Lily's pov
The sun was just starting to rise in the village of the hidden leaf as i awoke. I yawned and stretched and sat up in my nice comfy bed. i could hear the birds chirping and singing a beautiful melody outside. so i got up and opened my window.
Before i go any further i should probably tell you a little about myself. My name is lillian jinsé. When i was little my clan was huge and powerful. but then my older sister ophelia got framed for slaughtering my whole clan... Well my whole clan except me. There is this group called the blood spirals. their one goal in life is to annihilate my whole clan. Because of them the few scattered survivors of my clan are strewn across every nation split apart until the time comes to reunite.
My clans kekkei genkai is unique its called the Chìrè yuánjiàn. they say it is equal to the sharingon possibly even stronger. The purer of heart a person is the brighter the gold the eyes will glow. it allows its user to not only see chakra in people but to harness it from the world around them. It allows them to be one with nature and its creatures... Whatever all that means. And the prophecies say something about music but i'm not sure what seeing as that part of the story is completely singed off from the attack. I am the last surviving heir of the jinsé clan and i will one day unite my clan once more.
When i was 8 before the uchiha clan was destroyed my first and best friend was none other than sasuke uchiha. We were so close but then itachi attacked and my sister went with him totally abandoning me and her only advice was stay with sasuke , then in swoop all the fangirls who wouldn't let me get near him. and you are probably thinking why didn't you punch your way through? I am too much of a kind and gentle person to hurt the delusional fangirls. But anyways as i was saying.
I opened my window and smiled as i felt the warm springtime breeze on my face and felt the warm sun shine on my skin. The birds flew around me chirping their beautiful melody. It was so beautiful i just had to sing along. So as i got dressed i sung along with their beautiful melody practically skipping with happiness. I grabbed my bag and threw in my sketch book, my lunch, and my camera along with a couple ninja tools. once i thought i had everything i skipped out my door.
The reason i was so happy today was because today we would be assigned to our teams and meet our sensei. i ran all the way to the hyuuga compound smiling the whole way. hinata waved and smiled at me then frowned slightly putting her fingers together. what is it hinata? I asked my voice its usual quiet demeanor. i may be content with animals but with people i get all quiet just like hinata. Maybe thats why we are such close friends. but we know everything about eachother. everything from fave color to crush.
"where's your headband?"She asked in a voice equal in softness. my eyes widened and i gasped touching my neck gently. i bit my bottom lip my eyes flicking to the dirt road. i Started to tap my fingers on my leg rapidly. tapping my fingers was one of my tells that i just can't shake.
i was interrupted by my freakout session with the sound of chirping. i turned around and smiled in relief. Some of my birdy friends were flying towards me with my headband their little beaks. "thanks guys your all life savers". I said blue eyes twinkling as the blue one landed on my finger holding the metal part up while its two friends the yellow and pink swooped behind me knotting it perfectly.
Hinata smiled nodding in approval after thanking the birds as well and taking my hand. we walked to the academy together hand in hand. We both had content smiles on our faces. Me and hinata were one of the first ones in the class room. the only people there was a sleeping shikamaru, brooding sasuke and a munching crunching choji.
i felt my heart clench at the sight of sasuke. i admit over the past few years i have developed some sort of crush on my past best friend, but i'm not a fangirl. i love sasuke for so many more reasons than his looks or his skill. i love sasuke uchiha but he doesn't love me and thats okay because i know nothing could ever happen between us. i can fawn all i want but that would just make him write me off as just another fangirl. these fangirls have ruined any chance i have with sasuke but i doubt he would've liked me if they weren't around. i mean i'm too sweet. sasuke hates sweet things...but i refuse to change my kind character for a boy. this is me if they don't like they'll just have to deal. Hinata noticing my sudden light blush pulled me so we were sitting at the front of the class and my view was taken off my stunning old friend. "thanks" i said to her. my voice was so quiet i didn't even need to whisper. hinata nodded smiling slightly.
I pulled out my sketch book and started sketching a picture for iruka sensei seeing how he won't be our teacher anymore. I smiled as i lightly sketched a picture of iruka. Hinata sat next to me mesmerized as she watched me draw. i frowned tapping the back of my pencil on my face. this picture was missing something. i looked around the room and i saw it or well i saw eyes sparkled with new found inspiration as i erased a few lines here and there. I drew in a smiling naruto next to iruka. perfect i thought to myself.
hinata gasped and put her hand to her mouth. i turned to her confused and she just shakily pointed. in confusion i turned around in my chair and my hand flew to my mouth utterly shocked. sasuke and naruto were kissing. "Naruto you are so dead!" Sakura and ino screamed together.
i bit my bottom lip this was bad. i didn't want them to hurt naruto espescially because it really wasn't naruto who was sasukes first kiss, i was. But there was nothing i could do i was weak possibly weaker than hinata but when the fangirls said first kiss i felt sasukes eyes flash to me. for a brief second our eyes locked and i think i saw longing in his eyes. no thats not it, couldn't be, theres no way sasuke could like me besides he has to kill itachi. i reminded myself. He'll choose itachi over you he always will i said to myself sternly looking away as iruka comes in. However my little pep talk doesn't make that little spark of hope disappear.
