I do not own Naruto

Junior High

The Game and the Finish

It was half time of the Konoha Junior High and Koha Junior high football team finals and Konoha was ahead 28 to 14. Naruto scored 3 touchdowns and Kiba got a pick six (Interception touchdown). Sasuke wasn't playing his best and they only scored because of Naruto skill in finding the ball. As Coach Asuma was modivating them Naruto was thinking of Sakura and how when he wins the game he was gonna beat Sasuke, when that happens Sakura would like him. He didnt even notice every player and coach stare at him tell Kiba nudged him in the rib.

"Huh?"

"Naruto get your mind in the game, say what i just said back to me, this is important." Asuma strictly told him.

"Ummm sorry can you repeat it coach? Hehe" Naruto rubbed the back of his neck and snickered, the breaded coach sighed.

"When i give you two fingers on both hands that means your gonna get a screen pass." Coach said in a amussed tone

"Why don't we just call a screen" Naruto interrupted

"Cause... then when you catch the ball, which you should god damn do, then lateral it back to Sasuke for him to run it in"

"WHAT!" Naruto blurted out. He looked over to the QB only to see him smirking.

"Got a problem dobe?" He said standing up.

"We all now you cant run for shit and your not playing your greatist either teme." Naruto said now also standing then he turned to Asuma and spoke calmly

"You cant be serious Coach?"

"OF COURSE, THIS IS THE FINALS"

"exactly" Naruto said even more calm then before, every player snickered.

Now Sasuke jump up and started at Naruto.

"You don't trust me as your Quarter Back?"

"Its not like a don't trust you, i do when it comes to throwing a football. But not when running with one." Naruto said leaning against the door frame. Hating the teen in front of him.

Sasuke was just about to reply when the heard the buzzer indicating thats its time to go back out on the field.

As they were heading out Asuma stop Naruto and whispered.

"Your not gonna do it are you."

Naruto giving signature grin whispered back.

"I got a girl to impress."

It was coming up on the 2 minute warning in the 4th quarter. Some how Koha Junior was in the lead by 3 and Konoha had the ball 20 yards from the end zone. As the were lining up Naruto look over at their bench and saw Coach Asuma give him 2 fingers on each hand. Naruto sighed and look over to Sasuke and gave a little nod. Sasuke smirked and snaped the ball knowing what was coming.

As soon a Naruto heard the shuffle of feet he sprinted toward the direction of Sasuke. He looked up just in time to see him throw the ball at him, he caught it with no strain and continued to run.

Sasuke wasn't surprised to see him run down the field rather then pass him back the ball, but he wasn't mad either, he new the only person to score right now was Naruto, even though he hated him and was jealous of his playing abilities, he still wanted to win.

As Naruto ran he heard the cheering of the crowd, but he only thought about scoring for Sakura right now. He saw in front of him 2 defenders, easy, he quickly side stepped one and spun around the other. Now he was in the open just ten yards to go. Now five and at the last moment he saw out the corner of his eye a player ready the tackle him from the side. When he was at the 1 yard line he wanted to play it cool so he jumped backwards just i time so the player diving towards him dove in front of him. He then stepped over him coolly into the end zone. Without a dance or any sigh that he was the best he handed the ball the the referee and walked back with a swarm of players around him and the crowd going fucking nuts as he put it.

When he was walking back he saw a glimpse o pink in the bleachers then 2 pairs of emerald eyes scanning over the field. He new exactly how she was looking for but it wasn't him, so why couldn't he keep his eyes off of hers? If someone was looking over Naruto it was being very kind to him today because right when he was about to look away from her he caught her glance at him for a second then when she noticed him looking at her she looked back a smile and wave. This made Naruto super nervous and he tried and waved back but before he did he thought about it in is head and everything caught up with him, he just won his team the championship and Sakura-Chan is smiling and waving at him. Thats when he tripped over nothing and fell on his face, causing most of the team to fall with him. The bleacher exploded with laughter and Naruto totally embarrassed got off laughed it out then turned backed to the crowd to find her again but where she was seating there was no pretty green eyes.

As he was heading out of the locker room after an hour of partying he was warn out. Not because of the game or party but of the nervousness about confessing to Sakura. Right when he was about to just go home fate told him the opposite. He was just about to turn a corner but he saw head of pink sitting alone a bench reading. As he walked over hes heart started to slow down and everything was calm, thats how he felt whenever he was around her.

"Sakura-Chan?" He said in a low calm voice.

"Huh, oh Naruto great game." She said with a smile whiling putting her book on her knee.

He grinned his grin and scratched the back of his neck.

"Hehe thanks"

Now he was getting nervous.

"What are you doing here aren't you supposed to be at the party." She said frowning a little.

"Nah, it wasn't all that great, also I wanted to find you and ask you a question, plus Sasuke was just shouting in my face about how he won the game" He said smirking hoping she might understand what Sasuke really is in Naruto mind. A giant pile of lying dog shit that thinks hes better then everybody else. Sakura interrupted his nice thoughts with a stab to the gut.

"Well didn't he?"

Naruto was shocked, he wanted to state that he was the one that won the game, but he didn't want to sound like Sasuke, not in a long shot.

"Well he contributed"

"No, without him you guys couldn't have one, Sasuke-Kuns the best." She said proudly

"Your wrong!" Naruto shouted while taking a step forward. Realizing that he fucked up he quickly tried and fixed it but it just made it worse.

"uhh sorry didn't mean to do that, i think the whole team contr-"

Now Sakura stood up a took a step towards him pushing a finger on his chest

"You think your better the Sasuke-Kun!" She said more of a statement then a question.

"WHAT, i never said that!" Naruto jumped back with his hand a the air. Now she started to yell

"I know you Naruto you think your the best player well your wrong, Sasuke-Kun is so much better then you, if he was blind he would be still be better then you. You-"

"Why do you like him so much" Naruto calmly said looking at ground and shuffling his feet.

"Cause hes better then you at football!" She still was shouting at him

"I never ask why you liked him over me, just why do you like him so much" he said in a little more saddened tone.

Sakura didn't seem to notice his mood and kept spiting at him.

"WHAT THAT SUCH A EASY ANSWER! he so hot and so cool, plus he doesn't fuck around at school and mess with the teachers, he keeps to himself and never bothers me when i'm in a bad mood, and hes always alone ever since his parents died nobody and else's parents have died at our school, i want to help him out of his loneliness."

Naruto loudly murmured "What bout me?" but she didn't seem to hear

He also noticed that she calmed down and so he also started to relaxed, he loved her very much but she was fucking terrifying when she was mad. He was thinking over what she said when he heard Sakura voice and brought him back.

"you should go home Naruto, Sasuke coming in a couple of minutes and he doesn't like me around you. Good plus I think that you should take shower, your not all the nice smelling.A"

This didnt make Naruto anger but sad, heartbroken. The most important person on earth to him pointed all his flaws out and told him how perfect another boy is and she thinks nothing of it. He turned away before the tears could and started to walk toward his apartment.

He whispered something that Sakura didn't get. then said coldly

"Forget Sakura-Chan have a good night with Sasuke.

And he walked back to his apartment were no mother was cooking dinner, no father to ask him about his game and no love to cherished, just a broken heart and a set of spiky blonde hair.
