Please... forgive.. me..

Chapter 2

Obito POV

Minato walked up to me with a stunned expression. I could tell he was having a hard time understanding how I was here,"Hey... long time no see." I smiled nervously.
"You're... alive...?" He sounded sad, happy, and very surprised.
"Yea.. i am. I would've come back sooner if I got stronger faster, but I couldn't."
"Im just glad you're here now.." he put his hand on my shoulder, "you did the best you could." My expression molded into a saddened look.
"I wish I could've at least told you guys I was alive."
"But you couldn't and that's ok, so stop worrying about the past and worry about the present. Kakashi is in a lot of pain because of your sharingon and rin is a new jinjuriki. I'd worry about them first." I nodded and walked with him into the woods. The backup squads were following us with a medic helping kakashi.
When we were done scouting for a location. we found a spot for camp. I gently set Rin down against a tree. I sat down next to her trying to relax my body, "Obito.."
"Y-yes.." I said nervously.
"I want you to tell me everything." This was the most serious I have ever heard my sensai, so I did the same.
"Ok, where do I start" I took a quick minute to think. "Whatever I tell you, you have to believe it. If you don't none of this will make sense. You have to trust that I am telling the truth, you know I would never lie to you." he looked at me surprised and nodded hesitantly. "Ok, so after I got crushed I woke up in a very dark place. to be honest I thought i was dead at first but I still felt a lot of pain therefore I couldn't be dead," I paused because I saw kakashi's eyes flicker open, but I continued. "I didn't know there was someone with me in this place but there was. He saved me and to this day I still don't really know why. Especially since i was so weak madara wouldn't have any real use for me-"
minato interrupted.
"Madara?! I know you said I would't believe this but that's down right impossible. Are you sure this wasn't anyone else acting like him.."
I sighed,
"Minato. I can assure you he was madara uchiha. He was so old he was living off of a statue that created chakra for him. He kept saying he saved me to complete his work but I wanted no part in it. A while later I got strong enough to start walking. When I did he created these puppets to watch over me and help me train." I took off my cloak to reveal my half white body. "This is madara's creation. During his last battle with hashirama he took some of his hair which contained his DNA. When madara fled the battle he found a mysterious statue full of chakra and life. He merged the hashirama cells with this statue and it created a white clay like substance. Madara played around with this clay and discovered that when paired with chakra it can make a living organism. It can make up any bone, organ, or sense. The only thing it cannot do is create fake eyes. We call these Hashirama cells. He used the hashirama cells to create two personnel to watch over me and take care of me while madara mostly slept. The next couple of weeks they started making me do physical therapy. Their main purpose was to teach me how to hold onto the cells better with chakra. Even though they were trying to make me stronger they weren't afraid to hurt me, and they never stopped pushing me no matter how much pain I was in. All they wanted to do with me was to be a new madara uchiha to fulfil his plan. But I didn't want too, so I just kept training with them so I could become as strong and escape faster. Despite my efforts  I was still late. Like always..."
"Obito, stop, you're better than that and you know it. If you weren't here tonight rin would've gotten kidnapped and Kakashi would've gotten killed. If you think you didn't help then that's your mistake." My heart pumped as he talked, I felt like I was his son. Like he was a father looking over his son.

Minato interrupted my thoughts, "You know, she's really missed you, and since she's a new jinjuriki, she needs a body guard. Can I put you responsible for that position? You'd have to be with her 24/7." My eyes shot down.
Why did he say it like that?
I felt my cheeks getting hot and put my hand over my face.
I haven't felt this way in forever.
I could hear a chuckle out of the blond as I snorted. Already embarrassed kakashi started laughing with him.
"Stop!" I yelled at them.
"sorry, but it's been a year and you're still this shy?" Kakashi said while coughing because he laughed to hard.
"Haha! deserved!" I made an evil expression as he shot me a pissed look.
Looking back at Rin, she was resting her head against the trunk of the tree sleeping. I quickly grabbed my cloak and pulled her head back. Carefully I slipped it under her to create a pillow, "Look, it's been a year since I've been with you guys. So, yes, I'm gonna be a bit shy." I rolled my eyes, "But I have changed, so don't expect this Obito forever." I smiled.
Slowly absorbing the information I had just spoke; I realized the maturity leap I took over the course of this year. I was proud of myself to say the least.
They're right, I shouldn't be this shy still.
"You're right Obito, you have grown, and we can see that. I can see that. I don't want to put you in this position to embarrass you. It's because I genuinely think you have proven yourself worthy of this duty. I can say within a few hours of meeting you I trust no one else to watch over her." My blush got more intense, but not because I was shy, but because I have never felt this important before.
"You really think I should watch over a new jinjuriki...?"
"I don't think so, I know so."
I looked at her.
I'd do anything for you to be safe.
"I'll do it." Minato smiled at my answer.
"I knew you would."

