Hey ppl! It's 12 a.m. and I was on the computer and thought I'd write another chapter. I'm gonna make this one short…hopefully it will be short. Anyway I started to put sneak peeks on my blog on myspace. Remember u need to become my friend in order to view them. Anyway, let's get this thing started.
Disclaimer: Do we have to go over this again?! I DON'T OWN NARUTO!! Except for Jomei. He's mine.
Chapter 7: Surprise!
Yeah. I heard. So what? You gonna tell Lady Tsunade?" I asked in a kiddish voice. Silence. I sighed. "Sorry. I'm just still upset about Genma leaving and that whole stabilizer crap. I'm just gonna go home and think this all over. See ya later," I said as I turned around and bumped into something that wasn't there before.
I looked up and saw Genma!
"Omigosh! Genma where did you go? I was so worried!" I said as I gave him a big hug.
"Gee thanks it's nice to see you too," replied Genma
"Hehe, sorry. But seriously, where have you been?"
"Well the meeting with Lady Tsunade was about me moving out. She wanted you to start living on your own so that you could get used to the feeling. Besides you're a Chuunin now. You should be able to take care of yourself. After all, I did teach you everything I know about good house keeping and cooking."
"I know. But it's so lonely without you. The apartment is so quiet. It feels so much bigger since you left and I don't like it."
"I'm sorry. I heard about your little rampage around the hokage's office. I guess I should have at least told you. How about I come by and make you my famous grilled cheese? You're friend could come too if he wants to." Remembering that Shino was there I turned to ask him.
"That's ok. I have a family dinner to go to tonight," said Shino.
"Oh well ok, see you in the afternoon," I said as I watched Shino walk away.
OoOoO
Just seeing her light up like that when she saw Genma made me feel somewhat good about myself. Good thing I ran into him yesterday and told him how upset she was.
I turned down her offer for lunch because I thought she would like to spend some quality time with her former guardian. For some reason I had a strange feeling inside of me whenever she was upset about something. I would normally ignore it but this time I didn't. I wanted to help her.
When I turned around I saw her laughing and hugging Genma like she hasn't seen him in years. To see her smile, to hear her laugh, it all made me feel warm inside. A feeling I haven't felt since my mother left me.
OoOoO
I was so happy to see Genma again. And to taste his grilled cheese was like heaven. Genma's grilled cheese didn't taste like your any ordinary grilled cheese. He added extra cheese to it and used a special kind of cheese. He still refuses to tell me his secret.
After eating Genma and I decided to sit down and talk for a while. It seemed like forever since we last sat down and talked. He talked about his upcoming mission which sounded really exciting. Apparently some kid was found from a clan that was killed and was raised in a different village but that village was at risk of being at war. The kid is supposedly an important person and needs to be taken to a safer village. So he's bringing him here to Konoha.
I didn't have much to say because, well, nothing happened except for when I told Neji off and rampaged through Lady Tsunade's office.
After a few hours of talking Genma had to go to his apartment and start packing for his mission.
As I watched Genma leave I felt a little upset but not as much as when I first found out he was gone. Let's just say I didn't go running through the house screaming 'He's gone!! Waaaaah!! Kami, why did he have to leave?!'
About an hour after Genma left I realized that I said some harsh things to Lee when he wasn't even the one I was mad at. I decided to go find him and apologize. I hoped that Neji wasn't there. If he was then I'd probably have to wait until tomorrow to say sorry to Lee.
When I arrived at the first place I figured Lee would be (the training grounds) I noticed that someone was lying on the ground and it wasn't Lee. Trust me, you could spot his green spandex outfit a mile away.
I walked closer to the figure trying to make out who or what it was. When I was about 35 feet away I noticed that it was Neji sound asleep. He was lying on his side facing away from me. I could tell he was asleep because he would have sensed me by now.
When I got closer he shifted which made me jump and start to turn around to start running, but when I looked he was still asleep.
'Geez! That idiot is gonna catch a cold if he sleeps out here' I thought. I walked up to him and knelt down by him. Seeing his sleeping face made me blush. 'WAIT! What am I thinking?! I hate this guy! I should just leave while I can," I thought as I got up. I turned and took two steps when…
"What are you doing here?" It was Neji. He woke up. I quickly came up with another one of my little plans.
"Well, I thought that since I didn't get any training done today I might as well train now, but seeing as your still here I'll just leave to save the argument for later. Ja ne," I said as I kept walking.
When I looked at the corner of my eye to look at his reaction I didn't see anything. He was gone.
"Where do you plan on going?"
"WTF?!" was all I could manage to say since Neji scared the crap out of me by saying that 10 inches close to my face. "Why should you care? I'll go where ever I want."
"Tell me, you know what's going on, don't you?" he asked. Feeling upset I just continued walking, ignoring his question. Big mistake. He grabbed my arm and pushed me to the ground.
"What the hell's wrong with you?!" I screamed at him.
"I'm your teammate and your friend, yet you won't tell me what's going on with you!"
"A friend wouldn't push their friends to the ground and start yelling at them like you are!" I shouldn't have said that because he rose his hand and I prepared for a slap across my face. I shut my eyes and prepared for what will become a death match.
I kept them closed and when I thought about the time Neji would hit me has come, nothing happened. I opened my eye and saw that Shino had grabbed his hand and stopped him from slapping me.
"You're causing too much trouble out here. I think it's time for you to go home," said Shino as he released Neji's hand. Neji stood up straight and walked away. It shocked me to see that he didn't start a fight with Shino.
"Thanks. I guess if it weren't for these check-ups I would have been killing him by now," I said as I got up from the ground and brushed the loose grass off of me.
"Just make sure you don't lose control,"
I looked down remembering what really could have happened if Shino didn't show up. My nameless bloodline would appear and who knows what kind of condition Neji would be in. It scared me to think about these things.
Ok ppl that's it for today. Its 12:30 now and I'm tired and I still have to put the sneak peek up for Chapter 8. I hope you guys like it. Unfortunately it's longer than my last chapter. I was just so into it I kind of lost control. Sorry about that! Anyway please R&R!! I would really like to hear what you guys think of it. I haven't been getting any reviews and it makes me sad.
