Chapter 39

Tatsuyu's POV

Flash Back

"Jiraiya, why are we heading to the Uchiha Compound?" I ask him.

"I'm gonna have you train with two ANBU and a kid two years younger than you today while I do some research." Jiraiya says to me and I pout.

"Why do you have to peak on women in the hot springs?" I ask him.

"Its for my book." Jiraiya says to me and I snort in annoyance.

"You mean for you own personal porn novels that don't sell?" I ask him and his eye twitches in annoyance.

"They sell you little brat." Jiraiya says to me.

"Yeah right." I say to him.

"Tatsuyu?" Weasel asks confused.

"Weasel Face?" I ask him and the adult male laughs next to him.

"Tatsuyu, this is Itachi, Shisui and Itachi's little brother, be good and don't give them your snarky remarks." Jiraiya says to me and my eye twitches in annoyance.

"Like you have room to talk, your turning into a sarcastic bitter old man." I say to him and he twitches in annoyance.

"What was that you brat? I'll have you know, I'm only 45, I'm not old yet and I'm definitely not bitter." Jiraiya says to me annoyed.

"Oh yeah? You've been arguing with me all the way here." I say to him with a snort of annoyance.

Jiraiya growls in annoyance. "I leave her to you." Jiraiya says to Weasel who chuckles and nods and Jiraiya leaves.

"What was that about? I thought he was your God Father." Weasel asks me.

I snort. "God Father or not, he knows where to push my buttons." I say and I look at the kid. "Who's the kid?" I ask.

"Your a kid to." Shisui says to me.

"I know, but he looks younger than I am." I say to Shisui.

"He is, by two years." Weasel says to me.

"I'm Sasuke Uchiha, are you are?" Sasuke asks me, slightly annoyed with me already.

"Tatsuyu Senju." I say to him.

Sasuke looks at me with narrowed eyes, while I'm just unaffected.

"That's a Senju for you, always irritating some Uchiha." Shisui says to Itachi who nods.

"They'll make great friends." Weasel says and his mother comes out of nowhere.

"Itachi, I swear, you better hook these two up, I mean, look at how cute she is!" Mikoto says to him.

"Nu uh, no way." I say to her and she just smiles at me while Shisui is off laughing and Weasel is sighing.

"Good luck Tatsuyu." Weasel says to me.

Mikoto uses a deadly aura on me. "You'll marry one of my sons if I have anything to do with it, you'd make a great Uchiha." Mikoto says to me.

I turn around and start walking. "If Jiraiya wonders where I went, tell him I said that I'm gonna go flatten a forest." I say and Weasel freezes and then chuckles nervously.

"No, your gonna stay and train with us." Shisui says picking me up and starts walking with a sweat dropping Itachi and Sasuke behind him and we get to a training area.

"Nin-Jutsu!" Sasuke says to us.

I blink while Itachi nods. "I'm fine with anything." I say and Shisui nods in agreement.

"Alright, I challenge you Tatsuyu." Sasuke says to me and Shisui and Itachi back up, quite a bit.

I shrug and I stand across from him and he starts doing hand signs while I take my time.

"Fire Style: Fireball Jutsu!" Sasuke yells and a big fireball comes at me.

I finish my hand signs. "Water Style: Water Bullet Jutsu." I say and I blow out a water bullet and it destroys the Fireball and Sasuke barely manages to dodge it. "Maybe I put too much force in that one." I say as it takes down a few trees and Shisui and Sasuke gawk.

"You think?" Weasel asks me.

I just shrug. "I should work on control tomorrow." I say and Sasuke looks at me and scowls at me, I just raise an eyebrow. "Why do I feel like I'm gonna have a lot of trouble with you in the future?" I ask Sasuke.

"Your probably not wrong." Weasel says to me.

I shrug and I pull my book out of my pouch as Sasuke continues to challenge me and then the challenge of a Gen-Jutsu comes up and I look up from my book. "No." I say to Sasuke simply.

"Why? Are you bad at Gen-Jutsu?" Sasuke asks me with a smirk.

"Uh, not really, I'm not an Uchiha and I have some Uzumaki blood in me and the Uzumaki clan aren't very good with Gen-Jutsu, actually they suck at it and I just haven't bothered to train in Gen-Jutsu, its annoying to use." I say to Sasuke as I flick him in the forehead and he stumbles back and falls on his butt. "Now, would you stop challenging me? Its getting annoying and besides, if I used Tai-Jutsu on you, I actually could hurt you." I say to him.

"Its true." Weasel says to him.

Sasuke just scowls at me as he gets up and continues to bother me while Shisui and Weasel train together.

"I'm a babysitter?" I ask and Weasel sweat drops nervously and I snort in annoyance and after a while Jiraiya gets here to see I'm close to strangling Sasuke.

"So." Jiraiya says to us and I start walking away.

"I'm done!" I say and Shisui and Weasel chuckle while Sasuke is glaring at my back while Jiraiya is confused.

Flash Back End

"Come to think of it Sasuke, you were a very annoying kid, its a wonder how I didn't strangle you." I say and Sasuke sweat drops as I just suddenly bring that up out of the blue.

