This story was not written for sale or profit. This story took a different turn from what I had originally planned but I like the way it turned out. I wanted to portray Kaoru as being a bit more aggressive in their relationship and willing to do something about instead of just waiting. Thanks for reading and enjoy. The plan 3 The waiting began. ?/How long do I wait? If I wait to long he will be asleep.? / / / Then she realized that doubt was trying to cloud her mind. She remembered what Megumi had told her ?to rely on her body and it would let her know what to do?. Her body could not wait any longer, she had to do it tonight. Just a little longer and it would be dark. Perfect... She laid down to wait... watching the ceiling, her mind was slowly going over what she had planned to do. Finely it was time, rolling over to stand up, who should be sitting on the corner of her futon, non other than the mouse. AAAHHHHHHEEEEEEE!!! Two seconds flat, Kenshin was in her room. The third second she was trying to climb to the highest point that being Kenshin. Some how she had managed to progress upward, with her head over his left shoulder and her feet striving to reach the ceiling. Her hands grasping at anything that she could hold on to. Dazed he grabs at anything that he can find to hold her, which just happen to be the inside of her right thigh. With the added moving weight he almost lost his balance. With her chest pressed to his face he could see nothing and was unable to talk. ?Kkkkarrrroooo? came his muffled cry ?please stop moving.? Then he realized where he was holding her. She suddenly stopped and relaxed into his arms whimpering softly, small shivers still going through her body. He quickly readjusted her to hold both legs and still his hand was touching bare flesh. She didn?t seem to mind so he let it pass. ?What?s wrong, are you all right Kaoru-dono?? he gently asks the worry clearly evident in his voice. ?The mouse was here? she said blushing trying to hide her face in his neck. Her hands were clasped around his neck almost melting her arms from the feel of his touch. Then she felt his warm skin on her leg and forgot about the mouse as the heat was running through her thigh. ?Aa? he said smiling to himself. How he loved this woman, he thought holding her just a little tighter, I could keep her close like this forever. His mouth opened to say something but before he could speak she raised her eyes to meet his taking his breath away. The moment was perfect her mind was saying, perfect for the perfect kiss. But fate only stays so long and her time was up. Her stomach suddenly growled. ?I?I guess I?m hungry? she said shyly blushing. ?I?ll fix you something to eat.? he said smiling. With her safely tucked in his arms he walked out of her room. As he was walking to the kitchen she couldn?t help but feel safe with the warmth of his body next to hers. He set her down in the kitchen then went to the task of preparing some food for her. There was some rice balls and miso soup from dinner. Kaoru sat watching his back as he prepared her food, he then placed the tray of food in front of her. ?I?ll go make sure that the mouse is gone,? he said giving him a reason to leave. Once out of the kitchen, he could breath normal again. The soft glow of the light in the kitchen had intensified her beauty making her more alluring. As he is walking back to her room, his thoughts were traveling like this/ I want her so bad, she hasn?t been herself today, she has tied my heart to her, and can I ask her to marry me/. She sat there looking at her food, eating was the last thing on her mind but the body has other parts that also have to be appeased , she thought. So she started to eat and the rest of her thoughts went something like this /does he want me, what am I going to do now, his rurouni days are over, and will he ask me to marry him/. When Kenshin finished checking her room, he returned to the kitchen and sat across from her. As he watched her take each bite of food he was mesmerized by her movements. Kaoru noticed the way Kenshin was watching her. Delicately she picked up the last rice ball with her left hand and with her thumb and forefinger of her right hand gently pinched a piece of the rice ball. Moving her fingers slowly toward her mouth, she inserts her fingers, letting her tongue scoop the rice into her mouth. Then lifted her eyes to look innocently at Kenshin. His eyes were glued to her mouth. Taking another pinch, she again puts her fingers into her mouth, this time wrapping her lips around her fingers letting them slowly slide out of her mouth with a subtle sucking motion. She watched as Kenshin forced himself to swallow and take in a deep breath, noticing the glint of gold in his eyes. ?Kenshin are you all right? she coyly asks trying desperately to keep her look innocent and hide the smile that wanted to decorate her face. ?Hai? was his response. ?Would you like a bite?? she asked. ?Hai? this time a little more eager. Taking another pinch of the rice ball, she leaned forward and held it out to Kenshin. He leaned forward and took her hand with both of his hands and placed her fingers into his mouth. Gently he licked the rice from her fingers then he used his teeth to softly bite them. Opening her hand, he lightly nibbles her palm then he kissed everywhere his teeth had been. His eyes never leaving her face. It was her turn to stare wide-eyed and force a swallow as his eyes bore into hers tearing away the innocent look she had constructed. ?Greedy? she whispers. ?Hai? he quietly answers. ?The rice balls are very tasty,? she said sucking another breath. ?So are you? Kenshin softly replies before he realizes what he had said. Kaoru blushes. After the kitchen is cleaned and everything is put back in its normal place. They walk together to Kaoru?s bedroom. Each lost in their own thoughts but both thinking the same thing. ?Oyasumi nasai Kaoru-dono? he managed to say through a dry mouth. ?Oyasumi nasai Kenshin? comes back her soft reply ?Arigato for saving me from the mouse again.? He softly whispers ?Hai? as she slowly goes into her room shutting the door. I have to do it tonight, just give him time to lay down the thought going through her head. At last the time was right. Slowly she walked to Kenshin?s bedroom door. A present for him in her hands. ?Kenshin? she said softly. Kenshin sat up in bed. ?Kaoru-dono?? he responded. ?Can I come in?? she asked. ?Hai, are you all right Kaoru-dono?? he inquired. She opened the door and said ?I couldn?t sleep, can I give