Chapter 4: First Date
Disclaimer: I realized that I didn't make it clear that I do not own Naruto or the characters. Wish I did, but I don't own it.
Sasuke talked with Nobunaga while he waited for Kiriomi to walk down the stairs. He was a friendly person for someone who was a famous assassin, but then again, assassinations were one of a ninja's duties. He had no problem killing, but he was worried of those who liked to fight to the death like Anko and Keiji. Those two were fucked up in the head and Sasuke hoped for the sake of the world that it wasn't genetic. Nobunaga, however, had different interests. He liked to sculpt things with the same kunai that he used to kill people with. Sasuke knew that Kiriomi loved to paint; she loved a lot of things and had a flexible personality, a quality that he found attractive. He also loved her singing even though he would never admit it. Whenever she sang he always pretended to find it annoying, but in truth it reminded him of his mother when she would sing as she prepared dinner.
"So what do you do in your spare time," asked Nobunaga.
"I train or take long walks," said Sasuke. "I also write about the sites I see, trying to capture the beauty of nature in a poem."
"Yeah, Kiriomi told me about how she would catch you writing while you walked," said Nobunaga. "I write some to."
"Do you publish any of your stories," asked Sasuke.
"Yeah in fact I author a series called, 'Bushido,'" replied Nobunaga.
"That's my favorite series," said Sasuke in amazement. "I always read them when I'm not training or walking. The drama, the action, and the romance are all so well written."
"Thank you," said Nobunaga with a smile. "I always take pride in my work. As much pride as Kiriomi takes in her singing voice, but I still can't figure out why."
"She has a very talented, very beautiful voice," said Sasuke.
"I never knew you liked it so much," said Kiriomi as she walked down the stairs, her black dress accenting the curves of her slender figure. Sasuke needed to remind himself to breathe.
"You look …beautiful," said Sasuke not knowing what to say.
"Well I guess you two should be off," said Nobunaga, chuckling a bit. "It's nearly seven twenty, what took you so long?"
"I was trying to pick out the right dress," replied the beautiful kunoichi. "It's a lot harder for girls to prepare then guys."
"We just know immediately what we want and how to get it," said Sasuke. He was wearing a black tuxedo with a black vest and a white silk undershirt. He also borrowed a pair of dress shoes to wear. "Well I think we should be heading out. Tell her father that I'll bring her back by eleven by the latest."
"Her father," asked Nobunaga.
"He's the one who requested that Kriomi have a tutor," said Sasuke.
"Is this true," asked Nobunaga.
"Yes," said Kiriomi.
"Is there a problem with this," asked Sasuke.
"Our father was murdered six years ago," said Nobunaga. He shook his head and replaced his glum expression with a smile. "But what does that matter, what's done is done. Now go out before you two starve to death."
The two left the house leaving Nobunaga to stare out into space. You had the tutor thing set up just before you died huh, father? Or are you still alive since they never did find your body, only your blood? Nobunaga wanted to find his father's body and most of all, his father's killer, but the killer left no trace of evidence. It was a mystery whose solution would always be out of his grasp.
"Wow this place looks amazing," said Kiriomi in awe.
The Akimichi restaurant was in the design of a feudal Japanese castle with golden Shisa standing guard at the door. The ivory columns that held up the roof of the ceiling had depictions of dragons and tigers. Lanterns hung from posts that were set up randomly inside the theatre. They had different kanji written on them and the kanji was written in special ink that made the kanji glow in different colors.
"The decorations are amazing, but I think tonight they're about to be outdone in beauty," whispered Sasuke in her ear. It amazed Kiriomi how romantic Sasuke could be and on their first date. Sasuke was acting so romantic because he couldn't help it. The girl in his arms was the most beautiful girl to him and he wanted no one else in his arms.
"You're so sweet," she said as she kissed him. There was electricity flowing through her kiss and he felt it jolt his heart.
It was then that Sasuke saw that the host was none other than Chouji. The obese boy was dressed nicely and for the first time, had his hair groomed instead of the usual mess that he always had. He noticed the two and immediately took them to another part of the restaurant that had karaoke. The couple noticed Shino and Kiba's sister, Hana at a table. Sasuke wanted to move quickly before Hana noticed them because she would surely invite them to join her and Shino. Sasuke wanted to sit quietly with Kiriomi and look into her eyes. Instead, Kiriomi and Hana noticed each other and went to talk to each other. Shino and Sasuke both gave a sigh since Shino had also wanted to look quietly into Hana's eyes. Instead they both sat talking together about how they hooked up. Sasuke found Shino's story amusing since it also included the time when Kiba found out.
