Chapter 2: Trouble for Kaoru. And Sano?
Kenshin wasn't the boss of her.Kaoru felt like a child again, sneaking out of her own house-most notably, out of her own bedroom window. Sano would go nuts if he found out she'd gone and gotten herself into trouble with Kenshin, again, she knew. It was the same old argument day after day. Kaoru was convinced that she was perfectly fine on her own, without anyone's help, and everyone else was convinced otherwise.
She was certain that she didn't need help, especially not from Kenshin.
"Ugh", she groaned. She felt like an outsider in her own home. Kenshin was just so much better at everything. She'd never felt so inadequate...
She heard distant footsteps and hurried to duck down into the brush. Had Sano come after her? No, it must have been Yahiko playing a trick. Kenshin would be too busy with late night housework to bother and the girls were fast asleep.
"Looking for someone?"
Kaoru turned abruptly and was met with a pair of dark brown eyes.
"Sanosuke," she said, relieved. Maybe, she wasn't as valiant as she liked to imagine
"What are you doing out here Missy?"
"Just getting some air. You?"
"I come out here to watch the stars sometimes." He shrugged. "Oh, and Kenshin was looking for you."
"I don't need a babysitter."
"Kenshin seems to think you do."
"What do you think?"
"Things are just bad and getting worse everyday. That's my excuse. Kenshin and I are here to protect you. That's all."
Things were changing. The Meiji era was coming to an abrupt end, signaling fundamental changes in the social structure, internal politics, economy, military, and foreign relations of Japan. There was a lot of fighting and tensions were high.
"I know Kamiya Kasshin style. I am capable of protecting myself."
"We know, we know. It's in out nature, us men, to protect those we care about. What's the harm in that?"
She guessed Sano was right, but that didn't make her feel any better about Kenshin.
"I'll walk you back."
"Thanks Sano."
She could finally get some sleep. Talking to Sano had made her feel substantially better. She was lucky to have him around as a friend and companion, though, she often wondered if Sano ever saw her as more than that. No. Sano liked his women tall and dark, and he didn't seem even remotely interested in her.
No one did.
And besides, Kaoru concluded, she was nothing like Megumi.
"I'm fine by myself." She harrumphed, dozing off.
But Kenshin never cooked this late, Kaoru thought, alarmed.
She had overslept having been up so late last night. She stretched and got dressed. She was starving, and admittedly, she was glad to sleep in now that Kenshin had claimed sovereignty over her kitchen.
"Good morning Ms. Kaoru." Said Kenshin. He seemed especially sunny, considering she'd snuck out last night against his wishes. She, better than anyone, knew that Kenshin was well aware of her departure. Yahiko was especially good at sucking up to Kenshin, despite his loyalty to Kaoru as his teacher, and he wouldn't hesitate to rat her out whenever he got the chance to.
"Where's everyone else?"
"I sent them out for lunch."
Batousai.
Kaoru kept her eyes lowered. If the others went into town, then they were all alone-just she and the Batousai. She never expected to be alone with the man slayer. Having Sano and Yahiko around is what gave her the courage to speak out against the tyrant.
"I'm actually not very hungry."
"Sit."
"Excuse me Kenshin?"
Batousai, cleared the table with one quick sweep. The dishes shattered and everything Kenshin had prepared, lay spattered on the kitchen floor.
"I could have you, right here, right now if it pleased me." Batousai smirked. Kaoru stared at him wide eyed. This was something deep, deeper even, than the Batousai.
"Kenshin?" Kaoru said, meekly. "Kenshin, is that you?"
Batousai laughed, but the jubilance didn't reach his golden eyes.
"You could have gotten killed last night."
"I was with Sano."
"You disobeyed a direct Order."
"I'm not one of your little soldiers, Kenshin."
"Oh?"
"You can't treat me like a second class citizen in my own home."
Kenshin, with inhuman speed, reached Kaoru before she could storm off like she often did when they argued. "Ms. Kaoru, I would never treat you like a second class citizen when you deserve, so much more, to be treated as Kenshin's consort."
Kenshin's consort? She could smell Batousai's breath, feel the heat radiating from his own flesh. Her body was betraying her. She shouldn't have been excited. She was angry and frustrated and Kenshin wasn't there to reassure her.
Kaoru backed away, and ended up pinned between a hungry eyed Batousai.
"I want you Kaoru." He whispered hoarsely. "Tell me what you want."
Kaoru flushed. She'd never met this side of the Batousai before. Her legs felt like gelatin. The only thing keeping her up now, was her unwillingness to appear weak in front of the Batousai-one of the strongest, most valiant men in Japan.
She was a fighter first and a proper woman, last.
"We're home!" Called Sano from the courtyard. Batousai was there and gone within seconds.
