Clueless lovers chapter 2

Chapter 2: childhood friend

He woke up wishing to find enchanting black eyes staring at him, reaching into his soul and reading his heart’s and mind’s thoughts, but instead, his blue eye meet golden one upon waking up.

‘‘Mitsuki?’‘

‘‘Intersting dream?’‘ his best friend asked, reaching for a flask of water from beside him and handing it to Boruto.

‘‘Thanks.’‘ he whispered before reaching for the flask and wincing at the pain on his side.

‘‘You better rest for a couple more hours before we head back.’‘

‘‘Yeah.’‘

Boruto winced again as leaned back, he could already hear her scolding him about being too reckless.

‘Boruto-baka! you’re going to kill yourself one of these days because of pure idiocy.’’

‘’Like you’re one to talk about recklessness !’’ is what he’ll normally answer her.

He never comprehended why she cared too much for him, sure he was her teammate, but she didn’t worry that much about Mitsuki, but that can be explained by saying that Mitsuki can take care of himself much better than Boruto.

But now, he understood why he also noticed that he too worries about her way too much and that that was a cause of a lot of their fights.

And if the reason she worries so much about him as he about her is the same, then Boruto will stop saying that something is impossible.

He still remembers all the times he would deny liking Sarada, saying it was impossible that he would like ‘ a bossy, stubborn know it all’, but in the end, it seems he doesn’t just like her, he loves her.

He never recognized the feeling until a few days ago, he never realized before that that it wasn’t because of the heat his cheeks would heat up when she’d get too close, or that his heart beating fast isn’t because of their last training session.

Boruto smirked, remembering that he’s wasn’t the only one flustered during a lot of those moments, recalling his black-haired teammate fidgeting and ears getting red, looking up at him behind her red glasses...

When did she become so beautiful? he thought, now that he thinks about it, when did his childhood friend turn into his-

‘‘You think she’s okay? she’s been really stressed out lately because of the upcoming jonin exams.’‘

Boruto jerked his head back, ‘‘ how did you-”

‘‘With a smile like that on your face, there’s not many people you might be thinking off.’‘

Boruto just glared at him before talking, refusing to believe that it was that apparent that he was head over heels for their female teammate.

‘‘She’s going to be fine, she’s the strongest chunin in the village.’‘

‘‘Stronger than you?’‘

‘‘I don’t know, I think she could beat me.’‘

it was apparent to Boruto that he and Sarada never went all out on each other before, he never faced the true power of her lightning release, and she never faced his elemental rasengan’s at their full power, that and a bunch of other stuff too.

‘‘‘I think she would beat you to a pulp.’‘

‘‘Thanks Mitsuki, you really are an encouraging friend.’‘ he said sarcastically.

‘‘...’‘

‘‘What?’‘ Boruto asked, annoyed that the white-haired boy is still staring at him.

‘‘You going to tell me what happened between the two of you in the cave?’‘

‘‘Something that you interrupted, dattebaseh!’‘

He could still feel it, the heat of her lips on his, moving in sync with each other as her arms grabbed at his shirt and his hand traveled to her waist, pulling her closer.

Only for all that to be ripped away from him when they heard Mitsuki coming, as they jumped away from each other.

But Mitsuki saw the redness of their faces, and the awkward mood when they’s be with him in the same room, or that they were practically tearing their eyes apart from the other’s eyes.

‘‘Sarada, always the reckless hypocrite, got wounded so I was helping bandage her wound when she...’‘

‘‘...’‘ Mitsuki didn’t say a word waiting patiently for his best friend’s words.

‘‘She kissed me and I kissed her back...’’

‘‘And?’‘

‘‘And you interrupted us, you perv!’‘

‘‘Ahh, I told you you’d make a good couple.’‘

‘‘You also said that dad kissed uncle Sasuke, you’re not always credible for that kinda of stuff.’‘

‘‘I am, you just don’t know it yet.’‘

Boruto reached for the bottle’s cap and threw it at Mitsuki.

‘‘We should get going now.’‘ Boruto said as he tried to get up.

‘‘Maybe you should rest up a bit.’‘

‘‘Nah, it’s fine, I wanna get back to Konoha as fast as possible.’‘ he said, imagining a black haired girl, with glowing black eyes and a wide smile greeting him at the gates.

Mitsuki just smiled and nodded, already knowing his friend’s intentions to meet Sarada and do their usual after mission routine.

A routine he was a part of a couple of years ago, a routine he felt he should let it be a Boruto and Sarada thing not a team 7 thing.

‘Chou-chou owes me a cappuccino.’ he thought, recalling their bet about who would act first, Sarada or Boruto.

Both Sarada and Boruto were quite terrible at romance, both of them being in love with the other for at least a couple of years and not realizing, in the end, Sarada turned out to be the less dense of the two.

