Disclaimer: We don't own Rurouni Kenshin. SO there -.-/

It was time for bed. The words scared Karou. Kenshin was sleeping in her room! Not that she was sad or anything ^_^x She was nervous, she knew Kenshin had feelings for her, and he of course knew she had feelings for him. But they had never acted on these feelings. What would happen tonight. Nothing? Something? More? Who knew, she didn't. But maybe Kenshin did.
"Karou-dono? Can I come in?" Kenshin asked cautiously.
"Yes, I'm dressed." Oh yes, dressed she was. She was wearing some silky thing, that barely covered her, who knew what it was. Not Kenshin. Crazy thoughts ran through his head. She's so beautiful, I just wanna… don't go there Kenshin! She is pure and wonderful, and I don't deserve her. So drop those erotic thoughts.
Kenshin entered and laid his futon next to hers. Maybe a little to close to hers. Neither were complaining though. X_x
"If your uncomfortable with this, I can sleep in the hall." Kenshin said kindly. Of course, once again he thinks of everyone but himself. I can't let him sleep in the hall, its too cruel. Karou thought.
"Kenshin, it's ok, stay." Somehow the words sounded a little TOO inviting.
"If you say so." Kenshin replied.
He looks so…sexy in his night clothes, I can see his chest. It has battle scars, I want to touch those scars, and erase the pain.
Karou cautiously moved closer to Kenshin. She placed her hand on his cheek. "Karou-dono?" Kenshin said surprised.
"SHHH" Karou whispered. She placed her finger on his lips to quiet him. "Yahiko is sleeping next door." They both knew that Sano and Megumi were doing anything but sleeping. She ran her fingers through his hair, exploring uncharted territory. She then ran her lips over his crossed scar. She feeling him tense beneath her. "Relax Kenshin, let me love you, the way you should be loved." Karou whispered in his ear. She then parted his shirt and gazed at his scars. A tear came to her eye, he had been through so much.
Why is she doing this? Is she crying for me? I'm not worthy of her tears. He brushed her hair away from her face and wiped away her tears. "Don't cry for me Karou…" He didn't say Dono!! This is good, very good. And good it was. "I'm so sorry Kenshin, I'm sorry you had to be through so much, with Tomoe." Karou whispered.
"Don't speak of the past, look ahead, look at now. Aishiteru."
Kaou's eyes widened. Kenshin has spoken the words!! Oh how long I have been wanting to here those words, since the day he arrived here.
"Oh Kenshin, I love you too." Karou said with a happy sigh. She then kissed him with all the passion in her heart. Kenshin and Karou then expressed all the love that had been building inside of them. As the rain poured down gloomily outside, to hearts joined inside. Actually four hearts, if ya count Sano and Megumi ^_^x
