Me: but I will! Please! Please! Please! Please! Please! Plleeaass!
Kaya: (rolls eyes) just give her a review, and end this please!
Akamaru ran with me looking concern.
"Don't worry boy I'm fine."
I told him. He nodded but didn't look convince. We got to my sis work in no time walking in I said hello to the patients, and went into Hana's office.
"We're here sis can we do?"
I asked her.
"Great now I have two sets of hands."
She said bandaging a cat's paw.
"Two?"
I asked.
"Ok I'm back!"
I stiffened.
'I know that voice anywhere.'
I thought.
"Man it took me forever to find that bathroom."
Naruto said walking in. when he saw me his smile dropped, and was replaced with a slight glare.
"What is 'it' doing here?"
I asked Hana.
"Who are you calling 'it' huh?"
"Well?"
I asked ignoring him.
"Iori."
She said in a warning tone.
"Hey don't ignore me!"
Naruto shouted waving his arms in the air.
"Get to work you two. Akamaru you help anyone who needs it out there."
Hana said letting him the waiting room.
"And you two take those boxes to the back room."
"Right."
I said.
"Got it!"
Grabbing a stack of boxes filled most likely with medicines we took them to the back room.
"So why are you here? Hana didn't say anything about you being here today."
I asked.
"I went to have ramen ran into your sister she asked if I could help out I said yeah here we are."
He explained.
"Great."
I rolled my eyes. We were on our last trip when Hana said.
"Can one of you bring me a blue box filled bandages?"
"Yeah."
I answered. After the last trip I looked around for the box Hana needed.
"A blue box?"
I said out loud.
"That one?"
Naruto asked. I looked at where he was pointing finding said box.
"Yeah great job Baka."
I said.
"Stop calling me a Baka!"
He shouted. I chuckled shaking my head.
"No you are."
I said. The box was pretty high up that I couldn't really reach it.
'Maybe I should ask Naruto…? No! I can get it without him!'
I thought. I stood on my tipy toes trying to reach it.
"Hey maybe I should get."
Naruto said. I shook my head.
"I got it."
I told him. My fingertips were barely able to touch.
"Iori let me do it."
Naruto said. I heard him walking over to me when I felt the boxes I was leaning on tip, and knocked over more boxes.
"Iori!"
I heard Naruto shout. I closed my eyes waiting for the boxes to crush me when they didn't. I felt the floor under me not remembering when I fell, and something warm over me. I finally opened my eyes looking strait into ocean blue ones.
"Are you ok?"
Naruto asked. I stared wide eyes at him. He was on all fours right on top of me, and the boxes that I thought was going to crush me was plied up on his back.
"N-N-N-Naruto to… you…?"
I was at a lost for words, and extremely embarrassed.
"I what? Ow… man what's in these thing rocks?"
I couldn't help the giggle that escaped. Naruto stared down at me with wide eyes.
"What?"
I asked my cheeks turning a vary dark red.
"You… you giggled."
He said in awe.
"So?"
I asked looking away from his beautiful blue eyes. He caressed my cheek.
"It's cute."
He said. My cheeks got hotter if that was possible.
'Cute? Naruto thinks it's cute? W-w-what?'
I stuttered in my own mind. I glanced at him with my head still down.
"Iori are you ok?"
He asked again. I nodded.
"Yeah but what about you?"
I asked remembering about the boxes. He shook his head.
"I'm fine no worries."
He said. Again remembering the position we were in looked away from him.
"We should get up."
I mumbled glancing at him. He looked confused. I looked down in between our bodies hoping he would get it. He looked as well, and blushed. He stood on his knees knocking the boxes off of his back.
"Sorry."
He muttered looking to the side. I sat up noticing my legs were still in between his.
"It's ok."
I said back.
"Man we made a mess huh?"
I was surprise he said 'we,' and not me.
"Don't you mean me?"
I asked. He shook his head.
