Chapitre 8: Chapter 8
They start with 'light' stretching, in which he finally learns how to properly stretch. It's hell, though. They start by doing a series of numbers of exercises in which he could only do the first two. Gai could do the most, reaching the seventh exercise.
"Now it's time to do a couple of laps around this training ground. Do as many as you can." Well, at least this exercise she has done twice a day for almost nine months. She should do better than most. "As fast as you can."
Shit.
What follows is torture.
Friendships are made though.
"I—I can do it!" shouts Obito as he tries his fifteenth lap. Yuki is near him, lightly panting and in a perfect position to see him trip and fall. "No, no. I can do one more!" he says, trying to stand up but his legs are trembling.
It would be more tragic if there was some background music. And if it was in slow motion, too.
Anyway, he can feel his determination vibes going on from his position. So, with a sigh, he stops beside him, grabs his extended, dramatic arm position, and lifts him.
He's gasping for breath but once again on his feet. He's trying to say 'thank you' she can guess it from his little intake of breath.
She can't see him and that's a shame, she guesses his face must have been hilarious.
"You're welcome, Obito-kun!"
"H-Hey, y-you said… agh! M—My name!" he says between gasps.
Oh, right. Here calling people by their name is a big no-no if you haven't been told so. Her lack of interaction with people finally affected her, as her mom once told her.
"Sorry, Uchiha-san!"
"No, no!" He takes a big deep breath. "I liked it!"
… And that shout was enough to attract the attention of everyone.
He left him behind but even from here she can feel his embarrassment reaching her.
What a cute kid.
In the end, she can do 21 laps.
The teacher has to stop Gai and Kakashi from continuing as they are the last standing and they need to move on.
Then they are told to do push-ups until their arms can hold them anymore. Here, he's able to do more as he's gained strength in her arms thanks to doing her ritual swings with that heavy bamboo stick. Next, when they can't feel their arms and their legs have regained some life, they are told to do sit-ups.
The last thing they do is stretch. This time it is light, though. Which is nice.
When they return to their classroom for the lunch break, he's surprised to sense something else on top of his desk. Actually, everyone's desks. From the feel of it, he can guess it's their books.
"Hey, wanna have lunch with us?" Obito's voice reaches him. He looks up and yeah, he senses him approaching from his place, two seats in front of his own. Another person is coming with him. He can't distinguish children's gender… or real girls, actually. He has improved her senses and no longer sees blobs, but he still can't quite differentiate when he can't 'see' their forms because of the clothing.
So unless someone is walking with their dicks or tits out, he has trouble knowing who is male or female. In this world, where everyone can modify their voice with a simple jutsu, that doesn't help either.
"Oh, hello. Obito-kun, right?"
He can feel him beam at hearing someone say his name. It's quite a sight (ha!). "Yes, that's me. You are Soma-kun, right?"
"Please call me Yuki. We're the same age, after all."
"Sure!" he freaking chirps. He kind of wishes to have a camera to blackmail this future edge lord.
Yuki then turns his head slightly to the side where the other person is. "Hello, I believe we haven't been introduced before."
"Um! My name's Nohara Rin. You can call me Rin, though."
He smiles, as he had guessed before it is Rin. He wasn't sure if Obito had already formed a friendship with her or not.
"Call me Yuki, too," he says. He's going to motion for them to go eat outside before he senses something quickly moving in front of his face. It takes him a second to sense the thing connected to Obito's body. Oh, it's his arm.
"Huh. So you really can't see."
"Obito-kun!" Rin exclaims, jabbing gently at his side. "That's rude."
"Oh. Uh. Sorry, sorry! I was just curious!"
He sounds honestly chastised, clearly expecting a negative reaction. Instead, Yuki laughs. "Don't worry, Obito-kun. I'm not mad. It's been a while since someone has treated me this forward. It feels nice."
"Oh…"
"Still, it was rude," Rin says with her arms crossed from what he can sense.
"It was, but I know he didn't mean anything by doing it, so I don't mind."
"You're nice," Obito blurts out, clearly not expecting the words that come out of his mouth. "Uh…"
"Thank you for the compliment," he says with a smile. "Now, would you like to eat with me outside?"
"Sure!" both voices say at the same time. Then they go for their bentos and they meet under the door of the classroom.
"So…" Rin starts nervously as they look for an empty spot. Well, more like Rin and Obito look for a place to sit and eat. "You said you knew how Obito-kun didn't mean what he said. How did you know?"
Her tone is one of pure curiosity, so he answers easily enough, "One can learn a lot by the tone of their voices, you know."
"Oh."
