Waking up from my afternoon nap, I stare at the blue little bird with wide eyes staring at me. Seems like it has been awake for a while now.

"Hey birdie" I greet. Is that stupid jerk here yet? It's evening already. I walked around the house to check. My prediction is right. He's not here yet. I wonder where he went. Why is he taking so long... but that's just making things better, right? Without him around, there's no one to annoy me. And that is absolutely great.

The blue bird spreads its wings and flies to the window looking outside to the scenery. "You wanna go back? You're parents are waiting, right? Or maybe you live alone" I ask.

Bird just flies away out up into the air heading to the direction it came from. Stupid bird, you can't just come in and left without a word like this. It can't speak...Whatever, it's not like I'm going to die here anyway.

I walk up the stairs and sit down on the bed. I stare down at my powerbelt. What's the point? It's useless. I take the compact and open it. There's still no signal. I sigh and take it off then place it on the desk beside the bed. I grab some clothes and a towel heading to take a shower.

*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*

Late that night, I go straight to bed without eating anything. The onigiri this afternoon got me all stuffed. I blow out the lantern and and lay down on the bed. I pull the cover and close my eyes.

Is it just me or the bed is awfully big tonight?

I couldn't careless, if he's not gonna be here then leave it like that. It's not like I miss that terrible jerk. I close my eyes and trying to set myself into the deep sleep. Just then, I hear the door opens. My eyes remain closed although I'm not asleep yet.

...This is a bad idea, what if it's not sensei? What if the haunts man is back to his home? Or his ghost is haunting me? Damn why am I freaking out right now?

Then I can sense the figure reaching to caress my cheeks. This scent... it's definitely the shinobi. My eyes are still closed. I can feel his lips on my forehead. H-Huh? I shoot my eyes open to see his face. It's pretty too late, though. He must've feel my cheeks burnt first because he's already turning his back at me and quickly pulled his mask up. Due to the dim light, I can't afford to see clearly.

"That was close..." I murmur quietly. "I... I thought you were alseep. I told you not to wait for me" He says.

"Nonsense! I wasn't waiting"

"Anyway, sorry I'm late. Miss me?"

"Tch, like hell" I reply and go back to sleep. "Night" He says and walks to the door.

"Hey, w-wait..." I call out.

"Hm?" He turns towards me.

"N-Nevermind. Keep going" I say, trying to force myslef to sleep.

"Oh... I get it" He says, walking up to me and gets on the bed with me. "You want me to sleep with you" He whispers into my ears.

"I... I've never said that!"

"Admit it, Kaoru" He lays down beside me and pulls me against his chest in an embrace.
