Naruto tossed and turned. He was dreaming an odd dream. But the one thing like his usual dreams was that this one contained Sakura……
-Dreams-
Naruto was standing with his feet in the snow. It was so cold! He was only wearing Pajamas! He looked around and saw Sakura's back looking slumped and depressed. She walked up to her. He hesitated before reaching out his hand to touch her on the shoulder.
"Sakura-chan?" Are you okay?"
"Naruto…" she said softly.
"Sakura-chan…Here you can have my shirt. It's not much, but it's better then nothing."
Naruto removed his thin layer of clothing and set it upon her shoulders.
"Naruto…" she said a bit more harshly…
"hmm?" He turned around, expecting to find her pretty face smiling at him.
"If you think you're making me happy, your not…" she said partially whispering.
"Can you define me Happiness, Naruto?" She said harshly.
"You…never even felt Happiness……and probably never will…" She touched his face with her cold hands.
Naruto winced at the cold and asked "what do you mean?" All of the sudden, a heavy wind came, knocking his shirt he had put over on Sakura. She looked at Sakura and to his surprise, he saw the Kyuubi in the spot she was on 10 seconds ago. "What the hell did you do to Sakura, you damn Fox!"
The Kyuubi stared at him with amusement before saying, "After all she's done to you…you…you still love her?!"
Naruto stopped and looked down. "It's funny how big of an idiot you are… ……All the things she did… all the times she neglected you…and you still love her?!" He howled with laughter. At these words, he remembered the time when he came back from taking Tsunade back to the village. She was healing Sasuke that time. When he walked into the room, she had only murmured a quiet mumble "Naruto" while when Sasuke woke up, he received a huge hug from the girl. Let's face it… He wasn't as precious as Sasuke to her. The snow turns into rain and the Kyuubi disappeared…He heard a huge crackling of thunder and…he falls into a deep darkness.
"AAAH!" He yells!
-Woken up-
Naruto, shaken, opened his eyes and stared at rain pouring against the windows. He laid on his bed for a moment, looking at the dainty drops splattering against the glass which slid until they reach on the bottom and disappeared. He shivered and decided to take a shower to release all of the pressure in his mind and chest.
-I – I – I – I – I – I – I – I – I – I – I – I – I – I – I – I – I –
Naruto stepped out of the shower. He felt slightly refreshed and since today he didn't have to meet with Sasuke and Sakura that early (thank god), he decided to take a walk. He stepped up in the training grounds and laid there looking at clouds and the big tree that was towering over him…
He felt mega-peaceful as he watched the little leaves flow down. He closed his eyes, not ever wanting to leave this peaceful moment behind.
When all the sudden…
'you…You still Love her?!'
He was startled. What the Hell?! He opened his eyes. Damn it! His peaceful morning was ruined! He got up and glared daggers at the tree.
'you…You still Love her?! '
He gave the tree a punch. Stop it… Stop thinking it. He punched the tree again. STOP thinking ABOUT HER! He gave the tree several punches, each one harder and more powerful than the ones before. OMFG! Naruto was now on Fire, punching the tree with all his might. (A/N Poor tree….--; Misha-san has become a tree abuser……: P) He slowed down a little. Why..? Why the hell did this always happened to him…? He stopped and slumped down at the nearly destroyed tree, which was currently in a poor state. Heck, it looked as if it got chewed up by Kiba, Stomped on by Neji, was stabbed by Tenten with her whole Kunai collection, was attacked with those PING smiles from Lee AND Gai 2390 times (Oh, the poor, poor tree…), got death glared by Sasuke, and there is more, but the authoress currently feels guilty for making the tree get tortured this way and stops typing about it. But to be clear, the tree looked like crap.
Naruto was completely unaware that he was being watched.
"I think Naruto snapped" a voice said, snickering.
"k-Kiba-kun..!"
"……Kiba…"
Naruto sighed. He was currently thinking very troublesome thoughts. His normal cheery face looked twisted, as if he had been going through emotional changes in a short period of time. (1) Hinata, hiding in the bushes, looked worried. 'Naruto-kun…' "So anyway, let's get back to Kurenai-sensei! Hinata, Shino!!" Kiba said. "Let's go!" Shino followed. "Oi, Oi Hinata!, aren't you coming?? Hinata looked at Naruto before answering "I-I'll catch u-up w-with you guys later...". "WHAT?!" Kiba yelled before continuing, but Kurenai-sensei will be mad and sh-"Shino chucked his bugs in his mouth and silently told him to be quiet. Kiba was about to rebel, As usual, until he saw Hinata's face of longing. "Sigh...fine, fine…" Kiba started to yell at Shino. "YOU BASTARD! You didn't need to put your nasty bugs in my mouth!"
"A-ano…N-N-N-N-Naruto-k-k-kun…" Hinata said blushing like a tomato.
