Wow, you guys are great. I really liked your comments on Tayuya's reactions to Naruto's comments. As it's been said, Tayuya has no idea how to take compliments, let alone from a boy. Now, in the last chapter, I did say that this one would focus on the story's second couple, Sasuke and Sakura. Not to worry, it's not entirely focused on them.

P.S. 8/20/17

Sorry for taking so long with this chapter, really. Also, since the name of Naruto's Doujutsu was changed, I'll be going back and updating the name and appearance of the "Ketsuryugan".

And as an added bonus, an extra pairing is officially added to this story, because these two are just too under used.

8: Girl Talk & Guy Talk


Naruto sat seiza in the center of a sealing circle, chanting a short mantra that was meant to go along with the casting of the seal he was working on. But his focus was elsewhere. Namely on a certain red-haired young woman that had recently entered his life.

Growing up, Naruto's mind had once been occupied with thoughts of his rosette teammate, Sakura. In the passed week, however, as Tayuya had taken to living with him in the old Uzumaki compound, his thoughts had been wandering further and further from his first crush. It wouldn't have done any good, he knew, because even before going after Sasuke, Sakura had been getting farther and farther out of his thoughts.

It was clear, even to him who wasn't the smartest of his friends, that Sakura was irrevocably attracted to his other teammate, Sasuke. And, though he would never admit it, Sasuke was growing closer and closer to the rosette medic in training. He had seen them more than once together around the village, and Sasuke actually looked pleased with her company.

A tap on his shoulder brought him out of his failed chant, making him look up to see Jiraiya standing there. "A ryo for your thoughts?"

Naruto sighed and stood up, "Sorry, I know I'm supposed to be getting ready for the sealing method, but - "

"Your mind wanders to matters of the heart," Jiraiya said, sounding wise for once, smiling as he sat down, giving the boy a level-eyed look, "Just what's eating you, Naruto?" He asked, smirking, "Is it Sakura, or is it Tayuya-chi?"

Naruto grimaced. "She doesn't like being called that."

"Tayuya, then," he said, snapping his fingers with a grin. "Thought as much."

Naruto frowned, "It's not like that, Pervy Sage."

Jiraiya rolled his eyes, "That's what your father said as a fresh Genin when he and Kushina palled around." He said as Naruto flushed red, "Come on, Naruto, this isn't me trying to do some of my research. This is me trying to help my student."

Naruto shook his head, sitting back down with a flop, "I don't know, but...she's...different."

"Different how?" Jiraiya asked, looking at the boy in interest, his arms crossed.

Scratching the back of his head, Naruto sighed, "That's the thing...I don't know." He confessed, "There's tons of pretty girls here in the village, but with her..."

"No one else can compare," Jiraiya smiled in understanding, "To you, no one else can look so beautiful, yet so terrifying, and fragile, all at once." He said as the boy looked at him, a little shocked, "So beautiful, you want to approach, yet you fear what she would turn you away if you did, and so fragile you fear harming her yourself."

Naruto nodded slowly, "Y-yeah, that kind of feels like how...how she makes me feel."

Jiraiya chuckled and patted the boy on the shoulder. "And so the boy becomes a man," he said, "How long have you felt like this?"

Naruto looked embarrassed, "We were in the bath two nights ago," he said, Jiraiya remaining quiet as he spoke, "I asked her about her curse mark, and she showed me what she looked like."

Jiraiya frowned at that, "Uh-oh, what'd you do? Say she looked weird?"

Naruto shook his head, "No, I thought she looked...well, beautiful," he blushed, shaking his head again, "I mean, I've never seen anything like what she looked like right then," he said truthfully, "Her skin was so dark, like melted caramel, or something. And her eyes!" He shivered as he remembered how those black and gold orbs had looked when turned on him. "I've never seen eyes like hers before. Even when she's not transformed, they're way different than anyone else's."

"The eyes of a seasoned kunoichi," Jiraiya stated with a nod of his head, smiling, "Knowing Orochimaru, he got her young, way younger than a shinobi should be trained, and made her what she is as a fighter." He said, "You've never seen it, Naruto, but to a trained eye, even a kunoichi in disguise can be spotted by eyes like that. Cold, yet at the same time, warm and inviting."

