High Above That
As Naruto, Choji and Ino walked into the store Naruto's face lit up. He was never in a store before but now he is and it's amazing and huge and has thousands and thousands of things all around the place. He smiled and looked at Ino, then started running around which wasn't very good because there were strangers everywhere. Ino looked at him and yelled "Naruto no! Don't go too far you'll get lost!"
Naruto looked toward Ino and noticed how far he was away from her. Then he started panicking when a big crowd blocked his view from her. He started running toward where he saw her last and ended up bumping into her. He hugged her tight and looked up with teary eyes. Ino smiled down at him and laughed, "Hey you, it's okay" she then took his hand and smiled. "Don't worry I got'cha."
For the rest of the time in that store Naruto kept hold of her hand but had no choice but to let go when he had to try on the clothes Ino and Choji picked out. When they walked out of the story they were struggling all the bags and boxes full of stuff for his room. They got to Choji's truck and put everything inside the back. When they were done Choji sighed " Well that's all of it"
Ino smiled and laughed "Well yeah how about we bring everything back home and then go tooooo…"
Choji smiled "… Naruto's Surprise!"
Naruto look both confused and surprised at the same time "What surprise?"
Ino laughed "We got a surprise for you Naruto! Don't worry you'll love it!" She ran over to him, smiled and hugged him.
At the house!
"Okay Choji put the bed in front of the window and the dresser beside the bathroom door."
"Okay Ino!"
Naruto looked excited but inside he was very nervous. First he gets all this stuff then he gets a surprise, the last time he had a surprise he could walk for a week.
When they were done cleaning they went to the truck again. Naruto was getting more and more nervous with every step they took. Ino noticed and smiled "Hey, you don't have to be scared its okay!"
Naruto had no choice but to trust her he wasn't sure but he had to trust her, even though everyone he ever trusted hurt him with a "surprise" even when he didn't trust them he still got hurt by a "surprise".
When everyone was in the car, Naruto looked around and then at Ino. "Where are we going?"
Ino smiled and said "Sorry cant tell you, it's a surprise remember?"
Naruto nodded looking more nervous he didn't want to get hurt he loved it here the way it was, everyone is nice the way it is and they didn't hurt him yet. He wanted everything to stay the same he didn't want to get hurt.
Suddenly Choji stop the truck, which gave Naruto a fright. Naruto then looked over to the front of the truck and noticed there was a sign up in front of them. Choji sighed, "This isn't good it's a detour"
Naruto looked at Ino "Is this bad?"
Ino smiled "Yeah the festival made detours because it's on this road"
Naruto looked back toward the road and noticed the lights and big, tall rides and wished he was going there because he was never at a real festival before, he heard of it but never been to one, but instead he's going for his surprise. Ino smiled "Too bad now it'll take longer to get there"
Naruto looked down sadly and sighed he didn't feel like going to this surprise he was scared and hoped to not get there for a long while.
An idea pop into Ino's head "hey isn't that ice cream shop down this way, how about we stop there before Naruto's surprise" Choji smiled "Alright! Let's go!"
Naruto brightened up and smiled he wasn't getting his surprise right away that means he wont get hurt right away. When they got their ice cream they sat at a table with an umbrella attached to it and started to eat.
Ino looked to Naruto "Hey did you ever get a surprise before?"
Naruto nodded his head a little sadly. Then looked at Ino "Surprises aren't my favorite."
Ino looked at him curiously "Why not?"
Naruto looked up and sighed, "Because surprises always hurt"
Ino and Choji and stopped eating all together Ino looked at choji then back at Naruto "What do you mean they hurt?"
Naruto sighed again "All the surprises I get in my life hurt me mentally, physically or mentally"
Ino looked at him sadly "Oh Naruto is that why you're acting differently lately, are you scared we'll hurt you?"
Naruto nodded nervously and his smile faded. He laughed nervously and fake smile on his lips. Ino smiled "Oh Naruto, we wont hurt you!"
Naruto looked up surprised and smiled "Really?"
"Really, Silly!"
Naruto smiled "So what's my surprise?"
Ino laughed "Cute! But I'm not telling you that's a surprise remember?"
Naruto smiled slyly and started doing a puppy dogface. Ino laughed "Nope that's not going to work on me"
After they were back in the truck Naruto was happy and not as scared as he used to be it was great and he was soooo…. Happy! He was feeling great he was so happy and he felt so secure and safe, he couldn't sit still in his seat for a second, which was really hazardous.
He looked around and smiled then he noticed they were parking in a makeshift parking lot. There were people telling them where to park and they wore vests with bright orange and yellow on it.
Ino smiled and said, "Well, here we are!"
Naruto looked surprised and confused "where?"
Ino laughed "THE FESTIVAL!"
Naruto's face brightens and Choji smiled. As they got out of the truck Naruto started bouncing in place and smiling widely. He was so excited and happy he couldn't contain himself.
"Where is the festival? What way do we go and are we going on the rides?"
"Okay one it's that way" Ino pointed left
"Second yes we go that way," Choji pointed left
"And third yes we are going on rides!" Ino smiled.
Naruto smiled said what if I don't want to go on a certain ride?"
Ino smiled "then we'll go and you can just wait for us outside the ride okay?"
Naruto smiled and nodded "Okay!"
They went to the gate of the festival and smiled "Wow!" He smiled and laughed, "This is amazing!"
Ino smiled and paid for their all day pass and they went in. The first thing Naruto went to was the Ferris wheel. Ino smiled at him "I guess that's the first ride you want to go on, huh?"
