The Two assassins

Chapter 6: Deep as the ocean:

"Kenshin!" Kaoru yelled "you'll get cancer if you don't put some Sun protector on your skin!" she tried to call him a few times but Kenshin was "exploring" the nearby places and a few minutes later he answered.

"I'm coming" he said and sat down on the hot sand warmed by the mid day light. His arms surrounded her from the back, he leaned his head on her shoulder, his warm breath against her ear sent shivers through all her body aiming her to forget about the sun protector stuff.

"Have you noticed there is no one at this beach?" said Kaoru innocently

"I Know, or I wouldn't have navigated 8 hours to find a bunch of people" he said softly, his hands searched for her inner thighs and draw circles with her fingers on her skin.

He was wearing a black short, his tanned chest was bare, his red bangs were shorter now that he had decided to cut his hair a little, coz it was a real mess, and sometimes impossible to tame. Kaoru was wearing a baby blue bikini and a huge baby blue hat, her long raven hair was falling on her back and a pair of black sun glasses covered her beautiful eyes.

"Kenshin…" she said hypnotized by his touch

"Yes my dear" Kenshin said and nibbled her earlobe

"Don't stop" she pleaded. He began to kiss her nape and then he pulled her closer to his body, she rested her head on his shoulder with eyes half closed, with two fingers he pulled upwards her chin and Kissed her, he parted her lips with his tongue and went to explore her mouth to taste her sweetness, she found it quite fascinating, he had never done that, their tongues battled with each other in a soft dance, his hands were gently cupping one of her breasts and gently rubbing her thumb against one of her nipples that stood still to his touch, she turned to face him fully and sat on his lap, her hands firmly attached to his neck and one of his own was on her lower back while the other ventured even lower. They broke the kiss for lack of air, and his smile turned into a mixture of sexy-evil one, it was something really weird to explain. His eyes were fixed on her blue ones and she suddenly felt intimidated by the way he was looking at her, she had never seen such kind of reaction from her mate. Some sort of fear and excitement flooded her whole body; her fate was on his hands and a tiny thread was keeping a beast to be unleashed.

"Mr. Seta would you like a cup of tea" a woman asked

"No thanks, but I call you if I need something" he said politely.

"Very well" said the woman and left the room leaving him with his thoughts.

'If there was a way through this, if only I could show her how I feel about her. I know that we are many in this game coz I know Billy has a weird crush on her too, but I thought he had found himself a lover or something'

'How can it be that one woman can make every man to fall from her? She's so beautiful, so naïve, those eyes of hers are just like two deep oceans where you can get lost and never come back again, I will give anything for her, even my own life'

'Maybe it was not a good idea to come here now that I had finally forget my pain' 'Now that she's with Himura, with that bastard, a man that is so cold, so heartless, and not with me that I can give her all my love, even if he's my friend I won't let him have her' he stopped doing his work, he only stared a t the beautiful city of Miami thinking a hundred things at the same time, nothing could make his thoughts to fade, he had everything in life , he was good looking, extremely rich, the sweetest guy on earth, everything, but the woman he desired. His eyes were tired of watching a computer, his hands of writing stuffs, it had been so long since the last time he had seen her, they had left Tokyo at least five years ago, and he was forced to stay doing other business on Japan, he longed to see her to hold her and most of all kiss her, he had managed a long time ago to kiss her on a summer day when Kenshin and Kaoru had not even met. He closed his eyes and massaged his temples, he was tired of his stupid work and this stupid mess. He stood up, and walked across his office, another long boring day.

He was driving to somewhere, he wasn't really sure, maybe a day at Miami beach wouldn't harm anyone. The car stopped, and lots of people were going and coming on the sidewalks it was a typical day at the beach, the silver Mclaren attracted many people to the lot park, and many beautiful young women surrounded him, but they were nothing compared to his Kaoru.

"Again Aoshi?" she asked "You're leaving so soon?" her big eyes were pleading for an answer

"I'm sorry Misao, but I really need to go" he said and kissed her forehead.

"I can understand that, But why to soon?" she wasn't sure about many things now, Aoshi had been traveling lately and she was always left at home.

