Nice to Meet Ya

Chapter 2: New Love and a Plan

The day decided to become much uglier, but to me it became a better day especially from a long day of work. I could tell that the thunder storm was getting worse by the intensity of the heavy winds as the rain without its softness and moisture became hard and heavy like hail. My foot had try to become burried under the thick, clay like mud as I walked up to the grand dojo. I wasn't able to go inside since had saw something- or maybe someone laying against the wet and dirty mud as the storm grew. . .

Figures.
Kaoru is stupid to try to do something as foolish like this. Why would she think that I'll let her leave me? She doesn't have a say on her future. It's her father fault. The bastard shouldn't had tried to punish me for using the Kamiya Kasshin style to kill. Swordsmanship is meant to kill an enemy or anyone in sight. It's a game in which there is a person who dies and the other continues to get rid of the weak and inferior. Maybe she'll probably would try to find a way, if she was clever enough, or knew if someone actually cared about her. It's nothing new to me, she's too scared to attempt to kill herself or try to leave. I'm just hoping she doesn't actually leave if she had the chance to.

'She'll never leave me,' I told myself, as I picked up the cold and possibly unconscious body of Kaoru.

"Damn, and she didn't even think to leave any dinner for me," I sighed while tending to clean Kaoru as she began to cough from being out in the cold too long without proper clothes. 'You really should consider yourself lucky for not getting poisoned by her food,' the inner voices in my head began to rant once again.

"Kaoru...? Kaoru... Kaoru...wake up!," I shook the delicate girl, until two shocking electric blue fearful eyes opened.

"Get up and put on a kimono that suits you. I'm treating you to the Akabeko tonight," I said actually sounding hyper, which turned to laugher afterwards.

"Why even bother?", Kaoru said when her face tilted away from mine, which made her hair block her eyes from mine.

"Because, I think you should see how things changed after 10 years. Besides isn't the main event important since I'm trying to be a decent person," I brushed her bangs away from her face with my calloused hands, while she was still laying on my lap until she went to change in her room.

"Depends if there's no 'strings attached, " She said as she walked back in a tight fitting cherry blossom printed maroon kimono.

"You have to twist everything I say. . . don't you," We smiled at each other's witty comments before we went to the carriage that was at the front of the dojo.

--
'I wonder why he's acting nice to me all of a sudden.' I asked myself as Gohei and I climbed into the elegant carriage, that must have cost a lot of money from how it was excellently well maintained. 'Well, if he doesn't say something that doesn't have any sexual innuendoes , be afraid . . . be very afraid,' I imagined a scary voice saying that thought from my mind and start to laugh like if they were dead or constipated.

'Why the hell do I stay with Gohei? Is it because, he threatens to get the police on me or because I just can't get up and leave him...'

"Or is it that I'm in love with him, although he hits me, molests me and tells me I have to 'pretend' I'm a courtesan with his 'friends

'Yeah, I pick that one, add that to my memory bank,' I mentally said as the carriage pulled up to the Akabeko.

---

At that same moment, two silhouettes of two tall men who were inside the Akabeko in the bar section waiting for their drinks but in the meanwhile their eyes passed on a couple of waitresses and other girls who happened to catch their eyes... One man wore something that resemble as a white suit for training, which had stand out because it had the kanji characters that translated to 'evil'. He also had messy brown spiky hair which had a red bandanna. The other man wore a worn-out police officer uniform, possibly from numerous encounters with criminals who wanted to live the life of crime.

"So rooster head, what are you doing in a bar where people who have jobs go to get wasted not ruffians who start stupid, pointless fights?"

"So now you're a person, Saitou? I thought you were only a slimy, good-for-nothing son of a bitch."

"Why, thank you... At least I have money to support my smoking and drinking habits"

"You say that like it's a good thing?"

"At least it makes me look better than you."

Remind me to give you a painful, long death after this."

"You couldn't even hurt a fly, not even if God gave you the power to."

"Still trying to fuck with me,eh!
What the hell did you say!"

"Nothing, you could ever comprehend to save your pitiful life."

"Whatever. Hey, our drinks are here!"

'God, thank you for having Sagara say something that wouldn't have us both pissed off on the weekend, right now,' Saitou contemplated in his mind.

"You know if you can't laid rooster head, you could still get some damn good sake."

"I know you're saying that to yourself, right?"

"Wrong again, dumbass. Unlike you, I'm not stupid to talk to myself."

"You're such a piece of shit."

"Correction! I'm a piece of shit who happens to be engaged."

"You know lying will not get you anywhere, especially if you want to get laid by a decent looking prostitute."

"Why would I waste my time lying to a prick like you?"

"I give my condolences to her and to the family. So if you're engaged then why- ..."

"Why am I in a bar? Because I'm breaking off the engagement. She's not my type. She's arrogrant like you."

