'Demon/Inner Thinking'

Empathizing

Rays of light passed by the trees and hit the ground. The leafs danced along with the wind, and a young fox followed them happily. The kit had orange fur, and it's eyes were a piercing blue sky colour. Together, the leaves, the wind and the fox swayed through the forest until they reached a blossoming Sakura tree. An eagle was gracefully poised in one of its branches. The eagle had black eyes and black feathers. The fox approached the Sakura tree slowly but was threatened by a crack noise from the eagle. The fox hissed in response before disappearing into the forest again. Suddenly he heard some rustling behind him. The fox's instincts sharpened immediately and it turned around. There were two other foxes in front of him. One had dark blue fur and lavender gentle eyes. The younger one had white fur with black tips on its tail and startling violet eyes.

He shot up instantly. 'What was that all about? Why do I have keeping these strange dreams?' In fact lately he had been having the same dream every night and it was getting frustrating. The teenage blonde boy decided to shrug it off, yawned and got up. 'I'll think about it later. Now I have important things to do!' Still rubbing his eyes, he grabbed a towel that lied on the floor and went to the bathroom. He slipped to the tub and turned on the water letting it wake him up fully. 10 minutes later he walked out of his room already dressed and with his hitai-ate in his forehead. He then turned to the kitchen and searched for food in one of the shelves of the small counter.

'What am I going to eat today? Hmmm let's see...Ramen, ramen or ramen? Hmm tough decision but I think I'll have ramen!' He thought to himself grinning while he prepared his instant ramen. After eating, he tossed the ramen cup to the sink and walked out the door.

"Yosh! I have to go to the hospital now! I cannot let Sakura-chan waiting for me!" He said with a faint blush adorning his cheeks. It was no secret he held a crush for the pink head for a long time now. In fact, since he had returned he couldn't take his eyes off of her. She was so incredible to him. He knew she wouldn't stop loving Sasuke for him but all he needed was a chance. A chance to prove himself in front of her. Nevertheless she would still love the Uchiha. And he also knew that if she gave him a chance still her mind would be focused in the teme. All he wanted was some words of encouragement. A caress. A shoulder for him to cry on. Only if he knew he could have all this and much more if he wasn't so dense and if his eyes weren't so clouded by only one person. Haruno Sakura. He was afraid to get rejected but he would still do it. Today he would confess his love for his team mate.

'Stupid human...' Kyuubi mumbled following the blonde's trail of thoughts.

'Shut Up fox!' Naruto counterattacked immediately.

'If only you would listen to me from time to time we could sit back and enjoy the ride but nnnnnnooooo. I had to get stuck with the most stubborn kit of the whole world...' Naruto ignored the ramblings of the demon inside him and continued to walk down the streets. There weren't clouds in the sky and the sun shined intensely sending waves of heat through the entire village. He caught Ino leaving the flower shop so he approached her. They didn't know each other very well but since they walked to the same place every day as well as going together. So they accompanied each other and got to know a little better.

"Hey Ino! How are you doing?" Naruto shouted to her.

"Just fine and you" Ino smiled already used to the male's antics.

"I'm great." He replied softly.

"O-kaayyy." Ino stared at the boy suspiciously. They continued to walk through the streets and the silence seemed to get bigger.

'This isn't normal. He should be doing...well...hmm...he should be being him! Loudmouthed and obnoxious! I wonder what has gotten him so quiet. I mean he hasn't uttered a single word since about...10 minutes! That must be a new record! Something is definitely wrong. And I'm going to find out what it is'

"Naruto is there something wrong?" Ino said with a small tiny tinge of concern in her eyes.

"No. Why would you say that?" He asked dumbly.

"Because you haven't said anything for awhile. And that's not like you!"

"I'm just thinking about something..."

'He actually thinks! Wow! Now that's a shocking new. I thought his brain had got some vacations and never returned!' She remarked sarcastically in her head.

"And may I know what is it that you're thinking about?" Ino asked.

"No. That's a secret." He replied softly once again. 'But it shall be revealed soon...'

She pulled the curtains of the window. The room was immediately illuminated by the sun light. She walked out of her room and made her way outside. She was leaving the gates when she looked up. Her pale lavender eyes examined the sky. It looked like it was going to be a normal day filled with laughter and fun… The sun looked especially warm today. Somehow she knew her eyes were lying to her. As a shinobi, she was supposed to look underneath the beneath and her sharp senses told her otherwise her eyes….A storm was coming to Konoha. And it wasn't a normal one.

A/N: Hope you like! Please Read and Review. Ok so I made Ino a little nicer than usual well you just wait for the next chapter to see her return to her bossy personality. What's with these strange dreams and Naruto? Why did Ino went with Naruto to the Hospital?

Stay tuned to find out! Sorry for being so short, for grammatical or spelling mistakes or for repeating words too much.

P.S: This is my former fic 'Demons, Sorrow and Love' but re-written.

P.S.S: Don't worry this isn't a NaruSaku fic but a NaruHina fic. But in the beginning Naruto is still confused about his feelings. Dense idiot…
