I copied this text from last story. I'm still learning to make story with english language which I still struggle with. But, you know I tried my best for this story and I'm still enjoying writing things. And yeah, hope you guys enjoy this and I suck at opening.

She was looking at foamy clouds outside. The clouds that were walking so slowly offset the passing time. There she also saw birds. What bird is it she doesn't know. What is certain is she looked through the window glass to the wide outside world. She uses her slender hands to support her chin. Her red hair she exposed, once more slips to the back of her ear. Her eyes had not escaped the bright blue sky.

She saw a cloud, but didn't think it was a cloud. She saw a bird, but she didn't think it was a bird. She couldn't even hear what the teacher was explaining. Her mind was flying nowhere as she thought about the words of a man she had met about a while ago.

"I'm sorry for asking this but," He paused. "W...will you go out with me?"

It was so sudden. She just doesn't understand why that guy is asking her out on a date sometime soon. It's not that she wanted him to ask her from before or anything, they had also been friends about six months after the first meeting. She just doesn't understand. The blond almost never even talked to the opposite sex. And out of the blue the boy asked her out?

"When?"

"Uhh…this Saturday. You can?"

"That's tomorrow right? Well...no problem with that."

"Really? I will come to your house then."

"Okay, until here is the material for today. Now, you kids can grab your things."

After the bell rang, most students immediately packed their belongings. Including the girl. Her red hair swayed a little because the afternoon breeze. She heard an effortless step closer to her feet.

"Hey Sara! Want to come home with us?"

The red-haired girl turned her eyes and looked at the pink colored friend from behind her shoulder. "Oh, Sakura. I don't know. Maybe I'll go home alone."

Sara continued her activities to put things in her bag. The work is almost done, but Sara is getting uncomfortable. After saying that last sentence, Sakura was looking straight at her with a curve smiling in her face. Sara swear to god might catch a glimpse her smile could reach her eyes.

"Ano… Sakura?"

"Hmm?"

"Why are you still here?"

That warm gaze still not lifted from her. "No, nothing. I just thought you had something to say."

"I...I don't think about anything..." Sara paused. "Or maybe I don't feel like thinking about anything so..."

"Is this about Naruto?" Shoot Sakura quickly. A stun seemed to strike her nerve in a split second. Her neck also tightened as if ice had touched her back. How does she know?

"Ahh...I don't understand what you mean." Sara distracted her attention while trying to tidy up the remaining items she hadn't put in. It wasn't like she didn't want to talk about 'that' with her friends, it was just embarrassing.

"Oh, come on. No need to hide. I've heard it."

When the last item she put in, Sara tilted her head. Her violet eyes couldn't calm down as she guessed what Sakura meant. "Heard?"

Well, Sakura is always like this. As soon as there is a gossip as small as an apple seed let's say, she will still discuss it. Sara actually doesn't really care about other people's business, but if her pink friend has started babbling, then she has no choice but to prepare her own ears.

"Yes, but actually I was more like overhearing your conversation."

'Is this what I thought?'

"You guys are going on a date right?"

=.=

=.=

=.=

"I do remember that you will come to my house today but..."

"…IT'S STILL 6 MORNING, IDIOT !"

The red-haired girl never thought. Never. If in front of her there is a man with blonde hair and blue eyes who is taller than her standing on the porch of a girl's house who has just shut the contact with her dream world.

"I...I'm sorry Sara. But also, can you please lower your voice a little?"

Sara once again wanted to slap herself. While pressing her temples to hold back the emotions that continued to overflow, she finally allowed the blonde head to enter. The girl went straight to the kitchen to get a glass of water and give it to the young man. Naruto, who was already sitting on the sofa, looked nervous, his brows knitted together, and his eyes still had guilt.

"Once again, I'm sorry."

After the glass was placed in front of the young man, Sara grasped her own hair. Naruto was dressed neatly and simply. And she knows what it is for. But in the morning? At 6 o'clock? "Seriously, what's wrong with you? Are you being chased by something?"

"Ahahaa…" It was just a feeble laugh that only the blonde youth seemed to be able to put out now. Naruto didn't seem to want to answer that. If Naruto always told her that it was Kakashi that he couldn't understand, then Sara could say that Naruto was the one she didn't understand.

"Eh? Did I hear correctly? That Naruto? Date?"

"This time I'm serious. I'm not lying, Ino!"

"Can you guys not be too loud?"

"Oops, but it's not my fault, it's Sakura. Btw, do you accept it?"

