Minato's Advice
Chapter 1- Ramen
"Wow Jiraiya-sensei! Thanks!" said Minato as he gulped down his ramen.
"You deserve it kid." I said.
"You're not gonna make me pay again, are you?" asked Minato with a suspicious look.
"No, no… maybe." I whispered.
"Jiraiya-sensei! The eldest is supposed to pay!" yelled Minato.
"The youngest has to pay his respects to his elders, as well as their meal." I said.
"Fine, whatever." said Minato with his snobby attitude.
Half way into our meal, Minato started speaking again.
"So, sensei, how's it going between you and Tsunade-hime?" asked Minato. I choked on my noodles.
CoughCough "What?!" I said, gasping for air.
"Oh, come on sensei! It's sooooo obvious! You like Tsunade-sama!" yelled Minato. I was lucky no one heard him.
"Shut up, kid! I don't know where you get these ideas!" I yelled as I blushed.
"Well, lets see. Every time she walks by, you stare at her. You always blush when even hearing her name, like now. Most importantly, whenever we're on missions, I can hear you mumble about her in your sleep." said Minato.
I stopped him before he could say anything else. I was no blushing so much that I probably looked like a lobster.
"Ok, so what if I have a tiny feeling of love for her. It would never work out. She'd probably punch me half way across the world before I could even try to kiss her." I said truthfully.
"Oh, so you DO want to kiss her." said Minato in a childish tone.
I turned red again. This kid was making a fool out of me.
"Just shut up Minato! So what if I do?!" I asked embarrassed.
"Well…" started Minato, but he stopped when someone walked into the ramen shop. That someone was the beautiful blonde Sannin, Tsunade.
"Good evening boys. How's the ramen? Mind if I sit next to you, Jiraiya?" asked Tsunade. I couldn't say no otherwise she would punch me.
"Sure, go right ahead." I told her. Minato let out a giggle.
He then whispered into my ear, "Come on sensei! Use our charm! I'll leave you two alone."
"No way Minato!" I yelled.
"Is something wrong?" asked Tsunade.
"No, not at all." I said.
"Well, I better get going. I'll leave you two, alone." said Minato as he left.
'Why that double-crossing little twerp', I thought to myself.
"Jiraiya, what's up with Minato?" asked Tsunade in her sweet voice.
"You know…kid things. You know how kids are these days." I said trying to cover up.
"Well, I guess it's just you and me." said Tsunade smiling.
I blushed. Was she actually happy to be with me?
"Jiraiya, umm…never mind." said Tsunade.
"What?" I asked, intrigued.
"Well…it's just…" stuttered Tsunade.
"What is it Tsunade?" I asked calmly.
"Do you…want to…umm…" said Tsunade, a blushing creeping on her face.
"What is it Tsunade? Is something wrong?" I asked.
"Nothing. I have to go." said Tsunade rushing out the restaurant, leaving me with a broken heart and a huge bill.
"I'm such a fool. To think she would actually like me." I griefed.
I paid the bill and left the restaurant. I walked back to my apartment and lay down on my bed. I thought about Tsunade and I fell asleep with my thoughts all on Tsunade.
