Ch1: I think I know him

Butterflies flew from flower to flower, collecting the nectar, in the park of Konoha; it was filled with children laughter.

"Higher Naruto-kun," a girl with pink hair and emerald eyes laughed as the boy with wild blond hair and cerulean eyes pushed her on the swing.

"Okay Sakura-chan," Naruto pushed her a bit harder so she could go higher.

Hearing her laugh made the boy laugh, the two 5-year-olds were the best of friends, their parents knew each other during high school and college, and they agreed that both Naruto and Sakura would make a good couple. Though Sakura and Naruto's mom's began to imagine their children getting older and getting married and having some kids, the fathers just groaned. After swinging on the swing, Sakura took Naruto's hand and the two were running on the soft luscious grass, while Sakura was getting some water from her mom, Naruto notice a daisy and picked up, he walked up to Sakura and gently tapped her one the shoulder.

She turned around and saw Naruto's hands behind his back, "I've got something for you Sakura-chan."

Her eyes widen with delight, "What'd you get me Naruto-kun?"

Blushing, he held the daisy in front of her, "I got you this daisy."

Sakura happily took the flower and gave him a hug, Naruto's blush deepened even more, causing Sakura's mother to giggle while Kushina smiled in amusement. The young rosette put the flower in her hair causing Naruto to smile.

"So how do I look," she brought her face a bit close to him.

The young began to stutter but came out with, "You look beautiful Sakura-chan."

"Aw isn't that sweet, little Naruto's got a crush on my daughter," Sakura's mother, Hikari, squealed in delight.

"Oh stop that Hikari, you're making my son embarrassed, no wonder he's shy around girls," Kushina giggled.

"Oh please, he seems perfectly fine with Sakura, don't you Naru-chan," the young blond backed away a bit in embarrassment.

Sakura simply giggled, "Naruto-kun, are you still shy around me?"

"Yes," he whispered softly.

"Naruto," Sakura's father, Raiden, gently placed his hand on the boy's shoulder and lowered himself up to Naruto's height, "A man shouldn't be shy around women. Instead he should be brave, for example, I remember meeting your father back in high school, and boy was he shy to talk to your mother. I would always watch him try to ask her on dates, and he would talk to himself in the men's bathroom trying a pick up line, but then with a little confidence from me," he jerked his thumb at himself, "he finally had the bal- I mean guts to ask your mother out."

Naruto nodded his head, Sakura and him, ran off to go on the slides, the two husbands joined their wives.

"Don't you think that we should tell them," Kushina asked her husband Minato.

Hikari shook her head, "I still don't think that this is a good idea, I mean those two known each other their whole lives."

Minato let out a sigh, "I know but it can't be helped, besides I have to move if the business needs to expand."

"Moving to Mizu no Kuni (Land of the Water)," Raiden whispered to himself, while Minato nodded.

"Until I retire, Naruto will take the Namikaze Corp when he's older," Minato explained.

"But still," Kushina looked down at the ground, "They're so attached to each other; it's just not right Minato."

"I know Kushina," the older blond put a hand on his wife's shoulder.

"But you three will come back here when you have the chance right?" Minato answered Hikari's question by nodding his head.

"Of course," Kushina implied, "We would want to check up on how Naruto's future wife, and so you two can see how much he's grown."

After a while, the two children stopped playing and slept on the grass, Naruto had his arms open wide, Sakura cuddled against his side. The two wives picked up their children an brought them to each of their family car.

"So we'll see you tomorrow," Kushina asked as a reminder.

Hikari nodded, "Yep, see you three tomorrow." And with that, they left the park.

Just as soon as Hikari put the chicken in the oven, a knock was heard on the door, "Coming," once she opened the door she saw Minato, Kushina, and Naruto. "Come in, come in." Once they entered, Hikari called her husband and told Naruto that Sakura was in the den watching T.V. "So did you tell Naruto," Kushina froze and nodded.

"You should've seen the look on his face," the Namikaze wife whispered sadly.

"Oh Kushina," Hikari hugged her friend in comfort.

Both Naruto and Sakura happily sat next to each other, both Hikari and Kushina took out their cameras and took a picture of the two children. They took another one with Sakura feeding the embarrassed and shy Naruto a piece of chocolate cake, after eating the desert, Hikari shooed the two kids into the den.

