Chapter Three: Emotions Part Two

Valentin awoke from a gentle push, and soft hands that retained heat. "What time is it?" he asked leaning up with bleary eyes. "It's about 7:00 AM. We decided since you had first watch you could sleep longer." He nodded a thank and packed his bag up. Ten minutes later he was packed and ready. "Let's go find a village, I'm starving," Koneko said with a low growl escaping her stomach. "Yea, let's," Kakashi and Valentin said at the same time." Koneko giggled and began leading the way. "Val-kun, could you buy me some cookies when we get there?" she asked with innocence in her eyes. He just smiled at her. "We'll have to see if they have any first." She giggled, and took hold of Valentin's right arm making him blush a deep red wishing he had his mask on right now. Kakashi smiled his usual smile and went on ahead. "I'll scout out, just keep walking," he told Valentin before he left. He just shrugged. He knew why Kakashi was leaving him alone with Koneko. She is too beautiful for me, yet she doesn't mind the usual flirting going on. He sighed and kept himself silent. I just can't tell her yet. Then he had a flashback to the first kiss they had. Okay so that was our first date, doesn't mean we will have it again... I wonder if she feels the same towards me...probably not... He didn't get to finish his thoughts when he realized that Koneko was screaming. Turning towards the loud scream, he saw Koneko being taken away by two people; probably bandits or rogue ninjas. "Koneko-chan!" Valentin yelled out, chasing them down. Using a body relocation technique, he placed himself in front of the kidnappers. "Let her go." One of them held a kunai in front of her throat. "Take a step closer and she dies," he snickered evilly while licking her neck. Valentin clenched his fist and thought of a plan. Where's Kakashi-san? If he was here we could've flanked them. He shrugged and tried a bluff. "You know, you can go ahead and try it, I could care less." I hope it works, I'm already regretting this plan. Hoping that Koneko was also realizing his plan, she starts cursing at Valentin. "I hate you!" she screamed and tried kicking. She winked at him, as the rogues couldn't see her face. He sighed in relief. She knows the plan, well. Now to outsmart them. The rogue smiled evilly catching his bluff and the acting. "So you won't mind if we… Have our way with her right now?" he chuckled evilly sliding his hand down her stomach, and she shuddered. Once his fingertips reached for the clasp of her pants, Valentin took the moment to flash behind the other rogue and performed a spinning axe kick, and spun horizontally and performed a roundhouse to trip the rogue holding her. He tripped and landed on his back out of breath, while he caught Koneko bridal style in her arms. "I'm sorry for doing that to you Koneko-chan. Will you forgive me?" he told her worriedly. She put a hand on his right cheek. "Of course, I knew you wouldn't let it happen to me!" she giggled, and he let her down on the ground with a soft tap. "Excuse me for a moment," he smiled and put his index finger up indicating one minute. He cracked his knuckles and walked towards the rogues. "They're in a lot of trouble now," he smiled evilly. Picking up the one that wanted to rape her. "You're first," he sung out and turned to the girl. "Koneko-chan, go find Kakashi-san. I'll be here for a while." She giggled again, bid him goodbye and trotted off.

Valentin coughed, and wiped his hands clean of the blood. "Now, you won't do that again, will you?" he asked the two unconscious bodies that were slowly bleeding to death. "I don't think you'll be able to move again after this but it is the only way to pay you back for an incomplete kidnapping," he chuckled and walked away to the point where he had told both Koneko and Kakashi to meet up.

Half an hour later, he found the spot, and saw both of them sitting patiently. "Val-kun!" Koneko giggled and glomped him. "Hi, Koneko-chan." She gasped and ran a finger on his left cheek. "You got blood on your cheek. Is it yours?" she asked questioningly. He coughed and sat up. "Pft, no. Anyways, I had to do something to them since they were trying to kidnap you - and rape you!" he smiled at their futile attempts to actually hurt him. "I don't think they will try that stunt to anyone ever again," she giggled, and kissed him on the lips. Valentin was blushing a very deep red again. "What was that for?" he said in a whisper. She smiled. "You saved me," she just said, giggled again and stood up, walking towards the path. "Let's goo!" she yelled out with so much energy, then her stomach growled, and she frowned. It ended up having Valentin carrying Koneko to the village because she was too hungry to walk. Though he didn't mind it at all, and he enjoyed the conversation with her as they walked.


