Once The Rain is Over

Summoning Snake?

A moderate sized traditional house in the middle of forest not very far from the town can be seen. A few lamp outside shone all the way around the house .

Juugo step a few wooden stairs and walk to the shoji door. Giving a way for his friends to go in first. "Careful" He says as Suigetsu remove his sandal with a little bit of difficulty while carrying the redhead with him.

"Karin~why did you drink so much when you know you can't tolerate that much." Suigetsu whined but slowly and gently laid the redhead to the futon in one of the room.

Juugo watched from far and closed the shoji door on his back. Watching the redhead and Suigetsu, he spoke. " Take care of her, Suigetsu. I think she wouldn't be waking up till tomorrow." He casually said.

"Ehh?!" He almost yelled. "Nani? Karin would smack me down if she knew I'd stay with her. Plus, it would be very...awkward." He said growling under his breath.

"It's just for her safety. " He replied.

"Well . Why won't you stay? It's better if it's you." Suigetsu stated as he stared at Karin who was still asleep.

Juugo turn around. " I have somewhere else to go and to do." With that he leave without further explanation.

That makes Suigetsu frustrated. 'Damn' He thought. "What do I do now?" He spoke to himself. If he leave probably Juugo would get mad for not taking care of her.

He sat cross-legged and his right hand on his face support by his right thigh. Looking at Karin. "If that Sasuke here , I'm not gonna be the one who have to take care of her." He complained. It's not that he didn't want to but it feels somewhat awkward.

The redhead sudden stir in her sleep and move to her side, facing Suigetsu. She murmured a small "cold" .

Suigetsu seemed to heard it and stood up to take the blanket just next to Karin. He adjusted her pillow before covering her with the soft fabric. But before he could manage to pull fully , something wrapped an arm around his waist.

He froze. "K-Karin!" He whispered.

The kunoichi's hand pull him towards her and hugged him like a pillow. 'This is bad' He thought. He remain frozen for a while . Feeling her breath to his face . As the time pass by, he just waits the opportunity to get off her grip later. He just manages to moves and faces the ceiling above him, his left hand under his head .

But . The weight comes to his eyes and slowly drifted to sleep too.

Early in the morning,

As expected, a loud scream of a female coming from a certain house in the forest can be heard followed by another scream from a male , sounded rather...in pain. More or less.

Karin jumped away from the young man who she thought was a 'hugging pillow' for a comfort which is Suigetsu who held his head in painful expression.

"Nani!? It's very painful to get to wake up in the morning this way! Is there any other thing you can do for not doing that even though I expected you to be like this." He sighed while rubbing his throbbing head. Still dizzy. Well he just woken up with a loud whack on his head.

The beauty redhead now became surprised. "B-but you were .. " she trailed off.

"Tch, it's not like what you're thinking! You were drunk last night. I had to carry you and that Juugo-teme let me stay with you as to take care of you. Just in case. " He explained, part of it. He really wanted to tell her that its her sudden behaviour that trap himself last night but keep it to himself.
