The significant increase in pay had her bank account glowing. It was nearly three times more than what she would get from the cafe with just working there for two full weeks, and the first thing Rin wanted to do was go shopping. Nonetheless, it was too soon for that. She needed her money put away and only spent on the minimum, as always. She refused to tell her father about the new job - not because he would be angry about it. But because he would use it as a leverage for her to donate to Tobirama's campaign and spend more on the house. Her father had already started persisting in donating money to the man's campaign.

For the past seven weeks, her father had become a Tobirama Senju fanatic. At first, she brushed it aside in order to avoid any type of communication. But a couple of days ago, Danzo arrived home with anti-Madara Uchiha flyers. The flyers consisted of two pieces of content: one showed Madara's face with a red forbidden circle over it, and the second had 'The Uchihas bring nothing but corruption' over it. The flyers were neatly stacked on the living room, and that's when Rin knew that her father would never be OK with her dating Obito.

In addition, she worried about what Obito would think in regards to her father's anti-Uchiha judgements. Obito already disliked her father due to the old drunken man putting his hand on her. And while Rin knew that her feelings for Obito greatly excelled how she felt about her father, she still needed those two men on opposite sides of her life. Eventually, if all went as planned, she would move out of her crumbling home and in with a roommate. And if she couldn't find an affordable place with a roommate, she knew that Obito wouldn't hesitate in telling her to move in with him.

Staying over at his apartment right after work became a habit, to the point that sometimes she would walk there whenever he would leave work much later. She would wait inside the lobby of his building, reading over her medical books. It was during one incident in which the lobby had been closed that Rin had to wait outside in the pouring rain. Traffic was bad due to vehicle accidents, and he was over an hour late. Seeing her drenched from head to toe made him realize that it was time for her to have a key to his apartment. Nonetheless, Rin refused. To her, it was still too soon. Even though they were dating for over a month now, it didn't feel right for her to accept that extra key. But in the back of her mind, she knew that one day that extra key would come in handy. Her father's political movements were increasing for the worse, and she wanted nothing from it.

Next Day…

It was Sunday, which meant catching up with homework and resting. It wasn't until three weeks ago that her Sunday activities would take place in Obito's home, rather than hers. Her father started becoming more and more of a distraction. He would bang on her bedroom door, mostly drunk, for more money. She would hide the gifts Obito would give her before answering the door. He would limp inside, looking around.

"I need money! Tobirama needs it for his campaign!"

"I have none. I just paid the electric bill-"

"Then why don't you get a better job!"

She refused to answer as he had drunkenly stormed out. She had the money, as a matter of fact, but it would never be for him.

After telling Obito about it (without necessarily telling him about the Tobirama piece), he insisted on her staying at his place for the entire day on Sundays. She would sit on the floor of his living room with three large textbooks and her old laptop taking over the coffee table.

On those sundays, she would spend a good eight to nine hours in her books, followed by two to three making out with Obito. And week after week, things would get even more heated between them. While their clothes would mostly stay intact (sometimes, he would be shirtless...which she didn't mind at all…), touching started to play its course. He wouldn't touch her inappropriately, per se… but those trailing hands of his would sneak underneath her shirt and play with her sides, his fingers occasionally ghosting the side of her bra.

What did Anko tell her not too long ago about dating and sex? That after one month of being serious, it was good to go in terms of talking about sex...and then having it.

And so far, her and Obito have not had the sex talk yet. And thinking about it made Rin very nervous. She knew that Obito was experienced in that department, but her? While Rin wasn't dumb about what sex was (her dream is to become a doctor, of course), the idea of being so exposed to him intimidated her.

Which made her wonder if getting a two-piece bikini was a smart idea…

This Sunday, Rin wouldn't be studying at Obito's home. Instead, she would be spending the majority of the day with him and his family.

Madara Uchiha was hosting a family get-together in his yacht, and Obito was bringing her along. They were official now, and he was excited to finally introduce her to everyone else, especially Izumi.

So before Obito picked her up, Rin headed towards the department store to see what bathing suits they had in clearance. Oh, they had many on sale of course - all of them being two-piece. Rin had hoped for a one-piece, but they were double the price of what she wanted to pay. Eventually, she decided to buy the cheapest - a white two-piece. She would just wear a long t-shirt over it. It was one thing having Obito see her in that, it was another having his whole family officially meet her like that.

After purchasing the bikini, she rushed home to change. She wore the bikini underneath her black leggings and green t-shirt. And in case she needed extra clothes, she brought a small bag with undergarments and a dress.

