Hey everyone, I am sooooooo sorry for not updating a "Bundle of Joy" or "Twist of Fate" for a like a month now. But I have been so busy at school, my teachers just keep on piling the homework, assignments, and tests.

Well just to tell everyone that, I will not be writing for a while but guess what?

I found this story on a usb I thought I lost. So about a year ago before I started using FanFiction, I wrote a story for fun.

This story is finished and as I stated before I did write it about a year ago, so please don't complain that I started a new story and didn't finish/update my old ones.

Well here it is, a new NaruSaku fic. It will be another AU fic because I enjoy writing about real life more than the actual shinobi world. So please enjoy and review :)

Summary: Sakura and Ino want to live in the city. Ino finds a nice apartment at a low price during her travels. But unfortunately they cannot afford it… So they need a 3rd roommate! Who will this roommate be? Will their lives change forever? Will they find love where they least excepted it to be. NaruSaku. AU Fic.

Disclaimer: I do not own the anime/manga Naruto or any of the characters used in this story from the anime/mango Naruto.

Roommates

A pink haired girl sat on the porch pouting. 'She should be here by now' she thought.

The pinkette was holding her purse, and several boxes and some suitcases were in front of her.

People were walking by and giving her strange looks, as to why she had all that stuff with her. They probably thought she just got kicked out of her house or something like that.

Looking at her stuff reminded her of the reason she was there, sitting by herself.

She got accepted into a really good university in the city, so she decided to go and live in the city. However, until two weeks ago she was had no idea where she would be living and then her childhood friend called her.

They had been very close, but then she had to move because of her parents jobs.

They managed to keep in touch via e-mails because both of them were busy in their lives. Miraculously, they both had found jobs in the same city, but her friend decided to take a break from studying.

Two weeks ago her friend called and said she had found the perfect place to rent in Konoha.

It was a big apartment so they needed to find a third person in order to pay the rent. Her friend told her that she had already took care of that, and she just needed to pack her stuff and meet her at the apartment building.

That was two weeks ago, now her friend was an hour late.

She heard a car stopped at the sidewalk, and the door opened and she heard her name being called out.

"Sakura! I'm sorry for being late, but I had my reasons" a blonde yelled as she got out of the car.

Sakura stood up and walked towards the blonde giving her a hug. They hadn't seen each other for years.

"Sakura! I missed you so much."

"I missed you too Ino."

"Are you ready to see out new home?"

"I would, if I had the keys!"

"Here you go!" Ino held out two keys with small engravings on them that looked like a leave, "You go ahead, I think I better park my car. I have already seen the place and all my things are there. I took the liberty of choosing my room first, since I was the one who found this place."

Ino winked at the pinkette and she just pouted back.

"That's not fair"

Ino chuckled, "But I think you won't have it hard to choose between the two others. And it's the top floor. We have the whole top floor to ourselves!"

Ino smiled and got into her car.

"If I like your room better, I will think of something and steal it from you." Sakura shouted and laughed.

She took one of her suitcases and opened the front door of the apartment building. She found the elevator and pressed the button with the number 5 on it.

Yes, it was a small apartment building, near the park, in what looked like a good neighborhood. The rent was surprisingly small for someone younger than 25, still a student and just starting to work.

"It better be a place I fall in love with!" Sakura said as the elevator stopped at the fifth floor, making quiet beep signaling it's her stop.

She took a deep breath and unlocked the brownish door with the number 5 on it. Each floor's apartment's number began with the floors number, so this was the only apartment with the 5 as the first number.

She opened the door and some boxes were standing in front of her. It was a hallway with light yellow wallpaper and a closet for coats and footwear.

The closet door had a big mirror on it. She walked further and a big living room with couch, few armchairs, a TV, bookshelf and coffee table that just seem to invite her to sit down and feel comfy.

To her right she could see three doors. To the left two doors and a door opening revealing the kitchen.

She dragged the suitcase behind her and opened the door to see the first room, it was colored reddish.

She went to the next one, the room was in colored light blue. It was the bathroom with a shower, a sink, a bathtub, and a toilet.

She decided to check out the next room. When she opened the door, she understood that it will be her room, it was light green, with red ornaments, and a window with a windowsill big enough to sit on.

She put the suitcase down and went to look at the view from her new window. She could see other apartment buildings and the park.

"I think I could live here." Sakura mumbled to herself and decided to see the rest of the apartment.

She found another room, which had pink walls with glitter on them. 'Of course this is Ino's room, I don't need to see the boxes in this room to know that.'

Sakura smiled and wanted to know what was behind the last door. It was a study, big bookshelves along the two walls and a desk with a computer. There were also some armchairs and couch. 'So I can use this as a library if I want, some of the shelves are empty.'

"So, is it good?" Ino asked suddenly standing behind the pinkette.

"Kyah!" Sakura screamed and held her hand to her chest, "Don't' scare me like that"

"Sorry I thought you knew I came in" Ino giggled.

"Are you sure, we can afford it? I mean, all the furniture looks expensive and the building itself looks, you know, like we can't pay for living her." Sakura asked.

She did not want to leave this place, after only being here for less than 10 minutes. It was an awesome apartment.

"Yes, we can. I met the owners when I was on a plane. They are really rich people without kids. They are actually so nice that I feel sorry for them not having kids. The couple is currently travelling around the world and their apartment is empty. When I told them that I was looking for a place in Konoha, they offered to rent me the place pretty cheap if I keep an eye on the apartment and keep it in good condition. It's ours for the next two years, amazing, right?"

Ino was smiling and gleaming from happiness and Sakura felt happy for having such a brave friend who went around the world with barely any money and meeting rich people who have great apartments in good neighborhoods. She hugged her and they started to jump in circles.

"So, who is the third person?" Sakura asked as she let go of Ino and asked the question that the blonde feared to hear.

Ino tried to avoid answering the question and in the end, Ino persuaded Sakura to bring her stuff to the apartment first and then they can sit and have a chat about everything.

Sakura just sighed and admitted that it would be great to get all the yeah-our-new-home feeling out by putting her stuff safely in her room.

After a couple of hours of moving boxes and unpacking them, they were sitting in the kitchen and drinking cola.

Sakura asked again, "So who is our mystery roommate that you don't want to talk about?"

"Ermmm... First off… It's a guy…"

ooooo

First chapter done! I hope you all enjoyed this one. Btw this story is about 34k words so I am breaking it up at parts where I think will be a good cliffhanger.

So since this story is already written, expect an update every 2-3 days unless I am busy and can't get on my computer.

Don't forget to review this story!
