Chapter 13

"Yeah, so he stormed off and that's that." I say, explaining my day to the family. "Wow, I never knew Naruto was that kind of person." Lee says. "D-d-did you see Sakura-chan?" Lee asks. "Yes, I did." I say. Lee's eyes turn into hearts as he faints to the floor. ".. Lee?" I ask. "Nii-chan!" Mei calls, waving her hand in front of his infatuated face. "I am perfectly fine!" Lee says, sitting back up straight. "Why don't you just ask her out?" I ask. Lee sighs. "I did, but she turned me down, calling me weird." He says. "Don't worry 'bout that Lee, she just thinks that, but you never know, in time when you save her life a few times she may change her opinion." Guy says. I chuckle. "Alright alright, I'm sorry about that Guy." I say. "Hn? What do you mean?" Lee asks.
Guy told him all about how he repeatedly would ask me out and I'd refuse, and that I finally had a change in heart after he saved my life multiple times. But Guy still doesn't know the true reason.. That Kakashi told me he hates me.
"So if I can prove to her how dedicated I am.. She will come to me?" Lee asks. "That's correct Lee." Guy says. "Thank you Guy-sensei, you're words are so inspirational!" Lee states. I watch them as they hug. "Mom?.. Hug?" Mei asks. I chuckle. "Of course."

So the next day both my and Guy's squad are waiting together for our mission. We're waiting on Neji and Tenten, as they are getting the equipment we need. We're heading out to fight a large number or Iwa ninja who have come back for another taste of Konoha's hostility.
"Before we go, Matsu-chan, I love you." Guy says, embracing me. I blush. "Guy.." I smile. "What do you say, we go and kick some Iwa butt again?" Guy says, pulling back from the hug. I nod. "We'll beat 'em all down again." I say. Guy smiles. "This may as well just be one of our last missions, I know it will be dangerous, but we'll rain victorious!" Guy says. "Yes, we'll have some fun too, after all, we wont be young forever!" I say. Guy chuckles. "Yes, I agree."

Neji and Tenten arrive, and so we are off. We don't split up, rather stay together.

The fight had begun. They were a lot stronger than we remembered from the war. "Guy! Watch your back!" I call, slicing an enemy. "Yes, I know!" Guy calls back.
"Shit, there's more of them than I thought.. Guy! Lets do our combo, for old times sake!" I say. Guy grins and jumps beside me. "Genjutsu Binding!" I says, trapping them. "I expected as much!" Says an enemy, jumping down from the trees, aiming straight at me. Guy didn't notice him until he got me, luckily I managed to move just in time so he missed my neck, but he still sliced through my shoulder. And in cringing, my genjutsu broke. All the enemy charged at us, though, luckily our squad was here. "Matsu-chan.." Guy mutters. "Don't worry about me Guy." I say, grasping my shoulder. "Tenten behind you!" I shout, and without hesitating I throw my body behind her to take the hit. The enemy's kunai drove straight through my stomach. "Matsu-sensei!" Tenten shrieks, turning around. I fall to the ground cringing in utter pain. "You're gonna pay for that you bastard!" Guy roars, bashing the crap out of him. He kneel down to me. "Matsu.. Are you alright?" He asks. "Keep.. Fighting.." I whimper. Guy looked as though he didn't want to leave my side. "I will, but promise me, you wont die." Guy says. I weakly nod my head. He forces himself to stand up and continue fighting. But I was losing blood fast. I wasn't sure if I was going to make it.

As the battle finished, I had passed out from the excessive blood loss.

I must be dreaming.. I was running with Guy, Lee and Mei in a field of flowers. The sky was clear, no clouds in sight. We were having so much fun, mucking around and play-fighting.
Then everything started fading.. What's going on! Everything was going black! No! Guy! Come back! Please. I shut my eyes. This can't be happening. Then I hear a muffled voice, it was calling my name. I open my eyes and see a small light. I open them wider and the light grows. I could see a blurry face, but I recognized the black around the top of it. I blink a few times and my vision became clear. "MATSU! Oh thank goodness!" Guy grieved. "G-Guy.. What happened?" I ask. "I thought you weren't going to make it. The machine had a flat line.. Matsu you stopped breathing." Guy sobs. "M-machine?" I look around and notice I'm in a hospital bed. "Did we win?" I ask. "Yes, we did." Guy says, tears running from his eyes like a running tap. "Guy.. I love you." I say. "I love you too Matsu.. I will protect you with my life, with my soul, with my heart, with my everlasting love! My heart will always belong to you, for as long as the earth revolves." Guy replies, a big smile comes across my face.

The End :)
