Daisuke's POV
Another boring meeting I think to myself standing amongst the other jonin around Lord Hokage's office.
Today is the day the new graduates from the academy will be sorted into teams of three with a jonin assigned to them to oversee them. As the future leader of the Kurokawa Clan Father still sends me to these meetings so I'll have even more knowledge about what's happening in the village.
My eyes making its way towards the round glass orb in front of Lord Hokage. The other jonin staring more intently at the orb as they know that the children in it will be under their care.
However it's a shame
Not all of you will become genin.
I chuckle to myself thinking of all the tests the jonin around me have prepared for their squads tomorrow. My chuckle catching the gaze of the white haired ninja beside me, Kakashi Hatake. I flash him a grin which earns an eye roll in return.
I'd hate to be in his squad, I think to myself as I recall all the teams he has failed in the past.
The glass orb moves and now shows Sasuke sitting alone with his fingers folded in front of him. He's surrounded by a bunch of girls who are clearly fighting over which one of them will be able to sit next to him.
I knew he was antisocial but is really going to just ignore the screaming girls surrounding him?
I smile to myself as I remember what I managed to catch last night after out celebratory dinner for him.
Flashback
"Daisuke, could you please take this out for Sasuke? It's just some food for him to take back to his place" Mother says as she handed several bento boxes all wrapped up together.
"Heir to the great Kurokawa Clan and you're making me deliver food to a child!" I say dramatically as I got up from my seat and took the food from her.
"Oh don't be a child!" Mother laughs as she lightly slaps my arm once I reach her. I feign hurt taking the food from her and making my way to where Sasuke and Azumi are sitting outside. I finally catch sight of them sitting down on the porch just staring at the sky in utter silence.
I never understood how those two can just sit with each other silently for so long, seems so boring I think as I reach closer but stop in my steps as I notice Azumi break the silence and hand Sasuke a gift. A mischievous smile growing on my face as Sasuke pulls her into a hug resulting in her turning a bright red.
Oh?
I chuckle silently to myself before turning around not wanting to disturb their moment and deciding to give Sasuke his food later.
Little Azumi is growing up
End of Flashback
"Ah, most promising new student, Sasuke Uchiha, is that him?" Kakashi asks observing the glass intently, his voice pulling me out of my thoughts.
"Yes, he's the one" Lord Hokage replies from his seat.
"He's the only survivor left from the Uchiha Clan" Kurenai states from another area in the room. Every single jonin in the room is fixated on the boy showing through the ball.
"He'll be a tough one to have on your team that's for sure" I mutter as I think back to the boy I've basically watched growing up. I had spent much of my childhood training with both Itachi and Sasuke. And when tragedy struck the Uchiha Clan, I had stayed and continued to help Sasuke with his training. His drive for revenge is so strong that being his Sensei will not be easy, especially if they aren't able to teach him anything he deems worthy.
We all continue to look into the glass orb as a new face has entered the mix. The Uzumaki boy is now squating on Sasuke's desk in front of him. The two of them glaring at each other. Their faces very close to each other until another kid in front of Naruto moved his arm resulting in him accidentally knocking Naruto forward.
I try to fight the laughter which is beginning to bubble up in my chest at the sight in front of me. All attempts ending up in failure as I burst out in full blown laughter, the shinobi around me in shock silence at what we were all witnessing.
The boy in front of them had pushed Naruto on to Sasuke, causing them to kiss.
Oh poor Azumi, looks like Sasuke's first kiss has been taken, I think to myself as I begin to try and regain my composure due to the odd looks I was beginning to get from some of the others present.
"As usual Naruto is right in the middle of some kind of trouble" Lord Hokage says, the shock also evident in his voice.
I smirk to myself already completely disinterested in the rest of the meeting and plotting exactly how I am going to inform my sister of this.
Maybe in front of Sasuke?
I grin to myself evilly, ever since Sasuke was young I've always enjoyed annoying the boy. Especially when it would result in Azumi having to rush to his defense.
This is going to be so fun
Azumi's POV
I can't focus at all, I mentally groan as I close the book in front of me. I didn't have any private sessions with any of my Senseis so I was told to just read and continue to study up on the Village's history. However, my mind kept wandering towards my friends at the academy. I heard from my brother that they will be sorted into teams today. It was already getting later on in the day so they should be done at the academy soon.
