Careful, I bite. Chapter 25

Masterlist

We heard back from my grandparents, and they were ecstatic for me to move into the old house again. They were especially intrigued when I told them about Tobi a little; with his permission of course; but when I say grandpa was a little skeptical, I mean it. After Rio, he is on high alert with anyone I decide to date. I already know he's going to interrogate Tobi which I'm dreading truthfully, but if it gives them peace of mind and helps them accept Tobi, then so be it.

Anyways, Grandpa said he spoke to Clair as soon as he got my message, and she was going to meet us at the house to go over a few repairs they were needing to do to the house. He said we could either decide to do it ourselves or hire people, but they would pay for it as a gift, a homecoming present, they said. I had texted Alex to let her know our plans before we got ready, only needing a few minutes, but I still frown at seeing she hadn't responded to my text. Oh well, she is literally just downstairs, so I'll just tell her on our way out.

We walked down the stairs, I had told Tobi how my grandparent's house was a little closer to a small town, which would have all necessary things like grocery stores, a doctors office, etc.. So we would only be about a 15-20 minute drive from there, which was always nice. He seemed to not mind that, stating the city didn't feel as good as it did out here with just how many people are in the busy streets. He was a big introvert, preferring to stay in his solitude while doing tasks. Though he never complained when I was with him so it seemed.

I walked over to the living room, peaking my head in to see a slightly suspicious looking Alex and Madara sat together on the couch, although Madara seemed too busy marking her neck to care about my presence.

"You get my text?" I asked her, watching as her face turned red was so amusing.

"Y-yea." She said, carefully making me snicker. "Tell Clair I said hi." She said, making me smile, nodding before Tobi and I left the house. 

"I'm glad we can get out of there for a while. I'd much rather it be just us for a bit." Tobi said, a hand around my waist as he kissed my forehead. I blushed and smiled, unlocking the car, then getting in and starting it, immediately turning the heat on. Forgot to warm up the car, right.

"Is that because Madara, or because you actually wanted to be alone with me?" I asked jokingly, his cheeks turning red as he looked at me slightly offended.

"What- no. Of course, I wanted to be alone with you." He sputtered, but I gave him a look, and he looked away. "Fine. It was partially because of him." He mumbled, making me smile, leaning over and kissing his cheek. I stayed leaned over as I looked at him in his flustered state, grinning at but cute he looked so embarrassed.

"How about, every time he pisses you off or anything, you come to me, and I'll let you take that anger out on me." I muttered in his ear, kissing the side of his neck as he seemed to freeze.

"Max, I-" He seemed hesitant now, but the blush on his cheeks and growing bulge in his pants wasn't pausing with his words. "I feel it would be inappropriate.. considering what we were talking about earlier.." He said, getting quieter as he spoke when I gave a big sigh as I pulled back.

"Look, if you think it's a big thing and you need to process it, say that, but I'm fine." I said, but he still looked skeptical. I put a hand on his cheek and smiled softly at him. "You are not either of those men, and I know that. For the last time, I trust you, Tobirama. I'm okay with being sexual after these conversations because it is with you. The one person I actually feel safe with. I trust you, Tobi." I said calmly, trying to stress the meaning and establish a better line of communication for us. He stared at me for a moment before sighing, putting his own hand over mine on his cheek, leaning into it as he gave a small smile and nodded.

"Okay.. I think I can live with that." He said, my own small smile spreading before I leaned in to kiss him.

"And I'm serious." I said, pulling back to look at him. "He pisses you off, you are more then welcome to take your anger out on me; as long as it ends with us in bed together, feel free to do whatever you please." I said kissing his lips once more before pulling away with a smirk, carefully starting our adventure to my grandparents house as he sat there with his erection still burning for me, my core in no better shape. Well, before he had me pull over just before we reached the house..

------------------------------------

"Maxie!" Clair cheered as we stepped out of the car, my cheeks turning pink as I smiled sheepishly.

"Hey, sorry we're a little late." I said, going to hug her, her husband Hunter leaning against his truck.

"Oh, don't worry about it! We just did a quick sweep of the exterior and the guest house." She said, making me grin. 

"I almost forgot about the guest house." I laughed, fond memories in there when all the adults wanted a night of drinking, so they'd just stick all us kids in the guest house for a sleepover with pizza, juice, and hamburgers. We were all passed out and dog piled together by the time our parents checked on us early in the morning. "How's it look?" I asked, remembering the windows needed redoing, along with the trim and the doors needed re-staining.

"Looks worse than it is. Covered in dust and a little mossy on the outside, but other than everything it needed before, it's all good." Hunter said, coming over to wrap an arm around Clair before he smiled at Tobi. "Ah, yes. We were told Max now had a boyfriend. That's you, I assume?" He asked, Tobirama looking at him awkwardly before looking at me.

"Yes, this is indeed my boyfriend." I said, hugging his arm as he blushed faintly.

"I'm Hunter Jameson. This is my wife Clair. I'm sure you've heard by now that these two are cousins." He said, holding a hand out for Tobi to shake which he took, a quite stoic look to him face, though with me on his arm, his features couldn't help but soften a slight bit.

"I have indeed. I am Tobirama Senju, I'm afraid I have yet to hear much about the two of you." He said, pulling me gently into his side as I grinned a little. Clair furrowed her brows at him and looked at Hunter. 

"Why have I heard that name before?" She asked him, though he could only shrug.

"I've never heard of it." He said, she could only roll her eyes before smiling at Tobi. 

"It's a pleasure to meet you, Tobirama." She said. He nodded to her, and she turned to me, clapping her gloved hands. "Now, where do you want to start?" She asked me, a grin on my face as we started in our inspection, Tobirama mainly looking at all the old memories hung on the walls and around the rooms. Art from the kids and grandkids, both individual and group photo's for everyone and their families, crocheted blankets, paintings, a mineral oil lamp one of my uncles had made hung up in the kitchen windowsill; it was all memories to me and Clair.

The walls were a navy blue, with brass and old gold leaf accents, making it have a royal yet vintage feel, the cabinets a stained walnut with black countertops. I grinned as I saw it, remembering when I'd cook and bake with my family in here. I was just looking out the window when I looked down a little and realized the tiny flower paintings I'd make as a kid on the window sill and random places in the house were still there.

"Hey Clair, remember when I painted tiny things around the house until Grandma noticed?" I asked her, she came over and smiled.

"Oh yea!" She said before she paused. "Wait, where's the ladybug?" She asked, looking under the top cupboards before she cheered. 

"Found it!" She laughed, it was one she had asked for. A yellow Ladybug. There were a few around the house, but she made me promise, this would be the only yellow one, because it was hers.

"What is it?" Hunter asked, coming over and looking under before he chuckled. "Yellow Ladybug? Why?" He asked as he stood back up. She grinned as Tobi looked at the ivy vines painted on the window sill.

"I was obsessed with them as a kid. Convinced I was somehow connected to them or something, so I made her swear I would have the only yellow ladybug in the whole house." She said happily, he chuckled and put an arm around her.

"Is that also why you have a trail of them tattooed on your shoulder?" He asked, and she nodded, wringing her hands together.

"Exactly why." She said, I chuckled. "Max was always the artist growing up. I don't think anyone in this family can paint and draw as good as you." She said as I blushed, waving her off.

"Nah, grandma has some amazing paintings up in the attic. She's way better than me." I said. She chuckled and rolled her eyes.

"She's better at everything compared to the rest of the family." Claire laughed, I grinned and laughed too, knowing she was right. Our grandma was like the head of the family, but we'll never tell Grandpa that. Heh.

"Why don't you two go looking around and Claire and I will check the basement?" Hunter suggested to Tobi and I as we entered the main hall, just before the stairs. I looked at Tobirama, who merely gave a small nod and I grinned, taking his hand and Hunters offer for us to start our own exploration.

‐------‐------‐----------------

"This is certainly a big house." Tobirama said as we went from room to room looking at all the items collecting dust, the beautiful decor that will need to be cleaned, the cobwebs needed to be swept away. We were gonna do it all, and I couldn't wait to do it with Tobi. "How many rooms are here?" He asked, and I grinned, showing him the master bedroom, biggest in the whole house with an on-suite bathroom on the second floor.

"5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms. Then the guest is another 2 bed 1 bath." I said, seeing him nod as he overlooked the view of the forest and back yard this balcony had. "Whatcha thinkin' in that handsome head of yours?" I asked him, wrapping an arm around his side, his arm going around my shoulders as he gave me a light squeeze.

"7 bedrooms.. I thought Hashirama would end up with the big family home in the end." He said thoughtfully, not tone wasn't negative, but it was always a little hard to tell what Tobirama was thinking.

"Well, just because it's a big family home, doesn't mean we need a big family." I told him, looking up at him as he looked down at me, quiet for a moment before his eyes seemed to soften.

"I do not care about the size of our family, only that you are happy in it." He said, my chest warming at his words.

"You really want a family together someday?" I asked him, his eyes looking at me with an expression I don't think I've seen before.

"I believe I would," he said, smiling a little as he fully hugged me. "And I believe you would make an amazing mother." He mused, my eyes tearing up a slight bit before I playfully rolled my eyes.

"Oh yea, trying to start the babyfever early, are you?" I asked him, trying to play it off as he chuckled lightly.

"That depends. Do you want a baby?" He asked, and I paused, looking at him in slight shock.

"Are you serious?" I asked him, and he chuckled lightly and nodded.

"It could take some time just to get you pregnant, so starting now wouldn't hurt, I suppose." He joked lightly, my cheeks flushing red as I huffed. "As long as you are happy with this, I'm serious." He said sincerely, giving me a moment to take in his answer before I smiled slightly.

"I would love to have a family with you. However, I do feel we should wait until we are both ready for kids." I said, my words making him crack a soft, sweet smile.

"I was 39 when I became Hokage, and I have already lived one long life. I feel it would only be right for me to try and live the kind of life I couldn't before." He said, hugging me tight. "I was so busy with the village when I was last alive. Starting my own family was never a truly achievable dream until now." He sighed, kissing my forehead and holding me close. I grinned and pulled him down to kiss his chin, right over one of the red marks before laying my head on his chest.

"Well, you've got a lot of learning about this world before you'll be ready to raise a few kids with me." I said. He chuckled and nodded, kissing the top of my head.

"I believe there is a lot more to learn and experience that you will want to show me before we decide to have children." He said, and I looked at him with a grin.

"Oh, I am at least going to try and have you smoke at least once before we have kids. If our kids get curious when they are older about weed, I'd rather both of us know just how strongly it can affect a person. I know, but you don't." I said with a chuckle, Tobirama teasingly rolling his eyes with a small smile on his face.

"I suppose, if it is agreed to be a one-time only situation, and for the sake of our future children, I could be okay with this." He said after a moment of thought, I looked at him in surprise.

"Wait, really? I didn't think you'd actually agree." I blinked, Tobi smiling as he looked at me in amusement.

"You do make a good point. If our children gain an interest in it, I would much rather know just how inebriated they would be, alcohol seems to make people react very differently compared to alcohol." He said, making me chuckle, nodding.

"Yes, it does." I chuckled, my arms still wrapped around him before he sighed.

"You're going to love it when I smoke with you, won't you?" He asked, making me chuckle, nodding.

"Can we do it when we move in here officially? That way its just us here? No Madara to ruin the experience for you." I asked him and he gave it a moments thought before nodding.

"I believe that would be okay." He said, the both of us taking the last looks around before we needed to head off for the night, the visions of that house alive with our future family playing in our minds.

Careful, I bite. Chapter 24

Masterlist

I woke up early, the sun had barely risen in the sky. I blinked the sleep away from my eyes slowly, rolling my hips lightly to get rid of the stiff feeling in my muscles, only to gasp as I felt Tobi rub against my sweetspot, my hips twitching as I halted my movements. I pushed myself up, going to move off only to have Tobi's hands grab my hips as his now hard tip just barely sat in me, his sleepy eyes looking up at me as he gave a low growl.

"I didn't say you could get up." He said, voice raspy and deep from just waking up, it made a shiver go down my spine. I bit my lip and looked down at him, he pulled me down for a kiss, pushing me back down onto his cock as I moaned loudly. "You're right, this is very relaxing." He teased, grinning as I wiggled my hips, biting my lip as I mewled above him.

"Tobi!" I moaned, his lips capturing mine quickly before he pulled away and chuckled.

"Too loud, sweetheart." He mused raising me up again before thrusting me back down, his hips meeting mine as I shivered and kissed him needfully. I rolled my hips down in time with his thrusts, both of us setting a steady rhythm as I felt my swollen walls swallowing his dick with each push. "So tight." He groaned, a hand on my hip as the other was on my shoulder, he grit his teeth, a strained groan coming from his throat as I clamped down on him. I could already feel the slow coil winding in my stomach as he thrusted me down harder, tears forming in my eyes. It felt like he was splitting me in half in the best way possible, sending shocks of pure pleasure going through me as I cried into his mouth. One of his hands went to my clit and furiously rubbed it, my whole body starting to twitch and convulse as my hands raked down his abs.

"Please Tobi.." I whimpered, a broken sob coming from me as I felt so sensitive still from last night. "God, please.." I whined, tears in my eyes as I shook above him.

He stared at me in awe, almost seeming to slam me down harder on him as I threw my head back, my climax washing over me. His hand clamped over my mouth as I cried out, my body convulsing as I came, Tobi groaned and bit my collar to muffle his groan as he came inside me. We sat there still for a moment, our breathing calming down before I gave a soft whine, nuzzling into his neck. I felt so stuffed from last night and when I looked down, I blinked as I thought my eyes were tricking me as I pulled back from Tobi a bit. Was I bulging a little? How? I looked up to see Tobirama looking at my belly as well, the slight bulge ending right where his dick would be inside of me. He swallowed thickly and his hand slowly moved to press on my stomach, a small gasp sounding from me when I felt the pressure tighten, Tobi hissing slightly.

"So deep.." Tobi murmured, he had this aura as if he was in just pure bliss right now, almost in awe of what he was seeing. I whimpered, clenching as I felt him shift to sit up a little better, his hands finding my hips as he leaned up to kiss me, my arms wrapping around his shoulders while he caressed my skin. We sat in silence until we had both calmed down, his hand rubbing my back slowly as I gave his neck featherlight kisses with my head on his shoulder; he let out a small sigh after a moment before kissing the side of my head and neck, burying his nose in my hair. "I guess the brat can be a good girl." He muttered playfully. I whimpered, hugging him tighter as I felt a shiver go down my spine at the pet name, nuzzling my nose into his skin making him hum in amusement.

"Do you like that name? Good girl?" He asked, I nodded slightly, whining as I wiggled my hips lightly, his hand gliding up and down my back as the other rested on my hip. "Calm down, you know we can't spend all day like this." He said and I sighed, kissing his neck again before leaning up to kiss him softly.

"I know." I murmured, looking at him as my face flushed pink. "It's not my fault you're so addicting." I said, his lips twitching into a smile as he ran a hand through my hair.

"Just wait until we have our own place. Then we can spend however long we want like this." He said making me grin.

"That sounds perfect."

---------------------------------------

When we got dressed and headed downstairs, Alex was in there making some coffee in a baggy shirt and red plaid pajama pants. I smiled at her and she grinned back.

"Hey, didn't know if you two were sleeping in or not. There's fresh coffee made if you want any." She said, Madara entering from the back door with Seth running after him with his tail wagging, shaking the snow off of his thick fur.

"Good morning." He greeted me, seeming to ignore Tobirama as he walked over to Alex, putting an arm around her waist and grinning. "Hello beautiful." He said, her face turning pink as she looked up at him, pulling his face down to kiss him as she set her coffee down. Tobirama scoffed softly and looked away, crossing his arms making me sigh, putting my arms around him.

"Sorry, are you jealous? If you wanted a kiss, you have a girlfriend right here." I chuckled, he looked at me and slowly put his arms around me as I grinned up at him. He looked at me for a moment, glancing at Madara and Alex making Madara scoff.

"If you think I'd attack you, you're wrong. I've got someone more important to worry about then you." He said, looking down at Alex who smiled. I chuckled and turned Tobi's face to mine, a hand on his cheek lightly.

"What did we talk about yesterday?" I asked him softly, trying to remind him of what he said less then 24 hours ago. He gave a silent sigh, his eyes softening slightly before he closed his eyes.

"Yes, I remember." He muttered and I looked at him expectantly.

"Say it." I told him, he sighed and averted his eyes for a moment.

"I said, I'd try to not be so guarded if we are only here a limited time." He said and I smile, my hands on the sides of his face.

"And I am very happy that you are willing to try, but keep in mind that my reminders about this, are meant to help." I told him, his eyes looking at me and I could tell he wanted to glance at Madara who gave a silent snicker before Alex lead him into the living room, the both of them taking their respective spot on the couch. "Now, do you want breakfast?"

--------------------------

The morning was nice, curling up with Tobi in our room after eating, showing him photo's of my grandparents house as I waited for my grandpa to call me back. It was a simple yet big house, given how we have a history of big families, with 5 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms and a guest house out back with 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom. It also used to hold a small quail and horse farm, the small stable having seen better days as of recent, I'm sure, but the riding paths it has are just breathtaking in the warm months. It felt so cozy for such a big place, I always wanted to have that house as a kid.

