I DO NOT OWN NARUTO!
Chapter 2
Naruto POV:
I woke up the next day to a bird pecking my window. I always feed them in the mornings because they are really beautiful to see, and I want them to visit more often. This time it was a blue jay. I left my small home(really it's a shack) to go to the shed were I kept the birdfeed. As soon as I walked back outside all the birds flooded me chirping happily. I called this whole thing a Chidori because it sounded like a thousand chirping birds. Afterwards I went to the park to meet up with Konohamaru. Today I decided to wear black capris with chains and a plain light blue top and the necklace Tsunade gave me. I also grabbed my fox mask for later. At the park I glanced around, but didn't see Konohamaru or his friends. Sitting on the swing I put my mask on and waited. It was a kitsune mask with small slits for my eyes and a maniacal/insane/creepy smile across the bottom. All white, black and orange. Across from me were children playing on the playground and having fun. When I was little I had no friends because I am an orphan and therefore scum…Since I didn't have friends I played with a soccer ball some kid left at the playground. It was my prized possession. The first toy that I ever had. I still have it today. I glanced up again and noticed Konohamaru and his friends walking towards me.
"Hey Kyubbi! Ready to play some soccer?" He waved to me.
"You bet. Prepare to bite the dust!"
"You sure this is him? He doesn't seem to good to me." This must be that Moegi girl I had heard about.
"I promise. He is AWESOME! And he only plays for friends, which I am. But don't ask him to take his mask off….he wont. Now that I think about it I don't even know what he looks like. But that doesn't matter, you'll see."
"Well if you say so….lets play some soccer!"
"Yeah!"
The game began with Konohamaru and his friends teaming up against me. Konohamaru as a lead started to charge towards my goal, but I intercepted and kicked the ball away from him before he could react. I shot forward like a bullet towards the ball and twirled around Moegi to score a goal. Their friend Udon was sneezing and not paying attention, so it was rather easy. Score one for me. We started again with me possessing the ball, and I started kicked it to the left to use it as bait. Moegi ran for the ball supposed destination, but at the last second I reversed my foot and ran forward. Konohamaru charged towards me and we intercepted. He attempted to kick the ball from my feet but I kicked it up in the air and jumped. In the air I did a flip kick and it shot into the goal. We played for a while more, but the result was the same. Soon enough a crowd had gathered. Among them was Gai-sensei but I hadn't noticed yet. Instead I was charging towards their goal again. No one could see, but I was smiling under my mask. I loved the feel of the grass and soccer ball on my bare feet. It just felt so right. We took a water break and people began to ask if they could play to. We all agreed but they had to join Konohamaru's team and not mine. About 9 people were on their team versus just me. Instead of fancy flips and one-on-one battles for the ball, I focused in increasing my speed. The only way I could get a goal and not risk injury was to dodge people. Soon enough I became a blur and could only be seen going from left to right dancing around people who tried to get the ball. It was a great game. After about half an hour later they got tired and we quit playing.
"Nice game, Kyubbi! I guess we couldn't win after all."
"Hehe! Well I had fun. I have business to do so I'll see you guys later ok?"
"Totally! Ja Ne."
I turned around only to find Gai-sensei screaming about the Flames Of Youth. The assistant coach with Kakashi. He was dressed in a green spandex monstrosity with orange leg and arm warmers. I had to shield my eyes from his 'youthful radiance'
"YOUNG ONE! THAT WAS SUCH A YOUTHFULL GAME! PLEASE JOIN OUR YOUTHFULL SOCCER TEAM AT KONOHA HIGH SCHOOL!"
"Ummmm…I'm sorry but I don't play for any team. I only play for friends, no one team. I like the fun, not seriousness."
"BUT OUR TEAM IS THEIR FOR FUN. ESPECIALLY MY PUPIL LEE! I'M SURE YOU WOULD ENJOY IT KYUBBI!"
"No thanks! Bye." I then proceeded to run away as fast as I could, and that looked like I vanished. The last thing I heard was "TRULLY YOUTHFULL SPEED! YOSH, I WILL CONVINCE YOU TO JOIN US!"
_Monday_
It was Monday. Time for school, but I hadn't woken up yet. Unfortunately my alarm clock didn't survive the last hit I gave it. I woke up an hour late and ran around my house trying to get ready. I shoved some ramen into my bag and ran out the door. It took me about 10 minutes to get to school running at my top speed. After I reached the gate I realized it was closed. Glancing around it seemed safe so I simply leaped over it. I bypassed my locker and ran straight to my classroom. Shoving open the door I pretended to pant and breathe harder to make it seem like I was tired from running. Everyone turned to look at my disheveled appearance, and I absentmindedly scratched my head and stuttered an apology. Luckily since I was new the teacher let me off with a warning, so I walked to the back of the classroom to where Sasuke sat and sat down. A little while later I received a note. Hey. Why are you late? Everything ok? I looked over to Sasuke to see him staring out the window. I wrote back: Yeah, everything's cool. Just slept in cause my alarm broke. Did I miss anything?
