Chapter 4

The next few days went by and life was normal for the two brothers, but then came the day both boys have been dreading, the day that their parents had to leave for the month long trip. It was early in the morning when Kenshin and his parents woke up and met in the living room.
“I’ll go get Ryan and bring him down, he’s really going to miss you guys.” Said Kenshin.
Kenshin walked into Ryan’s room and then softly nudged his shoulder.
“Hey lil bro get up mom and dad will be leaving soon.”
Ryan’s eyes slowly opened and then looked over at Kenshin.
“Ah, big bro why did you wake me up?” said Ryan still half asleep and a little annoyed.
“Mom and dad are going to be leaving in a few minutes and I know you want to say goodbye.”
Ryan was fully awake now and Kenshin picked him up and took him to the living room and then set him down, he got up and ran to their mom and dad giving each of them a big hug.
“I don’t want you guys to leave.” Ryan sobbed into his mothers arms
Mom sat Ryan in her lap and hugged him.
“We don’t want to go either but you need to be strong and you have your grand parents and Kenshin to look after you.”
This made Ryan stop and look at Kenshin that had sat down next to them.
“I’ll look after you lil bro, you can count on it.” Said Kenshin smiling
Ryan smiled to and crawled over to hug his brother.
“Well we need to get going and you two need to get ready for school.” Said there father.
The boys nodded and got up from the couch to help load up the car and then hugged there parents and wished them well.
“We will miss you, be good and be happy.” Said mom
They nodded and then stood there by the front door waving as there parents drove off. Once they were out of sight kenshin closed the door and then turned to Ryan.
“Well now that that’s done we got to get ready.”
They then walked into Ryan’s room and got him changed and dressed for the day in a black t-shirt and blue jeans. Once that was done Kenshin took Ryan into the living room and turn the TV on and let Ryan watch Blue’s clues well kenshin got ready.
Kenshin returned 20 minutes later dressed in black like always with his hair back in a ponytail wearing John Cena wrist bands.
“Ok lets get some breakfast, what are you hungry for?”
“Waffles yelled Ryan excitedly
“You got it.” And within a few minutes Kenshin returned with a stack of waffles covered in syrup for the both of them and then changed the channel so they could watch Bleach as they ate.
When the show ended Kenshin looked over at the clock which read 6:30.
“Ok we better get going and took the empty plates and put them in the sink and grabbed his and Ryan’s backpacks and tossed Ryan his then turned off the TV and grabbed his car keys.
“But were am I going to get on the bus? Asked Ryan slightly puzzled.
“I made a deal with Rachel’s parents and you will be ridding the bus with her to school and then you will take the bus to her house in the afternoon and I will pick you up from her house.”
Rachel was an 8 year old girl that Ryan had been friends with for a while now and Ryan had developed a crush on her a few weeks ago but was to embarrassed to admit it to her.
Ryan ran up to Kenshin and gave him a big hug.
“Thank you so much Kenshin.” Ryan said with a big smile on his face.
Kenshin hugged him and they walked out the door and Kenshin reached into his pocket and pulled out his keys and locked the door and turned to walk to the car which Ryan was already there jumping up and down in existent. Kenshin unlocked the car and strapped Ryan into his car seat and then got in and they drove for about 5 minutes and then pulled into Rachel’s driveway and Kenshin let Ryan out of his car seat handed him his backpack and walked him to the door and rang the bell. Within a few seconds Rachel’s mom answered the door and greeted them with a smile.
“Alright now you be good and have fun at school, I’ll be here to pick you up at 3.” Said Kenshin as he kneeled down and gave his brother a hug.
“I will.” Ryan said with a big smile on his face.
Kenshin the got to his feet ruffed Ryan’s hair and then got back in the car and drove off to school.
Kenshin got to school and waited in there normal hang out spot for his friends to show up.
“Hey Ken-Chan” said Kadis as she gave him a hug and a kiss.
“Hey Kadis, how’s my nee-Chan?”
“Good.” Said Kadis blushing a little bit.
“Hey shiseicof”
Kenshin and kadis turned to find Sandman walking toward them.
