It was a bright, sunny day in Konohagakure, and Uchiha Leorina was laying out by the Gates. She had her flute by her side while she watched a few shapeless clouds go by. 'Today's the day Naruto-kun's supposed to come back.' she thought to herself. She pushed herself up on her elbows and then into a sitting position. "I wonder if he's coming soon." Leorina sighed and put her flute upto her lips. She blew into it and started to play Sakura, a Japanese melody she knew Naruto loved. While she played a figure appeared on the horizon. He seemed to like the tune. He walked closer and closer to where Leorina was sitting. Leorina, who had her eyes closed, didn't sense Naruto standing right next to her. The boy tapped her shoulder and smiled when she looked up at him. "N-Naruto?" She blinked and stared at him. "Heh who else?" He helped her up and looked her over. "Naruto!!" She hugged him tightly and smiled deeply when she felt him hug her back. "Leorina it's...really good to see you again," he held her tighter and rubbed her back, "how have you been, I missed you." Leorina blushed while Naruto's hand went over her back. "I-I missed you, too and I've been doing great." Naruto pulled away from her and noticed the red tint on her face. "That's awesome, I've been training and getting stronger." He looked into the village. "Hey Leorina let's go get something to eat." He grabbed her hand and pulled her to Ichiraku's Ramen Shop. Naruto looked up at the Hokage faces. 'Granny Tsunade's face is up there now too.' He smiled and looked at Leorina, who's head was down. "Hey Leorina, what's wrong?" Naruto asked concerned. Leorina shook her head and smiled at him. "Nothing nothing." She chuckled nervously. Naruto nodded. "Ok." They walked for five minutes to the Ramen shop. They ordered one huge bowl large enough for the both of them. Ichiraku looked at them and asked Naruto, "Is this your girl Naruto?" Naruto blushed red and Leorina spat out her ramen and started choking and weezing. "N-NO!! She's, it's not like, I-I mean..." He stuttered trying to find something to say while Leorina coughed and blushed hard. "I'm ok, but I have to uhh go somewhere now!" Leorina ate a few more bites of ramen and left her portion of the money to pay for it. "Leorina wait!" Naruto called out after her. "Sorry Naruto I have to be there now I'm sorry!" She continued to run off, waving behind her. Naruto waved back and finished off the ramen. He paid his portion and left. He spent the rest of the day settling back into Konoha and after he settled in he spent the last of the day hours in the training fields. |
