Frustrations chapter 3
Hopeful
Warning: Just cuddling, nothing to serious
Disclaimer: I don’t own Kenshin
For the past two night Kenji had been without nightmares but Kaoru and Kenshin were
not taking any chances as soon as Kaoru’s cycle was over Kenji would be spending the
night at uncle Sano and aunt Megumi’s house. Kenshin and Saito had been working long
and hard to track down the asshole behind the interruption of Kenshin and Kaoru’s last
interlude so that the next time the only thing Kenshin would have to fight was his desire,
which to him seemed like a loosing battle. He knew Kaoru couldn’t help the little things
she did that drove him wild, he knew she couldn’t help the swing of her hips when she
walked, the bounce of her breast when she worked out, or the sweet smile that graced her
lips every time she welcomed him home with Kenji at the front gate. Yes, fighting his
desire was definitely a loosing battle when it can to this woman. There were times that he
didn’t care that Kaoru was on her cycle he just wanted her under him whimpering and
moaning his name with pleasure but then he would remember himself and try to calm
himself down. ‘Only a few more days.’ He kept telling himself to relax and ease the
feelings that were quacking within his manhood he was loosing control and for the first
time he heard the Battousai within him beg that he didn’t care if it was messy he just
wanted his Kaoru. ‘Just a few more days, Just a few more days’ He repeated mentally to
his other more volatile half.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Kaoru was ready for her cycle to be over, he mind and body were reaching their limits. “I
am going to find him and make him take me the second I relies my cycle is over.” She
told herself out loud as she went over the second most difficult kata in the Kamiya
Kasshin Ryu, her frustration was at it peek especially since she discovered why Kenji was
no longer having night terrors. ‘It was so simple why didn’t we think of it before.’
FLASHBACK
Kenshin and Kaoru came home after her ‘supposed’ kidnapping their son came running to
them as soon as the had entered the main gate. He jumped into Kaoru’s arms crying
hysterically at the same time reaching over to hold Kenshin as well. The child’s entire body
was quacking with the power of his sobs, for a while all Kaoru and Kenshin could do was
hold him in a tight embrace of reassurance.
“Kenji-san, what is wrong?” Kaoru finally asked in a soothing voice to calm the trembling child.
“Kaa-chan, was taken by bad men.” He finally stated before he wailed and berried himself
in Kaoru’s shoulder. When he lifted his head again he had a pained look on his face
“They hurt Yahiko-Chan, and they took Kaa-chan away… Kenji not know what to do.”
He wailed again and this time the tears and sobs did not stop for a long time. It was then
that Kaoru decided that the truth of the situation wasn’t what needed to be heard but the
truth of a certain fact that Kaoru and Kenshin had neglectfully have not told their son.
“Kenji, sweet heart look at Kaa-chan, I need your full attention.” She said in a soothing
yet demanding voice. The child slowly opened his tear filled eyes to his mother’s face.
She smiled a comforting smile at her trembling child that she loved so much. “Kenji, your
Too Chan would never ever let anyone or anything hurt me or you. And if someone ever got close he would make them live to regret it.”
“Kaa-chan is right Kenji, that she is. I would not let anyone or anything harm you or Kaa-
Chan. I love you to much to let something happen to either of you, that I do.” Kenshin said
in a soothing yet serious voice. “And Kaa-chan is also right that if something or someone
even came close to hurting you I would make them pay for it, that I would.” Kenshin,
who’s arms were cradling Kaoru and Kenji, leaned his head down and kissed the top of
his sons head and whispered gently “ Nothing is strong enough to take Kaa-chan or you
away from me, that there is not.” Kenshin’s eyes glowed gold with every word he had
said, his serious expression on his normally gentle face was stirring. This was the first
time Kenshin had ever let Kenji see his dark more possessive and more protective side of
himself. This was the first time Kenji had ever seen the Battousai within his father, but
for some reason instead of Kenji being scared or feeling threatened he stopped sobbing
and looked into his father’s eye and … smiled. It was a reaction that Kaoru wasn’t use
see when one is first introduced to Kenshin’s other half but it was the reaction Kenji gave
none the less.
“Thank you Tou-chan, I know that now and I will never be afraid again.” Kenji’s smile
widened as he laid his head on Kaoru’s neck still starring into his father’s face.
END FLASHBACK
Kaoru thought back to that night and how it was the first night in a long time that she did
not wake to the sound of Kenji’s screams. She did wake that night though it was as if her
heart was telling her that something was off her mind immediately jump to Kenji,
thinking that any moment she would hear her child scream from his nightmares but he
didn’t. Kaoru had even gotten up to cheek on him but when she opened the sliding door
to his bedroom she saw her sleeping child, the room seemed to echo with his quite snores,
his hands pillowed his angelic face as he lay in peaceful slumber. Kenshin had come up
behind her and they both looked at their adorable child with love as he rapped his arms
around her waste and placed his chin on her shoulder. Kaoru had leaned back into her
husband embrace a small smile growing on her lips as she thought what exactly this
meant. She and Kenshin would finally be able to sleep and make love without
interruptions hopefully. “Hopefully.” She said quietly as she stopped her kata and looked
to the slowly opening door as a very sleepy eyed Kenji opened the door still holding the
blanket Kaoru had rapped him in when she had put him down for a nap. She smiled at
him as he rubbed his eyes with the back of his hand. “Hopefully.” She said again even
quieter.
