Chapter Two
Shino sat on the porch thinking about everything. A lot of time went by, she had been on a mission but that didn't mean that she was far from his mind. He was beyond infatuated with her. They never really talked much but he couldn't help but know that he was attracted to her, she was the first and only person who he could not easily read. There was something about her that interested him, she was so gentle with her patients at the hospital but she also had a fiery temper. He knew that he would never be able to focus knowing that she had the possibility of being injured. He shook his head, clearing that though from his head.
She would be fine, it will be a month since the chunien exams tomorrow, he had to keep a clear head knowing that he had a match,
'I need to be strong, I need to prove to her that I can protect her.'
All of a sudden his mother appeared in front of him,
"Mother?"
She smiled down at him,
"I sense there is something on your mind…want to talk about it?"
She questioned as she sat down beside him. He shook his head. He was never good with dealing his emotions, he never talked about them either. His mother was the only person he actually talked to about most things, he figured this might be the time when his mother's advice could be useful, she was a girl after all.
"I was just thinking about someone…"
His mother smiled at him,
"A girl?"
He looked up at her and nodded, she was always good at reading him. She smiled,
"Well why don't you just talk to her?"
He looked up at her,
"That's easier said than done Mom, she's been on a mission for a while, she should be back tomorrow for the second stage of the exams…"
"Ahhh…so she's a kunoichi? Do I know her?"
Shino smiled and exclaimed
"I am sure you do Mom, she's kind of hard to miss…"
His mom smiled down at him,
"Alright well the only question your father would want to know is if she's powerful, if she is then he's alright…"
"Well she trained with Lady Tsunade, she's the best Medical Ninja in the village."
His mother smiled, thinking of medic ninja's in the village, her thoughts were interrupted,
"She saved Hinata during the second stage of the exams…"
His mom stopped talking for a minute to think, she was starting to put everything together, Hinata was like his sister, she knew who it was and just smiled,
"Perfect!"
She exclaimed as she clapped her hands together. She had always loved the pink kunoichi's energy and eagerness to help out others. She was always kind to Shino while all others shunned him. She nodded her agreement with his choice. She smiled,
"well my dear son I believe that you just have to talk to her, prove to her why she should be with you."
He just looked at her,
"well how do I do that?"
She smiled and exclaimed,
"I believe that when the time comes you will know."
She patted his shoulder and walked back into the house.
