Always Friends

Thoughts `….'

Talking "…."

Sakura Street

Chapter 2

When I got to the kitchen I found Misao cooking some eggs. She looked up and saw me walking towards her and she gave me a big bright happy smile. I took a seat and looked at her.

"Misao when are you going to tell me where we are going?" I asked. She giggled and didn't say anything. I signed. `I'm not going to get anything out of her' I thought. She came and put the eggs and toast in front of me. I thanked her and ate it happily.

Once we finished eating breakfast Misao stood up. "Ok Kaoru lets get going" she said. I smiled and got up and we left.

We were walking down the street to get to the train station. It was a big walk to get there but I didn't mind. It was really busy today, the cars we driving by fast trying to show off at some of the girls and I smiled.

When we finally got to the train station and boy was it busy.

People were pushing and weaving their way to get through the crowd. I looked at Misao and she was as shocked as I was.

"I never knew it could get this busy" she said. I shrugged and started to walk. I bumped into someone and I fell over.

I got angry and looked up. There was a very tall man with spiky brown hair and chocolate brown eyes.

For some reason he reminded me of a chicken. `Probably because he has a long neck.' I thought.

I got up and looked at him. "Watch were ya walkin would ya!" I said. He frowned.

"You should watch were your walking, you were the one that bumped into Me." he said and walked pasted me.

I turned around and shouted "Rooster-head" and that got his attention. "What did ya call me?" he asked angrily.

"I called you a rooster-head because you remind me of one!" I said angrily and grabbed Misao's arm and walked off.

He said something but I couldn't hear it.

Misao didn't say anything. We waited for the train then she spoke up.

"What a dick head." She said, I giggled.

"All well doesn't matter, something like that was bound to happen." I said. Then the train finally came.

We got in and took a seat. I sat next to the window and looked out. Misao sat across from me. I saw some tall man running for the train.

"Hey Misao look who it is." I said while pointing at the guy. She looked and started to laugh.

The train started to take off. And he didn't get in. I stuck my tongue out at him when we went passed him. He narrowed his eyes at me and I laughed at him.

I then looked at Misao, "So we are going to town?" I asked. She nodded and smiled. "And then where are we going?" I asked.

"Not telling." She said. Then she looked at something.

I tilted my head to the side a bit. Someone sat next to me and I looked at the person. My eyes narrowed at him annoyed.

"Were you laughing at me because I didn't get in the train?" he asked. "How did you…" "I have my ways." He smirked.

"Sagara Sanosuke" he said. I smiled. "Kamiya Kaoru and this is my room-mate Makatachi Misao" he nodded at Misao.

"Kamiya Kaoru…why does that ring a bell…" said Sanosuke. I looked at him puzzled.

He put his hand on his chin and narrowed his eyes thinking.

"Ahh yeah that's right, your Akira's girlfriend!" he said. I looked away from his gazed out the window.

"Not any more" I said quietly. "He dumped you?" he asked. I nodded. "Bastard" he said. I looked at him.

"Are you one of his friends?" I asked. "No not really I just say hi to him sometimes. He works were I do. Umm…if you don't mind me asking but did he go back to his ex Tomoe?" he asked.

"Yeah…he did" I said. He looked at the ground.

"Poor Kenshin…"he said. "Who's Kenshin?" I asked. "Oh just a mate of mine. He was going out with Tomoe and he said to me that he was going to ask Tomoe's hand in Marriage" Sano said sadly. My eyes softened. "Poor thing…" I said softly.

Then I got an idea. "Hey Misao what about we go out some other time and we can go and cheer up Sano's friend?"

"Yeah let's go. I bet he would be really down right now!" she said. I looked at Sano.

"What do ya say?" I asked. "Hell yeah!" he said.

"Where does he live?" I asked. "He lives in town. On Sakura St." he said.

"Is that the place were all the cheery blossom trees are?" I asked. Sano nodded.

"I love that places it's heaps nice there."

We got off the train and got into a taxi and drove off to Kenshin's place.

We got there at around lunchtime. We walked up to the front door. It really was a nice house. Two stories, with big windows, and it was wooden all over, a pine looking colour. Sano knocked on the door. There was no answer. He knocked a bit louder this time. Still no answer.

"Kenshin I know your in there Open up or I'll brake the door down" he shouted. "Go away Sano I won't to be left alone." Was a soft, quiet, sad voice that replied.

"I'm not going until you let us in!" he shouted again.

"Us?" was the answer we got.

"Yeah that's right us. You don't won't to keep these lovely girls out side in the cold do you." Sano said while looking at us with a smirk.

"Sanosuke if they are prostitute fuck off." He said in a deep angry voice.

`Prostitute's' I though. `How dare he think we're prostitute's what a fucking bastard'

I got really angry now and so did Misao.

"How dare you call me a prostitute you fucking bastard. You are not the only one that just got dumped. Let's go, leave him to suffer in his own self pity." I shouted so he could hear.

