After my lips left his, the power within his vessel surged through me like electricity. From my lips to my throat and heart and all the way down to my-

"This is how it should have been," Kenshin whispers in my ear, not meaning to, but sounding very seductive.

Like a blast of wind, he hits me with his icy cold stare, except this time his eyes are honest and filled with emotion and feelings. No longer is he hiding his hearts desires from me or the world.

Luckily his breathe warms me like Hawaii, keeping me cozy and comfortable in a tight hug. Whenever he embraces me, I feel comfortable and at ease. Maybe, just maybe you're correct, Kenshin.

But Kenshin has never been more than a good friend to me. I never imagined us being intimate. Not before Sasuke, not during our rough patches, not during our best. So, why am I imagining it now?

Looking into his eyes, I see a war ending. From the first time he tried to kiss me, I knew he wouldn't give up. Kenshin never came out and explained his feelings after the incident, but his eyes showed me everything. That was a long time ago though.

Anyone who knows Kenshin could tell you that when he finds something he's passionate about, he persues it. I knew the moment his rough thumb began to trace my lower lip I was already in too deep, but denying was anyways easier for me than to admit. I knew I was his passion, deep inside my heart, I always knew.

But after so long... his feelings came back? Or possibly, they were there all along?

My heart races just thinking of him being the one, my true love. I might not be celebrating my special day with the love of my life, Sasuke but instead I might have Kenshin. Could I do anything about it? I could always run away, but then I'd be leaving Sasuke.

The energy surrounding him is strong and bright. A hint of happiness brushes over the top of my heart in seeing his gentle smile. I smile to myself looking down, away from him. I can't want this even if it can't be stopped.

But a part of me deep down has always longed for a place in his precious heart.

No one understands him like I do, but that's the relationship I've had with him since I got here 4 years ago. I pushed my way into his heart with just being me, different, strange. Inside he's changed so much, grown into a stronger person.

His hand reaches out for mine. Staring at his hands, the paleness in his skin, veins running up his arm, discolored scare tissue from past fights. Even a single cell in his body holds more power than my whole body, a strand of his hair carries a bigger story than myself could ever tell.

The power and talent this man holds, he can barely contain... Words, I'm at a loss for them. How could I support someone so big? Someone as tremendously important as the God of War, Kenshin Uesugi

I glance over at my now ex boyfriend, just feet away, and then back at my... fiance? Is this what I wanted? I never dreamed it would be, but the way the stone cold man says my name so delicately and the way his fingers gently trace my bare arms... I can't help but get excited.

A sickening excitement, something I have never felt before, something I don't want to feel. I love Sasuke, the only reason we fell apart is because we were apart, and because that's what we allowed.

My hand reaches out for his. He doesn't pull away or hesitant to lace his fingers in mine, even though I hesitated at first. He's been waiting for me ever since the first time we kissed, maybe before.

I love Sasuke, so how is this possible to like another soul? Could it be this similar circumstance that brought us together? If Sasuke was never here, would Kenshin have been the right one all along?
Maybe I'm just upset, maybe I'm jealous that I can't have the one I want and so I want someone to fill that void.
