Rin looked around the house but wasn't able to find him. It was dark when she finally decided to retreat to the room. She sat on the bed, feeling kind of glad that they were supposed to sleep in the same bed. She laid on the bed and hugged the blanket, blushing. "Tobi's scent." She felt infatuated with him.
She was remembering how they first met and how glad she felt that they were roommates.
-Tomorrows Christmas day.- she thought and smiled at herself . –I hope Tobi will like his present.-
Nearby she noticed one of Tobis cloaks. It was a black long one with red clouds on it; it was laying on the chair. Tobi had many cloacks his favorites were a purple one and a dark blue one and sometimes he even used different masks. She sat up and reached for it.
-It's fine..right? I'm just …checking if it needs to be washed.- She said as she tried to justify it.
Tobi was on the other side of the door and had it half opened.
-W-what is she doing?- he wondered, blushing. –Why is reaching for my cloak?- he watched as she was reaching for it with an infatuated expression on her face.
Rin froze, feeling someone was watching her. Obito noticed and debated with himself whether he should try to hide or just present himself. He quickly hid since he felt that this was a bad moment to appear. Rin quickly looked at the door. It was closed and there seemed to be no one around.
-Maybe I'm imagining things.- she thought blushing. She reached for the coat and took it back to bed. The lights were off and one could barely see. Tobi was in the corner of the room with a clear view of what was happening and well hidden. He quietly tried to conceal his surprise. He felt a bit guilty. –Maybe she wanted some comfort because of what happened to Anko…and I wasn't here.- He noted how she seemed very kind but didn't have very many friends. He approached her and revealed his presence.
"Rin." He said. Rin froze. She was in the middle of cuddling with his coat. Her face turned completely red.
"…."
"…."
The awkward tension increased as Rin refused to meet his eyes since she was embarrassed. Her heart was pounding wildly.
-W-what should I do?- She panicked. –What can I say that won't make him think I'm weird.-
"…."
-Should I maybe have not appeared? Well she is hugging..- his heart raced. –my coat. Would be kind of an awkward moment.-
Obito debated with himself what his best option was and his best option to lessen the awkward tension was to be Tobi.
"Ehhhh Rin? What're you doing with my coat? Did you want to cuddle? B-but Tobi san is here now!" He grabbed the coat and threw it away to the floor and hugged her tightly. "You can hold and smell me instead of the coat." He said cheerfully. Rin blushed. "I-I wasn't smelling it! I was just checking if it was dirty or something!"
-I'm pretty sure she was not.- He thought. "Well then Rin san it's okay! You should check me all over!"
"!?" Rin blushed surprised. Obito grinned. "Buuuuut you hafta be blind folded and promise not to try and peek."
Rin put her hands over his mask and looked him in the eye. His eyes seemed determined and honest.
-I wonder if he's worried about appearances?...or even identities.- She nodded. "I would like to get to know you better so I agree."
