I told Takashi everything. He seemed to understand the situation. "So he's got permanent amnesia, does he?"
"I.. think so." I replied.
Takashi adjusted his glasses, and stared at a picture frame on the counter, of himself, Auntie Megumi and baby Kabuto. "No matter.." He mumbled. I could tell it really bothered him - it bothered me after all. "Thanks for telling me, Setsuki. Your fight against him was impressive too."
"You saw it?"
"Of course. I was in the crowd.." He said, rolling his eyes. "You don't think I'd miss out do you?"
I smiled. Suddenly a knock on the door disturbed our conversation. Takashi stood up. "It'd be for you." He said. I nodded and answered the door. Lee.
I was about to say something, when he raised a finger to my lips to silence me. "Setsuki-chan! I have something to show you!"
I blinked. "Oh okay." I called out to Takashi that I was leaving, then Lee took hold of my wrist and lead me away. I kind of wanted to hold hands again, but he didn't seem to want to..
Lee took me to a nearby park then slowed down to a walk rather than a jog. He seemed to look around for something.
"Oh.. I guess it flew away." He said.
"Flew away?"
"It was a beautiful bird, it was perched just here- oh! Is that, Daisuke-kun..?" Lee looked over to Daisuke who was on the ground, and looked like he was crouching. I tilted my head.
"Yeah, that's Daisuke-kun.. what happened with you tw-"
"He looks hurt! Come on, Setsuki-chan!" Lee dragged me over to Daisuke, who looked like he was in pain. He was holding his knee.
"Daisuke-kun!" I knelt down. "Are you okay?" I asked. He looked up at me with the biggest puppy eyes.
"I scraped my knee.." He whined. I blinked and giggled. "What's so funny.."
"No pain, no gain, Daisuke-kun!" I stood up, giving him a thumbs up. Daisuke sweatdropped and Lee facepalmed. I tilted my head at their behaviour.
"Er.. yeah, you're right, Setsuki-chan!" Daisuke stood up, cringed then fell over wailing.
"D-Daisuke-kun?" I questioned. He held his knee.
"I broke my leg in the last few seconds! Owww!" He cried. My eyes widened.
"Oh no!" I helped Daisuke up.
"W-We must get a medic!" Lee exclaimed. I nodded.
"Daisuke-kun! Get on my back! I'll carry you!" I said.
"No! You wait here, Setsuki-chan! I will fetch a medic for you, if you move Daisuke-kun around too much it could break another bone!" Lee exclaimed I gasped and dropped Daisuke.
"I am sorry! I didn't know!" Daisuke cringed from hitting his head on the ground. "I'll stay here and make sure he doesn't break another bone!"
Lee nodded and sprinted off. Daisuke seemed to sigh of relief. Daisuke suddenly held my hand.
"Setsuki-chan! Please make the pain go away!"
"What do you want me to do?" I asked.
".. How about a hug? Maybe a hug could take my mind off the pain!"
"Okay!" I pulled Daisuke into a hug. He hugged back.
It lasted for a while, when I realized.
"Lee-san's not coming back, is he?" My eyes narrowed at Daisuke. He gulped.
"W-Well he should be!" He exclaimed. I thought they were up to something. "That bastard, if he's left me t-"
I hit Daisuke over the head. "Don't swear!" I huffed. He pouted.
"Sorry.."
"About earlier.. what happened between you and Lee-san?"
"Huh? Oh, uh.. we just had a man talk!" He said.
"Man talk?" I asked, suspicious.
"Yeah!"
"Sorry for the interruption." We looked up and saw Gai-sensei.
"Gai-sensei!"
"What's he doing here.." Daisuke muttered under his breath.
"I couldn't help but seeing you two here! Setsuki, where's Lee? I've been searching everywhere for him!"
"Oh, he's gone to find a m-"
"He's training!" Daisuke quickly cut me off. I gave him a questioning look.
"Huuuuh? So soon? I just checked all around our training area, he wasn't there..."
"He's practising his camouflage!" Daisuke said.