Obito picked her up at ten in the morning, and they were by the dock in one hour. It was a very bright day, barely any clouds in the sky. It was perfect weather for sailing.

They exited the vehicle and walked over towards a large crowd, and Rin immediately recognized Shisui, Itachi, Sasuke, and Madara. There were two others with them - a dark haired female and a blond teenager, about the same age as Sasuke. Rin immediately assumed that the girl, who was maybe a year or two younger than her, was Izumi.

"They're finally here!" Shisui exclaimed, and all eyes turned towards them.

As soon as they reached the group, the younger female approached her. Rin was about to say hello, but the girl beat her to it as her arms went around her tightly.

"Finally, I get to meet you!"

For being younger than her, Izumi sure had a lot of strength and Rin giggled as she hugged the enthusiastic girl back.

"Nice to meet you too. My name's Rin-"

"Oh, we know who you are!" Izumi said before turning serious, "Obito did tell you who I was, right?"

The dark-haired male rolled his eyes as Rin giggled, "Yes, he did. You're Izumi,"

"Yes! We've heard so much about you, and it's great to finally be meeting you in person. I think you're familiar with everyone else,"

Rin nodded, re-introducing herself to Madara, Shisui, Sasuke, and Itachi. She looked at the blue-eyed, blond haired teen and raised an eyebrow. He didn't look like an Uchiha…

"Uzumaki Naruto!" the boy said, extending his hand out.

"Nice to meet you, Naruto," Rin said, shaking his head, "I'm Rin,"

The blonde kid, whose grin was from ear to ear, looked up at Obito, "She's pretty, big bro! Are you guys… together...together?"

"Of course they are, you idiot," Sasuke said in a monotone voice.

Naruto frowned at his friend, "How 'bout you mind your business, Sasuke?"

"What if I want to make it my business, Naruto?"

"Now now boys," Madara said with a smirk, grabbing both of them by the head, "You're scaring Rin. Behave before I call your parents,"

"Oh, it's OK," Rin said with a nervous giggle.

"They're always like this," Itachi added, "You'll get used to them,"

"How about we start sailing?" Shisui said, clapping his hands together.

The group walked onto the wooden dock and towards the end. Rin looked around, seeing other boats parked nearby. There were a few people on jet skis. As they reached the end, her eyes widened at the two-story large yacht. There was a set of small stairs which lead towards the front of the vessel. Rin's eyes studied the vessel upon getting on it. There were seats around, and a large jacuzzi right in the center. The back of the yacht led to an enclosed area, with two glass doors leading towards the inside. The second floor was shorter, and had the navigation system.

"Jacuzzi time!" Naruto yelled, taking off his shirt and jumping inside.

"Come," Izumi said, grabbing her arm gently, "We can go change inside,"

Rin nodded and followed her towards the restroom. The inside of the yacht had a large bar area with two pool tables on each side and a flat screen TV.

"Come, it has two stalls," Izumi said, and Rin nodded before walking inside, "Did you bring a bathing suit?"

"Yes, I'm wearing it underneath,"

"Cool! I need to put mine on," Izumi began to undress, and Rin looked away in order to give her some privacy. She didn't expect the girl to change in front of her like that...

Considering she would change in the locker room around other nurses, Rin sighed and took off her shoes, followed by her clothes. She folded them neatly and placed them inside her bag. She then looked at herself in the mirror and frowned. The two-piece fit her well - a bit too well.

"Wow, you look nice!" Izumi said. She was wearing a purple one-piece, a piece of cloth wrapped around her hips. Rin suddenly felt embarrassed, and severely underdressed.

"You think so? I...didn't realize that this would be so...revealing,"

"Oh, nonsense! It looks great! Obito's definitely going to like it,"

Oh, Rin knew that. But as much as she wanted to see his reaction, there would still be other men around, and she didn't feel comfortable wearing such a thing around them.

"Izumi, do you have a beach dress or swimsuit cover I can wear over this?"

Izumi gave her a warm smile before searching her purse. She pulled out a purple-colored loose beach dress.

"Thank you," Rin said, putting on the dress over the swimsuit.

The ladies exited the restroom and left their bags in one of the rooms before walking outside. There was a small vibration, followed by small movement. Rin figured that it was the yacht moving.

"I'll be upstairs," Izumi said, giving her a quick wave before heading up the stairs. Looking up, Rin could see why. Itachi was the one driving the yacht. Izumi stood next to him and without veering his eyes away from the water, Itachi wrapped an arm around her and kissed the top of her forehead. They were such a beautiful couple.