That narcissistic bastard! Kaoru seethed. The Batousai had an ego as big as all Japan.
"Just in time for some board games." Said Kenshin, his sunny disposition returning as if it'd been there all along. And maybe it had. Perhaps Kenshin and the Batousai were two completely different entities. The Batousai wanted her, but maybe Kenshin didn't, and how could she possibly be with one and not the other.
"You alright Missy?" Asked Sano.
"She looks like a deer." Laughed Yahiko.
"Oh, I'm fine, just tired."
Kenshin gave her a momentary once over. He enjoyed letting the Batousai take over every now and again and at this rate, he'd have Kaoru properly.
Little did she know, he'd already claimed her as his-He, and the Batousai.
Kaoru took a seat at the kitchen table, still flushed from her close encounter with the Batousai.
"So, what did you guys do?"
"Not much." Said Sano, putting his feet up. "A little bit of this, a little but of that."
The girls raced in from their bedroom and climbed into Kenshin's lap.
"Good Morning Kenshin!"
"Why hello there. My two favorite girls." Kenshin smiled.
It was odd, Kaoru thought, that Kenshin and the Batousai were so...different. Still, she wasn't going to let either of them get the best of her and what if this was all just some joke anyway? She shivered at the thought. Why would the Batousai, one of the strongest men in japan, be interested in her bokken wielding self? Was this the Batousai's way of using her weaknesses against her? To finally break her down into the kind of woman he expected her to be? What a cruel thing to do, cruel even, for the Batousai.
Kaoru got teary eyed thinking about it.
"What's wrong Missy? Something happen?"
"I'm going to go to my room now." She cried, racing from the kitchen with Sano close behind.
Kenshin hated to see Kaoru cry and wondered what she might have been thinking. He'd have to contemplate later. He didn't want the girls to see him all disconcerted
"Missy wait up!" He got her by the shoulders and whipped her around to face him. She had tears streaming down her pretty pink face. "Talk to me."He'd never seen Kaoru cry, not even when she had good enough reason too-too resilient for her own good.
"No one likes me." She sniffled. "What's wrong with me? Do you think I'm ugly Sano?"
"You're one of the most beautiful women I know Kaoru. How could you think that?" He took her chin between his fingers and kissed her gently. Kaoru melted. She'd never been kissed so sweetly before. She'd never been kissed ever.
A first Kiss? She never thought in a million years that her first kiss would be with Sano.
Sano went in for another and Kaoru eagerly obliged.
Sano probed for entry. Kaoru opened for him, and Sano enjoyed her sweetness. She tasted sweet like honey and her lips were soft and smooth. Sano moved to cradle the back of her head as he explored her beautiful, sweet mouth.
He'd always had a thing for Kaoru, but as far as he knew, she only saw him as a friend-a brother rather than a lover. He was well aware that Kaoru loved him, and he loved her back, but this was the icing on the cake. This was something he'd only dreamt about.
Kaoru felt his hardness and blushed, finally moving to pull away.
"Sano. I want...more." She blushed.
Sano was hesitant. Kaoru, after all, was still a virgin, but he wanted her more than anything.
"After everyone goes to sleep. Okay, Missy?"
Kaoru nodded and the two went their separate ways momentarily. Kaoru was excited, and daunted. She'd never actually been made love to before, but if it was going to be anyone, she thought, Sano was the perfect candidate. He was strong and sweet and brave.
Hours passed and Sano never came. She was certain everyone had gone to bed by now. What was keeping him?
Kaoru got concerned and went to check on him, but the Batousai was guarding her door.
"I sent him away." He said, in a low voice. Kaoru was far from impressed.
"I don't need you Kenshin." She attempted to brush past him, but he gripped her arm and kept her from going any further.
"You should get some rest."
"Let me go Kenshin."
"Behave Kaoru."
"I'm not your child Batousai!" Kaoru reared back, and smacked Kenshin as hard as she could. This was the last straw. Kenshin had gone too far, getting involved in her love life.
And what did he care.
She was a target in his eyes, she assumed.
"We should keep our hands to ourselves Ms. Kaoru, that we should." Kenshin was surprised. Kaoru had never openly acknowledged the Batousai before. He was fascinated and undeniably aroused by her tenacity.
It was Kenshin, Kaoru thought. She'd smacked sweet little Kenshin when It was that damned Batousai she'd have liked to pummel, she seethed.
"If there is anything you need, Ms. Kaoru, I suggest you come to me first."
Kaoru wondered if Kenshin knew what had happened between she and Sano and even if he did it was none of his business. Her love life was none of his business.
Kaoru shut the door in Kenshin's face and went to bed feeling utterly unfulfilled.