Gai-sensei clicked his fingers. "Is that right!"
"No." I said. He blinked. Daisuke looked at me with wide eyes. "Lee-san's gone to get a medic!"
"A medic?"
"Yeah! Because Daisuke-kun broke his leg!" I exclaimed. Gai-sensei gave Daisuke a questioning look.
"U-uuh.. y-yeah.." Daisuke stuttered, gritting his teeth.
"DAAAISUKE-KUN!" Lee's voice came shouting. We all faced him as he ran up to us. "Setsuki-chan! Daisuke-kun! Good news!"
"What?"
"Akamaru had puppies!" Lee exclaimed, seeming like he was trying to distract Gai-sensei.
"REALLY!?" I squealed. Daisuke choked on his phlegm and Gai-sensei scratched his chin.
Lee half nodded and kept staring at Gai-sensei for his reaction.
"Lee... you realize that Akamaru is a male, right?" Gai-sensei said.
"So? No one, man or animal should be held back from doing what they want to do!" Lee exclaimed. Gai-sensei shook his head, rubbing his forehead.
"That's right, Gai-sensei! I wanna go see the puppies!" I exclaimed, bouncing excitedly.
"Setsuki. Lee." We both look up at Gai-sensei who was frowning. "Where do babies come from?"
Daisuke choked again. "What?! Where'd that come from!? Why would you ask such a-"
"That is easy!" Lee exclaimed, talking over me as I was about to answer. He lifted a finger as if proving a point. "When a man and a woman are deeply deeply in love..."
Gai-sensei nodded, staring at his student intently. "Mhm. Mhm..?"
"And they enter the bedroom one night.."
Gai-sensei nodded again. "Mhm?"
"They go to sleep!"
Gai-sensei gave a hesitant nod. "M..hm..."
"Then during that night.."
"Mhm."
"A stalk comes from the sky and delivers a baby on their doorstep!" Lee exclaimed, grinning. Gai-sensei didn't nod. He frowned, then faced me.
"Yup! Every word is true!" I exclaimed.
"Idiots!" Gai-sensei gushed, he punched Lee across the face and I leaned back as he swung at me.
"What're you doing!?" Daisuke questioned. I thought Lee would've had better reflexes to avoid Gai-sensei's punches by now, but apparently not – I do.
Lee whined as he laid on the ground holding his cheek.
"You both lack the education! You should know these things at this age! I know I did! I knew all about it when I was your age!" Gai-sensei trailed off into a mumble for his next sentence. "That was entirely Kakashi's fault when Jiraiya first published Icha Icha.."
"You sicken me.." Daisuke grumbled.
"What does he mean, Daisuke-kun?" I asked, looking down at my teammate.
"Okay okay. I'll tell you both." Daisuke said. Gai-sensei folded his arms and listened as well. Daisuke stood up, made two clones, and transformed one into a woman closely resembling Shizune, and the other into a man, similar to Gai-sensei except with a moustache.
"Ooooh! A play!" Lee clapped excitedly and sat up straight. I sat down beside Lee, grinning also. Gai-sensei sat behind us, his legs crossed and his arms folded, examining Daisuke closely.
Daisuke cleared his throat. "We call it, the birds and the bees." He said. Both Lee and I nodded.
The clones grinned and held hands. "Firstly, as you mentioned, Lee, they fall in love."
The male clone leaned forward and pecked the female one on the lips. "A-"
"Question!" Lee raised his hand straight into the air. Daisuke frowned.
"... What?"
"Do couples always kiss just like that?" Lee asked.
Daisuke frowned. "There's variations of kissing.."
"Can you show us?" Lee asked.
Daisuke's face went pale. ".. A-Another time.." Lee lowered his hand, and continued to listen. "ANYWAY. As I was saying, after they fall in love.. and have been together long enough to decide they want a child.."
"Shizuneko. I am ready to expand our family, how do you feel about a child?" The male clone asked.
The female giggled. "Oh~ Gaiton, of course!"