"I mean we Iori I should've helped you sooner."
"What?"
I asked not believing it.
"It's your fault for not asking for help, and my fault for stopping you."
"Wow Naruto you're actually helping me? I'm surprise."
He shrugged.
"Well… I… hmm…?"
'Is that a blush? Is Naruto blushing?'
"Naruto are you blushing."
I asked with a smile? I was smiling at Naruto Uzumaki.
'Maybe I like him more then I thought… what!? No! I don't like bone head!"
I mentally scolded myself.
"Well let's clean up."
I said. He nodded.
"Yeah… Iori?"
"Yea?"
I nodded not looking at him.
"Do you like anybody?"
I dropped the box I was holding to turn to him at a speed that gave me whiplash.
"W-w-w-what?"
I asked.
"Do… you… like… anyone…?"
He muttered the last word. My eyes widened. I looked to the ground the shuffling my feet nervously.
"Well I… I…"
I didn't know what to say. I don't like anyone other then… then him but I can't tell him that he'll laugh at me. I shook mentally, and fiscally.
"No."
I answered turning back to boxes. I heard Naruto mumbling behind me but I couldn't tell what he was saying.
"I'm done with my pile."
He said.
"Can you take Hana's box to her then while I finish?"
I asked him. I needed to be alone for a minute to think about the question he asked me.
"Yeah sure. I'll be back!"
He called out the door. An hour later we were done with boxes so Hana let us go.
"I'll see ya Iori."
Naruto said walking away from me.
"Sure thing Blondie."
I said back.
"And we're back."
I heard him muttered under his breath.
'What does that mean?'
I thought. With a sigh I let it go.
"Pup! Get up it's 7:37 I let you sleep now up!"
Ma shouted downstairs. I sat up groaning.
"I hate mornings."
Akamaru whimpered tiredly on the floor next to me.
"I'm gonna change."
I told him. Going downstairs Hana was already gone for work.
"Pup lady Hokage wants to see you this morning."
Ma said feeding Akamaru. I nodded.
"Kay I'll go now. Akamaru stay finish eating I'll be.
I told him. He nodded into his food. I jumped along the roofs to the Hokage toward.
"Hey Shizune."
I greeted.
"Morning Iori go on in."
She said waving her hands to the door. I went in seeing Tsunade at her desk, and… Naruto?
"What's up?"
I asked. Naruto only shrugged.
"Don't know."
He said. Looking at Tsunade she took out a scroll with the Kazekage on it.
"I need you two to take this scroll to Gaara in the sand."
She said.
"Lady Tsunade why me, and Baka here?"
I asked pointing at Naruto.
"Quit calling me that!"
He said pissed. I rolled my eyes.
"Because I have your team Iori with Guy's team on a mission to the waves, and I have Naruto's team with Shikamaru's team on their to the grass…"
"Hey how come I didn't go with my team?"
Naruto demanded.
"Same here?"
She sighed.
"Because I needed you two to take the scroll."
'That makes no sense.'
I thought but I wasn't gonna argue with lady Tsunade she's scary. Like Naruto read my mind.
"That makes no sense!"
He exclaimed. I covered his mouth seeing as I was right next to him, and his hollering was hurting my ear. Damn dog hearing.
"I don't have to make sense Naruto now go."
She ordered tossing me the scroll.
"But why couldn't I…?"
"Naruto I thought you be glad to see Gaara, and Iori I thought you be happy as well to see Kankuro."
She said a raised brow.
"Of course I want to see Gaara…"
"Then go."
Tsunade said waving us out. Naruto stormed out of the room with a childess huff. I rolled my eyes at him again.
"See you when we get back lady Tsunade."
I said to her heading for the door.
"Oh! And Iori do try to get a long wouldn't want Naruto left dead in Suna."
She joked. I nodded.
"I'll try."
I said walking out. Naruto, and me split up to go pack, and were to meet at the gate in twenty.
