He didn't shift his position while he slept, he was completely still.. I wanted to know how he slept while I, the daughter of the 'Snake-like' Orochimaru Tijiru was watching. It flattered me that he trusted me with his resting body.
I sighed, and he finally shifted his position.
"He trusts you.." Kabuto stated, observing how I was sitting next to his head on the floor while he lay on his bed.
"Kabuto, I don't care whether he trusts me or not.. I am the person who guards him in his sleep, and I was told that he doesn't want to be disturbed in his rest." My voice was failing at sounding tough, but Kabuto knew that if I wanted to I could do some serious damage to his face if provoked.
"You can't even hide you emotions!" Kabuto laughed.
Sasuke's eyes opened and focused on me.
"Kabuto," I said turning my attention from Sasuke's face to his, "You are disturbing his sleep.." Power surged through my voice, as my anger built from Sasuke's awakening.
Kabuto turned around and casually walked out of the room, closing the door silently.
I looked at Sasuke, who had closed his eyes.
"Your awake." I said, patting his head.
"Your point?" His voice sounded frustrated.
"I hope you could forgive me about earlier.. I'm practically blind when it's dark out." I said sincerely
"…. I don't understand why the snake's offspring is a blind cat.." Sasuke sounded pissed-off and amused at the same time.
"Yeah.." I said, "Neither do I…"
It became really silent between us for a couple minutes, and I noticed that I never took my hand off of his head. I slowly picked my hand up and placed it on my lap with the other.
Sasuke's eyes reopened and he looked at me.. Sensing his eyes on me, I turned to look at him. We stared into each others eyes, till he spoke.
"I do trust you." He assured me.
"Uh…" I looked away, blushing.
"I never thought that you could blush like that. It looks different." Sasuke's voice was peaceful.
"I-I'm not blushing!" I stuttered ,outraged.
"It is different that your voice is soft too.. When you speak to me, your voice doesn't sound like a prison wardens.." Sasuke was toying with my weaknesses, "Does your father know that you sing?" He asked curiously.
I clamped my hands over my mouth, "I thought you were sleeping!" I sang to him when he was sleeping to pass the time.
"You wake me up when you sing.. I like it…."
My eyes widened.
"Well goodnight…" He looked up to the ceiling, changing his position.
I sighed.. He had won this battle.
"Oh, and you should really show those off." He glanced at my breasts and smiled.
I started to grind my teeth together.
"Honest." His smile grew wider.
I narrowed my purple eyes, "I knew you were a pervert."
"No, not a pervert, but a man." I rolled my eyes as he closed his.
"Now sleep." I said, feeling exposed.
His face was unusually close to mine. I wasn't supposed to leave my placemat unless required. I wanted to lean forward and to press my face to his and lean my cheek against his.
He breathed in through his nose and out through his mouth. His breath smelled like candy, even though I distinctly remembered that he didn't eat sweets.. And I knew that the hide-out never served sweets to any out but Orochimaru, Kabuto, and I. Whenever I got them I would give them to the peasants and people who happened to live around the area in the sound when I went to town.
Sasuke's breath was naturally sweet smelling, it made me smile.
When he woke he looked at me. His eyes were tired… Angry.
"Sasuke," I said, "I guarded you as greatly I could!"
He pulled his torso up, almost like a zombie would. He then pushed his feet off the side of the bed so that he was sitting.
"Cut the crap." He grumbled, "All you did was drool over me.. As I slept." He was cruel, but only because he wasn't a morning person.
"Would you rather have Kabuto drooling over you and taking DNA samples?" I hissed.
Sasuke chuckled, "You didn't sing either."
"You never told me I had to!" I was getting angry, but I held myself together.
"I was expecting it though." He sounded hurt.
"Please forgive me!" I was truly sincere.
"Childish games. Why do I even bother talking to you." Sasuke muttered.
I was appalled, "What the heck are you talking about?"
He shrugged, "You have no clue, do you?"
"I don't have any clue when you just say something completely off subject!" I protested for the sake of my sanity.
"I'm sorry." He laughed and scratched his head.
"It's my fault." My voice turned back into its usual rough prison warden tone as I heard people approach the door.
"Your the psychic, you already know your future." Sasuke looked at me in a weird half glare/half amused look.
"I will die.. That's the new part." I smiled at him, "You will die later on... A few years maybe? I can't tell when your hair is spiked like a pathetic child's." Still smiling at him, he decided to join me and smile to.
"I like my hair!" He said enthusiastically, as if attempting to protest.
"My authority is at a higher rank than yours. You might just have to shave your head."
He laughed, "If I did, what would you do?"
"I only tolerate you for you awesomely cool hair!" I laughed and he smiled.
Sasuke's aura around him shifted, it turned serious and sad at the same time.
"We shouldn't talk to each other." He said.
I looked at him curiously.
"I know that you saw me killing you." He said, "Orochimaru told me... Is that why you started to socialize with me?"
"I didn't see you in my death." I lied, "I saw me being stupid." That wasn't a lie.
"If I did kill you.." He said, "We just have to find a simple way to crush fate."
"Impossible." I muttered.
"That is what you think.. I think otherwise." Sasuke tried to reason.
"I will die at the age of fifteen.. It has already been decided. I have the choice to die three ways." I explained.
"What?" Sasuke snapped.
"I die trying to find you by unexpectedly being ambushed by assassins." I revealed to him my first vision of my death.
I swallowed hard, preparing to say what I thought was the second worst, "I am killed by my own father, Orochimaru."
"The third?" Sasuke demanded after a long minute of waiting, while I was trying to think of a subject to change to.
"I'd rather not.." I said, looking away.
"I need to know this!" Sasuke demanded.
I shook my head, gripping my knee-caps so hard that they almost certainly bruised. The tears streaming freely down my face.
"I die protecting," I started.
"Protecting what?" His voice became filled with pity.
"You'll hate me." I said.
"No." he promised.
"I would only be fourteen when you do this... Orochimaru thinks it would be on the same level as murder." I said
"What do I do to you?" Sasuke peeled at my heart strings.
"P-protecting the-the," I stuttered.
"What happened?" His voice was piling on more pity.
"You might hate your self." I warned.
"TELL ME!" The pity was becoming greater.
"I die... I die.. Protecting o-our son!" It sounded so awful as it left my lips.
"What?" Sasuke snapped, all the pity he had gathered shattered.
"I give myself to you at the age of fourteen." I couldn't even try to suppress the tears.
"Your a year younger than me!" Sasuke clearly sounded enraged, "I am only fifteen! THIS YEAR?"
I nodded, "You kill one of my my family as well."
Sasuke looked at me, seeing the innocent child in my face. He saw how even though I was fourteen I would follow him to the ends of the repulsive planet Earth that we dwelled on.
"Your a kid.. Your a kid.. I can't do that." He sounded ashamed at himself.
"I'll admit I loved our child." I said.
"We will never meet him, because this is where we part." Sasuke sounded like he was crying.
My eyes widened, "You can't!"
He left the room in silence. Not even a simple glance in my direction