"Hey,"

Obito's hands were on her hips, shifting her until her back made contact with his bare chest. Rin turned around, her brown eyes quickly taking in his upper body before traveling down to his black-colored trunks.

"I've never seen your legs before," she giggled. They were like any other pair of men's hairy legs. Nonetheless, she noticed some scarring on his left one, and figured that it must've been due to his accident while overseas.

"And it's nice to see yours," he said in a low tone, grabbed her hand, "Come, let's sit by the front,"

The yacht started to move at a faster speed, and Rin held onto him tightly as she found it hard to balance. The movements of other boats nearby created waves, causing the yacht to have a synchronous up and down movement. They sat down towards the front of the yacht, his arm around her as she leaned against him.

The scenery was breath-taking. The bright sunlight made the water sparkle. Small trickles of water splashed on her face, and she enjoyed the feeling. She also enjoyed the feeling of the yacht navigating through the calm waters. She only wished that her mother could be here with them - to meet Obito and see the beauty of the waters.

"What are you thinking about?" Obito asked, lifting the arm around her in order to stroke her cheek with his thumb.

She leaned her face against the crook of his neck, "My mom… I wish she was here to see this. She would always talk about how she wished she could own a boat, and take us fishing. She didn't even like fish…" Her brown eyes then looked up at him, "I wish she was here to meet you as well…"

"I would love to meet the lady who made this beautiful woman sitting next to me," he whispered before kissing her. Rin wrapped an arm around him as he leaned closer to her, one of his hands trailing down her back before lingering around her bare thigh. Rin remembered that his family was around and tried to pull away, but Obito refused to let her go.

It wasn't until Rin felt water splashed over her that they separated. And with a red face, she looked up to see Naruto grinning with a large water gun in hand.

"C'mon big bro, we're here,"

Obito groaned before getting up. Rin looked around, observing the area around them. There was nothing but water around, a lot with a few yachts meters away.

Naruto, Sasuke, and Shisui descended down some stairs before jumping into the water. Madara grabbed a chair and sat nearby, reading an economics book. Itachi and Izumi, now that the teenage boys were elsewhere, got into the jacuzzi.

"Come," Obito said, grabbing her hand and leading her towards the corner of the yacht to where the stairs were. Rin, looking down, shook her head.

"Obito, no. I can't swim…"

"I'll hold onto you the whole time,"

She still shook her head, but he didn't pay attention. Obito took a few steps down before jumping inside. Seconds later, his head came out of the water and he looked up at her.

"Come down, Rin,"

"You'll have to take off the dress first!" Naruto yelled, and Obito slapped the back of his head. Sasuke laughed at the situation before his friend began to wrestle him.

Sighing, Rin removed the beach dress. The soft breeze made her shiver a bit, and she held onto the banister of the narrow stairs tightly. She mentally made sure that her bikini was intact before taking one step at a time towards the clear blue waters. Reaching the very last step, she gulped upon realizing that she would have to jump.

Obito raised his arms, "Jump, I'll catch you!"

"You're too far!" Rin said.

Obito smiled as he saw her nervous facial expression. She looked adorable, and that white bikini had him staring at her too long. His eyes stayed by her chest area before focusing on the pelvic area, and lower. The fact that she chose white was a test for him, and Obito wondered how long he would have before taking her to a corner and show her what she was doing to him.

"Are you going to catch me, or what!?"

Her voice broke his train of thought, and he nodded before swimming closer. She crouched on the last step, and Obito forced his eyes to be on her face and not on the area between her legs, covered by the thin piece of white fabric.

Rin counted to three before jumping, yelping as Obito caught her. Her legs paddled within the water as her arms hugged his neck tightly, making sure that she didn't sink. The act just made things worse for Obito, who was already trying to control an upcoming hardon, as her breasts brushed the side of his face. Grabbing her by the waist, he brought her down and allowed her to lean against him.

"Relax, I got you,"

Rin nodded while pushing her short hair behind her ears, watching as Naruto, Shisui, and Sasuke swam around.

"Come, let's go for a swim,"

"Wait, Obito-"

"It's OK, just hold on to me,"

He shifted her around so she stayed behind him, her arms still wrapped around his neck. He slowly swam them away from public view and towards the side of the yacht. With gentle movements, she moved her legs up and down within the water.

"I wish I knew how to swim,"

"It's a good skill to know. You never know when you need to use it,"

"Is it hard to learn?"

