"Ok…" Jiraiya breathed as he opened the book again, "That’s it! The main event!"
He took another deep breath before reading the next few lines, the lines that he had been eager to read and waited for rather impatiently.
"Asking her out: 1. Be confident in yourself. If you are not, how can she be confident in both of you together in a relationship? Hmm… that makes sense. Look at yourself in a positive way, and believe that you are Mr. Right." Jiraiya read aloud, he nodded to himself and confirmed the information in his head, "2.Practice what you will say, in the mirror: imagine that you are the shy girl that you want to ask out. 3. Approach her coolly"
He stepped to the mirror and looked at his own reflection doing his best to pretend it was actually the slim black haired shinobi staring back at him.
-Hey, Oro, I thought… umm… you and I- “No no no I’m Mr. Right! Be confident!" he raised his eyebrows, -Hey babe! Wanna go out?-
He winked at his own reflection to add extra confidence to his question.
-Uhh,ohh! Jiraiya you are the best!- Jiraiya mumbled, saying what he believed the other would say, he put a dark scarf on his head, imitating Orochimaru’s hair.
-Hmm, I know!
-Stop staring at me ...My face gets red!
-Don’t need to be shy, babe! You're with the right man!
-So strong and confident!
-Nah!
-Ahh! Let’s kiss.
-Not so fast, Orocat!
The opening of the door sounded in the background, -Jiraiya?
-Uhh, I was just… doing some exercises.- Jiraiya stuttered as he met the golden lair of eyes waiting for a validated response.
-I see. Do you feel cold?- He asked.
-What?
-The scarf…- Orochimaru mused.
--Oh, this?- He stammered, then he quickly put it back in to its place.
-Never mind.- Orochimaru dismissed.
-How did you get here? Were you standing here all the time?- Jiraiya asked hoping his cheeks weren't red.
-I thought you’d be happy to see me, anyway.- Orochimaru replied leaning on the wall.
-I definitely am! But…- Jiraiya was evidently speechless.
-I just arrived,- he lied, - I knocked, but you didn’t open, so I came in. Sarutobi wants to see us.
-Fine.- The toad sage said as he sighed. He wished that his friend had come to see him.
-Hurry!- The snake summoner chuckled. He didn’t know what to think about what he heard.
----------------------
-You wanted to see us, sensei?- asked Tsunade.
-Yes. A wealthy man and his family, respectful friends of Konoha asked us a little favour.- The Hokage replied.
-Again?- asked Orochimaru.
-They would like the three of you to accompany them on their way home.- The elder said.
We are shinobi, not their personal bodyguards.- Orochimaru interrupted him.
-Orochimaru. Watch your words.- The Hokage warmed his student as he stood up, -Besides, they pay well. Aren’t you the one who always complains about the salary?
-Three legendary ninja doing what Chunin can do. It seems a mockery of our talent. But it's your order so fine.- Orochimaru hissed as he left, putting his backpack on. The family was waiting outside.
----------------------
-Nah, Oro! It’s not that bad!- said Tsunade. They were walking in front of the the family.
-It’s just…
-Think of it as a trip!- tried Jiraya.
-What else could I do?- he sighed, -But I have a lot of unfinished work.
“Forget about those damned papers!” Was what Jiraiya wanted to shout but instead he replied, -How about taking a day off?
He put his hand on Orochimaru’s shoulder causing the shorter male to glance up at him.
-Can I really do that?- Orochimaru muttered.
-It only depends on you.- Tsunade said.
-I’ll talk about it with Sarutobi.- Orochimaru said.
-Or… how about doing something together after this?- Jiraiya tried.
-After this?- Orochimaru asked.
-They only live in the neighbour village, not at the world’s end! We’ll be home soon!- Jiraiya exclaimed.
-Fine.- Orochimaru agreed.
-Wow! You handled it very well, Jiraiya!- Tsunade whispered to him.
On the rest of their trip they both were thinking about the night that awaited them.
------------------------
On the way home, Jiraiya saw a new bar on the outskirts. It instantly caught his eye as he walked beside his team.
-Would you like a drink?- He asked the golden eyed male.
-Yes, thanks.- Orochimaru said, he was a bit surprised, although he was happy that the other man didn't overdo it and makes everything more difficult.
-Tsunade?
-I’m… tired. I guess I’ll go home, and have a rest.- Tsunade said with a small smile, she knew she was happy enough knowing they would get some time alone.
-Are you sure?- Orochimaru asked.
-Yes.- She yawned, -Have a good time, guys!
-Bye.- They parted ways with her and entered the pub and sat down at a nearby table by a window. Orochimaru felt at ease in Jiraiya's presence as he found the other man was acting far more civil, was acting in a way which made him feel calm.
-I'll go get drinks, I know what you like.- Jiraiya said as he got up from the table. Orochimaru watched him with a light smile before agreeing. He watched the larger male leave and ran his fingers through his dark hair before looking up from his daze when he felt men approach him.
-What do you think you're doing?- One man barked, the attack of words startled the shinobi.
-Excuse me?- He asked, unaware of what the problem was.
-We don't want your kind around here.- Another man snapped, -get out of here snake!
-Do you think your threats scare me?- Orochimaru asked his eyes now narrowed.
-If you're not we can show you why you should be.- One man stated coming closer.
-Get the fuck out before we make you.- A man snapped coming too close to the black haired male for comfort. The entire ordeal had shifted the snake summoner’s mood into a much darker one. He didn't get to his feet, he didn't have to, these were mere thugs. Nothing more than Genin compared to him. He allowed chakara to flow around him and the men opposing him, the potent energy was black and purple and it moved around like snakes slipping around everyone threateningly. The men were put on edge, they were not convinced they should give up and walk away yet until the snake summoner stepped it up a notch by summoning real snakes. They hissed in unison and slithered around the men their large constricting bodies dangerously coiling tighter. That was enough for the men to realize they shouldn't have confronted the superior ninja.
One man gestured for his friends to run and they backed away before saying, -just remember we don't fucking want you here.
Orochimaru felt his stomach in a knot as he let his chakara disappear. He should have killed them, he usually would have ended their existence for daring. However he did not. His mind jumped back to the present as Jiraiya pulled up with two drinks in his hands. Orochimaru met his happy eyes and instantly did not wish to ruin the mood by bringing up the harsh encounter. It had left him feeling awful inside, but he tried to hide his true feelings.
-Here.- Jiraiya said handing the other a drink.
-Thanks. It's the right one as well.- Orochimaru said as he took a sip.
Jiraiya carried on their conversation as if nothing had happened, as he had truly no clue what was going through his friends head. Orochimaru in turn tried his best to mask his disturbed thinking. He shifted in his seat uncomfortably knowing everyone else in the room wanted him gone, wanted him to not exist. He realized then and there, that not a single person regarded him as human. They would simply pull him out like a weapon when they needed him. They hated him but they knew he was useful, so they used him. A mere weapon to be utilized but thrown away when it was no longer needed.
-Something the matter?- Jiraiya finally asked picking up the difference in the other’s eyes.
-No-no nothing. Sorry... I got distracted is all.- He smiled lightly and took another sip of his drink, all the while noting every pair of narrowed eyes in the room.
