*Sasuke and Naruto are getting back to Selena's house and the stop at a curb. It's pretty chilly outside so they are dressed warmly.*

Naruto: *while thinking he looks down and scuffs his feet against the icy sidewalk* Man...you're the luckiest guy, Sasuke.

Sasuke: *turns to Naruto with a questioning look*

Naruto: I mean...you got it all...looks, charm, flair, skill.....everything a guy needs to impress...

Sasuke: I wouldn't say I'm any luckier than you.

Naruto:...no...you are. Every girl seems to like you at one point or another...Sakura still hasn't even--

Sasuke: This is about Sakura?

Naruto: I dunno...I'm just babbling...

Sasuke: Do you love her?

Naruto: *surprised* Well, i've always really liked her, but--

Sasuke: I know that. She knows that. Everybody knows that.

Naruto: *gaze shifts back down again*...yeah...I guess it's pretty obvious...do you think she'll ever...?

Sasuke: *gazing down the street absent-mindedly* Naruto...Sakura loves you but,....I don't think it's in a way much different than how Risa loves you...

Naruto:..........

Sasu: And I...don't know whether that'll change or not. As long as I'm around...

Naru: Heh...yeah. She really does care about you huh, Sasuke? *looks up to him with a half sad smirk.*

Sasu: *looks to floor*

Naru: ...I, I get it though. I guess it's not meant to be...*looks down again.*

Sasu:...you can never tell with girls but, who knows?

Naru:...So you think I should try someone else? I don't know if I could but,....I can try to move on...

Sasu: Hm. Maybe. There are alot of girls out there, Naruto, you can't go your whole life thinking you won't be loved...

Naru: *looks back at Sasuke*

Sasu: *sighs* Maybe it would be best if you moved on....
