“Oh the people here are just lovely,” Kenshin sneered as horns blared and obscenities were shouted after.
“You’ll get used to it,” Saitou stated before instructing him to turn right.
They pulled up to a small café with a large sign reading ‘Tokio’s Café’ over the door in big white letters over black. There were two large tinted windows allowing insiders to peer out and keep the sun from blinding them. Tokio’s was the only store down a line that did not have an all glass front that you could see inside.
“This looks nice,” Kenshin commented as the door closed behind them. The room smelt like computers, he noted; Computers and hint of cherry blossoms.
The walls were a rich red accented with dark almost black mahogany crown molding. The counters were topped with black marble, and mahogany chairs with black leather seats where at each table. A long black marble counter ran along one of the walls, with round black leather seats aliened along it. Above each table was a glowing paper lantern with a Japanese symbol painted on it made entirely of red and white cloth. On the right side of the long black counter was a sectioned off area with several computers and wireless Internet hookups.
Strategically placed on walls were beautiful Japanese paintings made well into the eighteenth century with sculptures just as old setting in places everyone was sure to see. If people didn’t come here for the coffee or the Internet they came to view the art. To keep things interesting she’d changed them every now and again just because she was tired of seeing the same old thing. The floors were a white marble with black inlaid streaks running through it like lightning.
“Tokio has always been a classy woman with an eye for fine art,” Saitou commented.
“You a friend of the owner?” Kenshin asked as they took a seat at one of the tables.
“You could say that,” Saitou stated.
Kenshin arched a brow at the response before looking over the menu. He didn’t know this many different kinds of coffee existed he certainly didn’t give coffee that much thought.
“Impressive selection,” Kenshin commented.
“Yes I know. I taste tested and selected each and every one of them,” A woman’s voice sounded from behind Kenshin making him jump slightly before turning.
The woman was of average height and fair skinned with long black hair pulled halfway up in a bun with two cherry blossom hair pins holding it in place, while the rest flowed freely down to her lower back. Bangs to short to pull back framed two dark forest green eyes beautifully. She was attired in a black kimono top, with red flowers decorating the front and some of the back, and black slacks. Black Japanese styled sandals adorned her perfect sized shining red-toed feet.
“You have a very nice Café ma’am,” Kenshin stated with a friendly smile.
“Why thank you sir, and please call me Tokio,” she stated with equal friendliness, shaking hands with him.
“Good morning Tokio,” Saitou stated in greeting giving a small smile.
“Good morning to you too sweetie. Your usually not a social bee so I gather that this is your new partner that you so rudely have not introduced to me yet,” Tokio said in mock irritation.
“Tokio this is my new partner Kenshin Himura,” Saitou said gesturing to Kenshin.
“You are hopeless. Well enough chit-chat, what can I get you gentleman and Saitou?” Tokio asked crossing her arms.
Saitou resisted the urge to roll his eyes, while Kenshin just watched the exchange between them with mild amusement.
“Swiss Mocha,” They both stated in unison.
Saitou and Kenshin blinked at each other for a moment.
“No sugar, just creamer,” They stated at the same time.
“Oh yea we’re gonna get along just fine,” Kenshin smiled rather pleased.
Saitou nodded in agreement hoping to get along way better than fine in the future. Tokio watched them closely before a mischievous smile crept up on her lips.
“Coming right up guys,” Tokio said sweetly heading back to the kitchen.
Saitou eyed her suspiciously while Kenshin continued looking at all the different kinds of coffee blends. He still couldn’t believe that there was that many different ways to make coffee accidentally flipping the page to find a whole new list of different kinds of tea hot and cold.
“Whoa…” he stared.
“She’s up to something,” Saitou stated narrowing his eyes.
“Oh?” Kenshin asked, “What do you mean?”
“I don’t know what but I just thought I’d warn you to be on guard Himura,” Saitou stated, “she’s pretty sneaky when she wants to be”
“She just met me, why would I have to be on guard?” he frowned with slight concern.
“I know her and she has that look on her face that suggest she’s coming up with a god knows what project,” Saitou stated, “I just knew it was coming”
“You seem to know her pretty well. She your girlfriend?” Kenshin inquired curiously.
