Chapter 18: Melodrama

"Why are you following me?" the person asked in a very serious tone.

Once the raven recognized the voice she sighed in relief, it was just Naruto. "I um..."

The blonde looked at her intently as he pinned her to the wall, they were just an inch apart. They were so close that she could feel his breath which made her much more uncomfortable.

"Wait," she suddenly turned the tide as her embarrassment diminished completely. "Shouldn't I be the one asking you? Why didn't you come pick up your books yesterday?" she said in a stern manner as she crossed her arms.

"I um..." he was unable to answer her question. It never came across his mind that his actions would backfire on him.

"And why were you harsh on Sakura earlier? You were basically giving everyone the cold shoulder, I may not have known you for a long time but I know that this isn't what you normally do. Did something happen?" She surprisingly showed a worried expression.

He sighed in response, "I don't wanna talk about it." He was about to attempt to walk out on her when he was grabbed by the hand and shoved at the wall.

"You're not going anywhere until you answer me."

"What's your deal huh?! Why do you even care about my feelings when clearly you don't even give a damn about m-"

Sasuko suddenly slapped him, "You're right I don't care about you never have been and never will, but remember we are still a group! To be honest, if we weren't teamed up together I wouldn't care less about you, but we are and that's why we should help each other out. The day you saw my scars-I panicked, I locked myself in the bathroom but you were still stubborn enough to smash open the door. You saw that disgusting part of me and yet you didn't hesitate to comfort me..." she looked down. "Don't you dare think I'm doing this because I like you or whatever, this is just a way of thanking you for that time."

Naruto somewhat managed to smile for her nice yet blunt honesty, in the end he couldn't blame her for his problems.

He didn't want the conversation to grow any longer so he asked, "Can we go to your place? You know, so we can continue the song, the presentation isn't that far behind."

"Fine, let's go." she rushingly led the way.

"Hey you're walking too fast! Wait for me! Ugh."

"Hmm♪"

The day slowly drifted away as the sky came to a gloom, Shizune gently held Tonton in her arms as she enjoyed the calm atmophere. After the discussion with Tsunade earlier she finally overcame her pride and forgave her fiance. It's just ashame that they couldn't go home together since Kakashi had to finish school work but nevertheless she's still happy that despite their heated arguements they still manage to forgive each other and just learn from their mistakes. It's like her strictness for Tsunade before was passed on to Kakashi.

'I wonder how Tsunade-sama is doing in her home without me?' she sighed. 'I hope she's not gambling anymore, I may be getting married but that doesn't mean she can just get away with her vices.'

While she kept thinking of the bittersweet memories of her and the blonde; a sudden breeze started to crack up, then out of nowhere a black car unexpectedly appeared. It stopped right beside her and then a gray-haired man came out and pulled her straight to the car, it was all so sudden that Tonton almost slipped from her arms.

The man kindly introduced himself as Kabuto and offered her some cookies.

"Greetings," the driver who had long black hair responded with a voice that could give anyone a chill in their spines.
