Chapter 9
Disclaimer-I'm not gonna say it.
Jinrou POV
We both just stared at each other. Both too stubborn to say the first word or look away. I shifted my weight. He scratched the back of his head. I could hear a bird chirp then fly away.
"So," I trailed off.
"Yeah." He said. I sighed. I went into the room and grabbed an outfit. I stripped and put the new outfit on. It was black jean short shorts, a blue t-shirt, some black ninja sandals with blue designs, and a black and blue checkered beanie. I walked back into the living room and sat on the couch. Naruto sat next to me.
"So, how long was I... unconscious?" I asked him.
"About two and a half days." He said. I nodded. "Where were you? In your mind, I mean."
"I was in the place in my mind where Ookami stays." I told him.
"Why did you come back?" I gave him a look. "Not that I didn't want you back! But what made you come back?"
"I can't hide away from my problems forever. As much as I might want to." He looked down. "Sasuke said he told you what happened." I said. He looked at me.
"Yeah." He turned to me and took my hands in his. "I'm really sorry. I should've asked about what happened first." I looked at him.
"Yes. You should have." I told him in a soft voice. "You really hurt me, you know." I said quietly.
"I know. I'm sorry." I looked away. When I looked back at him, his face was down cast. I stood up and brought him up with me. He looked at me and I smiled at him. Suddenly, I pulled my arm back and punched him as hard as I could in the face. He went flying and landed with a thud against a wall. I walked to him and helped him up.
"Now I forgive you." I told him smiling. He looked at me weird. I hugged him. "But you better not do anything like that again." I growled in his ear. I stepped back and smiled at him. "How about we go out for ramen?" He nodded. We went outside and walked to the ramen shop. We sat down.
"Hiya Naruto, Jinrou." The man said to us in greeting. "Would you like the usual?" We nodded, smiling. We sat in comfortable silence as we waited for our ramen. "Here ya go." He said as he put the bowels down in front of us. We nodded in our thanks. We began to eat. When we were done, we went to go find sensei. We decided to search the bookstore.
"Hey sensei." We said once we found him.
"Oh, hello Naruto. Hey, I'm glad you're looking better Jinrou."
"Thanks sensei. What're you reading?" I asked as I peaked over his shoulder. My eyes widened and I blushed. I looked around and noticed we were in the adult section of the store. "Um, never mind. Come on Naruto, lets go." I said hastily as I took his hand.
"Um, okay." He said as he followed me.
"Oh, we're to meet with the Hokage for a mission. You have about two hours before we have to go." Kakashi sensei called back to us.
"Okay!" We yelled back. We ran outside.
"How about we find Sasuke and Sakura and we all go swim at the waterfall?" I asked him as we were walking.
"Sure." We started hopping through the rooftops and went to go find Sasuke first.
"Hey Sasuke, grab your swimming trunks. We're going swimming." I called out to him. We put his head out of his window.
"Why?"
"Cuz I'm bored and we have two hours to kill." I yelled back to him. He nodded. He came outside wearing his swimming trunks and a t-shirt with sandals. "Lets go find Sakura." They nodded and we ran from rooftop to rooftop. We finally found Sakura's house.
"Yo Sakura! Find your swim suit cuz we're going swimming!" I yelled as I hung upside down and poked my head through her window. She was doing her hair in the mirror.
"Okay." I jumped back on her roof and she was in some jean shorts and a t-shirt with sandals.
"Lets go to our house." I said as we went to Naruto and I's house. I jumped in through the window while Sasuke and Sakura waited on the roof. I grabbed my white bikini with a dark blue heart bedazzled on the left breast. I slipped it on and put on some shorts and a shirt that I ripped myself. It was a t-shirt, now it showed my shoulders and went up to right above my belly button. I slipped on some sandals and I jumped back on the roof.
"One awkward silence later." I said as I saw that Sakura and Sasuke weren't talking and were looking the other way. Sasuke chuckled but Sakura just frowned at me. Naruto came up in some orange swimming trunks and a t-shirt with sandals.
"Lets go!" I said as I led the way. We got to the waterfall in no time. We started stripping. Sakura was wearing a one piece and was looking at Sasuke eagerly to see if he noticed her. Naruto and Sasuke were shirtless in their swimming trunks. I slipped off my shorts and took off my shirt. When the boys saw my swim suit their eyes widened. I tied my hair up. "Come on!" I said as I ran to the water. I jumped and landed on the same boulder. They jumped after me.
'Lets have some fun.' I whispered to Ookami.
'Alright!' Se pumped chakra into me. My hair turned white and my eyes a bright dark blue, but besides that I was the same. I made stairs and we started running up them. When we got to the top of the waterfall, I jumped to the waterfall and went down the current, laughing all the way down. They followed me down and we all fell laughing. When we reached the bottom, my hair went back to its original black and my eyes to their black. We swam around and then went up for air.
"Lets play chicken fight!" I yelled enthusiastically. They nodded smiling. Sakura quickly went to Sasuke and climbed up on his shoulders. He grabbed her legs to keep her steady. I sat on Naruto's shoulders and he held onto my thighs. "Alright! 1! 2! 3!" I yelled. The boys rushed forward and my and Sakura started pushing and lightly slapping each other to get the other to fall. She fell and her and Sasuke. I laughed as they both came up gasping for air. As I laughed they both tackled us down and we were all under water. I smiled at them all and started swimming. They followed me and we swam under the waterfall. We stood up and the the water splash down on us.
"That was fun." I said laughing.
"Lets play again." Sasuke said. Sakura looked excited. "But how about we switch partners this time?" We all nodded except Sakura. We look at her and she sighed, but nodded. We swam back and we got on our partners' shoulders. Sasuke held onto my thighs and Naruto held onto Sakura's knees.
"Alright. Ready, set, GO!" I yelled as they rushed forward. We did the same and this time, Sasuke slipped and we fell under water. He somehow twisted his body, and his face was... between my thighs. I blushed a bright scarlet and could only stare at him. He gave me a smirk and we both swam up.
"Haha, we win." Sakura cheered.
"Whatever." Sasuke said smirking.
"Hey, what are you all doing?" Came a voice. We looked at where the dry ground was, and saw Kakashi-sensei standing there looking at us.
"We were just killing some time." I yelled back.
"Well, you might want to get out already. We have to go see the Hokage."
"Alright." We called back. We swam to the shore and Sakura screamed.
"Get it off me!" We looked and saw something green on her leg. "Ah! I think it's a leech!" She screamed covering her face. I walked forward and looked at her leg. "Jinrou! Get it off me!" I reached forward and peeled it off her leg.
"It's a leaf." I told her with an exasperated sigh. She opened her fingers and looked at me.
"A... Leaf?" I nodded. She blushed. "Oh, okay." She said straightening up. I have her a look. "You're not gonna let this go soon, are you?"
"Not a chance in hell." I replied smiling devilishly. Se sighed and we dried off. We went to our houses and got dressed. I put on some black jean short shorts, a white tank top, and my zip up hoodie with my ninja sandals. We went to the Hokage's and we all met up there. We went inside and the Hokage started talking about how we had a mission to dosage some cat.
"Come on, Hokage! That's so easy! Please give us something harder!" I whined. He looked annoyed, probably because Naruto was whining non-stop.
"Fine. Take this man back to his village." He pointed at the door and some old guy was standing there. Well, it's better than rescuing some cat.
There you go! Hope you enjoyed! Make sure to review!
