Author's Notes: This fic deals with some darker aspects of a normal, healthy, sex life. This fic deals with fetishes and such. Because of this, it is most definitely not for everyone. It doesn't not have a happy ending . . . it really doesn't have an ending at all . . . this is more or less a bunch of ficlets. Any way, the subjects covered will include: Bondage (just some tying down, nothing overly bad), Sex in a public area, talking dirty, spanking, ice cubes, and maybe even anal sex. (Not all in the same chapter) So, remember, not for everyone. But if you want something different and something that hasn't really been done before, (at least not often) this is your fic. I hope you enjoy!

Kamiya Kaoru carried the small box of food, practically dancing through the rain of cherry blossoms in the effort to help Kenshin find the 'perfect' spot for their blossom viewing. Kenshin carried the large blanket they had chosen to bring with them and kept up with her easily. Kaoru giggled, she loved cherry blossoms, the only thing better than the blossoms themselves, was sharing them with her soon to be husband, Kenshin.

Kaoru glanced back, grinning widely back at Kenshin who gave an answering smile that sent a shock through her. Although his eyes were presently violet, the smile was predatory. It shocked Kaoru. She stopped in mid skip, looking at Kenshin curiously. "Kenshin?" she inquired softly, looking back at him, her blue eyes meeting Kenshin's swirling violet orbs.

Kenshin's smile turned clueless instantly, but it somehow seemed like a mask to Kaoru, who stood watching him, her expression confused, "What, Kaoru-dono?" He asked, as if nothing was wrong at all.

Kaoru shook her head, as much as she loved Kenshin, she had given up on trying to understanding him a long time ago. "Mmm. Nevermind. " Kaoru answered softly then turned back around to resume the search for the perfect spot, "Let's keep looking for a great spot to watch the blossoms."

"Karou-dono," Kenshin's tone was simple with a bare hint of a question within it.

Kaoru turned around to face him again, to find he hadn't moved. Kaoru gave him a slightly confused look, "Hai, Kenshin?"

"What about right here? The cherry blossoms here are very beautiful, that they are."

"But Kenshin," Kaoru half-wailed, "There's no one else here. We'll be all alone."

Kaoru thought she saw Kenshin's eyes flash amber, but dismissed it as a fantasy when he looked right at her, his eyes their normal, sedate violet. "This unworthy one thinks it would be nice here, with just the two of us, that I do," Kenshin answered, the earlier smile pulling at his lips again.

"But Kenshin, cherry blossom festivals are supposed to be shared." Kaoru pouted as he spread the blanket out, smoothing it over the ground, "And there's no one else here."

Kenshin looked up at her and grinned yet again, "We're sharing it, with each other, as we'll share the rest of our lives. Don't you want to share with me?"

Kaoru smiled back. It didn't seem that bad when he put it that way. Just the two of them and the floating cherry blossoms, "Okay Kenshin," she answered simply, sitting down across from him and spreading the contents of the small basket on the blanket between them.

* * *

Kenshin wasn't watching the cherry blossoms. His attention was focused on the woman so enjoying the rain of pink flowers. Kaoru. She was perfect, a smile on her face, enjoying the food and drink brought with them. And they were alone. If she knew what he was planning, Kenshin was sure she would turn tail and run. His eyes flashed amber, and he grinned. He and his Kaoru were going to have some fun, he just had to convince her of it first.

Kaoru looked over at Kenshin, her expression miffed, "Mou, Kenshin! You're supposed to be watching the cherry blossoms, not me!"

Kenshin smiled softly, and reached out, stroking her cheek lightly, delighting in the feel of the soft flesh beneath his hand, "I think you're much more beautiful than the cherry blossoms, Kaoru." He growled out, purposely dropping the honorific on her name, knowing how it affected her.

She stared at him, mouth agape and he couldn't repress the urge to kiss her. He brushed his lips against hers, purposely keeping the kiss light. A simple brush against her lips, despite wanting more. So much more. Too much at once would scare Kaoru away.

