Chapter 1:The release

Sasuke was at the gate on Konoha. Sakura had pleaded with him not to go. But he had to destroy his brother Itachi. Sakura cried for him not to leave. He really was in love with him. But he had to do this. To him duty came before anything. Including love.

Sakura was crying over Sasuke leaving. She was walking the streets until she saw Naruto sitting in the ramen shop. (like always.)

"Hey, Sakura."

'Naruto... He's kind and nice. I know he likes you. Why don't you like him? He doesn't leave you to kill his brother.' (Inner Sakura.)

'I... I... I don't know. He used to be always asking if he could help. But, now, I only see him at ninja practices and sometimes here at the ramen shack. It's like his spirit has been crushed."

"Naruto? Are you feeling..."

"Sorry Sakura I got to go."

'What is up with him he didn't even finish his ramen. That proves something is wrong!' Sakura immediately started after Naruto. But the thing is he has become a much better ninja since he stopped being a goof off. Sakura remembered that it had all started about 3 years ago. Naruto had slowly stopped being crazy and energetic. It had started one day...

FLASHBACK

"Sakura re you feeling alright?" Asked Naruto.

"Naruto. I know that you like me. But the thing is... I despise you. I could never like you, let alone love you, no matter how hard I try." said Sakura. Naruto looked fine. He tried to smile but Sakura could see that he couldn't. She could see the tears in his eyes. It started to pour. Sakura could see now that Naruto was crying. She could see his eyes shining and yet... She felt no remorse. In fact... She chuckled inwardly to herself.

'Maybe now he'll stop bugging me."

The next day Naruto wasn't there for ninja practice. Or the next day... Or the next... Or the next. This when on for a week or so . Naruto finally started coming to ninja practice. Sakura missed his happy go-lucky attitude. She saw him and noticed something different about him. When he acted happy it looked ... forced?

'Of course he's not happy. You rejected him. You said no matter how hard you tried you couldn't love him' Sakura watched Naruto when he wasn't talking to them he stopped looking happy and looked more hurt than happy. Then as the days passed he stopped acting happy and become secluded and alone, Like Sasuke. Now the only time she really saw him was when he was at ninja practice or the ramen shop.

End Flashback

Three years ago. Sakura remembered that. Now they were 15 and Naruto hadn't changed since that day. Sakura wished that she could change her life. Then she saw a man ahead he didn't have an umbrella. Sakura walked up to him.

"You look tired. Here take my umbrella. You need it more than I do." Said Sakura.

"Thank you. To repay you I will give you this potion. It can change your life." said the old man.

Sakura looked at the small blue potion. She didn't know what he meant. She went home. She was laying on her bed looking at the bottle. She wondered what would happen if... She didn't remember what happened after that really. She did remember taking a large swig of it draining the whole bottle. She saw her room spin. After that... everything went black.

She woke up the next day and looked around. She was in her room. She remembered a dark-haired boy in the back of her mind. He was all fuzzy. She tried to remember who he was but then the figure just seemed to disappeared from her mind. She was hungry. She felt like ramen. She went to the ramen shop to eat. He was wearing a black jump-suit (orange is a crappy color for a jump-suit). He didn't seem to notice her come up. She looked at him and realized how cute he actually was.

'You know... He's pretty cute. I wonder why I never notice it before. I wonder if he likes me?'

'You just noticed that? Man, he USED to like you. But you said you could never like him. Why do you think he's been avoiding you? It would be hard to get him back.'

Sakura sat down quietly without making any noise. She turned to Naruto and started thinking of what to say. Before she could say anything...

"Hello, Sakura."

"OH! Naruto. You noticed, I thought that i was being quiet."

"Well, I have to go." Naruto looked back at the ramen shop and started to walk back.

'Maybe he's coming back to say hi to me!" Naruto came back and picked up his cup of ramen and began walking off. Sakura heard something like, "Forgetting my ramen... Not again... Hmmm... Wonder wh... Sakura."

Sakura was sad that Naruto didn't like her, But wait, she thought. Maybe I can still get him to like me!

'Yeah, if only you hadn't waited 3 YEARS!' But still, nothing could dampen her spirits about this! She was gonna get Naruto to like her. And with that she set off towards Naruto's house

Dragon: Hope it was good!
