Chapter Ten: Oh God No.
Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto.
A/N:
Uwah! Ten Chapters FINALLY! Took quite a while I think. WOOT! SASUKE AND MANAMI ARE COOL! Nice reviews make me happy! And a happy author makes more chapters!!! Hint-hint.
BTW, no lemon in this chapter. I mean, COME ON! THEY'VE ONLY KISSED!!
Manami's Point Of View
We hugged and got up and brushed the sand off each other.
Then we heard distant rustles in the trees near the beach.
I looked at Sasuke. He was also looking at me.
We both got out kunai and threw it at the branches, making more than five people fall out of the tree.
It was Naruto. And Hinata. And Kiba… well, you get the idea.
Sakura and Ino grinned and screamed. "MANAMI!!! YATTA!! YOU FINALLY GOT TOGETHER WITH HIM!!"
I cringed. "I thought I locked you in the house…"
"Manami." Tenten put her hand on my shoulder. "We're ninjas. You think we can't get out of a locked house? …Sakura punched the door down,"
I sweatdropped. "You did what?"
"Sakura ruined the house door," Tenten grinned sheepishly.
"SAKURA! THAT'S MY HOUSE! YOU'RE GONNA HAVE TO PAY FOR A NEW DOOR!!!" I yelled at the pink haired kunoichi.
"H-Hai… Manami…. Ma'am," Sakura stuttered.
I sighed. "Other than that… What're you guys doing here?"
"We stalked you on your date!" Naruto grinned.
Kiba nudged him hard and glared. "Naruto!"
"OH! I mean… We didn't stalk you on your date!" Naruto nodded goofily.
I rolled my eyes. "Uh-huh. Why did you stalk us?"
Naruto crossed his arms and pouted. "I didn't think I was that obvious,"
"Manami, we wanted to know what happened on the date, but we knew that you would never spill the beans, so we followed you," Ino explained.
I instantly blushed. "S-So… You just… saw me make-out… with Sasuke?" I asked quietly.
They all nodded. "Hai,"
"You guys give us so much privacy," Sasuke mumbled sarcastically.
"Hmph. I'm not the one making out on a public beach," Shikamaru frowned.
"Touché, Shikamaru-kun," I raised my eyebrows.
He smirked, but sighed.
"I miss Temari," He murmured.
Ino patted his back. "Its okay, Shikamaru! You'll see her later when the chuunin exams are held!"
"Bah, let's start partying in the celebration of Sasuke and Manami getting back together!" Sakura yelled.
Everyone cheered and weirdly enough, I saw Tsunade, Shizune and Jiraiya heading towards us.
"What're you guys doing here?" I asked.
"We heard about you and Sasuke. Congratulations," Shizune smiled.
News spreads around here a bit too fast. I thought.
"Tsunade-sama… shouldn't you be at the office working?" I asked.
He rolled her eyes. "Aw c'mon on kid…"
"Tsunade-sama just wanted to get out of the building," Shizuka explained.
"Didn't you stop her?"
"It's kind of hard to stop a woman like her,"
"Fine, fine. Talk about me like I'm not here," Tsunade whined, putting her hand on her hip.
I shook my head. "Whatever. I'm glad you guys are here anyway,"
"Honto ni?!" Everyone asked.
Yes. Everyone.
"Yeah. I guess you proved that you guys care about me… in a stalker-ish way," I shrugged.
They laughed and began building a bonfire and splashed around the water.
I sat down in the sand. Sasuke sat next to me.
"Hey," He said.
"Hey," I gave him a small smile.
He put an arm around my shoulder, making me go closer to him. I rested my head on his shoulder.
"You okay?" Sasuke asked.
"I've never been better," I looked at him.
He kissed my forehead.
"Do you feel like partying tonight?" I asked.
"Not really. All that stuff we did before wore me out," Sasuke smirked.
I closed my eyes and nodded.
"Let's go home," I said.
He blinked at me. "Okay then,"
I took his hand and we stood up, with him walking me back to my house.
We reached my doorstep and I smiled at him. "Sasuke, you don't have to necessarily drop me here,"
He cocked his head to the side, but after a few seconds he got it, and he smirked. "You want to stay at my place?"
I nodded. "Just let me get some of my stuff,"
I opened the door and let him in. He sat on the couch and waited as I packed my stuff.
