Naruto Fan Fiction ❯ The Little Things In Life ❯ A Turn For The Worst ( Chapter 3 )

Hey everybody! Chapta #3 coming from where all my stories come from, STRAIGHT OUTTA MY ASS! …*coughs* well, enjoy…

 

 

 

 

It was a new day in Kohona, both literally and metaphorically speaking. Naruto, with his usual zest, had gotten ready for another day of training; eating a nice cup of instant ramen (I never did understand how ANYONE could eat ramen for breakfast…eeewww). As he jumped out of his apartment door, he knew that today was going to be a good day. After all, Sakura was actually looking at him now, instead of Sasuke! (HA! I SPELLED IT RIGHT!!!BWAHAHAHA!) On his usual walk to the bridge where he and the rest of Team 7 usually met Kakashi, Naruto thought about the best course of action for the day. Alright, he thought to himself. Probably the best thing to do is just comfort her, but I could always be a little romantic, couldn't I? After a few more moments of his internal debating, Naruto decided that he would go to the flower shop and get one for the pink haired ninja. He figured that one flower was just enough to comfort her and get some of his own feelings across at the same time. After he had tucked the flower safely away in his orange jacket, Naruto again headed off towards the bridge.

 

Sakura happily made her way towards the now familiar bridge with a renewed spring in her step. Though Sakura still felt hurt by her rejection from Sasuke, somehow Naruto, her knuckle-headed teammate that she had so long seen to be nothing more than a nuisance, had raised her spirits. When she arrived, she smiled to see Naruto had come early, as usual. Naruto caught sight of her and began to wake at her enthusiastically. She laughed at his enthusiasm, then returned the gesture. “Hey Naruto!” she stopped short of him and smiled.

 

“Hey Sakura,” he greeted. “What's up?” she shrugged her shoulders.

 

“Nothing much, just waiting for Kakashi Sensei…” Naruto chuckled.

 

“Ha, yeah…” there was a bit of awkward silence that followed, making both of them a little uncomfortable. Naruto's brain started to punch the side of his skull. Let's go kid! Give her the flower! DON'T MAKE ME GET KYUBI TO DO IT!! Naruto felt uneasy as he felt the Demon Fox chuckle inside of him. With a sigh to steady his nerves, Naruto began to reach into his coat. “Hey Sakura, I-”

 

“Sakura, I need to talk to you.” Sakura paled, she knew that voice very well. She spun around to find Sasuke standing in front of her.

 

“S-Sasuke! I…um…” Sasuke moved closer to Sakura his eyes staying locked on hers.

 

“Sakura, I just wanted to say…sorry. I was just concentrating, and, maybe you'd want to go to dinner with me tomorrow night?” Sakura's face slowly changed from shock to pure rapture.

 

“Oh yes! I'd love to go to dinner with you, Sasuke!” she leaned in and hugged the Uchiha boy. Sasuke returned the hug, placing his head on one of Sakura's shoulders. Naruto stood there, observing the spectacle with disappointment, anger and sadness. He glanced at Sasuke's head rested on Sakura's shoulder. Suddenly, his eyes snapped open and slowly looked at Naruto. He gave him a look that was far more devastating than his Sharingan, he gave him a look of triumph. Naruto, whose hand had been gently holding the flower, crushed it angrily. He stormed off towards town; he didn't care about the day's training anymore. All he cared about was what the hell Sasuke was going to do to Sakura.

 

Sasuke strode towards his apartment after the day's training. It had been strangely quiet without Naruto, and he liked it. He had purposely taken the long way home in hopes of seeing Naruto somewhere, but he hadn't bet on meeting him the way he did. When Sasuke cut through a narrow alley that would connect him to the main road, a shadow from the side of the wall sprang to life and pinned him against a trashcan. Sasuke smirked.

 

“You're definitely more stealthy when you're angry, huh Naruto?”

 

“Who the hell do you think you are?” Naruto spat. He had to use every ounce of his will to prevent himself from decking Sasuke in the face right there. Sasuke raised and eyebrow.

 

“What ever do you mean Naruto?” he asked, his voice dripping with sarcasm. Naruto violently pushed him harder into the trashcan.

 

“Don't act stupid! Why would you ask Sakura out when you don't like her?!” Sasuke's smirk deepened.

 

“For this.” Sasuke caught the lone tear running down Naruto's face. Naruto looked at the tear dangling on Sasuke's finger for a moment, before he could no longer control his rage.

 

“You Bastard!” he yelled. He sent a powerful blow to Sasuke's stomach, but the black haired ninja had seen it coming. He easily blocked the punch and used his other hand to knock Naruto to the ground. He let out a cold chuckle as Naruto tried to get his bearings.

 

“Naruto, It's just the same as always, you can't beat me. No matter how hard you try.” Naruto slowly rose to his feet.

 

“I-I'll tell Sakura” Sasuke laughed again.

 

“You think she'll believe you over me? come on loser, you'd be wasting your time. Now if you'll excuse me, I have to go get a good night's sleep if I'm going to be rested for my date.” Naruto just stood there, glaring at Sasuke as he disappeared into the busy street. Naruto angrily punched the wall.

 

“No…Sasuke, I WON'T let you hurt Sakura! Not in a million years!”

 

 

 

Wow, short chapter. Sorry I left you at a cliffhanger guys, but the whole date thing's gonna take a whole chapter, and let face it, I'm a sadistic person anyway! *laughs evilly* so tune in next time when Sasuke gets assassinated! Just kidding…MAYBE?!?!