"okay everybody listen up!" Iruka yelled making both me and hinata flinch slightly. "As you all know as of today you are all ninja and will be assigned to three man squads with the exception of one four man team due to our odd number. Each team will be led by a jounin a skilled highly advanced ninja. now for the teams. Team 8 kiba inuzuka, shino aburame, an hinata hyuuga. Your squad will be lead by kuranei." Iruka said. I bit my lip and started tapping my fingers on my leg. hinata noticed this and grabbed my hand while smiling at me reassuringly. i nodded to her in thanks. "the next team. choji akimichi, shikamaru nara, and ino yamanaka. team 7 sakura haruno, naruto uzumaki, sasuke uchiha,and lillian jinsè." He finished.
My eyes widened and i felt my heart beat quicken. I bit my bottom lip. "who's lily?!"Naruto asked making me cringe. I turned around slightly and waved just the tiniest bit my shyness immediately kicking in. "Oh well i'm fine with those two on my team but why do i have to work with a slug like sasuke!" Naruto asked or declared while pointing at sasuke and complaining to iruka. "naruto sasuke had the highest grades in the class you had the lowest to make the teams balanced we put you to together to even things out. "iruka said crossing his arms. "but" naruto started "no buts these teams are final". Iruka said slamming his hand down on the desk. "you will al meet your new sensei's after lunch you may all leave now" iruka said shuffling some papers around. i nodded to hinata and gave her a smile of reassurance. she beamed back and we hugged then she went in search of her team. "umm i-iruka s-sensei. i said walking over and pulling out the drawing. "umm i uh made this for you its sort of a present for just being our teacher all these y-years". i said twirling a piece of my hair. iruka smiled at me. "i love it lily thank you. " iruka said.i smiled and gave iruka a quick hug before climbing a tree outside to eat lunch. i mean there really is no point in trying to find sasuke who is probably being stalked by both naruto and sakura for two totally opposite reasons. i sighed and went back inside when i heard the bell ring.
I bit my bottom lip. time passed and our sensei still hasn't arrived. "naruto what are you doing?"Sakura asked hands on her hips with accusation in her voice. "well this is what he gets for being late!"Naruto said jamming the chalkboard eraser in between the door and doorway. "you dobe he's a jounin do you honestly think he'll fall for something so lame."Sasuke said. "yeah naruto what sasuke said! "Sakura yelled fist pumping.
i bit my bottom lip as i continued to sketch quietly in my notebook. i could feel sasuke peering at me curiously. so far i haven't said a word and i could tell it was relly bugging my old friend. have courage lils i thought to myself. "On the unlikely chance that he does fall for it i did bring my camera" I said speaking for the first time then throwing my camera to naruto who was smiling from ear to ear. "Hey thanks lily!"" Lily, what did you do that for! Don't encourage him! "Sakura said trying to chastise me with her hands on her hips. I giggled and shook my head at her. "its just a little fun before we get training sakura its no big deal. "Sakura looked at me completely and utterly shocked. "besides whats worth reaching your goals if you don't have a little fun on the way! Right sasuke?" I asked turning to my emo teammate." hn "was his responce. i couldn't help my smile. "thanks for agreeing with me" i said flipping my notebook page before he could see what i drew. My blue eyes met his charcoal black and i couldn't help but notice sasuke had moved just the tiniest bit closer to me. I also noticed the smile he was concealing behind his hands. Maybe he really did miss me i thought to myself.
my pencil froze when i heard footsteps coming down the hall. my eyes immediately flicked to the door in anticipation. The door slid open revealing a guy with silver hair wearing a mask and a slanted headband. The eraser fell on the guys head. naruto snapped the picture a goofy smile on his face. sasuke had a look of pure shock on his face and sakura was trying to put all the blame on naruto and i. have courage lils i thought to myself as i waved slightly at our new sensei smiling as best as i could with my shyness creeping in. "My first impression of you all is your all idiots."my new sensei said. "fair point."i thought to myself picking up my bag to go to the roof where sensei told us to go. sakura glared daggers at me as she exited the room naruto, racing after. i sighed and walked out of the room following sasuke to the my way up thoughts flew through my head. is sakura really going to hate me just for trying to be friends with sasuke? Does naruto still have my camera? I wonder if my jounin leader will like me more than sakura? And does sasuke miss me? Or was he just trying to figure me out? So many questions so little stairs.
