A World Over
Raiden shook his head. "If you say so." Sarai sighed slightly. She had always had a ladder by her bed, just in case she ever got hurt. She was glad that now it was coming in handy. She wouldn't have to have Raiden's help to get up onto her own bed. That, she knew, she wouldn't be able to handle with the way her heart was acting. Remember, you have to remember. Stay inside of the family. He's your best friend and now teammate. You can't like him! Sarai yelled at herself inside her head.
Sarai managed to get up the small ladder to her bed and was sitting on it before she saw that Raiden was leaning on the side of the door frame, snoring lightly. She wouldn't have been able to tell he was asleep any other way. Being as he had the glasses like his father, Shino, has. Raiden had spent, she knew, the whole day making sure she was alright. She knew he needed his rest as much as she did. She climbed back down the ladder with a blanket and walked over to him. She made sure that she didn't trip. She would probably have to go and see Sakura in the morning. She wanted to get back out there with her team as soon as she could. Sarai didn't want to think about having to spend weeks in the same house with her mother.
Sarai laid the blanket on the floor and helped Raiden's sleeping form to the ground. She took of his glasses and covered him up with the covers. She smiled slightly, though mainly to herself. He looks so cute when he's sleeping..Wait what am I thinking. Stop thinking it! Stop now. He's you best friend. Teammate. Stop thinking those thoughts! Sarai shook her head and walked back over to her bed. She climbed back up the four step ladder and laid down on top of the covers. She knew she would have been able to get them up even if she tried with hurting herself.
Sarai didn't bother trying to stay awake. There really was no need. She closed her eyes, though the right one could never be seen anyway.
Raiden woke up around five in the morning. A little over two hours since he fell asleep. His eyes widdened slightly when he saw the blanket over top of him. He smiled slightly, stood, and walked over to Sarai's sleeping form. He threw the cover over top of his teammate and sat down on the floor. He'd wait till she woke up before he asked his own questions.
Hinata opened the door a few hours later. She smiled slightly to herself when she saw Raiden sleeping on the floor next to Sarai's bed.
"Maybe..she'll be the one to break the code..." She said lowly, trying not to wake the two genins up. She walked back into the kitchen and started to make breakfast.
Sarai groaned slightly. She rolled over and winced. She opened her eyes as she rolled back over. That was a bad idea.. She felt the blanket over top of her and smiled slightly. She sat up as best she could. Her body was now sore from the hit, but it didn't hurt like it did yesterday. Raiden yawned as he opened his black eyes and looked up at the one that could be seen of Sarai's.
"Good morning. I see you slept well." Sarai laughed.
"It's not that funny. But thanks for the blanket last night. I didn't mean to fall asleep on you." Sarai shook her head.
"You needed the sleep too--" She was cut off as she was lifted into the air and her feet placed on the ground. "Geez,..thanks, Raiden.."
Raiden shook his head. "You're welcome. Even if you didn't want it." They both started laughing then. Sarai stood up straighter.
"Hey, Raiden-kun don't you have to go train with Kiba-sama and Nao-kun?" Raidne shook his head.
"Nope. I'm stuck babysitting you till Kiba-Sensei tell me I'm off the hook." Sarai narrowed her eyes and glared at him.
"I don't need babysitting." She said taking a step away from him and stumbling.
"Right...and you can walk fine by yourself." Sarai glared at him even more. Raiden shook his head and stepped back slightly. "Alright..sorry."
Both Raiden and Sarai started laughing again. Hinata walked down the hall, the smell of fresh cooked breakfast trailing behind her. She opened the door when she heard the laughing. She smiled at the sight of Raiden and Sarai.
"Alright, kids. Breakfast is ready." Sarai smiled as Raiden nodded his head. The three walked down the hall to the kitchen area where the food was waiting.
"You two go ahead and eat. I ate already." Sarai nodded her head slightly as she took a bite out of what looked like eggs that fell apart from whatever they were supposed to be. Raiden arched an eyebrow. Once Hinata left the room, he spoke.
"It looks distusting..but it tastes really good." Sarai laughed.
"I've learned not to look at the food till it's gone." This time it was Raiden who laughed.
"I can see why." Sarai and Raiden finished eating.
"I guess you have to go home to get new clothes, right?" Sarai asked though she didn't want Raiden to leave her alone with her mother.
"Nope. Nao's bringing me over some. The three of us will hang here till you're better." Sarai smiled.
"Good then...Before he gets here, I'm going to take a shower and change. And no...I don't need you help." Raiden laughed, but nodded his head.
"I'll be waiting out here." Sarai sighed slightly and walked back to her room. She made sure not to fall or trip on the way as she got new clothes out and a towel. She opened the door and stepped into the bathroom.
A/N: Alright. Once again I'm sorry for the late update. I got my history project in and had to finish something else for it. sigh Okay..well that's over. I also have a two page report to write soon, but I hope to get part ten and eleven up tomorrow and the day after to make up for the late update. Also...I'm writing this as the characters want it, so if you have any ideas, I can try to put them in the story if they like them!
Disclaimer: If I owned Naruto I won't be sitting at my computer writing this.