“No ex-wife actually,” Tokio stated placing their coffee’s and creamer on the table with a smile.
Saitou gave her a suspicious glance before putting creamer in his coffee.
“Really? You seem to get along so well though,” Kenshin said in surprise.
“Oh well it wasn’t a nasty divorce like most people now a days. He’s sweet, charming, attractively arrogant and dead sexy, nothing to be angry about there. We love each other still, we just aren’t in love with each other,” Tokio stated with a smile.
“Oh, well that’s good to hear,” Kenshin stated stirring his coffee before taking a sip, “ya know that you’re still close and all”
“Right then I’m just gonna leave you two to your coffee. If you need anything just give a shout,” Tokio said before leaving with a wink.
“She’s nice,” Kenshin stated.
“Usually unless you make her angry,” Saitou said.
Kenshin nodded in understanding, “women can be pretty vicious”
“So how long have you been on the force?” Saitou asked curiously.
“A little over three years”
“And already a respected detective,” Saitou smiled bringing the cup up to his lips but did not drink, “Impressive”
“I try,” he said casually with a slight shrug, “I don’t really think about it to be honest I just like what I do and I suppose if that means I do it well then so be it”
“Anything in particular I should know about working with you?” Saitou asked.
“Yea, I don’t like getting shot,” Kenshin chuckled.
“I don’t care to much for it either,” Saitou replied with an amused smile.
“Anything I should know about working with you?” Kenshin inquired curiously.
“It differs from person to person. We will just have too see,” a rather sexy unintentional smile spread across his lips.
Kenshin jumped when his cell phone interrupted the quiet murmur of the café with the ring tone ‘down with the sickness’ by disturbed. The loud screaming of the man on his phone brought the attention of few people who simply dismissed it as a simple annoyance.
“Excuse me a moment,” he murmured holding up a finger with a look of apology before answering it, “Himura”
“Hey bro would you do me a favor?” Shinta’s voice chimed over the other end of the line.
“Depends, what do you want?” he asked suspiciously.
“Kaoru made me lunch,” Shinta drawled, “and I can’t eat it because I think its alive. I swear I heard it call me momma”
“Oh you poor thing!” Kenshin chuckled crossing his ankle over his knee, “What would you like for me to pick up for you?”
“Um...Egg drop soup, and shrimp egg rolls,” Shinta said eagerly and licked his lips at the thought of actual food, “ah man that sounds good”
“All right bro I’ll get it to you in a little while,” he smiled glancing around the room, force of habit that he didn’t mind having. It was always good, he found, to be aware of your surroundings.
“You’re a life saver,” Shinta said thankfully, “if you were here I would kiss you!”
“Then I’m glad I’m not there,” he teased, “I’ll see you shortly and if you kiss me I’ll punch you”
“Mmm your no fun. Love ya!” Shinta said quickly as a nurse called his name, “yes?”
“Love you to,” Kenshin smiled hanging up because he knew full well even if Shinta was on the phone with you and he was working he wouldn’t hear a damn word you said until he was done. Selective hearing was curse amongst them. He put his phone away looking over at Saitou who was staring at him. For some strange reason he felt his face heat at Saitou’s intense gaze.
“Um... yea my brother needs me to pick up some Chinese food and run it to him. You know any good places?” Kenshin asked looking away hastily.
Saitou hid a smirk at the soft blush gracing Kenshin cheeks; something about it arose naughty thoughts and images. “I know a good Japanese place a few miles from here,” Saitou stated, “I know its not Chinese but-”
“That will be fine,” Kenshin replied quickly.
“Would you like me to drive? Shinomori will be expecting us back soon,” Saitou asked almost as if he knew that if he let Kenshin drive they were going to be late.
“Sure, but careful with my car,” Kenshin replied tossing him the keys, before going for his wallet to pay.
“Don’t worry about the bill boys,” Tokio said waving the money away, “Its on me”
“I can’t-,” Kenshin began with a frown.
