Ai giggled to herself as she left the dining hall. "Hopefully Uren will stop freaking out long enough to acctually have a conversation with that boy." She skipped round the corner and suddenly gasped when Orochimaru's slender figure barred her path. "Well good evening Ai" he seductively hissed. Ai was numb, she couldn't muster a response. "You must be hungry, you are usually tearing up the food hall by now." Ai blushed and made a murmuring noise. Orochimaru rolled his eyes and tilted the girl's head up so his golden eyes could shine into hers. "Why don't you come have dinner with me hmmn? Make up for all those nasty injections you so bravely sat through." Ai's eyes widened in disbelief. "Yes!" she positively squealed. Orochimaru chuckled and brushed some hair away from her face. He lead her back to his room where a lavish meal had been prepared. There were already 2 plates. Ai wondered for a moment if the snake sannin had planned this before hand. "I usually eat with Kabuto..." Ai's face dropped. "Oh right..." She still preferred to think that the meal had been placed there for just them. She sat down at the bench that was usually covered in lab equipment and shuffled a little closer to her master. Orochimaru sat next to her, but at the head of the table and gestured at the food. "Help yourself" he said smoothly. Ai slowly piled food onto her plate and attempted to eat it in the most princess like way possible. The meal passed silently but contently and once Ai had stuffed herself completely she yawned and stretched. Orochimaru seemed to be in a pleasant mood, Ai wondered if it was because she was there. "Enjoy yourself?" Orochimaru spoke softly. Ai nodded and blushed. "Yeah, thank you very much." she bowed her head, only to have Orochimaru lift it back up with his silken hand. Then he lent in, like he was about to kiss her, but stopped short of her lips. Ai let out some sort of confused "uh" noise. Orochimaru smirked and flicked his tongue in and out briefly, part of it connecting ever so slightly with his subordinates lip. Ai felt her heart beat increase ten fold. Orochimaru drew back but still cupped the girl's face in his hand. "You're so much you know." Ai gulped but managed a reply. "Y-you to." Orochimaru laughed at her and drew back. "Right, off with you now, I have things to prepare." Ai felt as if she were floating somewhere high in the sky and obediently rose from her seat. "I'll see you later..." she managed to get out dreamily before she left the room where she briefly heard her master hiss "Yes, you most definitely will."
