The Broken Promise

A/N: I thought I'd just say sorry in advance for the poor writing. This story was written some time ago and I've only just gotten around to putting it up as I found it on one of my old memory sticks, (Not that I'm much better at writing now). This is the first of four chapters that have already been written. If you'd like me to upload the rest please tell me what you think of this chapter. If after I've uploaded all four existing chapters and I get a good response, then I'll continue writing this story, and maybe in the future I might decided to make a revised version.

Oh, and if you've read my other story 'Screw Destiny,' The next chapter should be up shortly, I'm already half way through writing it, I'm putting all my effort into that story. Also, I just thought I'd let you know that I have three more stories on the go, two of which being an 'Avengers' story and the other being 'Supernatural.' If you're interested there's more information about them on my profile… Anyway, onto the story; enjoy.

Chapter 1:

New Born Friendship

Naruto had just got away from the hustle and bustle of moving. He was use to it though, his family moved away a lot because his father's job was relocated quite often. This was why he never made any friends and when he did it never lasted long as he usually had to move away not long after the friendship had started. So he never really bothered trying to make friends with anyone. What was the point when he knew he was just going to move again?

After sitting on the swing for a surprisingly long time, the blonde started to get bored. He was never really one for staying still for a prolonged period of time.

The blonde was just about to get up and go back home when someone approached him. He looked up suspiciously to see a boy with stunning oxy eyes and silky raven hair that had a hint of blue. The two of them just stared at one another for a while before the raven spoke up.

"I've never seen you around here before!" The raven said looking at Naruto with a scowl on his young face. Naruto looked back at the raven with the same expression before realizing what the raven had just said.

"Yeah, I only just moved here."

"Hn…!"

Naruto looked at the raven weirdly as he tried to figure out what the boy meant by "Hn."

"What's your name?" Sasuke asked, but the look on his face made it look like he didn't really care. On the inside though the raven was curious, this blonde just sparked his interest, which was new for the 12 year old.

"Naruto, Naruto Uzumaki." Naruto announced eagerly before asking in return…

"What's your name?"

"Sasuke Uchiha."

Once they'd exchanged names, there was an awkward atmosphere present between the two of them. Even though the awkwardness was suffocating, neither of them wanted to leave so early. They both could feel this unknown bond that seems to be between them even though they'd only just meet.

"So… When did you move here?" The Uchiha said getting rid of the once present atmosphere.

"Today…!"

"Where…?"

"What?"

Sasuke just rolled his eyes.

"Where do you live?"

"Why do you want to know?" Naruto questioned suspiciously. Why did a total stranger want to know where he lived? It wasn't something you got asked everyday from someone you barely knew.

"I'm only trying to make conversation."

"Oh… okay."

The awkward atmosphere returned leaving them both in silence.

"Do you want to hang out together?" The raven suggested suddenly. As soon as the words had escaped from the Uchiha's lips a red hue emerged on his cheeks.

"Really…?" Naruto asked in surprise, no one had ever asked him if he wanted to play; it was always him.

"Yeah…!" It was obvious the raven was starting to get annoyed.

"Um… okay." With that said Naruto and Sasuke walked away from the swing. The rest of the day the two hung out until it started to get dark when they walked back to the swing where they'd met earlier that day. "Let's be friends." Naruto randomly shouted. He'd had so much fun with Sasuke; more fun then he'd had in a long time.

"Sure." The raven answered nervously, he'd never really had a proper friend. Don't get him wrong he had friends, it's just he never really got along with any of them like he did the blonde.

"Okay, so I'll see you tomorrow?" The blonde asked, not entirely sure on what the ravens answer would be.

"Yeah sure, let's meet here again tomorrow; is that okay with you?"

"Yeah, bye"

"Bye."

After that night the two played together nearly everyday till late in the evening, but everyone knows: nothing good lasts forever…
