          I opened my eyes and saw Naruto hovering over me staring. I  jolted up as I held my blanket close.

          “Naruto…what the hell are you doing?”

          My heart was racing, that was a wonderful way to wake up. Naruto jumped back and his face went red as he was avoiding eye contact.

          “I um…I didn’t know you were sleeping here and Jiraiya told me to keep an eye on you while he was out…you were sleeping in and well..I was..um worried.”

          I smiled as I fell back down on the bed with a sigh. I turned my head towards him seeing that he was still nervous.

          “Thank you Naruto…I really appreciate it…where did Jiraiya go?”

          Naruto seemed to loosen up as he sat down next to my futon. He crossed his legs and shrugged.

          “I don’t know he just said he needed to go out and he would be back…he said today we are going to work on helping me use the 9 tails chakra…”

          I nodded slightly as I placed my hands on my stomach, and I looked back up to the ceiling.

          “Yes…well if you want to start that training now, I can give you some pointers and exercises to get yourself in that state…”

          I looked over and his eyes went wide. He put on the goofy grin he always does. I saw the excitement radiating and I laughed a bit.

          “Yes! Please! Let’s go Isamu Sensei! I can’t waste any more time I need to train if I’m going to pass the finals!”

          He bent down grabbing my arm trying to pull me out of bed. He was able to get me to my feet and I almost fell forward. The kid has more strength than I thought, I laughed nervously as I got to my feet. I fixed my shirt and saw Naruto rub the back of his neck nervously again. He’s being really strange…I wonder what’s going on with him. Maybe I’ll try to get it out of him later, it might be easier if he’s calmer.

          “Okay…calm down Naruto…Let me just get ready, and we will be off okay? I will leave Jiraiya a note so he can come to meet us when he gets back…deal?”

          He nodded his head slowly still not keeping eye contact with me. I smiled as I grabbed a few things and went into the bathroom. I got into the shower; quickly washed and got out. I got dressed quickly and tightened my headband around my neck. My hair was still super wet, so I was towel-drying it as I came back into the room. Naruto was sitting on his futon, legs crossed, and patiently waiting. He looked up at me when I walked out and gave me a nervous smile. I walked over and bent down in front of him so we could be at eye level. His face went red but he was staring straight into my eyes. I took my hand and grabbed his right cheek pulling it a little. I giggled at how red he was, but he is acting too weird for words.

          “Are you sure you’re Naruto…you are acting very strange.”

          I let go of his cheek. He took his hand up slowly and started rubbing where I let go. He laughed nervously and grinned.

          “Yes of course Isamu Sensei! Now let’s go!”

          He got up and grabbed my arm as he pulled me out of the room. He let go as he looked up at me waiting for the next step. I finished writing the note to Jiraiya and stuck it on the door. I turned to Naruto as I pointed out to the entrance of the springs.

          “We need to get away from here…let’s go back through the entrance find a nice secluded spot so we can begin on a few starting points.”