"Its not my fault you have a temper and I was being a kid trying to get your attention." Sasuke says to me.

Flash Back

I walk to the Uchiha compound with Sasuke who I had to babysit again!

I see Weasel at the gate of the compound. "Weasel Face!" I call with a small wave and he looks over.

"Ah, Tatsuyu, you've brought Sasuke back alive." Weasel says to me.

"I'm not that irresponsible." I say to him with a snort of annoyance.

"Well come on, both of you." Weasel says to us and I raise an eyebrow. "Father wants to meet you Tatsuyu." Weasel says to me.

"Oh great, another Uchiha to dislike." I say and Weasel chuckles amused as I follow them while reading my book.

We get to Weasel's house and Weasel takes me to a room where his Father is at and he sits down and I follow his lead and sit down beside him, my bangs fall over my left eye.

"Itachi, is this her?" His father asks him.

"Yes Father." Weasel says to him.

I start getting bad vibes from his father, so I look at him in the eyes, deciding, well, I have no logic.

"What is your name?" His father asks me.

"Its only polite to state your name first before asking someone for theirs." I say to him calmly and Weasel looks at me shocked that I talked back, but I just look forward.

"Hmm." His father says to me. "My name is Fugaku Uchiha."

"Tatsuyu Senju." I say to him.

"You've all that has been on my boys minds when they're home, I wonder why." Fugaku says to me.

"No reason, I'm just Itachi's friend and Sasuke's babysitter." I say and Weasel nods.

"Babysitter? You look too young for that." Fugaku says to me.

I just snort. "Yeah? Well you look to old to be a clan leader, but no one says anything to you." I say to him and Itachi looks away as his father gets mad.

"Your pushing it." Fugaku says to me.

"Am I? Oh sorry, I didn't realize that I can be snarky to people I get bad vibes from." I say and that does it, Fugaku's Sharingan activates and I stare straight ahead with my left eye closed. "It's no use Fugaku, your Sharigan won't work on me, none of your tricks will." I say and I look him dead in the eye.

"She's going to die." Weasel mutters under his breath.

I smile amused after a second and I sit back and move my bangs and I open my eye with a smile. "Well then, this was an experience, never knew that certain Uchiha can put me in a more foul mood than when I'm dragged out of bed." I say and Weasel looks at me shocked as I get up. "I'll be dismissing myself now." I say and Weasel and Fugaku look at me shocked. I walk to the door and I put my sandals on and I leave.

I pull out my book once I exit the compound and I walk around for a bit and then Weasel joins me.

"I can't believe you stood up to my father like that, could you be anymore stupid?" Weasel asks me.

"You need to have more faith in me Weasel, I know when to stop, I was just checking the vibes I was getting from him, if I was nice, I would have left an opening for him to try something and if I was dead cold, I would be hiding under my bed right now." I say to him.

"Still, you need to be more careful around my clan." Weasel says to me and I smile amused.

"Yeah right, we have a treaty between the clans, they can't hurt me unless they want Lady Tsunade after their hides." I say and Weasel sighs.

"The treaty won't last forever, you know that right?" Weasel asks me.

"I know." I say to him.

"And that's exactly why you need to be careful, you could get killed by them one day." Weasel says to me and I look up from my book and I look at him.

"Why do you care so much Weasel?" I ask him and he stops and looks at me and I stop in front of him.

"Why? Because I'm worried about you ok? You've become too close for me to lose." Weasel says to me.

I look at him with wide eyes, a unnoticeable blush dusts my cheeks and he walks forward and stands in front of me and smiles at me.

"You damn Uchiha's and your perfect smiles." I mutter under my breath and Weasel chuckles as I look away with a noticeable blush on my cheeks. "Too close to lose huh?" I say and he nods and places a finger under my chin and has me look up at him.

"Way too close, I might have developed feelings." Weasel says to me quietly and kisses me on the cheek and my face turns bright red.

"ITACHI UCHIHA!" I yell at him and he laughs as I throw something at him and he dodges it.

"Woah, what is going on here?" Shisui asks us.

I breath heavy, my face still flushed. "You idiot!" I yell at Weasel and he laughs.

"What?" Weasel asks me.

"Seriously, what happened?" Shisui asks.

"I kissed her on the cheek." Itachi says proudly.

"Nice move." Shisui says to him and they high five.

My eye twitches in annoyance and water comes up out of the ground and the boys pale. "YOU IDIOTS!" I yell and the Tsunami hits them and they lay on the ground twitching.

I walk away from them, needing to cool off.

"So that's why you don't like Neji." TenTen says to me and I jump.

"Where did you come from?" I ask her.

"Here and there." TenTen says to me.

I snort. "I'm done, I'm going home, locking the doors and windows and I'm gonna binge cartoons." I say and TenTen laughs as I stalk off to my apartment and just as I get to the door, Weasel grabs my wrist and pulls me towards him.

"Are you mad?" Weasel asks me.

I look up at him as he smiles nervously and I pout and look away. "How can I be mad at you, I'm just embarrassed." I mumble.

Weasel chuckles. "Good." Weasel says and lifts my chin and his face inches closer.

Doki doki, doki doki, doki doki.

