Me: Yay! It's Asami's first day of work! Now Asami, please behave yourself.
Asami: Of course I will. Why wouldn't I *smirk*
Me: Yeah sure, like I believe that. Anyway, Asami you must do your best for Naruto, and yourself! Just think; pretty soon, you will finally be able to meet Sasori face to face! How's that for an incentive?
Asami: I will be on my best behavior!
Me: Somehow, I still don't believe that...it's just not in your nature. Well...I hope everyone will enjoy this chapter as much as I enjoyed writing it!
Asami: Please root for me!!
Naruto: Hey don't forget about me! Me too, root for me as well!
Chapter 9: Attraction
"Asami hurry up! You're not the only one who has to get ready you know!" Jeez, I woke her up early enough for us to both be able to take a shower and eat breakfast, but judging by the length of time she's taking, it might cause me to be super late to work.
"Asami what are yo-," before I could finish my statement, the door knob turned and the door opened, revealing a dripping wet, towel covered Asami. The water trickled down her creamy copper skin; the smell coming from her freshly washed body smelled like that of roses. Her hair was soaked, as she walked by, puddles of water followed her from her long thick gray hair. If I wasn't already in love with another woman, I would have pinned her down to the floor and had my way with this amazingly beautiful woman. I couldn't help wonder, if she was born a human, would she be this enchanting, or is it because she started out as a mystical creature. Either way, I would never deny the allure she gave off. Well, at least until she opens her mouth.
"What are you staring at. You've been waiting to go inside haven't you? I'm out now, so quit complaining and take your shower. We have a long day ahead of us."
I closed my mouth after her words broke me out of my trance. "Still angry with me about last night huh? Yeah, yeah you don't have to tell me twice. Just get some clothes on and be ready when I get out. We won't be able to eat breakfast here, we'll just have to grab it at the hospital or something. We need to get to a store to buy you better clothes."
"Yes! I finally get to go to a human store, try on human clothes, and even buy them! Oh Naruto, just hearing that coming out of your mouth brings tears of joy to my eyes. For once, you will grant my wish! Who can be angry at you after doing something so noble like that? I thank you, kind Prince."
I closed the door as she finished with her dramatic speech. The mood swings on that girl, they were ridiculous. "Oh stop the dramatics. Besides, it's coming out of your pay anyway." Asami threw something obviously hard at the door. Welp, she's upset with me again. Like I said, the mood swings on that woman.
"Asami, please! Just pick something already. We are already a half an hour late to work."
"Actually, you are a half an hour late to work, I'm already working because I'm with my boss. Am I correct? Besides, you are employed by the hospital not me, and you practically run that hospital. Every one admires you, and looks up to you. No one is going to get upset if you're just a little late," she said behind the curtain of the fitting room, "There now, all finished." Asami pulled open the curtain and stood there waiting for my response. I glanced over at my new personal assistant who was now wearing a black skirt suit, with a white blouse underneath the jacket. The skirt was a pencil skirt that came to the knees and flared out at the bottom. She had on black stockings, that had a thick black line running down the back of her legs, and high black stiletto shoes that now made her almost as tall as me.
"Well, what do you think?"
I felt my face begin to turn red, "It's fine, now come on let's go."
"But wait, I have to show you my other outfits!"
"Asami, I'm sure they are fine as well, we have to go. Just get them all."
"No! If it's coming out of my pay, I only want to buy things that look good on me! I've been waiting to be able to do this for a long time!"
"Don't pout. Besides, I'm sure whatever you get will look good on you. Just get them, I won't take it out of your pay. Just the one you showed me. Don't worry, you'll have plenty of time to do this in the future. Maybe even with Sasori," I said while walking over to her and putting my hand on her shoulder for reassurance. Asami looked up at me (not much) and a bright smile ran across her face. She nodded her head and we were finally able to leave for the hospital.
"Good morning, Doctor Uzumaki. Your calls are on your desk sir."
"Thank you. Oh by the way, I hired a new personal assistant. Ms. Minase, this is Ms. Asami Minazuka." I walked into my office to let my secretary and Asami get acquainted. I could just feel it, I knew this was going to be a stressful day. Did Asami even really know what to do as my personal assistant? What if Minase asked her something that Asami couldn't answer, or she answers her with some far out answer that only a fairy would say?
