Okay, so finally I'm gonna post that story......

well part of it.  I'm giving you a teaser.  ^_^  The rest of it will be on fanfiction.net....I'll give you the exact link.  Anyway, here it is finally.

Kaoru groggily opened her eyes.  The world around her was fuzzy with sleep and she blinked a few times until she saw clearly.  She sleepily brushed her hair out of her azure eyes.

‘It was nice sleeping until…wait, what time is it?’  Kaoru wondered.  She glanced at the clock and the red figures told her it was 8:44.

‘That’s not that late.’ Kaoru thought disappointedly as she rolled over on to her back, trying to get back to sleep.  When she closed her eyes a wild thought flew across her mind.  ‘What day is it?’

Kaoru sat straight up in panic.  ‘It’s Thursday!’  She grabbed her alarm clock and looked at the time again.  8:45

“FUCK!” she cursed, jumping out of bed.  She had missed her first class and her next class was at 9:30.  Tripping on her clothes strewn about the floor, she fell flat on her face.  Cursing, she picked herself up and grabbed her shower kit off her dresser and clothes from the floor that she hoped were somewhat clean and would match.  She dug around for a clean bra and underwear and ran to the bathroom across the hall, hoping to take a shower.

She was relieved when she raced into the bathroom finding it empty, meaning she did not have to wait in line and be even later.  She ran to the nearest shower, slipping and almost falling again.  She grabbed on to the nearest wall of the shower stall and began taking her extremely quick shower.  She turned on the water and jumped under it.  But as soon as she jumped in, she shrieked as ice cold water hit her skin.

“Fucking hell!”

Kaoru frantically turned the shower dial to hot water, but there was no change in temperature, in fact it got even colder!  Glowering, Kaoru rushed to finish her shower and still be somewhat clean by the end of it.

‘Kuso, everyone else must have taken the nice hot water.  Damn them.  I’m late and I have to take a cold shower!  I have a feeling today is going to be one of my worst days ever!’

By the time Kaoru was done with her shower, her teeth were chattering and she could barely feel her toes that had been in the cold water the entire time…the shower she had chosen also had an issue with draining the water properly and promptly.  She quickly dried herself off, attempting to get feeling back into her limbs.  The attempt failed…miserably.  She slipped on her mismatched bra and panties and picked up a piece of clothing she had grabbed off the floor.  She held up the unidentified piece of clothing and found it was the large pair of sweat pants she had been wearing the night before.  She draped them over the cubicle’s wall.  The next piece of mystery clothing turned out to be a pair of jeans she had cleaned in her most recent adventure with her laundry.  Kaoru pulled on the clean pair of jeans and looked down at her bare stomach.

“SHIT!”

Her curse echoed inside the bathroom as she tried to improvise using the paints to cover her almost bare torso.  As the sweatpants weren’t working in any way possible, Kaoru wrapped her towel around her body, hoping that it would stay secure for the walk back to her room.  Picking up her toiletries, Kaoru looked around the shower area and made sure she didn't leave anything behind.

Running through the hallway, Kaoru concentrated on what she had to get done before she went to class.  ‘Okay, I need to print out my paper, hmmm…Where is my flash drive? That has my paper on it…’

Thinking that the hallway was clear, she ran into a solid figure and was knocked from her feet.  Her hands - which had been full of various items - were now empty, her possessions scattered around in the hallway.  Cursing again, she struggled to at least keep her hold on her towel.  She looked up into the amused purple eyes of a stranger.  She glared at him, her blue eyes accusing.

“Ohayoo,” he said, smiling.

“What are you laughing at?!” she demanded while his smirk widened as her distress skyrocketed.

“And who are you glaring at?” he asked her mildly.

“You!  You knocked me down!”

“Well you ran into me!”

“You shouldn’t have been standing in the middle of the hallway!  You should have gotten out of my way!”  Kaoru glared at him, accusing, fierce and angry.

He laughed, the clear perfect sound ringing in the hallway.  The pure sound of laughter startled Kaoru, her anger dissipating quickly.

“Let me help you up,” he said, smiling down at her and offering his hands.

Kaoru - startled by this gesture - glared at him in an attempt to keep her angry façade on a little longer.  “Arigato,” she mumbled, hoping he wouldn’t be able to hear her.  Taking his hands she was surprised to find them callused and strong.

“Doitashimashite,” he replied with his smile still in place and pulled her to her feet.

“Arigato gozaimasu,” she thanked him again, adding a little bow.

“Doitashimashite.  Honestly, it’s no problem.” His eyes sparkled mischievously.  “After all, I’m the only who knocked you down.”

Kaoru blushed and looked away, but glanced back at him to study his face.  Now standing, Kaoru realized that he was short, only and inch or two taller than her.  He had long red hair that he kept away from his almost feminine looking face.  His long thick bangs hung in his purple…no purple flecked with amber eyes.  ‘I could have sworn they were just purple…just purple,’ Kaoru thought.  She openly stared at his eyes, which were becoming more and more flecked with amber.

He cleared his throat and Kaoru blushed and looked away, he following her example and looking down at the floor.

“Um…excuse me…I think you might want to pick up your towel…”

“Excuse me?!”

“Well, I think your towel fell off when you fell and I think you forgot to pick it up…” he said slowly, careful to keep his eyes away from any certain areas of her body.

Kaoru looked down to find what he was saying was true…horribly true.  Kaoru blushed scarlet and picked up her towel.  Face still hot with shame and glaring at the offending man, she wrapped her towel around herself securely.

“You hentai!  You were looking at me this whole time!”

He raised his hands in defense.  “No, I wasn’t!  Honestly, I wasn’t looking at you!”

“Yes you were!  We were having a conversation!”

“If I recall correctly,” he said calmly, “You were staring at my eyes.  And I wasn’t looking there…I kept my eyes on your face.”

Kaoru narrowed here eyes in suspicion.  “I know you…YOU’RE ONE OF SANO’S FRIENDS!”

He sighed and nodded.  “No idea why…but yes, I am.”

“Then you were definitely looking at me, you hentai!”

“I’m nothing like Sano!  If I was like Sano, I wouldn’t have told you.”

Kaoru paused, weighing his words.  “…True…”

“Now, shall I help you pick everything up?”
“Fine,” Kaoru said, still upset that her towel had betrayed her.

They picked up Kaoru’s scattered toiletries with Kaoru growing more and more embarrassed by the second.  She hurriedly shoved the items in the bag she kept them in, rushing so this somewhat stranger and Sano’s friend wouldn’t see every toiletry she ever used.  The items he picked up, he put in the bag she held out to him, her face getting hotter and hotter.

“Arigato gozaimasu for all your help.”

“Doitashimashite.  Anytime you ever need anything I would be glad to help.  Just let me know.”

Kaoru nodded swiftly and ran to her room and left him standing in the hallway, watching her scamper away from him.

Okay!  I hope you all enjoyed it!  If you did, please go here!  >>>  http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3551515/1/