My thoughts are then interrupted by the sound of a knock on the door.
"Come in" I call out opening the book in front of me again quickly in case it's my Mother checking in on my studying. I'm currently in the mini library within our home where I normally have my private sessions with Tamayo-Sensei.
"Good afternoon little sister! How would you care for some ramen today?" My brother says happily taking a seat across from me. I raise a brow in suspicion at him at his oddly good mood.
This can't be good... he doesn't even like eating outside as he prefers eating at home
"What's the occasion?" I ask, closing the book again and leaning back in my seat as I fold my arms.
"Out of the goodness of my heart I've decided to treat Sasuke's team to dinner! What a good chance it is for us to be well acquainted with people who will be a very big part of Sasuke's life from now on don't you think?" He says with an innocent smile.
Too innocent.
I nod slowly still not fully understanding what exactly it is that he is planning but liking the idea of meeting Sasuke's team.
"Yeah, meeting his team sounds nice" I say.
"Great!" he replies instantly reaching across the table and taking my arm in his. My eyes widen at what I realize he is about to do before I close them shut tightly.
I open my eyes again to see that he has used a teleportation jutsu, and now we are on the rooftop of the academy, three faces looking up at us in shock. My stomach begins to tighten a bit as I bend over slightly to catch my breath. This being one of my symptoms my parents had mentioned before, my body doesn't react well to chakra being manipulated within me so brother's jutsu didn't sit right. He gives me a slight pat on the back in silent question to check if I am alright, I nod and give him a small smile.
"What are you doing here?" Sasuke asks glaring at my brother as he comes to stand next to me, checking whether I'm alright. I give him a reassuring smile as I stand up straight. The uneasiness in my gut beginning to subside. Short distance teleportation doesn't affect me as much as long distance which is why brother was confident is using it.
"Azumi!" Naruto exclaimed happily running towards me and grabbing my hand to shake it. I laugh at his gesture greeting him in return.
"Can't you watch where you're going loser?" Sasuke says annoyed at the blue eyed ninja for shoving him.
"Naruto! You passed! Congratulations!" I say quickly before Naruto has a chance to retaliate. He chuckles happily as he begins to show off his headband, gaining an eye roll from Sasuke and a giggle from me.
"It suits you Naruto"
"So what are you doing here again?" Sasuke says, bringing the attention back to my brother who hadn't yet answered his question.
"So glad you asked Sasuke! In celebration of you all being a team I have found it in the goodness of my heart to treat you all to Ichirakus! So of course I had to drag Azumi along to join the fun" Brother declares with a wide smile, spreading his arms out. I narrow my eyes at him slightly still trying to figure out his true motive. I make eye contact with Sasuke and he seems like he's trying to do the same thing.
"U-um who are you guys?" A girl with long pink hair and turquoise eyes says from behind. She must be the last member of their team.
She's pretty, I think to myself as I blush slightly embarrassed that I didn't introduce myself to her sooner.
I give her a welcoming smile as I walk towards her holding a hand out.
"Hello! I am Azumi Kurokawa, and this here is my brother Daisuke. What's your name?" I ask as she takes my hand slowly and shakes it. I notice the way her eyes seem to flicker towards something behind me.
"I'm Sakura Haruno, it's really nice to meet you" she replies a bit shyly, I smile at her agreeing.
"It looks like you'll have a lot on your hands with this team Sakura" I giggle as the two of us watch Naruto begin to argue with Sasuke again. She nods with a laugh in response.
"So where did Kakashi run off to?" Brother questions from where he was standing, his arms folded behind him.
"Kakashi-Sensei left right before you all arrived" Sakura replied.
"Ah that Kakashi, would've been way more fun if he were here to witness it" my brother mutters silently to himself, however I was just close enough to him to hear. I stare at him with a brow raised in question as he places a not so innocent smile on his face.
"Let's get a move on to Ichirakus shall we?"
~ * ~
"No no sit there" Brother says rushedly pushing me to sit in between Naruto and Sasuke. Sasuke and I both give my brother another annoyedly suspicious look. The seating arrangement ended up starting with Sakura, Sasuke, me, Naruto and then my brother.
