You Kept Your Promise (Sequel to Jade And Onyx)

Disclaimer: I don't own it.

So college started and I'm moved in,,,,, it's wild living on campus. 10/10 would recommend so far.

UPDATE: Also I heard there's a hurricane coming this week so that's wild.

UPDATE: we got evacuated for a week but didn't get shit.

"I hope you know that you're a traitor, Hyuga," I mumbled after coming back from lunch.

He glanced down at me and sighed. "You know it was funny the first two times but now it's just getting old."

"Funny?!" I stomped. "You didn't even laugh!"

"He smirked," Sasuke pointed out to me.

"Oh, of course you'd be able to tell. Both of you have the emotional range of a brick," Naruto laughed at his own joke which brought everyone except the bricks to laugh. "Your default emotion is hn."

"Hn," they said simultaneously and immediately glared at Naruto.

"If they're trying to disprove his point, their method isn't working," Tenten whispered to Hinata and I.

By the end of the day, I was slightly repulsed as I entered my car to go home.

Sure, being a chief medical examiner for a forensics lab was the dream, but man...I don't know about the corpse stuff. It's definitely unsettling to dissect a rotting human being.

Is it fun cutting into a decaying human body? Absolutely not. The stench itself is extremely off-putting; we're lucky if we get fresh ones — that sounded very creepy and ominous. It is, however, fun to figure out the cause of their death by looking at the clues their bodies have left behind.

I probably should've majored in regular medicine, at least the people would be alive.

Oh well, I'm sure I'll get used to it eventually. For what it's worth, I did have fun learning under Tsunade for the first day. She's a bit of an asshole at first, but you learn to love it. Besides, her other assistant, Shizune said that it gets better when she shows up to work tipsy on sake.

Which leads me to the question, how has she not gotten caught and fired?

Oh well, Tsunade said if she's ever tipsy and can't work, it's a learning experience for us...which I mean, yeah technically, but still. At least I have Shizune to guide me when that happens.

I was checking my mirrors and getting ready to back out of my parking spot when a tap on my window startled me. I jumped, narrowed my eyes at the culprit, and pressed the button to roll down my window.

"I could've died."

He shrugged indifferently.

"I wanted to tell you something important," Sasuke told me as he stuck his head in the window to feel the hot air from the vents.

"Before you tell me, you know you could just..." I looked at his stupidly perfect profile while he inched his face closer to the air vent to the left of the steering wheel. "...get in through the passenger's side and sit."

"No, it won't take long," he turned his head slightly to look at me. "I wanted to tell you that I'm going to tell my fiancée the deal is off on Sunday."

Man this must look really weird to someone walking by...

"Really?" I asked. "Are you nervous?"
