[ We do not own naruto or anything naruto related, naruto belongs to tv tokyo and Masashi Kishimoto, the creator of naruto, this is all for fun!! ]
[ The Characters in this story are original, except for the naruto characters that are used aswell, duh! XD]
"So what made you decide to come here?" Naruto turns around, face stuffed with ramen and see's rose and Jacob coming towards the shop "I don't know, we needed a change for once, besides I hear this place has the best ramen" Rose and Jacob enter to see naruto with a huge grin on his face, his mouth still stuffed with ramen "um….hi hokage-sama, what are you doing here?" Rose is surprised to find him, the hokage at a place like this, naruto gives her a quick glare, but regains his posture "Are you kidding me, I use to come here all the time when I was younger"
Both of them take a seat on either side of naruto, Jacob takes a good look at all the empty bowls of ramen, just looking at them makes him hungry "Can we eat or what?, ill have one order of miso ramen, what about you rose?" Rose still cant believe the way Jacob is acting, he's never seen this side of him, it makes him seem normal to her "I'll have what naruto is having" After a few bowls of ramen, Jacob remembers that the last time he saw okami was at the hokage's tower, and decides to see what happened "Hey, naruto what did okami go to your office for?" he continues to eat his ramen, rose gives him a glare "Jacob he's the hokage, you cant just talk to him like that!"
Naruto laughs at the comment almost choking on his ramen, rose doesn't understand whats so funny. He clears his throat to answer the question "He came to ask me to train him" Both Jacob and Rose look at him surprised by what okami did, he was never one to ask for help, he liked to do things on his own. "why?.." is all rose manages to say "looks like he finally gets that were a team, took him long enough" Rose gives a quick smile to see Jacob acting like himself "He wants to be stronger to take down his brother, but that's not the reason Im going to train him"
Rose starts to fidget as naruto eats his ramen, not answering the question "Well, why then!?" Rose quickly covers her mouth and blushes at what she's done, Jacob bursts out laughing, naruto laughs along with him "Sorry rose, I got carried away by being here" he puts aside the last ramen bowl "He also wants to be strong enough to protect some girl he mentioned?" Rose stares at her lands for a while "So that's why….he wants to protect lily at whatever the cost…" "Rose?" rose comes back to reality to see Jacob and naruto waiting for her "oops, sorry" she gets up and starts to walk along side them
"when does the training start?" Jacob looks at naruto with a serious face "In a week, well be away for a while so he can train without distractions.." Rose stops in her tracks "A week! But the sakura festival will start on the day okami is suppose to leave….lily will be devastated…" she quickly snaps out of it "uh…Jacob can you come with me its very important!" she grabs his arm "sorry for leaving like this hokage-sama, say hi to nana for me, bye!" she runs while dragging Jacob along. They arrive at her house 10 mins later, she slows down enough for Jacob to regain control "Whats going on rose!?"
Rose sighs as she walks in the front door "its lily…she's going to be devastated when she hears okami is leaving…after she got the nerve to ask him out…." It takes Jacob a minute to put 2 and 2 together, he rubs his head in frustration "I see the festival is in a week, and that's when that baka is gonna leave" lily walks down the stairs to see them both in the hall with serious faces "hey guys…" They both look up to see her, she doesn't look like her usual self, she's too sad looking "Did you hear that….Im sorry lily" Rose goes to hug her sister while Jacob takes a seat on the couch "It's ok…..I mean its only a festival, its not like it matters…." Jacob gets up and starts walking out the door "were are you going?" "Im gonna go have a talk with that baka, ill be back later"
A week later, we find okami in his bedroom packing for the trip he's gonna take, he stops and thinks about what Jacob told him the a week earlier "Did you even think about what your doing, your finally given a chance to be with lily and you do this!" okami sighs "I didn't realize that, damn what am I gonna tell lily…." "you won't have to, she already knows" He gives him serious face "she was really disappointed at the news" As okami is about to respond, Jacob walks out the door "Just think about it". He had spent the week away from all of them because he couldn't face lily, Knock, Knock "huh?" okami snaps back to reality to go open his door, he opens it to see hinata instead of naruto at the door "Hello okami" hinata smiles at him "Hi? Come in, where's naruto?" She comes inside and see's he's already packed
"He's waiting at the gates" she turns to see that okami isn't that thrilled about the trip "You don't want to go just yet do you?, is there something you need to do first?" Okami looks at her and sighs "Yea, there is one thing…I was gonna go to the sakura festival tonight with a date in about an hour, but id completely forgot the date set to leave was today" Hinata thinks for a bit and has an idea "Go to the festival tonight" Okami gives her a confused look "what about naruto?
I cant just postpone the trip like that" Hinata heads for the door "I'll talk to him about that, you just go and have a good time" Okami just gives her a big grin "Thank you! Lily is gonna be really surprised, I owe you one!" She just walks out as okami prepares "Good luck okami-kun" she leaves with a smile on her face. "Hey lily are you ready?" lily looks at the picture on her desk "Rose I don't think Im gonna go" rose walks In the room she's wearing the purple kimono with her hair tied with a red ribbon and she's wearing red lip gloss "Why not? Just because okami isn't coming doesn't mean you have to be here moping around, you can still have fun" lily looks at rose, and gives her a small smile
"Sure can you help me with my hair?" rose smiles back "ok!" Jacob and poncho arrive at rose's house, he's wearing a dark green kimono with a gray belt "Hey are you guys ready yet!?" rose and lily open the door "Wow you guys look really good" rose looks down to see poncho "You brought him too?" lily pets poncho "I think its great he came, he can be my date" lily is wearing the gray kimono and her short hair has two black barrettes to keep the hair out of her face, rose cant hold her excitement "Hey lets go! I want to see if there's dango!"
