The Shinobi Residences district is one of many housing districts throughout Uzushiogakure. Save for the fact that it primarily houses the ninjas of the village and their families it is very similar to any other residential area in the village. Towering complexes of apartments dot the skyline. The ground level at the streets often have small shops or food vendors and the streets themselves are made of stone blocks. In the case of the Shinobi Residences, streams often flow down the center of the pathways.

It hadn't been a long day at all. The Sun peaked through some clouds in the sky and shined down on a part of the village that included an open window with a young redheaded girl sitting at a desk reading about the preparation of different styles of flowers. As each page turned, slowly, one at a time, the girl seemed to understand a bit more about it. As a gust came about suddenly and swung the book's pages further ahead of where she was, and caught her hair in her face at the same time, she would move at a frantic pace until she returned herself to normal. Instantly she was confused by what she was looking at until she could go back a few pages until she found her original spot.
A small bookmark would be taken from underneath the book and placed inside as the same girl took a pair of gloves from her lap and began to put them upon her bare hands. As she finished, she would take her hand and open the drawer before her, switching the book on the table with a pouch of ninja weaponry. With simple movements, the young redhead would attach the pouch to her right leg and stand to her feet. It stayed in place and she was ready to move on to training task number two, for today.
With a quick and fluid motion, she put herself behind the chair and was now looking at herself in the mirror. There she would give herself a thumbs up and a quick smile. "Hello to you, Nanako Tobiume. Today you're going to get even better." She couldn't help but let out a slight giggle as she continued to give herself a morale boost first thing. She learned one flower arrangement first so now she'd learn one shuriken technique to equal it out. It was time to have fun.
Nanako would move over to the window and lean ever so slightly out to see if anyone was around. A few quick glances and she was in the clear. With some extra strength, she would hop out of the window and down onto the ground below. It was a one story home, so it wasn't such a great feat; however, Nanako was very proud of herself for it. No one was around to notice her so she would learn the yard and head towards the center of town and then towards the training grounds of the Academy. It was a safe place her mother would never find her.

Man this girl was turning out to be a real pain in his a**. However, for some reason he did not mind it. He could take her verbal abuse without a problem. So assuming she was capable of following him through the winding streets of the residential district he continued on. Giving a polite wave and or a bow to the not insignificant number of people who greeted him he continued on until he reached the building which held his apartment. Thankfully, his apartment was on the ground floor of the building which meant he did not have to climb the stairs in heavy armor. Pushing his key into the lock he pushed open the door and headed in. Making sure to tilt his spear forward so that it would not catch on the doorway. As he walked into the foyer he extended a hand into the air and patted the exposed beam. The beam had a very deeply engraved phrase,"What man is a man who does not make the world a better place." It was something he lived by and it meant a great deal to him. Reaching the center of the ground floor he smile,"Its not much but its home." Gesturing to the right,"Bathroom is down the hall to the right. You got your choice of a bath or shower. There is a closet in the bathroom with a washer and dryer for your clothes. Since obviously I don't have anything for you to change into. Towels are set out in the bathroom. If you need more than one, same closet as the washer. Since I dont actually have a guest room that isn't occupied by a ton of weapons and armor racks, you can have mine for the night. I'll take the couch. Dinner will be ready in about twenty minutes. Any requests?"

