Love can be crazy sometimes.

That was the conclusion Sarada arrived at while waiting for Sumire to show up. Sumire Kakei as class rep probably wanted to meet with her, since she was absent from school due to her nasty cold.

"Uwahahah, sorry I'm late!" Sumire said trying to catch her breath. Sarada just shrugged it off as something normal and decided to wait for her friend to talk about 'something important' she mentioned to her before.

"So, what did you want to tell me? You seem really nervous for some reason." Sarada wanted just go straight to the point and watch her favourite drama series this afternoon.

"I love Boruto, not as a friend, but a guy I'm c-crushing on!" Sumire shouted and all the children having fun at the playground looked in her direction, probably startled by her sudden loud outburst.

Love can be crazy sometimes.

Sarada heart ached to know that one of her closest friends developed feelings for her childhood friend. The worst part of it was that she had a crush on this so-called childhood friend too.

The only way Sarada knew how to respond to Sumire was silence. Awkward silence to be precise.

"It's Sarada and Sumire, ya know! I knew that I could see them standing in the middle of the playground, Shikadai. " Boruto said pointing in their direction and Sarada response to Sumire words didn't come out at all.

Spending the whole day with Shikadai, Boruto and Sumire afterwards made Sarada unable to say anything.

Love is crazy and the whole situation started to be too much complicated for Sarada's liking. Being a teenager in love was complicated as well, especially when your friend loves the same guy you love.

Sarada sighed. She knew it was a selfish thing to do, but she planned to confess her feelings to Boruto. In that way, if he rejects her she will support Sumire love with everything she got to offer.


Monday:

11:00 AM, School Rooftop:

Boruto was taking a nap at the school rooftop without Shikadai today. It was a really relaxing feeling to be alone sometimes. Especially when you could feel a nice gentle breeze being here.

"So you were hiding here, Boruto?" He opened his eyes after hearing a familiar voice.

"Sarada," Boruto said like it was the most normal thing in the world. After all, he spends with her half of his life and knew her better than what was in the pockets of his jacket.

"Taking a nap? You shouldn't sleep during the school hours." Sarada started to nag him, but it made Boruto just smile in response. He was used to her nagging.

"Yeah, yeah, I know. It's rare to see you climbing up here, ya know?" Boruto looked in her direction and noticed she was wearing more fancy clothes today. It was visible since the uniforms weren't mandatory in the school they attended.

"Hey, it's not that rare to see me here. I'm dragging you out from here quite often." Sarada responded, but averted her gaze from him.

"What's up, Sarada? Spill it out." He confronted her seeing that something was strange in her behaviour. Sarada wasn't usually wearing a fancy pink dress and putting the white flowers in her black hair. Did she have a date with someone? Boruto felt a pang of jealousy in his heart.

"I… You see…" Sarada couldn't gather her thoughts to say something to Boruto properly. Boruto's blue eyes were distracting her from making a smooth love confession, which she planned out yesterday. Truth to be told it was unfair of for her to do it knowing Sumire loved Boruto too.

Sometimes love is crazy.

"Spill it out now, ya know? School break will finish soon." Boruto told her to hurry up with whatever Sarada wanted to tell him.

"I love you," Sarada whispered and felt like she lost the ability to breathe. Boruto widened his blue eyes in the disbelief.

Sarada was joking, right? It was probably a dare given to her by Mitsuki or something like that. If it was a dare from Mitsuki, Boruto planned to punch him in the face for it.

"Are you joking? Or is it a dare from Mitsuki, Sarada?" Boruto asked her seriously.

"No, I'm not joking or doing a dare from Mitsuki! I love you and I mean it, you moron!" Sarada shouted and on her cheeks appeared a cute blush.

"You love me?" It was all he could say in his dumbfounded state.

"I-I do, but you don't need to answer me now! S-see you later!" After those words, Sarada rushed out to the door and disappeared before Boruto had the chance to give her his answer.

Sarada Uchiha confessed that she loved him. Boruto felt shocked about this discovery since he didn't exactly think Sarada would confess her love to a guy first. But she did and the guy she confessed to was him.


Monday:

17:00 PM, Amusement park:

He looked for Sarada all day after he heard her confession. Boruto got the tickets to an amusement park from Shikadai and wanted to respond to Sarada's confession there.

"What are you doing? Your expression is so gloomy, B-o-r-u-t-o!" Sumire appeared behind him like a real ninja. That part of her was scary as hell, she was a good actress too from what he knew.

"I was looking for Sarada, ya know. I need to do something with the additional ticket I have to an amusement park." Boruto tried to hide a reason why he really searched for Sarada.

"If you can't find her and need someone to go with you I'm up for it!" Sumire sang those words cheerfully. Boruto couldn't refuse her after she used on him a puppy-dog-eyes, he would feel bad for not taking Sumire to the amusement park with him.

That's how Boruto ended up alone with Sumire in the amusement park. Initially, he planned to invite Sarada, but he couldn't find her anywhere after her confession.

To get his mind off from things Boruto followed Sumire on the rides she picked while admiring her purple dress that maybe wasn't fancy, but nicely contrasted with her porcelain skin.

Love confessions are awkward, but this situation was awkward as well.

