Chapter 2

Here's Chapter 2 Hope you like it! Please read and review :] I don't own Naruto!

My heart was pounding so hard it felt as though it might thump right out of my chest. My mind was racing what in the world was I doing? I shook my head smacking into his in the process. He fell backwards clutching his forehead. "O-Oh my god! A-Are you okay N-Naruto?" I said in panic "I'm s-so s-sorry!" he got to his feet covering a large bump the size of a small egg. He blushed "I'm fine really!" I grabbed his arm "N-No you're not l-let me g-get you some i-ice!" I opened the door hitting Kiba who must have heard all the commotion. "Damn!" he yelled clutching his nose. Oh carp what was wrong with me? I thought to myself. "I'm s-so sorry K-Kiba are you a-alright does it h-hurt!" "I'm fine don't worry baby!" he said smiling a trickle of blood beginning to flow from his nose. Damn men these days always pretending to be tough and macho. I grabbed his arm with my other hand and ran both him and Naruto to the kitchen and sat them down at the table. I sprinted to the newly installed freezer and grabbed an Ice pack and a giant bunch of paper towels. I gave Naruto the ice pack "Press this on your head okay?" he nodded and grabbed the cold package. I handed Kiba the paper towels he grabbed them with his bloody hands his head held back. I walked him over to the sink pulling his arm I held the towels to his nose as he washed his hands.

I looked to Naruto his gaze focused on me our eyes meeting I once again remembered our high school days all the days we spent together and how much I had loved him I never wanted to be with anyone else back then. I saw his gaze turn to Kiba and me together. He sighed" I better get going" he said removing the icepack from his head. "A-Are you s-sure you're o-okay?" Kiba looked at me puzzled my sudden stuttering making him confused. Naruto smiled his big goofy smile putting a hand behind his head "Yeah I'll be ok and don't worry!" I smiled at him "Hey wait!" he said he ran out the door picked up my two bags of groceries and dropped them steadily on the counter. I smiled at him "Lets catch up soon ok?" he said as he shut the door.

I stared at it for a few seconds a part of me longing for his return. Then I looked up at Kiba his eyes focused on me "Who was that guy?" he said a hint of jealousy in his voice. "That's Naruto Uzumaki our new neighbor," I said he looked at me wide eyed "You mean your ex-boyfriend Naruto Uzumaki? The one you dated in high school? The same one that left you and went to America?" he said in shock I nodded his eyes still wide looking at me examining my every movement as I took his bloody tissues and threw them out. "So how's your nose? Does it hurt really bad?" no response his eyes still focused on me I sighed putting my arms around him "Will you stop! We dated 5 years ago it's no big deal now!" I said lying to myself. He pulled me into his strong arms and kissed me. I sighed and took out the jar of tomato sauce and a box of rigatonis and began cooking.

The weekend came and his bags were all packed along with lots of sandwiches and chips for him and his friend. He was heading out camping with his friends Shino, Shikamaru, Choji, and of course Akamaru. He turned to me his bags on his shoulders and picked me up into his arms and pulled me tight then kissed me passionately. "I'll miss you!" I said he kissed me once more "I'll miss you more!" I patted Akamaru who licked me in response. I sighed as they walked out the door this was gonna be a lonely 4 days. I cleaned the house then decided some more shopping needed to be done. I took my usual path down to the supermarket the sun warming me in my strapless sun dress. To my surprise the store wasn't that busy I mean it was a Friday afternoon after all.

I walked back to the apartment in my own little world. But when I reached the door there he was coming out of his. "Hey!" he said smiling at me "H-Hi N-Naruto." Stop I told myself you don't stutter anymore. I regained my composure, "How you doing?" he said putting his hand behind his head. "I'm good how are you?" "Good" he said smiling "Hey I was wondering uhh can I take you to dinner … I mean umm you and your boyfriend of course…." He said flustered. He was looking at me his eyes focusing on me I felt my face get hot. "Um… well Kibas away this weekend … but we could go I guess..." I knew that I should have had said no, but I knew in my heart I didn't want to I wanted to go to dinner with him. He smiled his cheeks turning red. "What time should I pick you up?"
