Playing the Bamboo Flute

[Santomoro Purotekuta- Mei]

he saw her crying and placed his hand on her cheek he used his thumb to whipe away the tears he smiled and said "dont cry shi-chan he kissed a stray tear and kissed her lips ever so lightly and then held her against his chest saying "shi if this makes you happy then it will be this way as long as you like"

[Shizuke Tsukiyama]

I looked up at him and nodded.
"This is what makes me happy." I said. I pulled myself away and took the hand on his casted arm. I gently pulled him over and pulled out the white box I was going to use to put all the things he had given me in them. I jumped up on my bed and pulled down all the little things he had given me. I set them one by one in the box, putting the two little dolls in first and then the flute and the pictures. I slipped the necklace he had given me earlier off and put it in there. I put the other little gifts he had given me in there, and I put the little clip in there too. The only things I needed were the rose from the garden, the piece from his shirt, and a lock of hair. I noticed the cherrry blossom chain he had made and put it in there too, being very gently. I quickly cut a piece of his torn shirt and put it in the box. I looked up at him.

[Santomoro Purotekuta- Mei]

He look and saw everything in the box and said "you have preety much everything except a peice of my hair in there"he smiled a saw she had alot of the stuff he had given her he looked at her and said "do you need a lock of my hair"he asked and said "if you do I will give you some"

[Shizuke Tsukiyama]

I nodded. I stood up and took to my kunai with me. I leaned on him a bit so I kept my balance. I cut off a lock of his hair and pulled out a bit of red thread from my pocket. I tied it around the lock of hair, cut it, and put it in the box. I put the lid on and put it up on the shelf.
"There." I said quietly. I turned to look at him.
"Now I won't loose anything." I said. I was thinking, way in the back of my mind, about a bit of his blood, but that wouldn't be nice. I shook my head to get rid of the though.

[Santomoro Purotekuta- Mei]

Santo took a needle and poked it a bit he squezzed a srop of blood and put it on the hair and said "there now you have a drop of my blood"as soon as the blood feel the cut healed and looked the skin was comletely covered"he looked at shizuke and said "is there anything else you want shi-chan"

[Shizuke Tsukiyama]

I stared at him, I knew exactly what I wanted in there, him. I gazed into his eyes, only if I could put those in there too, oh then I would never forget that gaze when we were older. I didn't want to stick him the box though, nor did I want to stick his eyes in the box, he wouldn't be able to see! I shook my head.
"No, nothing else." I said.
"Nothing that I could fit at least, or that wouldn't have an injury to do with it." I said. I smiled at him.

[Santomoro Purotekuta- Mei]

he smiled and said "dont forget the cloth I gave you they have a image of my eyes the gaze and everything you will have have me looking at you"he smiled and laid his head on her bed and said "your bed is soft"he smiled as he closed his eyes his shirt still off he placed his hands behind his head

[Shizuke Tsukiyama]

I suddenly remembered about the cloth. I quickly pulled it out and took the box down. I opened the lid and put it in quickly. I shut the lid carefully and slowly, almost like it was glass. I look down at him and smiled.
"Of course my bed is soft." I said.
"I'm a girl, most of the things I have are soft, my cushion, the one I sit on downstairs usually, it's full of the same material my bed has, so it's as equally soft." I said. I laid down on my stomach to look at him.

[Santomoro Purotekuta- Mei]

Santo saw her laying down he closed his eyes and strecthed his arm and rubbed her back saying "well my bed is fairly soft it is still relativly new so yea I still have to get use to it I bought a bigger one when I came back to konaha because my bed was way to small"he looked at shizuke smiling

[Shizuke Tsukiyama]

"I always curl my feet up so I usually keep my beds for a few years or so." I said.
"I think I've had 3 beds in 13 years, my crib when I was a baby, and then a bigger bed for when I was a toddler until I was like 7 and then this bed." I said. I smiled back at him.
"I love this bed, but sometimes I pull out a futon and sleep on the floor just because I can." I laughed.
"A futon is just as comfortable as a normal bed, sometimes it's so more comfortable."

[Santomoro Purotekuta- Mei]

Santo smiled saying "I have had 3 beds my crib which I had till I was two then the one I had till I was 12 then I bought a new onbe which im still breaking in but I usally just fall asleep on the floor or in a tree"he smiled he wasnt ever very squished just when he could no longer lay without falling off it was time for a new bed

[Shizuke Tsukiyama]

"You actually can fall asleep just on the floor or up in a tree?" I asked, chuckling.
"I only nap in the big cherry tree, but I rarely ever do that because I'm afraid that I'll fall out and break something." I felt my cheeks tinge pink.
"Don't you have any futons? Or at least a bunch of cushions you can sleep on at your home? The floor can't be that comfortable with nothing soft and fluffy to sleep on." I said. I hated sleeping on the cold hard floor, if I fell off my bed i usually took my blanket with me.

[Santomoro Purotekuta- Mei]

Santo nodded saying "I do but I can sleep on anything or in anything without fear"he smiled he rarely feel and when he did he took everything with him the blankets and sheets"I have a futon in one of the rooms and there are mats everywhere but I somtimes just sleep on the floor itself I find it comfertable"

[Shizuke Tsukiyama]

"You find the hard floor comfortable?" I asked. I snuggled into my covers on my bed.
"I hate sleeping on just the floor, I find it to cold and hard, I feel like I'm sleeping on a rock." I said. I looked at him and crawled over so I was snuggled up to him.
"But I know something even better than a futon or a comfy bed." I said. This time I wasn't going to tell, unless he asked what it was. I knew what was more comfortable than a futon or a bed, it was Santo-kun.

[Santomoro Purotekuta- Mei]

Santo quircked and asked "what si more comfertable then that"he looked at her as she came closer and thought 'what could it be 'he was curious sadly he couldnt help himself and watched shizuke curiously he wondered what she was refffering to wasd it himself or was it a object he wasnt sure what to do or what to say