"Calm down Naruto, I'm not stupid you know."
"Whew that's good to know...hey wait, I told you not to read my mind!"
"I know, I know, I'm sorry. It's a habit that I'm trying to break. But anyway, enough about me. Have you decided what your next wish will be my master?"
"Don't call me that, especially here." I didn't want to be called master by Asami. Although, the perverted side of me did get a little kick out of it, and it would be even better if Ino could call me that. I needed to focus though, Asami was right to bring that up. I did have to think of my next wish. Especially before I see her today. See...? Hahaha, I think I got it.
"Naruto, you have that suspicious smile on your face again. What are you thinking about? Don't forget how the last wish-"
"Silence Asami, I know what I want my next wish to be."
"Very well Naruto, what is it," Asami said with apathy.
"You can show just a little enthusiasm." Just then, there was a knock at the door.
"Yes," I called out.
"Good morning Naruto, I see you are finally here. I was wondering if you have seen Sasori this morning?" Oh no, Ino! I've seen her already! I've seen her before I was able to make my wish. Oh well, who could really be disappointed about seeing such elegance in the morning. My beautiful Ino, an angel in disguise, but why does she always have to be looking for that loser Sasori. He doesn't even pay her any attention! Yes, my wish will be perfect. I definitely have to make this wish now.
"Oh, good-good morning to-to you too Ino. No, I haven't seen Sasori this morning." As I was saying that, I realized her icy blue eyes focused on the other woman in my room. "Oh yes, how rude of me. Ino, I mean, Doctor Yamanaka, this is-this is uh"
"My name is Asami Minazuka. I'm Naruto's new personal assistant." Thanks Asami, you're a savior. As usual, I couldn't get it out.
"Well...that's surprising. I thought you didn't want to have a personal assistant, and such a pretty one at that," Ino said with that charming smile of hers. She was so wonderful, why couldn't other women be more like her.
"Ah yes I did, but -"
"Yes, Naruto has been very stressed out lately. I'm here to relieve some of that stress, no matter what I have to do. Isn't that right Naruto?"
Asami put her hand to my chest, while looking up at me and then cutting her eyes back over to Ino who now looked appalled. What was Asami doing? Was she trying to make Ino think even less of me? She's here to destroy my life, I just know it. "Now, now, Asami. You don't have to do everything I ask. Just work related, you know...haha."
"Of course boss. It was nice to meet you, Doctor..."
"Doctor Yamanaka."
"Oh yes, that's right. Doctor Yamanaka, it's a pleasure." I could feel the heat emitting off of them. I can understand why Asami wouldn't like Ino very much, she likes Sasori. But why did Ino give off the feeling like she was aggravated by Asami's presence as well. Maybe women can just sense that a rival is in their midst, I don't know.
"Anyway Naruto, I see that Sasori isn't here, and I really need to speak with him about an important matter, so I will be going now. Thanks for helping me."
"Your welcome Ino." Well, that was a little improvement I guess. I said that clearly, and without stuttering too.
"Good-bye Doctor Yamanaka," Asami waved. Ino shot a smile in her direction, and I must say, it wasn't very friendly. There was definitely a rivalry going on between those two. I just don't get how she could pick up that Asami was after Sasori as well. That's just so strange.
"Asami! What was that about?"
"You don't get it do you Naruto?"
"Don't get what?"
"Never mind, I guess you will figure it out for yourself later. Anyway, what was that wish you wanted?"
What was she talking about, I'll figure it out later? Oh yeah, my wish. "Right! Asami!"
"Yes master," Asami chuckled.
"Stop that! I wish to be attractive to those who do not find me attractive!"
"Are you sure about this wish?"
"Yes!"
"Positive?"
"Just do it!"
"Very well...there. Your wish to be attractive to those who do not find you attractive *whisper*Besides Sasori and myself has been granted."
I took in a deep breath. "Now, time to let Ino notice me and ask me out, instead of the other way around."
Asami muttered something under her breath, "You really are a fool aren't you."
"What was that?"
"Oh nothing. Good luck!" She smiled. That woman, I just don't understand her...women period. Time to go look for Ino, and let the sparks fly!
I hop you enjoyed this chapter! Please review and fav!! Thank you!
