Others Ch 11
I'm a little disappointed with the lack of reviews from last chapter… I'm kinda used to getting more than that. That won't keep me from updating but I'm just a little upset. Anywho… review time!
theoretical indecisive-ness: I don't really like him either but he seems like a decent-ish guy! :D I'm glad you like Nari and Santai; I've worked hard to make them funny, the comic relief of Others! They're going to show up a lot more…
Likes to Smile: woo-hoo! They're going to show up a lot more. They're two of my first reoccurring OCs. They're sweet guys and I like them!
Okay, yays or nays on Santai and Nari? If there's a few yays then they'll come back a lot more often!
"Aww dammit," The white haired guy, Hidan, groans as I watch Kakuzu run after Tobi. "They cut through my stomach again… That's going to be a b*tch to sew up…" I blink a few times.
"Don't you die if they cut through your stomach…?"
"Hell no, I'm immortal thanks to Jashin-sama," He grins. "Wanna convert, b*tch? He's always looking for another follower," His eyes glint a little and there's heavy, breathy breathing as two hands clap on my shoulders.
"She's *pant* not *pant* interested *pant, pant*" Kakuzu says.
He sounds like one of those creepers from the bad horror movies…
"You need to get into shape fat a$$," He says snickering a little. "Never going to be able to catch up if Kumori got kidnapped again… LIKE THIS!" He slings me on his back and starts running. Threads shoot out of Kakuzu's sleeve and he trips the Jashinist, catching me before I hit the ground.
"Easy" He says and I chuckle a little.
"I should get home…I bet Mom and Ryuu are worried," I say and Tobi comes running to glomp me. Kakuzu sends his threads up to block the glomp. I send him a smile and the boy is allowed to approach.
"Tobi's so sorry Kumori-chan!" He wails into my shoulder. "Tobi was a bad boy; Tobi let Kumori-chan get captured!"
That's my cue to go into cooing "it's okay!" mode. Always fun.
…line…line…line…line…
"Where were you?!" My mom asks, hands on her hips. I open my mouth to explain everything that happened but Kakuzu slips an arm around my waist.
"She was with me, Mrs. Hichi," His head is on my shoulder. "I'm sorry, I took her out after school and we lost track of time… Now I see where she gets her good looks from,"
"Oh, oh my," She turns slightly red. Kakuzu's good. She doesn't even question why I've been gone for almost three days… "I'm glad she finally found a good man to keep an eye on her,"
"Mom!" I blush hard. "He's just a friend!"
"Sure he is sweetie," She says and Kakuzu lets go of my so she can hug me. "He's a real cutie"
"MOM!" She winks and pulls away. "I'll let you two say good bye…alone!" She drags Ryuu out of the room who protests about his "daughter shouldn't be exposed to a teenaged boy's dirty ways!"
"Thanks for saving my a$$...again," I rub the back of my neck sheepishly. "I owe you," He smiles a little.
"It's no problem. It's kind of fun saving you,"
"Really?" My eyes sparkle.
"Yeah," He rubs one of the scars on his left arm gently. "I was wondering…wouldyouwanttogooutwithme?" He's blushing a little and looking away. "I-If you don't want to I totally get it,"
"I would actually really like to go out with you," I say blushing as well. He smiles and kisses me quickly.
"I'll see you tomorrow," I nod dizzily and stumble into the kitchen.
"So, how long have you two been dating~?" My mom asks pulling me into a chair. Two mugs of tea are across from each other and there's a plate of cookies between them. Girl talk. I groan softly.
"As of now? Two and a half minutes," I glance down at my watch.
"You just got asked out and I missed it?!" She wails dramatically as I sip my tea.
"Good tea, what kind is it?"
"You're hopeless," She grumbles biting into a cookie grouchily.

"What?"
"That's not a very nice way to greet your best friend!"
"I was sleeping, Sakura"
"You're heartless. ANYWAY, is it true?"
"Yes! Everything is true! I spent the last three days in wh*re camp and my new name is Lacy. I'm going to America to pursue my dream career of being Lacy the strip-"
"Not that, stupid. Is it true that you and Kakuzu the SENIOR are going out?!"
"…"
"Kumori?"
"I'll call you back. I have to go kill someone."
"Does that mean yes or n-"

"Kakuzu,"
"Don't you have caller ID?! That's no way to answer when your girlfriend calls,"
"Fine. Call me again."

"Kakuzu,"
"You're almost as hopeless as I am!"
"I know. That's why we're meant for each other,"
"…"
"…"
"You Imprinted on me?"
"Apparently,"
"…"
"…"
"So that means you won't break up with me for some stupid reason?"
"Let's hope not."
"Aww~ That's so sweet I- Hey! I'm supposed to be mad at you!"
"Why?"
"Don't sound so emotional. It's not becoming on you."
"Whoops. I'm sorry,"
"You better be. Ask me why I'm mad?"
"Why are you mad?"
"Some how Sakura found out that we were dating! We've only been going out for…seven hours,"
"I'm guessing Tobi saw you and told Hidan who told Kisame who told Itachi who brought it up at the dinner table and Sasuke, who didn't say anything until Sakura pried the information out of him in ways we shiver to think of, told Sakura."
"…"
"…"
"…"
"You still there?"
"Yeah, I just died a little,"
"You were thinking about it?"
"Uh-huh,"
"You really shouldn't,"
"I won't…Better call Sakura back and let her know the rumors are true or she'll hunt me down,"
"Okay, good night Kumori-chan,"
"Night Kuzu-kun,"
"I'll pick you up in the morning,"
"Okay…cool,"

"Took you long enough to call me back!"
"Yeah, yeah, yeah,"
"You're rolling your eyes,"
"Are you stalking me or something?"
"Yeah, I'm under your bed,"
"…"
"…"
"No you're not I just checked!"
"You're a loser,"
"…I know, but I'm a loser with a BOYFRIEND!"
"Sooooo, the rumors ARE true?!"
"Yup,"
"…That's it?"
"What do you mean?"
"Just 'yup'?! No long story about how you guys fell in love and are going to have a ba-jillion kids some day then grow old together like in the stories and songs?!"
"Go to bed Pinky. It's late. I'll tell you all about it tomorrow,"
"Is that a prom-"
