Hey people! Miss me? (Cricket screech)… Er…
Okay, well I'm terribly sorry about the late update! I just suddenly lost interest (or was too lazy… either way) in this fanfic and didn't was to continue for a while. But I see that some people were still reading and waiting so, yeah. This chapter is an important chapter because it's the start of the disease attack. I know that Alzheimer disease was suppose to be there naturally but it's just too complicated so I just made it appear as it was new to Naruto.
Okay, well, I hope you enjoy this chapter and I'll try to get the next one.
2 people sat together with a small wooden table. Naruto on the right side, and Uchiha on the left side. It was tutoring time and they've been working for half an hour.
As the blonde worked, Uchiha sat up and sighed.
"Why did you cut?" He glanced at the boy; he can see he was swallowing his own saliva.
"Uh, what are you talking about? I was sick so I went home" his heart was pounding and sweat was forming.
"Don't play dumb, I know you were in school"
Naruto decided to not answer. He gasped as delicate fingers were holding his chin and was forced to look at his teacher. He saw a glint in the teacher's eyes.
"You skip once more, you'll never see daylight again" fingers released his chin.
"Y-yes" blushing, he continued his work.
(Half hour later… feel sorry for Naruto gosh)
With a pencil curled up in his hand, his left hand scratched the back of his head staring at the question as if it was his enemy. The sheet was worn out of erasing marks as the blonde tried to figure out how to solve this problem.
Minutes went by as the answer space was still left blank in front of him. It's calling him. "Hurry up, answer me answer me" It echoed through Naruto's head.
"Having problems?" A yawn escaped from the teacher's lips as he watched Naruto work.
"Not yet" His eyes were reading the problem again. It occurred to him that the problem made no sense at all to him anymore. His eyes moved to another object, losing interest in the question.
"I see you don't understand" He lifted an eyebrow to the blonde.
"How'd you know?" asking without looking at him.
"It's something all teachers know. Students who have problems answering a question usually look away from their question" He picked up a pencil he just happened to find and sat next to the blonde.
Naruto shifted uncomfortably away from him. That touch gave him a tingling feeling and doesn't know why.
"To answer this question. You have to add these two angles together."
"Why?" his voice was soft but audible.
"Because these two angles make the exterior angle here" He pointed the "x" with his pencil.
And they continued on afterwards…
(After tutoring)
"Thank you for tutoring my son" His mother gave him a bow.
"No problem miss" He shook hands with good manner as he walked out of the house. Before he was about to leave, he turned towards Naruto.
"Make sure you finish my homework and the questions I gave you for tutoring lessons. If you don't, I'm giving you extra to do during our next lesson"
"Aye aye captain" Naruto said sarcastically.
"Good, I'll see you then" He ruffled his hair- Which was oddly amusing to the blonde.
He then stopped again, "And remember- what I told you earlier"
Naruto laughed sheepishly, "Yeah, I won't"
Naruto watched the teacher leave as he closed the door shut and leaned on it. He was so relieved that tutoring was over. Now he could relax and-
"RING! RING!"
Grumbling, Naruto walked slowly to the phone and answered, "Hello?"
"Naruto?"
It was his friend, Sakura. He suddenly stood straight after hearing her voice.
"Naruto! You were supposed to come to the movies with me. Remember?"
"Oh… I almost forgot! Thanks for reminding me I'll be right there!" He rushed towards his room and picked out the available clothes in front of him. Seeing a tight orange jacket, he decided to wear that with a pair of ripped up jeans. Then he dug in a pile of books to search for his wallet.
"Come on, where are you… yes!" With the wallet found, he placed it deep in his pocket and ran downstairs.
"Mom! I'm going to the movies with my friend!" He called out. Shoes in front of him, he carelessly forced his foot in his shoes, and left even if his feet were only half way in.
Smelling the fresh air outside, he smiled as he walked quickly to the bus stop to meet his friend. He suddenly feels all bouncy inside, ready to jump in joy.
'This weather is probably getting me hyper' He grinned, mouth reaching cheek to cheek.
He completely forgot his moody troubles with his teacher.
(At the bus stop…)
"There you are Naruto, I was almost getting the feeling that you ditched me or something" She slapped her hand behind his back playfully as they placed their weights on to each other. They laughed when Naruto's weight was too much for Sakura to handle and fell over.
"Naruto, you should lose some weight" She smiled when a hand was shown in front of her. She took the chance to reach it, only to have the hand pulled away before it was touched. Sakura pouted with her face puffed up as Naruto laughed once more. He than let his hand out again.
