Setting: Konoha Gakuen

A/N: Hi there!I know the story might be a bit lame since this is my first fanfic ever. I'm not exactly a NaruHina fan but my best friend likes it so much that since she has done so much for me already, this is the least I can do. I like Naruhina but not so much, although I really like Sasuke Uchiha. Please be kind with me cause I really don't know how to make a really wonderful story but please R&R. I accept criticisms and please tell me everything you like and don't like in my story. I might have some bad grammar and spelling errors so please tell me. Thank you and I hope you enjoy it! ^_^

Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto. Too bad…

Chapter 1 - The meeting

"…Aahh…" said Naruto with a big yawn.

He was still half asleep. He looked at his alarm clock. His eyes suddenly widened showing his surprised reaction.

"Aaahh! Is this really the time? I'm so gonna be late! Oh man! Why does this have to happen again!" said Naruto while starting to panic.

He rushed out of the covers and quickly got dressed. He zoomed out of his apartment and ran straight to school without even fixing his hair, brushing his teeth or even taking a shower. [A/N: gross! Haha!]

Naruto Uzumaki, a highly enthusiastic and energetic fifteen year-old high school student who was in his first year of high school is yet again rushing for school to get there on time.

"Finally!" said Naruto while approaching the school gates. He was panting and sweating.

He ran up the stairs since his classroom is on the second floor of the building. He was about to turn at the corner when he suddenly bumped something or someone.

"…Ow…What was that?" Naruto whispered as he rubbed his head. He saw a cute girl who looks like they are of the same age. The girl sat on the floor while holding her head with her left hand. She looked like she was a bit dizzy.

"Are you okay, miss? I'm sorry about that, I'm such a klutz!" Naruto held a hand out to her. The girl blushed. She seems hesitant whether she should take the hand offered by Naruto or not. But it also seems that her hip is a little bit painful because of the sudden fall so she had no choice but to accept it.

"…oh, no…I'm fine…thanks…" the girl assured while reaching out to Naruto's hand.

"That's great." Naruto grinned. The girl blushed but started to pick up her stuff which fell when they bumped to each other. Naruto saw this and decided to help her. At the last item, they coincidentally reached out for it at the same time. Naruto accidentally touched her hand and the girl flinched.

"Sorry, did I scare you?" Naruto asked.

"No…sorry…" the girl bowed her head. "and thank…you…"

Naruto was surprised then he rubbed his head. "Haha, you shouldn't be thanking me…I bumped on you remember? And are you okay? Your face is a bit red…do you have a fever?" Naruto asked with concern in his eyes.

"Well, no…I'm just…not used to…uhm…talking to…well, to boys…" the girl shyly whispered.

"Oh, is that so?" Naruto smiled. "What if, you have friends which are boys? Then you won't be shy talking to people anymore, especially to guys like me…well, do you have guy friends?" asked Naruto.

"Well, not really…I talk to boys…sometimes too…because of my duties…but I don't know if I'm a friend…to them…" the girl lowered her head…she looks sad.

"Then, I shall be your friend!" Naruto proclaimed happily. "Let's be friends shall we? Then you can have more and more friends! Wouldn't that be great?" Naruto smiled.

The girl just stared at him with a light blush on her face. She was speechless. It was the first time a guy asked to be her friend. Naruto suddenly remembered that he was running late for class.

"Sorry but I have to leave now." Naruto apologized. He then dashed away leaving the girl standing there. "See you later!" said Naruto while waving goodbye. The girl just stood there, surprised of the sudden turn of events. After a few seconds she went on her way but still had that light blush on her face.

While Naruto was running to his classroom, he had a vague thought that the girl he just met was somehow familiar but he was not sure about it. Then he remembered that he forgot to ask her name. 'I'm so stupid' Naruto thought.

When he reached his classroom, he opened the door only to find his childhood best friend staring out the window. Kiba looked at him and was surprised.

"Wow, now that's a big surprise…you came a whole lot earlier than usual, and I really mean a whole lot earlier." Kiba said with astonishment.

"What do you mean? But more importantly, where are the others?" a confused Naruto asked.

"Why don't you take a look at that clock over there, it might answer your question." Kiba pointed to the wall clock near the shelves.

"What? I'm an hour early? That clock is probably broken." Naruto was so surprised.

"No stupid! Your clock is the one that's broken. You probably winded up an extra hour on your clock by mistake last night." Kiba was a good guesser.

"…maybe…" Naruto was ashamed. "But, I rushed my butt to get here and this is what I get? I didn't even take a bath!"

"Oh, so that explains the smell…hehe" Kiba laughed.

"I'm not smelly! I was panicking! Geez, get off my back!" Naruto was pouting.

"Haha…I'm just kidding!" Kiba was still laughing, "but make sure you fix your clock. You know very well that you need the sleep."

"yeah, I'll do that." Naruto was back to his normal self.

"Since we have so much time in our hands, what about we play ball at the gym before the basketball club comes?" Kiba asked.

"Sure! This is gonna be good!" Naruto grinned. "Then let's have a bet. The loser will treat the winner to some lunch."

"Alright, I'm up for the challenge!" Kiba agreed.

The both of them played basketball in the gym until the basketball players came to practice. Since they were both sweaty, they decided to take a shower at the school's shower area. [A/N: The guy's shower area to be exact.]

Kiba Inuzuka, Naruto's childhood best friend along with his other friends always supported Naruto. They were friends since pre-school. They are of the same age.

"Ooohh! That was fun! Now, you'll treat me to some ramen! Hahaha!" Naruto cheered with a big grin.

"Fine, you win, but you were just one point ahead of me." Kiba raised an eyebrow.

"But as the saying goes, 'a win is still a win', right?" Naruto grinned.

"Alright," Kiba sighed. "let's go back, school starts in ten minutes."

"Sure!" Naruto is so happy that he can't stop smiling. [A/N: He is always smiling isn't he? Such a carefree guy...]

Whew! Finally, It's finished!

It's a short chapter, sorry about that…but I'll do my best on the next chapter.

It might take some time for me to upload my next chapter cause I'm busy with school.

I hope you liked it and please continue on reading my fanfic until the end! Thank you so much! Please Read and Review!