Well, not all of it. I was only sleeping over for a night… maybe two. Depends.
I went downstairs with my stuff in a bag and tapped Sasuke on the shoulder.
He turned around and we left the house.
We reached his doorstep and he let me in.
I looked around and sighed. "I haven't seen this place for ages,"
Sasuke nodded. "Yeah. The place has collected a lot of dust,"
"You didn't clean it?" I asked.
"No. I'm not that type of 'cleaning' guy," Sasuke stood behind me.
"If you say so," I said.
He wrapped his arms around my waist from behind. "So, where are you sleeping tonight?"
"Gee, it's kind of obvious," I smirked.
"On the couch?" Sasuke frowned slightly.
"No, Sasuke. Guess again," I said, turning around to face him.
"My bed…?" Sasuke pleaded.
I hugged him. "Correct,"
He took me upstairs to the bathroom where I could change into my pajamas and he changed in his room. He had a bathroom in his room too.
I wore a white nightgown that was above my knees. I brushed my teeth.
I knocked on his bedroom door and he opened it. He wore a loosed black shirt with his boxers. Black, of course.
I put my bag in the corner of the room.
I sat on his bed and silence had come between us. God, that happens a little too much.
"It's been a long time since we've slept together like this," I said.
He nodded. "Yeah…"
"Do you…?" I began.
"…Feel awkward?" He finished.
"Yeah, just a little," I smiled.
"Same here,"
I stood up and kissed him softly. "Let's go to sleep then,"
I slipped under the sheets and covered myself up. He lay down next to me and wrapped his arms around my waist (from behind).
"Goodnight, Manami," He whispered in my ear.
"Goodnight," I closed my eyes.
-x-x-x-x-
I woke up the next morning in Sasuke's arms, and the sun beaming in my face.
I swear to God, I'll be blind if I don't get out soon… I thought, shading my eyes from the window.
I slowly took away Sasuke's arms, being careful not to wake him up, and got out of bed.
I stretched and went downstairs.
I tied my hair up in a bun and got out eggs and bacon for breakfast.
Just before I turned the stove on, I heard a couple of knocks at the door.
I opened it to find Naruto, Hinata, Lee and Sakura.
"What're you guys doing here?" I asked.
"That's what we should be asking you," Naruto smirked.
I rolled my eyes. "No, I didn't 'do it' with him, baka,"
Naruto frowned. "Che, I knew that,"
I shook my head. "Why are you here?"
"We wanted to know why you left early," Sakura said.
"Well, Sasuke and I were tired, so we left. End of story. You can go now," I said, almost closing the door.
Until Naruto wedged his foot in between the door and the wall.
"Manami-oneechan, m-may we have breakfast with you and Sasuke-kun?" Hinata timidly asked.
I sighed. I couldn't say no to adorable Hinata. "Okay, fine,"
They went inside and Hinata and Sakura helped with cooking breakfast.
Just when breakfast was getting served, Sasuke woke up and walked down the stairs towards us, yawning.
"What're you guys doing here?" He asked Naruto, Sakura, Hinata and Lee.
"Good morning to you too, Sasuke-kun," Lee grinned.
Naruto chuckled. "We wanted to have breakfast with you guys,"
"I hope its okay, Sasuke," I said to him.
"It's fine, just surprised that you guys were here so early," Sasuke rubbed his eye.
"No… actually it's around 10am now. We came here an hour ago," Naruto said.
"It's unusual for me to wake up so late…" Sasuke murmured.
"Don't worry, Sasuke. You can go and eat now," I said, kissing his cheek.
After we all ate breakfast, Sasuke and I got ready for training, whilst Sakura and Naruto waited for us; Hinata and Lee went off to their teams.
We all reached the training grounds and Sai wasn't there.
"Where's Sai…?" Sakura said.
Yamato teleported in front of us and smiled. "Sasuke, Manami, I heard the news. Is it true that you're together again?"
I smirked. "Yes, its true, isn't it, Sasuke-koi (love; used for affection)?"
Sasuke slightly blushed. "Yeah it's true,"
Yamato chuckled. "Well, that's good, oh, and about Sai…"
We all listened carefully.
"Sai isn't on the team anymore… for some reason. Tsunade-sama wouldn't tell me…" Yamato said.