"So how did he find out," asked Sasuke.
"He walked in on us while we were having sex," said Shino. It was surprising to Sasuke how Shino was actually older than his teammates.
"It must have been that day when everyone could hear him screaming," said Sasuke remembering that the scram brought Gaara to Konoha believing that Sakura was in trouble.
"I heard you like to sing," said Hana to Kiriomi. "You know Shino has a wonderful voice that you should really hear."
"Wait, Shino singing," asked Sasuke. "I have got to see this to believe it."
"Something about that statement pisses me off," said Shino.
"Well go on Shi-kun," said Hana pushing him towards the microphone. "Sing that song you sang to me the night we met."
Shino smiled and found the song.
"I wear my sunglasses at night
So I can, So I can,
Watch you weave and breathe your story lines."
Sasuke didn't know what to say to Shino. He was actually a good singer.
"I don't believe anything of what I'm seeing," said Sasuke.
"Neither do I," said Kiriomi.
"I just love it when he sings," said Hana with hunger in her eyes. "He just gets me horny when he puts all his spirit in his voice. I can't wait to take him home for some hot, sweaty sex."
Sasuke and Kiriomi both nearly choked on their dinner. "I don't think that's something you should say at a restaurant," said Sasuke.
"Oh sorry," said Hana. "I guess I just love with the wall-slamming sex we have too much."
"Wow, that is too much information," said Kiriomi.
"I didn't think Shino would actually be the type to do that," said Sasuke. "I always figured he'd be the gentle type. That's why so many girls tried to get him into bed with them."
"But he stayed true," said Hana. "I just love him and I know he loves me. He even showed me his real eye."
"What do they look like," asked Sasuke.
"He'll tell you if he wants you to know," replied Hana. That was all he was going to get from her.
Shino walked up to Sasuke and said, "Your turn wiseass."
"What," asked Sasuke a bit confused.
"I dare you to pick a song and sing it," said Shino. "Now are you man enough or not?"
"Alright then," said Sasuke. He had only one choice, he would have to sing NIN since Trent Reznor was the only voice he could do. He didn't have the vocals for Guns N' Roses or Ozzie Ozbourne so he wasn't going to try them and he tried to keep up his heavy metal image so Jimmy Hendrix was out of the question.
Unfortunately, the only love song Trent Reznor ever made was on the Downward Spiral and it was very explicit in its meaning. He gathered all his courage and started singing the song "Closer." He noticed that Shino and Hana were kissing each other deeply as he sang. They might have had sex on the table had the song not ended before they could get to undressing each other. They were lucky that most people were more focused on Sasuke, who had been slowly gaining status in the public eye. When Sasuke was finished he noticed a blushing Kiriomi staring at him with rage.
"I'm sorry I didn't know any other love songs I could sing," said Sasuke. "I'll make it up to you right now."
He walked back up to the microphone and played Foxy Lady by Jimmy Hendrix. It made Kiriomi blush some more, but she felt glad knowing that Sasuke was willing to shatter that hardened image of himself for her.
They left the restaurant and decided to take a quick walk before Sasuke took her back home. They were stalling for time because neither of them wanted to depart from the other. Sasuke started climbing up a tree and asked Kiriomi to follow.
"I can't climb up there in this dress," said Kiriomi.
"Here then I'll push you up," said Sasuke.
"But my dress," said Kriomi. She knew that if he pushed her up he might get a look at her panties and she had always been shy about someone, anyone seeing them.
"Your dress will be fine," said Sasuke, who went ahead and lifted her up. As he did that, the wind blew right at the moment when he had her lifted over his head staring up to see if she had reached a branch or not. The wind had blown her dress to give Sasuke a clear view of her black panties, a view he had tried to avoid, but wasn't quick enough. As soon as Kiriomi was on the tree trunk she turned to help Sasuke up. She found him trying to stifle a nosebleed with a handkerchief from his pocket.
"Oh so you're a pervert aren't you," asked Kiriomi teasingly.
"No it's just the affect you have on me," said Sasuke. "Nice panties though."
The two sat in the trunk looking at the stars while they argued over which constellation was which and later fell asleep.
Morning came and the two found themselves in a panic.
"Holy shit is that the time," asked Sasuke looking at his watch.
"Onii-chan's going to kill me for sure," said Kiriomi. The two ran back to Kiriomi's house hoping to think of some way to escape the wrath of Nobunaga.