"These names sound familiar.." Gai-sensei muttered behind us, narrowing his eyes at the clone.
"After it's decided by both parties, they get to work on producing the baby." Daisuke explained.
"Question!" Lee shouted, raising his hand again. Daisuke frowned at him, waiting for him to speak. "How does one, 'Produce' a baby?" Lee asked, tilting his head.
"I'm getting to that!" Daisuke growled. "Right, the firs-"
"I am sorry for interrupting!" Lee said, then lowered his hand.
"... Firstly, the couple go to the bedroom.. or wherever... wherever they are alone, then they get naked."
"I-in front of each other?!" Lee questioned, stealing the words right from my mouth.
"YES! IN FRONT OF EACH OTHER!" Daisuke shouted. The clones started to strip, I closed my eyes. "Then they do what is called 'Sex'."
"Sex?" Lee asked.
"Yes.. and to do that, the man inserts his-"
Gai-sensei coughed loudly, choking on something. "Sorry."
".. into her-"
Gai-sensei coughed again, then cleared his throat. I dared to open my eye and I saw the clones attached to each other, smoke surrounding their private areas, but their lower areas were touching. It creeped me out. "Must have something in my throat!" Gai-sensei chuckled. "Continue."
"... And then, when they reach the climax of the moment, the woman's eggs will be fertilised, therefore she will become p-"
"A woman has eggs?" I asked, confused.
"Inside of her." Daisuke gestured his his gut area. I looked down at my gut. ".. Anyway, she gets pregnant, and 9 months later she gives birth to a beautiful baby! Or two.. or three... sometimes even four!" Daisuke exclaimed.
The female clone's stomach grew out like she had eaten 50 bowls of ramen.
"DID SHE EAT A BABY?!" I questioned. Lee screamed.
"SHE ATE A BABY!?"
Daisuke facepalmed. "NO! SHE DID NOT EAT A BABY! THE BABY GROWS INSIDE OF HER!" Daisuke exclaimed. Both Lee and I screamed and hugged each other tightly.
"SHE ATE THE BABY AND IT GREW INSIDE OF HER!" Lee cried.
"I DON'T LIKE THIS ANYMORE!" I cried. Daisuke lowered his head.
"No. No. No. NO! Listen! The fertilised eggs DEVELOP INTO A BABY!"
Lee and I blinked. "Like a transformation jutsu?" I asked. Daisuke made a face like he was going to give up.
"Yeah.. yeah like a transformation jutsu." He grumbled.
"OHHHHH!" Lee and I calmed down and sat normally again.
Just as Daisuke was about to continue his lecture, Lee raised his hand. "Question!" He did not wait for a response from Daisuke. "What happens when the woman 'Gives birth'?"
".. I'm getting to that. Now this is the most painful part.. for the girl. Because she has to poop the baby out."
"Poop it out?"
"Wrong!" Gai-sensei spoke up. "It comes out the other hole!"
"It.. does?" Daisuke asked. Both Lee and I displayed blank expressions. The female clone started to scream and suddenly a baby poofed out between her legs. I was scarred for life. "Well.. anyway, that's how the baby is made."
"... Are you sure, Daisuke-kun? What about the stalk? Where is the stalk?" Lee asked.
"Idiot! The stalk doesn't exist!"
Both Lee and I gasp. "Uncle Takashi lied!" I cried.
"A-About the kissing.." Lee mentioned. Daisuke glared at him. "Can you show us now?"
Daisuke's eye twitched, he looked at me and got a smug look. "Okay, but I'll need a volunteer."
"OHHH! ME! PICK ME! DAISUKE-KUN! ME ME ME ME!" Lee was bouncing up and down eagerly.
"HELL NO!" Daisuke shouted. "Setsuki-chan, why don't you be my volunteer?"
"But.. Lee-san asked the question, not me! It's only fair that he's the volunteer!" I replied. Gai-sensei grew a smug grin.
"Don't forget I'm still here." Gai-sensei said, flashing a smile. Daisuke made nauseous noises.
