I smiled running a hand through my firey red locks and peered over at my best friend. It was friday and the blonde had fallen asleep once again in class and was being scolded. Me and Naruto had been friends since elementry school, at that time he was constantly bullied.
~FLASHBACK~
Naruto sat in his usual place at recess which was on a swing, since no one would play with him and often ignored him. I stared at him in sympathy holding my favorite bright red ball "Mabye i should ask him to play" I thought... "Look it's that uzumaki kid" "He's so stupid, Iruka-sensei always has to redo our lessons because of him-" A Chubby boy sneered "He is nothing like 'Sasuke-kun' " A girl purred. The first boy smirked " lets throw rocks at him" I watched as they picked up some pebbles and chucked them at Naruto. He had gotten used to the treatment. " LEAVE HIM ALONE" I glared at them catching the kids off gaurd. " And if we don-" The boy then realised who he was talking to. I was the daughter of Tachibana Ryuu, the successor of the famous Tachibana family which specialized in martial arts and weaponry. Immediatly the kids ran away apoligizing. I sighed and put on a pleasant smile " So, do you want to play with me" I asked. He stared up at me in disbelief.
Though now he was one of the popular kids...
~END FLASHBACK~
Sasuke was also one of my best friends. He didn't see me as one of his obsessed fangirls. At first i hated Sasuke though, but i didn't know him well at that time.
The bell rang signalling the end of todays school. " So Tora, me, Sasuke, Sakura, Kiba, Shikamaru, and Rock lee are going to ichiraku's for ramen, You coming?
"Of course i'm coming"! "Oh and Gaara is coming too " He winked at me. He knew that I had a crush on the red head for a while now and just mentioning him would make me blush.
AT ICHIRAKU"S
I slurped my 5th bowl of Chicken flavored Ramen and watched as Naruto joked around while inhaling his 23th bowl of ramen, I giggled and turned my attention to Gaara. He was so cute as he ignored my loud hiperactive friend who bothered him with questions about why he didn't have a girlfriend.
" Why do you even like him anyway" Sasuke asked me in monotone. " What do you mean, Gaara is so sexy with his cool and calm attitude and his awesome kanji symbol on his forhead... " By now Sasuke was giving me weird looks as I trailed off fantasizing about Gaara while hyperventilating.
"TORA!" Naruto called erasing me from my thoughts. " Ugh, What" I groaned " Were going to the beach this weekend and you must go" "Naruto, I was supposed attend this meeting saturday-" "AWW! Come on Tora, Gaara going to be there too, you know" He smirked.
" Well when you put it that way..." I again began fantasizing about Gaara shirtless in swimming trunks. " Um Tora, your drooling...ANWAYS are you coming?" It was no use denying Naruto, i agreed anyway. This is my chance to be with Gaara!