"This house does look quite nice. Big enough for a family, for sure." He mused, looking at the photo's closely on my laptop as he laid on the bed; Tobi had head resting on the headrest, his ankles crossed as pillows supported his back and shoulder, I was on my stomach with my tablet, facing him as I was reading a dark romance on the side. I felt myself blush at that comment. Did that mean he was possibly thinking of the future of us?

"Well, my family has a long history of big families. My grandmother would tell me all about my family history as a kid, she said she needed someone to pass these stories and learnings to or something." I said, he furrowed his brows at that, his lips pressed in a thin line.

"I don't actually know much about your family." He said and I sighed, putting my tablet to the side with the laptop, sitting on his lap as my hands rested on his abdomen.

"What do you want to know?" I asked him, I could see the hesitance in his eyes making me sigh again. "It's about my parents, isn't it?" I asked him, to which he gave a slow nod.

"Ask." I simply said, laying my head on his chest, my ear over his heart as I waited for him to speak.

"What happened.. Who were your parents?" He asked me quietly, a hand wrapped around my waist as another rested around my shoulders.

"Well, My mother's name was Julia, part of the triplets with Alex's mom, Louise and our aunt Haven. She was a great person from what everyone said, before she met my father.." I said, feeling him start to softly run his fingers through my hair, kissing my head softly. "My father was an alcoholic and drug addict, but he hid it well at first. She found out quickly after he convinced her to leave her family for good for him and marry him after only dating for 4 months." I said, feeling myself dissociating hard as the few memories of my mother and father faded through my mind.

"My mother left a letter for me after she died, told me how he'd done it." I said, feeling tears gather in my eyes for the selfish woman who'd put my through a hell she'd been idiotic enough to walk into. The life of an addict or addict's child is never easy. Having the addiction gene, is never easy. Not when you're me. "He was dosing her with drugs whenever they were together to make her feel addicted to him, then he threatened to leave if she didn't marry him and move away. She called his bluff, he left for a few days, she went through hell with withdrawals and begged for him back. She wrote how she told him she'd do anything for him back.. So she married him and left." I said, Tobi's lips stayed on my head, leaving my gentle kissed as he pulled me tighter, my throat getting tight.

"He'd give her more drugs as the years passed, eventually he made her have me. She told me how she hated being pregnant, taking care of a child, much less two when she had my brother. She was so high off drugs even my brother and I were going through withdrawals after birth." I said, taking a deep breath to not cry as I spoke. "Eventually, my father died of liver failure, the alcohol and drugs finally getting him just before I turned 8. Then a month after my birthday, she gave my brother and I to my grandmother, after realizing she could leave us forever and never take care of a child again." I finished, looking straight ahead, scared to look at him and see his expression as we laid there with a silence settling over us. I gripped his hand tight as he thought over his next words, though it wasn't words he spoke that reassured me, but the gentle kiss he laid on my head, holding me slightly tighter then before as he let out a deep breath.

"Thank you.. for telling me." He finally said after a few quiet moments. I huffed slightly and buried my face in his neck, kissing his skin softly.

"Any other questions?" I asked softly, he was quiet for a moment, just laying there with me as he rubbed my back.

"Did he, ever hurt you? Physically.. I mean.." He asked, laying more kisses on my head slowly making me relax more.

"He'd hit me. A lot. So would my mother." I muttered, feeling myself wanting to just fall asleep to avoid speaking of this, but I knew it was better to tell him. "Sometimes it was just a slap, other times he'd throw a glass bottle at my head or throw me down the stairs. I was always getting between him when he'd go after my brother, so I got hurt a lot. I didn't really mind as long as he was okay." I said, I could feel him tense slightly, pausing in his hold to pull me closer.

"Did he ever.. do more then just hit?" He asked, a subtle anger rising in his voice. I paused at that, hesitant on if I should be fully honest with him. My father was one of the many reasons I have such poor taste in men, because at least that type of man, I'm familiar with; but Tobi.. With him I feel like I'm safe, like I'm okay and he'll protect me when it gets bad. I wasn't sure if I wanted him to know how ruined I really was..

"Yes.." I mumbled. His jaw clenched as I laid a soft kiss on his neck, though if I was trying to soothe him or me, I wasn't sure.

"What.." He swallowed a forming lump in his throat. "What else.. did he do?" He asked, I closed my eyes, taking a deep breath of his scent to try and calm myself down.

"Rio wasn't the first person to rape me." I said quietly, my hands gripping his shirt tight. It was silent for a moment before Tobi took a deep breath, closing his eyes as he laid his head back against the pillows.

"How old were you?" He asked, voice barely a whisper and I felt my throat tighten, my lip twitching.

"Five." I spoke, my voice almost cracking as I tried to keep myself composed, but it was hard as Tobi took a deep breath in through his nose. I could feel his anger boiling beneath the surface, his nose in my hair and kissing me softly as I took deep breaths, trying to make sure I didn't go into a panic attack as we laid there; I never talked about that with anyone, not even my family. Alex knew about the abuse, but not.. the sexual abuse. Only B knew that. I could feel myself start to slightly shake as I nuzzled my face more into him, feeling tears gathering in my eyes. I didn't want to cry. I didn't want to be such a mess in front of him right now.

"You're okay. I'm here, Max." He muttered, rubbing my back gently making me sigh, slowly relaxing in his grip as he whispered small sweet words in my ear, eventually going silent for a moment, as if contemplating before he started to softly hum. The deep rumble of his chest, feeling the vibrations against my chest lulling me into a calm state, feeling myself melting back into his grip like putty in his hands at the mesmerizing deep hum.

It wasn't long before he stopped humming and we both just laid there in silence, his hand still caressing my back, my hand on his chest over his heart as I felt the thump beneath my fingers softly. How was he so good at this? Calming me down, making me feel safe and secure, like he would protect me from the world. What was it about him? I didn't know a single reason why i truly trusted Tobirama with my life. The events that made me believe in him so much; the fact he gave me a choice to choose was the only reason I could really think of, but its been everything. The small things, the big things, the good, the bad, the sweet, the scary.

"Why do I have to love you so easily?" I muttered, his hand on my back paused at that, that one word made him freeze. His hand suddenly felt hot against me as I didn't know if I had just made a mistake or not, his silence making me nervous.

"I'm starting to ask myself that same question."

"I'm going to fuck you until you've learnt your lesson, even if it means we'll be up all night." He said, grabbing my thighs and pressing me into a mating press, his tip just barely pressing into me as I gasped.

"And I don't want you waking up Alex and Madara obviously, so if you get too loud, I may not be so kind in this punishment. Understood?" He asked and I nodded slowly, biting my lip as he took in a sharp breath, sinking his cock into me slowly. "Oh, fuck.." Tobi moaned, closing his eyes before starting a steady pace, giving me little time to adjust as he held my thighs and hips down, pinning me to the floor as I whimpered and whined. I was trying hard not to moan at the feeling of him inside me, his hips rolling into mine as I squirmed under him, only resulting in his hands pinning me more forcefully, pressing me in half as he hit deeper.

"Be a good girl and stay still. You're already in trouble, Don't make this punishment longer then it already will be." He growled in my ear as a whimper escaped me, leaning up to try and kiss him only to have him pull his face just out of my reach, chuckling as I gave a small dissatisfied whine. "So whiney tonight." He teased as I tried pulling at the leather binding my hands, only succeeding in digging the material into my skin.

"Tell me what you want, and I might give it to you." He said and I couldn't help the blush that spread across my face. He wanted me to beg, I knew it, but my pride was still to high to let that happen. I wouldn't break that easily for him, even if I was slowly giving into the lust, for now, I wouldn't.

"I'm not drunk this time. I won't beg that easily." I said, his eyes narrowing before he let one of my thighs go, his hand slowly wrapping around my throat as my breath hitched, my walls clenching as his fingers gave a light, teasing squeeze.

"You were begging of your own desperation last time. I believe I can make that happen again." He said, smirking deviously at me. Gods, he looked almost devilish right now with how he stared at me. I gasped as he thrusted into me faster, choking down a moan when he tilted my head to the side, his fingers on my jaw as he laid kisses all down my neck, leaving lovebites all over my collar and chest. I couldn't hold back my whines and whimpers, biting my lip to contain my moans as he grunted quietly in my ear.

"Tobi~.." I moaned quietly, feeling him kiss back up my neck, kissing my cheek before pulling back to look at me. "More." I said, he chuckled lightly above me, his hand resting on my neck again, his fingers flexing slightly as he stared at me.

"So impolite. I think you need to work on your manners, darling." He teased, slowing his pace again as I gave a loud whine, his other hand moving to cover my mouth as he 'tsked' as me. "What did I say, Maxine? Do you not know how to listen, brat?" He mused, another whine sounding from my throat as I felt lust taking over my mind. He was going so unbearably slow, just enough to keep my mind on the way he filled me, letting me crave more as he only gave a small taste of what I knew he could do to me. I looked up at him with pleading eyes, my hands pulling harder as I tried to buck up into him.

"Oh? Do you want to say something?" He taunted, smirking as I nodded quickly, whining when he took his hand off my mouth, staring up at him innocently.

"Please.." I said softly, seeing his eyes darken at me, leaning down closer.

"Tell me what you want, darling." He muttered, his hands moving to hold my thighs again as he thrusted harsher suddenly before slowing down again, I gasped and let out a choked moan at the unexpected movement. "Tell me, and you'll get it." He groaned, closing his eyes for a moment.

"Please, Tobi-sama.. I wanna be yours." I moaned, watching through lidded eyes how his pupils dilated, a hand untying my hands finally which I used to immediately pull him down to me for a kiss, ignoring the slight sting the cool air gave my red wrists.

"You are mine." He growled between kisses, using all his weight to thrust down into me, my nails clawing down his back as I moaned. Gods, he felt amazing; I could feel the coil in my stomach already tightening, our lips clashing heavily as our touches became feverish. One of his hands slid down my thigh, rubbing my clit in harsh tight circles as I cried out into the kiss, holding him tighter as I clenched down on him, my leg twitching slightly as I quickly approached my high. "Cum for me." He muttered, putting one of my legs over his shoulder, the new angle hitting a spot just right that had me throwing my head back, gasping before Tobi captured my lips again just as I let out a loud moan, clinging to him as he pushed me into my first orgasm of the night.

"Good girl." He growled lowly, not slowing his pace as he fucked me through my climax. I could feel tears in my eyes, a hand tangling in his hair as he put a hand on the floor beside my head to stabilize himself, his thrusts turning harsher. I cried out under him as he abused my soaked cunt, his pounding rhythm made my head dizzy combined with the constant kisses to keep me quiet. "Damnit, fuck.. You're beautiful." He groaned, burying his face in my neck, my lips attaching to his skin as I littered hickey's all over his neck and shoulder, my nails clawing at his skin as I gasped and moaned for him, squeezing my eyes shut as I threw my head back.

"Tobi-sama.. 'so big, gods." I moaned, his lips finding mine again as he groaned and grunted quietly, his face looking more strained as he approached his high, the grip on my thighs tightening. Our kisses were rushed and bold, passion flowing through us as my hands held him tight, a hand threading into his hair as the other held his shoulder. We both had a thin layer of sweat on our skin, heavy breathing and lust intoxicated touches make me feel like I was on cloud nine. "'m gonna cum." I whined, Tobi squeezed his eyes shut as he groaned above me, his hips pounding into me as I felt the tightening of my stomach at my approaching climax.

"Max, I'm about to- Fuck!" He groaned, kissing me harshly to muffle our noises, both of us tipping over the edge as I clung to him desperately. He thrusted deep as he came, his strained face relaxing slightly after a moment at the feeling of bliss from my cunt getting stuffed full of just him, my walls pulsing around him from our aftershocks. We slowly came down from our highs, our harsh kisses turning into soft pecks, he let my thighs down while our breathing evened out, pulling back to look at me as we both panted lightly. He stared at me with tired eyes, my own dazed gaze looking up at him, like he was the best thing I've ever seen; my hand raised up to cup his cheek before leaning up to lay a soft kiss on his lips.

"I hope they didn't hear that." Tobirama grumbled as he blushed, realizing how wild he was just being moment ago. I giggled slightly and he looked at me before cracking a small smile. "Are you alright?" He asked and I smiled, nodding before leaning up again to kiss him.

"I'm way more then alright right now." I said, my hands gently caressing his neck and shoulders as he sighed and closed his eyes. He leaned down to kiss me softly, his touch gentle as he slowly pulled out, a soft whine escaping me as I felt empty, even with his cum dripping out of me. He chuckled and sat up to look at me, snickering as he looked down at the mess between us.

"Such a mess." He muttered and I grinned, sitting up and pushing him back despite his protests, though as I lowered my head his words seemed to die on his tongue. I lightly licked his base, both of our cum mixed together on him was addicting. He tensed and gasped at my action, feeling himself hardening again as I continued to clean his cock with my tongue, eventually wrapping my lips around his tip as he groaned, a hand jumping to my hair to give a half assed attempt at pulling me off. "M-Max.. Shit, I'm- I'm sensitive, fuck.." he groaned, before a whine left his lips that was like heaven to my ears, urging me to take more of him into my mouth, quickly starting to deepthroat him as his hand tugged at my hair. His gasps and whimpers were tantalizing, one of his hands covering his mouth to muffle the noises. His face burned red, eyes practically rolled back as he struggled to stay composed, only to let out a sharp gasp when one of my hands started to fondle his balls, massaging them as he bit his lip.

"M-Max, oh fuck.. don't stop, dammit.." he moaned, closing his eyes before I gave a low hum and they snapped back to me, rolling back as he caught my gaze. "Kami.. I'm gonna cum. Fuck, Max." He groaned, panting as he suddenly tensed, his balls tightening as he tugged my head down as close as he could. I moaned as ropes of his seed filled my throat, the vibrations making him throw his head back with a groan, letting me milk him like this for a few moments before his breathing turned heavy from overstimulation.

"C-cant.. Max.." he whimpered softly, I let him go as he started to go soft, a small 'pop' sounding as his breath hitched. I crawled up to straddle him, hovering above as his hands immediately went to my hips, looking at me nervously. "W-wait, what are you-" I cut him off with a kiss, pulling back with a giggle before wrapping my arms around his neck, my front pressed against his chest.

"I didn't realize how sexy it'd be to hear you whine like that." I said, his face going red as he stuttered.

"I-I did not- You were- Damnit." He grumbled, turning his chin away as I chuckled softly, using this chance to pepper kissed up and down his neck. He calmed down, closing his eyes and sighing.

"Whatever you were doing, it was very arousing." I said, his face stayed red as he seemed to huff. I chuckled and got up on shaky legs, holding a hand out for him which he reluctantly took, Tobi went to put on clothes when I stopped him, biting my lip as he raised an eyebrow at me.

"Why can I not put on my clothes?" He asked and I smirked, leading him to lay down with me before settling into bed. I usually laid on his chest and tonight was no different as I moved to straddle him, grabbing him softly as he gasped, whimpering when I slipped his semi hard cock back in my tight cunt. "F-fuck, Max.." he trailed off, squeezing his eyes closed as his hands held my hips in place. I grinned, moving to lay down, getting comfortable in my spot as his eyes snapped open once he realized what I was doing.

"You want to sleep like this?" He asked incredulously staring at me in shock as I nodded.

"I like how it feels when you're inside me. Is that a problem?" I asked him, trying to sound innocent as I tilted my head, hearing him suck in a breath as I looked up at him from my spot on his chest.

"I-.. I guess not." He said, blushing as he averted his eyes from me.

"Good, because I like feeling you this close to me. Its very relaxing." I said, getting a small huff from him, I giggled and leaned up to kiss his jaw getting him to look down at me. "Come on, say something." I whined, he stared at me for a moment then laid a soft kiss on my lips.

"You are beautiful." He whispered making me smile, pecking his lips before giving a teasing roll of my hips. He gasped and pressed me down onto him, his cock was pressing harshly against my cervix and the harder he pressed, the more I shook as I felt my breath stop. "Fuck- especially when you're like this. You're like a fiend wanting me so bad, pretty girl." He grunted, both of us letting out small moans as my walls twitched and spasmed around him, my toes curling at the sensation of him hitting so deep.

"Tobi~." I whined, gasping as I tried pressing harder on him, one of his hands went to trail down my stomach, going down until it brushed my clit as I jolted forward from the feeling. I all but squealed as he started fast circles on my clit, pulling me down to capture my lips; his kiss was soft and sweet, but his touch was rough and fast. I cried into the kiss, his own small whines mixing with mine from my cunt squeezing him, my nails digging into his skin leaving bright red marks trailing down.

"Doing so good, pretty girl.. ugh, making me lose it for you.." He breathed heavily, kissing me once more. The few times we'd part for air was filled with hot pants and sloppy kisses all over each others face, hearing his sweet moans and whines made me so hot, so needy to hear more, I was stunned when I suddenly heard a small sob come from him. I looked at him and was astonished to find tears brimming his eyes, his head thrown back as he grit his teeth. "Max, Fuck!.. You're my pretty girl. Gonna look so beautiful stuffed full of me." He groaned, his lips finding my neck and latching on, covering whatever he could in sloppy lovebites as I tried to muffle my sounds in his shoulder.

