Chapter XI
Tails
Naruto felt cold but rested, the odd dream had left him feeling off. He looked around the unfamiliar room, all the colors seemed more defined and bold then they should have, even from the bed he could hear Kakashi out in the hall.
"I sent word to Tsunade-hime. I'm not sure what's going on with Naruto, but he shouldn't be here" Kakashi said,
his voice not even muffled by the distance and wall, He could hear a sigh then
"He's as much a part of this team as anyone" it was Sasuke.
~Foxy Break~
Naruto got up and walked to the bathroom, the sound of rushing water finally drowned out the sounds of talking. He quickly bathed and redressed, stretching, his tails reappeared and swayed lazily behind him, his ears flicking at every tiny sound. Releasing his ears and tails only caused a little pain, no more then a pinch. Naruto rubbed his now unmarred stomach, it seemed to be the weirdest part of his... transformation, the spirally ink had been there since he was a babe and now the seal was gone. The seal breaking released all his power, near limitless chakra, he'd heal in seconds. He looked closely at the wrists, his scars, his windows, were completely gone, not even a trace of faint pink.
~Blue Break~
Snow entered the hall Sasuke and Naruto were staying on, Sasuke had his voice raised to Kakashi, the anger on his face made Snow shiver, was something exciting happening? She brought the package closer to her chest, all the threads, silks, and colors had finally come together and the piece she held now was a master piece, her master piece. It seemed they'd be parting ways soon anyway, her time here was more limited then she thought, but at least she'd be able to stay for the festival tonight. Snow waved at the two
"Hey, is Naruto awake? I have a present for him." she said walking over.
Uncaring if she was interrupting something, Sasuke Hn'd and turned back to the door. Naruto put his ears and tails away, plopping on the bed just as the door opened, he could faintly smell sweet tomatoes and rain, nearly purring he looked at Sasuke with a bright smile. For a moment Sasuke's heart fluttered, it was very un Uchiha and he would never admit it happened,
"she has something," he pointed at Snow
and turned his head to the window, he was still pissed at Kakashi. Snow quick set the package on the bed,
"Strip!" she demanded
both males spluttered, Sasuke's head whipped to them, was she serious?
Naruto looked extremely uncomfortable "um, I'd rather not"
Her eyes narrowed slightly as she handed him the package and turned around
"Just put that on, un!"
Naruto sighed but removed his shirt and pants, Sasuke was watching out of the very corner of his eye, he was not peeping, nope. Naruto looked at his stomach again, he felt very strange not having the markings, he just shrugged it off and opened the package. It was a beautiful silk Kimono, the very top a deep orange that faded into black, the bottom full of blue chrysanthemums, the obi was the same color as the flowers silhouettes of birds. He quickly put it on, the silk felt good against his skin
"I wanna tie the Obi, Un!"
Before Naruto could protest she had already turned around, Snow grabbed the obi from the package and motioned for him to turn around, she wrapped it around his waist pulling the obi back until it rested against his skin then tied it in an intricate box knot, Naruto blushed at how short the Kimono was, it was several inches up on his thighs, the creamy tan skin.
~Silky Break~
Snow smiled, it fits exactly how she hoped, showing just how beautiful the blond teen was, she pushed him back onto the bed in a sitting position and started combing his out control hair. She finally tamed his bangs after a ten minute struggle with his hair, she pulled out a small, blue, butterfly hair clip and pinned his bangs to frame his face.
Sasuke watched as Snow brushed Naruto's hair, the other looked prettier then any female he had ever met, even without makeup, he was a natural. Sasuke took a step forward, he wanted to do nothing more then grab his blond and hold him, Sasuke wasn't sure when he had moved to stand in front of the smaller teen, or when he had cupped Naruto's cheek. What he did know was nothing had ever felt this right, the warmth in Naruto's cheeks or the blush that graced them, leaning down Sasuke slowly pressed his lips against Naruto's, in a gentle and sweet kiss. Naruto's eyes fluttered shut, leaning into Sasuke's kiss.