Nope, he would take it back. Pain in his a** wasn't even close to what she was. A pain in the a** would have the common graces to not strip entirely naked in front of him. When she told him to get a good look he shrugged,"Eh seen better." Despite his appearances, and how he worded it. Behind the stone layer of his self control he was screaming inside. She had one hell of a body but he would never ever let her know. Once she had trotted off he let out a heavy sigh and attempted to relax in the slightest. Making his way down the hall he pushed open the door into the room which he stored his arms and armor. Yet again going through the process of disarming and removing the armor he was soon finished in short order. Heading back into the foyer he quickly crossed the room into his bedroom and changed. Folding his clothes neatly he set them to the side for washing later on. In their place, he donned a black skintight shirt which showed his physical strength quite well. Paired with a pair of jet black pants and socks.
Returning to the foyer he noticed her pile of clothing and let out a sigh. Picking up the pile he headed back to the laundry room and tossed them into the washer/drier. Calling into the bathroom so that she could hear,"You clothes should be out of the drier in about twenty minutes, so right about the time you should be done in there." On the way back to the kitchen a thought dawned on him. Why the ******** did he care about her clothing. Why the ******** was he going to cook for her? She had treated him like a right piece of s**t. Yet here he was being taken advantage of for a free shower room and board.
Gods above she pissed him off something fierce. Heading into the kitchen he pulled open the fridge and looked at what he had available. He had pork steaks, plenty of rice, beef steaks, shrimp, mahi mahi, tuna steaks. Plenty of things to cook. So after a moment he settled on the beef steaks and shrimp. Pulling them out he gathered what he would need. Virgin olive oil, fresh parsley sprigs, a bit of butter, thyme, and lemon. Next he set the rice cooker to make an extra large portion since he had a sneaking suspicion that she would be able to eat damn near as much as him. No idea why but a suspicion. Reaching into the fridge he pulled out a beer and cracked open the can. Taking a long drought he sighed heavily. Man he loved the taste of that beer.
With the shrimps in one pan and the steaks in another he added the lemon to the shrimp, and the butter, thyme and parsley with the steaks. The combined spices and seasonings would release an incredible aroma which honestly made his stomach growl. When the steaks were done he removed them from the pan and set them upon a serving tray. With deft work, he sliced them into strips ranging from rare to well done. For the shrimp, he would add a bit of butter to the pan, and crank the heat up. Shaking the pan he would toss the shrimp and lightly caramelize the outside of them to give them a nice crunch. Setting the serving plates, utensils and the rice cooker by the table in the living room he took a seat with his beer. Though after a time he slowly started massaging the forearm on his left arm. The bones in which had been shattered during the Kyuubi's attack and it never really healed fully. From time to time it would bother him.

When she finally returned he let out a heavy sigh at her state. Why the hell did he expect any different. Though when she complimented the food he smirked,"First, not actually a virgin though I doubt you give a ********. Second thank you, I have a passion for cooking." Gathering a plate of his own he popped a couple of shrimps into his mouth and washed them down with a shot of beer. Speaking of, when she told him to get her more he ******** that, I dont mind cooking, and sharing my place but I'm not your servant, get it yourself. You know where the beer is and the vodka is in the lower portion of the freezer. Keeps it chilled but not enough to freeze it." Holding his plate in such a way as to block what wasnt covered by her towel he tried to eat in peace and decency. Granted with a literally naked woman that was unlikely to happen. Though a curious question from the woman about his arm elicited a raised brow. Setting down the plate he sighed,"I shattered the radius and ulna during the fighting against the Kyuubi. Those, three ribs, fractured my skull, and left shin. I was tasked with defending the second ranks, medics, jutsu slingers, wounded and the like. So I had to place myself directly in the path of that things rage every time it went after them. Five minutes in fractured the radius and ulna. Ten minutes later my shin. Five more minutes later my shield was shattered along with my arm and ribs and the skull fracture. I got ragdolled just before it was sealed. Keep in mind I was a new gennin at the time. But I held the line, not a single one of them were killed. I say thats worth the wounds. With the war swinging into full just after, I did not have time to properly rehab or heal it. I wasn't about to let the medics waste chakra on a wound like that when they had far worse to deal with. So this bit of suffering is the price I get to pay for doing my duty." Setting his beer down he silently returned to his food munching on a piece of medium rare steak with a shrimp on it on a bed of rice.

