TOO MUCH SAKE by flori-dono Disclaimer: This is a Rurouni Kenshin-inspired fan fiction. The author is not making any money out of this. The characters of Rurouni Kenshin belong to Watsuki Nobuhiro, Shounen Jump, and Sony and others that should be mentioned but were not. Author's Notes: Heck, I would like to dedicate this story to my friend Moks (not her real name of course) who inspired me to write this. She called me up one night just to ask for some advice. Gads, this story is her story so I guess its kinda OOC for the RK folks. 12/25/99 1:15 AM "Alright!" Yahiko screamed in pain. "It's Tsubame I like, okay?" Kaoru let go of Yahiko's hands as the whole Kenshingumi shouted catcalls. The poor boy rubbed his hands. He could not look at Tsubame who was at that time blushing furiously. "Heh, had no choice boy?" Sano said as he slapped Yahiko at the back. "She was pinching me to make me answer!" Yahiko complained. "Whatever," Sano said then laughed. "Just watch out for your turn Rooster-head!" Yahiko muttered. Delightfully, he took hold of the bottle, turned it in a circle and watched it spun around. It was already almost midnight. It was Kaoru's birthday and Kenshin decided to hold a surprise party for her (the celebrant was so delighted that she kissed Kenshin passionately in front of everybody). Almost everybody was there. The doctor and the kids, Megumi, Sano who brought Katsu along, Tae and Tsubame, and of course Yahiko. There were so much sake and food (courtesy of Akabeko Catering Services ) that the party was a success. When the Old Doctor passed out and the kids were asleep, and the food was almost gone, they decided to play Spin the Bottle. "Bingo!" Yahiko said as the mouth of the bottle pointed towards Megumi's direction. The lady doctor wasn't even aware. She had been drinking too much sake and most of it had already gone to her head. "Uh, Yahiko I don't think Megumi's up to it." Kenshin said, noticing how drunk Megumi already was. Kaoru peered at the other woman and saw the glaze in her eyes. "Yup, a few more cups and she'll be out!" "Don't tell me Jouchan has already outdone you in drinking, Kitsune!" Sano said patronizingly. Megumi broke out of her trance and slid a very poisonous look at the Sanosuke. "You shouldn't have said that," Katsu whispered. "You're done for, you know!" Even Yahiko gulped as he saw how Megumi's slanted eyes already resembled those of Saitoh in Shinsen-mode. "Don't dare me, Rooster!" Megumi drawled then turned towards the rest of the group. "And I'm not yet ready to pass out ::insert THE MEGUMI LAUGH::!" Tae peered worriedly at her. "Are you sure, Megumi? You don't seem..." "Oh yesh, I'm soooo shure!" she said and drank a cup more of sake, straight. ::Everybody sweatdropped:: "Er, right!" said Kaoru (it was her birthday okay? She wouldn't want an enraged kitsune ruin her party). "So, turth or dare?" "Dare," Megumi answered. "O-kay... so, any ideas guys?" Kaoru asked. Yahiko was still looking for his face and wanted revenge. Any victim was fine and besides he wanted to make Sano uncomfortable even for a teeny-weeny bit of a second. He glanced at Megumi. He grimaced in disgust. What a drunk! Then he glanced at Sano who was looking at Megumi. Yes, this was a good plan. "I've got an idea!" Yahiko announced. All eyes were upon him. "Spit it out boy!" Sano shouted. "Hey Megumi, sure you're up to it?" Yahiko asked (just for added effect). "Uh-huh..." she answered, her cheeks more flushed than before. "Okay," Yahiko said with a smile. "Why don't you dance for us right here in the middle of the room?" :Silence: Slowly, Megumi smiled, a very uncanny smile. "Okay!" she said happily. :More silence: Sano gulped. "That is a bad idea," he thought then as he pictured an image of Megumi's hips swaying, he changed his mind. "Actually, it's a good idea!" Everybody held their breath as the IT slowly stood up (not without staggering a little) and made her way in the middle of the room. "She's gonna do it!" Kaoru said as she huddled near a spiral-eyed Kenshin who was muttering under his breath an inaudible "orororororo..." Tsubame was blushing more furiously and Tae was fiddling with a pair of chopsticks (honestly, they were the ones who were embarrassed for Megumi who wasn't embarrassed at all). Even the 'brave' Yahiko cowered a little. "Meg...Megumi... I was just joking!" Yahiko said. But she wasn't listening. Slowly she started to dance (actually it's more of waist grinding and hip swaying) to an imaginary music, her movements sensual and seductive. Kaoru blushed and covered Kenshin's eyes (she was NOT going to let him watch!). Yahiko nose bled and Katsu's tongue was hanging out of his head. And Sano... Sano was in a trance. Words started to form in his mind, "STRIP! STRIP! STRIP! STRIP..." "Sano," Megumi purred as she danced her way towards the handsome (sigh) gangster. She leaned close to him and said in a loud whisper, "What did you say? Did you say you want me to strip?" "Kuso," Sano thought. "Did I say that aloud?" "Er, Fox-lady I...I...I," he stammered. "I was just kidding around!" Megumi pouted. Sano