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."

Careful, I bite. Chapter 19

Masterlist

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."