"Please, Tobi-sama.. Want you, want your cum, please Tobi-sama." I said, my mind so foggy I could hardly think straight as I neared my high, his fingers picking up pace as I tensed, feeling his dick jump at the sudden tightness. "Gonna cum.. Fuck, please want your cum so bad." I babbled, he stared up at me before kissing me, giving a few sharp thrusts up into me as I cried out, the sudden added pleasure tipping me over the edge as I came, crying out while hugging him tight. He groaned as my walls clamped down on him, pushing through to give some last sloppy thrusts before stilling as he emptied whatever he had left to give inside of me, a choked sob leaving his lips as he kissed me again feverishly. Our lips parted, and Tobi laid my head in the crook of his neck, deciding to leave me here as he was too tired and sensitive to try or want to move me. I let out a happy sigh as I drifted off to sleep, kissing his neck gently.

"Goodnight Tobi-sama.." I muttered before falling asleep.

"Goodnight, Max."

The first day was good, after eating and showing Tobirama the whole house, I was sitting on the balcony at night, a blanket around my shoulders  in my pajama's as the grin wouldn't leave my face at being here. It really felt like I was home, like all the Rio shit was really over. I knew it probably wasn't, but for now at least. It was over.

I wasn't sure how long I'd been outside for. Long enough that Tobi came out looking for me, finding me on the brushed off big sunchair, staring up at the clear night sky, not a single cloud in the sky with a bright and full moon. This was where I felt most at home here. Or in our old treehouse a few dozen meters into the forest. Anywhere I could see the night sky clearly and hear the quiet sounds of nature.

"I was wondering where you were." He muttered, coming out to where I sat, dressed in his own pajama's and a sweater, looking up at the sky as he sighed. "Even the stars are different here." He said after a moment, I looked at him softly, slipping my hand in his as his gaze turned to me.

"You okay?" I asked him, his look softening slightly as he brushed off the chair across from me and sat down, holding my hand in his.

"Are you?" He asked back making me smirk.

"I believe I asked first." I said making him sigh again, this time I furrowed my brows, turning to face him as I took both his hands in mine. "Seriously, are you okay Tobi?" He asked, he was quiet for a moment before he spoke.

"I still.. I don't know how to feel about this world yet. I just know I don't want to leave you." He said and I sighed, standing up and sitting beside him, putting my head on his shoulder as I put his arm around me.

"Well, how about, we keep looking for a way back? If push comes to shove.. after talking to my family, the possibility of me going back with you is always an option." I said, knowing although I'd be leaving my family, I'd permanently get away from Rio. I'd really be free of him. Besides, aside from being a ninja, wasn't life pretty good in Konoha? I mean, it'd at least be less draining then living here. Tobi looked surprised at me, looking down as I closed my eyes, leaning into him with a small content sigh.

"Are you sure? You wouldn't have all this technology. You may not even have marijuana." He pointed out making me chuckle and shrug.

"I do know how to grow it, and I've got lots of seeds if I really wanted it that badly. Technology is great and all, but all I'd really need is my phone for music and I'd be good. Besides, solar powered phone chargers are a thing, and if we find a way back to your world, who says we couldn't come back to see the people here later?" I asked, he stared at me for a moment, as if trying to decide if I was serious making me sigh. "Look, we don't need to decide anything for now, but we can keep it open as an option, okay? We'll see how you like this world after we have our own place, then decide." I said, getting a slow nod from him making me grin, leaning up and kissing his cheek lightly, his face flushing pink.

"I suppose.. keeping our options open is a good idea." He grumbled quietly, looking away from me as I chuckled.

"You're very cute when you blush." I said, his face turning a bit redder as he sputtered out something to try and defend himself when I let out a laugh. "Its supposed to be a compliment, not an insult." I said, he shut his mouth at that, realizing 'defending' himself would be futile as I was right. I called him cute, that's not an insult.

"I am not cute." He muttered making me grin wider, moving to straddle him as I held his surprised face in my hands, his hands going around my waist gently.

"Fine, not cute, you're handsome. Better?" I asked seeing him look at me before sighing and nodding.

"It is acceptable." He said, looking at me hesitantly, but at seeing my loving gaze he stopped short.

"You're very handsome." I said, my hands sliding down to rest on his neck as he shuddered, momentarily closing his eyes.

"We should go to sleep soon. Its getting quite late and I'd like to wake up early tomorrow." He said, trying to end this moment and run back inside but I knew he's was just trying to push me away because he's embarrassed.

"Come on, 5 more minutes? Please?" I asked, he looked at me for a moment, unsure of what to do but I could see apprehension in his features. "I want to spend some more time with you." I told him quietly, he stared at me a moment longer before he hesitantly wrapped an arm around me, pulling me closer as he let out a deep breath.

"I guess 5 minutes couldn't hurt." He said, a smile blooming on my face as I leaned forward to lay a kiss on his lips, his lips twitching in a smile as he slowly kissed me back. I moved to pull away, only to have Tobi leading me right back to him as our lips clashed again, still soft but he had a little more feeling in it, a hand trailing up my side to rest on the back of my neck. I whimpered softly, practically melting as I pressed closer to him, he groaned and tilted my head back, deepening the kiss while my fingers tangled in his soft hair.

"God, it is so hard to just not stop kissing you." I said as we finally parted, both of us blushing at how quickly we got out of hand. It was hard to not constantly touch him, kiss him; I felt like a lovesick school girl around him. He stared at me with lidded eyes.

"Who said you had to stop?" He asked, my eyes widening in slight surprise before a smug look crossed my face.

"When did you become so horny?" I asked, his face turning bright red as he turned his head to the side, going to speak before his eyes landed on the window inside and he froze. I raised an eyebrow and looked inside to see Madara looking through the window with a smug face, flipping Tobi off before walking into his and Alex's room.

"And you're telling me to not pick a fight." He grumbled as I chuckled.

"Because at least one of you needs to keep a level head, and if Madara wont do that then I need you to. I bet Alex is giving him plenty of reminders to not pick fights as well." I said, turning his face back to me gently, pecking his lips as I leaned my forehead against his. "We can go to bed now if you want." I muttered, fixing his hair slightly after I messed it up. Its getting longer, might need to cut it soon if he wants to keep it short. He leaned into my touch and nodded.

"Okay." He said, putting his head on my shoulder before his hands went under my thighs, a squeal escaping me as he lifted me when he stood. "And I'm not the one whos so obviously horny. Don't forget who started this." He said lowly, walking inside with me still in his arms and into our room.

"Oh I started this? I just wanted to kiss you, you are the one who pulled me back in." I teased, grinning smugly as he blushed before gently tossing me on the bed after he kicked the door closed.

"How thick are these walls?" He suddenly asked, my thighs clenching as is bit my lip.

"They're solid wood, so pretty thick." I said, seeing him look to one of the walls before turning back to me with a rare mischievous look in his eyes.

"I think we should see how quiet you can be. Ill show you I wont tolerate you being a brat any longer." He muttered, my eyes widening as I feel heat pooling in my core, rubbing my thighs together slightly. He slowly took his sweater off, kneeling on the edge of the bed as I stared at him, squealing and giggling as he pulled me closer to him. "If they come knocking, I'm not stopping." He said, eyes glazed with lust and a dominating look as I started to squirm under him, reaching up to pull him down with a whine when he caught my wrists.

"I didn't get to play with you as much as I wanted at the start of the week. I'm making sure I show you just how bad my bite is this time." He said quietly, pinning my wrists to the bed as I bit my lip. He leaned down and planted a kiss on my lips, it was slow and sensual, full of want and passion as his hands made quick work of my sweater and shirt, only breaking the kiss as long as necessary before diving right back in. He let go of my wrists, his forearms on the bed as he leaned over me, my hands tangling in his hair as I moaned softly, our hips pressed together rocking lightly in a slow steady rhythm. Fuck, I was sober today and god did this feel good after being so anxious. Him close to me, his skin touching mine, his smell, his taste, his feel; he soothed me on another level with more then just sex and I was beginning to slowly see that. I hooked my leg around his hips like last time, going to flip us over when he caught my leg. "I suppose I could take my time with you some other time though, if you're really this eager to be shown who's in control here." He growled softly, I bit my lip, wrapping both legs around his hips as he smirked, picking me up, placing a pillow on the ground before laying me down with him still on top of me. He leaned down to place a small kiss on my lips, his hands moving to take my pants off before pulling back and taking his own off too, his hands crawling up my legs as I laid there in nothing but my panties with him towering over me.

"You are so beautiful." He said softly as he leaned down to kiss my neck and down my chest, flicking my nipples with his tongue and fingers as I moaned, feeling him continue to roll his hips into mine. It all made my mind so fuzzy as I moaned beneath him, my hands moving to tangle in his hair when he caught them again, grabbing his belt and using it to restrain my hands. "No touching me tonight. That's part of your punishment, brat." He growled, moving to slip my panties off, eyes trained on how the wet fabric stick slightly to my folds. I eyed the bulge in his boxers, instinctively clenching as I thought of last time, how big he felt, how much I loved running my nails over his skin and just feeling him on me. He was withholding that from me, knowing how badly I wanna touch him in a moment like this. I could feel the attitude coming back up, itching to say something and he seemed to notice, looking at me in amusement.

"Say it." He demanded, daring me to say what was crossing my mind. I stared at him, his fingers inching closer to my heat as I bit my lip.

"Fuck you." I said, a smirk pulling at his lips as he gave a small darker chuckle, leaning down so he was inches close to me.

"I intend to do just that." He said, sliding a finger into my folds, slowly thrusting in and out as he snickered. "So wet and we've barely started. You're not supposed to be excited for your punishment." He snickered, my face flushing red at that as I looked away, only for him to grab my chin and turn me back to him.

"Look at me when I speak to you." He barked, my lustful but defiant eyes staring up at him.

"I'm not afraid of your punishments." I whispered, smirking slightly before he chuckle.

"Oh, I'm not trying to make you afraid." He taunted, narrowing his eyes as he pulled completely away from me, taking his boxers off slowly, my eyes drawing to his length, already leaking precum making my muscles clench. "I'm going to fuck you until you've learnt your lesson, even if it means we'll be up all night."

"You, Seth, are about to be my new best friend." I said, Tobirama smiling at me slightly as Madara chuckled before Alex walked out of the dining room door, looking slightly off but I chose to ignore it for now. "Alex! You never told me Seth was basically a mini bear." I said, causing her to smile before the dog turned his attention to Tobi for the first time, seeming to just now notice him, trying to jump up on him.

"Seth, down!" She called, chuckling lightly as she called Seth off, Tobirama staring at the dog wearily now, though it was plainly obvious he trusted the dog more then Madara if his posture and attitude was anything to go by. "It's great to see you again." She said as she hugged me, giving her a light squeeze back before turning to Tobi who was looking quite uncomfortable. I felt slightly bad as I might have been ignoring him a little accidentally there.

"Tobirama, this is Alex, my favourite cousin. We practically grew up like sisters." I said, Tobi put a hand out to her which she took, a slightly nervous smile on her face.

"It's nice to finally meet you. I look forward to eventually meeting Hashirama too." She said politely, I could see the slight surprise in his posture at her kind tone, clearly expecting a bit more of a reaction then what he got from her. Yea, I was the insane one, I'll make that clear.

"I'm glad the rest of Max's family doesn't seem to be as crazy as her." He said making her sweatdrop as I laughed.

"Don't use me as an example for everyone. I'm sure her and I are both dreading ever introducing you to our mothers side of the family." She told him, dropping his arm as he glanced back at me with a sigh. Madara moved to stand by Alex, putting an arm around her shoulders as he stared down at the Senju. My gods, was that a comical height difference.

"Try not to make a fool out of yourself while you're here. Alex's parents will be here in a few days and I don't need you tarnishing my first impression with them." He said making the Senju roll his eyes, scoffing slightly at the raven haired man. I shared a look with Alex and rolled my eyes; time for a 'who's dick is bigger' contest.

"I highly doubt I'd need to do anything to do that, given who you are." Tobi said arrogantly as I facepalmed, Alex sighed and pinched the bridge of her nose.

"Tobirama, this is my house and I will not tolerate disrespect from you to me or Madara. You may not have chosen to come to this world, but you have chosen to stay here, so you should be grateful you actually have people willing to help." Alex said, he looked at her in slight surprise, Madara looking both surprised and slightly smug to see Alex coming to his defense; guess not many people would've done that where he was from. "I understand if you two do not get along, I don't expect you to, however if you're staying here I don't want any fighting. Do you understand?" She asked, Madara giving a slight snicker as she rolled her eyes.

"I'm talking to you too, Mada." She said, his amused expression turning to one of reluctance but he nodded anyways, turning to Alex as I chuckled.

"Alright, I got it. No fighting." He said, his hands resting on her arms as he smiled at her. They looked so sweet together it was almost nauseating.

"I wasn't the one that started it." Tobi grumbled quietly making me roll my eyes, smacking him upside the head making him glare at me, rubbing the spot I had hit when I gestured to Alex.

"Apologize." I muttered to him as Alex looked over at us.

"I did not come here to cause issues for you, I apologize for my behavior." Tobirama said as Alex smiled kindly.

"It's alright, I kind of expected some kind of minor conflict with you two seeing each other again. I'm just hoping it isn't a constant issue." She said as I smiled and chuckle slightly.

"I'm pretty sure as soon as your dad gets here, he'll be the one dealing with them if they get into arguments." I said as she have a nervous smile, scratching the side of her face sheepishly.

"Yea, that's kinda what I'm worried about." She laughed nervously as Tobirama furrowed his brows.

"Her dad is from the military, one of this worlds types of shinobi." Madara told him as he saw the confusion on his features, putting an arm around Alex's shoulders before he looked down at her. "Navy, right? You said they had the hardest training out of the different types." He asked and she chuckled, nodding.

"Yea, from what my dad and brothers have told me, the Navy tend to have rougher training, though that's partially because they get deployed faster and more frequently then most branches of the military, as well as the fact of having to make sure you don't get seasick if you're on the water." She said, shrugging a little. I was kind of glad I didn't have a military family like Alex, it was a hard life worrying about the safety of your loved ones all the time like that.

"I see.." Tobirama said, an awkward pause coming across the room but Alex and I chose to ignore it.

"So, Max, I believe you remember where Porter and Eric's old room is." She said as I nodded. "We've cleaned it for you guys of course, but feel free to settle in and look around. Just a small warning, there are currently a few wolves in the area roaming around. Madara's spotted them a few times, so I'd suggest keeping an eye out if you go outside." She said making me smile and nod, taking Tobi's hand and leading him upstairs.

"Who's Porter and Eric?" Tobi asked as we walked up the winding steps. I sighed and looked at him.

"Alex's brothers." I said, seeing the confusion on his face. "They uh.. went into the military too." I said, seeing him give a small nod.

"Where are they now?" He asked and I paused when we got to the top, looking over to the balcony as I set my suitcase down. I moved to the window and pointed to a small path to the right of the treeline going into the forest.

"About a 20 minute walk from that path." I said quietly, understanding crossing his face as he stared out the window somberly.

"I see.." He said, I nodded slightly, looking for a moment longer before turning around.

"The room is over here." I said, picking up my bag as I opened the door and walked inside. There were two queen beds in opposite corners with two desks and two dressers, sunlight shining brightly through the windows as the plain greyish blue walls seemed brighter then I remembered.

"Two beds?" He asked making me look at him and chuckle.

"I have a feeling once Hashirama gets here, they will move that bed into the office and turn that into a room for Hashirama and Liz." I said as he set his bag down in front of one of the dressers. "You alright sharing a bed?" I asked him, he walked over and wrapped his arms around my waist, nodding as he smiled, leaning down to kiss me.

"Of course. Why wouldn't I?" He asked and I chuckled.

"Just making sure." I said, kissing him as he smiled before I suddenly let myself fall back onto the bed, pulling Tobirama with me as he let out a small yelp. I latched onto him as he sighed, putting his arms around there as he let his head drop onto the bed, shifting a bit to get comfortable.

"These beds are a lot softer then the ones from your apartment." He said making me chuckle.

"Is that a good thing or a bad thing?" I asked him, looking up as he seemed to think for a moment before smiling.

"Good." He said, pulling me down for a kiss as I grinned.

----------------------

So, after a bit, Tobi and I had put our clothes away and we decided to go downstairs for some food. Tobirama was a bit hesitant to just get food considering he was technically in the mindset of him being a guest right now, but I just waved him off, reminding him this was basically my second home growing up. I lead him into the kitchen, glancing into the living room to see Alex and Madara curled up on the could, the voices of Jeremy Sisto and Anthony Anderson playing from the TV making me chuckle.

"Guess some things never change." I quietly chuckled, going to the cupboard to get some glasses of water, figuring it'd be good to at least show him where stuff was in here. Tobi leaned against the counter as I looked to see what Alex had. She must have just gone shopping or had it delivered recently cause her cupboards and fridge were filled with new and fresh foods, means we'll have some good meals at least. "What do you feel like eating?" I asked Tobi, noticing him glancing at Madara who was currently talking to Alex quietly, a cheeky smile was on her face so I could only imagine what she was telling him. I patted Tobi's arm and he turned to me, the hard look he had on a moment ago gone when his eyes landed on me.

"It's not nice to stare." I told him, his cheeks dusting with pink.

"Forgive me for being weary of the man who was trying to kill me last time I saw him." He said making me roll my eyes.