The sun was going down and everyone headed to their tents.
"Hey, obito." An ANBU member walked up to me.
"What is it."
"So Rin is a new jinchuriki right?"
"Yea, why?"
"She got sealed to destroy the leaf village did she not?"
"Yes she did, but when she died the seal broke. The only possible explanation I can give right now is that Isobu is staying in her at will. I do not know the logistics at the moment but I will give updates as I can."
"Just be careful, alright." I nodded as he walked away.
People are actually respecting me?
That's a feeling I have never felt before. I stood there for a few seconds in disbelief. I took a deep breath before I headed to rins tent. I poked my head through the entrance and saw a meak little medical nin.
"How is she?" I sat by Rin feeling weak at the sight of her motionless body.
"Good, luckily she didn't get hurt by the transformation. You on the other hand don't look as good."
"O-oh well I'm fine. It doesn't hurt, really."
"If your cuts get infected it will be a whole lot worse-"
"I said I'm fine!" She looked down with an angry look.
"Whatever, no one listens to me anyway.."
"W-wait," I paused, " I'm sorry, I haven't been around people for a while."
I tried to apologize but it didn't work when she stood up and left the tent.

I sighed and looked at her.
Even at your worse you still look beautiful
I stared at her smiling.
I promise that when you wake up I'll be better, I'll be more confident, I'll tell you how I feel.

It was the middle of the night but I couldn't sleep. Suddenly the Nohara jumped up hyperventilating. Her eyes darted all around the tent in horror. I couldn't stand to see her in such fear so I hugged her to my chest.. "shhh, it's ok...no ones gonna hurt you.." she didn't squirm and instead started crying. "Rin what's wrong..?"
"I h-hurt you...!" she continued crying, while I stroked her hair to try and calm her down.
"It's ok...you could't control it.. I forgive you.." the crying slowly turned into small sniffles. She cutely rubbed her wet nose looking at the ground. I gently pressed my fingers onto her scalp trying to calm her down by massaging her head.
"O-obito..."
"Yes."
"Can we just stay like this.. for the whole night..."
I'm sorry, WHAT?! hug her.. or cuddle her.. for the rest of the night?! I mean I love you but I don't know how much more I can handle...
I turned red saying, "W-Whatever will calm you down..." she immediately buried her head in my chest.
"Thank you.." she hugged me tighter.
After a few minutes she looked up at me. First it was happy but then morphed into a death glare.
"W-what did I do!" I yelled a whisper.
"No ones healed you... have they?"
Oh shit
I sat there quietly, obviously guilty. Rin took my left arm and lifted my sleeve revealing the bloody bite marks and slashes. Silently tears started rolling off her cheeks.
I knew she was upset that she hurt me. "is my bag in here.." without saying anything, afraid of being scolded, I pointed to the other side of the tent where her bag was. She grabbed it and came back. "Take off your shirt. I need to see if there's anything else I did before it anything gets infected."
I hesitantly unzipped my cloak and laid it in the corner. When she looked back at me she froze. She had a red tint on her face with a terrified expression. "What happed to you..." she whispered to herself.
She laid her hand on the right side of my chest and started sliding it up and down my body giving me a heart attack. As she trailed her hand up to my neck I looked her dead in the eyes begging and pleading for her not to look down at my intrusive thoughts winning my body over.
Suddenly rin jerked back looking like a tomato. "I-I didn't mean to make you uncomfortable!" I saw her head siding down and crossed my legs in a different way to try and hid the situation.
"Y-you were just curious..." I quickly grabbed her hand and put it on my arm reminding her to heal me.
"Sorry I should be doing this.."
success! She's distracted...
She went into her bag and grabbed a water canister and towel. She dampened the towel and pressed in against my wounds. I grunted in pain. "s-sorry.." she whipped the crusty blood off the cut and disinfected it. She then wrapped the wounds up and let go of my arm.
Thankfully when she was done I had calmed myself down.
Rin handed me my cloak. "I won't tell if you don't.."
"There is no way in hell I'm telling anyone about that..." at least we agreed on it. Rin then hugged me like she was earlier.
"You promised." Her voice got muffled by my chest. I couldn't help but smile. I gently squeezed her and moved us so we were laying down and I quickly fell asleep.
