Chapter One

You're in college?

Naruto road the city train humming to Stereo Skyline's Shake and Shout on his black ipod until his stop came up. He took out the metallic blue Skullcandy headphones from his ears and slipped his ipod into the front pocket of his black laptop case and pulled the strap of his black and dark blue backpack over his left shoulder before standing up and getting off the train.

He took a look around before taking a small folded piece of paper out from his pocket and checked the directions and started walking to the exit of the train station only to bump into someone. He had to step back a bit to catch himself and ended up catching the girl he'd bumped into in a dip.

"Sorry, I wasn't looking where I was going." The whisker-faced blond said as he stood himself and the girl back upright.

"It- It's alright..." She said with a slightly breathless European accent.

Naruto had to admit, she looked cute but the way she dressed was a bit too flashy for his taste. She had her long blond hair tied up with a big sparkly silver bow on the elastic band, black leggings and a skirt that looked a little too tight to walk in, a sparkly pink shirt under a regular pink jacket, and even the bag she was carrying was sparkly! ... So was the guy standing next to her, about an inch taller than Naruto, scowling down at Naruto, seeming to attempt to burn a hole into the whisker-faced blonde's head. Said whisker-faced blonde sweatdropped and raised an eyebrow.

"I am Tinka, this is my twin brother Gunther. What is your name?" The girl asked.

"Naruto." He answered.

"Strange name." Gunther said with a sneer only to let out a "Oomph!" when his sister suddenly back-handed him in the gut without taking her eyes off Naruto.

"It's a wonderful name." Tinka said with a happy sigh.

"It means fish cake." Naruto said flatly.

"Delicious then." She said with another happy sigh.

"Yeah, okay. Do either of you know where I can find..." He lifted the paper up to see the address, "Apartment number 36-C on Essex Street and Diargo Drive?"

"We live near there!" Tinka said excitedly before she became slightly depressed, "Oh, but I have dance class... But I'm sure Gunther would show you!" She turned to her brother with an insistent stare. "Won't you Gunther?"

Reluctantly Gunther agreed.

Naruto smiled brightly with a tilt of his head saying, "Thank you very much."

Tinka sighed happily and left for her dance class with flushed face as Gunther lead the way to the apartment complex he was looking for. He had avoided looking at Naruto the whole time and the depressed looking scowl on his face hadn't leaft his face since Tinka boarded her train for her dance lessons. Suddenly, he smiled when he and Naruto approached a couple guys sitting at a table between an apartment building enterance and a small bakery.

"Ty, just the man I wanted to see." Gunther said to the taller guy sitting.

"Gunther, looking sparkly as always." Ty said snapping one of Gunther's suspenders.

Naruto let out a chuckle as Gunther lifted a foot to the stone steps of the apartment building to take something that had fallen behind the tongue of his shoe out.

"Dude sweet kicks!" The short guy wearing headphones around his neck, Naruto remembered he was Deuce, said. "How much you want for 'em?"

"Not for sale." Gunther said.

"Alright, how 'bout I win 'em off you? Arm wrestling."

"What if I win?" Gunther said putting his foot back down. "Do I get your jacket?"

"Yeah, you can get my pet unicron too 'cause you ain't winning!" Deuce said laughing with Ty before Ty stood up.

"Have a seat, I'll ref."

Gunther sat down, Ty counted to three and said go, and if Naruto blinked he would've missed it. He let out a cough/laugh as Gunther sat up and Deuce held his arm up stunned. Ty was laughing too.

"Aw man, you got served!" Ty said to Deuce.

"Pay up loser." Gunther said before smiling. "I'll cut up jacket to make into handbag for Tinka."

'Wow, is this guy in love with his sister?' Naruto thought with a raised eyebrow.

"No, hold up, hold up!" Deuce stuttered. "I-I didn't know we were starting."

"What part of 'one, two, three, go!' did you not understand?" Ty asked him.

"Now, down to business." Gunther said as Ty stood between him and Naruto. "Ty, what do you think of my sister?"

"She's a whack-job with good hair." Ty said bluntly making Naruto snort a laugh.

"Perfect. You'll not get all grabby-handy when you take her on a date." Gunther said happily.

