Extra:

EDITED

Anyways, ENJOY : )

Sakura scrunched up her little nose at the offending pile of brown dripping mud that was currently being shoved into her face. Her big green eyes slightly began to water at the pushy blonde boy who kept moving the icky stuff closer to her despite her leaning away. She didn't get why this boy didn't seem to understand that she didn't want it. She didn't even like mud!

"NO! NO NO NO! I NO WANT IT! MOMMY!"

Sakura finally shouted at the blonde boy making him jerk back in surprise from her sudden voice.

The two barely noticed the boy's claimed mud-pie had made contact with the wood planks that lined the sandbox that Sakura had been playing in with a newly bought pink bucket.

The little boy looked so startled that he looked around quickly before he got into the sandbox and took a nearby red bucket and promptly put it on his head. Sakura's calls for her mother stopped then as she blinked at the boy. She peered at the glossy plastic bucket on the blonde's head before slowly shuffling closer, completely forgetting why she was so upset seconds ago, and taped the bucket's surface gently.

"What you doing?"

The bucket-head boy shook their head making the girl puff out her cheeks in response. She grabbed the sides of the red bucket and made to tug it up and off the boy's head only to have tanned hands slightly bigger than her own pale ones clamp down over hers to keep the bucket in place.

The boy tugged the bucket down down fully. "Stop that, I is hiding."

Sakura tilted her head, not that the boy could see, she was confused and utterly so as to why the boy wanted to hide. She looked around thinking there might be a monster around. Her mother was talking to a red haired woman, both laughing whenever they looked in Sakura's direction, and the other parents were sitting around or playing with the other kids in the park. Nothing scary there. She focused back her attention on the boy.

"Bucket can stay if you tells why yous hiding."

It took a moment of silence before the boy crossed his arms over his head and turned his head with a tilt that was hard to notice thanks to the bucket but the head tilt was visible enough. "You yell loud."

Green eyes gave the toddler version of an offended look. Sakura slid the bucket upward until she could see blue eyes looking at her, they looked a bit purple from the surrounding red color of the plastic bucket. The two looked at each other not saying another word for a moment. Sakura took in the slightly worried expression on the boy's face and those big blue eyes that made her think of the swimming pool in her backyard she had just been playing in an hour or so before coming to the park.

"You look silly."

The blonde's reply was to wiggle his nose before pushing down the bucket over his head again.

"I sorry, that was mean." Sakura added with a small sad expression on her young face as she pulled off the red bucket fully and let it drop onto the sand beside them. "I'm Sakura…"

"Naruto." the boy replied with a small smile as his hands glanced down to his mudpie-less hand. "You don't like pies?"

"Pies?" Sakura repeated looking confused.

Naruto leaned out of the sandbox to pick up the splattered remains of his mud-pie and made a mini version of it with two hands before showing it to Sakura who blinked then gave a lengthy 'Oh'. He watched as she shook her blonde(*1) head with a big smile and took the mud pie making Naruto beam at her. "I thought yous didn't like wem."

"I thought yous just being a meanie head. I sorry." Sakura apologized with a sniffle which the boy returned oddly enough followed by giving her a bigger smile that made his blue eyes disappear behind his eyelids.

Naruto was startled out of the happy expression was she suddenly yelled out "NO!" to him and shook his shoulders making the tiny pile of sand that had been at the bottom of the red bucket but replaced itself atop his head to fall off. "What?" He blinked at her, eyes wide now.

Sakura's own face mirrored the blonde's. "Your eyes went away...I didn't like it, they very pretty."

Naruto made to touch his eyes but Sakura reached up and clamped her child sized hands on his cheek making him startle into an odd stillness as he stared at her. The two looked at each other, jade green eyes boring into sky blue. It was an odd thing to see two very young kids standing in a sandbox just staring at one another with only a few inches in between them.

"You have pretty eyes too." the boy said after awhile, his stance shifting as the limit of his willingness to stay still was reached. He reached up and touched Sakura's face only to feel something slimy mush around lightly. "Your cheek feels funny."

Sakura blinked then glanced down. She squealed when she saw brown stuff on her face. Naruto jerked back again and Sakura let go of his face to paw at her own, yelling about yucky gross stuff. Naruto opened his mouth to tell her it was just mud but she got up and ran away to her mother who was next to his own.

With a confused expression he got out of the sandbox and made his way to his mother while eyeing a now bawling Sakura who was pressing into her own mother's legs. His mother slid her fingers into his hair once he was close enough and tugged him against her side; his right hand coming up to grip the hem at the back of her shirt as he looked at Sakura.

"Naru, why is that pretty little girl crying?"

Naruto turned his big blue eyes up at his mother, her red hair looking a shade lighter thanks to the sun beaming down upon them. Her blue eyes were just as warm looking tho with their soft mothering expression. He smiled at seeing her but then furrowed his brows once he remembered her question. He shook his head not really sure.