"And what were you trying to do? Become his best friend?" I asked, raising an eyebrow as he opened his mouth.

"That was different, I was-"

"You were trying to stop him from giving the whole world a forever illusion. I get it, but that doesn't make staring any less impolite." I stated as he huffed. "I also think you are forgetting who actually lives here out of the two of you." I said, turning around as he furrowed his brows at me.

"I thought we now lived here too?" He asked and I chuckled.

"You didn't think we'd be staying here forever, did you?" I asked, seeing his face flush pink as he looked down.

"Well, I didn't realize we'd have another option." He said as I smiled, putting my arms around his waist as I rested my head on his chest.

"Plenty of my family owns lodges around here. My grandparents have one just a few miles into the forest from here, the road is about a a 20 minute drive from here since its so far back." I said as he looked at me with a thoughtful face.

"So, we could have our own home here?" He asked and I smiled and nodded.

"Eventually, yes." I told him, he took a moment to think before sighing.

"I suppose.. knowing we'll only be here a limited time.. I can, try, to not be so guarded being here." He said, his eyes watching as I grinned up at him.

"Thank you." I said, a hand coming up to rest oh his cheek. "I don't like seeing you so stressed." I told him, getting a small sigh as the corners of his lips twitched up with a smile.

"I didn't realize you cared so much." He muttered but I just giggled and placed a kiss on his lips.

"Of course I care. You are someone important to me, I will always care." I told him, he pulled me closer, kissing my forehead before resting his chin on my head.

"You are someone important to me too." He said, hugging me tight. I grinned and placed a chaste kiss on his neck, feeling him smile before pulling back to look at me. "Now, I believe you were trying to decide what to eat?" He asked and I chuckled nodding as he looked at me for a moment.

"Could I help you?" He asked and I smiled, leaning in until his lips were mere inches from me.

"Of course you can." I said, pecking his lips as he held me close to him by my waist. "But I do think I should ask Alex and Madara what they would want. Only fair I make food for them too." I said as we parted making him sigh, letting go of me reluctantly.

"Alright." He said, clearly not happy as I took a step away from him before chuckling slightly and leaning up to kiss his cheek.

"Don't be so grumpy. I like seeing your smile." I told him, his cheeks turning pink as he let out a small 'hmpf' and crossed his arms, looking away from me as I smiled, shaking my head slightly at his childish antics before walking into the living room to see the happy couple kiss before I cleared my throat and they both turned to me.

"Sorry to interrupt, I was just wondering if you guys wanted any food as I was going to make something." I asked and Alex looked at Madara for a moment.

"Are you hungry?" She asked him and he looked at her in thought before nodding.

"We did skip lunch, so it may be a good idea for you to eat." He said making her smile, looking back up at me.

"Sounds good. Do you need any help?" She asked me but I shook my head.

"Nah, enjoy being with your little lover boy for a while." I teased, her face flushing pink as Madara raised a brow at me.

"Lover boy?" He asked but I snickered at him.

"Don't think I don't see the way you stare at her. Its why I'm trying so hard to make sure Tobi and you don't start a fight." I told him, seeing slight surprise flash across his face.

"I didn't realize Tobirama would listen to you." He said making me smirk, a hand on my hip as I looked back where Tobirama was staring wearily at us.

"Only after I told him wed find our own place around here eventually." I said, chuckling at the albino before turning back to the two, Alex looking cheeky.

"Gonna see about talking to Nana and see if you can get your inheritance a little early?" She asked and I rolled my eyes.

"Oh please, I wouldn't be asking for it early, I'd just ask if I could move into the ledge now seeing as they are out in Italy with their little spiritual retreat business for the foreseeable future. Its been vacate for at least 2 years now." I said, she chuckled and nodded.

"That is true. I'm sure Nana would love to have someone living there again." She said, Madara's brows were furrowed the whole time.

"Wait, so you may move to a different house soon?" He asked, clearly feeling like he was missing some key information.

"Yep. Just need to talk to my Nana and then we'll be out of your way." I said, grinning at him before I turned and walked back to Tobirama, leaning up to kiss his cheek as he huffed, looking away a little as his cheeks turned pink. "Oh, don't be like that. You're cute when you pout but that doesn't mean you cant be an ass. Now let me kiss you." I told him, seeing his hesitant, glancing at Madara who was looking at him with a small smirk before he sighed and turned back to me.

"Fine." He grumbled, leaning down to kiss me and I grinned, wrapping my arms around his neck as I kissed him back, his arms going around my waist lightly. We parted and his face was still pink as he grumbled lowly, but I just giggled, pecking his lips once more before pulling away to go make food for all of us, Tobi kindly helping me as well.

"So, when we get to the boarder, we need to show them these? How far away is it?" Tobirama asked as we drove. We had indeed decided to leave early, Tobirama and Hashirama sharing a long goodbye before we left, the promise for the brunette to join us soon left in their mind as we got into the car. I gave Hashirama my apartment keys as he made us promise to text or call when we got there so he could know we were safe, we had gotten them a new phone curtesy of Alex and I, both of us pitching in to get both Senju brothers a phone and phone number. Tobi wasn't too thrilled at the device, acting like my grandparents when trying to use it which always made me laugh, but he appreciated it once I explained I felt bad he and Hashirama would be separated, wanting to use this as a way they could talk to each other whenever they wanted until he managed to convince Liz to come to BC with him.

"Actually the boarder is about 20 minutes from here." I said, keeping my eyes on the road besides a glance spared his way, his hand was in mine, a book in his lap with a coffee hot in his cupholder. We had made a quick stop at a Starbucks. I figured if we were taking a bit of a road trip, the least I could do was get him a drink for the way; though the fact he chose plain black coffee was kinda bland compared to my Earl Grey vanilla sweetened latte. "All they'll really ask for is the passports, why we're going, any other documents required, which for us is none. It should be a pretty quick encounter then we'll be headed to Whistler which is the closest town to her place." I explained, getting a nod from him as he went back to his book, taking a sip of his drink as he'd occasionally glance up to observe the snowy landscapes around us. I glanced at him and smiled, he looked cute when he was focused on something, his nose slightly scrunched almost like a bunny, his crimson eyes scanning the pages delicately of the Sherlock Holms novel B had gifted him the day before. He honestly looked like a prince; regal and strong, sat as if he knew the world rested on his shoulders even if it truly didn't. I couldn't help giving his hand a small squeeze, seeing him look up from the corner of my eye before squeezing my hand back a little, a soft smile now decorating his face as he continues to read.

It wasn't long before I pulled up to the Boarder Services, getting in the line as we patiently waited, only spending a few minutes in line before it was our turn. Passports in hand as I pulled up to the small post and handing them to the person inside the window.

"From BC, eh? What were you in Washington DC for?" The woman asked, her tone polite as she did whatever it was she did with our passports.

"Oh, just college. We're going home to visit my family for the winter." I said, smiling at her as she raised a brow.

"Oh? What're you studying?" She asked, her nametag read 'Willow', her darker skin and dreads a stark contract to her bright surroundings.

"Horticulture Technician. Basically I'll be cooped up in a greenhouse all the time, though I study plant identification and herbology more." I said with a slight laugh as she sighed.

"Girl, that is exactly what I'd be doing if I wasn't here." She said with a smile, handing our passports back. "If I didn't have such a bad pollen allergy, I'd be outside at every given chance." She chuckled as I smiled.

"I mean, I don't know about you, but ragweed is my personal enemy because of just that. No other pollen seems to make me into a sneezing monster quite like that one." I said, she gave a big laugh, a smile on her face as she shook her head.

"I feel you there. Sometimes I wish it could stay winter, then I go outside and want to go right back to bed where it's warm." She said, lifting the bar in front of the car to let us through. "Hope you have a good time visiting family. Should be a harsh Christmas according to the weather, try to stay warm if you can, eh?" She advised, I thanked her before moving on, the car falling into silence as Tobirama kept reading.

"That was indeed quite quick." He commented making he give a small hum.

"Yea, usually its quick as long as there aren't any issues with documentation. Seems the passport worked fine though, which is great news for when Hashirama comes down." I said, my hand resting back on the center console again as I grabbed his, our fingers instinctively curling around each other.

"Indeed." He said simply, though with the way the silence stretched, glancing at him when I noticed he wasn't turning the page anymore in his book.

"Wanna ask something?" I asked him, his eyes turning to me then back out the windshield.

"How can you talk to people so easily?" He asked after a moment, looking at me as he finally shut his book after marking his page. I glanced at him and shrugged.

"Never really had a problem with it before. I just think, if I'm anxious to talk to people, its bound to be the same for others, so why should I be the one to wait for someone else's move? If we all stayed scared to do something as little as talk to a stranger, we wouldn't get anything done and no one would feel safe." I said, my words were more so a reflection how I felt then a proper explanation. It was how my grandparents raised me, the only actual parents I got besides Alex's. "I actually get really scared when talking to people." I admitted, he looked at me in surprise and slight disbelief.

"I highly doubt that with how easily to spoke to that woman back there." He said making me roll my eyes.

"You can still be scared of something and do it." I said, looking over at him as we drove further into the cold BC mountains to Whistler. "Weren't you ever scared when you would fight? It'd be hard not to be, especially as a kid." I said, he was quiet before he sighed.

"I suppose you are right.." He grumbled, looking out the window before he furrowed his brows. "Canada looks so vastly different from Washington." He said making me smile.

"Welcome to my home country." I laughed, seeing him turn back to me. "Home of pure Maple syrup, moose, geese that can basically smell the smallest amount of fear in you and will bite you, plus, as you can see, a lot of snow." I said, his face was turning slightly at the last part.

"Yes.. snow, the thing that makes you cold and wet and can easily make you freeze to death." He said making me raise an eyebrow at him.

"I hope you know, just for that comment I will be pushing you into the snow at some point." I said making his sweatdrop.

"Please don't." He said but I just held a grin on my face as he sighed loudly. "Okay, fine, I apologize. I won't complain about the snow as long as you don't push me into it." He said making me chuckle.

"Alright, fine." I said, hearing him give a relieved sigh as he nodded.

"Thank you."

.

"Hey, did you know in Canada, there's a whole hotel made of ice?"

"Why would anyone sleep in that?" 

"I don't know, but it looks fucking awesome."

------------------------

Pulling up the long driveway was relieving, Tobirama had gotten through his whole book and was now looking at games on my phone when we parked in front of the garage, going to the back seat and opening the door to take out our suitcases with our immediate needs in it, like clothes, hygiene stuff, etc. I walked up to the front door with Tobi, peeking into the window that overlooked the living room and seeing the lit fireplace, a figure with long black fluffy hair sat on the couch with their back to me, though I could clearly see the show Vikings playing which slightly confused me. That definitely wasn't Alex, hair wasn't straight enough to be her, so that only left one guess who it was.

"Madara likes Vikings?" I asked Tobirama, who frowned and looked in the window with me before scowling.

"He's acting like he owns this place." Tobi muttered making me pull him aside, not noticing the figure turn to the window just as I pulled Tobi out of view.

"Hey, remember what I said earlier? You don't need to get along with him like your best friends or anything, just be civil. No starting fights, okay? I'm sure Alex has made that clear to Madara as well." I asked, making sure he understood I was serious about this as he sighed and nodded.

"I promise, I will not start a fight." He said making me smile, pulling him down for a soft kiss, pulling back and wrapping my arms around him.

"Thank you." I said, his arms going around me as well before we let each other go and I knocked on the door, waiting a moment as barking sounded loudly from inside the house before surprisingly Madara was the one to answer. Seth jumped out at me and started whining for attention making me chuckle, I was half expecting Alex to just walk out from behind Madara but nope, only her shoes and coat hung up being the indication she was home.

"Tobirama." Madara said, his eyes narrowed at the albino causing me to feel slightly out of place as I crouched to pet the dog on the head.

"Madara." Tobi said, a hard look on his face making me sigh, standing up again.

"Yes, yes, we know you two don't like each other, we don't need the added angst like a teenage drama." I said, looking at them both before sticking a hand out for Madara to shake. "I'm Max, as you could have guessed. Where's Alex?" I asked, trying to look past him if I could see her.

"She's in the other room at the moment. I can say, I've heard good things about you from Alex." He said, taking my hand in a firm shake before he invited us in, still keeping a firm eye on Tobirama which didn't go unnoticed by either of us.

"Safe to say I've heard a lot about you from Alex, both before and after you came here. You will not believe how much she could talk about you, if I let her go on all day, I can guarantee she would've." I said, he chuckled and raised an eyebrow.

"Is that so?" He asked and I chuckled and nodded.

"Oh, you've probably seen her room so I doubt I need to explain how big of a deal this actually is to her." I said as he nodded, a smug smirk on his face.

"Yes, I will say, I've grown quite fond of her room." He said making me raise a brow.

"Really now? She didn't tell me you were a bit egotistical, are all those posters making you get a bit of a big head about yourself?" I asked jokingly, he seemed surprised by my words before simple shrugging.

"Not my fault she's got posters of me up in our bedroom." He said before I blinked at his words, a sly smirk on my face as I realized the specifics of his language. 

"'our bedroom', huh? Guess that means things are going well here." I said, he chuckled again and nodded a bit. Tobi just stood close to me, a sour look on his face as I conversed with the Uchiha.

"I suppose I couldn't argue with that observation." He said before Seth started whining again and I crouched down again to ruffle his super fluffy fur, hugging the dog as I sighed.

"You, Seth, are about to be my new best friend."

It was the 18th and I laid in my mostly empty room, staring up at the once colour filled ceiling to find the dull cream staring back at me. I had woken up to another nightmare after only an hour or two of sleep. My room was all packed up with just my bedding needing to be put away, having worked very hard to have everything packed after I woke up on Tobi's chest. It was clean and I was glad it was done, but it just felt wrong to be in here with the bare walls and none of my little knickknacks I had on the shelves or desk. I had my car packed and had everything else set to be shipped to Alex's house, so I really had nothing to do now; we had the passports, we were leaving tomorrow, Hashirama actually scored with Liz and while B is setting it up so some of her uni friends would be taking over the lease, he'd be staying with Liz and her kids for the time being. I laughed pretty hard at that, knowing if Augie didn't see him as a dad before, he definitely would now; Hashirama got pretty flustered at that and admitted he had offered to take care of Augie and Lorelai while she worked, or help her work if she needed it. Apparently she was already waiting with the usual server Kate covering for her as she talked with Hashirama in her office. She had figured it out after finally seeing photo's of the character's Augie was going on so much about, immediately noticing the oddly similar faces of Tobirama and Hashirama; plus Madara as I had shown her who my cousin was currently dating.

I sighed and sat up, figuring if I couldn't sleep, I could at least not be alone since it was the last day before we left. Going to Tobirama's room and knocking on the door was surprisingly nerve wracking, like I was both scared and excited to see him and I didn't know what to make of it. It was quiet in the apartment as the two brothers spent their last moments together for who knows how long, though I doubt it would really be long. Tobirama opened his door and seemed slightly surprised to see me; B was out at work after being called in so I was left alone with the boys.

"Max?" He questioned, Hashirama leaning around him to look at me in slight confusion. I blushed and looked down, suddenly feeling very shy as I realized how ridiculous it was to come over to see him.

"I.. " I tried, sighing as I kept my hands clasped in my hoodie sleeves, my face felt hot. "I didn't want to be alone tonight.. if that's okay." I said quietly, avoiding his gaze. He looked at me in surprise for a moment before his expression changed, a slightly softer look in his eyes, the tiniest smile on his face. He held out his hand for me causing my eyes to slightly widen, not expecting him to actually accept my request, but as I looked up at him through my lashes, taking his hand slowly; I found myself surprised by just what I thought wouldn't happen.

"I'll leave you two be for the night then." Hashirama said, getting up from his seat on the bed and slipping past Tobi and I out the door. "Goodnight, love birds." He teased before entering his room, my face flushing red as Tobirama huffed, his cheeks painted pink.

"In some ways, I'll be glad he'll be so far away." He muttered as I chuckled, wrapping my arms around his waist tightly

"Don't lie, we all know you'll miss him." I said quietly as he wrapped his arms around me, closing the door behind him as he lead me to the bed to sit.

"I'm glad your coming with me." Tobirama said after a few quiet moments. I looked up at him and smiled, taking his hand in mine as I leaned into his side, tracing the lines on his palm.

"Oh, I'll probably just be keeping you and Madara from killing each other. From the sounds of it you really hate him." I said with a chuckle, he smiled slightly, hesitantly pulling me closer as he laid a kiss on my head, his arms wrapping around my shoulders.

"I hate him for what he has done. The things he's destroyed and lives he's taken." He said, resting his chin on my head gently. "If he truly has taken this as a second chance and has.. changed, for your cousin.. I may be able to, at least be civil with him; though I cannot say the same for how he will behave." He said making me smile, leaning up to lay a soft kiss on his cheek, nuzzling my nose into the crook of his neck making him let out a breathy chuckle.

"Being civil is enough for me. Just as long as you two aren't at each others throats I think it'll be fine." I mused, relaxing in his touch as I felt calm with my eyes closed, leaning into him more while a comfortable silence settled over us. This was nice, really nice. Just me and Tobirama alone, his arm around me as I snuggled into his side.

"You're awfully clingy today." He muttered making me sigh.