If it's like this, then you can't try to hide it anymore. Sara wasn't upset with them because Sakura and Ino never once revealed their secrets. Or you could say Sara was lucky enough because Sakura was the one who overheard her conversation with Naruto.

"Uh…yes. Tomorrow we will go together."

"Wooow… what is this? I suddenly saw flowers blooming in my eyes!" Ino responded. Her pink friend is almost always in the same soul with her. "So true! I never thought Sara would accept a date!"

This was brought up again by both of them. The red-haired girl looked at them lazily. "Is it strange if I refuse his invitation?"

Sakura and Ino stopped to stare at the girl. "Eh? You never noticed?"

Sara looked at the two of them too. Shrugging shoulders. Oh wait ...

"Sara, when you walked in for the first time, a lot of boys were attracted to you! Then for months you always refuse to take early dating of males in school. But, once Naruto invited you...I didn't say Naruto was a bad person! I know he's smart, but..."

Crap.

"I…I have no other choice! I don't know them. I'm just...just not comfortable."

"Then, did Naruto make you comfortable?" The question just came out of Sakura's mouth. "I mean I know you are friends. But, doesn't this make my prediction seem correct?"

"Prediction? What are you talking about?" The girl forgot the first question, or rather wanted to avoid. But it is undeniable that Ino's second statement made her curious. Because it seemed that Sakura also understood what she meant.

"You know, Naruto seems to like you..."

"...Eh?"

Sara, who was swinging her broom occasionally saw a blonde man sitting on the sofa watching a local program. Not a rare sight for her. Naruto does occasionally visits her house when his father is not at home or sometimes studies here. No wonder he's the smartest student in school. Naruto is indeed quite well known because of his fluid head. But the difference now is that the yellow teen is starting to befriend with all the boys in his class like Shino, Kiba, or even loud people like Lee. Even though the scope is only in its class, Kakashi says that it's a pretty good leap. Naruto has changed a lot since then.

Besides that, Sara had absolutely no objection to Naruto's presence in her house. The young man taught her many things, even food recipes. And the most important thing is that she isn't home alone anymore even though Kakashi also visits every few days.

"How about your father, Naruto?"

"He's fine I guess, yesterday he called me." His eyes have not left the television screen.

Oh, that girl remembers too. Yesterday his father actually called her to ask how she was. How did Minato get Sara's number? Well, Kakashi is the one who should be suspicious about that. Sara was visited by Minato some time ago. Sara could say their appearance was very similar, unfortunately the girl couldn't know the appearance of Naruto's mother, Kushina. However, it was so clear in her memory that Kushina was similar to her according to Minato. But he said there was no need to think about it further.

"Umm, Naruto?"

"Hm?" Typical answer from him.

"That...when are we going?"

"When you're ready, of course."

Heh, how could that girl forget. Naruto was more than ready to do this. Sara looked at the clock, thirty minutes to 7. That was plenty of time for her to get ready.

"Have you had breakfast?"

"Well..." The yellow teen even gave her a weak smile. "How about I cook for you?"

=.=

=.=

=.=

The two of them set the position side by side while waiting for the next bus stop route. The fast frequence of the round wheels keep stayed around them. And it's been three minutes since they got on the bus, they haven't spoken a line. The strangest thing was that they had this since passing the doorway of Sara's house. Sara by the god felt something fast being pumped inside her chest. The girl could see Naruto holding his own hand, a sign that he was feeling nervous too. However, silence like this was still acceptable to the blond. But, not for red haired.

"S...Sara." The voice he made…shaking? The girl wonders. "What's wrong Naruto?"

Naruto tried to catch her eye. But a moment later the man closed his eyes again as if he was looking at a creature other than a human. Rapidly shut. "You…haven't said it yet."

"Me...say what?"

"Ehh…my cooking today. Don't you always comment on that?"

Sara involuntarily forgot to cover her own mouth. Oh, how could she forget that. That's became thing between them. Sara ate Naruto's food, the girl commented. Likewise, vice versa. This morning she hadn't done that, and it was disturbing Naruto's head.

"Oh yes! Sorry, ahaha…I didn't really pay attention earlier."

"It's okay. Or are you getting bored with my cooking?"

She waved the hand quickly. Shook her head, "Of course not! Why do you think that?"

"Well..." Naruto adjusted his seat for a moment. This time his eyes looked straight into the girl's violet iris. Maybe even deeper to her soul, suddenly. "...you not talkative as usual. This morning I mean."

