Author's Note: This is actually a Naruto fic. I actually (kinda) like. Compared to all the crappy fics I do. ANYWAY...this chapter is just a little foreshadowing for the next chapter. Please review guys, all I ask for. :)

CHAPTER ONE:
Best Friends

Sakura hugged her knees as she stared out into the large city. The story had agitated Sakura, princes and princesses, arranged marriages, how silly it all seemed. Sure, it was all just a story, but Sakura couldn't help but think about it. A princess being forced to marry someone whom she didn't love at a very young age, that's has to be the most unfair thing in the world...well, besides death. Sakura sighed and fell back. She watched the dancing leaves fall on the ground; she closed her eyes and inhaled. She didn't have time to relax recently, with all the work she had to do. This was definitely her most peaceful moment.

Sakura opened her eyes.

Peaceful time...over.

Sakura saw a pair of blue eyes, she screamed, and head butted the person causing him to fall over.

"OOWWW!!" Naruto exclaimed caressing his forehead. "Sakura Headbutt." He joked.

"Don't scare me like that, teme!" Sakura said sitting next to Naruto.

"Not my fault you got a big-ass forehead." Naruto joked tapping her forehead. She turned red and punched him on the shoulder.

"Meanie." Sakura muttered hugging her knees again.

"You know I'm kidding Sakura-Chan." Naruto said. A few minutes of peaceful silence, a breeze flew by, making the world seem easier than it was.

"So, what are you doing here?" Naruto spoke up.

"Just thinking about the story Kakashi-sensei said last night." Sakura said.

"You don't...believe that do you??" Naruto asked.

"Of course not, I was just thinking about it." Sakura paused. "It's really unfair, isn't it?"

"That ramen prices increased?" Naruto asked.

"No, is ramen all you think about?!" Sakura asked.

"You should know by now." Naruto grinned. Sakura laughed.

"Yeah, but what I mean is, having an arranged marriage, wedding someone whom you don't love, unfair right?"

"Sure, but like sensei said, if it was a great help for the country..." Naruto lingered.

Naruto did have a point.

"I guess." Sakura said.

"Hey, I just came here to check if you were sad." Naruto stood. "Your thirteenth birthday is tomorrow, and you don't want to be sad before your own birthday right?" Naruto asked.

"I guess." Sakura repeated.

"I gotta go, got stuff to do." Naruto said. Naruto turned around and started walking.

"Kay, see ya around, luv ya!" Sakura called without looking back. Naruto froze in his steps. It was something they said to each other regularly, but it had been bothering Naruto lately. Maybe he had more than friendship on his mind... No, no, NO! Sakura's my best friend, plus I doubt she feels the same way.

"L-luv you." Naruto hesitantly replied. Sakura looked back, it sounded as if Naruto had seen a ghost, but there was no trace of Naruto anywhere.
