AN: I don't own any of the characters. This is my first fanfic so bear with me a little.

Chapter 1

Naruto walked down the street hold a small bouquet of lilies in his hands. His mind was racing with thoughts as his hands shook.

'Maybe she'll say no again. Then what will I do?'

He stood in front of Sakura's door looking at the detailing in the door trying to distract him from changing his mind. He took a couple of breathes reaching out for the door knocking on it as hard as he could. As his hand returned to his side the door swung open making him jump a bit. Sakura stood in the doorway holding a bag of trash looking at him confused. She looked at the lilies in his hands and sighed lightly knowing what was to come.

'Oh Naruto when will you learn I'm not interested in you.'

He smiled slightly holding out the small bouquet, "these are for you Sakura. I was wondering if you wanted to go out on a date."

She looked at him with a stern face; pushing bouquet back against his chest.

"Naruto how many times do I have to tell you that I'm not interested in dating you? Sasuke was the only one for me and you have yet to bring him back. I'm sorry Naruto but I have to say no again"

He held the lilies to chest tightly looking down at the white flowers trying his best not to cry or show weakness. His blue eyes began to form small tears as he looked back at her turning away before running off not giving her a chance to speak. He ran as fast as possible; his heart pounding away as thoughts filled his head of being rejected again.

Hinata stood at the corner of the street having seen the whole rejection between Naruto and Sakura. Her heart breaking as Sakura went on with taking out her trash. She clasped the front of her jacket as tears filled her own eyes.

'Oh Naruto I hate seeing you get hurt. I wish you asked me out instead. I would've told you yes and we would be happy together. I want you to look at me the way you do her. Why won't you fall for me?'

She rubbed her eyes trying to get rid of all the tears. She cleaned herself up and went after him knowing just where he was going to head off to.