Kaoru pulled away, "Kenshin, no, not out here," She hissed quietly, looking around nervously.

Kenshin's hand still languidly moved against Kaoru's cheek, "Why not, there isn't anyone else around. It's just us here, Kaoru," he finished, his tone darker and more clipped than usual. He wondered vaguely what color his eyes were, sure that they were no longer violet.

Kaoru bit her lip and gazed downward, unsure. The gesture sent a bolt of strong desire through him. Gods, she was beautiful, no, she was beyond beautiful. He moved forward again, taking her lower lip between his teeth, pulling gently, delighting in the way she gasped. Kenshin sucked lightly at her lower lip then pulled away slowly, keeping it between his teeth until the last possible moment. When he released it, his efforts were rewarded with a small moan from Kaoru.

Kaoru stared at him, her cheeks flushed her breathing heavy, her scent laced with desire. Kenshin grinned triumphantly; however, Kaoru was still tense. He could feel it. Kenshin tried to think of something to sway her more to his side, a game perhaps. Yes, a game.

"Kenshin?" Kaoru's tone of voice itself was a question.

Kenshin smiled slyly at her, sitting back on the blanket and looked at Kaoru, "What do you want to do, Koishii?" Kenshin asked, letting his playful mood slip into his voice.

Kaoru just stared at him blankly. Apparently he had robbed her of the ability to think. The thought sent a rush of male satisfaction through him.

Blushing furiously Kaoru covered her mouth with a balled up hand and sputtered out, "W-wha- What do you mean by mean by that Kenshin?!"

"What do you think I mean, Kaoru-dono?" Kenshin questioned, adding the honorific back on, playing with her.

Kaoru turned a bright shade of red as she answered, "No! Absolutely not!" she started shaking her head vehemently, "We can't do that. Not out here!"

Kenshin buried the laughter that threatened to bubble forth, so Kaoru's mind was already on sex, was it? That certainly didn't take long at all, and it made the prospect of playing with her that much more fun. Looking directly into her confused blue eyes, he spoke, "That? We won't do that unless you want too," Kenshin said, "I was thinking of something slightly more traditional, that I was."

"Oh," Kaoru responded and Kenshin thought she sounded a little disappointed, well if he had his way, then she wouldn't be despondent for long, "What do you mean, more traditional?" she asked, the furious blush fading, leaving her cheeks a light, and very becoming pink.

"Well, maybe some poetry perhaps, it's traditional to make haiku about the cherry blossoms, that it is." Kenshin answered, and besides that, poems provided the perfect opportunity to weave a net of words around her, a seductive net.

* * *

Kaoru smiled, almost laughing at herself, poetry huh? That at least was harmless. She racked her brain, trying to come up with an appropriate verse. True they were supposed to be made up on the spot, but Kaoru had never been good at such things. She looked over at Kenshin, his eyes an intoxicating mix of violet and gold. He was up to something, but at least his chosen activity was harmless. But she couldn't seem to come up with a verse. Kaoru bit her lip, why couldn't she think of one?

"Kaoru-dono?" Kenshin's tone was both playful and inquisitive and Kaoru shook her head.

"It's no good, Kenshin. I don't know any good verses," Kaoru sighed, plopping her head down on her hands with a defeated sigh.

"You're not supposed to recite poems you know Kaoru-dono," Kenshin said, the laughter in his tone obvious to Kaoru who gave him a mock scowl, "You're supposed to make them up on the spot, that you are."

Kaoru snorted, "Come on, Kenshin, no one really does that."

"Yes they do," he answered.

"No they don't," Kaoru said stubbornly. Well, at least no one she had met ever had. Her father had never been much for poetry or word games, preferring to say things straight out. A habit he had passed on to his daughter.

Kenshin shook his head, a real smile on his face, that alone made the day a success to Kaoru,

"Acknowledged beauty

The blossoms fall each year

Fading gently away."

