It's Your Love

Spoilers: Some really small ones for Kyoto.
Music starts.
Night.
Kenshin walks around the Kamiya Dojo restless. He checks the grounds
and then the inside of the house.
Yea, yea
Dancin' in the dawn, middle of the night
He stops outside of Kaoru's door. Light shines from inside the room
showing she is still awake.
Takin' your heart and holdin' it tight
Emotional touch, touchin' my skin
And asking you to do what you've been doin' all over again
A nostalgic look crosses over Kenshin's face
Oh it's a beautiful thing, don't think I can keep it all in
I just gotta let you know what it is that won't let me go
Kenshin reaches out to knock on the door but hesitates. Thoughts of
Kaoru flash through his mind.
It's your love
Kaoru smiling.
It just does something to me
It sends a shock right through me
Kaoru walking through town in a kimono.
I can't get enough
And if you wonder
Kaoru practicing in the dojo.
About the spell I'm under
Oh it's your love
Kenshin watching Kaoru doing all of these things with a small smile
on his face.
Better than I was,
Image of Kenshin wandering around Japan.
More than I am
Flash of Kenshin readying himself for a fight.
And all of this happened by taking your hand
Kaoru reaches out her hand to Kenshin as they walk back to the dojo
after returning from Kyoto.
And who I am now is who I wanted to be
Kenshin takes her and walks beside her.
And now that we're together,
I'm stronger than ever
I'm happy and free
Typical scenes of the Kenshin-gumi around the dojo flash by... Kaoru
and Yahiko arguing playfully... Megumi wrapping Sano's hand... Kaoru laughing
at something someone had said.
Oh it's a beautiful thing,
Don't think I can keep it all in
If you asked me why I've changed,
All I gotta do is say your sweet name
Scenes of Kenshin doing the typical domestic chores, looking content
and enjoying the company of those around him.
It's your love
It just does something to me
Kenshin remembers fighting for Kaoru.
It sends a shock right through me
I can't get enough
First against Gohei.
And if you wonder
About the spell I'm under
Then against Jinnei.
Oh, it's your love
Baby, Oh oh, oh,
Finally, thinking of her to keep fighting against Shishio.
Musical bridge.
Shots of Kaoru looking worried each time Kenshin leaves for battle and
her relief when he returns.
Oh it's a beautiful thing,
Don't think I can keep it all in
Shot of Kenshin holding Kaoru in the cloud of fireflies as he said goodbye
when leaving for Kyoto.
I just gotta let you know what it is that won't let me go
Nervously, Kenshin knocks on the door.
It's your love
It just does something to me
Inside the room a form shifts.
It sends a shock right through me
I can't get enough
Upon hearing her voice, Kenshin slides the door open to reveal Kaoru
sitting in the room reading. She is dressed for sleeping and her hair is
loose.
And if you wonder
About the spell I'm under,
Kenshin steeles himself and swallows anxiously.
Oh it's your love
It's your love, it's your love, it's your love
Opening his mouth to speak, Kenshin slides the door closed.
Owari...
Author's Notes- Dang this was hard to write... after
I finally found the lyrics to the song, I started and quit this thing about
five times in one day. But the idea wouldn't go away... I know this fic
isn't that good but it was either write it or go insane every time I heard
this song. <sigh>
This little song fic came about after receiving a huge
amount of Kenshin and buying Tim McGraw's "Everywhere" CD on the same day.
Every song I listen to reminds me of a different character (I've got Kenshin
on the brain <sigh>). It is dedicated to all of the romantic fics that
have been going around lately.
"It's Your Love" originally sung by Tim McGraw and Faith
Hill. Yes this is country... you got a problem with that?^_^