"This just feels nice, having you here with me like this." I said making him smile, laying down with me now on his chest, his head rested on his pillows. Gentle hands moved my hips to place me laying on him, my legs on either side of him as his hands moved to my waist and he let out a pleasant sigh, digging his nose into my hair.

"This feels better, with you this close to me." He said quietly, I felt calm with him, like this was the only time in my life that truly mattered. It was so warm and nice with him, like I was in the eye of a storm where no cold or wind could reach me with just the glowing warmth of the sun around me.

"I'm really glad I met you." I told him, raising my head to look into his eyes as he looked at me curiously, leaning up slightly to kiss my forehead.

"I'm glad I met you too." He said, giving a small chuckle as he gave me a light squeeze. We talked for a bit longer before falling asleep, Tobi had pulled the covers over us and we ended up cuddled together, our legs tangled as he kept his arms protectively around me.

--------Hashirama's POV---------

It's been a little while since Max entered Tobi's room and the light was still on, but it's been quiet for a while and I'd be lying if I said I wasn't anxiously waiting to find out what was going on. I quietly opened the door, peaking my head in cautiously only to have to stop the gasp of joy I had at seeing Tobirama cuddled up with Max, a small smile on his face as he looked peaceful for the first time in a while. I carefully turned off the light, backing out and going back to my room, feeling lighter knowing my brother may not be as hopeless in the romance department as he was in our old world. Madara's found a woman, now Tobi, and.. even me again.

I couldn't wait to see how this all panned out.

------Tobirama's POV------

I woke up with Max still in my arms, her breathing soft as she slept, her fingers lightly gripping my shirt as I had a hand on her thigh and back. I laid my head back into the pillows and let out a sigh, turning my head to see the sunlight glowing pink in the morning air; last day here, in Seattle with my brother. I'll be honest that I was a little nervous for today, meeting Max's cousin. She seemed to be deeply infatuated with Madara, she seemed kind and innocent even with Madara so obviously ensuring the opposite; if she was anyone else, I'd despise her for being so naïve and stupid trusting the Uchiha, but she was Max's cousin, someone important to her. I couldn't let my disagreements with her choices effect how I act with her, if she doesn't like me then there's a chance Madara might be able to get her to convince Max I'm not right for her. But would he do that? He has enough hatred for me to believe he could do something like that, I suppose I could only put trust in Max to not blindly believe the Uchiha if he starts trying to drive a wedge between us. I was so lost in my thoughts I hardly noticed as Max shifted, her face sleepily looking up at my distant look, eyes gazing out the window before feeling her lips on my cheek as I snapped back to the present moment.

"As sexy as you look when you're thinking, it's a little too early for deep contemplative thinking." She said, my cheeks warming as I looked at her in slight surprise.

"I didn't realize you were awake." I said quietly causing her to chuckle, a smile on her face as she gave a content sigh, tucking her face into the crook of my neck as she placed a light kiss on my skin, a shiver going down my spine at the intimate contact. She smirked against my skin then slowly sat up, her hands rested on my lower stomach making my muscles clench as her fingers grazed my V-line through my black shirt.

"I kinda wish I wasn't. I like sleeping with you." She said, my face going a shade darker at her words before looking away, my eyes landing on the clock that read 7:30am.

"What time do we have to leave?" I asked her, seeing her look at the clock and think for a moment.

"It's almost a 4 hour drive, I told her we'd be there by 2 at the latest, so we've got at least 2 hours to get ready." She said making me smile, turning back to her as I pulled her closer, my nose brushing hers.

"Then, I'd say we just stay like this for a little longer." I said, kissing her softly as she grinned, smashing her lips into mine.

"I like that plan." She said, eliciting a chuckle from me as we laid there a little longer, until the sun was higher and B came to knock on my door to wish Max and I goodbye as she had her schooling to attend today. We then got up and I spent the rest of my time with Hashirama and Max before it got closer to the time we had to leave. We were all talking in the living room, Max was leaning into my side with my arm around her shoulders as Hashirama was in the chair I would usually occupy, when a note was slipped under the front door with a single knock and I could feel Max tense up instantly.

"Hey, what's wrong?" I asked her, seeing her eyes glues to the envelope laid on the wood floor. Hashirama got up, his face cautious as he approached the note and picked it up, opening it carefully as he walked back over, his face turning hard as he looked at the papers laid inside.

"This man is sick." He said, handing me the papers which turned out to instead be photos, some of just Max over the last week since the King incident, walking into buildings, sitting reading a book at a library, in the café with Liz, Hashirama and I, and even some from last night of Max laying on my chest, taken through the window in my room. I grit my teeth, Max's breath hitching as she looked at the photo's, sitting up as she looked at them with tears in her eyes.

"He's doing it again.." She muttered, her face looking numb like she was both in shock and petrified. I threw the photo's on the coffee table, pulling her back into my arms to hold her tight.

"It'll be okay. Soon we'll be hours away from him." I told her softly, trying to reassure her which seemed to do little to help before Hashirama pushed one of the papers to me.

"There's a note." He said, my eyes drawing to it as I felt my blood boil at the words written.

'Don't think any of this is over Ma. 

I'll get my payback on you later, for now just enjoy you're little trip. 

And remember, Maxine.

I've got eyes everywhere. 

-R'

"I should've killed him." I seethed, wishing I could burn that paper from existence, keep these awful things from Max and make them go away, but I knew I couldn't. I didn't even have the first idea how you go about dealing with something like this in this world, in our world it was as simple as kill or be killed for anyone outside of your clan; Rio would have been dead long ago if he grew up like I did.

"Tobi.. Maybe it's best if you leave early.." Hashirama said, looking down in disappointment. He clearly didn't want to see us leave so soon but.. it might be for the best given how Rio is now making it clear he's not letting this go.

"Brother-"

"No, I'm not going to sit and watch as Max is terrified and you both are in danger." He said making me pause, the seriousness in his voice making me sigh, he wasn't giving us much choice, but I don't know how good of an idea it is to let her drive in this state. I was hesitant even letting her drive after I had knocked Rio out, she was shaking so bad as I held her hand. I didn't want to see that again.

"He's right." Max said, sniffling slightly as she kept her head buried in my chest. "He doesn't know where Alex lives, I don't even think he knows what province she's in. If we'd be safe away from him anywhere, it'd be her place." She said making me snicker quietly, resting my head on hers.

"I'd rather take you back to our world. That way, you would always be safe from him." I muttered, Hashirama chuckled and nodded.

"I understand what you mean, little brother. I wish there was a way we could be in both worlds.." He said, Max chuckled and lifted her head slightly, her face had tear tracks running down her cheeks and I couldn't stop my hand from moving up to brush the water from her skin. 

"But then you'd have to keep me safe from the dangers of your world." She said making my gaze soften, a small smile on my face as I stared at her.

"It took 20 S rank shinobi to kill me the first time. I doubt it'd be an actual issue." I said making her look at me in surprise.

"Well, I didn't really know that.." She said, looking down slightly, a blush on her cheeks causing a chuckle to come from me.

"You don't know half of what I'm capable of, do you?" I asked her, her face turning a deeper red as Hashirama laughed.

"I thought you watched the battle scenes from the show?" He asked her, she hid her face in my chest and sighed.

"I mainly watched the fight with Izuna.. I didn't really know what battles you were in as they all had multiple people fighting in the same scene, so I didn't really know which ones to watch." She admitted bashfully making me chuckle, kissing her head slightly.

"Truthfully, I'm glad you haven't seen all my battles. I wouldn't want to risk you being afraid of me due to my strength.." I said, my eyes downcast as I thought of how I had thought she might have reacted to my full abilities. Would she honestly be scared? She knows I wouldn't hurt her, but would she know it if she saw how I fought? She looked at me curiously.

"I don't think I'd be afraid." She said, a thoughtful look on her face. "Though I will say, that water dragon was pretty cool." She mused with a laugh, I closed my eyes and chuckled.

"I actually invented that." I said, she looked at me in shock.

"Really?" She asked, I snickered in amusement and nodded.

"Tobirama created most Jutsu's common in the Hidden Leaf village. He was even the one to create Naruto's infamous Shadow clone Jutsu and the reanimation Jutsu as well as many others." Hashirama said, Max seemed to almost deflate at that making me raise a brow.

"Great, so I really am the stupid one in this relationship." She said making me laugh, that was really her first thought?

"I don't think you're stupid." I told her, though she gave me a look that had me laughing lightly. "Most of the time at least." I said, she rolled her eyes and crossed her arms over her chest, the lack of warmth from her arms making me frown.

"Rude." She said, looking away from me when Hashirama laughed.

"You know, you two are the most unlikely couple I think I've ever seen." He said, Max stuck her tongue out at him as I sighed, kissing her forehead gently.

"I won't deny that." I said, Max smacking my arm lightly making me smile. "No hitting." I said, seeing her grin.

"From the back." She said making me furrow my brows, not entirely understanding until Hashirama started to laugh, my face flushing red at the meaning of what she made it sound like I was saying.

"That is not-"

"Fair? I know. You seemed to enjoy doing that last time." She said, a wide smirk on her face as I groaned, my face red as I avoided looking at her or Hashirama, though I could still hear his laugh.

"And I will be glad to not have to hear that again after today." He teased, I was slightly mortified at the knowledge that he heard us, but I wasn't entirely surprised given how often they interrupted us.

"Blame him. It's his fault."

When we both eventually got up and got our coats on, we thankfully had time to spare and I could make a tea at work and sit in the backroom a bit and then I guess I could introduce my manager to Tobi just so she knows who he is; and why he's not really gonna be getting anything all night cause she does watch these things and I don't think Tobi wants her coming up asking if there's anything he'd like food or drink wise. I told him if he decided he wanted to try any food or the drinks, alcoholic or not, I'd get it for him as I got a staff discount with everything half off. There was a reason I liked working here.

We got our shoes on and walked out of the apartment, wishing Hashirama and B a goodnight, though the latter had already gone to bed. Tobi couldn't help himself from holding my waist while we took the elevator down, kissing my forehead softly making me sigh in content, leaning my head on his chest until the elevator dinged then taking his hand to lead him to my car. He opened my door for me making me grin as I got in, thanking him with a kiss on the cheek as he got in his seat before we were on our way to my work.

I lead Tobi through to the backroom, putting my coat and bag up in my locker before turning to him with my hands in my back pockets. He was looking around as we walked in, watching me walk over and knock on my manager Denise's door.

"Yes?- Oh, Maxie!" She said as she opened the door, pulling me into a hug quickly. "I am so glad to see you safe. I'm glad you could be here for one more night before you leave." She said before turning to Tobi with a hand on her hip.

"And who might this be?" She asked making me scratch the back of my neck, opening my mouth to speak before Tobi stuck out a hand for her.

"I'm Tobirama. I.. I've been staying with Max and am going with her when she leaves." He said with a slight bow which had her surprised. She raised a brow causing him to glance at me with a nervous glint in his eyes. "I just wanted to make sure she was safe tonight. Would it be alright if I stayed by the bar to keep an eye on her?" He asked her politely, straightening back up as she squinted at him for a moment.

"Alright, but I'm keeping an eye on you." She said, very weary of him for good reason seeing the situation I was currently in. "I've got eyes everywhere in here and there's a lot of patrons who come here specifically to order from her. If you cause trouble, you're out, got it?" She asked him, getting a firm nod from the Senju making her smile.

"Alright then. Enjoy your time here." She said, turning to me again.

"Bruno is at the door, filled him in quickly so everyone's getting their ID's checked very carefully upon entry and I got a photo of Rio so they know who to avoid. Any sign of him, and we'll get you out of here, okay?" She said making me smile and nod.

"Thank you, Denise." I said, she chuckled and patted my arm.

"You can thank me at the end of your shift when you come get your last paycheck. I had it drawn up so you wouldn't have to give anyone your new address incase he finds out." She said, smiling as she shooed me and Tobirama off to let me clock in.

"So, how annoyed should I expect to be throughout this whole ordeal?" He asked as we walked out to the front, him on the outside of the bar counter as I stood behind it, going to my station where he sat just to the side of me. I chuckled and leaned over the counter to give him my attention while I waited for customers; it was clearly the less busy kinda night so far from what it looked like. I would usually arrive right as it was getting really busy, so to see it slow usually meant the night was going to be at least not packed.

"Well, a lot of my customers like to flirt, but most are only here on super busy nights. I doubt many will show up in the middle of the week like this, so hopefully with any luck it'll be pretty chill tonight." I said, putting one of the small menu's beside him. "Incase you do decide to get anything, figured you'd at least like to look." I said just as the other bartenders Lily and Ian came up to me, Lilly giving me a hug.

"Oh, girl, I'm going to miss you! I don't know how I'll put up with this asshole without you." She said, referring to Ian as that 'asshole'. They were the typical best friends so obviously in love with each other but Lily is too much of a Tsundere so they are both very confused. I chuckled and hugged her back.

"I'll miss you too, but I'm sure you will be fine without me here. You were doing great before, you'll do great after. Don't credit me for everything." I said, she chuckled and rolled her eyes, Ian giving an awkward wave.

"Sorry to see you have to leave so suddenly. We understand why you've gotta go, and I hope you do finally get away from that dick." He said making me give a small smile, nodding before glancing at Tobi.

"Oh, I think I'll be just fine where I'm headed. Especially since I won't be alone." I said, Tobirama blushed slightly and turned his face away as Lily looked between him and I, Ian just looked kinda confused.

"Who's going with you? B?" He asked, only to have Lily smack him lightly before she turned her full attention to Tobi and I.

"So, who're you, mystery man?" She asked making me chuckle as he looked at her slightly surprised and hesitant, glancing at me but I just shrugged.

"This is Lily, she's been here the longest, Ian joined shortly after then me a few months later. Lily, Ian, this is Tobirama." I said, leaning over the counter to him with a smile on my face. "My boyfriend." I said, his face flushing at the word slightly as he kept a composed face, though his pale featured did anything but hide the pink dusting his cheeks.

"Never heard that kind of name before. Where are you from?" She asked him making him pause as I chuckled.

"Japan." I told her as he looked at me with a small, subtle appreciative glance. "Countryside though so not much traditional westernized stuff where he's from." I said making her look at him in surprise.

"Must be quite the difference being here then. Hope you're adjusting well." She said, Ian nodding in agreement.

"My sister went to Japan once, though I think she more went for the anime stuff then the culture." He said, looking at Tobirama curiously before his eyes seemed to light up for a moment. "Hey! That's why you look familiar! You kinda look like that Zero guy from one of the shows she likes!" He said making me look at him with my brows furrowed. He's an anime character that looks like another anime character? Interesting. Lilly looked at him in confusion.

"Is that the weird angsty vampire guy? Isn't Zero like, super fucking grumpy and borderline stalker type?" She asked making me snort, putting a hand over my mouth as I turned away from them, Tobirama staring with a blank face as he tried to decide if he was relieved they didn't recognize him, or repulsed by the fact they compared him to a 'weird vampire guy'.

"I can assure you, I am not a vampire or a stalker." He said making Lily freeze before turning to him.

"Well with a voice like that I think I'd be okay with either one of those. How the hell did you find him, Maxie? What are your secrets?" She asked, looking at me with squinted eyes as I laughed, waving her off.

"Technically, he found me." I said, with that the night went on, though my words danced in Tobi's mind all night long. He found me. He supposed I was right, but he couldn't shake those words, as if they had embedded a deep link to his mind and heart as he found himself feeling a flutter like never before in his chest; he didn't know what to make of this, already knowing he had feeling for me in some type of way, but not quite sure what to really think about it until now. He was growing attached to me he realized, like a child attached to their favorite blanket or stuffed animal, wanting to take it everywhere with you, go everywhere it goes, hold it close as it it was the comforting safety net you wanted even if you didn't need it.

And when the night ended, and I collected my last check, he looked at me a little differently. A little more of a soft edge to his gaze, his tone, his touch. When we got to my car, he was holding my hand, my bag on my shoulder as my keys were in my other hand, I was smiling. The night went well, no King, no Rio, no entitled customers to my delighted surprise; I thought it was going great. Then I saw the hooded black figure leaning against my hood and I felt my breath stop, my feet freezing in place as Tobirama's hand was pulled slightly as he looked back at me in confusion, his expression turning stern at the fear that was seen plain as day on my face. I squeezed his hand as I kept my gaze locked on the figure who now looked up, the streetlights letting me just barely see the smug smirk on his lips. Tobi's eyes trailed to where mine were staring, his back straightening at the figure in his sights.

"Rio.." I muttered, Tobirama giving a small squeeze to my hand back before slipping his arm around my waist protectively and leaning his lips down to my ear, never taking his eyes off the figure.

"I'll kill him before I let him touch you again." He whispered, kissing my head softly making me relax slightly, knowing as long as Rio didn't have a gun, Tobirama could most definitely take him in a fight. I'd watched a few of the battle scenes in the anime and he was incredibly fast, but I don't want to risk a bullet being faster. I just hoped it didn't come down to a fight.

"I don't want you do get hurt if he gets violent." I said, it was my one fear besides my own self, even then I would rather give myself up if it meant Tobi got away without a scratch. He looked at me kindly before leading me toward the car slowly, stopping a few feet from my stalker ex who looked at Tobirama with a sadistic glint that make my blood run cold. He was angry, very angry.

