“OOHHHH!!!!”


A crying sound erupted from the lungs of the medic as she hold her head up and mouth opened wide


It wasn’t a wail of pain or sadness, it was a wail of frustration.


“Why can’t I find a man?!” Shizune, The Apprentice of The Godaime Hokage, wailed in dismay as once again her attempts in the dating life had ended in miserable failure. She had gone on a date with Genma, only for Tsunade to show up just as they started and drag her back to The Office in order to help her fill out a mountain of paperwork that she had procrastinated on and neglected to finish ahead of time and was due the next morning.


It took hours but they got it done and Shizune rushed back to the restaurant but the place was closed and Genma had left shortly after she had been taken. That was the reason for her outburst and sorrow.


Being the apprentice of one of the greatest and most powerful Medics to have ever lived at first sounded like a dream come true to most, but to Shizune it had meant the destruction and eradication of her social life.


“I’m destined to be alone forever.” Shizune said in dramatic fashion as Anime Tears poured down her face at the prospect of growing old and dying without ever being in love or with someone.


It was like this every time she remotely got close to a male. During her travels with Tsunade, in almost every town and village they had stopped at, she would encounter a guy and just when it looked like she was going to be have a date and establish a relationship with them, it was ruined she was dragged off by Tsunade who was on the run from debt collectors demanding the money that she owed them from gambling.


She looked and saw Naruto and Sakura walking together chatting happily and smiling as they had just went on one and jealous envy wailed up inside of her as she looked on at the two and other couples. Of course, Sakura despite being The Godaime’s apprentice as well didn’t seem to have any problems with having a social life and being with someone and going on a date it looked like, only her. It seemed like everyone else was with someone except for her. Even Ebisu of all people she saw had a special someone he spent time with, she was alone all by herself.


“Maybe I should become a Nun.” She bitterly lamented to herself. That seemed to be her fate in life the way things were going.


Bump!


Someone suddenly bumped against her as she stood there catching her off guard and she stumbled and fell to the ground landing on her bottom.


“Sorry!” The person who had ran into her said and she saw it was a civilian who had accidentally knocked her down the two colliding against one another. “I didn’t see where I was going.” He apologized to her.


“No its my fault, I wasn’t paying attention.” She said to the man who had black hair and brown eyes and was wearing a simple outfit. “Oh,” She said her eyes widening. “Your arm.”


“Huh?” He said and he looked and saw that he had scraped his arm on the pavement. “Uh oh, better get that cleaned up.” He said but didn’t seem too concern.


“Here, allow me.” Shizune said standing up and taking hold of his arm. “This might sting for a sec.” She said and administered healing chakra into it and the bruise and the bit of blood disappeared as his arm returned to normal. “There, that’ll do.”


“Thanks, Miss?”


“Shizune,” She responded to him. “My name is Shizune.” She said to the man.


“My names’ Zeta,” The civilian told her. “I hope to see you around.” He mentioned and turned and walked away.


Shizune watched him go and noticed that he was kinda cute.


The next day was more of the same as Shizune had to help the ever so diligent (NOT!) Godaime with filling out forms. Carrying a stack of papers she let out a bored sigh. One of them fell from under her grasp. “Oops.” She said and reached down and picked it up and put it back on the stack.


“You know Shizune, you really need to find yourself a guy, or a girl if you’re into that kinda stuff instead of working all the time.” Tsunade remarked taking a drink of Sake as she looked on at her.


“Gee, what made you think of that Tsunade-sama?” Shizune said her voice dripping with sarcasm which she did not pick up. It was because of her that she couldn’t be in a relationship


“Girls like Sakura and Ino are half your age and already being in relationships and dates, I don’t think I’ve ever seen you with a man all the years we‘ve known one another.” Tsunade rambled on and Shizune’s eye twitched a bit at her words. “I guess if you was really desperate you could wipe up a potion or something. Heh, reminds me of what I tried to use on Dan.” She said with a fond smile.


“Potion?” Shizune asked in response turning to look at her.


“Yeah, a potion that makes whoever drinks it fall in love with the first person he or she sees. I created one,” Tsunade said recalling it unaware of the light up look in her eyes. “Heck, when I had a crush on Dan when I was a Chunin, I was this close to shoving the potion down his throat to make sure he fell in love with me. I think I may still have it, I may have left if here when I left fifteen years ago.”