Naruto shook his head, "That's not it." He said, thinking back on the look she'd given him in the bath just before touching his scar, the only scar he had on his body, actually. "When she looked at me, it's almost like she didn't believe me, like no one had ever said she was pretty or anything like that."

"Ah," Jiraiya nodded, "Probably because she hadn't until then." He said, smirking, "What did she do then?"

Naruto rubbed the center of his chest, "She touched the scar Sasuke's Chidori left." He said, "And I...held her hand for a minute...then she left in a really big hurry."

At this, the old man chuckled. "Naruto, you really are a knucklehead, you know that?" Naruto frowned, but the old man just sighed, placing his hand on the boy's shoulder. "Tayuya's never had anyone tell her that she's pretty, or anything like that. And you're probably the only boy she's ever been close to like this. Think about it. She's acting the way she is because, even though she doesn't know it, the girl has a thing for you."

Naruto blushed, "Really?"

"Uh-huh, and I'd say you feel the same," he said, grinning as the boy's face went a deeper shade of red."Naruto, it's nothing to be embarrassed about. It's nice to see you taking an interest in someone other than Sakura."

The blond sighed, "I guess, but she's way different than Sakura-chan." Naruto admitted, "She's violent, yeah, but she's...she's sweet, and kinda shy - "

"Damn," Jiraiya muttered, shaking his head with a slight smile, "I was wrong, you're not crushing, you're smitten, kiddo."

Naruto looked worried, "So...what do I do?"

Jiraiya shrugged, "If Tayuya's reactions are anything to go on, keep doing what you've done up until now." He said, "Just be with her. She's still new to all of this, so she won't know what to feel until it pretty much smacks her in the face."

Naruto smiled, "Okay, so just keep being me," he sighed, "I can do that."

=|Meanwhile|=

Tayuya sat back against the tree with a sigh of relief. The morning's training session was brutal as always, and she was feeling it more than usual. She hadn't been sleeping as well as she usually did under Naruto's roof. She didn't want to admit it, but the reason for her lack of sleep was her host.

"You look beautiful."

She sighed and tucked her legs up to her chest, 'Just what about me is beautiful when I look like that?' She wondered as she watched Sakura sparring with Tsunade whilst she, Ino, Tenten and Hinata rested. She reached up to touch the mark on her neck, 'Still...he's the only one that never looked at me, and wasn't afraid of me when I changed.'

"I don't get it," Ino panted, sweating profusely, "Where's Forehead getting all of that energy?" She asked as she watched Sakura get knocked back again, only for the rosette to get right back up and start again at the Godaime.

Tenten giggled as she fanned out her blouse, "Gotta give her credit," she said, watching the pair as Sakura nearly connected a punch, "She's getting better. As far as fighting strength goes, she's got all of us beat."

"Hinata can beat her in straight up Taijutsu, though," Tayuya put in for the blunette's benefit. "Sakura's got way more strength than any of us, but Hinata has us all beat as far as training goes."

Said Hyuuga only gave a tired smile, "Thank you, Tayuya-san. But you've all got much more stamina than I do."

"KYAAAAAAA!"

All four girls looked up as Sakura came careening out of nowhere and crashed into the ground. Tayuya coughed as the impact kicked up a dust cloud around them. Sakura was laying on the ground, her eyes whirling around in swirls, "I...I think I've had enough for today..." she mumbled as Tayuya looked over her.

"That's probably a good thing," she said, "Cause guess what?"

"What?" Sakura asked.

Tayuya just grinned, "YOU GOT KNOCKED THE FUCK OUT!"

Ino and Tenten cracked up laughing as Sakura slumped while Hinata, holding in a giggle or two of her own, comforted her.

Tsunade chuckled as she walked over to the battered group of girls, "Well, you've all done well for today, girls, I'm impressed."

Sakura righted herself and sat up, "Yeah, but we've all got a long way to go before we're up to your level," the rosette sighed, "We're still getting thrashed."

"Well, of course you are," Tsunade said, smiling, "I've had years of experience as far as combat goes, so my strength is way out of your league."

Tayuya smirked, "Yeah, then what's Pinky's deal?" She asked, jerking her thumb at the girl in question, "She's got all of us beat in brute strength, and her chakra control's almost as good as mine."