Kaoru moved closer to Kenshin, her expression suspicious. She moved her face right next to his, "Kenshin. . ."

"Hai, Kaoru?" Kenshin answered. The tone of his voice made Kaoru start. His eyes, right now she was caught in his eyes. With their swirling rings of gold promising more pleasurable things than word play.

No! Snap out of it Kaoru! Not out here, where anyone could find us. Kaoru shook her head to clear it of her wayward thoughts. Collecting herself the best she could, she continued, "You pulled that out of a book, didn't you?"

Kenshin shook his head as he moved to clean the empty containers of food off the blanket, "No, Karou, I didn't."

"You had to have," Kaoru replied, more than slightly irked that her thoughts were wandering off track again, this time to the glances of his chest visible through his loose gi.

Kenshin finished moving the last of the items then turned to face her. This time Kaoru's attention caught by way the light sifting through the trees and cherry blossoms caught and reflected off his unusual hair. So lost was she in her thoughts that, when he spoke, the sound of his voice made her jump, "Your turn."

"What?"

"You're supposed to answer with a poem of your own, Kaoru," Kenshin said, coming to sit next to her, his close proximity making it hard for her to think about poetry and word play.

"But Kenshin, I can't," Kaoru said feeling a slight blush creep into her cheeks.

"Why not, Koishii, you're normally so good at things involving the use of your mouth."

"What?!" Kaoru squeaked as she turned completely red. He couldn't mean what she thought he did, could he? But what relevance did that have to anything? She looked up at Kenshin, who just had what she had come to call his 'rurouni grin' on his face. Innocent.

"You speak so well that a little poem shouldn't be a challenge for you at all." Kenshin said, as if nothing at all had been off about his previous statement.

"Oh," Kaoru breathed, then added under her breath, "That's what you meant."

Kenshin's eyes narrowed to amber slits as he grinned lazily, "What did you think I meant, Kaoru?"

Kaoru blushed and looked away quickly, "Nothing," She said hurriedly, "Nothing at all."

Kenshin just grinned and moved closer, "It's your turn, Kaoru," he said, his voice dragging on her name, its tone sending shivers up her spine.

Kaoru pressed her lips together and tried to string the words together correctly, it was just a poem after all. After a moment she was able to string the verse together correctly. Proudly, she presented her verse,

"Cherry blossoms fall

Silent beauty surrounds

Drifting on the wind."

Kenshin moved closer, their bodies almost touching. Kaoru swallowed, how was she supposed to concentrate on verses and poems when Kenshin's body touched her own in so many places. Even through their clothes she could feel the warmth of his body, it's hardness. Kaoru gulped, hardness. . .gods I have to get my mind out of the gutter. But. . .damnit, why does it have to be so hard! ARGH!

"Your turn," She barely squeaked out as his breath skimmed across the skin of her cheek.

Kenshin spoke, his lips brushing against her ear as he did so,

"The petals conceal

The inner sweetness like lips

Waiting for a kiss."

Kaoru gasped and turned her head to face him, their lips almost touching. But Kenshin never moved to kiss her. Her breath coming in heavy pants she asked why.

"Do you want me too?" Kenshin asked, his lips lightly brushing hers as he spoke.

Oh gods yes, Kaoru thought. Kenshin's very presence robbing her of the ability to speak, she only nodded. Slowly, Kenshin closed off the distance between them, his lips brushing lightly against hers in a gentle kiss. Once, then twice, then a third light, teasing kiss. Something inside Kaoru snapped and she was no longer content with the gentle brushing of lips that Kenshin was providing.

Kaoru took it upon herself to deepen the kiss between them, her arms wrapping around him. Then the rain of soft kisses and gentle touches Kenshin was bestowing upon her disappeared, replaced by a deep and burning passion as Kenshin responded to her, his hands threading through her hair, holding her face to his as their mouths battled in a fierce kiss.

