I woke up Saturday morning and stared at my ceiling, not wanting to face the day. I slept like shit again and wanted nothing more than to go back to bed, but I couldn't. I kept seeing Obito kissing Rin and I felt stupid. I groaned and decided to shower, it would waste some time at least. After my shower, I dressed for a run and grabbed my phone and earbuds. I went to turn my music on, but noticed I had multiple messages.
Zabuza: I'll be there Wednesday afternoon. Send me your address. That will go well... I answered him, keeping my answer at just my address.
Shisui: I want to check on you. Call me. I sighed, replying with a simple: I'm okay, I'll call you later.
Naruto: Brunch tomorrow? I replied with a yes and continued reading messages.
Madara: I enjoyed your company. Perhaps you'll join me again. My answer could be one of many and I decided with something straight forward: I did as well. Thank you.
Obito: Beautiful, I'm sorry for last night. Please call me. No. Until he knocks on my door, I will not be calling him.
I called him.
"Beautiful, are you okay?"
"I'm fine, Obito." I could hear him cringe at me using his full name.
"Madara didn't-"
"He was a perfect gentleman."
"That's hard to believe."
"About has hard to believe as someone bailing on a promise they made."
"I'm sorry, I am, baby."
"Quit with the pet names."
"Let me make it up to you."
"You bought me a car, I'll call it even and we can start our professional relationship. No questions asked. I don't need someone watching over me, I'll be fine."
"Let me take you to lunch." He wasn't backing down.
"I'm going for a run." It was true.
"I can't today, either."
"Is that so? Let me guess, you have plans?"
"I'm going to the hospital to see Rin's off-" I hung up on him. I shouldn't have called him.
I put my phone on 'ignore' and put my earbuds in, turning on my music. Halestorm radio: angry, female rock music. I didn't look back as I walked to the elevator, afraid Obito might try and catch me. I ran, and ran, and ran. I ran until my legs burned and my body was drenched with sweat. I ran until my mind was blank and I could only focus on my breathing. I know, it was counter productive, I showered and then went for an exhausting run. Oh well.
I made it the building and to my penthouse, and I was aching all over. I sank into a hot bath and let my muscles relax before showering off again. I flung myself into my bed, hoping a nap will help me feel better. I didn't look at my phone, instead using my work phone to set an alarm to wake me up. The exhaustion allowed me to pass out, sleep coming quickly. Hours later, I woke up to the sound of my alarm and turned it off.
Black shorts that were way too short, and a red tank top that was tight. Boobs and ass on display, makeup done, I sat down for a snack before I left for work. My phone held no messages. No phone calls. None. Obito remained silent. I clicked my tongue and pulled up another name, deciding to text instead of call.
5:16pm
To Shisui:
I'm sorry I didn't call, I went for a run and then took a nap. I'm about to head to work.I sat my phone down and took a bite of food.
