Chapter 1- Insecure
[...Third Person's POV...]
A group of young ninja sat under a large oak tree, all exhausted from training. The wind did little to soothe their burning bodies and the sun that shone brightly in their sore eyes did not help either. The coolness of the grass seemed to be the only thing to comfort them along with the fresh air, which they drew into their lungs willfully.
One of the ninga, a blonde haired boy, was still smiling after the torturous training. His smile was as bright as sunshine, even if sweat ran down his face like a waterfall.
"That was grrreat!" he cried. "We should do that again!"
The other two stared at him. One of those two, a young, slim girl with pink hair.
"Oh, come on Naruto!" she said. "You're just as tierd as the rest of us!"
The third student, a oy with blak glistening hair and dark eyes, sitting farthest away from the group said nothing at all, but shook his head. 'What a fool that dunce is.' He thought.
Naruto gave a foxy grin. "Yeah! But it was exhilerating!"
"Maybe we should do the training over again. You seem pumped up to do more Naruto," a new voice said.
An obviously stronger ninja approached the young teens. His silver hair hung loosly over his headband and his dark eyes stared at the blonde boy. Sakura glared at Naruto because of their teacher Kakashi's new idea. Naruto smiled bitterly. He didn't speak. He was lost for words.
"Dead-last comes up with another one of his_amazing_plans," Sasuke said in his cold voice.
Naruto glared at Sasuke. Sometimes he just made Naruto so angry.
'Damn you Sasuke,' Naruto thought. 'Why do you have to be such a cold blooded ass.'
Sasuke expected Naruto to say something back to him, but instead Naruto stared at the ground, with a frown on his face. Somehow, the group forgot about what had just happened and went back to relaxing after their tough training. However everyone seemed to forget except the two rivals.
[...Naruto's POV...]
Sasuke stared at me with his icy, merciless eyes again. A chill ran up my spine. Why did he always have to look at me that way? It's not like I had done anything to him in the past...except annoy him constantly. I smirked.
I hated Sasuke. It was a hatred that brought fire into my soul and errupted like a volcano. I envied Sasuke. All the girls liking him because he so damn silent. If everyone saw his true nature, then he would be the one that was looked down by the villagers, not me!
Honestly, I didn't know Sasuke's true nature. Maybe he was how everyone saw him. I, on the other hand, didn't always show who I really was. Oh sure, I was a prankster and a menace, but deep inside...well, I didn't want to think about it at the moment.
"All right. I am sure all of you have had your rest. Now we have a mission," Kakashi said.
Usually, I would have jumped up and yelled in excitement. But this time, I didn't. I tried to figure out whether it was me thinking too much, or possibly because my head was spinning.
Sakura looked over at me. I blushed. She rarly ever looked over at me. Maybe she liked me after all.
"Naruto! Did you hear what Master Kakashi said?!" she asked.
I frowned. 'Guess not'
I lifted my head up slowly and nodded. Even that made me feel sick. My eyes slowly inched towards Sasuke. I froze. He was staring at me again! Though his eyes didn't radiate coldness like usual. Did he look worried? I then shook it off. This headache must have a big affect on my eyesight.
Kakashi stood above me. "Naruto. Are you all right?"
I squinted my eyes in anger. "Of couse I'm all right!! Do I look like I'm not!? I'm fine, ok?!"
Everything was silent after my outburst. I chuckled weakly. I didn't mean to be so loud. My head was pounding. I couldn't think straight. What was going on?
Kakashi looked at me for a few moments and then breathed in deeply, unconvinced. I took a deep breath myself. The last thing I wanted was to sit down with Kakashi and talk about my problems.
"What's the mission?" Sakura asked.
"To..."
Everone waited.
"Find our little furry friend again." (a/n: you know, the cat)
Silence again. It took a few moments for it to sink in. I screamed.
"YOU MEAN THAT LITTLE FURBALL?! It escaped again?! This time, I won't only catch it, but I'll personally make sure that it_never_escapes again!!"
"Naruto," Sakura said. "Grow up. Think about it. We get the cat, then we can go home."
"All right," Kakashi said. "Let's go."
I rubbed my aching head. I shouldn't have screamed either. I swear my brain was going to explode. I groaned. I noticed that Kakashi and Sakura had already started leaving. Sasuke came up to me. Nervous at why he approached me, I stepped back slowly. I think he was being entertained by my action.
"Something wrong, dunce?" he asked, his voice tinted with amusement.
I glared at him, the pain was growing.
"We all know you're slow dead-last, but can you hurry a little?"
I bit my bottom lip. It was overwhelming.
Sasuke laughed. His cackling filled my head.
"Stop..it..." I whispered.
He chuckled. "What? Rookie?"
"Stop.it.Sasuke."
My head was going to burst!
"SHUT THE HELL UP!"
Sweat was running down my face. The pain in my head was unbearable, but I had to stop him. This time Sasuke had gone way too far. I looked in his eyes and for a moment, I swear that they looked hurt and even a little concerned. I shook it off. It had to be my imagination. Sasuke care for me? Was hell freezing over already?
I stood up and felt myself swaying with the wind. I felt light headed and weak, but I had to get away from Sasuke. I walked away from him, following the way Master Kakashi had went when my knees started to buckle. I tried to steady myself, but it was impossible. I fell to my weak knees and then on my back. My head was spinning, the sky was swirling above in a mass of different colours.
Suddenly, I felt someone lift my head and I felt warm and a little more comfortable. I tried to see the face above me, but all I could focus in on, were the person's eyes. Dark eyes that were filled with concern. I knew those eyes.
I breathed out a word before a dark cloud of sickness took me.
"S-Sasuke?"