"Naruto, is it?" Sakura's mom this time spoke to him, making Naruto press a bit more into his own mother but nodded in reply. "It's okay, Naruto. Sakura doesn't really like mud but I'm sure she liked the, uh, pie you made her."

Sakura sniffled and slowly looked to the blonde boy who was now looking at her with that same expression he had when he still had the bucket on his head. She nodded slowly, rubbing her eyes on the back of her hands before giving a smile that seemed to relax the boy.

"Muds yucky!" she exclaimed.

"Pies are yummy!" Naruto replied.

The two shared a grin in which their mothers laughed at before setting up another time for their children to meet up. Sakura and Naruto met up almost every day that summer and once it was realized they would attending the same kindergarten, seeing as Naruto had just moved into the area at the start of summer, they become very good childhood friends.

-years later-

Sakura bent over at the waist, hands on her hips as she stared down at the dozing tanned face of a blonde haired boy who for some reason thought the front lawn of her house was an ideal place to take a nap. She took a moment to let her eyes take in the boy's appearance. Choppy blonde hair, freshly cut by her own mother, naturally tanned skin that could rival a surfer's and a growing build that was a little under average for a 14 year old.

"NARUTO UZUMAKI! WAKE THE HELL UP, YOU BLONDEY!"

A single blue eye that easily reflected the clear sky above them stared up at the upside down image of Sakura's slightly frowning face. The boy's other remaining closed eyelid lifted up after a slow blink of the pair together to fully revealing the most beautiful hue of blue eyes Sakura had ever seen. She meant it back then when she said Naruto had pretty eyes.

"You're a blonde too, ya know."

Sakura huffed down at her childhood friend. Now if only his voice didn't sound like a growling puppy and he didn't have the hyperactive energy to match a puppy either. She was silently thankful her friend didn't become fully awake til after their first class. She shook her head fondly at him and flicked him on the forehead. "Just get up or we're going to be late."

A soft wind breezed past them ruffling Naruto's spiky soft hair along with her own. He laid there for a bit longer til the breeze passed before getting up, making a comment about how Sakura's green and white striped panties matched her eyes. The blonde promptly booked it when her scream of rage sounded behind him followed by Sakura's own footfalls as she gave chase; fully intent on beating her friend til he forgot what her panties looked like.

Naruto groaned as he rubbed his abused head while remaining slumped over his desk. Sakura could really hit for a girl. He shot a glare at her that went ignored as her friend entered the room.

"Bitch..."

"Who? Sakura?" Asked someone with a somewhat similar voice to Naruto's own.

"Ya, who else Kiba?"

Kiba took up his normal seat beside the blonde and ruffled up that blonde hair with a grin which earned him a glare and a rough shove to his arm. The two had met earlier in the school year, Kiba had missed out on the first day due to a dog bite after being told to stay away from one of the meaner dogs. They got along great having very similar personalities and likes; Naruto loved to mess around and joke and Kiba enjoyed a good prank and a laugh. If Kiba didn't have bronzed skin, shaggy brown hair and a different facial structure the two could've been twins.

"I don't get why you hang out with her, man." Kiba glanced over to the blonde haired girl, her green eyes focused on a fashion magazine another girl was pointing to beside her. He shook his head and blinked at the look on his friend's face. He quickly held up his hands in surrender.

"Why do you say that?"

"Well...I mean, she's a chill girl don't get me wrong and it's fine when we all kick it, but to be honest, I feel like there's something about her that's uh, I don't know yet, but it's a nagging thing, you know?" Kiba shrugged a bit helplessly. "A dog always trusts its instincts, man."

Naruto raised a brow then gave a snort before pulling out his notebook for class as the teacher greeted everyone while walking in. "You're not a dog even if you eat like one."

Kiba's mock offended 'hey' was drained out by the the scrape of chairs as students got into the seats once the teacher called for attention. He stuck his tongue out at the blonde who merely smiled in response before attempting to pay attention.

A/N: Yeeeaaahh, I know; kinda short. But I didn't want to rush into the story. I was originally going to start it off with Sakura already a cocaine addict but then I realized it wouldn't explain as to why her and Naruto were even such good friends to the point that he'd be there for her so strongly despite not understanding her reasons. So! I started it out like this; where they're nice and normal...and then shit gets fucked up. Yay high school!

1* - Sakura in my story is actually born with blonde hair; not like Naruto's or Ino's though. Either way she's blonde. I won't be giving anything away when I tell you that she does dye her hair bubblegum pink though. : D

Chapter 2 is coming up soon, so expect that! The story will get better and start really moving after that chapter or even toward the ending of it. I didn't want to linger too long on the positive life since I kinda wanna get this story done. It's my first chapter story so I'd like to keep it short until I get better enough for chapter stories that are like 15 chapters long or around there. BUT! That doesn't mean I'll be rushing this story to where it gets confusing.

Although I may not double proof-read the chapters before posting them up; just to save time since I can only write during the night between 11pm-2/3am. Woot-woot to my lively life.

ANYWAYS;

look forward to chapter 2 but let me know if you like the story so far or it needs some stuff tweaked.
