Chapter 7

The next day at 7 p.m., Mayu checked herself over and over to make sure looked presentable as she waited for Kakashi.

'What am I doing?' she wondered. She didn't worry about her appearance back when she was dating a ninja from her village. Of course, she knew that was because she really wasn't in love with him. But that was only one of the reasons she had to break off with him.

'What am I thinking? It's not like Kakashi and I going steady. Besides I'm gonna be leaving soon. I can't get too attached to anyone or fall in love…'

Mayu checked her portable alarm clock. It was 7:05. 'If he doesn't hurry up, we're gonna miss the movie.' She knew that Kakashi was going to be late, but she couldn't help but feel annoyed. Just then Kakashi finally showed up.

"You're late." Mayu told him in an annoyed tone.

"Sorry, but a black cat crossed my path, so I had to take the long way."

'Wait, didn't I already use that one before?' thought Kakashi.

Mayu just rolled her eyes at his excuse.

"Let's just go." she said. So then they walked to the theater in silence.

When they arrived at the movie theater, Mayu asked Kakashi, "How much do they charge for a ticket here?"

"Don't worry about it. I'll pay for both our tickets." he told her.

"Thanks.", she said.

"You can pay for the popcorn."

"Fair enough."

The previews were almost over by the time they got into the theater and found some good seats.

"See, aren't you glad I was late. Now we don't have to sit through the previews." Kakashi said.

"Well, at least one good thing came of you being late." said Mayu.

They were silent through out the movie. Mayu was so focused on the movie; she didn't notice that Kakashi removed his mask few times to eat some popcorn.

After the movie ended, they were laughing and talking about the movie as the walked out of the theater. But as they walked through the village together, Mayu had a feeling that something wasn't right.

"Hey, do you feel like we're being watched?" she asked.

"Yeah.", said Kakashi. They looked around and noticed that a few people were staring at them. They figured that's what the "being watched" feeling was coming from.

'It's like they never seen a guy and girl walk together before.' thought Mayu.

'Is it because she's from another village?' thought Kakashi.

"Um…do you want me walk you back?" he asked Mayu.

"That's okay, I can get back on my own." she said. So then they went separate ways.

'Well, that was more awkward then fun.' thought Kakashi.

'Now that that's over,' thought Mayu. 'I can finally get ready to leave.'
