A/N: This is just something t-o-t-a-l-l-y random that came to mind while studying for an exam… It's just some small, you could say, talk between the girls of my favorite pairings in Bleach and Naruto about their boys… I'm gonna do the guys too… Well, the pairings being in here would be HitsuKarin-SasuSaku, IchiHime-NaruHina and RenjiRuki-ShikaTema… If you don't like those pairings, I advise you to not read, but that's your decision. Again, this is totally random so don't even expect a plot…take it as if it's somewhat of an interview or something… Oh, I don't own nor Bleach, neither Naruto…
Karin and Sakura…
The black haired girl looked around her confused before her eyes falling on something coming her way. Acting out of instinct alone, she gave a startled shriek before ducking out of the way.
A moment later she heard someone running up to her and the hairs on her body stood up in anticipation of what was to come.
She noticed a pair of feet coming in her line of vision before she heard someone give a cry before bending down and helping her on her feet with unmentionable strength.
Without looking up to her almost murderer who turned out to be her savior as well, she started dusting her clothes. That's when she heard the startled and what seemed to be worried voice of a girl talking.
She looked up and came face to face with pink hair and green worried eyes.
"Oh, I'm so sorry… are you alright…? Oh, what have I done…? I didn't expect anyone to be there. I'm so sorry…"
"Nah… don't sweat it… What was that anyway…?"
The other girl looked her weirdly for a second but explained nonetheless.
"It's a kunai… I'm training to be more powerful and stop causing trouble for my teammates anymore, especially Sasuke-kun."
"Who is this Sasuke you are talking about…? And anyway, where am I…?"
Cue the weird look again.
"You're in Konohagakure no sato, or more specifically in the woods just outside the village. You're not from around here, are you…?"
"How could you tell…? Anyway, how do I get out of here…?"
Sarcasm was dripping her every word as she looked around in search for a possible exit. The other girl crossed her hands in front of her chest and looked at the girl in front of her in suspicion.
"Who are you anyway…?"
"Uh… Oh, name's Karin Kurosaki, but Karin is just fine. I tell it to Toshiro every time but he gets calling me Kurosaki, Kurosaki… Ba…"
She would have continued mumbling if she wasn't interrupted by the light giggle coming from the other girl.
Karin frowned at her as she turned to see her.
"What…?"
"Oh, nothing… Name's Sakura Haruno by the way but all my friends call me Sakura… 'Giggle'… Now, who is this Toshiro you're talking about that keeps calling you by your surname…?"
Karin flushed before turning away from the interrogating pink haired girl and starting mumbling something again.
"What was that Karin-chan…? I didn't quite catch it."
"I said… he is just a friend from back home. Nothing more, nothing less… At least I think we are friends… but, with all that is going on and how unemotional he is, it's hard to tell."
When Karin turned around after her speech, Sakura was looking at her with kind and understanding eyes.
"What is it now…?"
"I completely understand how you feel. The guy that you like doesn't seem to give you attention even though you try so hard for it. Yeah, I totally understand."
Karin flushed a little again, before denying everything in her usual manner.
"Who says I like him…? I just told you that he is just an almost friend. And how do you know how I'm supposed to be feeling anyway…?"
The suspicious look came from Karin this time, but Sakura wasn't faced by it not even a little. She just smiled politely before her eyes took a forlorn and faraway look like she wasn't even here anymore.
"You asked me before who Sasuke-kun was… well, he is the guy I liked since I was little and that turned out to love, but he was always so unemotional, like that Toshiro of yours, and wouldn't let anyone in. That's why I was training when you came here, so when I meet him again, he wouldn't leave me behind again or consider me useless."
A lone tear escaped her eyes as the memory of him leaving her all those years ago came to her mind.
Karin didn't know how to react and in panic tried to figure out what her sister would have done in a situation such as this. After a lot of thinking, she tentatively brought her hand on Sakura's shoulder as a piece of comfort.
The other girl giggled at the contact, but you could still distinguish the sadness in it, before she too brought a hand but to wipe away the tears that had made it out of her eyes without her wanting to.
"What am I doing…? I'm crying again for nothing. I got to stop doing that or I'll never be…"
"Stop… Don't do this to yourself. If you want to cry then cry… It's not nothing for you if you deemed it good enough to make you cry so it doesn't matter what everyone else thinks."
Sakura looked up to come face to face with grey eyes before smiling one genuine smile and after hugging close a startled Karin and letting her tears finally fall, while she found comfort in the awkward hug of the girl.
Laughing could be heard coming from inside the woods as the two girls were starting to make their way towards the village while telling storied about their loved ones.
"Ha… Did he really like amanato so much…? That's just like an old guy."
"I know… That's what I tell him every time I see him eating it… But, I guess considering his age, he kind of is an old guy but with his teenage-boy body you could hardly tell."
"That something I still can't get. How come he is dead but up and walking…?"
"Well, I told you that he is a shinigami, so that is his job."
"Hm… Anyway, you say that he doesn't talk much, does he…?"
"No… One time when I had just met him, he was answering my questions with grunts or one word answers, and let me tell you that it was somewhat annoying. Now I've gotten used to it though. What about you…?"
"Eh… just the same… He is so cool though even if he doesn't talk much and gets irritated by the smallest things…"
"Ha-ha… We should really make them meet sometime if it is possible… The exchange would be hilarious…"
