Chapter 33 - Visit(2)

Naruto: "Lilith!?!" He was shocked.

Lilith: "Hm? Who are you?" She was extremely puzzled that another person knew her name.

Naruto: "It's me, Lilith. Naruto."

Lilith: "Naruto? Naruto?! No way! You don't look like him at all."

Naruto: "That's because I was" He transformed to his original self." transformed."

Lilith: "Woah. That's pretty cool."

Naruto: "I know right. The number of pranks you can do with this technique. It's endless."

Lilith: *Gasp* After the gasp, she started doing an evil giggle that he was familiar with. "Naruto. When you visit next time, transform into me. I want to see if I can prank big brother."

Naruto: "Lilith...you're a genius hehehe." 'I can already see him freak out now.'

Lilith: "Thank you thank you." She laughed and then she looked at Naruto with a questioning smile. "In all seriousness, mind telling me what's going on? How am I here?"

Naruto: "Honestly, I have no idea. I blinked and then you were here. I'm not complaining though. Glad you're here." said Naruto as he transformed back to his ȧduŀt self. "Why don't you go take a seat over there. I made lunch."

Lilith: "Lunch? Is that one of the times when mortals consume to fulfill their bodily needs?"

Naruto: "Yeah. I don't how I feel about you saying it like that."

Lilith: "Say what like what?" She tilted her head.

Naruto: "Nothing." He shrugged. 'Why is she so freaking cute!?' "Why don't you take some chicken? I made too many."

Lilith: "Okay." she said before taking a fried chicken. She then started to stare at Naruto to which Naruto could not help but feel a little uncomfortable.

Naruto: "Yes Lilith?"

Lilith: "How do you eat this?"

Naruto: "Oh. You never ate fried chicken?"

Lilith: "I never ate period." She smiled.

Naruto: "Oh. Right. You're not human. You're lightning. Keep forgetting that. Well, you grab on to this bottom part right here. Where the bone is." He started to guide her on how to eat fried chicken. Once she learned how to do it, the rest came naturally. Taking her first bite of food, her taste buds truly activated for the first time. Different flavors all clashing and mixing in her mouth as the crispiness and the tenderness gave off a well-balanced texture. She started eating and she did not stop at all.

Seeing this, Naruto could not help but chuckle a bit. Ten minutes later, he saw honey coat her lips and Naruto could've sworn that he felt hot for a second. Deciding to not explore it, he stared at the now embarrassed Lilith who kept saying that somebody possessed her and that she never ate this way usually. Naruto started laughing mentally at her obvious lies but in reality, he got a napkin and cleaned her mouth for her.

Lilith didn't know what to say or think at the moment. Her friend gave her really good food and was cleaning her mouth for her. She could feel the gentleness from the way he used the napkin to help. Not to mention, his ȧduŀt form was quite a hunk. She wondered if he'll grow to look like that but even better. Immediately after that thought passed her mind, she violently shook her head and tried to calm herself down.

Lilith: 'What am I thinking about? What's wrong with me today?'

Naruto: "You okay?"

Lilith: "Yeah I'm good." She smiled. Lilith can feel the completely relaxed guard of Naruto that she never thought would be put down. When she reflected their first meeting, she remembered how stiff Naruto was and how warily he was staring at her but now, there was none of that there. No fear. No hatred. Nothing but trust and love. That was what she felt from him.

Naruto: "Hey I have a good idea. Why don't you stay over tonight?"

Lilith: "Stay over?"

Naruto: "Yeah. I just got this new house and there are many rooms. Take one of them. Treat this place as your second home."

Lilith: "Really?"

Naruto: "Yeah. I would love to have company."

Lilith: "Sure then. I would love to stay here but...what if I go back?"

Naruto: "Don't worry about it. I can still go to you."

Lilith: "Okay. So uh, what do you want to do now?"

Naruto: "Well, we have many choices and I have most of them planned out though. Do you trust me enough to take you out for one of the best days you will ever have?"

Lilith: "Of course."

Naruto: "Then let's go." He extended his hand to her and she took it without even hesitating. Naruto himself doesn't know why he grew courageous all of a sudden and Lilith doesn't know why she immediately took his hand. She chalked it up to a friend thing.

As they headed out, they garnered a lot of attention. Females would stare at him and males had their eyes glued to Lilith. Hating the fact that Lilith was getting looks with negative emotions behind it, he immediately swept her off her feet and carried her princess style to the festival that he wanted to go to today.

Lilith was minding her own business and ignored every person she saw. She saw the stares and were completely immune to it but she was interested in how far humanity has advanced so she looked around quite a bit. All of a sudden, she couldn't feel the ground anymore and she was on Naruto's arms, flying in the air. She didn't even know what was happening but she didn't question it. Although she subconsciously moved her body closer to Naruto.

Once they arrived at the festival, he bought 2 masks. Conveniently, there a fox mask for Naruto and he got a panda mask for Lilith that covered them perfectly. Still holding hands, they went to each stall and had something to eat or participated in some activity. Everyone thought that these oddly dressed foreigners were quite the lovebirds and they all wished them a happy future together mentally.

Once they hit most of the stalls, they heard a voice saying it is time for the main event. Naruto, knowing what the main event is, rushed to his secret spot. Taking out a blanket from the inventory discreetly, he laid it down on the grass and asked Lilith to sit with him. She didn't question where the blanket came from but she did ask what was happening.

Lilith: "I don't see anything besides the stars." She looked around at the sky.

Naruto: "Don't worry. You'll see it in a minute." They were in an isolated spot and the best part of it was that they could watch it without their masks. In a few seconds, fireworks started to appear. Lilith's mouth was open at this spectacular sight while Naruto was also watching the fireworks. Turning to see Lilith's reaction, he saw a dazed look on her face and had a thought.

Naruto: 'Compared to fireworks, Lilith is still more beautiful...' He stared at for a second before realizing what he just did and looked up.
