Morng came and the sun shone out red and violent as ever.It was the morning after they

told each other about how much they loved each other.The rays hit the curtains of the room

where we find them still asleep in the silken bed.The two of them,still wearing their clothes

from last night,slept peacefully,cuddled up next to each other.

Outside though,a very unhappy Kakuzu walked up and down the entrance with an upset look

on his face.

"Grr...why'd I buy those useless barstools when I could've just bought some more sake

for myself..."

Meanwhile,still in bed,Pein slowly came to his senses,peering through his exhausted eyes.

Who would've known how long they stayed up last night.He opened his eyes to see a

very happy Konan next to him,still asleep.He was imagining what had happened that

night,telling her that he loved her and that in turn,she loved him back.'I wonder when

we'll get to do some more passion together?'he wondered reaching out his hand to

stroke her sleepless form.Unknown to Pein however,Konan was now awake and when

he toughed her she moaned,opening her eyelids slowly.

"Dana?Why are you looking at me like that?"Konan replied weakly.

Pein couldn't speak...he just watched her,blushing intently.

"I-I didn't mean to wake you up Konan.I'm sorry..."

But before he knew what was happening,she kissed him with even more passion

than before.He blushed,and withought thinking,he reached over and touched her

face.They soon,however,broke their kiss once more,gasping for air.Konan got

up slowly and went to the bathroom to take a nice relaxing shower before going

downstairs for breakfast.

After both of them got dressed,they set off down to the kitchen,finding it empty

as expected.Pein told them that they were to go on two missiona.Find the nine-tailed

fox for their next sealing,or gather info on their enemies.the two partners sat down at

the bar,looking fondly at each other."So tell me Dana...what do you think of me?"

she inquired,still gazing at his handsome face.Pein looking doubtfully,couldn't

find anything to say,but instead he pressed his body against hers.She,feeling

his warm body against hers,felt goosebumps down her back.She had never been

this close to him since ever.As time went by,the sun now going down,theywent to

the living room and wait for the other members to return.After what seemed like

forever,they all came back,dirty and hurt with blood stains on their cloak.Every

last one of them just ploped on the two couches,exhausted as ever.They had

no luck finding any information,except that they found out that the Nine-Tailed

Fox boy lived in Konohagure,the Village Hidden in the Leaves.The leader agreed

allowing them to do whatever needed to be done tonight.They bowed and went

up to their rooms,mostly to take a warm soothing shower.After all of them

closed their doors shut,Pein and Konan went back up to their room,waiting for

the dark of night to come.
