I feel someone lightly tapping my cheeks I try to swat the object away but they grab my wrist and hold it gently " Nozomi.. Wake up." I hear a familiar voice say

My eyelids flutter and finally slowly open my vision swimming momentarily until I am able to finally focus on the people in front of me the man and woman are next to me and I can feel my heart leap into my throat when I see the mans scowl.

I slowly sit up and rub the back of my head which is sore from my skull smacking the ground, tobirama holds out a hand and helps me up

The man steps forward and folds his arms across his chest, "if you really are our Nozomi.. You would have an identical necklace to your mothers" he says in a powerful voice pointing at the woman's neck I gasp when I see a larger version of the diamond necklace around my throat.

I reach down to my own neck and pull the small diamond out and look back up to face him I see his eyes widen in shock.

He walks forward and pulls me into a bear hug "my precious girl" he says

I feel fresh tears spring to my eyes as I hug him back "dad.." I say in almost a whisper

Tobirama watches as she speaks with her mother and father he folds his arms across his chest and sighs happy that she had found her clan and parents, what was about to be said next was something he was not expecting and apparently neither was she.

"My dear daughter has returned to us at last!" the man now known as takahiro says cheerfully

People cheer and clap as I look from side to side one woman comes up to me and clasps my hands in her's "Welcome home Princess!" she says happily

I furrow my eyebrows "Princess?" I say confused she nods and my mother steps forward

"yes dear, you are the heiress to this clan" she says

I slowly start to nod and then everything becomes shaky once again and before I know it I hit the ground once more.

When I finally do wake up I find that I'm in a tent under warm blankets I look around and bite my lip nervously " what the hell happened?..." I muse as I grab a blanket and wrap it tightly around my shoulders.

I walk out and notice it had gotten rather dark out I look around and grab a lantern hanging by the tent and make my way towards the center of the settlement noting the thick black smoke that fills the night air I make my way over to the fire where everyone including my comrades are sitting, I sit down next to tobirama and hold my hands out trying to warm my cold flesh against the fire.

"your finally awake" comes the monotonous voice beside me which makes me jump I give me a side ways glance and feel my heart thump when I see his red eyes staring at me.

I nod and wrap the blanket around me tighter "where are my mother and father?" I ask him

"their gone" comes the voice of madara uchiha

I poke my head out from around tobirama's side glancing at him "where did they go?" I say my irritation working its way into my speech.

"they will be back in a few days my lady" I hear a voice say I turn and see the girl from earlier that day

I nod and stand back up "I'm going to turn in for the night" they all nod and I head back to the tent I was staying in.

~later that night

I settle into the warmth of the soft bed I'm laying in pulling the covers up further on my arms and neck, I let out a content sigh and turn onto my side facing away from the tents entrance I lazily stretch out and lay there enjoying the silence, the entire settlement was silent and all to be heard was the running water from a near by stream and the soft chirp of crickets

I start to doze off until I feel someone climb into bed next to me I tense up as a arm snakes around my waist and I'm pulled against a strong chest. My heart hammers in my chest as I turn my head slightly catching the faint glow of white locks in the dim light, I sigh and turn over onto my back forcing him to scoot back a bit I peer up at tobirama who just stares back at me.

" what are you doing here Tobi?" I whisper to him

I feel his fingers trail across the exposed flesh of my stomach tracing along the bone of my ribs making me shudder under his touch, " I was worried about you.." He says in soft whisper

II feel a smile tug at the corners of my mouth, I scoot a bit closer to him but don't touch him worried it might be unwelcomed, " why were you worried about me?" I ask him to which he gives me a look that sends me into a fit of giggles

"Do you really have to ask me that?" He says

I smirk " isn't it like, against the rules for a sensei to be this worried or close to his student?" I ask him noting his bare chest is pressed against me

I see his usually stoic face betray him once again and a wicked smirk plays on his lips, he grabs my right hip and pulls me closer to him closing the gap between our bodies I place my hands on his chest and run them across the pale flesh tracing my fingers across the faint scars from battles long ago

I hear his breath hitch for a moment as he grabs my hip tighter " Now is not the time for this to be happening..." He murmmers softly trailing his pale fingers down the skin on my right arm I bite my lip " now when we get back to the village if you so choose.. That is a different story.." He finishes with a smirk I can swear those red eyes flash with a glint of lust.

He knew they couldn't be this close especially in unfamiliar territory where an attack would be easy given their vulnerable position right now, but for some reason weather it be lust or something mor he couldn't explain he couldn't shake the strong urge to take her right there, the way she stared up at him in the dim light only highlighted her natural beauty and it was making his mind race, since the first day he began training her it had been there although he may not have seen it then the more time he spent with her the more he gradually developed feelings for her and her well being not to mention the way she said his name had been driving him crazy since the first day.. The way her lips formed the syllables of his name and the glint in her eyes whenever he came a little to close to her, he growled under his breath as he felt the heat pulse throoguh his veins.

I notice he trails off and apparently is deep in thought and for once I can actually take in his full appearance the smooth white skin of his face the shaggy white hair which brushes softly against his forehead and those eyes.. In the past five months i had gotten so use to seeing those beautiful crimson eyes.. I blush and look away before he can notice me staring at him.

I stand up and stretch my back bidding it to crack and hear a hmm from behind me I glance over my shoulder and smirk " is there something wrong? Senju-san? " he doesn't answer me but instead sits up and grabs my waist pulling me down into his lap I let out a small squeak when I feel something hard poke me, which makes him let out a soft groan his grip tightens around my waist and I place my hands on his arms.

My heart is pounding as he pushes my hair to the left side of my neck his cool breath tickling the flesh of my neck sending shivers through my body I arch my back when he bites down on the crook of my neck " remember sensei...I'm your student" I say with a sharp intake of air as he bites the back of my shoulder

He puts his chin on my right shoulder and whispers " who says you just have to be my student... Nozomi?" I feel myself blush a deep red at his words. I shudder again as his cool breath to tickles the hair on my neck, he releases me and I stand back up and turn to face him not daring to look down any further then his chest nervous at what I might see he sheepishly peers up at me and licks his lips.

I shake my head and laugh quietly, "let's get some sleep Nozomi.." He says laying back down patting the bed beside him I nervously get in and pull the blankets up around my body, he looks over and laughs which is unusual for him..

"I don't bite nozomi" he says softly I laugh again and scoot closer to him settling into the curves of his arms listening to the steady beat of his heart until I finally doze off.

~elsewhere..

Little did either of us know a certain uchiha had been listening to our entire encounter and conversation madara balls his fists who the hell did that senju brat think he was being that close to his woman.. he shakes his head dark locks flapping in the cool night wind he closes his eyes for a moment and when he opens them back up the sharingan is vividly displayed. if that brat thinks he's going to take what is mine then he's sadly mistaken. Hell will freeze over first before I let that bastard take her. he says to himself madara settles onto a rock and closes his eyes again before finally drifting off to sleep scheming on just how he would get his plans set into motion.
