Chapter 4

Dinner at the Dojo

Saitou was still flushed a bit from the kiss he gave Faith just a minute ago, but was more surprised to hear that Faith actusually wanted him to kiss her. 'What's going on with me?' Faith asked herself leaving Saitou's office to find Yahiko sitting in the chair right outside of Saitou's office with his eyes closed.

Faith: "Yahiko?" She asked touching his arm.

Yahiko: "I'm alright Faith don't worry." He said standing up.

Faith: "Shall we go home now, Yahiko?" She asked looking at him.

Yahiko: "Yeah we had better Kaoru and Kenshin are probably wondering ware we are." He said walking out the front door on to the street.

Yahiko and Faith walked home in silence. Yahiko was tired of the silence so he had to ask Faith what happened in Saitou's office after he had left.

Yahiko: "Faith?" He asked looking at her.

Faith: "Mmm." She said as a response.

Yahiko: "What happened between you and Saitou when I left?" He asked.

Faith: "He kissed me and I kissed him back." Faith said smiling at Yahiko.

Yahiko: "He what?" Yahiko asked in surprise.

Faith: "He kissed me." Faith said remembering the kiss.

Yahiko was speechless that Saitou of all people would actusually kiss a girl especially a girl like Faith, but he had to admit if he were older he would too. Faith looked down at Yahiko and giggled at the expression on his face it was absolutely priceless. Yahiko looked at her and then her giggling got to him and he himself started laughing. When they reached the front gates to the Dojo they heard a loud crash and then a boom, they both looked at each other and opened the gate to find a very grumpy Sano and an even more ticked off Kaoru plus a snickering Kenshin.

Faith: "What happened?" Faith asked seeing Sano on the ground.

Sano: "Hey their second lil missy." Sano said smiling up at Faith.

Faith: "Hello Sano and what did you do to miss Kaoru?" She asked seeing Kaoru glaring at him.

Kenshin: "Sano came up behind Kaoru and well lets just say…" Kenshin didn't finish his sentence seeing Saitou at the front gate.

Faith turned around to see Saitou and blushed just as red as before, Saitou just smirked at Faith and walked up to the group.

Sano: "What are you doing here Saitou?" Sano yelled standing up.

Saitou: "For your information Faith invited me." He said looking at Faith.

Faith: "Y-Y- yes, that's correct." She said tripping over her words.

Kaoru: "Are you alright, Faith?" She asked seeing Faith bright red.

Faith: "Yes, Miss Kaoru, I'm alright." She said turning to Kaoru.

Saitou was right behind Faith he could easily wrap his arms around her waist, but thought best not to do it in front of everyone then again he could do it just to get Sano even more grumpy. 'Decisions, decisions?' Saitou thought to himself trying to figure out what would be best 'Ah, heck with decisions!' Saitou thought as he wrapped his arms around Faith's waist. Faith jumped when Saitou all of a sudden put his arms around her waist she was about to protest, but couldn't get her mouth to work properly. 'What is Saitou doing?' Faith asked her self as she felt Saitou breathing on her neck.

Faith: "Saitou?" She asked trying desperately not to blush.

Saitou: "Yes, my love?" He asked her in her ear.

Faith was now bright red and getting brighter by the second, plus to make it worse she couldn't think straight and she didn't know what was going on with her body or with Saitou for that matter. Saitou noticed that she had surrendered her protest and was holding still and no longer trying to make him let go of her, Saitou was so wrapped up in missing with Faith senses that he totally forgot about Sano and the rest of the group until he felt the handle of a sword in his stomach. Saitou looking to see who it was and it surprise him that it was Faith and not whom he had original thought it was, Kenshin.

Saitou: "Hmm, I see you have learned the art of surprise, my sweet." He said letting go of her.

Faith: "Yes, and you shall learn to behave around others, Saitou my dear." She said putting the sword back in its sheath all the way.

Everyone was wide eyed at the site unfolding right before them Saitou had just called Faith 'my sweet' and not moments after did Faith call Saitou 'my dear' both Faith and Saitou had a grins on there faces as if saying I dare you. Faith was still watching Saitou but she had to turn her head to see what was making that sound that caught her attention.

"Excuse me?" Asked a young man about the same age as Kenshin.

Everyone turned their attention to the young man standing at the front gate with a smile gracing his magnificent fetchers.

"I'm looking for…Faith?" The young man said surprised to see her standing there.

Faith: "Yes that is my name." Faith said moving away from Saitou.

"You look just as beautiful as before." The young man exclaimed.

Faith: "You know me?" Faith asked.

"Yes." The young man said watching her.

"Uh, Miss Kaoru I see you have found Faith." The young man said now looking at Kaoru.

Kaoru: "H-how do you know my name?" Kaoru asked.

Sano: "Hey buddy who are you?" Sano asked looking the young man straight in the eyes.

"Oh I'm sorry I for got to tell you didn't I?" The young man asked with a smile.

Kenshin: "Answer the question." He said getting angry with this young man.

"Uh, well if it isn't Kenshin Himura or should I say Battousai." The young man said watching Kenshin.

Kenshin: "Yes, that is me but I'm no longer the Battousai, that I am not." He said with a smile.

Faith: "Enough both of you!" Faith said now angry with the young man for stalling.

Saitou: "Take it easy Faith." Saitou said walking up to her.

Faith: "I'm sorry." Faith said looking down.

"Think nothing of it Miss Himura." The young man said waiting to she her reaction to the name.

Faith: "What did you call me?" Faith asked stepping closer to the young man.

"Miss Himura of course since that be your maiden name." The young man said stepping back away from Faith.

Everyone was shocked to hear that Faith's last name was Himura. Kenshin was the most surprised of them all because he him self was starting to notice that Faith in her own way resembled him, her eyes being purple and her hair though it's not red it's brownish purple. Saitou looked back and forth from Kenshin to Faith and back again to the young man glaring at Saitou, himself.

Saitou: "What's wrong with you kid?" Saitou asked still shocked to hear the news.

"I am not a kid I am twenty-nine, thank you very much." The young man said in an annoyed tone.

Saitou: "What is your name?" He asked and every body turned toward them.

"I am Dashiki Royu." Answered the young man.

Faith looked at the young man named Dashiki Royu in amazement that she recognized the name plus kind of recognized him from when she was with Aoshi and Misao in Kyoto.

Faith: "I know you." Faith said out of the blue.

Dashiki: "You do?" He asked.

Faith: "Yes, you were talking to Aoshi." She said smiling.

Dashiki: "That is correct, miss Faith." He said walking up to her now.

Faith: "And you had told him my real name and last name, as well." She said looking at him.

Dashiki: "Yes that is all so correct." He said reaching out his hand.

Faith took a step away from him and was now looking at him like what the heck do you think you are doing. Dashiki ignored the look and took a step forward causing Faith to take another step back. Saitou and Kenshin stepped in front of Dashiki blocking his path to Faith.

Kenshin: "I advise you to say away from… My sister." He said putting his hand on his sword handle.

Saitou: "I agree with Kenshin." Saitou said also putting his hand on his sword handle.

Dashiki: "Really now? Saitou why are you protecting Faith?" Dashiki asked with a smirk.

Saitou: "That is none of your business." Saitou snapped.

Dashiki didn't seem fazed by the remake, for you see he was more worried about Mr. Himura then Mr. Saitou because Mr. Himura was Faith's brother and Saitou was just… Well Dashiki didn't quit know. Faith was behind the two men who were protecting her from Dashiki but Faith knew she could at least take care of her self, but she didn't press the matter as she was in between two men that cared about her very much, her brother and… She didn't quiet know what to conceder Saitou as of right now.
