I want to know if I should leave this a one shot, or if I should turn it into an actual story. I want you guys to let me know! XD

I rushed down the hall to his locker. It was the end of the day and we had been planning for a week to go out and eat as much ramen as we could. Naruto, my best friend and apparently(according to rumors and my parents) my soul mate. I remember three years ago when he helped my find my way around junior high.

(Flashback)

I was desperately trying to read the map and schedule that was handed to me that morning. I was too shy to ask for directions to the western side of the school so I tried my best to navigate myself. Plenty of people passed me in the hall and it must have been obvious I was lost; they sneered at me. I was the new girl. My dad had been transferred here to Konoha, and my mom and I came with him. I was starting all over again, making friends and learning yet another school top to bottom. And next year would be the same, at the high school. I walked blindly looking down at the map, and when a huge guy knocked into me, I couldn't see it coming. He shoved me aside toward the lockers and I was prepared to meet the cold unforgiving metal, when I landed against some ones chest.

"Grow the hell up Matt!" Looking down at me his blond bangs hung over me and his cool blue eyes looked at me comfortingly. "You alright?"

"Y-Yeah. I'm sorry," I stand on my own and smooth my blouse. I smile and try to laugh a little, but it comes out nervous. "I'm just a little lost. I can't even find my locker, or the western side of this place."

"Uh, you're already on the western side." He tries to smile and I stand shocked for a second.

"Oh, good. Now I just need to find my locker." I turn to walk away, so embarrassed that I didn't know that.

"Hang on a second." He reaches out to grab my wrist and spins me around once he does. I look directly at him and don't protest, or do anything for that matter, when he takes the papers. "Number sixty six B, hey that's just down the hall!" He starts walking, but stops once he notices I'm not following. I immediately shake my head to clear it and start down the hall after him.

We spoke and laughed all day and he introduced me to his friends; Kiba, Choji, Shikamaru, Ino, Sakura, Shino(sort of), Hinata, and vaguely, Sasuke. I would find out later that it was only magic that Naruto and Sasuke managed to not rip each other's heads off.

(End Flashback)

"Naruto!" I walk faster once I see him; he looks and smiles ear to ear when he sees me. I run right up to him and jump, laughing as he spins me around. The two of us were incredibly close; like so close, if one had a cast, the other would be the first to sign it, no question. He sets me down and closes his locker, flipping his school bag over his shoulder.

"You ready for the most, AMAZING, after school food ever!"

"Hellz yeah!" I throw my arms in the air and smile a huge smile.

"Watch your language." I open my eyes, and Kakashi walks past, smiling under that mask of his.

"Sorry, Kakashi Sensei, I'm just really excited."

"Yes, Naruto's ramen obsession is rubbing off on you."

"It's not an obsession, it's a passion." Naruto crosses his arms as Kakashi passes by. I giggle to myself.

"Come on, we better go." I grab his arm and start for the stairs. Halfway down we pass by Sasuke who was heading, upstairs.

"If it isn't the two love birds." This was one of the reasons that everyone thought Naruto and I were meant for each other. I glare at him. I didn't hate him, in fact the two of us were, almost, friends. We just banter about how stupid the other is. It was one of those things where we only kept each other around to have someone to be rude to. We knew whatever was said was never particularly true, nor did the other really mean it. I would call him up sometimes and call him an ass when I had a bad day over the summer. I was possibly the only girl who didn't have fantasies about him, so I knew he didn't hate me.

"Oh, but Sasuke, I have a confession. I'm not in love with Naruto," I back him against the stairwell and dramatically put the back of my hand to my forehead. "I'm in love with you, Uchiha Sasuke!" I look back and smirk. I shove off him and he just rolls his eyes.

"Call me when you grow up."

"How's tonight sound. Oh, that's right, I would kill myself if I ever fell for you." I grab Naruto's arm again and continue down. I can hear Sasuke mumble something, but can't make out what it was supposed to be.

It's seven and I am bored out of my wits. I had finished my homework easy, but now I had nothing to do. I roll over to my stomach and reach down to the floor where my phone had fallen. I pick it up and a second later it rings. It was Sakura. What could she need? I thought to myself before accepting the call.

"Yes?"

"Hey, did you finish those math problems?"

"…Yes."

"Can you help me with the sixth problem?"

"When you say help, would it be better if I just gave you the answer?"

"… Did we need to show our work?"

"no."

"Yeah that works."

"It's twenty-seven."

"Oh, kay thanks."

"Bye." I hang up and dial Uzumaki's home number. On the second ring someone picks up.

"Hello."

"Hello, Mrs. Uzumaki!"

"Jay, how nice to hear from you! How are you dear?"