"A date? Dude, not for a million bucks." Ty scoffed.

"How 'bout fifty." Gunther said pulling a fifty from his pocket.

"Done." Ty said taking the fifty and walking away before Deuce regrettably handed over his jacket.

"Apartment you are looking for is in there." Gunther said to Naruto pointing the thumb at the building they were standing in front of.

Naruto gave a nod in thanks before going in and making his way up to 36-C.

He had a hand up to knock when he heard, "... college guy is coming here to help you with math, not date you!"

"That's how it will start, but eventually, he'll fall madly in love."

Naruto could only guess that that was this Cece girl he was to tutor and tried to hold in a snort. 'If I was the age she probably thinks I am, not likely.'

"Of course, he'll have to wait five years 'cause it's totally inappropriate now."

This time Naruto had to put a hand over his mouth to keep from laughing.

"I'm telling you right now, I'm not wearing yellow at your fantasy wedding."

Naruto only shook his head at what Cece's friend said before knocking, only to hold in a laugh again when he heard Cece chant, "Please be a little cute, please be a little cute, please be a little cute."

Cece opened the door and Rocky, being the first to see him, had dropped her jaw. Cece slowly peaked around the door, almost afraid of why Rocky reacted that way. Her jaw dropped too. When she opened the door expecting to see a "cute college guy", they found a boy the same age as them with spiky sunshine blonde hair, sapphire blue eyes, and three whisker-like marks on each cheek instead. He was wearing a burnt orange hoodie with the sleeves rolled up to his elbows, skinny black jeans, a pair of red, black, and white Nike air sneakers with straps, and a pair of black fingerless gloves with a red spiral on the top.

'Definitely cute...' Both girls thought in almost unison.

"Y-You're in college?" Cece said somewhat stunned.

"Yeah, I know I don't look it, but I was born cursed with the brains." Naruto said walking in. "Though, technically, I've graduated college twice already. Fist time was was when I was six for medical, after that was law, and now I'm going to a Technical Institution. Naruto Uzumaki, at your service." Naruto said with a smile holding up a hand.

Cece obliged with her own smile. "I'm Cece."

"I'm Rocky." Rocky said quickly taking his hand when he offered it to her next. "But I'll be leaving so I won't be interrupting anything." Rocky said turning to the door and sort of slouched as she left thinking, 'Why can't I have trouble with algebra?'

"So, shall we start?" Naruto asked before turning to the table in the kitchen, but then looked over his shoulder at Cece. "By the way, though I guess I wouldn't mind waiting five years, not so inappropriate to date me now." Naruto said with a sly smile before turning back to the table, not needing to see Cece's face to know it was as red as a stop-light.

They were sitting down with the algebra book open and several papers spread out, it had only been a few minutes when Naruto asked, "... You're dyslexic, aren't you?"

Cece froze before turning to look at him in fear, "... How do you know that?"

"You're squinting a lot and you don't have any imprints over your ears as proof of wearing glasses and I can tell you aren't wearing contacts." Naruto said. "That and my older cousin is dyslexic. I tutor him all the time."

Cece bit her lip looking about to cry.

"Hey c'mon, I know you're scared." Naruto said looking at her. "You see letters and sometimes it just looks like alphabet soup, you wake up terrified every day that you might have to read something aloud..."

"I didn't want anyone to know..." Cece said in tears.

Naruto wiped them away. "That doesn't surprise me. My cousin's an actor and he sometimes needs help reading his lines... He memorizes them as best as he can before going on set just so there's no risk of him reading aloud in front of anyone. People can be mean, especially when they find out you have some kind of disorder even though millions of people have it."

"Sometimes it affects my dancing..." Cece sniffled. "Left and right, they just get jumbled up in my head and I can't do anything about it... Then I think, 'who am I kidding? I'm never going to be good as the other dancers'..."

Cece was crying harder and Naruto brought her into a hug and she clung to her hooded sweatshirt.

"Hey, c'mon, stop." Naruto said gently patting her head. "You know, what that dyslexia says about you, is that your twice as strong as you think you are... I've seen you dance on Shake It Up Chicago. If you can do that, even with dyslexia holding you back a bit, you're incredible. Everyone has some kind of baggage that they have to carry around their whole life. Yours is dyslexia."