"Hequit the team?! ARE YOU ALLOWED TO DO THAT?!" Naruto yelled.
"I wouldn't call it 'quitting' the team… more like… 'Taken away'" Yamato rubbed his head.
"Well, at least I don't have to listen to his ramblings about dicks…" Naruto muttered.
"Yeah, but… why would he be taken away?" I wondered.
"Maybe there were a lot of people in this team…" Sakura shrugged.
"I guess…" I said. "But whatever, he was trouble anyway. Let's get training,"
The team nodded, and we began.
-x-x-x-x-
Training had finished, and we had trained harder than usual.
You could tell with Naruto on the ground, gasping for air.
I wiped my forehead. "Okay, Naruto-kun's all tired out… Yamato-taichou?"
He smiled. "We're done for the day,"
"That's good," I said.
"Manami," Sasuke said from beside me.
I turned to him. "Hai?"
"Let's go out," He said.
I rolled my eyes. "Yes, master,"
He smirked and wrapped his arms around my waist. "I kind of like you calling me that,"
I blushed. "Ohh, aha… right,"
"GET A ROOM, YOU TWO!" Naruto yelled.
Sakura hit his head. "BAKA! THEY'RE HAVING A ROMANTIC MOMENT HERE! LEAVE THEM ALONE!!!"
She looked at us and smiled. "Please, don't mind us,"
I smiled and turned back to Sasuke. "I'd love to go out,"
He smirked and took hold of my hand.
"We're going now," He told the others.
"Jaa ne, Manami, Sasuke-kun," Sakura waved.
"BYE, BYE MANAMI-CHAN AND OTHER!!" Naruto smiled.
"Don't refer as "other" dobe," Sasuke muttered.
"HMPH! I can call you whatever I LIKE!" Naruto yelled.
Yamato shook his head. "You two still argue after all these years… I would've thought you were mature enough to handle each other,"
"Well, you thought wrong," Sakura sighed.
I cut in Naruto and Sasuke's argument. "Guys, you should know that this is pointless,"
Naruto pouted. "Fine, fine..."
"Hn," Sasuke said.
I waved. "See ya, guys,"
They waved goodbye and Sasuke and I walked off.
Sasuke held my hand as we walked around Konoha.
I didn't think he would go completely public so soon.
But, hey, whatever floats his boat.
Fangirls stood there, sending daggers at me and I glared right back at them.
With the help of Sasuke glaring as well.
We reached the ramen stall and were greeted with Konohamaru, his friends, the old man who owns the stall and his daughter.
Konohamaru stared with wide eyes. The ramen in his mouth fell back in the bowl.
Uhm… Ew.
"Manami-oneechan?! You're back with Sasuke? When?? How?? WHY??" Konohamaru cried.
"I don't see why you care so much, Konohamaru," I said, taking a seat.
Konohamaru blushed furiously and mumbled, "Uh, never mind,"
I glanced at Sasuke and he smirked.
"I wouldn't blame him, Manami." Sasuke said. "You're a beautiful girl,"
I rolled my eyes and I ordered my ramen. I looked at Sasuke.
"Just one bowl," Sasuke said to the old man and me.
"We're going to share?" I blinked.
"No, of course not. We're going to pour it in the river," Sasuke said sarcastically.
I rolled my eyes. "Very funny,"
"I know I am," Sasuke smirked.
I shook my head and began eating my… our ramen.
-x-x-x-x-
Sasuke and I finished the ramen and we paid for it.
We left the stall waving goodbye to Konohamaru and his friends.
"Konohamaru likes you," Sasuke said, when we reached somewhat near his house.
"You think I don't know?" I replied.
"You saw the way he blushed… Still, I don't appreciate it if there are guys, even ones that are way younger than you, eyeing you," Sasuke crossed his arms.
I wrapped my arms around his neck and whispered in his ear, "But I'll always be yours, Sasuke,"
Sasuke held my waist and smirked. "That's more like it,"
His kissed me and I kissed him back.
Ah, it feels good to be genuinely happy again.
Then, we sensed strong chakra… Four of them.
"Can you feel that?" I asked quietly.
He nodded slowly. "It's strong. I can recognize it,"
We turned around to see four people, two I didn't recognize.
Sasuke glared at the figures in the dark.
I gasped."Oh God no..."
"Orochimaru…"