No. You're good. We just went over quadratic equations. A resounding THUD! was heard throughout the class, from my head hitting the desk.
Ughh! That sucks! I don't understand that at all! Hey….do you read manga? Like bleach and stuff?
Yeah. You do to? That's awesome! One time…
By the end of class we learned a lot about each other that other people would kill to know. The whole time he and I kept getting more attracted to one another. We were just too compatible. My sunny personality contrasted his aloof one to mellow each other out. We were going to meet up again at lunch in the soccer club room. This time they were going to watch an old game between them and the sound, their arch rivals. Their coach was Kabuto who was kinda creepy, but their principle was worse. I couldn't shake the bad vibe I got from him. He reminded me of a snake, and I swear he was a pedophile. Apparently he's been trying to recruit Sasuke for their team. I got shivers just thinking about what 'special training' he wanted to give Sasuke. That Orochimaru was a creepy creepy man/snake….thing!
After that class I went to my next one with Sakura, Ino and Hinata.
Sakura was a beauty for sure. She was 5'3" with lean muscles from cheerleading. Her hair was bubblegum pink, but wasn't dyed surprisingly. I asked her and she got a rage mark on her head and flipped out saying that it was 'totally natural!' Next to her hair her emerald green eyes stood out under her, slightly-larger-than-normal, forehead. They were very bright and brimmed with happiness. If I had to describe her personality it would be confident, optimistic and strong. Not just mentally, but physically too. Some guy was picking on Hinata and she punched him so hard there was a crater in the wall. I learned it best not to mess around with her. Also, she used to be a Sasuke fan-girl (president of the club!) but that changed when she found her current boyfriend, Sai. I hadn't met him yet but from what I heard, he sounded sly, sarcastic, flirtatious, and apparently he loves art.
Ino was a platinum blonde, also natural. With sharp blue eyes that made it seem like she could read your mind. At the same height as Sakura, her long hair was kept in a ponytail and reached the bottom of her back. I cant imagine the amount of time it took to brush and straighten it! Her and Sakura had been best friends since elementary and only stopped being friends for a rivalry over Sasuke. Once Sakura got a boyfriend though the became friends again. She became a cheerleader for the soccer team. Her only problem was the anorexia…she was convinced that she was fat and needed to diet. She was wrong, but I didn't know what to say to change her mind.
Hinata was rather cute. She had light blue hair cut short (that again was natural! Go figure.) and pale eyes that looked like they were missing pupils. At first I thought she was blind, but it turns out that it was simply a family trait and she could see better than most people could. Shorter than the others at 5'1" she made up for it in being filled out. She had an hourglass shape that she tried to hide with baggy clothes and coats. When ever she talks she stutters and blushes while twiddling her fingers. I don't know why, but it seemed to fit her personality. Unlike most of the female population in the school, she didn't have a Sasuke fan-girl problem. They were simply acquaintances. That was probably why they were friends.
"H-hi Naruto-kun!"
"Hey Hinata-Chan!" She blushed even more.
"Yo, Naruto we heard you were late this morning." (sakura)
"Yeah. I kinda broke my alarm clock and slept in for an hour. Hahaha"
"You are such a baka! What did the sensei say to you?"
"He said it was ok, but not to let it happen again. I had to run to get here though~ I was so tired!" I complained as we reached our desks.
"W-would y-you like some water, N-Naruto-kun?"
"Sure, thanks Hinata!" I smiled...and she fainted…Don't worry! She woke up after10 seconds and ran to get some water.
"So how was everyone's weekends?" (Hinata gave me some water)
"Mine was awesome! Sai and I went to the park and he painted the sunset for me. And we went to dinner at Choji's family's restaurant. It was so good and-"
"Ewww! Choji is so gross. He needs to diet like me." Ino cut in.
"For the last time Ino….YOU ARENT FAT!" I exploded.
"Its ok. I know I am. You don't have to lie. Otherwise Sasuke would love me."
"Ummmm. Ino? I have a theory on that. I think Sasuke is gay."
…silence….
"WHAT! You gotta be kidding me right? There is no way he's gay. I mean he hasn't even shown any interest in guys."
"Ino is r-right S-s-sakura. That wouldn't make any s-sense."
"Well he hasn't shown any interest in girl either! I mean there is no way a straight single guy has awesome fashion sense, tries to look nice and is just that cool! And you both know it."
"No! He isn't! My Sasuke-kun loves me. I know he does. He's just afraid to show it."
"G-girls calm down." The amount of killing intent made even me stutter.
"Only as soon as Forehead/Ino-pig admits she's wrong!" Their simultaneous answer only made them glare more. Luckily before anything happened the sensei walked in and started class. All through class I thought about Sakura's comment. Could it be true? Do I have a chance? Guess I'll have to find out. But first the prank with Kiba. Mwahahaha!
Author's note: Sorry this was so short! I bet you all wanna know what the prank is. Well I'm not gonna say. Mwahahaha! I'm evil. Please review and thanks for the reviews if you already made some. XD Prank time Yayyyy!
P.S. I need ideas to make Naruto and Sasuke closer