"I'm fine, I was calling for-"

"For Naruto, I'll go get him." There's a little bit of silence before I can hear Kushina yelling for her son on the other end.

"Yes, Jay?"

"What are you doing right now?"

"Uh, homework…"

"So you're actually choosing to do it this time."

"Shut up!"

"Anyway, I was wondering if you could do something with me. I'm super bored and both parents are at work."

"I don't know-"

"Pretty please! PRETTY, PRETTY PLEASE!"

"~Sigh~ You wanna come watch a crappy comedy?"

"Will there be popcorn?"

"Yeah, I guess."

"YAY! I'll be right over!" I hang up and change from my school clothes into jeans and a light blue shirt with white stripes. I throw on my purple sweatshirt and tug on my convers before shoving my phone in my pocket and running outside. Naruto lived on the other side of town, but it wasn't a huge town, so the walk isn't horrible.

I arrive at the door and Minato opens the door and smiles when he recognizes me. I smile back and wait to be invited in.

"Miss Jay, I haven't seen you for a while."

"Your definition of a while is two weeks." I laugh and he laughs too. Naruto's parents were super nice and seemed to really like me.

"Well, get in here. It's a chilly night." I step in and kick off my shoes and strip myself of my sweat shirt. "Naruto is still trying to finish his work, I think he said it was math. Who knows when he'll be finished."

"I'll go help. It's the least I can do, and I've already finished." I stalk up the stairs to Naruto's room. I stop in front of the door and take a deep breath. I throw the door open and run over to the chair he's sitting in. "NARUTO!" I jump onto him and knock the chair backwards. After a few seconds, he blinks and looks at me.

"Don't you get tired of doing that?" I shake my head before standing. I reach out to help him up and he picks up the papers that had flown everywhere.

"I'm here to help you finish this all really quick. So what are you stuck on?" Naruto rolls his eyes before walking over to the bed opening the book and finding the problems he had yet to do. I walk over and read over his shoulder. I could do this for a while, I don't mind helping Naruto, but I feel like sometimes this friendship has more to it. This was one of those moments, and I couldn't shake it.

"The DVD's in!"

"I'm coming with the popcorn!" Naruto runs back into the living room and sets the popcorn on the table before collapsing into the couch next to me. Naruto's parents said they would leave us alone. The movie starts and Naruto wasn't kidding, it was a crappy comedy. It had something along the lines of the plot being about these friends that get themselves into a situation where people assume they're a couple. It starts to get a little later, and the movie is so stupid it was almost putting me to sleep. I close my eyes for about five seconds before I find myself tipping to the right and laying on Naruto's chest. I must have had his arm pinched or something because he pulls it out from under me. He hesitates before just setting it on my back. I yawned and tried to keep watching the movie. It was almost over and I was still laying on Naruto. I reach out to grab some popcorn and Naruto softly chuckles under me.

"What's so funny?" I look at him, kinda tired and try to smile.

"I just think it's kinda funny; we're just friends and you're practically falling asleep on my chest."

"So you're saying if we weren't friends it wouldn't be funny?"

"Well, you know, it'd be cute if we were actually in a relationship." I sit bolt upright and just look at him. My cheeks feel warm and I can only imagine how hideous the blush could be. I had told myself that Naruto and I would never be boyfriend and girlfriend, but there were times that I had thought about it. I mean, it wasn't like things would be much different, if we were a couple.

"What are talking about?" I try to laugh, but it's tough. This is really awkward, the guy is my freaking best friend!

"Well, I've been thinking. For the longest time people have teased us saying that we're an item. But, would it really be so bad if we were?"

"Naruto, you're my best friend… "That was really all I could say, I was speechless.

"Yeah, but I'm not sure I can settle for that. I thought I might as well put it out there, if you don't want to that's fine." Naruto looks away from me and at some point my brain must have let my heart take over. I quit fighting the fact that this is what I had wanted.

I smile and reach out. I caress his cheek and he turns back to me. I lean forward and tip my head. I was almost surprised, his lips were incredibly soft and I loved it. After a few seconds he pulls away and his shock changes to a soft smile.

"I'd hate to make you settle." I smile and lean in again. This time, he's ready and holds onto me tight, as if I might float away if he didn't. Neither of us paid attention to the movie anymore, there was something far more interesting in front of both of us. I couldn't be positive, but I could have sworn I heard his dad standing in the kitchen. And it almost sounded like he said 'finally'. But, then again, I couldn't be sure.

So, review or PM me letting me know what I should do and depening on what the majority says, I will try to comply.

bai-bai! (BTW, I was listening to beautiful soul while writing this, so I named it as such... ^w^")
