Note: This starts off as an HinaNaru and SasuSaku. I would tell you the rest of the pairs throughout the story, but I figure it'll be more fun for you guys to find out -. I do not own Naruto in any size, shape or form, jsyk. I am aware that my last attempt at making a suitable InuYasha FanFic didn't really make any progress. I honestly think it sucked.
I also wanna note that this FanFic is dedicated to my two bestest friends Gabby-L and JayLeeJ because they are so awesome. There are also some material in this FanFic from other animes besides Naruto (three-one is really obvious) so try to find it!
So, here is my first Naruto FanFic and I just hope you like it!! Puh-leez review and thankies! .
Sincerely
NinjaNeko
(I use to be NinjaKitty but I decided that NinjaNeko sounds loads better)
It was finally morning.
Hinata turned over to see her sleeping Naruto there beside her. She smiled, thinking about last night when Naruto sniffed a Ramen noodle up his nose and pulled it out of his throat.
He'll never grow up.
She sat up, drawing back the long bangs that fell on either side of her face behind her hair with her finger. She glanced over at the window. It was very small, but she could see the pink leaves of the cherry blossoms whips past her window. She pulled back the covers and stood up in their small room. She always dreamed of living in a fine house and raising a family...
Too bad they were stuck in a one-bedroom one-bathroom apartment.
She pulled her hair back into a ponytail and left to the kitchen in her baggy pajamas.
After a few frustrating attempts, she finally got the gas stove to cut on.
Sasuke sat on a bench in the park with a book in his hand. He was well concentrated and interested in the material he was reading. He was calm. With the fragrance of the cherry blossoms filling the air and the cool breeze lightly blowing on his dark hair. He felt relaxed...at peace...dancing with serenity...taking in the beauty of spring...
"Sa-su-ke!! Sweeetheart!!"
Then there was Sakura. He ignored her while his temple throbbed.
Oh, Sasuke, how handsome you look reading under the cherry blossoms. I can't believe you finally wanted to be with me. Oh, how I love you so...
"Hello, Sasuke dear.."
Sakura made herself comfortable next to him on the bench.
"You'll never guess what happened to me!"
"You're right. I probably won't." He replied dully.
I can't believe I decided to go out with her. I hate being nice.
"Hitsugaya FINALLY promoted me to receptionist!"
Sasuke closed his book and looked at her with perplexity written on his forehead.
"That's a promotion? What were you doing before?"
"Oh I was delivering coffee and filing.."
He stared at her for a minute, then finally shook his head.
"And right now, the company's not getting enough calls, but by the end of the month..."
"There will be more. A lot more."
She blinked.
"What?"
"…nothing."
"Well, is that all you wanted to tell me?"
"Well, no. I also want to know when you are moving in?"
"Moving in?!?"
"Why, of course!"
"What for?"
"What do you mean? We're lovers now and we need to live together!"
Sasuke sighed and looked down at the cobblestone trail.
"We can't live together…"
"Of course we can!"
"No, Sakura..."
"Well, why not? Oh, don't tell me. Is it because you're not ready? Well, that's okay then. Whenever you feel like it's the right time, just let me know."
"Sakura, it's never going to be the right time, because..."
"You're lease isn't up yet, is it?"
"Damnit, would you stop cutting me off!?" He was getting aggrivated. He turned to look at her with frustration in his eyes.
Sakura nervously smiled.
"Sorry…please continue."
"Look, Sakura. We can't live together, because we can't be together."
Sakura's jaw dropped.
"W-why?"
"Because, I don't love you. I never did."
"Then why did you ask me out?"
"I felt bad for leaving. I thought that we could make this work, but I just can't do it. I can't love you back. I'm sorry, but it's over."
Sasuke closed his eyes and stood up from the bench. Sakura grabbed onto his shirt.
"Sasuke! No! I won't lose you!!"
"You can't lose something you never had." Sasuke calmly replied as he pushed her hand away and began to walk down the trail leading out of the park with his hands in his pockets.
Sakura sat and watched.
She couldn't believe it.
Just like that, it was over.
Her vision blurred and her cheeks grew hot and wet with tears. She looked down at the bench noticed the book Sasuke was previously reading.
Death Note? What in the heck is a Death Note?
She picked up the book and held it to her chest.
Sasuke, even though you may not love me, I will always love you. Someday, you'll learn how to love me. I'm just not going to quit trying. No, never...
-Yawn!-
"Hey Hinata! What's cooking?"
"Oh, good morning Naruto. I'm just cooking breakfast."
Naruto took his seat at the small round table and picked up his knife and fork, drooling over the sweet scent that filled the kitchen.
Hinata landed a plate in front of his filled with fried potatoes, eggs, bacon, and buttered toast. Naruto blessed his food and immediately started to stuff his face.
"Do you like it, Naruto?"
"Mmff hmmff! Thnkss Hinmmntta!!"
She smiled and set up a plate for herself and sat beside him, eating quietly.
Burrrp!
"Done! Ha-ha!!"
"…five."
"FIVE! That was at least worth an EIGHT!"
"Sorry Naruto, but that burp didn't have enough R's."
"Tch, whatever."
He left the table and came back in his best suit and walked to the door.
"I'm off to work, Hinata! Later!"
Hinata sighed at the sound of the door slamming behind him. She collected the scraps of leftover food and served it to their cat, Buyo, and started to clean up the kitchen.
Sasuke walked down the street absentmindedly, ignoring the people who greeted him as they passed.
That's right. I'm fresh out of food. Especially tomatoes. I might as well stop by the store on my way…
He turned into the grocery store and made his way to the fruits and vegetables section. He stopped at the tomatoes, slightly disappointed.
There were only four left.
And none of them were remotely appetizing.
To his surprise, Hinata came around the bend pulling a wooden cart of fine tomatoes. Her mind was obviously somewhere else because she failed to notice Sasuke standing right there, but then again, he was different.
Instead of that ridiculous blue shirt with the cone neck and gay capris, he was wearing a white t-shirt and dark jeans. He gotten taller, and his hair grew slightly longer, but the chicken butt was still stuck on the back of his head.
It doesn't matter. It was still attractive.
Hinata was different too. She dropped the Eskimo coat and was originally wearing a violet top with black jeans and violet sandals, but had to wear an employee t-shirt to address to the dress code. Her hair was pulled up in a high ponytail and she wore her bangs over either side of her face.
Sasuke was impressed with how great she looked.
She took off the four ugly tomatoes and tossed them carelessly into the cart, then filed the fresh ripe ones neatly onto the shelf. Sasuke stood and simply watched her.
He took notice to her figure.
He never knew she had such a cute figure under that Eskimo coat.
Why the hell did he care?
Hinata sighed and turned around. She gasped and slightly jumped back. Sasuke caught her by the arm before she landed on the tomatoes.
"S-Sasuke…"
"Hey Hinata. When did you start working here?"
"Oh, um, hi. Um, a several months ago, when I moved in with Naruto. I wanted to help pay the rent…"
"Oh, you're with Naruto, eh? That's good then…"
"I heard that you went with Sakura…"
"Not anymore. We just broke up recently."
More like…ten minutes ago.
"Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't know."
"You couldn't have known…"
"Oh, okay. Well, um, I need to get back to work now. I'll see you around Sasuke."
She nervously smiled and took hold of the cart and pushed off.
Sasuke watched her as she left, until she was out of sight. He turned around and picked up several tomatoes.
Something about you Hinata…
Note: And there you go! Pleeze review!!!