"So, I finally get to meet my replacement." Rio said, lifting his hood off his face to reveal the tanned skin, short dark hair and the eagle tattoo boldly placed along his neck, a cocky smirk on his face as he snickered. "Gotta say, a little disappointed. I expected more from someone ballsy enough to try and intimidating King." He said making me roll my eyes, his expression turning slightly irritated at my minor act of disrespect.

"Just cause you've got a new boy don't mean I won't still smack some respect into you if I need to." He threatened making Tobi glare, his arm around me tightening, the air felt almost electric, his body felt like it was buzzing as his hands touched the skin of my side.

"I won't let you lay a finger on her." He said, Rio looked at him, eyebrows raised as he laughed.

"Think you're some big shot? Huh?" Rio asked, looking like he was thinking for a moment. "What's you're name again? Tommy? Timmy?-"

"Tobi." He said, cutting Rio off making him smirk.

"Right, Tony." He said, taking a step forward as Tobi pushed me behind him slightly. "See, I don't think you understand who I am, Tobi." He said, a mocking tone in his voice when he said his name.

"I know enough." Tobi said, my hands were gripping the arm of his coat, I wanted to leave but he was between me and the car, I'm so glad B made me take her car now, she figured Rio might try to tag the car so she had me take hers so mine should be clear. "I know how you hurt her. How you abused her in any way you could. I know how much of a pathetic excuse of a man you are to even lay a hand on the woman you supposedly loved." He said venom in his words as I felt both flustered at him defending me but also fear at him angering Rio anymore. Rio clenched his jaw, his hands in his pockets as I eyed the gun I saw tucked in his waistband, we needed to leave.

"You know, you've got a big mouth, and I don't like guys like that." He said, though Tobi just rolled his eyes.

"Good, then the feeling is mutual." He said, pulling me just a bit closer to him. "Now leave Max alone, or I'll deal with you myself." He said, his tone dark making a shiver go through me, the air felt too cold on my skin as my anxiety made me shake.

"You think I'll just, let her go?" Rio asked with a laugh, shaking his head. "She's mine. Even if I'm not with her, Max will always be mine. I did brand her for a reason after all." He said with that smug smirk that made me want to puke.

"You are a vile person, a pathetic boy if you need to brand a woman to keep her." Tobi said, and I could feel my eyes widen as I recognized the dark look on Rio's face, his hand moving to take out his gun from his waistband as my hands tightened around Tobi's arm.

"He's armed." I said quietly, Tobirama's eyes narrowing as he put his arms around me, I barely had time to process it before I was suddenly behind Rio by the driver's door, Rio on the ground with his gun laid far away from him. He hurriedly stood back up, turning around as I realized Tobi was still beside me, he ran for his gun as Tobi quickly ushered me into the car, turning to Rio who was now shakily pointing his gun at the Senju.

"What the fuck was that?!" He asked, breathing a little heavy as he stared wide eyed at the white haired man who was gone the next second, suddenly behind him again.

"If you ever come after Max or I again, or even Bradley or anyone else Max cares about, I will hunt you down and make sure you pay for the things you've done to her." he said, hitting Rio over the head as I watched with wide eyes as his body fell limply to the ground. I couldn't take my eyes off of his unconscious body as Tobirama got in the car, sensing my pause and turning to me, his face softening from the anger he had felt as he took my hand gently. I turned to him, his eyes held an apology for letting me see that, though I couldn't help the feeling of relief and slight joy at seeing Rio fall like that after such an easy fight with him. "Max, I'm sorry, I didn't want you to-" I leaned over the center console and smashed my lips into his, a hand on the back of his neck pulling him in as he kissed me back. I could feel his relief pouring into the kiss, his hand holding my cheek gently when we pulled back, looking into each others eyes deeply before he kissed my forehead softly.

"I'm glad you're safe." He said making me smile, pecking his lips.

"I am thanks to you." I said, seeing the pride shine in his eyes. We went home with my hand holding his, his fingers squeezing mine occasionally and he spent the morning in the living room with me, holding me tight in his arms as he tried to make that feeling of security come back to me after the encounter. I appreciated his efforts, even when I fell asleep as he held me and Hashirama and B came in from waking up. They could tell something had happened, but at seeing Tobirama with such a soft look on his face as he stared at me, his hands running through my hair gently as I let out soft breaths from my place laid on his chest, they didn't have the heart to ask and possibly disturb the peace surrounding us at the moment. And I was glad they didn't, as I was happy there, in Tobirama's arms. I felt safe the moment he grabbed me, I know he'd protect me.

I trust him.

---------Max's POV---------

The next day I woke up to a light knock on my door making me groan, burying my face into the warmth under me. It rumbled as I heard Tobi's chuckle in my ears making me squint my eyes open and look up at him, his hands pausing from where they were rested in my hair.

"Don't laugh at me." I grumbled, reluctantly sitting up as the blanket fell off my waist as I stretched lightly, looking back to see his eyes on my chest making me grin. "We're busy, come back later." I called to them, hearing B laugh.

"It's almost noon, wake the fuck up." She laughed making me glare at the door.

"How do you know I was sleeping?" I asked, huffing slightly as Tobirama chuckled.

"Because I know you, and because I couldn't hear your bong or the sound of you and Tobirama going at it again. Which has scared me for life by the way, thanks Tobi. I never want to hear those noises ever again." She said before she walked away as I blushed furiously. Tobi grinned and sat up once she was gone, pulling me closer until I stood on my knees over his bare thighs, his hands sliding up to cup my ass making me gasp.

"You're beautiful." He said, a hand moving up my waist until he pulled me closer, his face burying in my chest as I grinned. I tangled my fingers in his hair as I wrapped my arms around his neck to pull him closer. I shuddered as I felt him lick up the valley of my breasts, staring up at me as he took a nipple into his mouth making me moan quietly; I whined as the hand he had on my ass moved to the front of my thighs, his fingers tracing my entrance.

"Tobi~.." I moaned quietly, before another knock on my door sounded out making Tobi groan in frustration as he pulled away from me.

"What?" He snapped harshly making me sigh, deciding to sit in his lap as I laid soft kisses along his neck causing his tense muscles to relax.

"Quite the attitude today, little brother." Hashirama laughed from the other side making the albino scowl.

"Only because I keep getting interrupted by you and Bradly every time Max and I are in here." He grouched making Hashirama and I chuckle. I leaned up to kiss under his jaw softly making him sigh, closing his eyes for a moment.

"Save that frustration for later and I'll let you take it out on me." I muttered in his ear, his breath hitching as his hands on my hips tightened; he let out a shuddering breath as I slid my hands down his chest to his V-line.

"B is taking me to Liz's café today before she leaves for work.. I wanted to ask Max if she thought, now would be a good time to tell her of our situation.." He said making me sigh, pulling away from the man who held my attention all night to look at the closed door. Tobi leaned his head into my neck, littering it in soft kisses making me hum in pleasure.

"I'll text her to let her know your coming to talk to her about something. She doesn't like surprise visits if its something serious." I called as I reached for my phone, hearing him let out a relieved sigh as Tobirama gulped, his eyes trained on my chest as I leaned past him.

"Thank you." Hashirama said making me chuckle, sending the text quickly before throwing my phone onto a near by cushion.

"Don't thank me yet, you've still got to win her over." I said before hearing him walk away, I turned back to Tobi to see him looking at me with a thoughtful face making me raise a brow. "See something you like?" I asked him teasingly making him smile slightly.

"Oh, yes. I'll admit I have the best view at the moment." He said, his eyes trailing up and down my form making me smirk, pushing him back on the bed lightly.

"Why don't I give you a better one?" I asked seductively, settling down further on the bed until I was face to face with his already hard member, his cheeks painted red as he realized what I meant.

"M-Max, you don't need to-!" He was cut off by a moan as I licked from his base to tip, grinning up at his blissful face. "Fuck.." He groaned as I did it again, dragging my tongue along the underside of his tip lightly making him jump slightly with a moan.

"But I want to." I said, his eyes half lidded as he stared down, watching with lust blown eyes as I took him into my mouth slowly. His head dropped back into the pillows as I swirled my tongue over his tip, a hand moving to gently fondle his balls making him gasp, looking up to see him put a hand over his mouth as he let out a loud moan. I was thrilled to know he was feeling this way because of me, to know I could please him just the same as he's done for me; the sounds he was making was reward enough, his deep voice sounding like the sweetest melody I've ever heard. I took more of him in, his tip hitting the back of my throat as his hand founds its way into my long hair, tugging slightly as I bobbed my head on his length.

"Oh, Kami.. Damnit." He moaned, I looked up at him through my lashes, hollowing my cheeks as he looked down and groaned. "Fuck, Max.. Kami, you look so~ good like this.." He breathed, lightly pushing my head further almost making me gag as I tried to relax my throat, though he seemed to like it more as he bucked himself into my mouth slightly with a strained moan.

"Oh, fuck.. Just like that, baby.." He groaned, I could feel tears gathering in my eyes as I felt his hands tugging at my hair, guiding my head lightly as I sucked him off harder, his hips starting to buck harder in response. I moaned and whimpered at the pain, staring up at his flustered and strained face which served as encouragement as I tried relaxing more, letting his hand tug me down further until my nose just touched his pelvis. The feel and view of my lips wrapped tight around the base of his cock, eyes looking up at him with my teary and lustful gaze seared into his mind, burning an indescribably irresistible image into his memory as he squeezed his eyes shut. "Ah~! Max, I'm gonna-" He cut himself off with a a loud groan, pressing my head down on his member as he came; I moaned at the feel of his cum shooting down my throat, milking him for a moment before he pulled me up. He stared at me as he sat there, leaning back on his forearm with his face flushed red and breaths coming out in heavy pants, he was almost shaking as he stared at me with wide and dazed eyes. I swallowed anything left in my mouth, only panting slightly when I crawled up to place a gentle kiss on his neck, he sighed and laid back on the bed again, wrapping an arm around my waist, the other caressing my thigh softly.

"I'm sorry.." He whispered, laying a kiss on my forehead as I laid there on his chest, I looked up at him and smirked.

"Why are you apologizing? Just because I've had bad experienced in the past doesn't mean I can't like a little man handling." I said, his eyes looking at me unsure. "Only from you though. I actually like your hands on me, a lot." I admitted making him blush, his hand on my waist sliding up my back as his other one rested on my hip.

"Like this?" He asked softly making me chuckle, placing a chaste kiss on his lips as I grinned at him.

"You can put your hands wherever you want, Tobi-sama." I purred, my tone lowering an octave as he closed his eyes and shivered for a moment.

"Fuck.. you're like a sex fiend.." He muttered, pulling me down for a kiss which I happily returned.

"Only when I find someone worth my attention. I don't act like this for just any guy, ya know." I said with a chuckle, he smiled and brushed some hair from my face.

"Good." He said quietly. "I'm not keen on sharing."

----------------------

That night I was getting ready for work, I told Tobi to maybe pick out a book or two incase he got bored however he said he'd be fine; I still brought one of the books I snatched from the small stack he had yet to read in his room and put it in my bag. I was hoping nothing happened tonight, involving Rio or anyone else considering it is still a bar and some of my customers tend to get a little flirty with me. I don't know how Tobirama is going to sit with that one. Hashirama also scored a night with Liz which was where he currently was, having dinner over there since I guess it just so happened to be a night where Augie was sleeping over at a friends and Anne had taken Lorelei to her grandparents for the night to give Liz a small break from dealing with the colic the poor baby was going through.

I just entered my room after my shower, only wearing my bra and panties as I looked through what to wear when I heard a knock on my door. I walked over and opened it a crack to peak my head out only to see Tobirama with a raised eyebrow.

"Should I come back later?" He asked with a slight chuckle as I smiled and rolled my eyes, walking away from the door but leaving it open.

"Don't leave the door open too long, I'm not exactly decent." I said over my shoulder as I heard the door open, shutting fairly quickly after. I walked over and opened my closet, looking through my shirts to go back to what I was previously doing, picking an outfit. We still had a good 2 hours before we had to go and my makeup was fairly quick so I wasn't concerned with time. I felt Tobirama wrap his arms around me, laying his head on my head as he looked at my clothes with me.

"Why do you think so hard about what you wear?" He asked making me snicker.

"Because if I look good, I feel good. If I feel good, I can get more done." I said, leaning my head back on his shoulder as I looked at him. "Besides, I make more money there if I look good while making the drinks." I said, turning my head to lay a kiss on his neck.

"Am I going to have to hear your patrons flirting with you all night?" He asked making me chuckle, nodding lightly.

"Most likely." I mused as he sighed, burying his nose in my neck.

"Tell them your taken." He said making me grin playfully.

"Am I?" I asked him, turning in his grip until I faced him where he had his brows furrowed.

"I thought we were.. seeing each other now." He said making me chuckle, wrapping my arms around his neck.

"You never asked to make this an official relationship. Is that what you want?" I asked him, he blushed and looked away.

"I- Well.. Yes.. I would like to, make this official with you.. If, you're okay with that." He said making me giggle, kissing his cheek.

"Then I guess I really am taken." I said before a thought came over me. "You do know, if Rio finds out about this it will just make things worse, right?" I asked him cautiously as he sighed and nodded.

"I guess it's good we'll be gone in 2 days then." He said making me chuckle, I knew I was only going to work to let my regulars know I wouldn't be there anymore. I figured it was the least I could do since I'm leaving on such short notice.

"Yes, that is very good." I said, leaning my head on his chest, his arms tight around me before he sighed.

"So, what are you going to wear then?" He asked making me turn back to my closet and sigh, leaning my head back into him.

"What do you want me to wear?" I asked him, looking up at him as he looked at my closet in thought.

"Would you really let me pick for you?" He asked and I smiled, nodding.

"Sure. I don't mind." I said, he let me go, looking through my closet as I sat back on my bed, watching him as he picked what he thought was best; it was quite amusing to watch him look through just how many clothes I actually had.

"I don't think I've ever met a woman with this many clothes." He muttered making me laugh.

"If you think that's bad, you should see how much jewelry I have." I said, getting up and walking over to my vanity, opening the mirror to the cabinet behind it, necklaces on hooks on the back of the mirror door while earrings of all kinds and two boxes filled with bracelets. A lot of it was cheap but cute things, like my sexy mushroom lady earrings, or the ceramic bee earrings I made in my senior year. He chuckled and shook his head before turning back to my clothes.

"That is way too much jewelry." He chuckled, glancing at me over his shoulder. "Do you even wear them all?" He asked making me chuckle.

"Well, some I got because they were funny, but those ones aren't in here. These are the choices I feel I'd actually wear and I have worn all if not almost all the different pairs in here at least once." I said, looking at all the different metals and the different colors. I stood up and walked back over to him, wrapping my arms around his waist as I rubbed my face into his back. "I like how warm you are." I said, his frame rumbling slightly as he chuckled, turning and laying a kiss on my head softly.

"Probably because you don't have anything on. Here, try this." He said, handing me a shirt and pants which I raised an eyebrow at. "You said I could pick." He said with a slight smirk making me snicker in amusement. 

"I didn't say anything." I said, taking the clothes from him as he rolled his eyes.

"I could feel the comment brewing." He said making me chuckle, moving to put the clothes on when he turned around, a blush on his face as I bend down to put my pants on.

"Aw, Tobi, no need to be so shy around your own girlfriend." I said once I got the pants up, walking over to him as I took my bra off. He just so happened to pick one of the shirts its better I don't wear a bra in, heh. He turned around before blushing furiously to see my bare chest, turning back around immediately as if I'd scold him for seeing me in such indecent clothing.

"I-I thought you were putting more clothes on, not taking them off." He said, his voice slightly shaky as I moved to stand in front of him, looking up at him with doe eyes.

"I am, but this shirt isn't worn with a bra. Why? Do you not want me to be like this in front of you, Tobi-sama?" I asked, my tone light and airy as I ran a hand up his arm making him shudder.

"No. I-I mean, yes. I mean- Oh, fuck it." He said, slamming his lips into mine before picking me up and pressing me to the wall roughly. He held me up by my thighs as my hands automatically reached for his hair, pulling gently at the soft white strands as I wrapped my legs around his hips; I moaned as his lips moved from my lips down my neck to my chest, his tongue darting out to flick my nipple making me gasp.

"Tobi~!" I moaned as he smirked, sucking on my nipple harshly before moving back to my neck, leaving a dark hickey in clear view along all the lighter marks littering my skin. I whimpered as I tried to pull him closer, whining when he suddenly put me down, leaning his forehead on mine as he closed his eyes.

"Fuck.. I'm sorry." He said, looking at me with a guilty look. "I shouldn't be acting so impulsive." He muttered making me chuckle, gently kissing his lips.

"Tobi, I'm your girlfriend now. Don't be afraid to touch me." I said before going to put my shirt on, lacing it up the front as I got ready for work, spending whatever leftover time I had with him cuddled in my bed.

