Chapter 29

A/N: I am gonna be honest with you all. The reason I'm updating so much is because the mangarock app closed. There is no more manga to be read. And I looked through a few different manga apps, but don't like the formats or they don't have enough options. And the new app from their creators is shit. I be nicking out and in need of a fix XD I have instead turned to reading and writing fanfic.

So… New updates? I have been pacing myself in a way so my pain is manageable. Ill write some, take a break, write more. Soak my hands and stuff after or during. Management is a bit difficult, but doable. My chapters usually take double the time, and are sometimes shorter. But, I look over them more, so slightly less mistakes.

We do not own Naruto.

XXXxXX

Her chest ached, her mouth was parched, and her ears rang. It was the consistent ringing that woke her, grudgingly. She shifted, but was immediately pulled against a hard chest. That was when she realized she was being held tightly. But by who?

She moved her tongue along the roof of her mouth, trying to simulate her saliva. It had been a long time since she had been this dehydrated. How long was she out? And who was holding her?

She opened her eyes slowly, only to find dark. It was night time? She shifted to peek around the room, shapes slowly forming. The arms around her squeezed, as if they noticed she was rousing. However the person slept on. She reached out and touched a soft cheek, a piece of cold metal resting under her fingertip.

"Hinata…" It was Pein's deep voice that responded to her touch. She blinked, glancing around. This was his office, and she was currently on the sofa entangled with him.

A blush slowly rose to her cheeks as the moonlight suddenly burst through the window. The room was brighter now, everything was rather easy to see, and that included Pein's sleeping face.

How cute.

She couldn't help the smile that pulled on her lips, and leaned in to kiss his cheek. She was currently feeling overwhelming affection, and wished to express it in some way. Kissing was one way she was taught.

Purple ringed eyes opened, no sleepiness apparent. It was like he was awake the whole time, however the difference in his breathing was noticeable. Although he was now acting like he was awake, she was aware he was passed out.

Then, he leaned in, placing a soft kiss on her lips. She blushed hard, and ducked her head into his chest to hide it.

He squeezed her once more, a soft sigh washing over her scalp.

"I missed you." His voice was smooth, yet he fell asleep again seconds after she caressed his jawline. He had rather dark bags under his eyes, and was more pale then normal. He must have been exhausted.

She hummed, snuggling up to his chest.

But gosh… She was so thirsty.

So so thirstly.

She laid with him a bit longer, but her mouth and cracked lip refused to let her sleep again. Carefully as she could, she untangled herself from him and slipped off the couch. The room was familiar as she padded across the cold floor, she knew where to avoid the worn and creaky parts.

When she opened the door, her hard work being quiet went to waste. Hidan, who had been leaning against the door, dropped like a rock as she opened it.

Thud.

He scrunched up, his hands going around his head. "What the fuck?!" He yelled, possibly loud enough to wake the entire house.

"So-Sorry." She quickly dropped to her knees, trying to examine him, but he kept rolling around.

"Fucking, fuck." He growled, before finally flopped onto his back, a cocky grin on his lips. He looked… Perfectly fine. "Just kidding, babe." She scrunched up her nose, which only made him laugh.

"Now that we are awake, we might as well handle this situation." Pein's voice was above her, and before she knew it, she was swept up in his arms.

Hidan, who was still laying on the ground, glared as Pein tried to kick the door shut the door against his head. The solid wood bounced off, Hidan glaring all the while the dull thud sounded. "Bro, fuck off." He said, laying in the same spot as Pein tried to kick the door shut again. "Fine, fine, I fucking get it." He slithered out of the way, still perpendicular with the floor. She blinked, watching him with an odd awe.

It was rare to see Hidan in such a… Chill mood.

The door closed, cutting off her vision from him.

Pein carried her over to the couch again, then sat down with her on his lap. She blinked, looking up to him. He was not usually this affectionate.

It was.. Surprising.

"We have a lot to talk about." He said, placing a kiss to her temple.

"Ye-yeah?" She questioned.

"First off, do you wish to be sent back to Konaha house?" He must of felt her tense, because her gave her a small reassuring squeeze.

"No.." She mumbled, resting her head against his chest. She felt him place another kiss on the top of her head, making her blush softly. He was being so affectionate!

"Alright." He said. She wiggled a bit, pleased. She did not wish to see them after that. "Do you wish war against them, for offending you?" She blinked. He was… asking her? She blinked as tears welled in her eyes.

"N-No.." She snuggled closer to him, her heart twisting a bit. She was glad… That he cared enough to ask.

"Alright." Was his response. "It will be difficult, but we will respect your wish."

"Th-Thank you.." She kissed his neck softly as he began to rub her back softly.

From the corner of her eye, she could see a bright yellow book on the end table. How to communicate and show your affection to your partner for dummies.