"What's yours?" Cece sniffled sitting up.

"Both my blessing and curse. My brains." Naruto said.

"Yeah but that's not so bad." Cece said wiping her tears away.

"You'd think so, right?" Naruto said with a sigh. "Knowing stuff is good, sure, but... sometimes, a lot of times actually, people think I'm a freak. I couldn't talk to anyone my own age, afraid they'd reject me where I stand. I still tried though. I have a few friends my own age. One of them actually has an IQ almost as high as mine but, hehe, he's too lazy to do the work. I got my first friend when I was playing music and didn't know anyone was listening. He's in New York right now."

"That's cool." Cece said smiling.

"Yeah. Does that friend of yours know? Rocky?"

Cece shook her head.

"Are you not that close?" Naruto asked.

"She's been my best friend since grade-school. I can... I can tell her anything..."

"Then you should probably tell her about this. I guarantee, she'll think your as strong as I think you are."

"Really?"

"She's your friend right? Why wouldn't she?"

Cece smiles. "Thanks."

"No prob. And hey, I know an easier way for you to get better in algebra." Naruto said standing and taking out his laptop.

"You do?" Cece said.

Naruto nodded and typed a couple things before music started to suddenly play. It was Eiffel's 65 I'm blue and it was put on repeat.

"Dance with me." Naruto said holding out a hand with a smile.

Smiling instantly, Cece took his hand and he started dancing with her to help her relax and stopped before the song repeated the first time.

"Okay, now show me a couple dance steps." Naruto said.

Cece nodded and counted along with her movements.

"And stop!" Naruto said making Cece freeze in position.

"What, did I do something wrong?" Cece asked confused.

"Not at all." Naruto said smiling before stopping the music. "Now repeat those steps you just did seven times."

Cece shrugs and did as she was told counting out the eight steps seven times.

"How many steps did you just do in all?" Naruto asked.

"Fifty-six?" Cece said confused.

"Good, now do this and don't forget to count along." Naruto counted out the six steps as he crisscrossed and uncrossed his legs, spun, jumped and landed with his feet apart, and struck a pose with his arms crossed.

Cece did the same.

"Good. Now how many steps did you do?"

"Sixty-two..."

Naruto nodded taking her hand and showing her her paper on the table.

"You just solved the first problem." Naruto said smiling.

Cece's eyes widened as she smiled too before jumping at Naruto in an attack-hug.

Two hours of "Study-dancing", as they started to call it, passed and Cece was getting algebra easier and easier, while taking every chance she had to stare at Naruto. Naruto wasn't much different staring at her.

Suddenly, Naruto's watch started beeping.

"Aw, man... Looks Like I have to be getting home. I gotta take a train to get there... Man, my moms gonna have a cow if I'm late again." He said closing his laptop and putting back into it's carrying case.

Cece looked a little sad, seeing as she wouldn't be meeting with Naruto for tutoring for another two days, but instantly brightened up asking, "Hey Naruto, you want to hang out sometime?"

"Definitely. When and where?" Naruto asked smiling.

"Um... How about the new restaurant that opened? I hear they have great music..." Cece said biting her bottom lip.

"You mean... like a date?" Naruto asked smile widening as he slipped the strap of his laptop case over his shoulder.

"Yeah. I guess. If you want to call it that..." Cece said seeming to find something interesting about her shoes at the moment but still smiled.

"Alright." Naruto said nodding. "I'll see you tomorrow at... ?" Naruto said trailed off for her to suggest when she wanted to be picked up.

"Seven." Cece said instantly.

"Alright, later." Naruto said picking up his backpack and heading to the door.

Cece had a big smile on her face as she fallowed. "Later."

"Cool..." He said in a happy sigh, facing her in the open doorway, smiling.

"Cool." Cece said with an equally happy sigh.

"Bye." Naruto said stepping backwards into the hall.

"Bye..." Cece said slowly closing the door.

Without either of the two knowing, they started going through their own little victory dance. Cece doing so all over her living room and Naruto doing so all over the hall and in the elevator until he got to the front entrance of the apartment building and booked it to the train station.
