After the events of the last chapter, naruto and haku began feeling more comfortable with their relationship and started doing more cute coupley things. Of which include naruto occasionally sneacking up to haku and grabbing him from the behind. Which resulted in haku sometimes baonking him on the head. This chapter is just a PRE warm up to the next. Like a little short 'What happened before' scene. Enjoy.
Naruto was in the middle of packing his bag before he went off to train with master jariyah*(*spelling?). He stuffed a couple shirts into his pack and looked around for other things he might need. Haku sat on the other side of the bed watching him place an entire box full of instant ramen in his bag. "Are you sure you dont want me to go with you? Ive improved of my healing techniques, and you never know when you'll need a medical healer." Naruto balled up a few pairs of socks and stuffed them into a side pocket. "For the last time, ill be ok. And if you did come, you'll just be a distraction.
Also I couldn't bare it if something happened to you while you were with me." Haku crossed his arms. "You know perfectly well that I can take care of myself." Naruto paused his packing and got up to sit next to haku on the bed. He placed his hand on hakus soft cheek and turned his face towards his own.
"I know that. Its just that I need to do this by myself. If I can remember that your here waiting for me then It'll make me work even harder so I can come back quickly." Naruto lightly kissed haku's forehead which haku growled at worriedly. Naruto stood up and gradded his frog shaped wallet from the table. He placed it in his bag and zipped it up. Haku watched as he grabbed several items from around the room and dumped them in his backpack.
"I understand. I just...ill miss you." Haku played with his naruto colored beaded bracelet on his wrist and rubbed one of the orange beads. Naruto looked up and spoke in a soft tone. "Ill miss you too. But don't worry, you still have your bracelet to remember me by." Haku looked at the piece of jewelry in his wrist and sighed. "I guess." Naruto clipped the top of his pack shut and placed it on his back. He wanted to bring more stuff but haku told him before that it was too much and he had to put some things back. Naruto walked to the door and haku stood up to follow him.
Naruto placed his hand on the doorknob but before he turned to open it he stopped to turn towards his lover. He stepped towards haku, grabbed his chin with his hand, and gave him a long gentile kiss. They passionately kissed one another for the final time before naruto headed out. Haku held narutos lips in his own for one final time before they seperated and gave each other a tight hug goodbye.
Haku wispered in to naruto's ear. "I love you, come back to me in one piece okay?" Naruto gave him one last peck on the cheek and released him. "I love you too, and I will. Dont worry!" He turned the doorknob and walked out of the exit, letting the door slam behind him. Haku smiled and lowered his head. "He's going to over do it again isn't he."