Josh a.k.a. Sandman was a tall, short-haired guy about 17 known for playing the tough guy act but everyone knew that he was a big softy at heart and just didn’t want to show it.
“Oh shut up dopsiedo” said kadis and Kenshin at the same time.
“I see that you smoked this weekend.” Said kenshin looking at Sandman seeing the tired weird look he always had after he smoked pot.
“You know that stuff is bad for you.”
All turned and saw jasmine walking toward them.
Jasmine a 15 year old native American girl that had the tendency to not act her age and instead act like a 5 yr old. She was very motherly, but also very immature and that’s what the group liked about her.
“Hey Kenshin, Kadis, Josh what’s up?” said jasmine as she walked over and gave kenshin a hug like she did every morning which made Kadis give her one of her “let him go or I’ll kill you.” Looks and Jasmine just smiled and let go.
“nothing really just bored.” Said Kenshin as he yawned.
I”I see, now josh are you going to tell me where you have the pot or and I going to have to make you?” said Jasmine with a stern look.
“Your going to have to make me.” Josh said smiling.
“Very well.” Said Jasmine and then turned around to compose herself for a minute and then turned around really fast and kick Josh square in the nuts which made him drop to the ground and clutch his testicles in pain.
“Now are you going to tell me?”
Josh nodded and reached into his pocket pulling out a case containing five joints of pot in it and gave it to Jasmine.
“see how easy that was.” Said Jasmine with a smile on her face with Kenshin and Kadis laughing at what had just taken place.
Jasmine walked over to the trash can and throw the pot away.
“Damn” said Josh now getting to his feet.
“You got to admit she has a point Sandman, you really should really lay off the magic plants for a while.” Said kenshin now sitting one a nearby table with Kadis sitting on his lap.
“Never!, I’m a pot head until I…”
Josh’s voice trilled off when he saw Jasmine getting ready for another kick.
“I’ll be good.” Said Josh finally
“Good.” Said Jasmine with a smile on her face as she went over and hugged him.
Just then the bell rang and is startled Jasmine causing her to yell into Josh’s ear.
“Dang already, oh well see you all at lunch.” Said Kenshin getting off the table and he started to grab his bag and walk off when he felt something tugging on his shirt. He turned around and Kadis was looking at him with puppy dog eyes.
“Forgetting something Ken-Chan?”
“Aw how could I forget?” Kenshin hugged and kissed Kadis and then gave her a smile.
“Now that’s better.” Kadis said with a smile on her face.
“I’ll miss you Kadis.”
“I’ll miss you too Ken-Chan.”
They kissed once more and then everyone walked to their classes. The day what really boring for kenshin the same routine:

After school he met Kadis by the bus ramp.
“What are you doing here, I got a car you know.”
“I know but I was wanting to talk with my friends on the bus.”
“I’m going to go pick up Ryan at his friends house.”
This made Kadis smile and blush a little bit.
“Ok you win.” Kadis said still smiling and kissing him on the cheek.
“Yay, he’ll be happy to see you.” Said Kenshin with a smile
They walked to Kenshin’s car and drove over to Rachel’s house. They got out of the car, walked to the door and rang the bell Rachel’s mom came to the door and greeted them with a smile.
Hey Kenshin how’s this?”
“This is my friend Kadis.” Said Kenshin with a grin.
Rachel and Ryan walked to the fount door to see what was going on and when Ryan saw it was Kenshin he ran over and gave him a big hug.
“Hey lil bro, look who I brought a lot with me.” Ryan turned to see Kadis and he squealed with delight.
“Hi sweetie.” Said Kadis with a smile and hugged Ryan and Kenshin in a big hug which made Ryan blush.
“You ready to go home?”
“Not just yet.” Said Ryan as he looked over at Rachel
Kenshin got the message and let Ryan down and he went over and gave Rachel a big hug.
‘I’ll see you tomorrow.” Ryan said smiling.
Rachel gave him a little kiss on the cheek and made Ryan blush
“Ok big bro I’m ready.” Said Ryan walking back to kenshin and Kadis smiling and still a little red.
They all said goodbye and then they walked to the car, Kenshin strapped Ryan in his car seat, and then they drove off in the direction of Kadis’s house.
