"The 7th, eh? Who's the 6th? NO! Let me guess!" I say as I pull him up. "Is it Naruto?" I ask him. "Yeah! You know Naruto-niichan?" Konohamaru says and I sweat drop. "Really? I was with Naruto when you bumped into Kankuro and when me and Naruto got back from our journey. Stupid." I tell him, the sweat drop still visible. "Oh. OH! Now I remember!! You're that Ciel guy that Naruto-niichan would bring up every now and then!" Konohamaru says, pointing at me. "That's me." I say, sighing. "We should start getting unpacked. Mom says my violin lessons start today." Udon says, sniffing. "Oh? Is that so? Then we shouldn't make Udon late, right?" I ask everyone. "Right!" Konohamaru and Moegi shout. Asuma and Kurenai smile at us and nod in agreement. "ALRIGHT!! LET'S GET STARTED!!!" I shout pumping my fist up in the air. "YEAH!!!" They shout in suit.

Time skip~

We were finishing unpacking the last of the boxes. It was almost sunset, about 5:00 p.m. Konohamaru and the others went home, since they promised their mothers that they would be home for lunch. There was a knock at the door, and Kurenai went to go answer it. "I wonder who could that be. So late in the afternoon? Are you expecting someone?" I ask Asuma while carrying a box. "Well, I was a little while ago but they didn't arrive." Asuma answers, standing next to me. "Sorry for not coming earlier, I was-" I hear a voice say behind me but he cuts himself off. I turn around to see Shikamaru staring at me. I blush and avert my gaze. I wasn't ready to meet up with him this soon. "Shikamaru, you were supposed to come here 2 hours ago. Did something happen?" Asuma asks Shikamaru. "Yeah... something came up. I had to deal with it and get it off of my mind... Then I lost track of time, it was troublesome." Shikamaru says, his eyes not leaving my body. I could feel it, he was staring right into the back of my head. "I-I'll just get this b-box unpacked." I say as I walk up the stairs. I open the door to Kurenai's and Asuma's bedroom and set the box on their bed. I walk to their bathroom to their mirror. My god, I was flustered. Hm... you don't act like this around Duckbutt yet you act like this around Shikamaru... Explain. Our minds are connected, so you already know. I just... that confession was waaaay too unexpected. I didn't think he would actually fall in love with me... It was at absurd thought. Yeah, yeah, sure. But, who are you going to choose? Duckbutt and Shikamaru both confessed for you. I choose neither... love is stupid. I really do hate it... I sigh and walk back to the bedroom. The box had no label on it, Kurenai said it goes upstairs in their bedroom. She said she would handle it, but I insisted on taking it upstairs for her. She agreed, but she said not to look in the contents of the box... But being the nice person I am, I'll unpack it for them. Also to satisfy my curiosity. Curiosity killed the cat, but cats have nine lives. It wouldn't hurt to help them out, right? I open it and oh my god. Too many tools used for the bedroom.... is that a fricken whip!? TOO MANY KINKY STUFF FOR MY INNOCENT EYES!! OH MY GOD CLOSE IT! CLOSE IT!! I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT YOU HUMANS ARE INTO BUT THAT'S SO... OH MY GOD!! I closed the box, with a huge blush on my face. I run downstairs, trying to erase the memory from my mind. "Are you okay Ciel? You're all red." Kurenai says, who was at the foot of the stairs. "Ahahahaha! Yeah I'm fine! Why wouldn't I be fine!" I say, laughing awkwardly. "All the stuff is unpacked so I have no reason to be here! I hope you have a wonderful rest of the day ahahaha! See ya!!" I say zooming out of the door and slam it. I lean on the door, a heavy blush resting on my cheeks. Well... That was an experience... Never speak of this again. Okay, okay... but at least we were able to avoid Shikamaru. I guess that was a plus... I start walking away from the house. You know... It's nice... What's nice? We were able to save 2 lives... ....Yeah... Asuma and Kurenai are so happy... Yugito is safe back in her village... We were able to do something right for once. I start crying out of happiness. Yeah... you're right.... all of my time here I was so afraid to change the future of this anime and ending up changing it into something worse.... I was finally able to do something right... I wasn't able to change anything up until this point.... Haku and Zabuza... the chunin exams... the Duckbutt rescue mission... Bringing Duckbutt back.... nothing... I didn't even realize I arrived in front of Grandpa's grave. I lie down next to it and put my arm over my eyes. "Grandpa... you listening? I was able to save Asuma... I was able to save him.... I'm so sorry I didn't come and save you.... I knew about the attack of Konoha and the outcome.... Yet I was such a coward... I was scummed to the thought that I was going to change the future into something worse.... I'm... I'm so sorry... I don't expect you to forgive me... But I just wanted to let you hear this..." I say, tears spilling out of my eyes. I stayed like that for a moment, until a hand rests on my arm that was resting over my eyes. "You did more than enough Cassie... I'm proud you were able to overcome your demons..." A voice said, but I knew who it was. "Yes..." I say as more tears spill out. The hand that was on my arm was gone. Do I really believe it was Grandpa? Maybe. Do I think it was was my imagination comforting me in a cruel way? I suppose so. Do I think Grandpa would ever forgive me? Not a clue....