Kenshin's hands moved down from her face, over her neck and shoulders, then down further cupping and kneading at her breasts, the sensation from his hands coupled with the sensations caused by the rubbing of the fabric against her skin. Her light summer kimono all of a sudden seemed oppressively hot and heavy. Without thinking, she leaned into the tender, knowing caress of his hands.

Kaoru almost wailed when Kenshin broke when Kenshin's hands moved away but it turned into a strangled gasp when his attentions drifted to her ear, bitting down. "May I?" He asked, accenting his question by pulling on the neck of her kimono, exposing her shoulders to the cool spring air.

She nodded, unable to find the words she needed to answer him. Kenshin chuckled, "You have to say it Koishii, otherwise, I won't do a thing," he said, starting to pull away.

"No, no!" Kaoru gasped her hands grabbing at Kenshin's gi, keeping him from retreating too far, "Don't stop! Don't!"

"Then tell me what you want, Kaoru."

"Touch me, please!"

"Where, Koishii?" Kenshin asked, his voice charged with laughter, his lips nuzzling at her neck, nipping softly at the flesh there, "Where do you want me to touch you? You have to tell me where you want me to touch you."

"Kenshin!" Karou begged, trying to move his hands back to her, needing his touch anywhere, everywhere.

"Where, Kaoru?" he growled into her neck, his hands intertwined in the sleeves of her kimono.

Kaoru bit her lip, Kenshin had never done this to her before, why had he started now. It simply wasn't fair to start doing this to her now, she blushed, she didn't think she could make herself say it, but if she didn't would Kenshin stop? Kenshin started to pull away yet again and Kaoru panicked, she couldn't endure it if he pulled away. The fleeting thought that they were outside, that anyone could by at any moment, didn't damper the ardor any, if anything, now it fired it. She couldn't take it if he pulled away, she couldn't!

"My breasts, where you were touching before, please Kenshin!" Kaoru managed to gasp out.

Kenshin laughed and his hands moved down to her breasts all right, over the fabric of her kimono. Kaoru let out an impatient moan, what was he doing? "Kenshin!"

"What Kaoru? I'm doing exactly what you said," the laughter in Kenshin's voice gave Kaoru the urge to slap him, an urge the quickly died when he bit her on the neck, then lazily moved his tongue over the small wound, making her shiver, "Was there something else you wanted? You'll have to tell me."

"Under the kimono. . .please. . ." Kaoru's voice trailed off on a gasp as Kenshin's hands pulled and loosened her kimono bunching it down around her arms, over her obi, trapping her arms and hands in place. His hands moved down to her breast bindings, brushing over them slowly, teasingly, the sensitive flesh beneath already crying out for his familiar touch.

"Do you want the bindings gone, Kaoru?" Kenshin asked, his deft fingers pulling at the strips of fabric while still managing to massage her breasts.

"Yes!" Kaoru practically screamed, then the sound of rending fabric reached her ears and a wash of cool air assailed her flesh. Kenshin growled, the sound making her shudder in response as Kenshin's strong hands moved over her exposed breasts, caressing, pulling, pinching. Kenshin took her mouth with his, his tongue plundering her, claiming her.

Kenshin pulled her closer crushing her into him. Some quick movements from Kaoru managed to free her arms from the prison her sleeves had created. Her hands free she reached for him, running her hands over his shoulders, his chest, one hand making its way to his hair, deftly pulling out Kenshin's hair tie, releasing the crimson waves to fall around his shoulders. Kenshin's response was simple and swift, his fingers quickly removing her own ribbon from her hair, letting it too, spill around her shoulders and down her back.

Kenshin's mouth moved from hers yet again but any words Kaoru could muster to protest the change were drowned out as he moved down to her bared chest and took one aching nipple in his mouth, biting down then taking suckle easing away the small pain the bites with the touch of lips. His hands moving over her arms, her shoulders, her neck, down her back, all over.