"Hmm?" Naruto turned around, and saw Hinata. "Oh! Hi Hinata! Didn't see you there!" Naruto smiled at her. Hinata tried to look at him. Really, she did. But Naruto was like the sun and it was hard to see through something, trying to find out what he's hiding under all that brightness. Hinata couldn't fight it. She stared at the ground. It was hard for her to look at Naruto. As Naruto leaned down to look at her, Hinata blushed even harder. There faces were 3 inches apart. Hinata gave a small "eep!" and backed away.
Naruto cocked his head. Hinata was weird. "uh……so……what brings you here?" "a-a-a-a-a-ano, N-n-n-n-Naruto-kun Are you ok?" She asked. Naruto looked up at her in surprise. She looked at him and when she saw his expression, she continued quickly " ImeanYouseemedsad…" Naruto stared at the crappy tree. She analyzed his expression. He seemed so……depressed. She stared at him before saying, "I'm here. You don't have to tell me if you don't want to, but it's better if you let all your feelings out…" Naruto looked up and saw her. For once, she wasn't blushing. She actually looked very serious. Hinata wanted to know. She cared. Naruto smiled and said "Thanks, Hinata. You're a good friend." Hinata snapped out of it before realizing what she just did. She blushed like Crazy and said "G-g-gomenasai!!!! For saying those weird things!" She was about to run when she felt something gripping her hand. "I'll tell you……" Naruto said quietly.
-O-
"Uhn…" Sakura said, waking up. She opened her eyes and saw that she was in somebody's house. She shifted her position and met face-to-face with Kakashi. Then she realized she was naked. On a bed. With a thin sheet of blanket covering her.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHhhhhhhhhhh" she screamed!!
Kakashi calmly said "Yo".
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHhhhhhhh!!!"
Kakashi stared.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
"Hey, can you stop screaming? You'll wake the neighbors."
"HENNNNNNNNTAAAAAAAAAAIIIIIIIII!"
"You'll wake up Tsunade-sama."
"Y-YOU PERVERT!"
Out of nowhere, Tsunade came and chucked a pot at her face.
"Shut. Up."
Sakura rubbed the bruise on her head.
Tsunade glanced at Kakashi and told him to leave. "The reason why you're naked is that your clothes are……soiled."
Sakura blushed in embarrassment at the earlier events. "……then why is Kakashi-sensei here?"
"…..His clothes are soiled too…"
'o-oh yeah…' Sakura thought. 'But waiiiiiit………if his clothes are soiled, how come he's still wearing… nvm…I don't want to know.'
-O-
So that is what happened. Hinata stared at Naruto. Damn that Sakura! Making Naruto-kun feel like this!
"Ano…Hinata-chan, do you think that everyone would be happier if I left…?
Hinata instantly snapped her head back up. She didn't bother with the 'kun' this time. "What??.....No...Naruto!!!!...You…you…YOU can't...Of course they won't be happier!!" Hinata stared on the ground. "The truth is, if you left, Konoha will be nothing!" Hinata blushed before whispering "I will be nothing too…"
"Huh?" Naruto didn't hear the last part. She blushed and shook her head. "Please don't go!" Naruto stared. He looked at her before saying, "I have to".
"…why?" She murmured.
"I need to forget……"
"……"
Hinata stared at Naruto. As he turned to walk away, she whispered…
"Even if you forget me, I won't forget you, Naruto…!
– I – I – I – I – I – I – I – I – I – I – I – I – I – I – I – I – I –
(I have a strange urge to end the chapter here, but I'll continue!)
Naruto stared at his watch. Talking with Hinata made him lose track of time. Sure, she was a weirdo, but she was a good friend. He decided go meet team 7. He went to the bridge where they usually met and saw Sasuke there. Sasuke nodded when he came.
"Hey, you bastard…"
"What's up, Dobe?"
"Don't call me that!!"
"Uresai…Usuratongachi…"
"Grrrrr….Sasuke-teme!"
-Silence-
Naruto's expression softened and he said, "Hey, Sasuke…"
"hm?"
"Uh…I just wanted to say that uh…………………you were…uh………a………uh………bastard-idiot dumbass sort of friend…"
"…gee, thanks"
"But, uh…you were…uh… an uh… worthy rival…and uh…take…"
"Take care of Sakura, ok?"
"!" Sasuke turned to look at him. Naruto was looking at the water, his back facing Sasuke.
"Hmph…" Sasuke smirked. "I don't know what you're up to, but you better not do anything stupid, Usuratongachi…!"
Naruto turned and looked at Sasuke and grinned. Naruto then said, "I'm going, Kakashi's not coming for a long time…"
Tbc…
Misha's Slice of Heaven
REVIEW PLEASE!!!!!!
What did you think of this chapter? Anyway, that part with Sakura and Kakashi in the same room, well, for all the perverts that thought that they were in the same bed, they weren't. Kakashi was sitting on a chair facing Sakura's bed's side. Anyway, Constructive critism will be accepted. Flamers will face the wrath of Misha-san.
Anyway, it's almost CHRISTMAS!!!! YAAAAY! I should write a Christmas special shouldn't I? I'll try to.
(1) hahahaha!!!!!Naruto-chan is going through puburty!!! LOL!! Sorry..that came out of no where....
You KNOW the USUAL!!!
