rurokenTitle: Moonlit
Fandom: Rurouni Kenshin
Genre: General
Pairing/Characters: Aoshi/Kaoru
Warning: Written for the 100 Fairytales comm on LJ, prompt: Curing a sick lion.
Author's Note: I looked up what 'curing a sick lion' is and it's a lion tricking people he's sick so they go to his den/cave and he eats them when they get close. Just because he's hungry.
Do you think Aoshi's hungry?
Summary: Kaoru sees behind Aoshi's motives, kinda. At least she thinks she does.
Disclaimer: I do not own the characters Nobuhiro Watsuki has created, just the plot and that's it.
"Jou-chan! What's wrong with your food?" Sano grimaced as he chewed Kaoru's cooking. "No love in the cooking this morning?"
"Yea, busu, your cooking today is more terrible than yesterday!" Yahiko took the food out of his mouth. "I think I'd rather starve today."
Kaoru ignored his comment. "Where's Kenshin?"
"Oh, he's with Aoshi!" Yahiko's face brightened at the mention of Kenshin and the connection to the okashira. "I saw them this morning, they left-"
"They left?!" Kaoru got up from the table.
"Jou-chan, it's okay. Don't worry about it. I know how you feel, Kenshin can take of himself." Sano tried to make Kaoru relax. "Kenshin said they'll be back when you wake up."
Kaoru gave him a hard look. "Well?"
"Well what?" Sano looked confused. "Do I need to say more?"
"Well, I'm awake, where is he?" Kaoru tapped his foot. "I just don't understand, why does he need K-"
"Tadaima!" Kenshin's voice carried to the kitchen. "Kaoru-dono, are you-"
"Kenshin!" Kaoru made a dash for his voice. "I made- Oh." Kaoru's eyes fell on the basket Aoshi was carrying.
"If you don't mind, Aoshi-dono bought some food from the Akabeko. I said that he didn't need to, your cooking is fine enough, but he insisted." Kenshin explained.
"Yea! Real food!" Yahiko hollered from the door way.
"Shut up, ya runt! Well, it's best not to throw away food, so Aoshi, if you please." Sano gestured for the okashira to come into the kitchen.
When Aoshi left for the kitchen, Kenshin took Kaoru aside. "Kaoru-dono, thank you for letting in the Okashira so suddenly. He really appreciates your hospitality."
Kaoru was speechless, the okashira what? "Uh, okay Kenshin. H-He's okay to stay as long as he likes."
Kaoru uttered those words through gritted teeth. Kenshin gave a sweet smile to her and left to join the others in a second breakfast.

Later, Kaoru found the okashira meditating near the backyard. She watched him from behind for a couple of minutes, before going in front of him to face him.
"I don't know what you think you doing," Kaoru looked down at him, arms akimbo, "but don't think you have me fooled. You tried to kill Kenshin once before and I have no doubt you'll do it again. Don't think I'm watching you." Kaoru was tempted to entice him to a fight.
Kaoru made sure her point was made as she swiftly walked back into the house and slammed the shoji door.
Author's Note: I was really tempted to say: "...as she swiftly walked back into the house and slammed the shoji door on his ass." Yea, cause Kaoru's likes a good ass-kicking.