Ignoring her comment about wanting to look at her bending over he turned his attention to his plate as she walked back to his kitchen. Returning with what he assumed was the last of his beer, he listened to what she had to say. Was she drunk? She was being way too friendly, yup definitely drunk. Now he had this to deal with. Why didn't he just force her to go to sleep? Was it even remotely possible he was enjoying this womans company? Unlikely, but theoretically possible. Shaking his head at her words he spoke lightly,"If I let them get hurt because I was afraid to put my body, life, and career on the line, then I would be no better than a coward. It is the oath of a guardian." Lifting his beer he continued,"Be without fear in the face of your enemies. Be brave and upright that the Gods may love thee. Speak the truth always, even if it leads to your death. Safeguard the helpless and do no wrong. That is our oath." Without hesitation he tilted his head back and slammed his beer without stopping.
Though when she hit threw her towel at him he simply let it sit on his face for a moment knowing full well what he would see should he take it off. She was lonely, how could he ignore that? Like for real what the ******** kind of request was that. If she was actually drunk, she would not have had the wherewithal to tell him to ignore her. Which meant what she said was the truth and she was legitimately asking what he thought of her. Sighing heavily he finally spoke,"The body is not as important as the soul it houses. That being said its a really nice house." There was no way in hells he was going to straight out say that she was sexy. Not even close. Granted he knew full well she was gonna be able to put that together. Picking up the plates he quickly put them into the sink in the kitchen.
On his way back towards the couch he pulled his shirt off and tossed it next to the couch before flopping onto it with a heavy sigh,"Sleep well Orupoka. Its gonna be a long day tomorrow and we have a lot of work to do. I'll whip up something for breakfast in the morning." Being face down on the couch gave her, if she was still there, a good look at his back, and the tattoo upon it. It was an engraved and detailed shield. Upon it several names and dates were written upon scroll work.

This had been one hell of a long day, and a weird one at that. To see her go from literally threatening to kill him, to asking if she could effectively cuddle with him. What the ******** was up with this girl. Though if she was telling the truth, he did feel bad for her. If it actually helped her, then it meant that she was dealing with some serious s**t during the nights she was alone. Part of him wanted to be petty and tell her to go ******** herself as payback for the way she treated him earlier in the day. Patting the back of the couch with a grown he pushed himself up off the couch. At this point he just did not care, he wanted to sleep.
Bending down and picking up his shirt he tossed it over his shoulder and waved,"Come on then. You got some balls you know that. Threatening to kill me, saying I disgust you, then asking to hold me." Pushing open his bedroom door he went straight to the closet and pulled out a kimono of his. It was a black silk meant to go under an oyori to prevent chaffing. Tossing it to her,"Warning it smells like me. As does my bed." Without another word he quite literally flopped onto his bed face first. With his face buried into the pillow he mumbled,"What do you want me to do?"

She was being way too nice frankly. Rolling onto his side so that she could get comfortable in whatever way she desired. The fact her breasts were pressing against his back wasn't something he was unaware of. Though he did not let his awareness show. Then came the part that threw him off. By the time she finished speaking he knew full well, without question, that this was gonna be a long, long, month. Cause there was no way he was getting rid of her. Letting out a light sigh he spoke softly,"Lilah. I cant promise you that. I cant fight a war against an emperor by myself. The UHV happily. But Shiro's another matter entirely. But I do promise that, as long as you behave, I'll be right here. I cant turn my back on someone who needs me, no matter how big a pain in my a** they are." With that he closed his eyes and attempted to drift off. Course if she wanted to keep talking he would make the effort to stay awake.

Despite the fact he was dead tired, the moment her breathing picked up, his eyes shot open. He wasn't used to having someone in his bed let alone someone with issues. This kinda thing was not in the handbook. So he simply lay there until she shot upright. Though her words. It was like a puzzle. One that filled him with an anger which was indescribable once completed. Her comments about his gaze, her behavior, her mild/excessive nudity. The specificity of her request for her to touch him but not touch her. He did not even want to put it into words. What he wanted was to find the guy and beat him to death with his own spinal column. Sitting up he swung his legs off the side of the bed,"Do you want me to stay? I can sleep on the couch and the door locks from the inside." It was a simple question but one which he treated with great respect. Whatever he did he would not address it directly. Not until she was the one to bring it up.
