Chapter 1- ~AT THE NINJA ACADEMY~ And _____,since you and Juriya had about the same scores,you will be on teams with Tsunadae and Orochimaru. "What?!you and Juriya say at the same time. "Sensei why do I have to be on teams with a creep like Orochimaru?!"You shout. "Yeah and why do I have to be on teams with that tomboy Tsunadae?!"Juriya said. "What did you say?!"Tsunadae said. "You heard me ugly!"Juriya replied. "Come over here and say that!"Tsunadae said holding up a fist.Juriya just ignored her and looked back at the teacher. "Simple,you two are the worse and they are the best,any questions?"You both pout and sit back down at your s

By the time I awoke, exhaustion no longer clung to my body. An arm wrapped against my stomach, pulling me in close against Orochimaru's slender frame as he slept. I didn't notice until recently, but his breathing was different too when he slept. It was slow, barely noticeable. He was so cold, his body was almost freezing during the night. Coldblooded... I tried to shuffle the blankets back up his body without awakening the man, giving him a bit of warmth again. How could someone that gets cold so easily sleep in such a musty, cold room? My body felt some, but not in a bad way. Just as he promised, he didn't hurt me for even a moment,

 My fingers threaded through the soft cloth, ever so carefully releasing the hold the bandages had around Orochimaru's arms. With them falling to the ground, my eyes found themselves examining his arms slowly, taking in the sight, "They seem to be healing well, almost completely so. How does it feel, can you move easier?" Orochimaru clenched his fists, then released them, checking his finger strength. As he turned and stretched his arms out, the healing gashes didn't reopen again, and while limited, he could almost completely move once again. With all the gashes healed, he wouldn't need the bandages anymore. It would have been healed fas

  I was letting everything spill. Every sliver of my heart and my thoughts. Every dastardly feeling I had pent up over the years, the things I'd felt in the past couple of days, I couldn't stop myself. I confessed how much I was still in love, and how hurt he truly was. I revealed how he needed Tsunade's healing and how I ran away from the hideout, and neither male uttered a single word of interruption. The two listened in utter silence, but I couldn't care. It felt so good to let everything out, that I didn't care how they judged me, if they hated me, even if they thought I was a traitor, it was just... So hard to hold everything in for

 Perhaps it was foolish to run off without telling anyone. Maybe it was also foolish to dig through Orochimaru's things and find where he tracked Tsunade's location up to before finding a dead end. In all fairness, I left a note before I left though. A kunai twirled between my fingers, my eyes glancing around in every direction. Good thing I still kept my village uniform, or I might've looked more suspicious than I already did. Nobody was looking my way, but I felt like a creep staring everyone down for someone that might know where Tsunade was. That might've just been an excuse though, I was nervous as hell. I just had to do it though

 Reality slowly began to fall down onto my body, and as I awoke, I buried my face against the warm pillow. That's right... It was warm. I had spent the night with Orochimaru in a cold room, but I didn't remember feeling cold at all. As I woke up more, I could feel the thick, warm blanket wrapped across my body and couldn't help a smile. Actually, how the hell did he pull the blanket over me in the first place? No, I wasn't sure pondering his mysterious ways was the first thing I was going to do when waking up. Speaking of, where was he? Orochimaru didn't seem to be anywhere, when did he leave? I pulled myself up and looked around, b

 "Exciting yet?" Kimimaru forced a light smile walking beside me. I was starting to get the feeling the guy had a sense of almost worship towards Orochimaru, only extending to me due to our bond. It was strange meeting someone so dedicated, but he wasn't trying to hurt me, so it was something I could attempt to ignore. "Absolutely," I joked back, "I've never seen a room before. It sure is a base." "There's only one place left," Kidōmaru interrupted, pointing ahead, and completely ignoring what a joke was, "Orochimaru's room is guarded by his fucking snakes, so we've never gone inside, but we can show you where it is." "Guarded?" "Y

Eventually, Kohana was completely out of sight and nothing but the gentle forest circled in every direction. Tayuya slowed before a large stone, where she didn't wait to brush her hand across it and hit what looked to be a hidden button. Of course Orochimaru would have a secret hideout, that was just like him. He... Didn't change much, did he? The stone rumbled to life and split down the center, revealing a hidden underground chamber inside. "Down here," She urged with a nod, "I'm not a tour guide, Kabuto or Orochimaru can do that when they get back, I'm just going to show you to your room." "Sounds... Good?" She went down first, leaving

My heart wouldn't stop skipping, bouncing around like it was trapped in a cage. My hands trembled, I couldn't focus on grading for even a moment.  As a teardrop fell onto a completed test, I wiped my face and pushed the test away from me. He was here, he was really here and I let him walk away from me. What if he didn't come back again? Who was he going to send? What if I didn't realize it was them? I wanted to be happy, but I could only feel fear and sorrow. Was something wrong with me? I waited so long, twenty years! For twenty years I didn't see his face, I didn't even get a letter. It was happening too fast, but I wanted him, I knew

 A groan brought my attention to look at Anko, my partner for the day. She let her body fall back against the fence as she lulled her head to the side, cracking her neck lazily, "This is boring, did all the teachers need to go through this for the exams?" "It's different when you're the one waiting for them to come back. I remember going inside for my exam... It was more exciting."  My heart wrenched at the thought of my exams, but I pushed it away quickly and met her bright eyes, "Anyway, they'll be done when they're done, so just keep waiting." The teasing in her eyes vanished as a frown set in, "Are you always this down? I heard you