"Not necessarily. I learned when I was a kid, but there were many adults in the military who learned later in life,"

"Can you teach me?"

Obito nodded, helping her shift within the water. He held her arms while maintaining some distance.

"You will have to float first,"

"How?"

"Just lean back….like this,"

"W-Wait...what if I drown-"

"You won't. I'm here,"

He helped her lean back, one hand beneath her back and the other under her legs. Rin kept her eyes fixated on the sky, telling herself to keep calm. As a young kid, she imagined herself being able to swim while bathing. Her mother would fill the water high in order to give her that experience. She wished her mother was here to see her - to see what she's been accomplishing. Both in her professional and personal life.

"The sky is so nice today, right Obito?"

There was no answer, and Rin turned her head. Her eyes widened as she noticed that her boyfriend wasn't around. Panic swept through her body, causing her concentration to loosen and her arms to frantically move around. No longer on her back, she felt her body going downward. The water was suddenly around her neck, and Rin tried her best to lift her body upwards.

"O-Obito?"

He suddenly appeared in front of her, coming out of the water and holding onto her.

"I'm here," he said, moving her hair away from her face.

"Where were you?" there was a hint of annoyance in her voice, her thin eyebrows furrowed up at him.

"I was here the whole time, just underwater,"

She pressed her lips and looked away, "...I thought...you drowned...and I panicked…"

He pulled her closer, her back hitting his chest. "I'm sorry for scaring you… I wanted to make sure that you were able to do things on your own. And I saw how you were able to do that. I'm proud of you,"

The corner of her lips raised, and her mood lightened, "Thanks… Just, warn me next time…"

"Will do," he replied.

"Obito! Rin! Come play with us!" Naruto swam towards them, "We want to have swimming races. Loser has to hide Madara's clothes!"

"Oh, I can't swim," Rin said, with a shake of her head, "I rather watch...from the deck,"

Obito helped her get back onto the yacht before joining the others with their race.

Three to four hours later…

Aside from the two restrooms, pool table and other amenities, Madara's yacht had two small sized rooms. Each room had a sofa and mini-fridge. As everyone else continued to enjoy the sun, Obito and Rin occupied one of the rooms.

Despite the room being as small as hers back home, it was very elegant. The sofa was large, to the point that it could be used as a bed. Obito grabbed a drink from the minifridge as Rin sat with her legs folded underneath her.

"Here," he offered her, and she grabbed the can. It didn't surprise her that it was beer, but she drank the liquid anyway. She felt chills course through her body, a reaction due to her still very wet hair and cold liquid.

"I feel cold," she said, putting the drink aside.

"I can see that,"

She looked at her arms, seeing the small goosebumps forming. She then turned her head to him, frowning upon realizing that his eyes were elsewhere. Downward, to be more precise; and she followed its trail. She gasped upon realizing the perkiness of her nipples straining against the white cloth of her bikini top, and flicked his forehead.

"Stop staring, it's natural. I'm just cold,"

Obito chuckled, pulling her closer to him, "I can keep you warm,"

Her legs laid comfortably stretched over his thighs.

Rin poked his chest with a questioning look, "Hmm, I don't know… I don't think you have the ability to-OUCH! Obito, what are you doing- H-Hey,"

Her back was against the couch in a second, Obito crawling over her body before resting over it. His face was over hers, his hot breath tickling her. He kissed her gently, resting his arms over her head. His tongue darted inside the cavity of her mouth as soon as she relaxed underneath him and parted her lips. They kissed for another hot minute before separating.

"You've been torturing me today," he groaned, kissing and nibbling her neck.

"I have?" she asked, a little too innocent.

He moved lowered, kissing her chin before kissing the top of her chest. The hot pleasure pooled below her navel area, and Rin kept her eyes focused on the ceiling.

"Yes, you have," he replied, and Rin's back arched as his breath ghosted over her right breast.

The action prompted him to hold her waist, keeping her still with her legs on either side of him. He kissed the top of her breast, smirking as the hardness of her nipples became more obvious. In a daring move, he kissed over it, his tongue nudging against its firmness. Despite the bikini top being in the way, it triggered a response from her. Rin moaned in reaction, her head thrown back as her hands grabbed his hair. She continued to massage his head as Obito laid her back down before trailing his kisses down her stomach. Instead of moving lower, he crawled over her again and adjusted himself between her legs, his teeth nibbling her neck again. Her hands went from his head to rubbing his back, and she continued to moan. He started moving his hips against her, and Rin slowly opened her eyes as she felt hardness poke her right in her core. Despite the layer of his trunks and her bikini bottom, Rin could feel his hardness become more obvious.