"Boruto, can we go on the Ferris Wheel?" Sumire asked and Boruto nodded in response, still lost in his thoughts. They both showed their tickets and enjoyed the views of the city sitting in the Ferris wheel.

Being alone with Sumire was awkward for the blond, especially after Sarada's love confession a while ago. Boruto had a bad feeling about staying with Sumire alone and it turned out he was right

"Boruto, I love you," Sumire confessed to him and her pretty purple eyes were shining. This time Boruto decided not to mess it up and ask if it was a joke that Sumire is pulling on him.

"You do?" Boruto gulped asking this question again during this day. Why was he so suddenly involved in a messy love triangle?!

"I do, but don't worry I'm willing to give you time for a response! The ride ended, so see you around tomorrow!" Sumire waved to him and walked away, while Boruto hold in the urge to scream in how his love life turned out to be so complicated.

"Why the hell both Sarada and Sumire walked away before I responded to their respective confessions?!" Boruto shouted throughout entire amusement park feeling frustration dawning upon him.

He just hoped that a third girl doesn't confess his love for him today. Otherwise, he will go crazy.

But matters of love are crazy.


Thursday:

15:00 PM, After School:

"I confessed to Boruto." Sarada and Sumire both said in unison.

"EHHH?!" Sumire hearing that couldn't contain her surprise. Sarada looked away.

"I'm sorry, Sumire. I didn't have a chance to tell you, but I love Boruto as well." Sarada felt really bad about the whole situation.

"I knew from the start you did, you know?" Sumire answered.

"You did?!" Sarada couldn't help but ask. Was it that obvious she loved Boruto?! If it was why Sumire told her she loved him too? And if it was that clear, so why did Boruto think her confession was a joke?

"Yup, but I never got any chance to confirm your feelings for Boruto and I felt bad about it after my love confession. The only thing I didn't expect was that you would confess to him as well." Sumire explained with a smile on her face.

"Did you get an answer from him?" Sarada bit her lips feelings nervous about initiating this subject.

"No. I assume you didn't get the answer as well?" Sumire asked and Sarada shook her head in the disappointment.

"Should we chase Boruto in order for him to give us the answer?" Sarada proposed while the other girl gave her a small nod.

They both started to search for Boruto to clear up the whole messy situation once and for all.


Boruto panicked seeing both Sumire and Sarada searching for him. He would be killed by them! They plan to take an act of revenge on him for not responding to their respective love confessions.

Boruto Uzumaki was officially doomed. From now on he would die and turn into a ghost. It was over! He would be a victim of a messy love triangle. They found him.

Okay, maybe he was a little melodramatic. Sarada wouldn't kill him and Sumire was one of the nicest girls he had a chance to meet.

"Here you are, Boruto!" Sarada sighed and Sumire warmly smiled.

"Yo!" Boruto muttered still being in a state of panic.

"I talked with Sarada and it turned out you didn't answer either her or me. It's simple really. If you love one of us… You should give the answer here." Sumire expressed her determination. In other words, it was a roundabout way to tell him he must choose between them. Boruto felt real discomfort knowing this fact. He didn't want to hurt their feelings since they were both his close friends.

"S-SSS," Boruto couldn't choose between them at all! Maybe it was the reason why he could say just the first letter of their names.

"We can't know, which one of us do you refer to if the only thing you say is the letter 'S'!" Sarada started to be impatient, however, Boruto only wanted to get away from both her and Sumire at this moment.

Why they ganged up together instead of having a catfight over him between each other?! Life would be much easier if that would be the case.

"But if I choose the one the other will end up hurt, right?!" Boruto couldn't help, but say this words in his panic.

"Uwawawah! Don't worry we don't stop being friends just because you reject the other one. If that would happen my friendship with Sarada isn't the real friendship." Sumire tried to calm him down and encourage Bortuo to give them the answer.

It didn't help him to calm down at all. They were crazy in expecting him to give them an answer right off the bat.

"Boruto if you don't love either Sumire or me you should just tell us. We don't be angry at you. After all, we can't choose how you feel." Sarada looked down on the floor feeling guilty.

However, Boruto knew how he would answer from the start. Ha, he knew how to answer after Sarada confessed her love to him. The choice was obvious, but he was afraid of hurting Sumire's feelings.

He took a few breaths in and out to calm down.

"I'm so sorry, Sumire! You're an amazing girl, but I always loved Sarada, ya know?"

Sarada was shocked hearing his words, unlike Sumire that probably predicted how he would answer.

Sumire directed to him just a sad smile when Sarada started crying from overwhelming her happiness.

"I feel so happy!" Sarada said through her tears.

"Congratulations, Boruto! You rejected me, but I can always snatch Sarada from you when you aren't looking." Sumire words scared Boruto who hugged Sarada in an overprotective manner.

"That won't happen, Sumire! Stay away from my new girlfriend, kay." Boruto stated heavily blushing. Sumire laughed at him saying to Sarada she got a really cute boyfriend.

"By the way, Boruto. Should we introduce Mitsuki to Sumire?" Sarada asked feeling happy from the bottom of her heart.

"Yeah, we totally should! I think they would get along with each other really well." Boruto winked to Sumire in a mysterious way, while Sumire remained confused about the person they mentioned.

Love can be sometimes crazy, but a crazy love isn't that bad from time to time.
