Teach me to love ~Naruto~: Chapter 1

Chapter 25: Found Out

Lady Tsunadei had her hands folded in front of her as she gave us the bad news. Neji had told her everything. She knows charlie is a girl now. And we don't know for sure if she will be sent home.

"I don't know what I can do for you. The elders know. If it were just my dession I would let you stay with him. But they won't have it."

"Please ma'am. They've all seen Naruto's grades! They know how well he's been doing!" CHarlie challenged.

"I know. But my hands are tied Charlie."

"She can't go home now! Please there has to be something you can do!" I was really triing here.

"Wait... go home? We aren't sending her back to Iwa."

That surprised both of us. "What?"

"But the elders have a problem with you two living together. So we are moving Charlie into the apartment next to yours."

I looked at Charlie who had a huge smile on her face and hugged her hard. This was deffinatly some good news when we prepard ourselves for the worst. Lady Tsunadeidismissed us and wewalkedown the hall. Neji stood at the end with a huge smirk plastered across his face. But it quickly turnned into a frown when he saw Charlie hugging my arm with a smile.

"I can't believe that just happened! I was so expecting to go home! Somebody up there loves us!" SHe gushed.

"Right! Freaking awesome!" I looked down at Charlie, her beautiful blue hair shinning as we walked into the bright sun. She's so beautiful.... God I keep having these thoughts! I don't know whats wrong with me. I had them awhile ago too. And then I got preeocuppied and then they came back! My brain hurts now... The normal thoughts are something like, CHarlie is so beautiful, or, her eys are like sunshine. Sometimes I think about her personality! The AMBU would be there tomorrow to pack up Charlies things and move them into the other apartment. So it was our last night as roommates.

We got home and Charlie started to make something for lunch. I watched her happily.

"So what would you like to learn today?" SHe asked. CHarlie handed me a bowl of her special beef soup. It's really yummy and has this special spicy stuff in it. She calls it ghost pepper.

"I don't really know. Let me think for a minute." She makes history interesting, and science isn't half bad. I hate math... math just... it just sucks ya'know? And if I say English then she's going to make me read.

Charlie smiled as she sipped the soup. She is just so amazing. So smart and talented. And after seeing her stand up to Kobe the other day, I know she's strong. Is there any better a woman?

I knew what I really wanted to learn, but I had a small issue with telling her my subject of choice. I mean, she's my bes friend. We've been together for for a good three or four months now. And for the longest time now I have been fighting off a feeling without ven really knowing it. The competition really made me realise it. But it's obvious to me now.

Charli seemed to notice my deep thought. "What are you thinking about?" She asked.

"I'm thinking about something I would really like to learn about."

"Well what is it? Thats why I'm here man."

"I don't know if you would want to teach me this. It's kind of a deep lesson."

"I'm trained to teach sex ed as well."

"Noooo! Already took that class, screw that!" I stood and walked to the window I heard Charlie get up and follow me. "What I want you to teach me... right now you're the only one I would want to teach me this."

"Give me the chance. I'm sure I can do something." She put her hand on my shoulder. I looked down at her and put my hands on either side of her face. Slowly, ever so slowly, I lowered my face to hers and pressed our lips together. Her lips are soft and warm. I almost didn't want to pull away.

"Teach me to love."