you something that I made for you?? She entered the room and shut the door. As she walked closer, he noticed that her hands were behind her back. With many doubts he responded ?Hai?. ?Close your eyes and put out your hands?? she sweetly asked. Not able to deny her anything, he did as she bid. That doomed feeling from this morning returning. He closed his eyes and extended his hands palms up. Instead of putting something in his hands, she loosely tied them together with the braided rope that she made just for this occasion. Just as quick, she pushed him back down on his futon and sat on his stomach. She pushed his hands above his head sliding her hands down his arms sending tiny jolts of fire through both sets of arms. The sudden movement surprised and shocked Kenshin. He could have easily overpowered her but was curious as to what she would do next. So he just lay there letting her do what she wanted. Then the fire that was started earlier became a raging inferno when he realized that his stomach was touching moist bare skin and a patch of soft hair where she was sitting. After everything that had happened today feeling her sitting on his stomach sent hot flames of euphoria through his entire body. Now even though he wanted to, he was powerless to resist. Somehow she had managed to open his yukata and slip out of hers. ?/What a crafty woman she is becoming./? the thought swiftly passed through his mind. Putting more pressure on his arms, Kaoru slowly slid back and forth across his stomach, just like Megumi had instructed her to do. Her body was heating up and there was a fire inside of her so intense that she thought her body would explode. Kenshin lay there trembling, with his head tilted back and the muscles of his face taut. She could hear him softly moaning. He set his mind to the task of remaining passive, but her touch was causing a powerful whirlwind of desire stirring his raging fire. Like light raindrops her wet kisses littered his neck causing his moans to turn into deep growls. Then her hot breath retraced the path her kisses had laid numbing his mind, giving his body complete control. As she teased his chest with her nipples his body wanted to give her what she was asking for. Kaoru closed her eyes and took that last leap off the cliff, hoping that Kenshin would be there to catch her. Then ever so slowly she backed against his member and reaching down guided it into her opening. Taking a deep breath she completed the entry. The pain mixed with elation emanated throughout her body causing her to collapse on top of him. Kenshin suddenly went rigid. His mind, jolted by her action, gained enough control to accept what had just happened. The rope came untied as he reached for Kaoru. Holding her still body he whispered ?Kaoru?? And was shocked at her timid response ?Is it over?? ?Iie? he chuckled sending waves of sensations thru both bodies. Gently holding her, Kenshin took some deep breaths trying to calm his animal instincts. He wanted her to experience the joy that two people can share, but he was losing the battle, for he was fighting his body?s cry for release. As long as they didn?t move he was gaining some control then he realized that Kaoru?s hand had somehow maneuvered down between them and was pressed against her lower abdomen making her moan with pleasure. Kenshin drew in a sharp breath as her hand slowly slid down to explore the link between them making him grit his teeth at her tender touch. When her fingers kept exploring and found her womanhood he was not sure how much longer he could hold on. Kaoru felt the fire inside her passionately burn with the added fuel after he entered her. Her body demanded more so she started exploring with her hand. The palm of her hand found her abdomen and with pressure was sending waves of pleasure to every corner of her being. While the fingertips tickled her pleasure center unmercifully. Then he felt her womanly juices seeping down into the crevices of his body making him quiver with unending blissfulness. The things that she was doing to him were to much. ?Kaaaaoruuuu? he wheezed between clenched teeth ?I ....nee...?. ?Aaaa? was all she could exhale. They rolled as one putting him on top. She was teetering on the edge waiting for him, so he created a rhythm that satisfied both of them, following where she led. Two voices crying out as one. They lay together for what seemed like eternity wrapped in each other?s arms. Squeezing every drop of passion that they could get from their experience. Neither one able or willing to move or say anything that would break their encounter. Kenshin was the first to move. He half rolled over pulling her into his arms not wanting to let go of her just yet. He pulled the covers over them when her body gave a slight shiver. ?Kenshin, are you angry with me?? she softly whispered, her breath light against his chest making him tremble. ?Iie?. why... would I... be angry...?? was his broken reply. ?The rope....? she sighed. ?Why did...you....do that?? he hesitantly asked, not sure if he wanted to know. She blushed as she quietly explained ?I talked with Megumi and she said .....? her voice dropped off. ?Aa? was Kenshin?s response. He reached down and gently coaxed her chin up so that he could look into her eyes. Lightly stroking her cheek he gazed into her eyes and softly he asked "Aishiteru, Kaoru, will you marry me?? Kaoru unable to believe what he had just asked her, stares at him in silence for a moment and then softly whispers ?Aa, Aishiteru Kenshin.? Hearing her soft reply he leans down and gently touches his lips to hers. Kaoru closes her eyes and not really knowing how to respond she puckers her lips and tries to return the kiss, with a small smile Kenshin runs his tongue across her lips. When Kaoru responds by tentatively touching her tongue to his, Kenshin feels like he is going to explode right there in her arms. Knowing it is too soon to take her again, he controls his impulse and guides Kaoru's tongue into his mouth in a mating dance of exquisite torment to his body. For the moment he would be content to hold her and take what ever she was willing to give him. Kaoru liking the sensations Kenshin is sending throughout her body and the feel of his skin touching every part of her possible, snuggles into his warm embrace. Feeling as if all her dreams have just come true, Kaoru smiles softly to herself. What a wonderful night it had been. Not exactly what she had planned but better. ------------------------------------------------------------------------