She took it cautiously and quickly grabbed for the hand to pull herself up. She hit him at the back of his head as a gesture to cut it out. Naruto rubbed his head sheepishly and they both waited for the bus.
"So, what movie are we watching again?" He looked towards her.
"I told you already, we're watching the FMA movie. Remember?"
"Ooh" He's surprised he forgot.
"Dumb butt" She grinned.
The bus came and they took out a few coins. They sat together like best buddies they are.
The bus rumbled under their seats and they would jump a few times when there's a bump on the road. Naruto took out his wallet and rubbed it at the side, bored.
"It's such a beautiful day outside, isn't it?" She nudged him on his arm.
"Yeah, beautiful" He smiled and watched the scenery outside.
The bus screeched to a stop. There was the movie theatre.
Naruto and Sakura got off together and thanked the bus driver.
"Anytime!" The bus driver was pleased to hear a thank you from a fellow passenger. The two giggled and waved goodbye.
"Any chance we can get popcorn?" Sakura said as they walk towards the movie.
"Popcorn? Sure, lets see how much I-"He dug his hand in his pocket but found no wallet inside. He checked his wallet from the other pocket. Still no wallet.
He then panicked and checked his back pocket too. He doubled checked his other pockets. A silent whimper escaped from his lips.
"What's wrong Naruto?" she glanced worriedly at his friend.
"Oh crap! I left my wallet in the bus!" He sank slowly on the floor, whimpering at his stupid action. It's a stupid action indeed.
A hand patted his back in comfort, "don't worry Naruto, I'll go buy for you"
"But- my wallet…" He looked down. He loved his wallet. With a swirly sign on the front, he really admired it.
"It's going to be fine. Stuff like this always happens to me. Now hurry or we'll miss the movie!" She put on a cheery face as she hugged him tight. A hand was grabbing his arm and he was lifted up.
'Yeah, a little incident like that shouldn't ruin this day especially for Sakura' He smiled and tried to ignore the lost wallet.
"Okay, um… I'll have 2 bags of popcorn with butter. And 2 sodas please" She asked.
"What kind?"
"I'll have mountain dew. And Naruto, what do you want?" she tapped him on the shoulder.
"Oh, I'll just have the same as you"
"Costs $15 please"
She took out her wallet. It was pink with cherry blossoms printed on it. She took out three 5's and handed them in.
"Thank you and here" he handed the popcorn and soda to Sakura and Naruto.
"Hurry, I think the movie's about to start!" Naruto said as he looked at his watch.
They both made a dash to the available seats.
Sitting in the mid seats, they sat comfortably waiting for the movie to start.
"You got the popcorn?" Naruto asked Sakura.
"Yeah"
"Is that mine?"
"This is mine Naruto; I thought the guy gave it to you before. Remember?"
Thinking, he cursed at himself and told Sakura to wait there. He ran for the popcorn and the drink he left at the stand.
Searching, he couldn't find it.
"Excuse me?"
"Yes?"
"Have you seen any stray popcorn and soda around here?"
The guy looked at him strangely, "You need to buy sir?"
"No, I already bought it but I left it here"
"Oh, I'm sorry sir but someone already took the popcorn and drink that was lying around"
"What?"
"Very sorry. Would you like to buy another?"
"No, it's okay" He walked back disappointed.
'Third time happening. What now?'
"So, did you get your popcorn?" She asked, her face stuffed with popcorn.
"No, someone took it already"
"What?"
"Sorry, I just wasted your money. I can pay you back" He rubbed the back of his head.
"It's okay, don't worry about it. Here, you want?" She passed the popcorn to him.
"Thanks Sakura. You're such a good friend" He grinned and took a handful of popcorn.
'And I'm the worst friend anyone could have' He sighed at his bitter thought.
(After the movie ended…)
"That was an awesome movie! Right Naruto?" She skipped along with him. They're going to take the bus again back home.
"Huh? Yeah, it was good…" He said, unenthusiastically.
She cocked her head to the side and watched as his face was as gloomy as a wilted flower that lost its petals.
"Are you alright Naruto?"
He sighed, kicking a small rock in the way.
"I'm just a bit overwhelmed of how much stuff has been going on… First, I forgot what movie we're going to watch, which was not much of a worry though. Second, I lost my wallet, and third, I forgot my popcorn and drink at the movies" His bang covered his eyes.
"Aww, don't worry Naruto, I'm probably sure it's just a bad day"
'Yeah… I hope so' He thought.
End of chapter 3!
