All characters belong to Kishimoto and his Naruto franchise, only the story is my idea. Read and review. Thank you
Grunts could be heard for miles in the forest. Two boys were fighting it out as usual. They were training all out. Hit after hit caused bruises and split lips or a bleeding eyebrow. They refuse to use weapons as doing so will result in someone's death.
Lying exhausted on the ground the one laughed and the other scowled, it ended in a draw again.
"Ne Sasuke we are always ending in draws, maybe we need new opponents."
"Hn, maybe. I'm out Naruto maybe next time." the raven head boy stood up to leave only to be surprised by a high squeal.
"Oh my gosh, so if you're like done fighting him, walk with me to the town, I'm like lost." the pink haired abomination plopped her lollipop back into her mouth. Both boys were stunned at her sudden loud appearance, they haven't seen her before.
"Sure" Sasuke started to walk with a babbling girl next to him.
She was new to town, moved here two days ago and being in awe of the forest decided to go exploring. Somehow she went to too far and lost her way. She thanked Sasuke when they arrived at town and went her own way. Sasuke was slightly surprised that she didn't go all fan girl over him.
Sasuke and this girl, who he later learned was named Sakura became friends, he enjoyed her weird way of telling a story. He introduced her to his group of friends. Naruto was annoyed by her superficial attitude, Hinata didn't know how to deal with the girl and the others just seemed to ignore her.
One afternoon after missions Hinata stumbled upon Sakura close the forest, the girl was staring at the sky and in her hands was a bouquet of flowers, white lilies, and a soft green rose that she did not recognize. There were tears running down her face. Hinata stayed a bit longer to look at her, with a swift motion that no one knew the girl had she ran into the forest, leaving Hinata to wonder who she truly is.
Sasuke had his suspicions about Sakura as well, he might not have voiced it like Hinata or Naruto. But he could tell she was acting most of the time. When they were walking alone once he heard her whisper that it was nice, after he inquired she smiled at him and without the preppy attitude she told him that she was glad to be able to have friends and she was starting to feel comfortable with them all. When they were alone she was soft spoken, serious and didn't pull the act with him, that was after he told her it was grating on his nerves, Sakura had started to invite him over for tea or coffee, and he had a rare opportunity to get to know her.
Naruto didn't like Sakura since they met, he had found it odd when she didn't make any sound when she found them the forest. And he absolutely didn't like her preppy attitude it was worse than Ino's and one of her was enough for the whole group. After telling everyone that maybe if they ignored her she'd go away, he was disappointed when Sasuke stood up for her, and Hinata was a bit uncertain about the decision.
A few months after their meeting, the four of them went on an adventure. Naruto claimed its so that Sasuke can atone for all his wrong doing. Sakura snickered in the background, she was glad to be on the move again. Hinata looked the at the pink head in disgust, how was a civilian going to assist them in this mission. She was a bit apprehensive when it came to Sakura, Hinata got the feeling that this girl was hiding something, she had seen past her simple act, and to Hinata Sakura's green eyes held a lot of secrets.