"Is it true? Anyway, as usual Naruto. Your cooking has more flavor than last week."

Whether the boy cared about it or not, the blond seemed to pass through the statement he had just uttered. His hand began to rub his chin. "Hmm… just now because I had a lot of time. Wasn't I in a rush last week?"

Sara just smiled softly at him. "Ahaha, you're right. But Naruto, where are we really going now?"

"Err…it's only half way, we'll stop near the building over there. Seen from here." His manly hand point to square glass beside her. The girl could see the building in question, but at a glance she also saw the watch that the yellow teen was wearing. It reminds her, Naruto indeed anyone who may not too accustomed to the crowd, but the clothes he uses now also shows the relaxed nature of his. White sneakers and black jeans, plus his favorite dark orange jacket that has a swirl emblem on the back.

Sara also made preparations. All she did was put on a pink sweater and using a skirt with similar color with her top. Sara also wears black stockings that cover her entire legs and wears short ankle high heels boots. Her hair is also slightly modified, she leaves the bangs neatly but not the long back. She changed it into a ponytail. She wants to try something more…fresh?

She insanely remembers how he looks when tried to made words about her appearance. The side that the yellow teen rarely showed to the girl. The memory also tickled her stomach, until she also forgot how to hold back her smile.

"You look...err..."

"Come on, p..please . Just say it."

"I… Ahem. I think you look amazing. B…but different at the same time, I mean in a good way!"

At the sidewalk accompanied by the nuances of the sounds in the center of city. The weather was not too bad either, it was bright and there were only a few clouds visible from sight. Sara took a breath, this was the first time for them. Because of that, she also curious whether Naruto prepared this all.

"Where are we going, Naruto?"

"Eh, ah! We'll go to the cinema first." Whether it's just the girl's feelings or not, the boy seems lost in thought. Did Naruto feel the same? If that was the case, what she's thinking correct?

'Maybe he...'

"Is there anything you want to watch, Sara?"

Without realizing it, both of them were already on the cover board for the film that will air today. There are 5 different titles with a set schedule. Naruto isn't people who are following the trend of the movie, so for the blond gives freedom of choice to the girl. Sara stared at him for a moment then began to browse through each board. And it turns out that something really stole her attention, namely a film cover showing a cat and a human. From the release date the film was broadcast about a month ago.

"How about this one?" Sara pointed to the cover in question. Naruto didn't hide the slight shock he felt. "Oh? I didn't think you would choose this."

"My friends said it's a good movie, so why don't we try it?"

Sara stared at him. He had no other choice to argue here. "Yeah, worth a try."

The two of them finally tried to enter. However, an officer detained them. "We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience, but the cinema is temporarily closed."

"What!? Why can't we enter?"

"Sara, calm down. Um...can you tell us what's going on?"

The officer looked guilty, knit his brows. "Just a few minutes ago, someone made a scene. He leaked the story of a movie that was hot lately. Many people end up dealing with that person. So, for the safety of all, we have to temporarily close this cinema."

"Closed temporarily? How long?" Naruto tried to ask. A worried tone also seemed to come out at the same time as the question. As if this was a completely unexpected event.

"Estimated about three hours. Once again, we apologize for the inconvenience." The officer bowed then continued his guard walking. The yellow teen couldn't hide his disappointment and sighed. "Oh, I see…"

"Naruto?"

Sara actually felt disappointed too, but accidents do happen like this sometimes. However, the girl felt that Naruto seemed to really think about the bad consequences experienced after the commotion, which she thought wasn't like him at all. The blonde never considered unexpected externalities to be such a big thing, or even usually he wouldn't care about them.

But here his expression became more visible after hearing the officer's statement. Is Naruto thinking about her? Honestly, that thought made the girl happy, but in life it's good that we don't really care about the unexpected that doesn't even hurt them in the least.

"Never mind Naruto, I'm also disappointed but this can't be helped right? Or…"

"I'm sorry Sara. To be honest I don't know why I feel this way either, but…"

"Hey..."

Sara has no other choice. Her hands cupped his striped cheeks forcing the blue iris to stare at the violet. His mouth was tightened by that act. The two blue eyes were pensive for a moment. It is undeniable that Sara is always amazed by the color of those eyes. But it couldn't be helped that those eyes often lacked of might.

"…Naruto, how many times have I told you that I'm okay. Maybe we just have no luck. Okay?"

"..."

"Naruto?"

"…Uhh, Yes. You're probably right."

She smiled gently at the boy. She pulled back her hand. "Then let's go out first."