I started to walk down the steps when the door came open. "Pity! How do you know what pity is. You didn't just get dumped by the person whom you wonted to send the rest of your life with." He shouted back at me.

His eyes were a golden amber colour with a bit of violet swirling around aimlessly, his hair was a red fiery colour and he was kinda short but had a good body. I really got pissed off.

"You don't know anything. We came here to cheer you up because of what happened to you, oh and yeah; the girl that dumped you went with my boyfriend. I may not feel as bad as you do but I still have feelings and it fucking hurts like hell because he was the one I loved. THE ONE I LOVED THE VERY FIRST ONE THAT I LOVED!" I shouted back and I ran off crying.

"KAORU!" I heard Misao shout.

I wonted to run after her. Today was a meant to be a good one, not a bad one. I turned back to the guy that we WERE going to cheer up. "I hope you are really happy Himura" I shouted and ran after Kaoru.

I was stunned. I didn't know what to do. I felt really bad. I looked down at my feet so that my band covered my eyes.

"I-I…I didn't…know…" I said. "Well you should have though before you said something," said Sano. I looked at him.

"Why did you come here anyway!" I asked angrily. Sano looked at me and told me the hole story from were they dumped into each other in the train station.

"She wonted…to cheer me up…" I asked a bit stunned. He nodded.

I looked where she had ran off too. `Why would someone wont to cheer me up…I'm to unworthy of that kind of treatment…I have to do something I cant just stand here…she must feel the same pain that I am after what happened…' I thought and ran after her.

I didn't have any idea where I was running but I was just letting my feet take me to where ever.

I ran across the road and over to the park lands. I got to the footpath and I ran over to the river. I stopped when I got there.

`I hope that her friend hasn't found her yet' I was looking at the river and my eyes travelled up the stream to where some of the cherry blossom trees where.

I saw a black figure at one of the trees sitting down.

`That has to be her' I thought. I ran around the stream to where the bridge was and ran across it.

I finally got to the trees and slowed my paste down. I got to a walk and I stopped a few feet away from her. She was still crying and sodding.

I took a deep breath and let it out. I walked over to her slowly. I stopped at her right side and looked down at her. She stiffened and looked up.

Her face was puffy and red from crying. She narrowed her eyes at me. "W-what do y-you w-wont?" she asked.

I said nothing but kept looking at her.

"I-If you're not g-going to say a-anything go a-away" she said and looked away. I took another deep breath.

"I'm sorry…" I said softly. She took in a shaky breath and looked up at me.

"I shouldn't have reacted the way I did…I just…I don't know but I'm also sorry about how you had to go throw that kind of pain also…hah I guess we're both in the same situation huh?" I said with a small smile.

"I'm also sorry…I shouldn't have said the things that I did…" she said with a smile. I looked at her and she looked at me. I sat down next to her and looked out into the river. Her gaze soon too turned to the river.

"Did you really come here to cheer me up?" I asked.

She rested her head against the tree trunk and had a small smile on her face. "Yeah I did" I looked at her face and smiled for once. "That's very nice of you miss…err…"

"Kaoru, Kamiya Kaoru. Just call me Kaoru" she said "And you are?"

"Himura Kenshin…I guess this isn't a nice way to meet you after we just had a fight huh?" I said.

"It doesn't matter anymore what's done is done. There's nothing we can say or do can change what happened, all what we can do is start over again" Kaoru said with a smile. I smiled back at her.

"Alright then" I said "Hello my name is Himura Kenshin, Its nice to meet you…" she smiled and giggled.

"Hello nice to meet you Himura Kenshin, I'm Kamiya Kaoru". Kaoru opened her mouth to say something else but her friend came along.

"What on earth do you think you are doing Himura?" she asked.

"Misao it's alright we have made up for what just happened." Said Kaoru. She looked at Kaoru and said.

"Kaoru you shouldn't be so forgiving, you should have let him suffer more" she said while crossing her arms over her chest.

"Misao, I think he has enough on his hands, how would you feel if that happened to you?" Kaoru said while raising on of her eye brows. She said nothing. "Now let's all just forget about what just happened and go back to Kenshin's house and get to know each other better." stated Kaoru happily. She turned and looked at me.

"Well what do you say Kenshin?" I looked at her and then Misao and smiled.

"Ok sounds good. Anything to get things off my mind I guess." I said. Kaoru clapped her hands together, picked herself off the ground and had a bright smile on her face.

"Alrighty then…lets get going? Oh and Kenshin what happened to Sano?" asked Kaoru.

I got up and we started to walk back to my house. I thought for a bit.

"I really don't know Miss Kaoru I just ran after you so I don't know. His probably in the house finding some food to eat or something." I said while laughing a bit. Kaoru and Misao also joined.

`Well it seems that today isn't going to be as bad as I thought' I thought relived.