Sakura was trying to hear what the adults were talking about, but after a while she got bored and decided to play with Naruto, but when she saw him, the boy looked upset.

"What's wrong Naruto-kun," she asked as she sat down next to him.

He didn't bother looking at her, but answered her question, "I'm moving."

"No, you can't, you're my best friend Naruto-kun," she jumped into his arms and cried.

He began to feel his own tears coming up as well, he hugged his best friend close, "I don't want to move either, but my dad says that we have no choice."

"That's not fair," she sobbed into his chest, "Who's going to play with me and push me on the swing?"

"I'm sorry Sakura-chan; I really wish that I could stay here with you." After they cried, Sakura wiped a tear from her eye and looked at Naruto.

"Promise me Naruto-kun, that you won't forget me," he nodded, "Promise me that you'll wait for me, and when we met, we'll get married, okay?"

She pulled out her pinky finger; Naruto wrapped his pinky around hers. "I promise Sakura," the two happily smiled and hugged each other.

Naruto's father walked into the room and called Naruto, "Son, we're leaving."

The two separated, boldly, Naruto kissed Sakura on the cheek, "I love you Sakura-chan, and I'll never forget you."

The young rosette sadly watched her best friend leave, Naruto, who was sitting in the back seat, waved his hand, Sakura did the same thing.

"Mom, is Naruto going to visit us," she looked up at her mother for an answer.

"Yes dear," Hikari walked Sakura back inside the house.

13 years later

"Man it's been to long since I've been here," an 18-year-old blond with cerulean eyes said.

A man with long and spiky white hair stood next to him, "Well it's been 13-years, now help me finish unpacking your stuff, you lazy gaki."

"Whatever you say Ero-sennin," Naruto smirked as his godfather was going to get angry.

His godfather punched his head, "Gaki, I told you its Jiraiya, not Ero-sennin, sheesh, and I thought your father taught you to respect me."

Naruto rolled his eyes, "He might've taught me that." Jiraiya just shook his head and continued to help out Naruto.

After a few hours of unpacking, the two sat down and drank their Pepsi. Morning came and Jiraiya splashed Naruto with a bucket of cold water, the blond shot up, his body shivering.

"What was that for," he cried aloud, upset that the fact that Jiraiya had to wake him up the most crucial way.

"You're going to enroll in Konoha University," Jiraiya handed him a pamphlet.

The blond took it and began to read, "Why am I going here for."

"Well your father said, that if you were to return here, you have to enroll there," he explained, Naruto continued to read the pamphlet.

"All right I'll get changed," Jiraiya nodded and left Naruto's room.

"Damn it, where is it," an 18-year-old girl with pink hair and emerald eyes cursed as she was looking for something, "Ah ha found it," she said victoriously as she held her report.

"Haruno Sakura, if you don't get down here this instant, you'll be late for school," Hikari called out to her daughter.

"I'm coming," was Sakura's reply, she grabbed her bag and put the report in it. Quickly, Sakura grabbed an apple and headed to the door, until she bumped into someone.

"You all right," a man that was the same age as Sakura, with black hair and onyx eyes asked.

"I'm fine Sasuke-kun," her boyfriend, Uchiha Sasuke, son of Uchiha Fugaku who was the founder of Konoha's police force, stretched his hand out to help his girlfriend up. "Thanks Sasuke-kun."

She followed her boyfriend to his car; Hikari watched her daughter and boyfriend leave, "I pray to kami that Naruto won't find out."

"So this is it huh," the blond looked up at the building as soon as he stepped out of the bus and walked inside the building.

Just coming was Sasuke and Sakura, the Uchiha parked his car and he and Sakura walked out. Waving to them was Ino; she was sitting next to their friends, Kiba, Hinata, Choji, Sai, Shino, Shikamaru, Neji, Tenten, and Lee.

"Hey guys," Sakura greeted as she sat next to Ino.

"So did you guys here, there's a transfer student is going here," Ino asked, making Sakura curiously.

"What does he look like," Sakura wonder if the student was someone nice.

"Well I hear he came from Mizu no Kuni," Sakura then forgot about the whole nice thing.

"He's probably some jerk," the rosette remembered when she met someone from there, and that guy turned to be a jerk.

Sasuke wrapped his arm around her, "Don't worry Sakura, if he dare tries to put a move on you, I'll beat him up."

