Kushina POV-
It had been around 2 weeks since i was kidnapped by those komu Shinobi and everything had now turned back to how it used to be.
By that i mean me being a outcast
Also ever since bringing me back home i hadn't seen Minato anywhere but i figured he was just on a mission or something like that
I was currently on my Way to a ramen shop not far from where i was Living
I absolutely love ramen!
My friend mikoto tell me it isn't a balanced diet but i just can't Help myself!
I walked into the little Street shop and asked for my usual
Suddenly Another person ran into the little shop
He was panting and seemed panicked
-it was Minato!
"P-Please! Hide me!" He panted out
None of us knew what was happening but Ao, the owner of the ramen shop just pointed to behind the cashier and Minato practicly jumped behind it just as Another person barged in the shop
He was a tall middleaged man With Black eyes, long White hair pulled back in a long ponytail and he wore traditional Japanese clothing
"Excuse me.. have you seen my student? He's around this tall, wears a gray jacket. He has blue eyes a spily blonde hair that almost hides his shinobi headband?" He told us and messured the hight with his hand.
I figured there must've been a reason Minato was running away so i lied and Said "i know a guy by the desciption but i havn't seen him in weeks.. Sorry.."
"Oh.. Well Sorry to have bothered you" he Said and ran out again shouting the name MINATO at the top of his lungs
Minato popper up next to my still panting a little, probably from running away from that guy
"You have No idea how grateful i am! Thank you Kushina!" He Thanked me, Boeing his head witch just made me embarresed
"Ehm.. No problem...see it as payback!"
"Payback?"
He looked at me confused, but After a couple of seconds a light bulp went on inside his brain, and he gave a small laugh
"Anyway! what was that about? Wasn't he your sensei?"
"Yeah.. i've been on what you might Call a Camp... i've trained with him none stop these past two weeks.. and now i just can't anymore!"
"You're giving up?"
"Not exacly.. i'm taking a break... or he'll kill me! Litteraly.."
"Aren't you exacteraging a little??"
"He litteraly threw me off a cliff.."
I tried to imagne that and the image made me laugh loudly
OoOoOoOoOoOo
Minato POV-
I ended up joining Kushina for lunch since i was there anyways.
Ramen wasn't my favorite food but i didn't diskutere it, not at all.. i just din't eat it often
While eating me and Kushina talked in between our bites
"Sooooo... are we friends now?" Kushina asked kinda out of the blue. She seemed shy and unsure when she asked, probably scared that i would answer No or mock her. After all that's what she was used to
"Yeah! Of course!" I Said with a Big grin. She looked at me with a shocked expression but it quickly turning into one of happiness
OoOoOoOoOoOo
We ate and afterwards decided to hang out since she had nothing to do and i just wanted to, but i had to br carefull not to let Jiraiya-sensei fond me. Cause If He does- at the thought i couldn't Help but shiver
"Something wrong?" Kushina asked me, she probably noticed my shivering, however i couldn't come up with a good excuse so i just answered "N-Nothing!"
Kushina POV-
I hadn't spent much time with Minato, but it was enough to make me regret all my past actions and decisions regarding him.
In the academy i never liked him and always sid my best to push him away, despite than he was one of the only ones in the class that didn't Bully me. Scratch that! He was one of the only ones in the intere academy that didn't bully me
And yet i was always rude to him and even sometimes blamed him for things that he had nothing to do with- like the time i was attacked in the cherry blosdum field and i just asumed that he agreed with my attackers, i didn't even hear his part of the story
"Minato?"
"Yeah?"
"Do you remember the time i was attacked?... in the cherry blossom field?"
"Yeah.."
"Well.. i never heard your part of the story... i just asumed that you hated me like everyone else... i'm Sorry!"
"Hehe don't worry about it!"
"What were you actually doing there?"
"Watching. I overhead they were planning to attack you... i thought i should be there to When it was time to get the guys to the hospital! Luckyly you went easy on them, but from what i could see just beacsuse you were surprised... it was really hard to watch when you began crying though..."
Third person POV-
Kushina began blushing just a little bit by the though that Minato thought that she was strong, and glad by the fact that he also knew she could handle herself
-he also told her that in the forest, but now when she wasn't exhausted it held more meaning to her
"You really didn't like me back then did Ya?" Minato Said, it wasn't sad or hurt like one might have expected, No. He was laughing and smiling brightly
'What an optimist!' Kushina couldn't Help but think
"I'm Sorry about that..." she apologized to him
"Don'y worry about it!" Minato Said with his usual Big grin