"Obito, wait,"

"Hmmm?"

"I...not here,"

"The door's locked. Nobody will come in,"

"No, I meant…" It was hard for her to form a single thought process as her body desired what his body could offer. She was a twenty-two year old woman, and she had needs. They had remained dormant as she entered her womanhood; and now with Obito in her life, they were ready.

And even with her heart beating frantically, small moans escaping her lips, and wetness pooling in her southern region, Rin knew that today wasn't the day for her. She felt anxious just thinking about it, and her mouth blurted out the only (possibly) logical thing that could get his attention.

...And it did…

"Stop, I'm a virgin,"

Obito paused before lifting himself up, looking down at her with the corner of his lips raised. Rin furrowed her eyebrows.

"Why are you smiling?"

His shoulders shook as he chuckled, "You thought I didn't know that?"

"Wait… How?"

"Rin, it's very obvious that you've never had sex in your life,"

"Well...I had other things going on in life…" she pouted, sitting up and looking elsewhere.

Obito wrapped his arm around her, kissing her temple, "If you think that your inexperience is going to turn me away, think again,"

As a matter of fact, it made him want to bed her even more.

"It wasn't that," she said shyly, "It's just that...I...don't think I'm ready for it. And even if I was, I don't want to do it here...in your uncle's yacht. I hope you understand,"

"I do," he replied, twirling a strand of her hair with his finger, "And I should've realized that… I've been thinking about us having sex for some time,"

"I guess it's time we talk about it then…"

"Only if it makes you feel comfortable,"

"I'm comfortable talking about it. I'm just...a little anxious about doing it, that's all. What if...I'm bad?"

Obito snorted before pulling her onto his lap, leaning his forehead against her shoulder.

"And what leads you to think that?"

Her shoulders shrugged, "Well, considering that you dated someone before me… Konan. I mean, she's really beautiful. And...has a very nice body,"

Obito frowned, "Rin, why are you comparing yourself to her? She was just someone I was with in the past,"

"What if I can't...what if I'm not as good as her-"

"Stop," he said much louder as he narrowed his eyes towards her, and she flinched at the angriness in his tone. An image of her father flashed in her mind.

She slowly got off his lap and stood by the corner of the room, seeing him stand up and brush his hair back with his fingers. He cursed under his breath and turned to her, massaging his forehead as he opened his mouth to speak.

The knocking by the door interrupted it, and Rin couldn't be more grateful for it.

"Rin, Obito - we're home!"

"Coming!" Rin said, trying to keep her tone steady.

She unlocked the door and smiled as Izumi stood across from her.

"Well, you two have been in here for quite some time," the girl said with a wink, and Rin gave a slow nod.

"Y-Yeah… But we're coming out now," Rin said, watching as the yacht parked closer to the dock, "I'm ready to change back to my clothes,"

Without looking back, Rin followed the girl towards the restroom with her bag in hand.

As she changed out of the bikini and into warm clothes, she thought about Obito and his reaction. One could say that it was their first "fight", and she was hesitant to see him again.

"You OK?" Izumi asked, putting on a yellow sundress.

"Y-Yeah, sorry. Just thinking…"

"I can drive you home, if you want,"

"Oh, no that's OK! I can get myself hom-"

"Rin, it's OK. I can take you home,"

She opened her mouth to say something, but wasn't sure what to say. She felt awkward, but Izumi's reassuring smile eased some of that away.

"I don't know how to thank you,"

"Just...know that Obito really cares about you… He's… in love with you, Rin. He's a great guy, and what Konan did to him was unacceptable. I think deep down, he may resent her for that,"

Upon seeing Rin's horrified face, the girl apologized. "Sorry, I didn't mean to overhear. I was looking for you and..well...yeah…"

"It's OK," Rin said, feeling bad about even bringing Konan up. The woman was in the past.

"Let's take you home. Hmm, maybe we can go for some ice cream? Just you and me - no men allowed!"

"I would like that," Rin said, "Thank you, Izumi,"

They exited the restroom, watching as Madara walked around. As everyone else was dressed, the older man was still in his trunks, tank top and flip flops.

"Izumi, have you seen my clothes?" the man asked, rubbing the back of his head.

"Did you ask one of the teenagers to see where they went?"

Madara's face became serious as turned around, "Naruto…"
