When I was 15, Naruto was already 16. I quickly realized that I fell in love with him. However, I wasn't the only one!
When Naruto, Sakura, Sai and Yamato were on the mission to bring Sasuke back to Konoha, I met with Hinata again after a long time. We trained together and I helped her get stronger. I had never wanted to be strong, I just wanted to be able to protect my friends. For that, strength was never important to me, although it sounds pretty nonsensical. How am I supposed to protect my friends when I'm weak? Hinata told me a lot of things I missed. She also explained to me how her kekkei Genkai, the Byagugan, works. After a few hours of training, I started telling her about my secret kekkei Genkai. I knew I should keep it a secret, but I finally wanted to get rid of it. After all, I trust her more than anyone else! I just hoped Hinata could keep it to himself and no one would find out. A few weeks passed, meanwhile Naruto was back in Konoha and was quite exhausted from his mission. "I think he doesn't know who I am anymore!" I said to Hinata. Hinata was very shy about Naruto and never dared talk to me about him. She knows I'm in love with Naruto, but still helps me. It's strange, but I thank her for it! I just hope she isn't secretly mad at me. "Go! S-talk to him! You have nothing to lose !!", she answered with a stuttering voice. As Hinata and I continued arguing, Naruto came up to us. I was excited, as was Hinata. She ran away quickly and used as an excuse that she wanted to train with Neji. Now I was standing there alone and Naruto came right up to me. When he was right in front of me I started to shiver. "Um ... duu? Sakuya, right?" He asked. "Y-yes. I'm Sakuya, why?". "Um, could you please do me a favor?" He asked, scratching the back of his head. Inside I was so excited that I wanted to sink into the ground! "Yeah, sure, what's up?" Yeah, I'm a little embarrassed, but ... um .. you know, I was training with Jiraiya-sensei for a long time and so I didn't have any more missions .. And am now .. stupidly .. pretty broke .. And then I wanted to ask you if you could maybe ... well, lend me a little bit? ", asked Naruto. You could see that he was quite embarrassed. I am quite surprised that he even remembered me and then asked me for money. However, I had saved enough and gave him something. I'm uncomfortable with the money, but I just have other things on my mind. Why does he still know me? Why is he asking me of all people? Has he noticed that I like him a lot or so I love him? Oh My god, what should I do? When Naruto accepted the money, thanked him kindly and left, I only realized how embarrassing it was for him. "Well, I think I'll go to Hinata! She probably wants to know what Naruto wanted from me and I have to talk to her anyway! "When I stood in front of the Hyuga property, I felt pretty sick. I got so hot that I passed out. W-Where am I? Why am I so hot? Uhg .. It's so dark!" Hey, you're finally awake ? Are you all right? ", a voice asked me from across the room.I couldn't see anything. It was so dark and my vision was blurred. It wasn't until the person got closer that I realized it was Naruto. "Where am I? What, what happened?" I mumbled around me. "You passed out in front of the Hyuga, I only found you because I wanted to talk to you and thought that you are definitely with Hinata. I wanted to thank you again for the money and explain how embarrassing it is for me answer Naruto. "Oh, I'm really sorry that I caused you problems! I, I really didn't mean-", I answer and started in the middle of a sentence because I had a scratchy throat and just couldn't get a sound out . I'm all too embarrassed here, I just have to go! I'm not allowed to cause problems for Naruto, who knows what he's going through! I tried to get up, but it didn't work. "STOP, stay there! You have a fever, please lie down again! You can sleep here, I'll get my old futon!" Naruto yelled worried and pushed me back into bed. I could no longer think clearly, and I found it difficult to answer. I immediately started to sleep and just can't remember anything. I hear a loud noise, is that a kettle? Yes, definitely, it's a kettle. "Ahh are you finally awake? I'll make myself a pack of ramen, would you like too?" Naruto asked me. "Um, sure!" I answer pretty quickly. When I and Naruto sat at his kitchen table and shuffled our ramen together, I looked around a bit at his place. He lives a mess, but it's no wonder. After all, he lives alone just like me, right? "So, I'd rather go home then! I think Hinata is already looking for me. I'm really sorry and I'm very grateful that you helped me! I hope I didn't cause you any trouble?" I said and jumped up. I was still pretty weak and shaking, but tried not to show it. Naruto ate the rest of the ramen and got up. He came up to me and looked me in the face. I just couldn't look away, I was caught by his big blue eyes. It sounds a bit cheeky, but I really love it! "Well, I'll accompany you home! And I don't want to hear no, get it?", Naruto answered with a serious voice. It is very uncomfortable for me, so I live far on the border of the village and still all by myself. But it couldn't be changed, he went with me.
