Stay.

"No, I don't think so," he steps closer to her finding one of her hands, "I think you need me far more than anyone else right now. What's wrong?"

"Pervert," she spits, "Staying to see me get dressed, huh?" to prove this she leaves his grip and goes to Tenten's open underwear drawer, revealing a pair of black panties and dangling them in the air before slipping them on self-consciously.

Naruto closes the distance and hugs her from behind, "Ne Tayuya... it's alright you know? It's not your fault."

She doesn't say anything.

"I know this is all very bizarre... just try and deal with it alright? When it's all over... maybe we can talk more thoroughly about it, but... just endure it alright? You're strong, just remember that."

He lets her go, stepping back.

For a moment, it seems Tayuya is ignoring him, withdrawing a matching bra and putting it on.

"Get me in the back there, would you?" she says in a monotone.

He nods, fighting with the clasp for a few seconds.

"Thanks."

"It was nothing?"

She snatches his hand without turning around, "No. Not that," she sighs, "Just go alright? I'll... see you later."

Wishing he could stay longer, Naruto wonders if he really has to see Ino now of all times. But then maybe, he realizes, Tayuya just wants to be alone for a while?

"All right. I'll go," he pecks her on the nape of the neck and speedily distances himself from her, his hand landing on the doorknob.
