zabuza picked her up. ann rested her head on his shoulder as he sat down on the bed
zabuza~you can stop worrying about him ann. not like he'll barge in here trying to find you incase you're gonna do something stupid
ann~rrrmmm....i just...don't want to see him...for a different reason now...
zabuza~hm? what reason?
ann~rrrmmm...said that there was nothing that could be done to bring you back...now you're here...and i blamed kakashi...i...i...
zabuza~scrared that he might not forgive you for saying those things to him?
she nodded
zabuza~*sigh* just sleep some more. you'll feel better later...
ann~ok...
she sighed then closed her eyes waiting for sleep. after a few minutes, zabuza adjusted her a little on his lap
zabuza~*sigh*what will i do with you ann?
he sighed again then kissed her head before tapping the window
zabuza~can come in now kakahsi. she's asleep
he opened the window letting kakashi climb through. he sat next to zabuza and rubbed ann's cheek
kakashi~so...what'd she say?
zabuza~i just know she's scared to face you
kakashi~why?
zabuza~she regrets what she said to you
kakashi~she does? a little ironic...when you think about it...so..when are yuo gonna hurt me for killing haku?
zabuza~later...just a truce for now since all we care about is ann right?
kakashi~yeah...what would she do if she woke right now?
zabuza~i really don't want to know. i've seen her upset before and right now it's too much
kakashi~i see...well i should get my a** outa here before that happens huh?
zabuza just nodded. kakashi left

ann~zabuza...
zabuza~yeah kid?
ann~l-let go...
she got off him and stumbled upstairs for the bathroom
zabuza~*sigh*i need help...ann i don't want you being like this...
ann soon came back down, but after taking a few steps from the stairs she collapsed
zabuza~ann? you should use the crutch i saw up there
ann~n-no...i'm fine uncle...i just need to...
zabuza~ann please, for once don't be stuborn and just listen. i don't want you getting hurt
he helped her up
zabuza~now you're the one hurting me like i hurt you...i'm sorry kid...really i am...
she wrapped her arms around him
ann~i'm sorry...but...it's just been nearly a decade...i don't want to lose you...i could never let you go even if i tried...
zabuza~yeah ann...i know...and there's still another one i can't let go...

zabuza~you just sit, i'll see what i can do
ann~just don't burn anything...
zabuza~take out then?
ann~ok. phone's over there, to the side of the fridge
zabuza found it and handed it to ann
zabuza~you have to make the call. i can't, they'll know something's up
ann nodded and called a place. after making the order she hung up
ann~in half an hour...but it would have been less...if i did it...
zabuza~like ten minutes including the cook time?
she nodded then rested her head against him

zabuza~hey ann...it's them. come on you should answer it
he helped her up then over to the door. he opened it backing up to the wall so only ann would be seen
ann~hey. thank you
she handed him the money and took the box
deliverer~hehe no need for the tip
ann~take it. go ahead
deliverer~just get well soon
ann smiled as he left. zabuza closed the door. he picked up ann taking the food from her and went back to the kitchen
zabuza~want me to feed you?
ann~yeah...if you will?
zabuza~can you chew?
she shook her head. zabuza nodded at her and chewed some before passing it to her
zabuza~once you don't want any more, time for a bath ok?
ann~k...
a tear ran down her face. zabuza wiped it away
zabuza~keep yourself together for now. can cry later
she nodded and wiped her eyes against him