"You're even lucky if a girl looks at you twice or even has the guts to come in contact 5 feet near you, Saitou."

"It's too bad that you're so slow to realize anything around you," Saitou said as three courtesans were holding him by his arms, giggling at Sanosuke.

"You could go now," Saitou said to the girls in a displeasing way until a raven haired girl with a maroon kimono gracefully walked in The Akabeko in the arms of a digusting looking brute, who looked as if he were a murderer or hoodlum. Her eyes were something else, and the way she walked made her a angel from the sky. Sanosuke was wondering why Saito didn't continue to brag until he was looking at the same direction where the young and stunning woman was. He then anticipated to break the akward silence between them...

"So that's the girl who you now infatuated with?"

"Hmm? I guess so. I'm just looking at how she's walking in that kimono of hers..."

"Can't blame you. She's lovely, but she's too plain or boring ... Mediocre is the word just right for her."

"Whatever, I just know that the little vixen is capturing me captive with her looks. . ."

-

Sanosuke didn't notice that Saitou had a pissed off expression while he was saying something about leaving. Actually he didn't pay any attention to anything else, and he sure as hell didn't care about the hideous oaf that she was with. She made him feel different , not like other women did. The definition of women to Sano was that a different species of the human race. They love you one minute and then down your throat the next. If you have a friend who was a girl they started the three C's : Competitive, Catty, and Clingy. And if a woman wasn't into the C's, she just wanted to 'get together for the night' and leave.

Kaoru noticed that the tall guy who wore a white outfit and sported a red bandanna was in a trance...

Just staring at her...

---

'Well ... is it me or is it suddenly starting to get warm in here,' Kaoru thought as she walked up to the guy who caught her eye.

----

Saitou had breathe in the cigarette smoke as he contently looked at the girl who Sanosuke was staring at. Until a pair of women's arms appeared on his shoulders.

"Saitou, darling.. You're not with Sanosuke right now which is strange..., " The woman pointed at Sano direction.

"Hey, Kamatari. Why are you in a place like this?"

"Saitou, baby. You remember I have to hang around here. It's the hotspot for those arrogant Kabuki directors? Besides what's wrong with this place?"

"You haven't been in here at 12 A.M. , have you?"

"If I can't get a acting job by leaving with one of the Kabuki directors around 10, then I'm gone."

"Thanks for the story of you whoring yourself... Where's Chou?"

"He's in Osaka. Besides I wanted someone else to keep me company- if you know what I mean.

Saitou didn't respond to Kamatari request, because he continued to look at Sano's infatuation with THIS girl.

"Oh. I see she's the key of your problem."

"What the hell does that broad have that I don't! I'm pretty damn good looking guy and I could kill just about anyone by just pulling my sword out."

"I wouldn't compete with her, Saitou-san. She has the ABC's - a great looking ass, breasts , and cl-"

"I GET THE POINT, ALREADY!"

"God Saitou, you're really in love with Sanosuke."

"Of course, I am."

"Then get rid of her, before you can't do anything about it. Girls like her try to take our guys away like that." Kamatari said as she snapped her fingers quickly to prove her point.

"I have to go and talk to the theater people now. So I'll see you later at my apartment, okay Saitou?"

"I might have a infatuation with Sanosuke, but I'll never miss a offer like this..."

"You're so kinky, but that's such a good thing to me."

-----

The girl on which his eyes fell on stole his heart. She gave him the sweetest smile that he thought it wasn't possible to do, since he met a lot of brash women during the course of 10 years... 10 long years since he last saw his childhood friend, and started to recite a poem ...

The darkness at night...

seeps into my room...

The nightlife begins...

And also the dreams I have...

The chances that they would come to life are slim...

But I rather have them, then not have dreams at all...


He asked her if she wanted to dance, she accepted...

-

One dream, late last night...

Was about the darkness and the light...

They showed their feelings for each other...

Even though it was a forbidden passion...

However... It wasn't their choice that they fought often...

It was their destiny.

He was the incredible, beautiful bright light,

which balanced out the darkness and light in the world...

--

...And she, the beautiful vixen, who became a fallen angel.

Is the darkness, who made it possible to have a forbidden love.

They were different, but alike in many ways.
They both gazed into the starry, midnight blue sky at night...


They continued to dance but drew themselves closer to each other..-

To wish a wish that seemed that wasn't real...

She wished for love with the 'light',since he was the only one who captivated her...
She only wanted to hear him say 'Te Amo' in a seductive mantra...

She could never reach him, if she wanted to...

He was the the key to her heart, and until she recieves that key...
She will silently tell him "Say Te Amo at Midnight!"


The two got closer till which their lips came in contact, until Saitou came who had a wicked smile on his face...

--

"We are needed where Gohei is. He wants us to talk about a plan and possibly some type of reward for us..."