Once inside the restaurant and Koneko was sitting down on one of the seats of a table, Kakashi took a seat of his own and Valentin took a seat next to Koneko. "This isn't a ramen stand!" she turned and huffed. "Koneko-chan. It's time we all have some real food..." She turned around with sad eyes. "Is there ramen here?" she asked quietly. "Yes, but there's less fat in these ones," he smiled, making her giggle. "Yay!" she said with enthusiasm. "I just want you to eat something healthy," he said with a sigh. "The miso ramen here has less fat than Ichiraku, but its still good." She giggled and slid closer to him, making Valentin blush a deep crimson. "What? Nervous?" she whispered into Valentin's ear, making him even redder. "N-no!" She giggled. "You're acting like you are." Valentin huffed. "Well…Well…" he never finished his sentence.

The waitress then came by and took their orders. They all ordered the same thing and Valentin ordered some tea to just make it an easy night. "So, Kakashi-san, where were you when the rogues tried kidnapping Koneko-chan?" he asked raising a brow waiting for his answer. Koneko giggled. "Kakashi was probably pleasuring himself!" keeping it down so Kakashi couldn't be embarrassed. He puffed his chest out. " Iruka is my little uke!" He claimed and began eating his ramen in silence, while Koneko and Valentin were drinking tea together. When they were done they looked at Kakashi's sad self. "Do you miss Iruka Kakashi-san?" He sighed and nodded. "I wish he wasn't busy with the academy. He could've came with us." Koneko and Valentin both pat him on the shoulder. "Don't worry Kakashi-san! We will be back before you know it!" Kakashi smiled. "Heh. Thanks. You're right though, we'll be back soon…" he sighed and wandered off to the bathroom. Koneko leaned in next to Valentin and rested her head on his shoulder. "I really wish we could drink sake." Valentin just smiled. "We're underage." She sighed. "You have to bring that up?" He shrugged. "Kakashi-san doesn't have his I.D, so we can't ask him for it," he said while petting her on the top of her head. She giggled. "Maybe Naru-chan will buy us some for bringing Sasuke back!" He smiled. "Yea, maybe that little teme will make Naruto-kun happy..." he shrugged and leaned backwards in his seat. Kakashi came back few minutes later, and Koneko and Valentin were resuming their drinking of tea. "Sorry, bladder was full," he sighed. Valentin looked up to him. "Kakashi-san, you're done?" he asked, and turned to Koneko. "How about you, Koneko-chan?" she giggled and nodded, and Kakashi did in return. "I'll pay them up front, meet me outside." They nodded, and Valentin went up to the cashiers register, and the two went outside.

Two minutes later he came outside. It was about 4 hours past noon. Kakashi and Koneko walked up to him. "Ready to go?" he asked them both, and they nodded. "M'kay, we're a few hours from Otogakure," he said, and Koneko smiled. "We're almost to Sasuke-kun!" Kakashi smiled. "The faster we get there, the faster we get back!" Kakashi started forward. Koneko and Valentin hung in the back. "Was that fun, Koneko-chan?" he asked curiously. She giggled. "Of course! Everything is fun when you're around..." she hummed and kissed his cheek, quickly skipping away to catch up with Kakashi. Valentin had a very deep blush on his cheeks and came to his senses. She takes it all in stride as if she isn't afraid of the outcomes. Aren't you afraid Koneko-chan? He left that question in wander, not wanting to make her portrait her fear - if she was.

"Koneko-chan!" Valentin yelled, as he ran to catch up with them. She stopped and giggled. "What is it?" she asked him. "I bought you some cookies, before I left the restaurant she squealed and gave him a tight hug. "Can't… Breath…!" he said choking his words out. She smiled. "Thank you, Val-kun!" she said happily.
