Naruto Fan Fiction ❯ Another day, Another memory ❯ One good day coming up! ( Chapter 4 )

Disclaimer: Naruto is not mine. Characters that you might know that aren't on the Naruto series are also not mine. Yeah, I know… sad.

Woah, I'm really happy about all the feed back I got. Thanks for reviewing!! Anyway here's the poll going:

NaruHina: 2

SasuNaru: 5

NejiNaru: 2

KibaNaru: 1

Seems like Sasuke's winning by… 3 pts! Neji and Hinata; you better hurry or… something^^

I'd like to tell everyone that you are voting for THE FINAL pair, which means what guy/girl(or even THING) will get paired to Naruto in the end. Don't worry about the pairings, because I'll surely add them up. About the character appearances, they won't come in these chapters, but I'll add them up in the future, so for those who want to vote for GaaNaru, you can vote now. Okay, on to the story…

Chapter 4 : One good day coming up!

"Caught you."

Naruto was quite surprised, not more than a handful of guys would help girls when they fall, more on the reason that guys wanted to get a flash of their panties. She looked to the guy who was currently helping her stand up. Tall, pale and lean, not to mention his long pearly black hair, which looked like it repelled tangles, was hanging limply on his back. Normal girls would have melted under his piercing yet cloudy gaze… but Naruto wasn't like most girls.

The guy placed Naruto back to her feet. She didn't look too awed though. She smiled her usual smile, which she didn't know, penetrated barriers of some well known men, including Sasuke. She dusted herself off, and began tottering away. The guy however, who suddenly had his cheeks aflame, hollered the girl to stop.

"Hey! Are you Uzumaki Naruto!?"

FLASHBACK

Neji hurriedly packed his things. It was science period, the final subject for the day, and actually, the final one for the whole summer. Summer break had officially started as Oro-sensei dismissed them, carrying away his 10-foot baby anaconda, and exiting to the faculty room. Neji, who was pacing with haste, was obviously excited about meeting Naruto. He wondered what kind of girl she would be, or how she looked… in his experience with girls, he wasn't too lucky. Even so, some people were still worse than him, take Rock Lee for example, whose hair looked like half a coconut shell; He attracted more toads than girls I'd say.

Neji wasn't unattractive though, in fact, girls would have probably voted him for "#1 high school hottie" if Sasuke wasn't there. He was attractive, but his personality was crooked. He thought too highly of himself, sure he was really intelligent, really athletic, really… good at everything! He was even entitled as student of the year, but all that, got to his head. Now he was as arrogant as they can get. A girl proposed to him before, spilling her heart out to him but he answered brutally. "Who'd want to go out with you? Don't degrade me". These words rung in the girl's ears and even attempted suicide. After this, girls seemed to have come past Neji.

He finally arrived at the gate but it wasn't quite as he expected it to be. People were surely taking time and Naruto wasn't there yet. He only heard that Naruto was blonde, and most of the time pigtailed, which was actually said by Sasuke, after their little bet.

Neji, who always looked up to himself, was mocked by the horned devil himself. Uchiha Sasuke had angered him for the last time and Neji demanded a match. Even if Sasuke was a lower batch man, he still wanted to… kick his ass. And so they made a bet, that if Neji can't make Naruto fall in love with him within 1 year, he'd have to admit that he was lower than Sasuke. Neji, as hard headed as he was arrogant, accepted, without thinking about the consequences, or without knowing the girl he was paired with.

And that's why he ended up at the front gates of Konoha All-girl's High School.

At that moment, 10 minutes had already passé. `What could be taking her so long? Maybe that Sasuke chickened out and decided not to deliver the letter…" He thought as he waited even more. What could be in this girl that could make the great Uchiha back out?

"Oi!! Uzu----" a boy calls. Neji suddenly remembered that this Naruto person's last name was Uzumaki. As quick as his feet could take him, he grabbed the blonde little girl whom the boy, who just shouted, referred to.

"Maki!!" He said as he made the girl face him. The girl however, looked at him rather shockingly. In fear, the girl dashed away. The boy who called earlier, ran after the girl and started calling out "Uzuki!! Uzuki wait up!!"

Crap. He got the wrong girl. That was just too embarrassing. Why was this Naruto making him suffer so? He paused and waited again. He wasn't much of a patient guy, but even if he didn't want to admit it, the anticipation was making his blood boil. What girl could make the #1 high school hottie, Uchiha Sasuke, so interested? This made him think more about what kind of girl that Naruto was, but that's when…

"Naru-" he heard beside him, and automatically capturing the one who had nearly blonde hair. Once again, he was embarrassed. The other girl continued what she was saying and formed "Narusegawa". Of course most girls wouldn't just let go of some guy who grabbed her out of the blue… and thus Neji got himself a slap.

He was starting to get bummed and his face still hurt from that Narusegawa's slap. Maybe Naruto decided not to meet with some stranger. With that in his head, he decided to head back home. As his back faced the gate, he felt some strange tug of fate, and he looked back, witnessing a girl falling.

END FLASHBACK

"Hey! Are you Uzumaki Naruto?"

