A/N-Okay, so this is my first fan fiction, and I'm not that good at writing, but I'll try. If you can give me advice on how to improve, that would be nice. I'm open to all. I don't own Naruto (though I wish I could.)

A young boy sat on a swing set. He was about eight years old. He had an orange jacket, and blue pants. His spiky yellow hair moved with a weak breeze blowing against his face. His blue- sapphire eyes usually full of amusement and laughter during class were now filled with despair and sorrow as he saw each of his classmates walk away from the school, hand-in-hand with their parent(s). The breeze tickled his face, making him moving the thin whiskers on his cheeks. He was Uzumaki Naruto.

"Mom, guess what?" a young boy asked his mother.

"What is it?" she responded.

"Today, I learned how to create clones of myself!"

"That's great! My little boy is growing up so fast, mommy is proud of you!"

"Awwww, mom, don't say stuff like that, it's embarrassing." Naruto watched as the 2 disappeared off into the sunset, and he decided it was time for him to go home as well. He got off the swing set, and walked home slowly, leaving a faint trail of tears.

Uchiha Sasuke had on a black sweatshirt, and light grayish pants. He gazed at the lake from the dock he was sitting on, as well as the sunset. Sasuke was popular among the girls in his class, because they loved the way he acted: emotionless, cool, ect. He could fool everyone, especially Naruto, but when he came to this lake, he couldn't hold his feelings in. He couldn't hide the fact that he wanted to smash everything his black eyes could see that had anything to do with him.

"Hey Sasuke!" a voice called from behind. Sasuke turned around, and saw Naruto, the class clown. The blond boy walked to the dock, where he was sitting, and sat next to him.

"What do you want?" Sasuke asked strictly.

"I always see you when I'm walking home. Why do you come here?"

"None of your business Dobe (loser)." Naruto threw a rock into the lake, and it made a splash while sinking. After the rippling circles disappeared, Naruto saw pain and sadness in Sasuke's eyes.

"Why are you so depressed?" Naruto finally questioned, breaking the long silence.

"Non of your business, so go away!" Sasuke shouted.

"This place means something to you right? Did something special happen here with your family?"

"Shut the hell up!" Sasuke gave Naruto a solid fist, sending him into the lake. Naruto walked back up to him, his clothes dripping with water.

"You're lucky, you at least got to experience a parent's love. I've always wondered how it felt like. We know each other fairly well, lets become friends." Naruto offered, and held out his hand.

"Why should I? You're just a idiot that doesn't know anything." Sasuke sneered, and looked away.

"I may not be smart when it comes to books, but I can feel other people's pain. I was rejected and mistreated by everyone ever since I could remember, so I know how much pain your suffering. Let it all go, and take my offer!" Naruto gave a big grin, and stared at the boy. Sasuke took one last look at the lake, smiled back (in that cool way Sasuke gives), and shook his hand.
