The two of us just sat there beneath the tree for hours. Lord Tobirama kept his arms wrapped around me the entire time, lending me strength.
To say I was shocked would be an understatement. Lord Tobirama, from what I have observed the last two months, and from what I was taught in the academy, is not one that shows much emotion if any. So when he pulled me into his chest while I was crying, I ended up crying even more. So embarrassing! His kindness to me, even though I am a complete stranger to him, was what made me realize that I could have landed in a worse time period. Granted, Madara is still alive and plotting, but I landed where there are people I know that I can depend on.
Several days later I find myself working a shift in the hospital when I hear a commotion in the waiting area. Rushing out, I am surprised at the scene before me. Both Lord Hashirama and Lord Tobirama are standing in the lobby arguing.
"I am not going to heal you Tobirama. Neither you nor the Uchiha. I don't know why you still insist on holding hard feelings for them. But we have a treaty with them and they are members of this village as well. This is all I have to say on the matter. Do not let me find you attempting to pick a fight with them again. The same goes for you." Hashirama turned and addressed a man wearing the Uchiha symbol.
"Hai."
After Hashirama left, Tobirama turned and looked at me, "Would you?" Motioning to his stomach and chest where several slashes were.
"Of…of course. Right this way."
I lead him to an examination room and begin to gather the supplies I need to clean his wounds before healing them. "What happened Lord Tobirama? I have never seen Lord Hashirama refuse to heal anyone, let alone you, before."
Tobirama is quiet for a moment, "The Uchiha tried to pick a fight with me after a clan meeting. I retaliated and we both ended up injured. Although he is much worse off than I am."
"Ah. I see. Please remove your armor and shirt. I will need to clean the wounds before I heal them."
He does not say anything but simply removes the articles of clothing. I couldn't help it. I just stood their gawking at him. His chest is well defined and chiseled. The muscles look strong and he has a six pack. Simply put, he is HOT!
After a moment, I shake off my shock and set to work on cleaning wounds and healing them. They were not as bad as I originally thought so it did not take long to heal them.
"All done Lord Tobirama. Please try to be more careful next time."
He doesn't say anything. But before I can look up to see his face, I feel a hand rest on the top of my head. "Thank you Sakura."
A blush makes its way across my face as I make eye contact with the Second Hokage. I give him a hesitant smile and watch as he makes his way out of the hospital, most likely to go see his brother.
My heart is beating in a wild way. Why? Why was I so affected when I saw his torso? I mean, I have seen hundreds of men without shirts on being a medic ninja, but why did I feel almost…. Faint when I saw Tobirama's?