"Sakura, as a civilian, has a very strong bone structure, and since she was from a civilian family, her chakra levels have always been low," Tsunade said, looking down at the rosette, "Most of the time, a civilian turned shinobi has very good chakra control because they start out with small reserves, and build them up over time, thus leading to manageable levels as time goes on. Her muscles mass has something more to do with her strength as well. She has a rare type of muscle build that naturally channels chakra throughout her body, making her punches and kicks stronger than average. Couple that with shinobi training and she has at least low Jonin strength."

Tayuya looked at the pink-haired kunoichi as she finally recovered enough to sit up, "Huh, no wonder she hits like a like a ton of bricks," she commented, thinking back to the time she'd knocked her front door down.

Tsunade chuckled, "That, and she has a temper," she said approvingly, "Now, you girls run along, and rest up for tomorrow's training session."

Sakura stood up and dusted herself off, "Thanks for the lesson, Tsunade-sama." She chirped happily.

Ino looked at her in confusion, "You're energetic all of a sudden," she said, frowning, "What's got into you?"

Sakura placed her hands behind her back, grinning at her rival, "I've got a date with Sasuke-kun!" She said in a teasing sing-song voice to annoy the platinum blonde, which it did, extensively.

"Wha-?! Are you kidding me!?" Ino roared.

Tayuya frowned as the pair began to argue over the Uchiha, ignoring them for the most part, becoming distracted once again. Tenten rose and dusted herself off, heading toward the village. Tayuya got up and followed after her. "Uh, hey, Tenten, you mind helping me out?"

Tenten turned to the girl curiously, "Sure, what's going on?"

Tayuya frowned, trying to think of a way to voice her problems, "Well...it's...it's about Naruto."

Tenten gave the girl a look, then smirked, "Ho? What's the matter, did he do something you didn't like...or something you did like?"

Tayuya scowled at her, "It's not that, ya bun-head!" She groused, crossing her arms in front of her chest in annoyance, "I just...don't know that much about him and, well, I wanna know more, okay?"

Tenten thought for a moment, taking in the girl's body language for a second, and grinned, "He's a total loser!"

"THE HELL!" Tayuya roared, "No he's not!"

"Got'cha!" Tenten yelled, grinning, "You do like him!"

"Did not, do not!" Tayuya snapped forming an 'X' with her arms, "Can you please be fuckin' serious here!"

Tenten giggled, "Okay, okay, sorry," she smiled, "Man, you sure are defensive of the guy."

"We're family, right?" Tayuya shrugged, "Isn't a family supposed to stick up for one another? Now stop changing the fucking subject."

The brunette grinned a little, "Well, he is a loser, that's for sure," she said, holding up her hand when the the irate ginger was about to have another go at her, "But, that's only because he really hates losing." She said, which made the girl stop short and give a little smile, "Honestly, Naruto and I were bunk mates back at the orphanage. Back then, he wasn't really well liked at all. None of the adults would let the other kids play with him, even though he seemed a little timid back then. I was only made to bunk with him because there was so little room, but he was a real sweetie back then, too."

"How's that?"

The girl gave a small smile, "Back then, after the attack on the village, it took a long time for things to recover." She said, thinking back on her childhood, "Even after a few years our forces in shinobi were still halved, so the village was always on high alert because even our Genin teams were all out on missions to make money for the village. Food and clothing were hard to get for orphans like us, but whenever there wasn't enough to go around, Naruto, even though he was so small, and barely got anything to eat himself, always shared with me." She said, frowning as it all started coming back to her in waves. Her eyes actually began to water, "I always looked at him like my little brother back then...but I was adopted, and never saw him again after that until I started hearing rumors about a blond academy student causing a commotion. I knew it had to be him. He loved his jokes, and never hesitated to pull one when he saw a chance."

"In all honesty, I wanted to find him and find out how he had been since we parted all those years ago," Tenten continued, sighing, "But I was kept so busy with my life in becoming a kunoichi, and working in my dad's forge that I never got the chance, and when we finally saw each other again, he didn't even know who I was." She shrugged, "That's the way it goes, I guess. It hurt, but after I saw that he'd survived so long on his own, I was happy knowing that, and by just how strong he was. He put me to shame in the Chunin exams. Hell, he put all of us to shame. I don't think I've ever seen anyone land a hit on Neji like he did, or run him through his paces unless it was Lee he was fighting."

Tayuya nodded as the entered the village together, "Didn't he have anyone he was close to when he was a kid?" She asked, frowning, "I mean, I was practically raised by Orochimaru, and even I had a friend."

