I started catching myself fantasizing about him. His name was Dawson. When it came down to the day, I didn’t even know it was going to happen. Shane...came over to my place and it just seemed normal to me. But he did keep asking if anyone else was home or was going to coming home soon. I just thought he was just curious and was making sure because he wanted to have sex. When he wanted sex it had to be us home alone or else he wouldn’t agree to it because he was embarrassed that I’m too loud. "We had orders to sail through the Canal and up the Adriatic to pick up Princess Elaheh who will be in Venice waiting for us," was the reply; Charles adding with pride, "I had us cast off and through the harbour bar in fifty-seven minutes from the moment the order came. It really made them hurry on the escort ship, I can tell you. They were a full four minutes behind us." Why was I not woken? You know my orders." Yes, Sir. Your orders are that you are to be woken at the slightest emergency. I. )(Misao stares in disbelief at Kaoru's memorial tablet.)Misao:... No.Yahiko: It's true. That's Kaoru. It's all too late. Kaoru was killed, and Kenshin was broken. And I couldn't do a thing about it... (Out of nowhere, Misao whacks him on the head with her traveling bag.)Misao: I don't want to hear you cry! That's pathetic!Yahiko: Hey!Misao: You can snivel later. (She pulls out a book and slams it down in front of him.) Right now there's something for you to do! This is what Kaoru asked me to. Waking up to the sight of an eight-foot needle is a little upsetting."She looked at me and then laughed at my description of the needles on the tray she was carrying. She was a professional; I had to give her that. She took three tubes of blood about as quickly as anyone I had seen. Then she thanked me for letting her do her job without getting mad, like some of the patients do. She was out the door before I could tell her she was very good. I hadn't felt a thing as she drew my blood. I lay.