Kaoru tried to wiggle closer to him, needing more than what he was offering her, more than what he was giving. Kenshin let out a breathy laugh as if the situation amused him then Kaoru felt his tongue move over her skin stopping at her neck and bit down there, making her shudder and moan. More, she needed more.

"What do you want me to do, Kaoru?" he growled out, scrapping his teeth against her neck, moving farther up with each graze of teeth on flesh, "You have to tell me what you want me to do."

"Kenshin, I need you!" Kaoru wailed, getting close enough to scrape her own teeth over his neck, only to kiss the same spot desperately.

"Need me to what?" Kenshin ask, teasing her by running one of his strong hands under her kimono, pulling it up around her legs, brushing quickly against the part of her that cried out the most for his attention before withdrawing his fingers quickly, moving instead to draw lazily circles over her exposed thigh. "Tell me what you need."

"Kenshin," Kaoru practically sobbed out his name, choking on her need, on her desire, "Please. . ."

Laughing softly, Kenshin took her hand and guided down to his hakama and pressed it to him. Kaoru gasped, even through the fabric his hard arousal was painfully obvious. She moved her hand over it, rubbing it through the layers of fabric, trying to convey without words exactly what she desired of him. Kenshin moved into her touch and Kaoru tried to move even closer into him, begging him with out words.

"If you want it Koishii, take it," Kenshin whispered his voice dark and silky, shaking Kaoru to the core. She looked up, gazing into his eyes to be greeted by twin orbs of gold. It stole Kaoru's breath from her, shaking her to the core, "Take it," he repeated, his lips brushing against her cheek.

With trembling hands Kaoru reached out and worked at the knot on Kenshin's hakama, untying it as quickly as she could with her shaking hands. She freed his length and took it in her hands, stroking at the hard, hot flesh desperately. The entire time inching closer to Kenshin.

Kenshin's hand fisted in Kaoru's hair he gave her another rain of passionate and fiery kisses, devouring her mouth with his. The whole time Kaoru could feel the falling blossoms brush her bare skin and the sun warming her back. But these sensations were nothing compared to Kenshin's hands, Kenshin's mouth and even the sensation of simply being the target of it, being the one that he wanted.

"Kenshin. . ." she gasped, as he again scraped the skin of her bared shoulder with his teeth, "I want you, please, I need you."

"Where, Koishii, where do you need me?"

The question confused Kaoru, what did he mean where? It should be pretty damn obvious, she thought, was Kenshin playing with her? "Inside, I want you inside me."

"Where?"

"Kenshin!" Kaoru snapped, confused and irked, now he was just teasing her, she was sure of it.

"Kaoru," He returned, "There are three very different places I could fit inside of you. You have to be more specific."

"Three?" Kaoru asked, she could only think of two.

Kenshin grinned and moved one hand over her mouth lightly, "One." His hand moved again, slowly down her breasts, stopping for a moment to brush over her taught nipple before moving down lower and stopping between her legs and entering the folds there, "Two." His hand moved again over her hips and around her bottom, the touch painfully light and teasing, before slipping into a place Kaoru had always thought completely off limits. Her eyes shot open wide and she gasped, it wasn't a bad feeling, just odd. "Three," he finished simply.

Kaoru gave Kenshin a shocked look and shook her head vehemently. The whole idea of it there seemed impossible.

"No? A pity, I would very much like to try it there," Kenshin said, moving in deeper until pulling out slowly, "That leaves two choices, Koishii."

Kaoru buried her head in Kenshin's shoulder and moved herself into his lap, "Inside me, Kenshin," She whimpered needily, tired of the games, tired of the teasing, the desire for him overpowering.

Kenshin wrapped his arms around her and kissed her ear, she could feel the smile against her skin, "Out here, Koishii? Anyone could find us?" He said, the tone of his voice gave away the joke in the statement.

"I don't care," Kaoru said, nuzzling his shoulder, the fabric of his gi soft on her cheek, "I need you, Kenshin. . ."

