There he was. The pale eyed devil. Fourteen-Year-Old Hyuuga Neji walked onto the bus on their way to Konoha Ninja High. He was very tough, very popular, and very infamous for his attitude.He wore a perfectly white zip-up hoodie, black skater shorts, and fat white sneakers with black laces. Oh yeah, and he was H-O-T HOT!

Thirteen-Year-Old Uzumaki Naruto blushed. He sported a similar hoodie, only orange, with black skater shorts and orange skater shoes with black soles.

Naruto sat in the seat next to him, and he had the hugest
crush on him.

'I so like this guy... but... does that mean I'm... gay?! What's more, he's probably straight, I mean, he went out with Tenten and, well, tons of girls! Ugh! This is so frustrating.' Naruto would always think.

Neji sat down with his books in hand. He sighed and leaned his head back against the seat. Naruto looked away and tried to keep his cool. Neji looked over at the blushing Naruto with one eye.

"What's with you?" Neji asked.

Naruto snapped out of his daze instantly and almost had a heart-attack.

"Wh-who, me? I'm fine."

"You looked all flushed." Neji laughed. "You sick?"

Naruto grinned nervously. "No, I'm okay, really."

Just then, both Naruto's and Neji's best friends walked onto the bus. Naruto's was thirteen-year-old Inuzuka Kiba. He wore a short-sleeved gray tee with a black Konoha symbol on it. He had black shorts and gray sneakers. Akamaru was on his head.

Neji's was fourteen-year-old Uchiha Sasuke. He had on a half-open navy blue jacket with a white t-shirt under it. He had navy blue shorts and black sneakers. Sasuke walked over to Neji.

"Why are you talking to this dumbass loser?" He asked calmly.

Naruto frowned looking pissed. He always hated Sasuke.

"He's not a loser." Neji said.

Naruto looked up and he smiled in true happiness.

"Whatever." was Sasuke's much expected remark.

Kiba approached Naruto and sat down.

"Do you have some kind of a deathwish?!" Kiba asked.

"What? No, I was just..." Naruto started.

"That's Neji and Sasuke!" Kiba stated nervously, interrupting Naruto's sentence. "Those guys, they'd tear us apart."

"Yeah, I know..." Naruto said.

After a few more stops and a good amount of road, they finally arrived at the school. It was really only about a half-hour drive, but to Naruto, it lasted forever.

Upon their arrival at the academy, Naruto walked in with Kiba and headed to first period. All day, all he thought about was Neji, and the fact that he spoke to him for the first time since the school year started.

Afterwards, when school ended, they walked back to the bus. Naruto and Kiba boarded the bus and walked to the back where they sat. Shortly after, Neji and Sasuke followed, sitting in their usual seat.

Kiba and Naruto joked with each other, all the while Naruto wasn't really focused on the usual funny things. It is obvious what he was focused on.

"Damn dude, you keep glancing over at them two." Kiba glared at Sasuke who returned the glare which scared the living hell out of Kiba.

"Huh?" Naruto said. Then he realized that he had been unconsciously staring at Neji through the entire conversation. He blushed.

Kiba laughed. "What're you, gay?" he teased.

Naruto laughed sarcastically, suppressing a scowl.

When it came to Kiba and Sasuke's stop, they got off leaving only Neji and Naruto in the back of the bus.

"What's up tough guy?" a laughing , familiar voice came from beside Naruto. He turned around only to see that Hyuuga Neji had moved into his seat and was looking straight at him. Naruto gasped, screeched, jumped, went chibi, and fell over onto the floor. Neji lookes down at him in a puzzled manner. Naruto was as red as a cherry. "You okay dude?" He asked helping the blushing blonde up. Naruto was very embarrassed. And that was perfectly understandable. The hottest, coolest boy in school just saw him fall over...

"Shit..." Naruto said silently, mostly to himself. "Yeah, I'm fine." he managed out nervously with an uncomfortable smirk. Just then, it came to Neji's stop. He walked away, but then paused and turned back at Naruto, who was stunned. He waved and grinned.

"See ya tomorrow Naruto-Kun!"

Naruto had to actually use chakara to remain sitting straight up. There were five things wrong with this situation. All of which were things that never happen. Number one, Neji said bye, number two, Neji waved, number three, he grinned, number four, he knew Naruto's name, and number five, he called him "kun." This was one stressful time for the little Uzumaki.