Tenten shrugged, "I know he's always been close to the Ichiraku family that runs the ramen stand he eats at all the time," She said, which was obvious, given it was Naruto's favorite food. "And then there's Iruka sensei that taught him at academy. Matter of fact, I think it was Iruka that personally gave him his headband. And then there's...there was Lord Third Hokage," she sighed, frowning as the red-head stopped in her tracks, "Sorry, Tayuya, you probably already knew that, didn't you?"

Tayuya shook her head, "No...no I didn't..." she said, frowning and biting her lip, "This is bad...I helped Orochimaru...I basically killed - "

Tenten reached out and touched her shoulder, "You did what any shinobi would have done," she said, making her look at the brunette, "You had your orders, and you followed them, and believe me, anyone would have if you lived under that guy's rule."

"Still," Tayuya breathed out shakily, "Naruto might hate me for this."

The girl gave Tayuya a small smile, "Wow, you really do like him, don't you?"

Tayuya sighed, "That's the thing, Bunny...I don't know."

=x=

Some time during the evening as the sun was moving closer to the horizon, we find a pair of youngsters strolling out of a small theater, arm-in-arm, smiling, or in one case, smirking. "That was such a sad movie," Sakura sighed as she leaned on Sasuke's shoulder, "but thanks for taking me out tonight, Sasuke-kun, I really enjoyed it."

Sasuke shrugged, "It's the least I could do," he said, giving a small smile of his own, "Besides, I liked it, too. Too bad 'D' was technically the only one that survived in the end. Where do you wanna go next?"

"Not sure," the girl said, enjoying herself nonetheless, "I'm not all that hungry, but maybe we could grab a bite to eat?"

Sasuke agreed with her, and both ended up grabbing dango at the local stand.

In the beginning, Sasuke had felt extremely awkward when the two of the met up, but Sakura had, to his surprise, easily taken the lead, and suggested the movie. Now as the ate in companionable silence, he was beginning to feel slightly awkward again. They had met up in the middle of the village, away from Sakura's house.

A good thing, if one were to ask Sakura, because her parents weren't exactly thrilled about her little date with the Uchiha. Especially her father. She loved her father very much, but he had acted out of character from his usual self. When he found out that she was to go on a date with the young Uchiha, he had paled rather considerably. It was common knowledge now that Sasuke had left the village, and been brought back at the cost of several members of the village's Genin, some of which had been in horrendous shape, such as Neji and Choji. Knowing this, Kizashi had feared for his daughter's safety around the young Genin.

But, now that their date was ending, Sasuke was intending to meet with them as he walked her back home.

It was just a few blocks from her house that Sakura voiced her worries. Sasuke understood, but it was inevitable, and completely unavoidable. Now the pair stood outside of the Haruno residence. Sakura reached out, lacing her fingers through Sasuke's, "You sure you wanna do this?" She asked, frowning, a slight blush on her face, "There's still time to bolt?"

Sasuke shook his head, "If this is gonna work, then don't I need to do this?" He asked, sighing, "Besides, I've seen some horrifying things thanks to my brother, so I'm not gonna chicken out from meeting your family."

"Don't say I didn't warn you," Sakura sighed, reaching for the door. "Mom, Dad, I'm home!"

No sooner had see touched the door knob than the door burst open. "Sakura! I'm so glad you're - " A man all but roared as he burst out the door. The man was obviously Sakura's father, given the dulled pink hair styled into the shape of a cherry blossom. He looked half-crazed with worry, but all of that dropped from his face when he saw that his daughter wasn't alone. His normally warm, and caring features turned cold, "Oh, I see your teammate escorted you home."

"I wanted to meet with you," Sasuke spoke up, only slightly intimidated.

Kizashi snorted, and crossed his arms, "Shouldn't you have done that before taking my precious daughter out?" He asked with a frown as Sakura palmed her face with her free hand, "It's traditional for a young man calling on a young lady to ask permis-OHH!" The man was suddenly blasted out the door.

Sakura wisely pulled Sasuke down as her father was thrown over their heads by a well-placed kick to his lower back, sending him flying across the street. The attacker was none other than the man's own wife. Unlike her daughter, Mebuki Haruno was a caramel-blonde, but had the same fair skin that Sakura had. And it painfully obvious where Sakura had gotten her temper.

