As Enri walked down the streets of Konoha, she noticed people were staring at her. She had been on a mission for most of the summer but, still that was no reason to stare. Her team had been sent out on a long mission much to the dismay of the Hokage, her father. She was still the same, black hair, white eyes, and pale skin. Her hair had been put up in a pony tail but that was the only thing that had changed about her.
"Enri Uzumaki," said someone.
Enri stopped in her tracks and rolled her eyes. She knew that voice. She turned around and looked at a raven hair boy with onyx eyes and a face that was like his father's.
"Shinju Uchiha," stated Enri, "What do you want?"
"I just came by to tell you how…" he paused, looking for the word, "hideous you've become over the summer."
Enri rolled her eyes. She and Shinju had been enemies for as long as she can remember. His girlfriend came running up to him and Enri rolled her eyes again. It was his team mate and girlfriend, Rika Nara. She was followed by Enri's teammates. Kiro Inuzuka and Shiro Aburame. They were like miniature versions of their father's. Enri smiled, they were her best friends. Kiro came up next to her while Shiro took his time walking.
"We thought to follow Rika because we thought Shinju was annoying you," explained Kiro.
"The worst ninja team I've seen in my life," started Shinju, "Nice to see you survived."
He put an arm around Rika and they walked off together. Enri took a few deep breaths. She hated those two so much. They always thought they were better than everyone else. Enri walked off to the training grounds and Kiro and Shiro followed. After training for a few hours, they were exhausted. They decided to go to a new restaurant that opened up. When they got there, Shinju and his friends were already there. He had tons of friends around the village most of them weren't ninja though. They were laughing. Enri rolled her eyes. They sat down and ordered their food. Kiro had some steak, Shiro wasn't hungry, and Enri had ramen. When she was about to put some in her mouth, something hit her head. She gritted her teeth and felt it. It was spaghetti. She turned around and glared at Shinju. He had a fork in his hand and it had spaghetti sauce on it. He laughed and Enri took a deep breath.
"They'll stop sometime," said Kiro.
"I doubt it," replied Enri.
They finished eating and left. Enri didn't like being in the same room as Shinju. After Shiro decided he was bored, Kiro took Enri to the park. She sat down on a bench and he sat next to her. She liked being outside and Kiro just watched her. She noticed after a few minutes, though. Enri looked at him and he never took his eyes off her.
"Why are you looking at me like that?" she asked.
"I was just thinking. We've been friends for a long time and," he started, then paused.
"And…What?"
"I kinda like you."
"I like you too."
"No, I mean really like you."
"Oh," she breathed.
The atmosphere changed and Kiro felt really awkward. He stood up to leave but, Enri grabbed his wrist and he sat back down.
"I like you too," she repeated, hugging him.
He smiled and asked, "Do you want to go out this Friday?"
"I'd like that," she answered.
After a few hours, they both went home and things were uneventful for the rest of the day. Enri was happy though except for the pranking and immaturity from Shinju. She hated him and he hated her simple and she was thinking about ways she'd get even with him.
