Night in Iwagakure was especially dark, being that the village was encased in stone. Even in summer, the unique construction of his home city kept it cool at night, and more importantly very dark. The rays of the sun didn’t commonly penetrate inside the mountain too well, and as such Shiro’s rather light tan was, within the society of Iwgakure, about as tan as a person could get. He gently brushed the brown locks of hair out of his jade eyes, feeling the heft of his blade on his back. It seemed like every moment, he was reminded he was a ninja. He was struck with a sudden urge, a desire, to shed that, for even a moment.
His eyes swept across the ground, all the while watching the sway of Pandoru’s hair, back and forth, as she watched. This was nothing to say of the sway of her hips, which he tried to avoid watching. It’s pretty damn sweet… His kikaichu said. Very nice, very nice. Me likey da assy. Shiro rolled his eyes at the insects, brushing their minds away for now. He had other things to focus on besides the quality of Pandoru’s posterior. Despite it being of a high quality… He shook his head again, instead turning to look around at his surroundings.
It was a beautiful spot that Pandoru had picked for them, one of the few places in the depths of the mountain where the light of the sun, or in this case night, could actually be seen. He smiled lightly, letting his gaze sweep over the waterfall, pouring down into a gentle pool of falling liquid that flowed off into yet another downpour elsewhere in the deep places of the mountain. He set himself lightly down beside it, his arms resting on his knees as he sat next to the girl he loved. He turned and smiled as she started to speak, resting a brief hand on her shoulder.
“Don’t worry about it.” He said calmly, still smiling at her. “None of that commotion would have happened if I hadn’t been there… I should be the one apologizing…” He frowned lightly, thinking back to the chaotic morning that had half-destroyed Pandoru’s home. Shiro winced slightly at the memory. “Although I have to say… Lash-sama does not seem to like me… at all. Quite the opposite, in fact.” He placed a fist under his chin, running his thumb along the jaw and thinking. “I know she’s just protecting you… But she’s hindering you too. She won’t let you have enemies or friends. She won’t let you have reckless or impulsive fun of any kind…” Shiro swallowed. “She won’t let you love.”
And then she mentioned the night before. Shiro winced again. For a few long moments, he didn’t say anything. And then, he unstrapped his katana, laying it down at his side. He unzipped his vest next, neatly removing it and folding it up, laying it on the ground beside his katana. A quick tap of his finger left a lone pair of kikaichu to scurry along the objects. Shiro gently turned to face Pandoru, now leaving his upper body in his wrappings, his t-shirt, and the headband tied to the shoulder. “It’s…” He said, hesitating briefly. “It’s alright. I know what sake can do…” His next words were almost bitter, as though he wished she hadn’t been. “You were drunk.”
Spent a moment, just looking into her eyes. “I…” He stood, placing a hand on his forehead and turning away form her for a moment. “Do you know what you’ve done to me?” He said, almost exasperated, but more pained than anything. He sighed, crossing his arms. “I can barely think without…” He swallowed, red staining his cheeks. He needed to face her as he said it. “Without thinking about you.” He stood there; his arms held tightly to his chest, almost as though he was protecting himself, wide open to her, yet still not taking that final step…
I love you.
It had to happen.
