Kakashi met her at her office door but before he could speak, Yua stormed past him and into her office. The nerve Tobirama had.
"Sato-san, have I caught you at a bad time?" A voice almost hissed out, not in anger, more like a lisp. She knew who it was immediately. She thought she had the night to herself, so far, she was wrong.
"Orochimaru-san, no one told me of your arrival. Please, what is it you wish to discuss?" She asked in a sweet voice as she gestured towards her desk. Orochimaru smirked and took a seat as she took hers behind her desk.
"Don't you look delightful this evening." He complimented her and smiled. But she knew the tone he was using was a hint. He didn't like her showing so much skin, even if it was solely for the bar. He felt women should cover up a little more, in public anyway. She was sure he didn't mind seeing more skin when he was at home. Then again, she couldn't remember a time when he had a woman. She had often suspected that he was in some sort of relationship with his second in command, Kabuto. Those two always seemed too close to comfort, not that she minded, as long as she didn't stubble across them. She had nothing against them, but if she saw anyone she knew, well, having anything close to sex, the thought made her gag.
"Thank you Orochimaru-san, is there anything I can help you with?" She pressed him. She was fed up of Madara and Tobirama's attempts to get to know her or at least get into her pants. It wasn't that she was a prude, she just didn't want to ruin her business because she slept with a client. She hoped Orochimaru wasn't going question her on her outfit choices, despite his tone. He always stuck his nose into her bar business.
"Oh, I just wanted to add to my order and seeing as I was passing by, I thought I'd just come in and tell you." He told and she smiled. Finally, someone who was only here for business.
"Certainly, it's always a pleasure to see you." She told him and he smirked once again.
"I have big plans and you have never disappointed me, my dear." Orochimaru started, Yua felt uneasy. It was never good when Orochimaru was planning something. "I would hate to see you caught in any of the cross fire." He added and Yua frowned.
"Orochimaru-san, what are you trying to warn me of?" She asked curiously. She hated it when he used cryptic messages.
"I will be taking over a family in another city, possibly the whole city, by force obviously. But I fear they may be gaining some friends here in high places." He informed her. "My concern is that, once I start the take over with your supplies, you may become a target." He added with his hand outstretched to touch hers.
"I have an understanding with the families I supply, mainly because I am the only supplier here now. No one can attack me and still expect to be supplied. If one person attacks, everyone is cut off until I find out who. That family will then lose all of their supplies. No one is stupid enough to do that, not even Madara." Yua explained.
"I know Sato-san, but I would hate to put you in that position. If anything does happen, you are more than welcome to come to me for help." He told her; she knew he was up to something more but she couldn't place her finger on it.
"Thank you for the offer, I will certainly think about if it does happen." Orochimaru smiled and handed her a piece of paper.
"This is my order. Please contact my assistant for payment." He told her and stood up. "I don't have time to stay much longer." Yua nodded and took the paper from him.
"Of course, Orochimaru-san. I hope to see you again soon."
"I hope I get to see you more often." He told her before he left. Yua smiled but as soon as the door was shut, she slumped back in the seat.
After a moment of annoyance, she completed Orochimaru's rather large order of automatic weapons and explosives. He was certainly planning to go to war.
Kakashi knocked on her door and entered once she called him in. He walked up to her and rubbed her shoulders. She leaned back and closed her eyes. She relaxed and allowed Kakashi to continue.
"Need any help tonight?" He whispered in her ear, making her smirk.
"What kind of help are you offering?" She asked, opening her eyes.
"I can ask Ino-san to come up. I know how much you like her company." He teased her.
"Oh, stop being perv!" She laughed. "I will not be a source of free porn for you." She added, still laughing. Kakashi smiled.
"At least I got you to laugh." He told her as he moved around her desk. "You know you need someone, a lover. It doesn't have to be a relationship." He added as he sat down.
"Why?" She asked with a huff.
"You're so sexually frustrated, I saw you thinking about fucking a complete stranger." Kakashi stressed. "How do you know if their clean? They could be a serial killer on the prowl. Just make an arrangement with someone you know is safe."
"It's not that simple. Strangers don't know who I am." She huffed, leaning forward. "Besides, when did you become my father and care about my sexual health? And I am more than capable of defending myself." She then asked, a little shocked by him. She knew Kakashi cared about her and her health but this was something new. It was the first time he had stuck his nose in like this.
"Why does it matter if they know you?" He asked confused. "Not many people don't know who you really are anyway. Unless they're idiots, do you really want to sleep with idiots." He then pointed out.
"I don't want to be used for a power grab or something along those lines." She told him with a huff. Kakashi understood, money and power ran the show, Yua certainly had both. "Anyone in the mob who was associated with me on a more friendly term would certainly be able to get more power and influence. I have a reputation to keep. If I sleep with the wrong person, I could lose everything." She added.
"Chose someone within your circle. Someone you trust." He told her with a sigh. "Or do you prefer girls and don't want to admit it?" He asked curiously. "I won't judge, there's nothing wrong with it." He reassured her.
"I have thought about it. But to be honest, who sleeps with their boss and doesn't expect more from it?" She sighed as she ran her fingers through her hair.
"Yua-sama, give someone a chance." Kakashi urged her.
"Who, who do you think I can trust?" She asked with her arms folded over her chest.
"You trust me, you trust all of your staff. The problem is allowing yourself to be vulnerable with someone else." He pointed out and Yua paused. She knew he was right. "Ino always flirts with you and you always flirt back." She blushed and shook her head. "Kiba has a thing for you. Or Sai..."
"Are going to start listing everyone?" She cut him off.
"You could have any of them, trust me."
"I'll think about it." She told him, waving him off. Kakashi took the hint and left the room.
Yua sat at her desk for a moment before getting up to go home.