just stared at those luscious (AUTHOR: am I really writing this?)red lips of hers. "But, I'm not!" Sano gulped for the second time. He couldn't seem to move. His body was held into place by an unknown force. He just watched Megumi move away, her hands on the ties of her doctor's garb. "HEEEEY!" Kaoru screamed. "We got kids around!" "Megumi, please stop!" Tae pleaded while Tsubame fainted. The two other boys, or men, were banging their heads against the floor. "We are not seeing this... we are not!" They kept on chanting. Kaoru turned to Kenshin who was still spinning circles in his eyes. "Don't just sit there, baka! Do something!" "Ororororororo?!" "Oy Kami-sama, she's stripping!" somebody shouted (at that point, nobody cared who it was anymore... they were all caught up in a whirlwind of confusion). And they saw Megumi threw her 'apron' or 'bib' or 'over-kimono' or whatever you call that; up in the air, making it land on Yahiko's head, blocking his view. "This is enough!" Sano said grimly to himself. He stood up and pulled Megumi to him as she was about to undo her kimono. "Stop it Megumi!" Sano said. Megumi slid her arms around Sano's neck and and pulled his head down, drawing his face near hers (the rest of them waited in breathless anticipation). "So I only have to dance to get your attention huh, Sagara Sanosuke?" "What do you mean?" he asked. Having Megumi near is playing havok to his senses. "Well, I've always loved you, you know..." she said matter-of-factly in a low drawl. ::Collective gasp from the people in the room:: "Oooh, she said it!" Kaoru cried. "Finally!" Tae followed. "Yuck, too romantic for me!" Yahiko said, having finally able to peek from under Megumi's uh, apron (?). "Go ma man!" Katsu hollered. "Woohoo!" "Orororo?" Sano couldn't say anything. "Fox-lady loves me?" he thought. "Wow, this is new..." "But," Megumi said. ::Silence. All eyes and ears on Megumi:: (AUTHOR: ALL THINGS INSIDE * * ARE SANO'S THOUGHTS) "You always say hurtful things to me, baby." *Ba-baby?* "So I tend to hurt you too," she said. "Well, I didn't mean to. It's just that you provoke me." *Provoke her? Then what does SHE do to me?* "But, that's all in the past, ne?" *Oh sure, I'm looking forward to the future!* "Kiss me, Sano. I love you!" she cried out, pressing her body to Sano's, raising her head and offering her lips for a kiss. *This is not happening to me! Oh what the heck!* Sano crushed his mouth to hers in a sizzling, passionate kiss. ::In the background, Yahiko and Katsu were standing, and moving their hips and arms around, cheering Sano and on, "GO SANO! GO SANO! GO SANO!":: Kaoru looked at the couple and was somehow envious. She looked at the dazed rurouni beside her. "I wish that baka, would do something as nice as that. Hmp!" Tae had hearts on her eyes. "Just like in the romance novels!" she thought and sighed. The kiss went on and on, the couple in the middle of the room not caring about the rest of the people around them. It still went on... And on... And on... Katsu and Yahiko had stopped chanting way long ago. They just slumped down to the floor, trying to catch their breaths, their voice too hoarse to utter another word. Tae had fallen asleep on the spot. And Kaoru and Kenshin, oh they've gone SOMEWHERE since the novelty of having the two kiss each other wore off. They decided to uh, do other productive things rather than watch. At long last, the two broke their kiss of. Both of them, breathless. "So Sano, how was that?" Megumi asked. "Uhh, geez, wow!" was all he could say. "Wanna take the next step?" she asked with a VERY sly smile. "Hey, do you still know what you're doing?" Sano asked worriedly. Much as he would have liked it, he wouldn't go take advantage of a drunk woman. "Uh-huh..." she said then giggled. Sano shook his head. "Nope, you're going home Fox..." Out of nowhere, Megumi produced her chain and collar (the one she used for Kenshin before) and caught Sano by surprise. "You're mine, Rooster-head!" she cried triumphantly and dragged a cursing and protesting (although he could've just powdered the collar and chain with his Futae no Kiwami, let's just say he wasn't protesting as hard as he should) inside a room. LATER ON... It was a sunny morning and the birds were chirping outside. All of the party people from last night (or very early that morning)were still asleep in the dojo, too exhausted by the happenings. Kenshin and Kaoru were hugging each other (I swear, nothing that BIG happened between the two!)in their sleep. Katsu was snoring loudly and Yahiko was collecting a puddle of drool on his side of the floor. The Doctor, Tae, Tsubame and the kids were more or less in the same situation. In other words, it was a quiet day and all would've woken up at around noon when suddenly... "AGGH! WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE YOU HENTAI!!!!!!!" "BUT...." "GET OUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" EVEN LATER ON... Sano walked home alone with a black eye and two lumps on his head, muttering. "Too much sake..." 12/25/99 1:50 AM YEAH, YEAH I KNOW I ENDED IT BADLY...