Naruto turned back and saw the guy who had just helped her. How'd he know her name? She thought this as she walked toward him, completely forgetting about the letter, and preparing to kick him where it hurts the most. Maybe this guy had a bad intention, kidnapping perhaps? He didn't look like a guy who would do that, but neither did anyone, Naruto just thought crazy things, that's why she was `feared'.

"Neji-niisan!!!"

They both took at look at the gate, where Hinata stood, completely exhausted. She looked as if she ran from the very top of the Empire state building to the McDonalds below. `Neji?' Naruto thought as the name echoed in her head. `Sounds familiar… the guy at the ramen shop? No wait…' then it came to her, the guy of the letter! After realization, her eyes bolted to the young man she was about to infuse pain on. She blushed at the thought; she was about to hurt the guy who would treat her to her first summer experience!

Hinata finally arrived, catching her breath. She would have to confront Neji about the `beach'. Maybe he'd take her along as he did to Naruto? Of course she was going just because Naruto was there; she didn't like going to the beach at all. Since the day that Naruto saved her from a gang of bullies, all she wanted was to stay at Naruto's side. This time, she will not let the chance slip away. Looking at Neji, she said "Neji-niisan, take me along with you and Naruto!"

Naruto, who was embarrassed stiff, didn't flinch, or maybe, couldn't flinch at all. Hinata closed up to her saying "Naru-chan, we can come together ne?" Neji started to get aggravated. He hadn't even agreed yet! Sheesh, being that his Hinata-sama, an upper clansman, was the one who asked, he probably couldn't decline anyway. However, as he looked at the pigtailed girl in front of him, who was currently blushing, he thought to himself… `I had already won the match, Uchiha…"

Hinata tried her best to knock Naruto back to her senses. Of course she didn't want to use her Hyuuga-style taijutsu, she wouldn't want to pierce her dear Naruto's perfectly soft skin. She doesn't seem to be waking up at Hinata's careful shaking, and Neji was just not helping. Suddenly, Naruto straightened up, as if going to be attacked. "I sense…" She managed to blurt out as she pulled out her ball pens from her pocket, as she would to a shuriken or a kunai, if she had one.

"Oi…"

Aha! What she sensed was right! The Uchiha was standing behind her, looking at Neji, who got delirious about himself for a moment. "I can't just let you take the catch, can I? I'll come too…" Sasuke said with his usual smirk and glaring eyes. `Just as I thought I can be with Naruto' Hinata thought as she moved back in despair. The 3 people there seemed to have an internal fight… Hinata can almost feel the electro magnetic waves that each of them emit. Just as the fight got more intense…

"I'll come too." 2 voices from behind said, and they were both girls. Ino and Sakura showed themselves in a flashy way, just like when the power rangers appear at the scene of a crime. They looked as if they were prepared for a fight, and actually, they had to be. The sparks on Naruto's eyes just reached the visible point, and that's when it gets dangerous. Upon hearing Sakura-chan's voice, Naruto went back to the point of no return, the point where she can only see Sakura at the middle of a field full of flowers.

"Ah~ Sakura-chaaan!" Naruto said, her eye's tearing up from joy, as she lunged toward her. She didn't even get the chance to touch her when he hit the ground with a thwack. Yes, Sakura was lethal… but Naruto was just the kind of guy or gal, who would stand back at the sight of love. "Sakura~~~" And once again she met the floor, or the now broken pavement. She got up and up and up, and Neji started to have huge sweat drops `Wha-What kind of girl is this??'.

From nowhere, more company arrived; Naruto's band of brothers has come!! And yeah, they also said the following:

"We

Will
Come

Too!!" And Kiba was extra extra loud this time. Everyone was just loud and rumbling. Neji felt his head was about to crack. Sasuke was still in his `I'm-gonna-kill-you-with-my-death-glare' mode. Hinata was cowering at the side, fumbling with her hands. Kiba was still very much reciting "we will come too!" Shikamaru, Chouji and Shino were just about to leave. Sakura and naruto were still at it and Ino was just worshipping Sasuke.

"Okay!!!! You can all come!!!!! It's flight is tomorrow at 6am!!" Neji said out loud. The vein on his head just popped and blood was dripping all over! Yeah, all over! But anyway, silence came after that and they all seemed to head home. After a while, Neji was left the same spot and didn't even move a muscle. The only thing is, there was now a pool of blood beneath him. He collapsed, as any normal person would…

"Heal!!" A girl clad in some weird purple outfit exclaimed. "Hi! I'm priestess Yuufa! Want to party?" she said to Neji, who had woken up, fully healed. Behind the girl was another guy, a knight in shining armor. "Yuufa, let's go…" the knight who had long blonde hair said. "Keough-niisan!! Ah wait, there's someone… Ara?" She turned to the now gone Neji. "He's gone… oh well, let's go back, ne niisan?" She said to the knight. "You and your crazy warps…" He said before they vanished after some unexplainable light.

Neji woke up at his bed, with bandages on his head. `O_O Wha-what a weird dream!!'