"Oh Sasuke-kun," Sakura giggled lightly, they all stopped talking until they heard the bell ring.

"So this is the principal office," Naruto stopped right in front of it, he opened the door and looked around, there he saw a women with black hair, "Um excuse me miss, but I'm looking for a Ms. Tsunade."

Shizune looked at the boy for a moment, "Just one second, Tsunade-sama, there's a boy looking for you."

A women; with blonde hair, hazel eyes, came walking and stood next to Shizune and looked at Naruto, "What can I help you with?"

"Um, I'm the new transfer student and here to enroll," that instant Tsunade jumped over the desk and hugged the boy.

"Naruto is that really you," the teen aged blond could barely breathe.

"Baa-chan, you're choking me," she let go of him and punched his head, "Ouch, what was that for?"

"I still see you haven't changed," she noticed the six marks on his cheeks, which looked like whisker marks, "Naruto what's with the markings on your cheek?"

"A result from my parent's death," he sadly replied as his hair covered his face.

Shizune and Tsunade gasped, Minato and Kushina were like brothers and sisters to Shizune, while they were like Tsunade's children.

"What happened to them," the two women asked.

"Car accident that happened after I had turned 7, we were coming back from the arcade and it was raining hard and thundering, the windows were getting hit by powerful rain droplets. Then all off a sudden it started to get really foggy, dad could barely see, then there was a bright light, my dad tried his best to make a sharp turn, then our car turned, it was spinning out of control and it an upcoming truck. My mom shield me from the impact, the glass shattered and that's how I got those markings, my 7th birthday was the worst day of my life," tears began to roll down his cheeks after he finished explaining.

Tsunade hugged the blond in a motherly way, "Don't worry Naruto, Shizune and I will take care of you."

"Thanks, but Ero-sennin is letting me stay with him, until I they fix my old house," Tsunade nodded her head and gestured Shizune to give Naruto the papers.

After an hour, Naruto sat back in the seat as his hand rested from signing so many papers, Tsunade came back and handed Naruto a piece of paper.

"This paper here is a map of the campus and has your school schedule as well," Naruto nodded his head in gratitude and left the office.

Once out, he looked at the paper, "Okay, let's see, I have, oh homeroom," he quickly followed the map that showed how to get there.

Sakura happily chatted with her girlfriends, while Sasuke was talking with the guys, the teacher who wore a piece of clothing that covered his bottom face and an eye patch on his right, came walking in.

"All right everyone settle down, today we have a transfer student from Mizu no Kuni, so can you please give him your attention. Now be nice to him, he's a bit shy," Kakashi watched his students settle down, "All right then, you can come in."

Everyone watched a teen aged boy with blond hair and six scars three each on his cheek, walked in, the girls saw how mesmerizing his cerulean eyes were, and the guys thought he was a fighter or a sports player seeing how well built his body was.

"All right then, why don't you introduce yourself," Kakashi smiled at the blond boy.

He nodded his head and began to speak, "Hello all, my name is Namikaze Naruto, my family and I used to live here, but then we moved so the business could expand," he let out a breather as he finished.

"Wait Namikaze as in Namikaze Corporation," Ino asked him, Naruto nodded in reply.

"Get out," one of the girls said, "You were voted Mizu no Kuni's hottest teenage boy." Then all of the girls began to crowd around the embarrassed and shy Naruto.

"This guy isn't that special," Sasuke muttered his breath.

"What's the matter Sasuke, afraid that he'll steal your Sakura away from him," Kiba teased the annoyed Uchiha.

"I wouldn't worry about Sakura, but you should worry about Hinata, it seems she's growing a liking towards the new guy," Sasuke smirked causing Kiba to growl at him.

Sakura continued to look at Naruto, "I swear it's like I've heard his name before."

"Sakura," Ino called, but the rosette didn't answer, "SAKURA."

"WHAT," everyone looked at the rosette who, just sunk down in her seat. "What do you want Ino?"

"Why are you looking at him strangely," Sakura began to think for a while.

"I think I know him," Ino shook her head in disbelief.

"All right girls, step away from Naruto," Kakashi ordered, "Now Naruto, why don't you take a seat next to Sakura."

Naruto looked at Sakura and smiled at her, the rosette then had a flashback of when she was five, the blond walked towards to where she was sitting, and sat in the empty chair next to her.

"It's been a while Sakura-chan," she looked at him and he smiled again.
