16 ... My Heart once beat for you

Tenshi yawned, spreading his wings wide as he sat up in his bed. There was movement next to him and he looked at Aizami, who pouted, reaching for him.

Recently, she had been sneaking out at night and coming to sleep with him before going back in the morning when he got up.

The first time she snuck in she saw everything and he was dumbfounded.

She really thought he was an angel!

He didn't know what to say, he was!

Then she stayed for the night and they talked for the whole time.

Tenshi was surprised that she wasn't scared or disgusted or anything. She really liked his wings, constantly touching them. It made him slightly happy, although a little nauseous.

But he managed to stomach it.

It seemed he was getting a bit better in this area.

In short, that was 2 years ago, since then she would sneak in every now and then.

They even made love, so to speak…

Although, Aizami seemed to want to have a baby and Tenshi wasn't really ready for that sort of thing. They had a little argument over it before Aizami decided to wait. However, they still slept together frequently.

Tenshi woke her up and she smiled at him, stretching her body gracefully. He gently touched her skin with his fingertips, saying softly, "Goodmorning, Aizami…" Aizami smiled sweetly and stretched out her arms, pouting cutely.

Tenshi smiled happily, pulling her to him as she hugged his back, kissing his lips. The separated and she leaned on his chest, snorting gently, "Morning~" Tenshi picked her up and glided across the room, gently touching his feet down on the ground as she wrapped her arms around his neck, leaning on him.

Tenshi was 21 this year while Aizami was 19. Though it was a bit early to live together based on Tenshi's previous life, but Aizami didn't seem to care, nor even have the same thoughts at all.

Actually, in this world even 16 year olds could have children and nobody would bat an eye!

This was incomprehensible for Tenshi, he even pressed her to wait until she was 18 until they had their first time. This was the basic requirement.

As a result, 12:01 am on her birthday she burst in and pushed him down.

Tenshi just let it happen, he had been holding back anyway…

At any rate, they were quite happy.

Aizami was working as a waitress at the cafe, bringing coffee to customers, she even learned how to make it from Tenshi. Sometimes she would work, so he could rest and vice versa.

Recently, the Uchiha Clan had been having more clan meetings and Aizami hadn't told anyone that she had been sneaking out, so she had to attend.

She would come back and complain to Tenshi about everyone. Tenshi didn't mind and simply listened to her.

The result of their relationship, set back the Cafe by quite a bit…

It was exactly the same as before, there were no improvements. No takeout bottles, no pastries, no expansion, no terrasse, nothing.

He only went on dates and trained with Kakashi, the rest was non-existent.

However, Tenshi didn't mind this at all. He was very satisfied with his life at the moment.

In Kakashi's own words he reached Jonin level strength.

That was a joyful day.

Today, Tenshi was taking care of the cafe alone, thinking of even hiring someone to do everything so he could just relax with Aizami. If things continued the way they would, she would probably be pregnant in the near future. Then he would have his hands full with kids, how could he worry about the cafe?

Tenshi smiled to himself as he cleaned the photo of his mother, saying softly, "I think you would like her, she's cute and kind. You never really had anything against anyone, you know she's an Uchiha but I'm sure you wouldn't mind… She asks about you a lot, I think she would've wanted to meet you… Well, soon enough anyway."

He smiled gently before wiping down the picture of Shisui on the wall.

A year ago, the news came that Shisui had passed away, much to everyone's sadness.

He was a regular at the cafe, even Guy had a friendship with him.

The picture on the wall was Kakashi, Shisui, Guy, and himself all posing with a thumbs up like Guy.

Tenshi wiped down the photo and smiled gently before moving on.

As he was cleaning, he noticed a little guy looking in from the window, very aggrieved.

Tenshi looked at him and smiled gently, "Are you back again?" the little boy looked left and right before walking inside, saying loudly "Uncle Lady! Do you have any more of that Hot Chocolate stuff? It was so good!"

Tenshi leaned on the counter and hung a jar of deep brown, shimmering Hot Chocolate from his finger, swinging it back and forth as he smiled gently, "I might… But my garbage bin is so full…" The kid with spiky yellow hair waved his fists and grinned, "Just garbage?! No problem! Call me Garbage Boy Naruto! Believe it!"

Naruto picked up the garbage and ran out of the cafe before coming back with an empty trash can just a minute later.

Tenshi chuckled softly and asked "You didn't put it in the neighbor's bin again, did you?" Naruto made a 'pffft' sound before looking shifty, "O-Of course not!" Tenshi pursed his lips and tossed the jar of Hot Chocolate to him.

Naruto caught the jar with sparkling eyes, smiling happily, he looked up and grinned, "Thanks, Uncle Lady! You're A-OK! Hahaha!" he jumped on a chair and held the jar with both hands, unscrewing the lid before drinking from it.

His eyes squinted happily and he exhaled, "Ahhhh~"

Tenshi smiled gently before sitting down and relaxing.

Naruto started walking around here a few weeks ago, all the other villagers seemed to hate him deeply. As though Naruto killed their families or something! Apparently, there was a rumor that Naruto was the Demon Nine Tailed Fox that terrorized the Village a long time ago.

Tenshi hadn't read Naruto but he knew for a fact that this wasn't true… There were too many Sad Edits of Naruto swinging on a swing alone. How could such a sad boy be a giant fox Demon?

Plus, Tenshi had the spirit of never judging someone by the way they look or what others said to him. This was an important lesson from his mother after all. Had to be taken very seriously.

So he was just about the only person in the entire village that was kind to Naruto.

