skaters… then there might be a way…" Kenshin stated thoughtfully.
"Uh oh, I don't like that tone of voice. What are you planning, Kenshin?"
"Sano, after this Saturday's competition, I am officially quitting skateboarding."
"WHAT?!?!?!!?!?" Sano yelled. "You can't be serious!"
"I'm serious, Sano. As serious as I've ever been."
"But you could have a great future being a skater!"
Kenshin shook his head, "No future can be great for me without Kaoru."
"We promised! We promised we would go pro together! Don't you remember that?!"
"Things change, Sano. Wait 5 minutes and they will change again. It's just the way it is."
"I can't believe you would just throw away our promise cuz of a girl! See ya later, Kenshin! Hopefully later than sooner!" Sano yelled as he stormed out of the house.
"I hope I'm making the right decision…"
* * * *
Sano slammed his locker. He still couldn't believe what Kenshin was planning to do! He glared at his locker as if trying to burn a hole through it.
"Hey, Rooster-head!" a female voice called.
Sano turned around to see Megumi run up. "What you want, Fox? I ain't in the mood for insults this morning."
"It's more important then that! You and Kenshin know each other, am I correct?"
"Yea, I know him. Why?"
"Well, you see, he really likes my friend, Kaoru."
"Yea, I know… all too well…"
"Well, since you know almost all of the guys in this school, I have a plan to get those two together! But I need your help! Will you help?" Megumi asked, pouting slightly. 'Heh, no man can resist the pout, not even Rooster-head.'
Sano looked at her and sighed, "What do I have to do?"
Megumi smiled, "Well, you know how the Prom is coming up really soon right?"
Sano nodded.
"Well, I want you to tell all the guys you know and even the guys, except for Kenshin, of course, you don't that if Kaoru Kamiya asks them to the Prom, they are to say they already have dates. Then Kaoru will be stuck with Kenshin! I know she won't want to go alone!"
"Nice plan, Fox. Sure, I'll help."
"Thank you so much, Sano," Megumi smiled and hugged him. "Well, gotta go! Bye!"
"Bye." 'Kenshin, you are gonna owe me big time.'
A/N: Wow, Megumi's plan revealed! Will it work? Will Kenshin really quit skateboarding? Will Kaoru get a date to the Prom? Do you know the Muffin Man? Woah… where did that last question come from…? Anyways, here are my thanks:
Crystal: Yes, Kaoru is kinda mean… But later, she gets nice again…
K-chan: Thanks! I'll keep it up as long as I can!
DiaBLo: Sorry if it seems rush and fast-paced and such. Its just people want me to get to romance stuff. I'll try to go slower.
Tifa-sama: Yep, poor Kenshin. Kaoru is kinda mean and a little OOC.
Kawaii Ayame: You like Aoshi a lot don't you? I personally like K&K better than any other one. I kinda feel better. I'm not as sick.
SailorLoneStar: I feel bad for you about yer 2 essays… I know some characters are OOC, I don't need you telling me that. Aoshi wants to be the best skater… I don't think that's considered stuck up. Yes, please shush up now.
Spellcaster the Diamond: Thanks. You liked the Kaoru part? Aoshi will get nicer, a little, after he meets Misao in a chapter or two. Here's the next chapter!
