Weird.
Summary: It is not like he likes her, it is more like he finds her intriguing thus interesting but only that and just because she is weird. There is all to it, not matter what stupid lies Himawari is saying.
A/n: I watched the second trailer of Boruto's movies and this happened. It deviates of Naruto Gaiden (but take some things of the manga) and has the own authors assumptions about the children's personality.
Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto and any of its characters, I don't make profit writing this and it had to be read with at their own discretion. Still don't reload in another site without my consent.
Prologue: Naruto's idea.
He knew Sarada Uchiha since he was a baby – or at least that was Mom always told him – it was thanks to Sarada's parents were his Father teammates and best friends, so his Father decided that their offspring must be friends.
"And Uchiha-san agreed?"
"Sakura-chan is very convincing"
But the thing was that he and Sarada were like water and oil, totally incompatible – much to the surprise of their parents, except Uchiha-san if his smirk towards his Father was a signal that he totally knew that it would be the outcome of that particular idea – still their Mothers didn't gave up and tried to nurture their friendship with a lot of playdates, which most of them finished in bloody faces and angry tears.
When his little sister came and begun to do more than eat, sleep and poop, it was Sarada and his respite of each other. Himawari just loved Sarada and the girl returned his imotou's love in tenfold, it was perfect, there it was the friendship that their parents hopped since the beginning. Uchiha-san just sighed and accepted his daughter and Himawari's friendship.
"She was like Hyuuga, thankfully"
"What was that bastard!"
His parents left him alone and he could finally made new friends without Sarada being there to scare them – the girls' cooties were dangerous you know – he was thrilled.
He still saw occasionally the girl playing in his house but at least now he was not obligated to play with her – thank you very much little sister – so he opted to go out to play when Sarada came to visit.
That is how a couple of years passed with Himawari and Sarada were best friends and Boruto was free of the pest.
Then the Shinobi Academy happened.
