From: Joy Konnichi wa!! I'm enjoying my last week of freedom. Next week, I have to get back to Uni ;( dang... anywayz... I was listening to this song, Wonderful Tonight, which was revived by the group Damage. I don't know who sang it originally, but I thought it will make a cool RK song fic.. some words are obviously not applicable, such as 'long brown hair' and 'car keys'. But I still used the actual lyrics even if the images do not correspond to it. Here we go!! To the couples of RK!!! ************************ Wonderful Tonight Sang by: Damage Disclaimer: The characters and lyrics do not belong to me ************************* Wonderful Tonight by: Joy [Tonight, tonight, tonight] Karou getting ready for the festival inside her room, along with Misao and Megumi. [Tonight, tonight, tonight] Kenshin, Aoshi and Sano, outside the dojo just standing around. Sano is whistling, Kenshin is looking around, while Aoshi looks deep in thought. [Tonight, tonight, tonight] The women are giggling, teasing eachother [It's late in the evening, she's wondering what clothes to wear] (Outside) "Oi! hurry up! the festival's going to end before the three of you decide to show up!" Sano yelled out, irritated. "Hurry up! jou-chan, fox lady and weasel girl!" A chorus of "SHUT UP, SANO!" was heared from the room. [she puts on her make-up and brushes her long brown hair] "Baka" Megumi muttered. Karou just finished fixing her hair, using a lavander coloured ribbon to tie it with. Misao, after a much heated arguement, allowed her hair to be done in an elegant bun, starts to fidget in her kimono. Megumi on the other hand, kept her hair down and was just waiting for Karou to finish. [and then she asks me, do I look alright?] When the three women walked out, Sano had to fight not to look shock at seeing the three women, especially Megumi looking aboslutely fantastic. "Kenshin?" "Karou-dono?" Kenshin replied, not knowing what to say. "Do I look alright?" she asked nervously. [and I say yes, you look wonderful tonight] "Hai, Karou-dono" he answered simply, but the look in his eyes and the smile that he gave, answered her question more eloquently than words can say. [we go to a party (we go out)] It didn't take long for the six of them to arrive, Misao standing right besides Aoshi, still uncomfortable with the Kimono she was practically forced to wear. She noticed that Kenshin and Karou has walked away, looking for Yahiko, Megumi and Sano, or rather Sano dragging Megumi somewhere. [and everyone turns and see, this beautiful lady who's walking around with me] Aoshi noted that several young men were looking at Misao. He wondered briefly if he could reveal his kodachi discreetly without Misao noticing, but just enough to send a warning to those who were looking at her. [and then she asks me, do I feel alright?] Misao on the other hand, had eyes only for her Aoshi-sama. She noticed the look on his face and was briefly worried that he wasn't enjoying himself. "Aoshi-sama?" she asked, calling his attention. "Daijobu desu ka" [and I say yes, I feel wonderful tonight] He looked down at her and saw the worry in her eyes. She was biting her lips, and seemed to be holding her breath for his reply. "I'm fine, Misao" he replied, giving her hand a gentle squeeze to reassure her, and prompted a blush from the surprised girl. [Tonight, tonight, tonight] Yahiko, helping Tae and Tsubame who opened a stall for the festival. He glances at the Tsubame once in a while, not knowing that when he wasn't looking, Tsubame was doing the same. Unknown, to the two them, Tae, including the customers have noticed them, and had smiles on their faces. [I feel wonderful because I see the love that's right in your eyes] Kenshin and Karou walking to where Tae's stall is, oblivious to the other people around them. Kenshin can't help but notice Karou as she would look at him, then look away, and when their eyes finally met, he smiled at her and held her hands with his. [and the wonder of it all is that you just don't realise how much I love you] Aoshi looked down at Misao with interest, who was still fidgeting and was starting to get annoyed at the looks she was getting from the other men. He knows that she loves him, she has never hidden that, and asked himself when he would have the courage to do the same. [it's time to go home now, yes it is] Sano and Megumi walked home alone, since Sano took the liberty of getting drunk. Megumi wondered how she allowed herself to be tricked into babysitting the rooster-headed idiot who can't seem to walk anymore. [and I've got an aching head] After a couple of drinks, Sano managed to convince Megumi to help him home. His head was pounding, but not as loudly as his heart as he noticed the irritation in Megumi's face, which he enjoyed very much, since he knows that he was the only one capable of giving her that reaction. [so I gave her the car keys, and she helps me into bed] "Next time, Sano" she told him as she laid him down his bed. "I am going to leave you out in the streets" she threatened him as she pulled the covers up to cover him, "And... if you ever trick me into being your chaperon again so that your fellow gambling friends get distracted well enough for you to win, I'll make sure you pay Tae-san every single cent you owe for eating in the Akabeko for free. Get it?" she asked, convinced that he was comfortable enough, started to walk away. [and then I tell her, as I turn down the lights] Sano listened to Megumi, but not really paying attention to her at all, even when she was angry, she was still very much a doctor, treating him like a patient. When she started to walk away, Sano knew he couldn't let her have the last words. "Oi! Fox lady..." [I say darling, you were wonderful tonight] He smirked as he noticed her stop, to turn around and look at him. *If looks could kil...* "Thanks for helping me out. You were a great decoy," Megumi stood in shock, at hearing Sano's words. She knew he was baiting her, and she can't leave with him having the last word. She smirked as well before turning around. "I know. After all, I am a fox. Right?" with that, she left Sano in bed, with his mouth hanging open. [you look wonderful] Yahiko walking along with Tsubame, the two still can't figure out what to say to eachother, much to Tae's amusement. [you're everything I need and more] Aoshi walking home with Misao asleep in his arms, since she tripped not long ago, after attempting to chase a drunk Sagara. [you look wonderful, so beautiful tonight] Kenshin and Karou look at eachother before going to their own rooms. ~end~ Well... the couples of RK. I'm not sure what to do with Yahiko and Tsubame though... lol. Comments and such are much appreciated. Hope you all enjoyed it!!
