Healing (Obito Uchiha X Reader)

13. Me

As the sun rose above the horizon, a single beam of light broke through the clouds and shone down upon the earth like a golden spear. It danced and twirled through the morning mist, casting a warm and inviting glow upon everything it touched.

Upon waking on a beautiful spring morning, you shifted to the side, anticipating the warmth of Obito's upper body. However, as you rolled around in the fresh sheets, you became increasingly alert and realized that Obito was nowhere to be found. As it was Sunday, he had no work today and typically slept in on such days. You rose from the bed, stretching your limbs as the birds chirped and the sun timidly filtered through your partially opened curtains.

"Obito..." you called out, your voice still heavy with sleep. You stretched your arms and legs before leaving the warmth of your bed, your delicate feet touching the cold hardwood floor as you made your way towards the kitchen. As you stepped through the doorway, an unpleasant scent filled your nostrils, causing you to wrinkle your nose in confusion.

Looking around, you saw that Obito had made a valiant attempt at baking a cake, but his efforts had clearly fallen short. The once-white countertops were now coated in a thin layer of flour, and the oven door hung open, revealing a charred, misshapen mess that was supposed to be a cake.

You couldn't help but chuckle at the sight of it all. "Obito, what on earth happened here? It looks like the second ninja war!" you asked, trying to stifle your laughter.

Obito, who was standing by the table, turned around at the sound of your voice. His face was smudged with flour, and he looked like he hadn't slept in days. "I thought I'd surprise you with a cake," he said sheepishly, gesturing towards the disaster on the table. "But it didn't quite go as planned."

You walked over to him and wrapped your arms around his waist, burying your face in his chest. "It's the thought that counts," you murmured, planting a gentle kiss on his cheek.

He smiled down at you, his dark eyes sparkling with affection. "I'll make it up to you," he promised.

You grinned back at him. "I'll hold you to that," you said playfully.

"I had actually planned a full-day date, but it seems we'll have to skip breakfast... The second part of our date is a walk in the forest! Get ready, Y/N!" Obito's voice brimmed with enthusiasm and excitement as he spoke.

You needed no further convincing. Smiling, you walked back to your room to choose an outfit for the occasion. After a quick browse, you settled on a simple yet elegant mid-length dress that hugged your figure in all the right places and flowed gracefully at the bottom. Your dress had built-in shorts and pockets, a clear testament to your ninja training and readiness for any situation.

As you emerged from your room, Obito's eyes widened in admiration. "Wow, you look beautiful," he remarked, his gaze lingering on you.

You felt a warm blush creep up your cheeks as you smiled in response. "Thank you," you replied, feeling grateful for the compliment.

Together, you set out on your forest adventure. The sun was shining brightly overhead, casting dappled shadows on the forest floor. The trees rustled gently in the breeze, and the sweet melody of birdsong filled the air.

As you walked deeper into the forest, the sound of running water grew louder and more distinct. Your curiosity piqued, you followed the sound until you arrived at a clearing, and before you stood a magnificent waterfall. The water cascaded down from a towering cliff, sparkling like diamonds in the sunlight. The mist from the waterfall created a cooling breeze, and the air was filled with the gentle sound of falling water.

The waterfall was surrounded by lush greenery, with a carpet of emerald grass that stretched out in front of it. Wildflowers of every color imaginable were in full bloom, adding to the natural beauty of the scene. The sun peeked through the trees, casting dappled light on the waterfall and the surrounding flora. You couldn't help but stand in awe, taking in the breathtaking view before you.
