Tutoring for Dummies Ch 11
Wow… I've gotten over one hundred reviews for TFD… *shakes head smiling* Wow… you guys are the greatest! I-I'm flabbergasted. (Yes that is a very fun word to say. Go ahead. Try it.)
SnowsShadow: I kinda tend to leave my characters alone when I'm not around to write about them so she's probably been affected by her a little bit… Whoops! They're playing tag right now, and Kisame's it so he IS chasing her. XD
CS: I can't decide which I like better to be totally truthful! I ping pong between liking Hina/Naru and liking Hina/Kisa better. XP They're both good I guess… probably would make an interesting love triangle if I ever do something like this again…
Angel-of-Hell: ^^ If you're getting into the story, that means that I'm doing my job right! It really is cool to know that you care so much about the story, Angel-san!
Maiumaora: XD Spine-ling… that's an adorable word! She's really trying her hardest to not stutter and the such in front of Kisa-kun~ I always throw in Hidan when it gets too serious, for comic relief.
Emmeline Creazil: =OwO= Really~?
Likes to Smile: Pizza! Nom, nom, nom. I loved writing that part. =^^= In the screwed up world that I'm writing, it does exist and it does happen. XD I bounce back and forth between liking Naru/Saku and not but I guess it depends on the author. Neither have I… Those things are IMPOSSIBLE! ." I like it when I win, though~
jenniebennie: That chapter was totally DROWNING in fluff. I'm surprised my readers can still write reviews that was so horribly fluff. Both very good questions that shall get answered in this chapter!
lillee-of-the-vallee: Me too! I feel bad for the hard-core Naruto fans 'cause I kinda made him a heartless jerk but still! XD
xm: I have a lot of free time now that summer break's started. XD And it's fine, I get it that people get busy and all that lovely stuff. That's life! Yes~ Them going out makes for lovely fluff. 3
kikyokyoyahibari: Probably (haven't decided yet if they're going to get married in the epilogue :x) Quite possibly she was/is jealous. Yes they're going out. A bad reaction is in store. XD You'll have to wait and see for that one. I write a lot of romance stories 'cause I have no love life. XDD
FlowerOfTheNight544: *nod, nod* Right! I really like you, Flower-san! You seem smart~ XD Really? I like it when people go 'aw'! Kya~ I can't resist the eyes! *flops down and starts to type*
Emmeline Creazil: I'm going to miss all my amazing reviewers once this story is over! DX
Chibi Angel of the Uchiha: Yeah! Thank Kakuzu's Angel Konan for kicking my rear into gear to get me to write it! She's the one who requested it and yes, I do take request fics. Or birthday oneshots. ^^
SnowsShadow: He's standing right behind me (breathing down my neck creepily I might add) and we're both happy that we're not the only ones that can't solve a Rubik's cube. XD
Okay! I'm going to be gone from the twenty-sixth to the twenty-ninth. So that means no updates for that long. I'm turning sixteen on the eighth so YAY! ^w^ Happy birthday to me… Happy birthday to me! Lol! If you have a birthday coming up, tell me and I'll make you a birthday oneshot! And yes, I do take request fics.
Monday was hell, for lack of better word. Kisame convinced me to let him take me to Tsunade-sama's office but there was a huge smirk on his face. I tried to ask him what it was but he just shook his head each time and smiled bigger.
"Tsunade-sama?" I ask hesitantly knocking on her door.
"Come in, Hinata," She says with a warm smile. I bow quickly and she waves it off before I can do it again. "We were informed that you were coming back."
"Yes ma'am," I say and she motions for us to sit. "I am so sorry that I left Konoha Boarding,"
"Everything is forgiven," She says gently patting my leg as Kisame snakes his arm around my shoulders. "But I am regretful to inform you that the scholarship has been given to another student."
"Oh," My heart sinks because I know that my family doesn't have enough money to send me here.
"Ahem," Kisame smiles a little, pulling a check out of his pocket. I can just barely read the writing but I can make out "Hyuuga Hinata" and a lot of zeros. "I believe that this might be able to cover it," I turn dark red and try hard not to let my jaw drop.
"What is this?" She asks reaching out and taking the check.
"My father has offered to pay for her scholarship." He says with a toothy grin. "He says he's happy to pay for any expenses that might come up."
"T-This is way too much, even for her three years of room and board and schooling," She says, flabbergasted.
"Make a donation with the extra money in her name," A deep voice says from behind us and Kisame darts out of his chair to stand up.
"S-Sir, I didn't know you were going to be here," He stutters and the man waves him off.
"Sit down, son." He says with a warm smile. "Don't look so nervous, I'm here to meet your adorable girlfriend," He turns to me, the warm smiling growing a little.
"You must be Hinata-hime! It's a pleasure to meet you," He gushes and I turn dark red.
"N-Nice to meet you too, Hoshigaki-sama," I get up and start to bow but he waves that off too. I can see the resemblance between him and Kisame. They both have the same skin and hair but his features are a little sharper, more animated.
"Please, call me Daisuke," He says and I smile at him.
"Okay,"
"Well, Hinata-hime, my wife and I are very, very happy that you have fallen for our Kisame," He claps me on the back and smiles again before moving over to Tsunade, starting to talk to her about my time here at Konoha.
"Looks like Dad approves," Kisame says slipping his arm around my shoulders and pulling me closer, turning me bright red.
"He seems nice," I say, pushing my fingers together.
"He is, most of the time," He agrees with a smile. "C'mon, let's get back to class." He plants a chaste kiss on the side of my temple and I go as red as a tomato before nodding. His hand finds mine and as soon as we step out into the hallway, fangirls are mobbing us.
"K-Kisame-kun," One says tearfully by his shoulder. "H-How could you d-do this to us? We love you!" He turns his back, obviously putting in the fake tears he'd brought with him just incase this started to happen.
"I… I wish I could be with each and every one of you, but Hinata-chan is the one for me. Please forgive me," He sheds a single tear beautifully and I can almost feel myself being choked up. He looks away and the fangirls "KYAAAAAA" before falling away dramatically.
"What was that?" I ask as he rubs the water out of his eyes with a small smile.
"Works every time. A few fake tears and they're charmed," He says and grins sheepishly before we get to class. "Thankfully I don't have to do that for you," I smile and get on tiptoes, pecking his cheek.
"I really like you, Kisame-kun," I say feeling my face cool down a little. My phone vibrates in my pocket and I see Naruto's number pop up on the screen (I'd deleted it out of anger after he 'cheated'… I loved him and I'm pretty sure he knew it.) I delete the text without even looking at it and smile as I take my seat. Something swells in my chest and I frown for a split second before I realize what it is.
It's something I haven't (really) felt in a long, long time.
Pure, unbridled happiness. I look over at Kisame, the sun shining through an open window and hitting his face. He looks so beautiful it takes my breath away. His elbow is resting on his desk and his hand is cupping his chin as he looks out thoughtfully on the school grounds. My heart swells with love for him and I have to pry my eyes away from him before he catches me staring.
I look over towards the door and see Hidan and Kakuzu coming in, bickering lightly, as the rest of the Akatsuki filter in. I smile a little, looking down at my hands in my lap, my fingers twitching in an urge to press themselves against each other. Happily, I am able to resist it.
My friends, I realize that's what the Akatsuki are with another heart swell. Closing my eyes, I wait for sensei to come in, perfectly and utterly happy.
