I just went to the dentist an hour ago and my gums are STILL bleeding like hell.
Disclaimer: Pretty much the only Naruto-related thing I own is Itachi's necklace. Other than that, I don't own anything.
Special thanks to my friend Chelina for beta reading!
Sarada walked home, her mind filled with questions. What's wrong with me? Why... him?
The raven still could not understand for the life of her why she would fall for a dumbass like Boruto. "He's a moron," she said out loud, just to convince herself. "He's a moron and I don't like him..."
"Who's a moron, honey?" Sakura appeared in the doorway of their house, making Sarada jump. Her green eyes narrowed dangerously. "If I find that Naruto has been bugging my child..." She cracked her knuckles menacingly. Sarada gulped.
"Uh... No, Mom, I was just... um, talking to myself," Sarada quickly blurted out before realizing that what she said made her seem like a schizopherniatic idiot.
Sakura raised an eyebrow, but she didn't question her daughter. "Well, dinner's almost ready, so why don't you come in and clean yourself off?"
"Sure..." Sarada plopped down on the front porch and started yanking her shinobi shoes off. So much for admitting to Mom about Boruto.
Suddenly the Uchiha saw a familiar figure walk down the road. She squinted her eyes. Was that...? No way. Her glasses were probably broken or something. There's no way he would go to her house.
"Um, hi," Boruto mumbled when he saw Sarada, who was still gaping at him. "Dad forced me here to.. apologize, I guess?"
Sarada stared at him, still in shock. Boruto, the Boruto that she hated/had a crush on, came to apologize? Her face flushed, but she still managed to choke out, "About what?"
"Uh... about training today. He said I was acting like a total brat." Boruto replied, his oh-so-amazing eyes trained onto Sarada.
We had training today? Sarada thought idiotically.
Finally she managed to gather her thoughts from a pile of mush of her brain into actual sentences. "Well, you kinda were," she said with a laugh.
Boruto grinned. "Sorry about that. So... truce?"
"Truce," the raven replied, feeling amused.
The two sat in peaceful silence together, watching the sun set. Sarada almonst wanted to scream and jump around like an idiot. Ohmygodohmygodohmygodhestouchingmesomebodyhitme
Unforutnately, Sakura, at that moment, decided to stick her head out the door and interrupt. "Sweetie, don't you want to come- HEY BLONDIE, WHAT ARE YOU DOING TO MY DAUGHTER, HUH?!"
Boruto yanked his hand away from Sarada's, blushing furiously. "Um, s-sorry Sakura-san, I-I was just..."
"DON'T YOU DARE TOUCH MY DAUGHTER AGAIN, YA HEAR?! AND PASS THAT MESSAGE ON TO THAT DAMN NARUTO! NOW GET THE HELL OUT OF HERE!"
"Mom!" Sarada protested, but Sakura was in too much of a rage to listen. "IF I SEE YOU LAY A SINGLE FINGER ON SARADA, I WILL TURN YOU INTO A PILE OF UNGRATEFUL DUST! MOVE ALONG, YA PERVERTED FREAK!"
The blonde smirked to himself. "Okay... see ya 'round Sarada."
"Bye," Sarada replied, distracted at the prospect of her mom pretty much turning into a demon.
After Boruto left, the Genin turned on her mother. "What the hell was that for?!"
So now we learn that Sakura is a way too overprotective parent. What fun.
Update next Wednesday, at the latest!
