Summary
Kaoru buys Sano's old motorcycle--without telling Kenshin, of course. Maybe she wants to ride a rebellious crotch-rocket with a safety rating of a two-year-old rollerskating along the highway... or maybe, just maybe, Kaoru still hasn't forgiven Kenshin for his trip to Kyoto minus his right-hand lady. (Includes rare but sage life advice from Misao)

Bookmarker's Notes
His hand lifted to her cheek and he pulled her in close to kiss her, his touch unbelievably gentle. His lips were soft and warm, and the feel of his breath on her skin made her want to melt into him. “I love you,” he murmured. “I just want you to be safe.”

"His son fluttered under his hands twice more that night, until that cold outside drove them inside the house, and Kenshin’s heart was full in spaces he hadn’t known were empty."

Summary
Shishio has been defeated, and Kenshin has apparently given up any plans to start wandering again. But Kaoru feels vaguely dissatisfied with his gentle smiles and solicitude. Does Kenshin only care for her as he does for their other friends? Or is he just too gentlemanly to express the same yearning that runs through her veins? Can Kaoru, who wears her heart on her elegant sleeves, get Kenshin to reveal his true emotions?

"She wanted to tell him nothing mattered — not his past, not the dangers they had faced or the dangers that lay ahead. That this was his home, not just this house and this dojo, but here in her heart."

"...but Kaoru has just been told not to judge so she keeps her mouth shut, even though she has some choice words on the tip of her tongue about Kenshin's ass and how one could, if one wanted, bounce a quarter off of it."

Bookmarker's Notes
"He rested his arm along Kaoru’s, cradling their son with her, keenly aware of the lives he held in his arms – the lives that trusted him beyond reason and measure – as Dr. Oguni and the midwife politely averted their eyes from the tears on his face."
