What a Smile Can Hide | Naruto Fanfic |

Chapter 4

"Asami!" A quite annoy voice screeches as the blankets are ripped off me.

A growl leaves my throat as I curl into a ball trying to compensate for my missing blanket.

"Do you have any idea how worried we were? Do you? I nearly had a heart attack! Do you know how bad it is for a pregnant woman to have a heart attack? Well I don't know either but it certainly cannot be good!" My mother shouted while stomping around my room.

I began to drown her out as I glanced at the clock on my bedside table. 6:07AM. I might as well get ready for training. Heaving myself up I walk to my closet and grab my typical ninja outfit. After living with my mother for a while you learn to say nothing during her rants unless you have a death wish. Everyone in my family has learned to ignore her during these times which is exactly what I am doing right now. Entering my bathroom I make sure to lock the door as I turn the shower and strip hopping into it soon after. Smiling I reach down and grasp my favorite shampoo, it smells like pure heaven in my opinion and many others as well. I can't really place just what flower it smells like because it's a mix of around 4 or 5 different flowers. I quickly lather it in my hair and scrub down my body.

"Lady Umeko!"

"Please calm down Lady Umeko!"

"It isn't good for you baby for you to be this upset!"

"Please calm yourself!"

A chorus of maids voices called out as they attempted to calm my fuming mother. So I guess she noticed I wasn't in my room anymore.

"I don't care how old that brat is she is getting paddled for how worried she had me!" I hear her screech as she pounds onto the bathroom door. Which caused me to erupt into a series of giggles.

"Asami! I swear to God when you get out of there!" She continued. Shaking my head as I stepped out of the shower and began drying myself off.

"Mother of God! Who the fuck is yelling at this ungodly hour?" My older brother Ryoichi screamed from his bedroom

"Ryoichi do not use that kind of language in my household!" My dad bellowed in return.

Ignoring my father's warning Ryoichi continued, "God damnit Asami what the hell did you do?" He yelled.

Humming softly I pulled my clothes on and observed myself in the fogged mirror. I cannot lie I can see why people call me beautiful so often, but everyone should know beauty like this does not come naturally. I cannot even give you a rough estimate of how many hours I spent scrubbing my face until it hurt or sitting through sessions of plucking or waxing. Despite that I did have immense natural beauty. Emerald colored eyes stared back at me ,raven black locks flowed in thick curls to my waist and framed my heart shaped face, I had naturally pink lips that were permanently set in a pout like manner, and my pale skin brought out these features nicely. Heading lower you meet a girl with the figure of a 10 year old boy which is the main reason I cannot wait to actually obtain curves.

After towel drying out my hair I braid it into a loose braid and pin it into a bun leaving a few short strands and my bangs to frame my face. Grasping my headband I tie it loosely around my neck, taking a minute to admire it I brush my fingers across the cool metal. Pulling on my shoes I turn and grasp the door handle only to be sent flying back when the door flew off its hinges and collided with my face.

"Did you think running away would help you?!" My mother hissed her hair flying about her as she stormed towards me.

"Lady Umeko! Your daughter's face!" A maid shouted drawing everyone's attention to me.

Raising my hand to my nose I gasp when I feel moisture. "Ah! Mommy didn't really mean to break your nose! Let mommy see it!" My mother shouted rushing at me with a familiar green chakra in her palm. My instincts told me to run but instead I stayed put as she would never dare kill me with the maids as witnesses. Crouching down her palm hovered directly above my face. I let out a relieved breath as I felt my nose return to one piece but I soon sucked in another gasp as a palm collided with my cheek. "You had me so worried Asami!"She screamed squeezing me tightly returning to her rant. Eventually I escape her vice grip and I rose to my feet and began to wash the the blood from my nose.

"Ok Umeko I think she gets it." My father mumbled obviously not pleased at my mothers shouting this early in the morning. "You've already broke her nose and it isn't even 7 in the morning."

"I've never broken her nose before! I have never even left a mark on her before!I I'm sorry Asami!" My mother whimpered tears brimming in her eyes while she gazed at me sadly. Damn her pregnancy mood swings are really getting crazy.

"Hai, Hai."I mumbled brushing past them both as I walked back into my room.

Grasping my chuunin vest off my bed I thrust my arms through the holes and glanced at myself in the full length mirror in the other side of my room. Pulling on my fingerless gloves I observed my outfit in the mirror. I wore a tight long sleeve black shirt the ended at my palm but had holes for my thumbs to poke through not like it matter as you could not even see this as I wore my gloves over. Black thigh high socks covered most of my legs but mini shorts hugged my butt. Normal black ninja sandals adorned my feet and a black forehead protector rest against my collarbone as it was tied around my neck. If you met me yesterday you would most likely would not be able to recognize me in my ninja attire. But damn I looked fine. I smirk checking myself in my mirror forgetting my parents behind me. I failed to notice two more presences in my room until one of them spoke.

"You don't have much to look at so I dont see whats taking you so long looking in that mirror." Ryoichi grumbled with half lidded eyes. Turning around quickly I could feel my eyes widen in shock and hurt. Noticing only my two older siblings I let out a quick breath of relief. "You can't really call yourself a ninja if you didnt even notice us waltzing on into your room." He sighed coldly.

"Shut up Ryoichi." Yuki my older sister commanded making his mouth immediately snap shut. "Asami you should get going its nearly 6:45." Yuki stated in a calm voice before exiting my room dragging her older sibling out of my room.

Peering over my bed I realized she was right. Thrusting my window open, I throw myself out and jump onto a home close to mine. Jumping from roof to roof with chakra infused legs buildings passed in blurs.