A gust of wind blew through the room sending papers flying and Tsunade opened her eyes and looked and saw that her apprentice had disappeared from the room.


“Shizune?” She said in confusion as it was just her in the room. What had gotten into her?


Shizune in a blur of speed that even Might Gai would tell her to slow down had ran to Tsunade’s home in an instant and went inside and looked around the place. “C’mon, please still be here.” She said looking around every spot she imagined it could be at. She knew where Tsunade kept her stashes of gambling and booze money she so had become adept at finding them. Checking everywhere


She checked and saw a portrait of an adult her and Dan and grinned. Of course, she walked over and removed the portrait and grinned as she saw a secret panel. She opened it and saw a small bottle inside of it and reaching in took it out. She opened it and saw that despite the years, it was still there as it had been preserved all this time.


She looked on at the blue bottle with the liquid inside. This was it! Her chance at last to finally be with someone. She was THAT desperate that she would use a potion. Setting the portrait back up she quickly exited the place


A delighted grin was on her face as she walked on through the streets holding it in her hands. “Ok, the question is, who do I use it on?” She mused to herself as she walked. “Kakashi, nah he’s never seen without that mask of his? Gai? No thanks.” She said shaking her head of that image. “Iruka? Maybe but Anko would probably skin me alive if I did.” She said recalling the purple haired kunoichi. “I need to think this over as the guy I’m going to use this on will-”


Bump!


“Oof!”


Like before she landed on her bottom as she had collided into someone.


“We keep on bumping into each other don’t we Shizune?” A familiar voice said and she looked and saw she had bumped into Zeta again who had a good natured smile.


“Sorry, I was in a hurry!” She claimed to him and reached around feeling for the potion and picked what she believed it to be up. “I’d like to stay and talk but I have to go.” She said bowing apologetically and went off. Zeta watched her go and shook his headas he picked up what he thought was his bottle which happened to also be a blue color.


“Whew!” Shizune said to herself as she went on. “That was close, if this broke.” She said holding the bottle up. Good thing the lid was on tight. She examined it and looked on at it and noticed it felt heavier than it did before. Curiously she looked on at it and undid the lid and took a sniff.


Tea? It didn’t smell like tea before. Reaching her finger in she put it in and pulling it out took a lick and nothing happened to her. “What this is just tea?!” She shouted in rage and felt fire burn inside of her as this was nothing more than ordinary tea! “Tsunade I‘m going to-” She started to say as this was a fools’ errand when dread hit her harder than Tsunade hit Jiraiya as she just remembered what had happened.


Back there, she had bumped into him and had felt around without looking and pulled the bottle she believed was the potion up. Zeta also had a bottle that he had dropped when she had ran into him.


If she had this, than that meant that- “Not good! Not good!” She shouted and ran back the way she had gone


She ran as fast as her feet could carry her and soon saw the one who had it. “ZETA!” She called out to him and he turned to look at her, and unfortunately he had just put the potion which he believed to be his bottle of tea to his lips.


“Oh crud.” Shizune said to herself as he had gone and drank it.


Zeta drank it finding the flavor to be different than before and looked at Shizune and suddenly felt something come over him. Feelings for the girl erupted inside of him and he smiled at her as he saw her surrounded by a pink and white aura. “Zeta?” She asked him looking on.


He appeared in front of her a smile on his face as they were face to face. “Shizune.” He said in a husky tone of voice his body up close and next to hers.


“Um,” Shizune responded to him a deep blush growing on her face at how close his body was to hers just now, never having been this close with another person. “Are you feeling okay?” She asked Zeta who grinned.


“Better than ever, now that I am with you.” He told her and her blush deepened as he wrapped an arm around her waist. “My love,” He called her and her eyes widened as the potion had worked!


Zeta leaned forward and kissed her surprising Shizune who squeaked in surprise as he did. But any chance of her trying to protest it went out the window as she closed her eyes and began to kiss him back their lips against one another’s as he had fallen in love with her due to the potion.


They pulled away from one another after a minute the two staring at one another.


Shizune grinned to herself as she wrapped her arms around him as she had finally got herself a man.
