Chapter 8

A Hug to Remember

"Ah!" thought Yumi. Sasuke held her tighter when she struggled. "What will happen if it happens? This is bad," thought Yumi as she struggled more. Sasuke frowned. Yumi then had to take actions. She kicked him of the bed. "What was that for!" yelled Sasuke as he rubbed his head. "You pervert!" yelled Yumi as she held her head. "What are you talking about?" he yelled as he glared. Yumi glared back and held her shirt. "You're still a pervert!" she yelled as she threw a pillow at Sasuke and dashed back to her room. "What is she talking about?" he thought as he yawned.

Yumi looked at herself in the mirror. "Darn!" she yelled. She had wolf ears popping out of her head. She started to scream in her pillow. "I hate boys!" she screamed. Kotori walked into the room. "You okay?" she asked as she rubbed her eyes. "Oh my," she giggled when she saw Yumi's ears. "Do you want you're head kicked off?" growled Yumi. Kotori froze. "Anyway, now I have to wait till tomorrow till these leave," she said as she stroked her ears. "Well, night," said Kotori as she left. Yumi sighed and looked at a calendar. "Eight more months," she thought.

Yumi walked down the hall of the academy to find Neji and Kiba. "What's up?" she asked. Kiba said hi and walked away. Neji seemed to stare at Yumi. "What? I thought my ears were gone this morning," she thought. Little did she know that Neji was glaring at Sasuke while Sasuke glared at Neji. Sasuke walked away. Neji then smirked and redirected his attention to Yumi. "I heard you're a good fighter, a villager of the sand," he said. "Yeah, I don't really have a squad so I have to train three times more," she said with a sigh. "Hey I heard you're good too and that-" Yumi was stopped as some fan-girls crowded Neji. "No wonder, he is cute," thought Yumi. Neji ignored them and cotinued to talk to Yumi. "I was wondering if you could train with me some time," asked Yumi as she smiled. Sasuke walked over to Yumi and grabbed her arm. "Let's go," he demanded as he glared at Neji. "Don't be stupid, I'm in the middle of a conversation!" she yelled as she hit Sasuke's shin. "Yeah, whatever," said Neji. "Good, bye," said Yumi. When Yumi and Sasuke were around a corner Sasuke grabbed Yumi. "Don't talk to Neji," he said demandingly. "Why, he's nice," said Yumi. "Just don't," said Sasuke. Yumi just walked away. "Pervert," she said. "What did I do?" thought Sasuke.