"NO WAY OLD MAN! I AM NOT KISSING YOU!" Daisuke shouted, holding his stomach. Gai-sensei got an anime vein.
"WHO ARE YOU CALLING OLD?!" Gai-sensei roared. Daisuke froze .
"N-No one.. no one.." He stuttered.
"Do I still get to be the volunteer, Daisuke-kun?" Lee asked. I grinned at Daisuke.
"Yes! Lee-san's the volunteer!" I cheered. Daisuke grimaced, and unintentionally nodded his head. Lee shot up from the ground and stood in front of Daisuke eagerly.
"I can't believe I'm really going to do this..." Daisuke glared at Lee's blank expression. "Look, Lee, after this there are no feelings between us, got it? I know we're experimenting with being friends and all... but this DOESN'T mean we're friends with benefits! Got it!?"
Lee saluted Daisuke, not really sure what he meant. "Yes sir!"
"And you are not to breathe a word of this to ANYONE! Got it!?"
"Yes sir!"
Daisuke took a deep breath. "I can't believe I'm going to do this.." He breathed.
"Do not worry, Daisuke-kun! I am sure we can get through this together!" Lee hoisted a thumbs up to Daisuke's face. "We can experience our first kisses, together! Like two blossoming buds of youth, transforming into a beautiful flower together!"
The scene made my heart melt. His words were.. beautiful.
Daisuke tensed and put his hand on Lee's shoulder, half closing his eyes. "Okay.." He took a deep, shaky breath. "This ones called a peck.." Daisuke leaned forward and pecked Lee's lips. Lee blinked.
"Peck.." Lee leaned in closer and did the same to Daisuke.
"Th-the... next one is called the.. single-lip kiss.." Daisuke said, his face was turning red. He leaned his head forward and gripped Lee's lower lip with his own lips then tugged on it slightly. Lee seemed to get a shiver down his spine. Lee's hand made it's way up around Daisuke's shoulders, making Daisuke tense majorly. Lee returned this kiss to Daisuke, tugging on his lower lip. Lee closed his eyes. I couldn't take my eyes away from it.
Daisuke never said anything, he just closed his eyes and pushed forwards causing their lips to clash, and Daisuke began to almost try and suck the air out of Lee's mouth. Lee's cheeks went bright red, but he returned the motion. Daisuke's hand on Lee's shoulder snaked it's way down and around Lee's waist.
"They're very good at it." Gai-sensei mentioned. I caught myself drooling and quickly wiped away the saliva before anyone saw it.
Daisuke pulled back momentarily to speak. "N-ngh.. this one is.. the French kiss.."
"F-French..?" Lee said ever so softly, without opening his eyes. Daisuke caused their lips to meet again, and slowly snaked his tongue inside of Lee's mouth, causing a shiver down Lee's spine. Lee's eyes opened half way in surprise, his face was as red as a ripe tomato.
Daisuke wrapped his spare arm around Lee's waist also, and pulled him in close. Lee's hand lifted to Daisuke's hair and he curled the strands with his fingers before closing his eyes.
The two made various moaning sounds, my heart was racing while watching. Suddenly, Lee became aggressive, his other hand cupped Daisuke's cheek and he pulled Daisuke in tightly, the kiss became rough and unrestrained.
It lasted what seemed like forever, when Daisuke leaned back and trailed his lips around Lee's jaw line. Lee made a quiet submissive sound, and it made my spine shiver. Daisuke and Lee seemed to be out of breath, neither of them opened their eyes. Daisuke's mouth trailed small kisses down the side of Lee's jawline to his earlobe. Lee tensed, unsure. Daisuke continued to lower head head, down Lee's neck, but stopped at the turtle-neck of the suit.
Daisuke suddenly widened his eyes and pulled back from Lee, his face even redder than a ripe tomato.
Daisuke wiped his mouth and coughed, and Lee just stood there dumbfounded. I've never seen Lee's eyes so wide before. There was a long silence, apart from Daisuke's choking and gagging of course.