"Oh, Sakura-chan, you've brought your friend over!" She yelled enthusiastically, forgoing the fact that her husband was now across the street with his feet in the air, his head planted firmly in the ground. "Please, you must bring him in for tea!"

Sasuke looked over his shoulder at the prone Haruno, "Uh, shouldn't we - "

"Oh, Kizashi-kun will be fine," the man's wife tittered, ushering the two youngsters inside, "He's a shinobi after all."

Sasuke had a feeling that Kizashi Haruno's well-being had nothing to do with his being a shinobi, and everything to do with the fact that he was most likely used to being tossed around like that. Sasuke made himself a solemn vow that if he ever married, whether it be Sakura, or any other girl that might have caught his fancy, he would learn very quickly to never let his guard down when at home. Or else he would be in a wheelchair long before his senior years.

"Hey," Kizashi moaned from across the street, "Don't I have a say in this?"

Apparently not.

=x=

Tenten stepped out of the shower in her little apartment, toweling her hair dry. "Hmm, nothing like a nice hot shower after a day like this," she sighed as the day finally ended for her. Her and Tayuya's little talk had gone well enough, but the girl had still seemed unsure of herself when they parted. Still, it was a good thing that she'd gotten her worries out in the open. Tenten found that she liked the overly sensitive red-head a great deal once she got passed the fact that she had once been an enemy.

She had gone to the hospital right after they had parted to see how her teammates had been doing. Lee was still being treated for his injuries during the Chunin exams, and fighting against one of Tayuya's former teammates had only aggravated his symptoms. Neji...had been released. It also worked her nerves that he hadn't told her he'd been released, either.

'Not that I care,' she mentally grumbled as she wrapped the towel around herself, 'The stuck up prick can do what he likes.' So what if she'd been worried out of her mind when he was brought back and put in the ICU? Big deal. It wasn't as if she went to see him every day. Once or twice during the week had been good enough...or was it three?

She went to her bedroom and pulled on her favorite set pajamas, "Seriously, though, would it kill the guy to at least give me a heads-up about getting out?" She frowned when she sat on her bed, "I mean he had a huge gaping hole in his chest so close to his heart, and when he miraculously survives, and gets out, does he come and let me know? Of course not!"

She laid back across her bed, her arms splayed out on either side of her, "The next time I see that jerk, I'll -"

There was a knock at her door, "Tenten?"

Her head popped right up, "N-Neji?" She scrambled off the bed and hurried to the door.

Neji was standing there as she opened it, a bouquet of flowers in his hand, and a large blush across his face. "Er...hello, Tenten..."

"Hello yourself, " the girl said, eyeing the flowers, "Why didn't you tell me you were getting out today?"

"I didn't know," the young Hyuuga prodigy said truthfully, "Tsunade-sama just cleared me this morning, and, well I was talking with Hiashi-sama most of the day, and - "

"Stop," Tenten held up her hand, "I get it. Clan stuff...are those for me?" She asked, indicating the flowers he held, "Those aren't from Ino's flower shop, are they?"

Neji frowned, "No, they're not, I'm sorry to say," he said, absently scratching himself behind his head, "I wanted to get them from her, but she wouldn't stop asking me who they were for...I ended up picking these out of the family garden."

'Ino,' the girl thought with a role of her eyes as she took the flowers from him, giving them an appreciative sniff, "They're pretty...what's the occasion?"

"Do I need an occasion?" Neji asked, dodging the question.

"Giving someone flowers can mean a lot of things, Neji," Tenten stated, giggling slightly, "Mostly get well presents, or saying you're sorry about something. I'm not sick, and unless you're going to apologize for worrying me to death, then you really had no reason to bring these to me at - " she looked at the wall clock, "Nine o'clock at night."

Neji frowned when he heard the time, "I...suppose it is rather late, so I'll...just be going..."

Tenten rolled her eyes as the young man turned to leave, and reached out, trapping him with her arms around his neck, "Neji Hyuuga," she said, her lips dangerously close to his own, "You are, without a doubt, the most infuriating boy I've ever met outside Naruto Uzumaki, but I know you're not dense, so if you don't kiss me right now, I swear I'll start dating Lee."

