"Let me tell you something, _. Sasuke isn't all that great." You sat there with a small smile on your face as Naruto rambled on about millions of reasons why Sasuke sucked. You've grew up with the amazing 'Uchiha' yourself. From the time his brother would come get him from the back of your yard so you guys can train, to the time where the brutal murders occurred, and so on. You and Sasuke weren't close friends growing up.
When you were younger though, he was your greatest friend. The two of you spilt away once you both got older. During school, when you both were younger, he used to get teased all the time for liking you.
Some guys hated him for liking you.
Soon, as time passed, he got mature, and 'sexy' and girls started to swoon over him. Expect you. You kept to yourself, ignoring him like he ignored you.
Both of you became popular, whether it was from your looks, talents, or gestures.
Now here you are, on his team. Listening to Naruto go on about all the things he know he can do better. It's actually cute in a way. Smiling, you shook your head before looking over at Sakura who was fuming.
"Naruto! You can't talk about Sasuke like that! He's way better then you'll ever be." Amused by the display, you leaned against the tree a bit more.
"S-Sakura.. That's not true!" He whined, bowling his fist up as he felt his heart shake.
"You both are really something." You say smoothly, watching as they turned to face you, a tint of red dusting their features.
"W-What is that suppose to mean?" You looked at the pink haired girl before shrugging your shoulders shyly.
"Nothing bad, and I guess nothing good either."
"So, your second day here and you're already judging your teammates?" You glanced from your side to stare at the male talking. "Didn't know you had the guts."
"Well, I do mean freedom of speech runs in all of our blood, doesn't it?" You smirked, crossing your arms as you looked down at the ground. You could literally see the hearts in Sakura eyes, while Naruto had his name written in death format, in his eyes.
"Yah! Don't talk to Sasuke like that _." Sakura glared, and you scoffed.
"I do what I please." You causally say, running your fingers through your hair. "Where is Sensei?"
"Obviously not here." You ignored Sakura's smart comment, feeling as if though you might just lay it down on her. Clearing his throat, you and the other three turn to the direction of the sound and stared at the white hair man reading his favorite book.
"Hello everyone, did you miss me?" He smiled, even if you couldn't see it, you could tell by the corners/form of his lips curving up underneath that mask of his.
"No! What took you so long?" Naruto growled, glaring daggers at his teacher. You remained quiet, trying to take in much information as you can. The teacher chuckled and flashed step towards Naruto who jumped in surprise. Patting his shoulder, and gripped the young boy's shoulder smirking.
"Talking to me rudely, Naruto?"
You laughed quietly as the two started to bicker amongst each other. Naruto throwing an insult at Sasuke, only having Sakura coming to the defense of someone who could care less.
"What made you stay here?" You hear him ask, now fully leaning against the tree you were leaning on.
"Answers… Questions…" You say truthfully," Maybe even you." You joked, nudging him with a small giggle loving the way his face flushed, and he bit his lip and looked away. "Why does it matter? Can I not stay here?"
"There's things you don't know about here." He mumble.
"Well, care to be my tour guide?"
He looked at you briefly, smirking as he sighed. "These days should be more and more interesting since you're on this squad." At the time, you didn't know what he meant. Or what it meant. But you smiled, knowing full well that you and him were going to end up being best friends in the end.
Don't you remember that Sasuke? Do you even think back to our childhood days, or am I the only one? I get tired of being the only one.. I miss you, dumb ass….