---------Max's POV---------

Tobirama kicked the door closed gently, dropping my shirt and laying me down on the bed carefully. He stared down at me for a moment, taking in my form and trying to memorize the imagine in front of him before he took his shirt off, his eyes calculating as he kneeled in between my open legs, his hands resting on my knees and slowly sliding up my thighs. I bit my lip as I felt his fingertips brush under the hem of my shorts while he smirked down at me, leaning forward as he ran a hand up my body, stealing my lips in a gentle kiss. I wrapped my arms around his neck, pulling him closer as my fingers found their way into his soft snow white hair; our lips moved in sync with each other, his hands exploring my skin eagerly when he cupped my breasts, kneading and caressing the mounds in his rough hands as I moaned into our kiss. His fingers pinched and twisted my nipples in his fingers, he grinned at the sounds I was making, trailing his kisses from my lips to my neck where he laid soft butterfly kisses over the hickey's from only days prior.

"Tobi~.. " I moaned, his kisses trailing down until he took one of my nipples into his mouth, flicking the small nub with his tongue as I gasped, moaning as he trailed a hand down my stomach. He hooked his fingers under the hem of my shorts, pulling them and my panties down and off my body; he trailed his hands back up my thighs before sliding up my slit, my arousal soaking his fingers quickly making me shudder. He slowly rubbed my clit, his mouth switching breasts as I bucked my hips into his hand, craving the friction between us making him chuckle.

"Are you that impatient?" He asked, voice taunting me as he trailed back up to my neck, my head tilting back to expose more of my skin to him. I whimpered grinding down on his hand as he slipped a finger into me, his thumb still on my clit eliciting breathy moans and small whines from me.

"Please Tobi.. want you, please.." I moaned, loosing myself in the pleasure, my body felt like it was on fire, hot and needy for the man towering above me; I craved him, his touch, his kiss. It all drove me crazy, like he was the most addicting drug I've ever tried and right now, I couldn't get enough of him. "Want you so bad.. Please~!" I moaned, maybe a little too loudly as he pressed a harsh kiss to my lips, his hands leaving me as he kneeled back, kicking his sleeping pants and boxers off.

"You want this?" He teased, smirking as he lightly stroked himself. I could feel my mouth water at the sight of him, his tip leaking precum as his fist slowly moved up and down his thick length.

"Yes! Please Tobirama-sama~!" I whimpered, trying not to be too loud but my begging and whining seemed to have finally made him snap as his demeanor changed, his cock twitching in his hand.

"Say it again." He growled, a hand on my thigh as he leaned forward, pulling me closer to him by my legs making me gasp, his tip rubbing against my slit as I moaned.

"Tobirama-sama, please.. I need you!" I mewled, gasping as Tobirama thrust into me, capturing my lips in a hungry kiss to muffle our moans. He stayed still for a moment, letting me adjust to the tight squeeze since it had been a few days since we had last been together like this before I bucked my hips into his, signaling him to move as I moaned into the kiss. He started out slow, his thrusts steady and deep making me whine out in pleasure as he groaned above me quietly; his hands were holding my thighs back, the plush flesh soft in his firm grip.

"F-fuck.. Max." He moaned, burying his face in my chest as he took one of my nipples into his mouth again. I threw my head back, tangling my fingers in his hair as I gasped out, whimpering as I tried to be quiet; though he was making that very difficult.

"Tobi-sama.. faster, please~.." I moaned, his hips complying as his pace increased, the drag of his cock felt like heaven as he thrusted into me. His lips were like fire on my skin, his touch sweet like honey making my head dizzy with pleasure; I felt like I was on cloud 9 as I moaned out beneath him, his lips pressing against my own as I got a little too loud. He pressed himself flush against me, his hips rocking into me a little harder as he seemed to find that one spot that made me tense, my stomach tightening a I felt my orgasm approaching. "Fuck, right there.. Please!" I moaned, diving back in for another kiss when his thrusts suddenly got faster, hitting that precious spot over and over again. I don't even think our kisses could muffle my moans enough, but I didn't care right now.

"Kami, you're so beautiful.." He groaned, staring down at me, pupils blown with lust as he stared at me like a starving animal. He kissed me harshly again, our tongues battling for dominance as I cried out under him, clinging to him as I suddenly felt my climax wash over me, my back arching off the bed as I held him tight against me. He grunted as I clenched down on him, his hips getting faster as one of his hands moved down to start rubbing my clit frantically, my nails clawing at his back as I felt tears in my eyes; it felt too good, I didn't want him to stop. My legs twitched softly as he continued to abuse my poor cunt, pounding into me as our kisses turned sloppy, both of us drunk off our pleasure as he chased his high. 

"'m gonna cum.." He groaned as we parted for breath, his thrusts getting faster as I cried out his name as he quickly brought me to my second orgasm, throwing my head back into the pillows as he gave a few more hard thrusts before he stilled in me, feeling the warmth of his seed spreading through me. He let out a breathy moan as he came, burying his face in my neck as he and I panted heavily, needing to take a moment to come down from our highs after something so intense. I held him tightly, running my hands through his hair when I felt him laying soft kisses along my shoulder making me let out a sigh of content; even just this felt nice, laying with him.

"Thank you.." I said softly, kissing the side of his head as I hugged him.

"For what?" He asked, his voice vibrating against the skin of my neck.

"For not using me like everyone else."

---------Tobirama's POV---------

"For not using me like everyone else." She said softly and I felt my throat tighten, I still felt so guilty for how I treated her, but I guess this can be a start in me making it up to her. I wanted to show her I wasn't going to hurt her, that I do care about her; even if I wasn't entirely sure how I felt in the first place. I knew I cared, that was enough. At least for now.

"I promise, I will never use you like so many vile people have in your life." I told her, looking into her dark eyes sincerely, her gaze softening as she leaned up to place a short kiss on my lips.

"I believe you." She said, smiling in a way that made my heart swell with a new type of pride. I was proud she believed me, but why? Sure, I was telling the truth, but why was her believing in my promise causing such a reaction from me? I stared into her eyes for a moment, looking for any hesitancy or lie, but finding none as I leaned down and kissed her softly. I carefully pulled out of her, hissing at the feel of her walls trying to pull me back in as she let out a quiet moan; kami, she sounded beautiful. I laid down beside her and pulled her close to me, her head resting on my chest as I looked at the clock, 4 am it read making me look down at Max and sigh.

"Looks like we won't be getting much sleep." I said tiredly as she looked at the digital numbers and chuckled.

"We could always sleep in, you know." She said making me think for a moment. I don't think I've actually slept in unless I had to; I suppose this may be a good time to see if its even worth it to me I guess.

"Okay, but I'm more then likely going to wake up early whether I want to or not. I'm a light sleeper." I told her, a grin spreading across her face.

"Funny, I can sleep through almost anything." She said making me chuckle.

"That, I believe." I said, remembering when we first got here, I had actually walked out of my room and saw the two girls on the couch, I almost dropped my sword as I saw Max in her short skirt and oversized sweater. Her legs were on full display despite the blanket she cuddled, her small clothing was doing little for the imagination which had caused me to rush back where I had come, which was when Hashirama had stuck his head out his door cautiously. Thus, how we ended up in the same room when Max had found us discussing what to do.

I'll admit, I got quite defensive after getting so flustered at her lack of proper clothing, which may have added to why I was such a dick to her and not Bradly. I was very surprised neither of the two girls had woken up to us, we were not exactly quiet upon waking up. Well, Hashirama wasn't. He fell out of his bed as soon as he woke up apparently. I thought back to the past few weeks, before suddenly I thought of something. Max called out of work for tonight, how long will they let her be absent? What will happen once she comes with me to Canada? The thought of her going back to her work unprotected, even if she was driving and said she was fine, it made my chest tighten, a sinking feeling rising in my stomach as I thought of how Rio could be anywhere around her and not even be noticed. I swallowed thickly, I didn't even know what this guy looked like. How can I protect her from someone when I don't know who it is?

"I want to come with you to your work the rest of the week." I said, it was impulsive, but I wouldn't be able to sleep knowing she could be hurt so much in those hours she'd be gone. I could barely sleep the first night after the incident with King, worried she'd be right and Rio would come for her that night, so I stayed up just in case. Those scars she showed me, it made my blood boil. I wanted to protect her while I could. She looked at me in surprise, the seriousness of my tone catching her off guard.

"Tobi, I work at a bar. I doubt you'd like it there." She said, clearly hesitant about bringing me along.

"I wouldn't be there to enjoy myself. I want to make sure you are safe." I told her, she sighed and laid her head on my chest.

"You're going to come whether I let you or not, aren't you?" She asked making me chuckle slightly, I probably would. It wouldn't be hard to follow her car, even if I kept an eye on her from afar.

"More then likely." I said, running my fingers through her hair gently as she sighed, looking up at me.

"Fine, but you can't distract me while I'm working." She said and I nodded, as long as I could make sure she was safe, I'd stay clear out of her way. Maybe I could just sit at the bar with her; I'd be out of the way and we'd both be in view of each other since I'm sure she has reserves about me going to such a location. I'm not exactly known to be the most tolerant with intoxicated strangers.

"I promise, you'll hardly know I'm there." I said, she rolled her eyes and sighed.

"I doubt that, but I'll humor you for now." She said making me smile. "Okay, now sleep. I'm not dealing with a grumpy Tobi my whole shift." She said, leaning up to kiss my cheek before she settled into the bed. I smiled, my arm wrapped around her back as she hugged my waist; I leaned down to press a firm kiss to her head before I sighed, running my hand up and down her back gently as I gave her a small squeeze.

"Goodnight, Max." I said, smiling as I felt her lightly kiss my chest.

"Goodnight Tobi-sama.." She said, I could feel my face flush at that. Kami, this woman is going to be the death of me if she keeps this up.

Careful, I bite. Chapter 15

Masterlist

The night went by with just mindless chatter and vague planning on how this will go, seeing as it was pretty straight forward now that we had almost everything. We eventually all turned in for the night, ending up with me here, laying on my bed as I tried to get sleep to visit me but as I lay awake nothing helped. Smoking just got me high out of my mind, sleep didn't even try to take over as I was zooted to the sky, which was strange because I used a strain that normally would knock me out cold within an hour; now I just wanted to be asleep or at least not this high as I stumbled out of my room hugging a fluffy blanket around me, throwing it on the couch in the dim living room.

I stumbled into the kitchen, turning on the kettle as I got a cup down from the cupboard, suddenly feeling dizzy as I leaned back on the counter to stop my head from spinning. Once I felt steady enough I mixed up some hot chocolate, being very careful to not pour the hot water on myself when I carefully brought it over to the coffee table, turning the TV to Spotify and setting it to volume 5 before playing my 'Quiet' playlist, Sparks by Coldplay softly ringing through the apartment as I lit a cinnamon vanilla candle that we always had sat on the coffee table. I glanced at the open curtain of the patio as my leg bounced, taking a minute before finally getting up and quickly shutting the curtain, goosebumps on my skin as I tried to rub my arms for warmth, sitting down and clutching the hot chocolate close to me. I took small sips as I wrapped the blanket back around me, letting my unusually cold figure shiver slightly even with all these layers, sighing as I leaned back on the couch, letting the music flow over me as the song changed. My lips mouthed the lyrics to Romantic Homicide by d4vd as I stared off into nothing for a while, soon and slowly falling to sleep, unaware of the nightmare that laid waiting for me.

---------Tobirama's POV---------

I got up in the middle of the night to use the bathroom, looking at the digital clock beside my bed and sighing as it read 2 am. We had all called it a night at 11 due to the stressful day so I was a little irritated at needing to wake up so soon, but I just got up and left my room, it was only upon exiting the bathroom though did I notice the soft sound of singing and music from the living room, the faint glow from the TV and a candle lighting up the area. I looked at the couch to see Max sat there, bundled up in a fluffy blanket looking like she was freezing to death with how she shivered; I sighed and walked over to her, noticing her closed eyes and deciding to blow out the candle before turning to walk out the room when I paused upon hearing a whimper.

"Stop it.." I could hear her mutter, my shoulders tensing as I slowly turned back to her to see her eyes still closed, her brows knitted together as she looked uncomfortable, maybe even scared. It made my heart ache in a strange way as my brows furrowed. "No.. Get away.." She mumbled, starting to shift in her sleep as she almost tried to move back. I cautiously stepped closer, eyeing her wearily before looking to the TV and getting an idea. I carefully grabbed the remote, turning the music up a little and turning to the next song before getting one of the throw pillows on the chair and placing it on one end of the couch; I slowly tried to ease my hands under her when she curled away from my touch, whimpering again.

"Stop it, Rio.." She muttered making me stop, pulling my hands back as I could feel my gaze soften. She was having a nightmare about him? How awful did he treat her? I know she showed me the scar from him basically branding her but.. "Please, stop.." She whispered, her voice cracking as a tear fell down her cheek. I didn't know what I was doing but before I could think I had a hand cupping her cheek gently, placing my forehead against hers.

"You're okay, Max." I whispered to her softly, her features loosing their fearful edge for a moment. "He's not here. He can't get to you." I said quietly, moving to sit beside her as she turned and all but latched onto me making me sigh.

"Tobi..." She muttered, taking in a deep breath as she blinked slowly a few times, tears beading from her eyes as she suddenly let out a sob, hugging me close as I tried to comfort her, rubbing her back and running a hand through her hair. I feel her shake as she tried to keep in her cries, sitting her on my lap as I shushed her gently, her face was buried in the crook of my neck and I could feel her tears on my skin making my heart clench; I didn't want to see her like this, but how can I help her? The only thing I figured to do was let her cry, keeping her close as she calmed down some, her sobs slowly fading as the song changed, I glanced up at the TV and thought of something I could use to distract her.

"Can you tell me what song this is?" I whispered, her sniffled stopped for a moment as she thought about what I said.

"When the party's over, by Billie Eilish." She muttered against my skin. I smiled and placed a small kiss on her shoulder.

"What about this one?" I asked, changing the song from one soft tune to the next; I could feel her smile softly against my skin after the first few notes played.

"Like real people do by Hozier." She said, a little louder then before as she sighed, her tense body relaxing slightly in my hold. I kissed the side of her head and kept my arms firmly around her, I didn't know if I'd actually be able to help; I guess I surprised myself with how natural I seemed to do this, to hold her, to help her. I felt like I was the one who needed to protect her, but it was conflicting as I still barely knew her or this world.

"I'm sorry for when I called you pathetic.." She muttered after a few quiet moments. I looked at her and furrowed my brows, before remembering and sighing.

"Don't be." I said, brushing some hair out of her face as I gazed into her eyes. "I think you may have been right then.. I was angry Madara got to live a normal life after everything he's done. I didn't want him to get his perfect life when I was stuck with nothing in this world besides my brother. Even if we went back, who knows if we'd even be alive." I admitted hesitantly, it was a hard reality to accept, that I now had to make a new home in a world still unknown to me. I didn't know what I could do, how I'd live. I refuse to rely on Max or Alex my whole life here.

"You were rightfully upset. I should have dropped the discussion even if I didn't agree with it. I'm sorry." I told her, trying to tell her how I was now truly sorry for my previous actions, knowing I have yet to give her that real apology even with.. what happened.. between us. She looked up at me for a moment, my hand moving to brush some hair from her tear stained face as she smiled.

"I forgive you." She said, my own small smile crossing my face.

"I'm glad." I said, she chuckled and leaned up to place a kiss on my lips, my cheeks turning pink in response as I looked away from her in embarrassment. 

"Don't hide from me." She chuckled as she put a hand on my cheek, turning me back to look at her. She wrapped her arms around my neck as she kneeled over me, her legs on either side of my thighs making my breath involuntarily hitch, my arms wrapping around her waist almost like a reflex. "I'm not going to bite, you know." She said, tilting her head at me as she chuckled.

"I might." I muttered, casting my gaze to the side as she smirked.

"Oh? You seemed more bark then bite a few days ago." She said teasingly, my cheeks turning red as the memory of her on top of me flashed through my mind. "You look cute when you blush. Kinda wish I could see you like this more often." She teased, my cheek felt hot as her smile widened, I could only guess what my face looked like to her right now. I huffed and turned my head away from her, only for her to lean in close, her nose brushing my neck as she placed a soft kiss on my collar; damn me for wearing such a loose t-shirt, I couldn't focus with her lips on me like this. My mind was racing as I tried to decide between giving in and figuring out a way out of this, I felt her hands on the edge of my shirt, her hands gently gliding against my bare skin as if waiting for my permission to proceed when I caught her hands.

"W-wait.. I-.. What were you dreaming about?" I asked, stumbling as I tried to think of something to change the subject. She's dealing with so much right now, I can't take advantage of her like this, it'd be worse then what I've already done; I can't keep using her when she's vulnerable, she was drunk the first time, in an already compromising position the second time. I can't keep making this a habit. She paused and looked at me hesitantly, a change in her demeanor making me realize my question may have a heavier answer then I had thought, suddenly feeling guilty for even asking before she sighed.

"Rio.. when I didn't do what he said.. he got violent; but it wasn't just.. hitting me.." She said softly, her hands leaving my skin to lay at her sides making me look at her in concern, noticing how glassy her eyes became at the mention of her past relationship; if you could even call it that. "There were times he would.. force himself on me, sometimes threatening my life if I didn't obey him.." The way she spoke was so numb, like she was telling someone something so detached from herself and mundane, that it didn't bother her, but I could see how it did. Her eyes cast down, more focused on my shirt then me; her hands seeming to shake at her sides just slightly, the way the spark in her eyes and that cheeky attitude vanished like it was never there to begin with. It all made my heart ache as I realized just how wrong I was to judge her when I got here; I judged her for how she looked, the way she acted, her attitude.. I never thought of the person underneath all of that, that here could be something more to why she turned out this way.