“Yes you can I just said so,” Tokio said with a smile, “don’t forget this is my place”
“I wouldn’t argue with her Himura,” Saitou warned seriously, “you won’t win even if your right, trust me”
Kenshin laughed and put his money away, “Alright if you’re sure”
“I’m sure,” Tokio stated picking up the empty cups, “just be careful boys”
“It was a pleasure meeting you,” Kenshin called as she ran off to the kitchen wishing for a more proper parting.
“You as well mister Himura!” Tokio called.
“See you later Tokio,” Saitou said opening the door.
“Do bring your boyfriend back to see me!” Tokio shouted with a grin and wink.
“Huh?” Kenshin’s eyes widened as he tripped in surprise right into Saitou’s arms. This only made the moment worse for him.
“Are you alright?” Saitou asked with a small frown of concern.
“F-fine, Good catch,” Kenshin said looking down, madly trying to rid himself of a blush he knew was more than noticeable. Damn his modesty.
“Don’t let her get to you Himura, Tokio is odd like that,” Saitou said enjoying the fact that Kenshin had yet to pull away.
“Sorry she caught me off-guard, that’s all” Kenshin said looking up at him apologetically before pulling away to stand on his own.
He couldn’t remember ever blushing so much in his life not even when he was courting his Ex-wife. The very thought of his Ex-wife made his blush disappear and his eyes harden slightly. He couldn’t help but wonder if she was ok.
“It’s alright,” Saitou replied noting his change of expression with a mall frown.
“Well let’s go then,” Kenshin stated managing to get through the door without falling all over Saitou.
--
The Akebeko was one in a long line of Japanese food restaurants. As soon as they entered a wave of delicious smells surrounded them.
“Well I know what I’m having for dinner,” Kenshin stated his mouth watering over the delicious smells.
“You think it smells good try tasting it,” Saitou said.
“I’ll grab his food right quick and we can go,” Kenshin said spotting the food bar and heading towards it.
Saitou leaned back against the wall and let his gaze linger on his new partner. The man was gorgeous. Fair skinned with a deceivingly frail frame, exotic eyes, and that hair; that beautiful long fiery red hair. He just wanted to yank that band out and run his fingers through it. There were several things he wanted to do to the redhead, but he’d have to be careful. That small body didn’t fool him for one second. It seems his past life’s strength had bled over into this life. He could feel the strength in his aura, see it in the way he carried himself, and in those amazing amber eyes. If he overstepped his bounds he had no doubt his past rival could do some damage. That in its self was a major turn on.
“Saitou you look like you want to devour that man in a very deviant manor,” Tae stated with a devilish smile.
“Hello Tae how is business?” he asked.
“You know it’s fine, and don’t change the subject. Who is that delicious piece of man meat your undressing with your eyes?” Tae asked.
“My new partner, Kenshin Himura,” Saitou stated.
“Yum,” Tae stated imaging the two as a couple.
“Tae you naughty girl,” Saitou smirked.
“Oh hush it!” Tae laughed hitting him with her order pad.
“Ok Saitou ready when you are,” Kenshin said holding his brothers food in one hand while running fingers through his hair with the other.
“Oh he’s ready,” Tae snickered before letting out a yelp when Saitou pinched her arm.
“Huh?” Kenshin stated looking at her curiously.
“The names Tae, I own and manage this restaurant. Let me just say you are welcome here anytime,” she stated with a wink.
“Um…ok. I’m Kenshin Himura nice to meet you miss Tae,” Kenshin said offering his hand.
“Likewise. I’d love to stay and chat a while but I need to get back to work. Good luck Saitou,” Tae called over her shoulder.
“I eat here allot,” Saitou stated at the questioning look.
“I don’t blame you everything here looks and smells fantastic,” Kenshin said following Saitou out the door.
“Where to now?” Saitou asked once again getting behind the wheel.
“Oh to Mercy General,” Kenshin stated.
“Your brother is in the hospital?” Saitou asked glancing over at him, unable to help himself.
“Yea he’s a doctor,” Kenshin stated trying not to give in to the urge to eat his brothers food.
“Ah,” Saitou acknowledged.
Kenshin leaned forward and turned on the CD player revealing Had Enough by Breaking Benjamin.
‘Himura’s a rock fan,’ Saitou thought, ‘suites him’.
