[Chapter 39: Tiny Light]

"Chunin exams?" I tilted my head. It's been that long already?

"Yup," With a nonchalant shrug, Kakashi gave me a sheet of paper. A registration form, to be exact. "Sakura-chan already knows this but it'll be held in Kusagakure this time."

So that's why Sakura's not here. I hummed, clutching the paper as I leaned against the wooden pole. Chunin exams, huh? My eyes darted back at the scarecrow. "But dum dum, we don't have enough members: Naruto and Sasuke aren't with us."

The silver head only chuckled, his expression covered by his mask. "Don't worry about that, Megumi-chan. We thought of a solution to that."

I narrowed my eyes, and he's not gonna tell me that? I tilted my head away, well, I guess it would ruin the surprise. "When are we gonna leave, anyway?"

"Tomorrow."

I blinked. And then again.

"What." It was then that it finally dawned on me: we were leaving tomorrow. "Ya dum dum!" Puffing my cheeks out, I pointed an accusing finger that the chuckling man. "You should've told me this sooner!"

My feet were already tapping the floor at the sudden rush of need. "Uwah...!" Do I have enough weapons? Enough time to pack? Do I have enough time to prepare to see potentially more cuties?! "I'll get you back at this!" With chakra coursing through my veins, I body-flickered away, not bothering to hear his response.

(;・ε)"

"So you're our third member!" I exclaimed at them. To be honest, I wasn't that surprised— I mean, it is the most logical assumption.

Hiro only eyed me with a brow raised. "So what?" He shoved his bandaged hands in his pockets, striding up to us. On his shoulder was a bag, probably full of his belongings.

"Well," Sakura placed her hands on her hips, a string that was connected to her bag in her hold. "You better not slow us down in the chunin exams!"

I only giggled as the boy rolled his eyes. "Where the hell's your teacher?"

Oh right— the dum dum. The ends of my lips quirked up. "You get used to it." He is going to hate him.

"Get used to what?"

The bubblegum girl next to me stifled a laugh, leaning back against the gate walls. "You'll find out sooner or later."

(^)

"What the fuck— what took you so long?!"

"Mah, mah. Hiro-kun, calm down—"

"Calm down my ass!"

"Getting faster and faster. Getting busier and busier." I sang out loud, hand in hand with a certain pinkette. Now, I would do the same with Hiro but... don't wanna annoy him, ya know?

Trudging along the dirt road, I saw how she rose a brow. "Getting faster and faster?" Sakura questioned, somehow already in tune.

I laughed, swinging our interlocked arms. "Getting more and more difficult!" Continuing that little song, we both sang to our heart's content, stumbling on the notes as it progressed. "That's what I'm thinking of this afternoon." With my other hand, I grabbed Kakashi's earning a small eye-smile. "Join in!"