He kisses me on the lips this time and I look at him with wide eyes before I melt into the kiss and once he steps back, my face its redder than burning lava. "You damn Uchiha." I mutter under my breath and he chuckles.

"So, what did you say about cartoons?" Itachi asks me and I look at him shocked.

"You heard that?" I ask him and he nods with an amused chuckle and if possible, my face gets redder in embarrassment and then I faint.

"Tatsuyu!" Itachi says worried as he catches me.

"I think you killed her." TenTen says to him.

"How?" Itachi asks her and TenTen opens the apartment with the spare key and Itachi takes me inside and sets me on the couch. "She'll be alright, right?" Itachi asks her.

"Yeah and second now you'll be drowning in water." TenTen says to him.

I sit up after a second and Itachi looks at me worried. "I'm not even gonna do anything about this situation, where's the remote?" I ask and TenTen and Itachi sigh in relief.

I find the remote and I cover myself with a blanket and I turn the TV on and I flip to a channel with cartoons and I watch them, ignoring everyone else, until Itachi moves the blanket slightly and he sits next to me with the blanket around him as well.

I focus on the cartoons while TenTen heads to her room smiling amused. Itachi puts his arm around my shoulder and I blush, but I keep my eyes on the TV.

After a while, I get hungry and I get up and Itachi looks at me confused.

"Where are you going?" Itachi asks me.

"The kitchen, to make dinner." I say to him and Itachi looks at the time.

"I have to go home now." Itachi says to me and kisses me on the forehead before leaving.

I blush furiously as I walk to the kitchen and I make dinner and I sit on the couch eating while watching my cartoons.

Flash Back End

A light blush dusts my cheeks as I think about that time.

"What's wrong with your face?" Sasuke asks me.

"Weasel Face never told you huh?" I ask him.

"Told me what?" Sasuke asks me.

I smile with slight nervousness. "He and I dated for about 2 years before the whole massacre." I say and Sasuke's eyes widen.

I scratch the back of my neck.

"You said you knew next to nothing about him!" Sasuke accuses me.

"I lie fluently." I say to him.

"What?" Sasuke asks shocked.

"Oh well." I say with a small shrug and I look up at the sky. "I bet you miss him." I say and Sasuke looks at me.

"And why wouldn't you miss him?" Sasuke asks me.

"I do miss him, he was my second love, my first being my bed of course, you wouldn't believe how comfortable it is, its like sleeping on a cloud, not that I ever tried sleeping on a cloud, but its perfect." I say and Sasuke sweat drops.

"So, Itachi was your lover then." Sasuke says to me.

"We were kids, but, if the massacre didn't happen, we'd probably be married right now." I say to him.

"So you didn't know he was reanimated during the war by Kabuto and joined our side?" Sasuke asks me and I freeze.

"He was what?" I ask stopping.

"Reanimated." Sasuke says to me.

My eyes sadden for a second and Sasuke notices, but its quickly gone and replaced with slight anger. "I see, no, but then again, I'd probably would have broken down, it took all I had to fight him when he was still alive and in the Akatsuki and going after Naruto." I say and I continue walking, my bangs covering my left eye so that its shielded from Sasuke and he looks at me. "You know, if it weren't for Itachi, I would be colder, he was the one who taught me to feel emotions again, I was still hurting from when I lost parents during the 9 Tails attack, I could vividly remember it, but, he, he stopped that pain, I was probably like Hinata when she's around Naruto, red faced and nervous, which he found amusing." I say and I pull out my book. "Then, the night he killed the Uchiha, I wanted to go with him, I did, but he stopped me, he said that I had a village to protect, watching him leave, broke my heart, kind of like Sakura's heart when you left the village and set out for Orochimaru. I locked my emotions up again and I didn't cry, not a tear, no matter how much I wanted too, I stopped myself and I bottle my emotions, not a good idea, when Jiraiya died and when I got the word you had killed Itachi, I was devastated, that was the flood gates for my emotions, just pushed open." I say and he looks forward, I can tell he feels guilty. "Don't hold it against yourself Sasuke, he wanted to die by your hand after that day, I knew everything that was going on between the village and the Uchiha, I knew he was gonna leave, I just, could accept that fact." I say and Sasuke looks at me shocked. "I don't hold it against anyone, I'm just, holding it against myself for falling for him, his damn smile and laugh, his damn personality, I didn't realize it that I had fallen head over heels for him." I say and I stop and I take another road and Sasuke follows me.

"If you had told me while I was hell bent on revenge, I probably would have killed you too." Sasuke says to me.

"I know, that's why I never said a word, to anyone in fact, only TenTen knew of our relationship, we kept it a secret and then Shisui found out, we had him swear he wouldn't tell anyone." I say and Sasuke looks at me.

"Why would you keep it a secret?" Sasuke asks me.

"Your father, he would have separated us in an instant if he found out." I say to him.

"Romeo and Juliet huh?" Sasuke asks and I nod.

"Basically." I say to him and a tear falls from my left eye and Sasuke looks at me shocked. "A bug got in my eye." I say and I wipe my eye and Sasuke narrows his eyes slightly at me, but I pay no mind.
