Astraphobia (Fear of Thunder)
Sign # 1:
Katon blinked slightly and looked to the sky. The clouds seemed to merge with one another, dominating the sky and painting it with a grayish color. She bit her lip. It looked like a storm was coming. She fidgeted slightly.
"Ne, Senpai? D-do you mind if we find a motel or something tonight? It looks like it's going to rain." She asked the taller black haired teen beside her.
Normally, her and the rest of the team would just camp outside, to save them the trouble of hiding in public. They only got a motel when it seemed like the weather was going to be really bad or the place seemed like a good spot to forge information. Rain storms were low on the bad weather list, but that wasn't why she was asking. The Uchiha looked to her, slightly confused.
"Well… I suppose, if we're able to…" He replied, voice the opposite of his confused expression – emotionless.
The red head seemed to let out a sigh of relief.
"Thanks…"
Sign # 2:
Founately, they had managed to find a motel, one with (luckily) 2 free rooms, one which would be for the boys and the other for the girls. They booked for one night, and then split up in mini groups – Karin and Juugo, Suigetsu and Akina, Mitsuki with Himeko, (who happened to appear out of thin air as usual. It was rather unnerving after the first couple of times.), And Sasuke with Katon. The town was very small, one of the smallest that they'll been too so far. Small towns were both one of the easiest to check and one of the most troublesome. They were easy, because due to the lack of people, finding someone out of the ordinary was like finding a dog in a flock of birds. It was troublesome, because due to the lack of people, it was easy for people to know that they didn't belong. Katon sighed as she scanned the small crowds of people for any sign of Akatsuki. No such luck. She was beginning to wonder that maybe Itachi was watching them some where from afar, thinking to himself that it was enjoyable to watch them squirm. She stole a glance to her companion. His facial features were as blank as usual, not even a shine of emotion in them. She wondered if – after the infamous Uchiha incident – he lost all of his emotions, or he was afraid of showing them again. Her eyes widen slightly as she was snapped out of her thoughts by a faint rumbling. Forcing a smile, Katon turned to her leader.
"Senpai, maybe we should try tomorrow. The storm's getting closer, so people will be trying to get indoors by now. Maybe we should find the others and go back to the motel." She suggested her voice a little too happy sounding, and her smile a little too forced.
Sasuke glanced down at her once more. This was the second time that she had been acting strange. It wasn't like her to suggest that they find a motel or turn in early. It was usually Karin or Suigetsu, and sometimes Mitsuki. Something was tugging at the back of his mind; a possible answer for the behavior. He ignored it.
"Fine…"
Sign # 3:
It took a while to locate everyone again, but when they entered the motel, the rain started to fall. It was a little heavy, with the occasional lightning and loud booms of thunder. Sasuke retreated to the bathroom first, to take a warm shower. As the water fell on his overly tense body, he pondered on the peculiar behaviors of his blue eyed teammate. She seemed awfully jumpy today, a little too jumpy. They had slept outside in the rain before, but for some reason she didn't want to today. She was picky with the weather she slept in, unlike Karin. And it was her that suggests they went inside early. Something was eating at her… and the answer was smack dab in his face, but he couldn't figure it out. The Uchiha snorted as he stepped out of the shower. Whatever. He didn't care anyway. So what if she wanted to sleep in a motel tonight? Maybe she just didn't want to get wet. He didn't care about her motives or why she did things. It wasn't like he had feelings for her or anything.
Later that night, he stayed awake. He didn't know why he was unable to go to sleep. Maybe it was because of the fact that the storm was still raging on, the lighting and thunder making it impossible to sleep. Perhaps it was the fact that Suigetsu was snoring like a banshee and made him wonder as to why he didn't get a room to his self. Sasuke let out a soft sigh before, closing his eyes again, making another attempt to get sleep.
"S-s-Senpai….?"
His black eyes flew back open at the familiar soft voice, and looked to the door. There stood Katon, seemingly shaking slightly and breathing in quick pants of fright. He sat up quickly. What happened? Did someone find out about them and attacked? Her teary blue eyes meet his for a second before another boom of thunder made them close, a small sound of fear coming from her mouth. At that, he understood. Looking back, the signs had been as clear as day. Katon Kajiki had Astraphobia. … Damn he was slow. Shaking a little more, she looked back up to him.
"I-I'm sorry if I w-woke you up or a-anything, but… e-everyone else was asleep, s-so…"
The Uchiha sighed, and had to put up a bit force to keep his straight face as he extended a hand to her. She looked a bit surprised at that at looked in his eyes.
"Come on… you can sleep with me."
Before he could get "with" out, Sasuke felt a soft firm warmth hit his chest, clutching onto him tightly.
"T-thank you…" Came the muffled response, the tight grip not slacking.
With a sigh, the Uchiha laid back down with the small girl on top of him, her arms around him tightly. He felt a small warmth heat his cheeks slightly, but ignored it. Suddenly, Suigetsu's loud snoring didn't seem so loud anymore. The Thunder didn't seem to threatening either. With one arm around the Kajiki's body, he closed his eyes and finally went to sleep.
In these ever-changing days,
You're the one thing that remains.
