Emotion. What is it? What can it ever be but trouble? I don't understand why he can be so emotional. Proper ninja aren't supposed to feel anything. So why is it he cares so much about everything?

What emotions are there? I know that they are divided into categories, but there is such a wide range of emotion that it is hard to believe one person could feel all of it.

Love, joy, surprise, anger, sadness and fear.

Strangely, he was like a woman on PMS. Moody, uncontrollable, unpredictable. But it seems to be what compels me to stay near him and study him. He is fascinating in every aspect. His face and body were perfect, well toned and muscled. His eyes are beautiful, reflecting the skies that he loved to take naps under. His hair portrays his beautiful, happy-go-lucky personality.

Even though I don't understand emotion, I want to learn. I want to be able to learn from him, I want him to be my teacher. He is the kind and gentle soul that everyone befriends and loves. I want to love him too.

This boy is so compelling. I have to try even though he hates me so. Is it wrong to want his love and affection? I just want approval. He loves Sasuke. He loves Sakura. He loves Kakashi, Tsunade, and Jiraiya. But he will not love me.

What do I do to earn his friendship? His love? How can he think so highly of Sasuke when all he did was throw him down and beat his heart broken? I can see it on his face, the emotion of hurt, longing, and desperation. How can he think that way of a man who betrayed him and not love me?

I do try, I honestly do. I try to be the rival Sasuke was. I try to persist like Hinata does. I try to smile, but I just can't feel it like Sakura does. I can't play around with him like Kiba does. I cannot accomplish anything with that boy. What will it take for me to get to his heart, after I have tried so many things?

Nevertheless, I will keep trying. I would give anything to be welcomed warmly by him. To be seen lovingly in those beautiful crystalline eyes. What I wouldn't give to have him joke with me, to have him hug me and laugh. Possibly even love me more than a friend. I don't understand love, but this warm feeling in my chest, this tingling coursing through my body every time he smiles…

Oh Naruto, can you not see how much I desire your acceptance?