As we all got to ordering and waiting for our food Naruto began telling be about all his favourite ramen flavors and the best combinations he would try. I sat listening to him completely interested in how passionate one could be about Naruto. Sakura sat next to Sasuke trying to strike up conversation with him but was met with either one word replies or no reply at all.
"Thank you for the food!" We all say in unison as our food is handed to all of us.
Looks delicious I think to myself as pick up my chopsticks to begin eating.
"So Naruto is there anybody you fancy?" My brother says, completely disregarding his ramen and leaning his head on one hand as he looks at Naruto.
"What do you mean fancy?" Naruto says, his mouth full of noodles. I silently eat my noodles while also listening to their conversation. Sasuke and Sakura doing the same.
"You know, is there someone you like?" Daisuke presses on, now picking up his chopsticks and beginning to mix his ramen. A wide smile on his face as he waits for Narutos response. I stop eating to look at Naruto and wait for his response as well. He stops eating, his face now red as he throws a quick glance towards Sakura.
So he likes Sakura huh? I think to myself with a smile as I too look at the pinkette who is looking at Sasuke who is still eating his ramen silently.
"I'll take that as a yes" Daisuke says leaning on his hand to get a better look at all of us. I've stopped eating and is now staring right at Daisuke with obvious question in my eyes.
Where is he getting with this conversation?
"So have you had your first kiss Naruto?" Daisuke adds, his smile growing bigger which I didn't think was even possible at this point. As he finished asking his question all three of the ninja around me started coughing, choking on their food. Their faces looking horror stricken. I quickly grabbed some napkins in front of me, handing them to Sasuke and Naruto who took it from me and began wiping their mouths. Sasuke glaring threateningly at Daisuke who winked back at him.
"W-what d-do you mean first kiss" Naruto yelled back at Daisuke, regaining his composure.
"Who was the lucky person?" Daisuke asks, an evil smile on his face as he leans in closer, his eyes flickering back towards Sasuke and Sakura who are both now sitting there with a dangerous aura around them.
Why do I feel like the only clueless person here
"Tsk, you're wasting our time with this conversation" Sasuke says annoyedly turning away from my brother and glaring at his food.
"Agh! What are you guys even talking about? Is there something I don't know about?" I questioned, hating being the odd one out in this conversation.
"Why don't you ask Sasuke dear sister" Brother says, a happy smile on his face. Naruto quickly faces me instead of my brother and starts shaking his head in silent warning not to ask anything. However curiosity got the better of me.
"Sasuke?" I ask moving to look at Sasuke, who is avoiding eye contact with me and just continues to glare at his food.
"You want me to tell you Azumi? Fine! Naruto kissed Sasuke today!" Sakura yelled from the other side, already fed up with the conversation as well. Her glare burning through Naruto who was shaking his head nervously obviously not wanting her to have said that out loud.
"Y-you two kissed?" I asked in shock, my finger pointing between the two of them.
"Ahh! It was an accident! And it was pretty disgusting anyways! I feel sorry for whoever will end up marrying that guy!" Naruto yelled out looking disgusted at Sasuke who was glaring back at him.
"Naruto! Don't say that about my Sasuke!" Sakura scolds him from the other side, raising a threatening first. I watch the three of them in amusement as I begin to giggle, which then turns into full blown laughter. It stops Naruto and Sakura's banter as they stare at me trying to control my laughter.
"I see now why you brought us all together for a meal brother. Who would've thought that Sasuke's first kiss would be Naruto" I say in a fit of laughter, my stomach beginning to hurt. Sasuke now taking to glaring at me instead which didn't help my laughing fit.
"I would've liked a bit more drama in your reaction. I'm disappointed sister" Daisuke says, a look of mock boredom on his face.
"Sorry to disappoint big brother" I say when I am done laughing.
I rest my face on one of my hands as I look at Sasuke who still hasn't said a word, silently glaring at me. However, I can tell he is not angry. I use my other hand to poke Sasuke's cheek, missing the way Sakura's eyes narrowed at my actions.
"Who would've thought" I say with another giggle, smiling at Sasuke. He continues to glare at me however this time with a light blush on his face, probably from the embarrassment of the situations.
It's moments like these that I wish I could last forever, I think blocking out Naruto, Sakura and my brothers bantering.
