Konohagakure Jounin-sensei of Team 2, Hokage Apprentice.

After the training with Team 2.[/center][/i]

Kiyomi couldn't close her eyes. The guilt was preventing her from sleep. She knew what she had done. It was always after she had acted like that, that she knew that she had been wrong. It was wrong how she had handled the situation with Hayate. He had been for her, even when she didn't want it. Now that he needed help, where was she? She was standing on the sideline, commenting and criticizing him. Clenching her hands into fists, Kiyomi was glad that it was dark. Tears slowly rolled over her cheeks as she laid in her bed.

It wasn't that late yet. That made Kiyomi think if she could try to pay Hayate a visit. Maybe he was at Azumi? That would be easy for her to do so. Offering her apologies and suggesting a way to help him. To involve people who could make sure that nothing would go wrong. Curling up in her bed, Kiyomi stared at her hands. Maybe she could try to help. Like he had once tried to help her when she had set out to take care of Selia? Wasn't this not something that could be compared with that? For a moment Kiyomi felt small and useless. Realizing that she had been childish, she instantly wanted to blame that on her age. Some people saw her as a mature person and she knew she could make right decisions. But all the time? Didn't grown ups also not make mistakes? Some did those even on purpose, didn't they?

Rolling slowly on her back, Kiyomi stared at the barely able to be seen pictures on the ceiling. Pushing away the childish thoughts and wishes about how to solve or wanting how it had went, she knew what to do. Flexing her fingers, Kiyomi sighed as she managed to close her eyes. Yet, this would be a night where she wouldn't be able to get much sleep nor rest from the regret that was chasing her.
