Let's Go! | Ft. Forever

Part Two - Awkwardness? - Olive

The picture above is something that I am very proud of. I drew Tobirama and than photoshopped this beautiful background in. I seriously love it so much.

"Aren't you supposed to give your name before you ask for mine?" is my lame comeback to his slightly arrogant question, "Geez, did anyone teach you any manners?" I mutter out, still very much so out of breath from the very short fight. Obviously, I needed more training.

"Tck. I don't have to tell you anything. You are trespassing on my clans territory!" The kunai in his hand digs slightly into my throat. I try not to flinch in pain as I feel the kunai prick my skin.

"Geez! Geez! Just chill, please! I'm lost, that's it! Sorry!"

A look of shock crosses the boys face, his red eyes widening ever so slightly. That quickly flashes away and a look of guilt overcomes his face.

"I'm sorry," he slowly gets off me and sits on the ground, "I was just heading here to get away from the compound for a bit."

I sit up and give him a smile, calling Toby over at the same time. Toby lays down and puts his head in my lap. I look over at the boy and see him looking down in shame and poking his finger in the grass.

"Hey, it's totally chill."

He looks up at me in shock, "Really? But I just tried to kill you?"

"Hey, I don't blame ya. It's a time of war, sometimes ya have to be extra cautious."

"Yeah, I guess so," a look of relief comes over his face but I can still tell that he's uncomfortable with this whole situation, "Anyways, the names Tobirama."

Hmm. In truth I thought he would be a totally human iceberg and totally emotionally constipated but he actually seem...decent and dare I add, a little kind.

I give him a closed eye smile, "Mines Oliver Zauvek. It's nice to meet ya."

"That's kinda a funny name."

"Hey! It's not that weird! Jerk!"

Tobirama scowls, "Don't call me jerk!"

All I can do is laugh. Honestly, it's not even that funny but he's just so damn cute, I can't help it. I laugh so hard I fall over, clutching my stomach in pain.

"Hey! What's so funny?!" Pink dusts his face and he looks completely flustered. This is priceless! Oh my gosh!

I slowly sit up, wiping the tears from my eyes. Still giggling a bit, I can barley get out, "Haha! Your face! Hehe! It was priceless!"

His face falls into a pout and I let out a few more giggles before we both fall silent. All we can hear is the gentle flow of the river, the faint rustle of the wind and the morning song of the birds. I let out a sigh of content and than my stomach decides to growl.

Tobirama looks at me with an amused glint in his eyes and I blush slightly while clutching my stomach. I let out a pout. I'm so hungry!

"When was the last time you had anything to eat?"

I let out a nerves chuckle, "I don't really know, it's been awhile. I don't really have a home anymore, so yeah." Our of nerves habit, I run my hand through my hair.

Tobirama's face falls into contemplation. For most his face would be hard to read but for some reason, I can read him like an open book. It confuses me ever so slightly. I can't do that with many people.

"Maybe you can stay with my clan. I know it's a bit risky but it's worth a shot," my bright green eyes widen, I was not expecting that, "It will probably take a while for people to trust you and you will be put under surveillance but I would really like to help you out."

"Tobirama-san! Thank you so much!" A nerves but happy smile comes across my face. I have the urge to hug him but I force myself not too. That would be way to embarrassing.

"Come on, Oliver-san. Let's go," he stands up and I follow after, "I'm guessing you don't have much ninja training so it will take about an hour to get to my compound."

"Er, yeah. I only have basic training from what you can tell. I'm not that good," I pat Toby's head and give his a scratch behind the ear.

"Hn, maybe I can train you."

Wow, just wow! This is insane! Absolutely insane! "Tobirama-san, thank you so much. I don't know how I can ever repay you."

"It's not needed. Now, come on, let's get going."
