I do not own Naruto or any of the characters.

Recap:

"He IS the enemy Saks." Naruto hissed back.

End of Recap

"What are you talking about?" I asked narrowing my eyes.
"You just don't get it do you Sakura.. He's the enemy. We can't be friends anymore. He ignored us for years." Naruto replied looking down, not wanting to meet Sakura's eyes.
"Maybe you don't get it Naruto. He did this to protect us." Sakura said turning around and walking up the steps of her porch.
With her back still facing him she said "and by the way. He thought we were dead."

Sakura walked into her house and closed the door behind her.
Naruto just stood there for what seemed like hours thinking about what his best friend had just said to him. He silently turned around to walk back to his house. When he reached his front door he noticed something. His mailbox. Was open.

That's odd. Naruto thought.
"I thought I closed this." Naruto said walking to his mailbox to close it once again.

Before he did, he noticed a small letter inside.
He grabbed the letter and looked at it. It looked handmade and had his name written in the prettiest calligraphy he's ever seen.

I wonder who it's from. Naruto thought as he took the letter and went inside.

After closing his door he began to open his letter. He unfolded the neat lavender paper and he could smell a hint of perfume. He began to read the letter, it read;

Dear Naruto,

I've always admired you for a long time but I don't have the courage to express my feelings towards you. The only thing I could think of was writing you this letter. Your courage and bravery is something I've always admired about you. We have met only on rare occasions but I don't think you remember my name. we first met back on the space ship but I was very shy and didn't approach you. I was roommates with your two friends in the Resistance, Kiba Inuzuka and Shino Aburame. Unlike you I'm not part of the Resistance but of the Peace Core. I feel like I would be a burden to everyone if I joined the Resistance. Anyways I just wanted to tell you that I really like you.

Love Always,
H.H

H.H? I wonder who that could be.. Naruto thought as he headed upstairs to his room.

The Next Day:

Naruto's POV

I woke up with the sunlight peeking through my curtains and right onto my eyes.
I groaned. Time to get up I guess. I thought as I rolled off my bed.
I glanced at my alarm clock and it read 7:30am.
"Damn! I'm late!" Naruto yelled as he rushed to the bathroom only to come out 5 minutes later.
He raced out the door knowing that Sakura went without him.
He was running down the streets and was about to turn the corner into the school when BAM he crashed into a girl knocking her over.

"Oh my gosh! I'm really sorry! Are you alright?" Naruto yelled trying to help the girl up.
She had long dark black hair that ended at her lower back and these beautiful lavender eyes.

"N-no its okay I'm s-sorry for being in your w-way." She stuttered looking at the ground.

Hey she's kinda cute. Naruto thought staring at her.
"No! It was all my fault! I should be the one to apologize I mean after all I did crash into you and stuff.." Naruto said putting his hand behind his head laughing nervously.

"I'm quite alright. T-thank you N-naruto-kun." She replied blushing a little and averting his gaze.
"You know my name?" Naruto asked a little shocked.
"Y-yes I mean after all we d-do go to the same s-school." She said nervously.
"Really? That's awesome!" Naruto yelled jumping up an down. "By the way, what's your name?" He asked.
"H-hinata.." Hinata replied blushing an even darker shade of red.
"Well it's nice to meet you Hinata! Say why don't we walk to school together?" Naruto asked with a grin.
"I-I would like t-that." Hinata answered with a small shy smile of her own.
"Great! Let's get going or we'll be late!" Naruto yelled unconsciously grabbing Hinata's hand and tugging her along with him.

The two got to school just in the nick of time and after saying their goodbyes went to their respected class rooms. Which happen to be across the hall from each other. As he entered the class room it was pretty much the usual scene. Nobody was paying attention and Sakura was trying to drown out her cousin Ino with her music.

"Naruto, your late." The teacher said glancing at him.
"Sorry Kakashi-sensei, I had a little trouble along the way." Naruto replied simply.
"Just go to your seat." Kakashi replied going back to reading his book.

Naruto walked over to his seat in the front. He noticed his friends Shikamaru and Kiba were chatting away, surprisingly Shikamaru wasn't sleeping for once.

"Hey Guys!" Naruto screamed taking his seat next to them.
"Yo! What's up man?" Kiba yelled just as loud as Naruto.
"Troublesome. Would you two just keep it down." Shikamaru grumbled putting his head down.
"Whatever. Anyways why so late today? Kiba asked raising his eyebrow.
"Ohh.. The usual I woke up late. I would've been here earlier but I bumped into this girl." Naruto said putting his hands behind his head.
"A girl you say? Did'ya get her name?" Kiba asked with a smirk on his face.
"Hinata.." Naruto replied staring into space dreaming.
"Wait you mean THE Hinata Hyuuga?" Shikamaru said raising his head with a questioning look on his face.
"Well I guess? I didn't get her last name but why does it matter?" Naruto asked them.
"Well I just can't believe that you got to meet her and lived." Kiba said with a shocked expression.
"What do you mean lived?" Naruto asked furrowing his brows.
"What we mean is that every time we see her she's always flanked by her over protective cousin, Neji." Shikamaru replied with a yawn.
"Neji Hyuuga? They're related?" Naruto asked looking clueless.
"Well obviously. I mean besides they're surnames, they both have lavender eyes if you haven't noticed." Kiba replied rolling his eyes at his dumb folded friend.
"But they're nothing alike!" Naruto shouted not getting what his friends were telling him.
"Well have you seen Sakura and Ino? Total opposites but they're still related." Shikamaru replied.
"Man! I wish I could talk to Hina! I haven't since the years on the spaceship." Kiba grumbled.
"Dude, do you have the hots for Hinata?" Naruto asked raising his brow.
"Me? Heck no! I just think of her as my little sister besides, its Ino I'm after." Kiba said turning around to look at Ino who had a scowl on her face from Sakura ignoring her.
"Ino? Seriously? Why would you like a troublesome girl like her? Shikamaru said looking at Kiba.
"Well then who do you like Mr. Genius?" Kiba asked narrowing his eyes slightly at Shikamaru.
"Temari's the one for me." Shikamaru replied lazily. He looked at the back corner of the room. It was the person sitting right next to Sakura. She had her head down on her desk with her iPod on.
"Temari? Seriously?" Kiba snickered while mimicking Shikamaru.
"Troublesome." was Shikamaru's only reply as he put his head back down.
"Atleast you guys got girls.." Naruto said a bit depressed.
"C'mon dude, you gotta give up on Sakura already." Kiba replied while patting him on the back.
"Yeah, maybe your right.." Naruto simply replied already deep in thought.
