Naruto Fan Fiction ❯ Love can make you do crazy things ❯ Naruto's jobs and Rikka's begging ( Chapter 7 )

“Sakura!?”

 

-“Hun?” Naruto ran up to her and gave her a big hug.

 

-“I missed you...” he whispered into her ear and let her go. “How are you?” he asked out loud, pretending he hadn't whispered anything to her moments before. Sakura was blushing slightly and kinda confused.

 

-“Uhh....I'm fine.” she managed to mutter.

 

-“Woah, woah, wait! You guys know each other?” Sasuke exclaimed.

 

-“Yeah, it's a long story.” Naruto said “Common, let's go sit down and we can tell you the whole story.” So Sakura and Naruto told Sasuke about the run in at the alleyway and how they got to know each other. Later on Sakura looked at her watch.

 

-“I gotta go you guys.” she said sadly.

 

-“Want me to drive you home?” Naruto asked, jumping at the chance to spend more time with her.

 

-“No, I'm okay. I brought the Bug today. Bye!” She said while waving goodbye and walking away.

 

-“The Bug?” Sasuke asked after Sakura was out of sight.

 

-“It's the name of her car.” Naruto sighed happily and laid his forehead on the table.

 

*Does Naruto love Sakura?* Sasuke wondered.

 

-“Well, I gotta go too.” Naruto said, lifting his head from the table. “I got another interview.”

 

-“You didn't get the job at A&B Sound?” Sasuke asked.

 

-“No. Apparently, I had the wrong hair color. If I was a red head, I would've gotten the job” Naruto said nastily.

 

-“Kay, well good luck the next one. Where are you trying next?”

 

-“Replay Board Shop” Naruto muttered while grabbing his bag.

 

-“Woah, you must be really desperate! The pay there is terrible!”

 

-“Don't remind me. See ya later.” Naruto started jogging in the same direction Sakura had gone.

 

-“I guess I better be getting home too.” Sasuke said to himself and got and started walking to the front doors of the mall. *Does Naruto really love Sakura?* he kept wondering to himself sadly. *Wait a minute! Why do I care?! It's not like I love her! Right?.......*

 

 

~With Sakura~

 

When Sakura got back to her complex, Rikka was waiting for her.

 

-“Hey Sakura!” she called.

 

-“Hey, how's it goin'?”

 

-“Oh fine. I was just wondering....”

 

-“What do you want?” Sakura asked while rolling her eyes and turning the doorknob to her room.

 

-“I need to borough some money.”

 

-“Okay, how much?” Sakura asked, opening the door and walking inside.

 

-“Just 2,000$.....”

 

-“What?!” Sakura exclaimed. “For what?!”

 

-“I'm 2,000$ away from being able to buy a new car! I promise I'll pay you back next month!”

 

-“Look, Rikka, you're my best friend, but I don't have 2,000$ I can just give away.”

 

-“But Sakura! We're both getting our first pay checks next week. Can't I just have yours and pay you back the week after?!”

 

-“Okay, okay! I'll help you! But only if I get to ride in it.” Rikka smiled and gave her friend a hug.

 

-“Thank you soooooooo much!” She chanted

 

-“What a friend's for.” Sakura said hugging her back.

 

-“Well, I gotta go.

 

-“Where ya goin'?” Sakura asked. Rikka turned around and smiled at her.

 

-“I'm gonna go get my hair dyed purple!” Rikka said, walking to the front door.

 

-“Okay, see ya.” Sakura closed the door behind Rikka and walked back to the living room and collapsed onto her couch. *I wonder what Sasuke and Naruto are doing right now........* was her last thought before falling asleep.