* * *

Kenshin grinned. He had her. Perfect. Grasping her hips he lifted her up, then slowly pulled her down, sliding into her slowly. Sheathing himself deep inside her warmth, holding her there for a long moment her body shaking in his arms.

He held her tightly when she tried to move, stopping her from creating the friction that they both wanted, both needed more than anything. He had given her the illusion of total control and now that Kenshin had her where he wanted, it was time to take over.

Kenshin pulled Kaoru up slowly, until just the tip of him was inside. For a maddeningly long moment he held her there, not moving despite the struggle she put up. Then he pulled her down over him again, hard, drawing a deep moan from her. Biting her shoulder, Kenshin pulled Kaoru up again then pulled her down just as hard, thrusting upward as he did so, forcing himself deeper inside of her. The warmth, the wetness, the tightness conspired to shatter the control he held over her, over himself. Then it snapped and he drove her fiercely, comma thrusting into her again and again.

Outside on a blanket under the floating pink blossoms Kenshin pumped into Kaoru, kissing her deeply, their tongues doing battle in a dance reminiscent of their frenzied joining. She was almost too much for him, every part of her driving him insane, making the blaze between them a raging inferno. In the distance the sound of voices could be heard, footsteps coming closer. Kaoru heard it too, and she tensed immediately the realization that their tryst might not stay private apparently dawning on her. But Kenshin didn't stop.

"Kenshin, there are people coming, stop!" Kaoru hissed out, the last words strangled on another low moan which he could tell she had tried to fight down.

"No," he answered simply, pulling her down on him harder, slamming in to her, "I'm not stopping."

"Kenshin. . .no. . .stop. . ."

"No," Kenshin said, her body was betraying her, "You're getting wetter Kaoru, I think you want to be caught," He growled out, her enhanced arousal pushing him on, taking him higher with her, "I think you want to be found like this."

Kaoru gasped, he could tell she was almost there, she just needed a push over the edge. Kenshin leaned down, looking over her generous bust. Grinning ferally he bit down on one full mound. The result was instantaneous, Kaoru screamed as her inner muscles clenched around him. Kaoru's pleasure complete, Kenshin took the necessary steps to relive his own need. A few more deep, hard thrusts and then he buried himself in her, crushing a still shaking Kaoru to his chest, shuddering as his own release sent him plummeting over the edge, filling her. The voices they had heard faded into nothing, the people having moved by without even seeing them.

Gasping for breath Kenshin just held Kaoru close, his hand running through her hair her breathless laughter brushing against his neck.

* * *

It had taken another half an hour before Kaoru had been able to fix her kimono enough for them to walk back to the dojo. Kenshin's amusement over her plight of how to fix the garments disarray without untying the obi had almost earned him a beating. But they were finally able to start heading back to the dojo.

Kaoru walked behind Kenshin, blushing furiously, her thoughts still on the events of the afternoon. Looking back, she was sure he had planned the whole thing. Kenshin had insisted on coming out alone, without telling anyone else at the dojo. Kenshin had insisted on a semi-isolated spot. Kaoru wasn't sure what scared her more, the fact that Kenshin had planned this whole tryst of theirs, or the fact that she had willingly gone along with it.

Kaoru was still blushing when they made it back to the dojo and walked through the gates. Within seconds they were assaulted by a hyper active Yahiko, "Hey Kenshin, Ugly, where were you two?"

"We were out viewing the cherry blossoms, that we were," Kenshin answered calmly.

Yahiko puffed out his cheeks, the gesture made him look more like a stuffed squirrel than angry, Kaoru thought and she couldn't repress the giggle that bubbled forth.

"What fun is it going to watch cherry blossoms by yourself?" Yahiko returned, irked.

Kenshin looked back at Kaoru and smiled, the look of a devil in his eyes, "There are some things that a couple has more fun doing when they're alone," he answered. Kaoru stopped in her tracks and turned beat red, "Isn't that right, Kaoru-dono?"