Aizami was indifferent which made Tenshi a bit sad. But he couldn't force her to like him. After all, in Aizami's view whether or not Naruto was the Fox, the Fox was responsible for the state of her clan! So she didn't hate Naruto, but she didn't like him, she just ignored him like he didn't exist.

Depending on who you asked, this was either much worse or better.

Tenshi didn't really know, but Naruto was kind enough, he felt bad that people treated him like this.

The day came and went, Aizami came to his house at night and complained while they cuddled. Tenshi listened to her with a slight smile, comforting her and saying a few words in between.

A few days later

Tenshi was tending to the coffee plant, it had been harvested 4 times already and the beans he roasted himself were always better than the ones from the system, not to mention, he took great care of the plant. It was extremely healthy!

Tenshi sprayed the plant with a spray bottle full of Chakra infused water, touching the white flower pods gently, making sure that they were growing correctly. Just as he was tending to the plant, a feminine voice asked, "Mister, what type of flowers are these?"

Tenshi was stunned and turned to see a cute little girl with a long blonde ponytail and solid turquoise eyes. He smiled gently and explained "It's not a flower, it's a plant that grows Coffee fruit." he waved her over and she trotted over curiously.

Tenshi guided her hand to the flower pods, explaining gently "These little white flowers will turn into fruit, so they look beautiful now, however they have hidden value other than beauty." the little girl didn't understand at all, just saying "Wow! They're fruits!"

Tenshi pursed his lips and nodded, "Mhm." the little girl sighed, "But they're so pretty! What a shame." Tenshi picked a single white coffee flower from a pod and placed it in her hand, smiling gently "Here you go."

The little girl's eyes lit up and she smiled happily, "Thank you, mister!" Tenshi snorted gently and smiled, "You're welcome." before getting up and walking away behind the counter.

The Little girl smiled happily and walked out of the cafe, twirling the flower in her hands, humming to herself happily.

Later that same day…

Tenshi was waiting outside of the cafe. Aizami said that she would come after he closed to go for dinner.

However, it was getting later and later but she still wasn't here…

Tenshi touched his chin worriedly, hoping that she wasn't caught. Last time she was caught she had to sneak out and break into his house! Fortunately, he set up some security precautions now…

That way nobody else would accidentally catch a glimpse of his wings and eyes.

He waited around in front of the cafe for another hour before sighing to himself. Hopefully she could sneak out tonight, he was worried. He shook his head and turned around, walking away before he heard a weak voice, "T-Tenshi…"

Tenshi froze up and turned around quickly, running over to see Aizami laying on the ground, bleeding from severe wounds all over her body! He froze in disbelief, holding her in his arms as she coughed up blood, looking at him lovingly, "So-Sorry I'm late…"

Tenshi cried, "Wha-" he caught himself and asked softly "What happened to you…" She looked down and smiled gently, "We were attacked, w-whole clan wiped out." she stopped speaking after that before smiling again, "I… I'm sorry… We w-won't be going for b-barbeque…"

Tenshi didn't care about the barbeque, he said quickly "We need to get you to a hospital!" he stood up but she tapped his arm, saying softly, "Tenshi… forget it…" he looked at her, sitting down on the ground and hugging her body. Leaning against the wooden wall of the cafe.

She smiled in his arms and said "D-Dying in the ar-arms of an angel… How lu-lucky…" Tenshi smiled sadly, "I don't feel lucky… Everyone I get close to seems to die." Aizami pressed on his chest and said seriously, "Tenshi… Don't think like that… This… This w-was a lo-long time coming… The clan… was sick… hopefully i-it can be reborn aga-again… but better…"

She reached up and wiped his tears, leaving streaks of blood on his face, "Don't cry… Nor-Normally your first l-love is b-bitter. Haha…" she coughed up blood and sucked in a breath of air, Tenshi swallowed and cried, looking at her sadly, saying "You're so stupid." Aizami giggled with difficulty, saying softly, "I know… Tenshi, listen carefully…"

She sucked in a deep breath before coughing out blood violently, saying firmly, "I've been holding you back all this time… I can tell you even thought of giving up the cafe… I don't want to hold you back anymore… I-I want to say that you should forget about me…" she started crying, "Why can't I? Why can't I say it…"

Tenshi teared up, hugging her tight, whispering "Aizami…" Aizami cried bitterly, "I want you to move on! But I also want you to remember me forever… Am I so selfish, Tenshi…? I love you… Tenshi… I'm sorry… I wa-was born… Uchiha…" she reached for her eyes and tore them out of her sockets, saying "Tak-Take them… Take these damn things… I didn't wa-want this… I only wanted to be h-happy… You made me v-very h-happy… I c-coudn't give you a s-s-son and I'm sorry!"

Tenshi shook his head and kissed her bloody forehead, "It's okay." he didn't know what else to say, he just wanted to cry. He felt like he was sent back 5 years… Aizami suddenly laughed gently, "I hope… I hope you can f-find someone again… I'm th-the wors-worst aha… Failed again… Father…"

Tenshi held her, rocking back and forth as Aizami muttered, "Is it f-funny that I can see a bright light only now… when I removed my cursed eyes… Li-Live happily, Tenshi… that's my on-only wish fo-for you… P-Promise me…"

Tenshi pulled her in, resting his forehead on hers as he said "I promise." Aizami seemed to be relieved of a huge burden, smiling peacefully, "T-That's go-good… Go-Goodnight, Tenshi…" as she stroked his cheek, her hand gently dropping to the ground…

Lifelessly.
