Chapter 2 – Love Story

I was five when I met her. My parents went over to her house for dinner. She was pretty, no, she was beautiful. She walked up to me, grabbed my hand, and said I was going to play with her whether I liked it or not. She was demanding. I liked her.

I think it was the summer time
When I laid eye's on you
I didn't even know you're name
Some how we'd end up in the same room
Never crossed my mind
I never saw you like that
I should've listened to my best friend
He knew we'd be a perfect match

We instantly became close friends throughout our Academy days and in our Gennin days. She thought of me as her best friend. I thought of her as more than a friend. I wanted her to love me like I loved her. But she was in love with someone else.

It's a typical love story
We started out as friends
We met way back when
This is just a
Typical love story
The girl you never wanted
Just steals your heart
I never saw it comin'
'Till I fell so hard

I was in love with her, but I hid my feelings well. She thought I was in love with Temari. Until one day, I decide to tell her my feelings. She didn't think I was serious.

I always made up some excuse
Sayin' that you weren't my type
Didn't wanna face the truth
Didn't wanna cross that line
Till one day I saw you
Out of the corner of my eye
You were flirting with some guy
And I said I thought I would die

She giggled and was set to walk away. But I grabbed her arm and pulled her into a tight embrace. I whispered into her ear "I love you". She was silent for what felt like an eternity. Then she whispered into mine and said "I love you too".

It's a typical love story
We started out as friends
We met way back when
This is just a typical love story
The girl you never wanted
Just steals your heart
I never saw it comin'
'Till I fell so hard

I fell in love with Ino Yamanaka, hard.

So how was it? Please review! I've decided to write a more … happier songfic, since the last one was kind of depressing. I know, this plot was kind of lame. I tried my best to make it happy…