"Honey you must understand, or I wouldn't be able to give you this kind of life" he said, he hated so much to leave her but it was absolutely necessary.

"Aoshi we have more than enough, Look at us!" she practically shouted in a nervous tone "Aoshi we travel on our own jet, we have houses everywhere, money to waste, I'm just asking for you to be a bit more at home, Your kid is growing and he barely knows you" her tears were sliding freely from her eyes.

"Misao please don't" he said and wrapped his arms around her small frame

"You've become a work addict" she said

"No I haven't" he gently kissed the top of her head and caressed her small back "I won't go alright" he said and felt how he tightened her embrace

"Would you? Would you really stay here at home?" she asked and cried even louder

"Yes, I will?" he captured her lips with his own in a long wild kiss something that she hadn't feel for a quite long time.

…………………………………………………………………………………………….

That breeze, it remembered to her, to her soft hands, her silky hair, her creamy skin everything in her was jut so damn perfect.

The soft and hot sand against his feet was something that he needed to feel, it relaxed him, the sun against his pale skin made him feel of her hands touching his cheeks, he almost could imagine a perfect life with her, but it was something that it was never going to happen, his so called friend had already taken her and he was pretty sure he had already claimed her as his. Gosh he was so wrong, but that it's something that only you and I know specially I XD.

A not so flash back in time………..

"Kaoru" a young Soujiro said, he was then 17 years old

"What's the matter?" a young Kaoru asked

"I was… you know thinking than maybe we could go to see a movie" he said and blushed

"A movie? Sounds cool" she said with a big smile on her face, he was her best friend, the shy and cute Seta Soujiro, just thatt she wasn't aware that he wanted to be more than friends

"Great , so I will be at your house at seven?" he asked coyly

"At seven it's fine" she said. Soujiro was the perfect guy for Kaoru, or at least that was what Kaoru's father always said.

She had been preparing herself for a long time and the red Aston Martin had already parked in front of the main gate of the Kamiya's manor, Kaoru's father greeted him happily while Misao watched him carefully; that sweet smile of his was a mixture between happiness and sadness, it was something complex to explain.

She went downstairs; her hair fell loose on her back, she was wearing a long turquoise skirt and a white delicate blouse. He held his breath and watched amazed as his "friend" slowly took every step. He offered her his arm and carried her to his car, he opened the car's door for her and then he entered, turned on the engine and drove off.

"Soujiro, I've made up my mind" she said, they were far enough of her house to speak freely. .

"About what" Soujiro said afraid of what she was about to say and was praying for not to be what he was thinking it was.

"I will do it" there, she said it, he stopped the car and turned his head to see her

"No you won't" he said overreacting

"I will, I've already spoken with my parents, It's something they will have to accept, and they already have" she said proudly and afraid at the same time, it was dangerous indeed, but she had already made her choice.

"Please Kaoru, Don't do it" he said softly and pleading at the same time

"I'm not asking you permission, nonetheless I appreciate your concern" she said not daring to look into his eyes

"You're risking your life" said Soujiro and placed one of his hands on her shoulder.

"I know" she said "But I do not fear death" He was feeling already defeated, a battle against Kaoru was something he couldn't win. He hugged her, and she hugged him back, and if he didn't ventured to kiss her, that was going to be the closest encounter with her. She had her eyes closed and she didn't notice when he was getting closer to her face when she suddenly felt his lips brushing against hers, she immediately opened her eyes surprised with his previous behavior, he removed his lips as fast as possible from hers and apologized for what he had done. She didn't get upset, it was her first kiss and Soujiro was a complete gentleman.

"I'm.. I'm so sorry" he said pulling away his head and tried not to look at her, she only blushed. "If you want I will take you back home" his hands were wet with cold sweat.

"Please" she managed to say and couldn't believe that was her voice. His previous comment about her choice had provoked in her a deep impact and when he kissed her…

'great' he thought "I've fucked everything'

End of the not so flash back in time…..

Just like then, I missed my opportunity and even if we kept our friendship and was stronger than ever, that will never change my decision….