"Max.." I said softly, my hands bringing hers to mine as she sighed.

"I don't want pity." She said, staring at our intertwining hands before she looked up at me. "Ever since Rio, I've never felt like I could trust another man.. But after the party.. you made me feel safe, even if it was a rushed and intoxicated decision. You made me feel like you cared." She admitted, I could feel my heart pounding in my ears as I tried to stay calm. Even after how I'm caused her issues over and over again, she's still saying I make her feel safe? I would hardly tolerate my own attitude from the last few weeks if it was given back to me.

"So, tell me if I'm wrong so I can save myself some heartbreak; because you're making me feel something I haven't felt in a long time and I don't know if I can stop it." She said, my eyes widening as I felt my whole body heat up as I took in her words.. She, had feelings for me? She actually had feelings for me.. But how did I feel? I felt something towards her but.. would I deserve it after how harshly I had judged her before? I don't want to hurt her like others have done.

"I.. I do care about you." I said softly after a moment, her hands holding mine as I softly traced her fingers. "I'm just.. I don't want to cause you more pain in the end. You've helped me so much and I've been so ungrateful.. I don't know how to do this, and I don't want to cause more damage that I don't know how to undo." I said softly, her eyes softening as she gave a small, sad smile, her arms wrapping around my shoulders slowly.

"There's nothing you can do, that hasn't already been done to me Tobi." She said gently, I could feel myself freeze.

"Nothing?" I whispered, looking at her with concerned edge to my voice as she sadly nodded, leaning back before she slowly took off her shirt. I quickly averted my gaze out of respect making her chuckle, putting a hand on my jaw to turn me back to her. She didn't have a bra on, leaving her chest bare and exposed to me as my mouth watered at the sight of her beautiful form before pausing as I took a longer look, frowning as I noticed the various scars littering her skin. What looked like knife marks on her biceps, looking almost like an animal clawed her but it was too clean; too precise and perfect to be from an animal. She had scars of what looked like bites and small circular scars littering her shoulders, similar but bigger circular scars on her hip and faint burn scars covering small portions of her forearms. So that's why she always wore long sleeves.. The scars were harder to see due to her tattoo's, some of which seemed to be strategically placed to hide some of the harsher scars which made me feel worse knowing I had judged her for these too. Kami, I am such a fucking asshole.

I hesitantly reached out a hand to touch her skin, feeling goosebumps raised over wherever I'd touch as she closed her eyes and sighed. My fingers grazed over the rough skin on her hip, tracing the circular scars.

"What the hell are these from?" I asked, they didn't have Jutsu and I didn't know of a weapon they could have that would leave this mark.

"Guns are his main weapon of choice if he wanted to make a point of anything. One shot and I'd need to go to the hospital.. I was lucky. If he shot any further inwards, I'd never be able to have kids." She said quietly, I felt anger knowing such a vile man could do this to someone he was supposed to love. I've seen my fair share of horrors of life, but any man who'd even raise a hand to a woman were worse then scum; the most vile type of man I've ever seen, but this was on a whole new level and it made my blood boil. "Tobi.. I didn't tell you just to talk about my scars.." She said making me look up at her, she smiled and leaned closer to me.

"Max.. If you were just having a nightmare about him.. I don't know if-" She cut me off with a kiss, pressing her bare chest against my clothed skin, her arms around my neck as she pulled me closer.

"Look, if you don't want to, say that. My nightmare was of being raped, yes, but I'm not thinking of that when I say I want this." She said after pulling back, staring into my eyes as I looked at her still unsure making her sigh, resting her forehead against mine. "I'm thinking of the fact you are the only man who's given me a choice in this. This isn't just about sleeping with someone to forget what Rio did to me. I need it to be you, Tobirama Senju. A man I trust." She said making my breath hitch, the sincerity in her voice and eyes making me chest swell with an unknown emotion. I couldn't help myself from crashing my lips into hers, picking her up and taking her to her room, not before grabbing her shirt and turning the tv off.

Careful, I bite. Chapter 14

Masterlist

It was 2 days later, Monday, when I got home to a bouquet of checkered lilies.. My favourite.. I hesitantly picked up the small bundle of flowers from outside the apartment door, walking in as I observed the flowers. I had a feeling I knew who these were from, and it scared me to know he might be starting his stalking again after I thought I was in the clear. I locked the door behind me, setting the flower on the counter as I took my boots off before going to my room to get some clothes to shower, not wanting to deal with the mystery flowers at the moment. I walked past the living room where Tobirama and Hashirama were before I got a text from an unknown number.

Unknown: Don't take the passports from King.

I ignored the message and took my shower, deciding that I'd deal with it all once I was out. I took my time before getting a knock on the door as I dried myself off.

"Max? Who are these flowers from?" I head Hashirama ask making me sigh, quickly putting some fresh clothes on and opening the door.

"I don't know, they were just at the door when I came home." I said, walking into the living room with him as Tobirama held a note in his hand, a small envelope tied onto the flowers I hadn't noticed before.

"It's from him isn't it?" Tobirama asked, looking up at me from the flowers. "Rio? These are from him, aren't they?" He asked, showing the letter to me as I got closer.

'I know they're your favourite, Ma.

Next time I'll be there to give them to you in person.

Tell Frosty not to get too comfortable.

-R'

I could feel the blood drain from my face as I read the note. He really was starting this back up again.. Hashirama took the note from me and read it, his face turning hard as he realized what this meant; B had explained Rio's stalking of me a few years ago and how relentless he was, mentioning the countless nights I stayed up all night after finding out he was managing to take photo's of me in my sleep. I could feel myself shaking slightly as I leaned on the kitchen isle, Tobirama coming up to me quickly as he noticed I looked faint.

"He's back..." I mumbled, it felt like I was in shock. He was stalking me again, which means he's probably sabotaged the passports to get Tobirama away from me when we went to use them.. Fuck. I felt light headed as I wobbled on my feet slightly, suddenly feeling very dizzy as Tobi lead me to the couch, sitting down beside me and pulling me to him.

"I'm sorry.. This is my fault, I should have listened when you told me to stay in the car.." He said, holding me tight as he ran a hand through my hair soothingly, though it did little to calm me. Hashirama looked at me in pity, knowing I must be having a very hard time with this; I was hospitalized at one point because of how bad my paranoia got from Rio.

"Should we call Bradly?" Hashi asked quietly, I gave a small nod, practically clinging to Tobirama's shirt as I shook, my body feeling cold and hot all at once as I took in shaky breaths. He got up, grabbing my phone and dialing her number, she was at work but at least if we left a message, she'd get it as soon as she could.

"We should get you to your room." Tobirama started, going to move me off when I just held him to me tightly, burying my face in his neck as I shook my head.

"Please don't let me go.." I whispered, my voice barely audible but I knew he heard, he paused and sighed, wrapping his arms tighter around me as he rubbed my back.

"I won't." He muttered, digging his own face into my neck. "I'll kill him if he ever tries to hurt you again." He said quietly making my lip tremble, my arms hugging him tighter as I felt tears in my eyes. Why did he have to come back? Why did I have to help two fictional characters I didn't even know? Just why is this happening to me? 

I could feel my body shake as I felt the damn of my tears break, holding my breath as I tried to choke back the sobs of fear I felt coming on. My body shook heavily as tears soaked Tobirama's shirt and skin, his hold on me tightening as he gently smoothed out my hair, slowly rubbing my back as he mumbled small reassurances into my ear. Hashirama came back in after a few moments and opened his mouth to speak before noticing my shaking form and quiet cries into Tobirama's shoulder. The white haired Senju looked at his brother with a warning look, his main focus being the crying girl in his arms that sought after his comfort, the brunette getting the hint and slowly backing out of the room to leave the two be for the time being.

"Come with us to Canada." He said quietly as my cries got quieter. I sighed shakily and laid a small kiss on his neck.

"No way to get you two there.." I muttered, hearing him sigh. I knew he was trying to figure this out, but I didn't know what to do either.

"I think I've figured that out." Hashirama said as he walked back into the room, he was obviously just around the corner eavesdropping but I didn't care, I looked at him slowly as I sniffled.

"What do you mean?" I asked him, seeing my phone in his hand before I remembered the Unknown number. 

"An Unknown number texted you, I may have asked what they wanted.." Hashirama said sheepishly making Tobirama glare at him.

"You were snooping at a time like this?" He asked with a glare, Hashirama sweatdropped before holding his hands up in defense.

"If I told you it ended up helping, would you be less angry?" He asked making Tobi sigh, looking down at me.

"Just tell us what you found out." He said, his tone calmer as his arms around me shifted to tighten and pull me a little closer.

"So, apparently after Rio found out about you trying to protect Max, he became angry and ordered for new passports that would get you and I arrested at the boarder." He said making me sigh, knowing that was the conclusion I had already come up with.

"This doesn't sound very helpful." Tobirama said making Hashirama put a hand up for him to wait.

"I wasn't done." He said, before continuing where he left off. "She said she could get her hands on the original passports that were currently finished. She said her name was Geneva." He said making my eyes widen.

"Geneva is the girl he met when he finally stopped stalking me.. I've never met her before." I said quietly, he nodded and handed my phone back to me.

"Bradly never picked up but I left a message for her. Geneva said she could meet tomorrow to give us the passports but it would have to be quick." He said making my eyes widen. If she was going behind Rio's back, she's putting herself at a lot of risk for someone she's never met.

"Then we go get them tomorrow and leave as soon as we can." Tobirama said firmly, only for Hashirama to look conflicted for a moment.

"I.. don't know if I want to go.." He said, his brothers brows furrowing.

"Why not?" Tobi asked making his older brother sigh.

"Because I believe Max was right." He said, surprising me and Tobi by the seriousness in his voice. "I believe this is a second chance for us, to live a calmer, better life.. A chance to maybe.. see were my feeling towards Liz go.." He admitted hesitantly, Tobirama was silent for a few moments before he looked at me and sighed.

"I do not wish to leave you in a world still so unknown to us, but I know I cannot force you to come with us." The younger Senju said, his hands taking one of mine in his palm. "If this is a second chance for us all.. I wish to not waste it. I want to stay near the people I care about. Even if it's in a different world then what I know." He sighed, I turned and looked at him curiously. 

"So.. you want to stay?" I asked him hesitantly as he looked at me for a moment, a tiny smile breaking out onto his face as he nodded.

"If you'll let me." He said making me smile, wrapping my arms around his neck tightly.

"Hey, Hashirama?" I called to him, looking at the brunette.

"Yes?" He asked as I smirked.

"Liz has always talked about wanting to move somewhere quieter, BC in the country side would be pretty good for her and her kids, if she wanted." I said, his face lighting up as he realized he might still be able to stay close to his brother and new friends in this world.

"So, do you think it would be possible if.. I stayed here for a while? To see if Liz would come back with me?" He asked making me chuckle and nod.

"I'm sure that can be arranged." I said, before realizing something. "At this point, I'll have to move to BC just to get away from Rio. Which I wouldn't be too mad at honestly." I said, feeling Tobirama's grip tighten slightly at the mans name.

"Better let Alex know." He muttered as I chuckled.

"I better start packing then too." I said making him smile, glad to see we had found a solution so quick and that I was already acting better.

"Need any help?" He asked, resting his chin on my shoulder. Hashirama smiled at us, Tobi hadn't found a wife in his previous life, but it seemed as if now, he may not have to worry about that. He just had to make sure not to fuck this up.

So, I called into work that night. Gave the briefest explanation I could since I knew my regulars would be asking and thankfully my manager, Denise, was understanding, having heard all about Rio when he and I were still together. When B got home that night we explained everything to her and she was reasonably upset but understood why I needed to leave. Thankfully this was the apartment I had moved into just after Rio stopped stalking me the first time, so the landlord is very understanding and we we got it sorted all out tonight for what was going to happen. I had warned her if it were to start up again I would be moving out very quickly for both mine and the other residences safety and thankfully she was actually in a bind with a few waitlisted people she could fill my spot with. I told Alex about the situation and thankfully she also understood and expressed how it wasn't an issue with the change of situation, though she was weary about Hashirama not coming with us immediately until she heard why. She thought it was quite funny actually, though Madara was relieved according to her at hearing the news; until he heard Tobirama was still coming. 

"Why can't he stay there? Your cousin is the only one needing to come here." He argued in the background as Alex was currently with him as always; she sighed and I could see Tobirama rolling his eyes as he leaned back on the couch. We were talking over discord through my laptop so they could actually see most of us, B was off out of view as she felt her part may be ending in this once Hashirama is done here, and I was sat beside Tobi on the couch, Hashi on the other side of him.

"If he wants to go home, we need to help." Alex said making Tobirama pause, I stared at the computer but I could feel his eyes turn to me.

".. I don't want to go home." He said finally making Madara snicker.

"There, see? Problem solved. He can stay in that country with Hashirama." He said, Tobi narrowed his eyes at the screen.

"I am not letting Max go alone when I know you'll be lurking around that house." He said, his hand that laid lightly around my hip tightening as Madara scoffed.

"I am not interested in the woman you currently have hanging off your arm. I have someone I know is better." Madara said in an smug tone, Tobirama only snickered.

"At least I'm not hiding her behind a screen like a coward." He said quietly, I smacked him lightly on the thigh before I heard Madara chuckle.

"If you wanted to see the beauty that's taken me in, you just had to ask. I know she's smitten with me and only me, I'm not concerned with competition of that's what you're implying." He said, you could literally hear the smirk in his voice and it almost made me shiver; what's with so many men in anime having sexy, deep voices? Tobirama's voice was way better though, less sinister undertone I guess.

"Madara, this isn't a competition." Alex said as I nodded in agreement.

"Agreed, this is very childish to be comparing us when we are literally related." I said, only for the camera to turn on and I saw Alex there, trying to almost hid herself as she was laying on Madara's chest. She was clearly on her laptop for once which was kinda surprising since she almost never went on it, a blanket covered the two of them on the couch, though from the hickey's on her neck and the fact Madara was shirtless, you could take a very good guess. Oh, and she was wearing his shirt by the looks of it which I couldn't help but laugh at, putting a hand over my mouth as I tried not to laugh. "Madara, what are you doing to my poor sweet Alex? She was so innocent!" I laughed, B laughing along with me as Alex hid her face in Madara's broad chest.

"I wouldn't exactly call her innocent.. Even before I came along." He said, smirking down at her flustered form; I chuckled.

"Oh, I know. Who do you think helped her pick most of her sexy clothes? Or showed her what fanfiction was and proceeded to fall down the massive internet rabbit hole of fantasy stories and smut with her?" I asked as B laughed loudly. "I'm part of the reason she looks so innocent but is a tiny devil in disguise. I may be a year younger but I've had a lot worse influences in my life then her growing up." I said, taking Tobirama's hand in mine as I traced the lines of his palms.

"I don't know if I should thank you for doing that, or be amused at what Tobirama is in store for if that's true." He said as I shrugged.

"A bit of both might be appropriate." I said making him chuckle, Tobirama was tense. It was clear he didn't like just how casually I was speaking to a man he despised so much.

"I quite like your family so far. All of you have very.. colorful, personalities from what I've seen and heard from Alex." He said making me chuckle.

"Colorful? More like chaotic. It was worse when it was me Alex and all our brothers running around. 5 kids in that house can be a lot to contain." I said making Alex roll her eyes at me.

"More like having You, Eric and Andy in the house was a lot to contain." She said making me chuckle. "Also, Tobirama, I doubt you'd have anything to worry about regarding Madara either way seeing as my parents will be here for the first two weeks you're here. It will not be just us here, which also means you will have to act civil with each other while you are here. It's the holidays and I don't want fighting." She said making me chuckle, I had almost forgotten, my Aunt Louise and Uncle Damien would be there for Christmas and New Years.

"Right! I almost forgot! When do they get there?" I asked her, smiling as I leaned back into Tobi subconsciously.

"As usual, they have yet to text me. However, I bet they'll be here on the 21st without a doubt like always. It's kinda weird how they always managed to get here on the same day every year." She said, she sounded really happy; I could see her smiling and that was making me smile too. She deserves this happiness, really. I'm glad she's getting it.

"I did always think they were a bit of the weird aunt and uncle but I mean, they were better then my parents, that's for sure." I said sighing slightly as I pulled my knees up onto the couch, Tobirama's arm moving to gently trail his fingers up and down the bare skin of my legs, my fuzzy pajama shorts giving him plenty of room for him to touch. 

"I should tell them you're gonna be here! They're in Czech Republic right now, I know you'd love some stuff from there." She said making me shake my head.

"Nope, I don't need fancy stuff from them." I said, turning my nose up at the laptop, crossing my arms making Hashirama and B chuckle, Tobi cracking a tiny smile.

"My parents? Fancy?" Alex laughed. "Are you sure we're talking about the same people?" She joked making me chuckle as well.

"The same people that have managed to tip over every single snow mobile they have ever ridden? Even when they weren't the ones driving it?" I asked, she groaned and laid her head on Madara's chest.

"Don't remind me." She said making me grin. "I've been called about 50 times too many for that from them." She said, this felt nice. Talking with people, leaning up against Tobi as we just relaxed. I couldn't wait to now be spending Christmas with some of my family.
