Air Drill Practice (Privite, Invite only)

Mezurashii bid Itami goodnight happily, she didn't really mind about the dumplings. She just wanted for the white haired boy to feel welcome, she paused in her washing and rushed to the hallway.

"Don't go on the roof, it's booby-trapped!" she called out before finishing the dishes and climbing up the stairs, papa was still busy eating and had promised to clean his mess so she was alright with it.

Looking at the guest room she inwardly wondered if she should take a peek, just to make sure he was alright. Shaking her head she smiled to herself, Itami can take care of himself, so she continued on two doors down and entered her room.

Quickly changing into her sleeping clothes, a baggy shirt and sleeping pants she snuggled under the covers and quickly fell asleep. Happy at how well the day turned out.

Itami lay in his bed, thinking. He heard Mezurashii's yell before, about the roof. He thought it was quite a good idea to secure the house like that. He decided he'll do that as well. He was the only one to ever go up on the roof anyway and he would remember where the traps were so he would still be able to go on it without getting hurt.
He sank deeper into the soft sheets, sighing. He heard light footsteps outside and smiled. It was probably Mez, going to her room or the bathroom.
His eyes slowly closed and he drifted into dreamland, sleeping peacefully and soundly, better than he slept at home lately.

[So, do you want to make this the end or finish the Air Drill jutsu on this on this topic?]

[I wouldn't mind doing the jutsu, but whatever you decide is fine with me :)]

[okay! I'll continue this because this is fun! ^_^]

Mezurashii rose with the sun and stretched, sighing happily at the 'pop' sound as her spine cracked and released the pressure. She grabbed her clothes and went to the shower, which was the door between her and Itami.

Upon entering she shut the door and undressed quickly before stepping into the shower, running the water she cleaned herself with scentless soap. Exiting she wrapped herself with a large towel and began the evil process of brushing her hair, granted it was annoying to take care of sometimes but she liked her long hair.

She sighed happily and put the brush down and begun to dress in a relaxed manner, thinking of what she could cook for breakfast. Hmm... Maybe some french toast with a side of scrambled eggs, or maybe would some bacon and eggs do fine?

Upon opening his eyes Itami was greeted with the view of beautiful morning sun rays peeking through the window. He was a little disoriented, not recognizing the room right that second but soon the memory flashed by his mind and he relaxed again, smiling.
He didn't get up instantly, enjoying instead the quiet and peacefulness that he never got to experience when he woke up in his own bed. He just lay on the bed and thought about things, wondering what the day ahead will bring.
He couldn't wait to try Mez's jutsu again and he really hoped it would work this time and nobody will get hurt.

A little while later, he slowly got up and put on his shirt. His long black pants were already on as he slept in them. Barefoot, he headed for the bathroom to wash up. He opened the door, only to be suprised by Mezurashii, combing her hair. He quickly apologized and closed the door again, waiting outside.

His awkwardness did it again. He didn't even think to knock, being so used to an empty bathroom all the time, since his father at home had his own downstairs. He mentally scolded himself and hoped Mezurashii wasn't mad.
He leaned on the wall and slowly slid down so he was sitting against it.

Mezurashii stared at the door for a long time. Well, if that wasn't a wake-me-up then she didn't know what was.

Dressing quickly she tied her hair in it's usual style and exited, she smiled kindly at Itami and crouched down.

"Sorry, that was my fault. I'm so used to having the bathroom to myself this early I don' lock it" she stood and patted his shoulder in a comforting manner.

"Don't worry about it, it's not like you saw much" she smiled at him happily, though a minute blush still coated her cheeks.

"I'll make breakfast" she walked down the hall and paused at the stair, putting her hands together in the ram seal there was a loud bang in her papa's room as he cried out in panic.

"I'm up! I'm up!" he called out hurriedly. She laughed a little before turning to Itami once more.

"Don't worry so much, at least about me and papa" she said kindly, warmth filled her eyes for a short moment before she trotted down to make breakfast.

She fixed omelets, fried rice, sausages, bacon, variety of eggs a bowl of fruit and some sliced vegetables like carrot. She smiled at the arrangement, she grabbed some cups and put them by the orange and apple juice.

She didn't bother to call out cause the smell of the food had wafted through the house, she began to do some light cleaning while she waited.

Leaning against the wall, Itami put his face in his hands. He was such an idiot. Things like that always happened to him, he never failed to put himself into embarrasing situations. As Mezurashii came out of the bathroom, he apologized again but she just leaned down and patted him on the shoulder. It was amazing how well she tolerated Itami's weirdness and awkwardness. Itami wasn't used to that.

He laughed nervously at her last comment and then stood up. He entered the bathroom and made sure to lock the door to avoid any possible mishaps in the future. He wasn't sure if he was allowed to use the shower again but since he used it in the evening he didn't really need one again. He simply washed his face and his teeth. Not bothering to comb his hair, he only ran his hand through it to untangle the knots, and then used the bathroom.

After washing his hands, he left the bathroom to put on the rest of his clothes. He opened the window in the guestroom to let some fresh air in. It was slightly cold so he put on his light jacket and then walked to the kitchen, the gorgous smell of food filling his nostrils.
He felt like on a holiday, when others cooked for him and he didn't have a care in the world safe for little things everyone fretted over once in a while.

Mezurashii was putting cups on the table and he sat down, smiling. "Wow Mez, you sure are an awesome hostess."
Whatever she cooked, he liked so far. "If you ever get tired of being a ninja, you could become a cheff or an owner of a hotel or something." he said and grinned at her.

Mezurashii blushed a little at the white haired boys compliment, she wasn't used to compliments. She laughed happily at Itami's compliment about becoming a chef.

"No way, I've seen how stressful that life can be, I would probably end up becoming an academy teacher. That would truly be something worthwhile" she smiled to herself before a loud tumbling of the stairs was heard. After a few moments papa appeared, looking sleepy.

"Morning papa" the redhead waved happily before sitting down and gesturing for them both to join her.

"Okay, so after breakfast we can try that jutsu again, and this time we'll nail it!" she grinned excitedly at Itami before passing the fried rice over to her papa, who quickly took large scoops. At the fourth one Mezurashii slapped his hand with her chopsticks and scolded him.

"Don't be so greedy, you ate all the dumplings last night" she scowled playfully at her papa and he raised his hands, still sleepy and clearly unable to defend himself. She smiled at him before digging into her own food.

Itami laughed and replied: "Well, nothing is as stressful as being a ninja, you can be sure of that."
He leaned over the table and took various foods, adding them all to his plate. He was quite hungry, even though they had a big dinner. He added an extra big helping of fried rice - it was his favourite side dish.
"But I think it's worth it, for all the adventures and experience you get, when you go on missions and such." he said.
Smiling, Itami put the rice bowl back on the table. Just then, Mezurashii's father came down the stairs and Itami, still a bit reserved around him, greeted him with a more subtle and quieter voice then he used with Mez just a second ago. Katsu seemed like a funny person but he was still a bit intimidating and he always did or said something unexpected, so Itami was weary around him.
He ate in sudden silence, observing the playful exchange of words between Mezurashii and her father.
