The life of a ninja is always hard, always there is pain and the chance of death. There is always risk; there is always the chance of seeing the ones you love die. Why would we take this risk? Why would we put our life in danger? Why fight if we know that we might die? Why chance it? Why? When I could live in peace, in my big house? I think I do this because..well..because..!

Well I take the risk for my mom and dad, sasuke, sasukra, my friends, and my teammates, but mostly for the man I love! This man has always been there for me, he always protected me on and off the battle field. He's always been there in my times of need, and I'm there for him too. He has never let me down. He has always been there to cheer me up, when I' m down. His name is love! I' ve never told him how I felt. I have always felt that there's something between us. I would always look forward to our missions, so I could spend time with him. Whenever I hear his name being called, my heart would jump and I would look for him. When he would look at me, I would try not let it show, that my heart was racing. My heart will beat so hard, I thought if I ever got close to him, he would hear it. Love has to have more moments than beating hearts and looks! But what else could there be?

His name is sikaimaru. He is the smartest ninja that I know, he could beat our team captain in go, every time. He can pick out the smallest detail in battle. He' s brave, he is also very lazy, and he doesn' t like to worry about anything. He even thinks that I' m troublesome! He may be what other girls call boring and non attracting but he treats me good. Though he treats everyone we know the same. Sikaimaru doesn't know that I love him, and I think before my next mission, I should tell him how I fell. I really should tell him! After all I am a great catch! Any guy will be happy to have me, I' ve got money and everything anyone could want. I also have a great body, if I do say so myself. A slim waist, beautiful hair, tan skin, and legs that could go on forever. My fighting style is not bad either. I can even fight, you should of seen my fight with my rival. It even ended in a tie. At least I can defend myself.

so Yes, I should tell him! I am strong enough to handle whatever comes my way. Besides what is the worst that can happen? And Giggle, no girl in the leaf village, will like him. So I have the upper hand. I always get what I want! I' m not saying that theres something wrong with him, but he's always on missions, so girls really don' t notice him. Which is a great thing! Because I' ll be the first to ask him out. Now that I think about it, he should be back from his mission in a few hours. He has been on a lot of missions lately. I have barely seen him in the last couple of months. Our team captain has been taking him on all kinds of missions. the one that he's on now is a mission guarding a leader that has to get to the sand village. that is all that he would tell me. I think its some kind of pact treaty between the two villages or something. He also had said that this is an A rank mission too, so I know he will come back safe. After all There are others with him, that are higher rink ninjas and they can haled a little mission like that.

I get off in an hour, mom should be home now. Daddy is on a mission as well. So that left me to run the shop all day today. I can close in an hour. We didn' t have many customers today, there was one man that ordered roses for his wife, its sweet because they are having their first baby! They' re having a baby girl..so I give him the pink and purple roses. The man thanked me for the help, and I told him good luck!