……………………………………………………………………………………………

"No dad Please!" she begged "It wasn't my intention!" she kept yelling to herself

"You betrayed us" the man said angrily "Look what you've done to your sister!" he shouted "You're not my daughter anymore!" he was furious, the red eyes of the man were sending shivers through her whole body. She kneeled on the floor, her dress was a mess, her hair and dress were damped by the rain, she was barefooted, her eyes were swollen by her uncontrollable sobs.

She had been sleeping for a few hours Aoshi was bedside her with a cold towel on his hands and softly dried her sweat.

'again' she said to herself.

…………………………………………………………………………………………….

"Damn You!" he shouted in the middle of the conference "Why I am paying you, if you don't know where are they!" he threw a glass and crashed it on the wall, everyone in the whole room bowed their heads and tried to ignore his voice or the will surely faint. He exited the room and closed the door with a loud bang. It was difficult to be under Vaelz charge, he was a great client, but hard to impress and satisfy.

The room burst with the men conversations, everyone was trying to find a way to please him. Such a difficult man with so many privileges and contacts, was definitely a two edged knife. No one could trust him, he was a person with crazy ideas, but sometimes noble.

He walked trough the hallway to his room, he opened the door and found a woman on his bed, she had black hair and a white dress, here eyes were not so shiny and tired, her lips were red and her skin white. The man stopped at the entrance and sighed.

"hello there" she said and waved her hand

"It was an awfully long time" he said and watched the woman from head to toes.

"Yes it was" she said not even bothering to look at him

"Why did you come" he walked toward the bed and sat on the mattress

"I did you a favor a few days ago remember?" she said and placed her delicate hand on his thigh

"Yes I do" he said and removed her hand

"Please, what's the matter? you used to like it" the way she said it seemed almost sinful

"I hated when you didn't come personally to inform me" his fingers traced her facial features and stopped on her lips, his thumb was gently brushing her lips.

"I'm sorry but I had to ran away"

"you? ran away" he laughed "Why it doesn't surprise me?"

"I did the job" she cried "that is what really matters"

"I know my dear" he said, his lips found their way to her neck

"Don't" she said and pushed him away

"Now who's the one that is rejecting the other?" he asked

"It's just… I was thinking about him you know?" she said "And you're nothing compared to him" she said

"You wish" he snapped "I'm a lot more"

"Why do you think she didn't even pay attention to you?"

"Stop it bitch!" he yelled and slapped her on her face, she was staring at him with her eyes wide open, one of her hand was resting on her injured cheek.

"Look Bill" she said bitterly "It's not my fault" "I've satisfied you a lot of times, so don't bullshit me" she said roughly but patiently

"Is that a threat!"

"May be" her voice was sweet but dangerous at the same time "But maybe you're more interested in hearing news, after all you're paying me and your special treatment always makes me feel good"

"Anything new?" he asked, forgetting immediately about his previous actions, he needed to know.

"Shishio is already taking part in the mess" she said "It's not good for his "businesses""

"So he has finally found his guts" he said and laughed

"You know he's highly dangerous" she said and glanced at him nervously "Besides he's not the kind of man in which you can trust"

"Don't worry I won't" he said "But as long his participation benefits me, wich I'm certain it will for a long time, I don't care" he said so carefree

"Bill, you always made so rush decisions" she said "I really recommend you to think it carefully, very very carefully"

…………………………………………………………………………………………….

"What a beautiful sunset" he said to himself. The waves were gently crashing against the sand; everyone had started to leave the place, Soujiro was the only one that remained at a comfortable spot, with shoes on his hand and shirt half opened.

He refused to open his eyes as the images of her pretty face appeared in his mind, then it hit him, the painful thoughts of another man touching her and kissing her, bitter tears slipped silently from his eyes.

…………………………………………………………………………………………….

"Time to go?" Kaoru asked

"I'm afraid that it is time for us to go back to the yacht, it's getting late" he said and offered her a hand to pull her up.

"It wasn't just great?" she asked amazed of what her wonderful husband to be could do just for her

"Yes, I was, and it still will be, we haven't finish yet" and smiled at her sweetly

"Is there even more?" she asked innocently

"Course there is" he said and kissed her on the cheek.