There was no hesitation as his arms went around her, his left hand taking up position behind her head as he pulled her against him. Sloppy as it was, it was progress, Tenten had to relent that fact. The one way to get her way with Neji had always been to say it would either be him, or Lee. And it was a contest that Neji was not soon to lose.

A dreamily little smile was on the girl's lips as they parted from the red-faced Hyuuga, "Not bad," she grinned up at him, "What are your plans for tomorrow?"

"I-I was told to rest, and - "

"Good." Neji yelped as Tenten pulled him into her apartment, slamming the door behind him.

=x=

Tayuya lay staring up at the ceiling of her room, wide awake from her talk with Tenten earlier. She'd gotten home late without really meaning to, and found that Naruto was no where to be found inside the large house. Thinking that he was off somewhere with Jiraiya, she'd fixed herself a simple meal of cup ramen from Naruto's huge stock, and decided to soak off the day in the hot springs.

But even that couldn't ease the tension she was feeling. Not in her body, no. Her mind was racing over what she'd found out. Naruto did indeed have very few he could call close. And she had aided in killing one of those precious few.

She rolled over onto her side, facing the pale light filtering there the rice paper doors, 'What would he think of me?' She sighed, remembering that day like it was yesterday. She'd watched that incredible battle between three Hokages, and her former master. Hiruzen Sarutobi had been, in her opinion, an amazing shinobi. Even when he had been pierced through with Kusanagi, he had managed to inflict such a grievous wound on Orochimaru that he was now almost an invalid.

And it was that same man that had meant so much to Naruto that she had watched die at the hands that creature. From Tenten she had found out that Naruto spent more time with the aged Hokage than he did with Iruka Umino, often visiting with each other when he was younger, or getting chased through the village after one of his pranks.

Which was how he'd come to befriend the former Hokage's grandson. 'It must've been like what Genosuke-niisan was to me.' She thought, thinking back on her brother-figure. He had been the only person in her youth that acknowledged her, and made her feel like she was still human at times. 'And I helped take him away from him.' She thought as she felt tears beginning to sting her eyes, 'How am I supposed to make that right?'

Knowing that she wasn't going to get any sleep, she kicked the blanket off and stood, moving to slide the screen door open, and sat down on the patio. Looking out across the compound, she saw just how greatly the Uzumaki compound had blossomed back to life under Naruto's tender care. Where once the the are was nothing but crumbling houses overrun with grass, and vines stood what could have been a small village.

Still, with only the two of them, the compound felt empty.

Emptiness was nothing new to her. Her whole life had been as such since being taken in by Orochimaru. She hadn't even known what her reasons behind living had been save for the fear of dying by Orochimaru's twisted hands.

Now that she had been away from him for so long, she was starting to feel more of what she thought a normal kunoichi was supposed to feel like. 'I'm...lonely...' She tucked her legs up against her chest, sighing, 'I used to like being alone, though...what the hell's happening to me?' She looked up as the moon passed behind a few stray clouds.

'Naruto...he's like the sun...' she smiled as the pale light filtered down on her once more, 'He's always so warm and caring, even towards me.' She felt her tears spill over as she buried her face in her knees. "I don't wanna lose him."

Meanwhile...

"So the seal removal is going to take place tomorrow?" Tsunade asked as she sat with Jiraiya at one of their local bars, "Are you sure he's ready for it?"

Jiraiy nodded as he took a drink from his glass, "He's as ready as he'll ever be." He said, pouring himself another round, "Waiting anymore would just be a waste of time. For all we know, Orochimaru could be on his way right now to try and take control of Sasuke, or Tayuya." He said, taking another long drink, "We'd like to take care of Anko first, and then start on Tayuya. After that's done, we'll see how Naruto's fairing, and take a shot at Sasuke if he's feeling up to it. I've also been asked to bring that Hyuuga boy from the Branch family with us. Naruto said something about helping him, too."

Tsunade shook her head, "I'll see what I can do about that, because I think I know what he's planning," she said, looking down at her own drink, "I just hope this works."


So sorry again for taking so long. Either way, thanks to all those that have held onto this story for so long, and waited patiently. I now have a clear vision of where this story will go, though it'll be cliche...what the hell am I saying! There's no such thing as cliche on this site because it's all already been done twice at least! HA!

Also, given that I'm showing so many different points of view, the chapters are possibly going to be longer, so be prepared for that.

Please leave a review!
