First Date

Naruto bounced around his lot, jubilant and happy. It was his first date, so you could feel for him. Who wouldn't enjoy a first date with their dream girl(or boy)?

He was getting ready- bouncing around was included in that step. He decided to get off all his excess energy from his excitement- he was going out with Sakura tonight. He jumped and spinned and bounced and twirled, but his excitement seemed to keep forming into more and more energy. He was balling up into a big vat of hyperness at this moment. Good thing it was only 5:00 right now.

Sakura was still out and about in her regular clothing. She was in the mall looking at some different styles of dresses and formal wear. She was so caught up in what impression each outfit would make when Naruto saw them. She was actually a little paranoid rather than keeping up with her reasoning. In other words, her mind was starting to exaggerate a bit. It was just so hard, she couldn't keep straight. Eventually, Sakura picked out a short white dress- it was sparkly and went very high up. She decided to show Ino and some of her other friends.

After he had calmed himself down, Naruto decided to pick out what to wear. Naruto picked out a short sleeve black shirt, with black pants to match. He gathered his inner energy, and let it wither away within him. It was finally 7:00 and Naruto's doorbell started to ring. Out of instinct, he skipped over to answer the door.

Of course, it was Sakura- in her new shiny white dress. She seemed happy and giddy. "So," she began, "ready?" Naruto tilted his head a bit, a sheepish smile on his face, "Am I ever? C'mon, let's get going."

They walked out in the streets of Konoha, their hands held, and faces bright. They stopped by Ichiraku's first. As usual, Naruto ordered ramen(like you can get anything else there,) and Sakura got ramen as well, trying to be careful not to spill any on her new dress. Naruto tried to liven up the date. "Hey, Sakura?" She turned her head from her bowl to look at Naruto. "Yeah?" "I was thinking… what if.. Sasuke were still here? I mean, what if he never left?" Sakura smiled, and turned her seat. "Naruto," her voice was soft and gentle, with a happy tone to it, "you can't go around asking 'what if' all the time. Just… live a little.. Okay?" Naruto turned his head away and looked at his ramen, a sad smile on his face. He turned back with a brighter smile, and said, "Okay.."

Sakura turned back in her seat and continued to eat her ramen. Naruto ate a little more, and then turned his head to stare at Sakura. After a few minutes of Sakura noticing this and Naruto not saying a word, she became a little paranoid. "Yes, Naruto?" Naruto blushed, and turned his head away swiftly. "O-oh, um, nothing." Sakura smiled, and continued to eat, once again. Naruto blushed and stared at his ramen for a few more seconds, then ate up the last of his ramen.

Naruto and Sakura left the booth, and walked with each other, once again hand in hand, and faces just as bright. They walked on, and continued talking. "So, where do you wanna go next?" Naruto looked over at Sakura. "Uh, I guess, we could go see a movie." Yeah, that's time consuming, Naruto thought, and I guess it's romantic. "Sure, that sounds fun." Sakura smiled at him, and looked back.