As for Boruto...he completely fell head over heels for her and didn’t notice till she took action that his childhood best friend, is something much more now.

Clueless lovers

Disclaimer: I don’t own any of the characters featured here, I just own the idea.

Summary: Let’s just say Sasuke passed on his cluelessness in romance to his daughter.

This is going to be three chap fic, the first from Sarada’s point of view, the second from Boruto’s and the third both of them.

Chap 1: Follow your heart

.

.

.

She didn’t know why she did it, she just did.

She did something utterly irresponsible without thinking of the consequences, and that’s because she followed her mother’s advice.

‘Always follow your heart Sara-chan.’ was what the women often said when sarada would approach her with a new inquiry.

‘Bet she didn’t expect this to happen in a million years.’ Sarada thought as she plopped down on her bed.

The girl was rather dumb in the romance department, and her mother knew that thanks to the analytical mind that doesn’t let spontaneous actions pass through sasuke passed on to her.

That’s why the pink haired women would likely think that she hit her head if she told her she kissed Boruto on a whim during their latest mission.

The sixteen-year-old blushed at the memory, touching her lips with her fingers,  remembering the warmth of his lips on hers, the slow movement of her lips on his, tentative at first, then more decisive as he reciprocated, and somehow her hands were on his shoulders and his hands were on her waist.

‘’Sarada, you okay in there?’’ her mother asked through the door, which startled Sarada out of her thoughts.

‘‘Yeah mama I’m fine!’‘ she said, raising up from the bed.

‘‘Can I come in?’‘ the pink haired women didn’t seem convinced as she asked that question.

‘‘Yeah sure.’‘

Sakura opened the door, still in her work clothes.

‘‘Why didn’t you answer when I called you from downstairs?’‘ the women said as she moved to sit next to her daughter.

The girl gulped, was she really that deep in thought?

‘‘Hey, your face is red, come here,’‘ she said as she got closer and put her hand on her daughter’s head.

‘‘You don’t seem to have a fever, were you out in the sun a lot today,’‘ Sakura asked as she rubbed her daughter's reddening cheeks.

‘‘Ehh, yeah yeah that’s it.’‘ she girl said, nodding at the same time.

‘’ Ohh if that’s the case, then you should put sunscreen before you go out.’‘

‘‘Sure mama.’‘ Sarada said before breathing a sigh of relief, relieved her mother didn’t suspect anything.

‘‘Ohh, and you need to tell me what happened when you get out of your shy phase,’‘ Sakura said as she closed the door behind her.

‘‘Mama!’‘

Sarada threw herself back on the bed as she heard her mother’s laughter.

.

.

.

‘‘Then what happened?!’‘

‘‘We just broke apart I guess.’‘

‘‘And then?!’‘

‘‘We continued our mission regularly.’‘

‘‘Sarada!’‘

‘‘Chou-chou!’‘ the girl mimicked.

‘‘Stop it and tell me!’‘ chou-chou exclaimed as she moved and grabbed Sarada at her shoulders.

‘‘OKay, maybe there was something after the kiss... every time our eyes would meet, even to exchange a mission order, there’s a something there, I don’t know what it is, it’s just so intense...’‘

Chou-chou pulled her best friend into a hug and jumping, which forced Sarada to jump with her.

‘‘Chou-chou you’re making me dizzy!’‘

‘‘I can’t believe it you guys finally stopped being in denial!’‘

‘‘We weren’t in denial!’‘

‘‘Yeah, yeah, sure, but why did you do it?’’

‘’Huh?’’

‘’You said you kissed Boruto first, so that means you initiated it, so come on spill it.’’

‘’I don’t know.’’

‘’What?! come on girl this is no time to half-ass your answers!’’

‘’I mean it.’’

‘’You really don’t know.’’

‘’I really don’t, I just did.’’

‘’Ohh.’’

A moment of silence passed before Chou-chou spoke again.

‘’So did you him again after the mission?’’

‘’No, He had to go to Suna immediately after, but he’s coming back tomorrow.’’

‘’Great, what are you going to do?’’

‘’What am I going to do?!’’ Sarada asked panicked, not thinking about to tell when he sees him, too giddy because of what happened.

‘’ Relax girl, what do you guys normally do when one of you comes back from missions?’‘

‘‘We train, then we pick up hamburgers and climb up the hokage mountain to look at the stars in the night.’’

Chou-chou’s mouth narrowed into a straight line as she threw her best friend a glare.

‘‘What?’‘

‘‘Sarada, I love you, but you're the  stupidest smart fuckin’ person I ever met.’‘

‘‘...Thank you?’‘

Chou-chou jumped off her bed and went towards the closet, where she picked a limited edition Barbecue bag of chips.

‘‘Anyways this calls for a celebration.’‘

Sarada smiled, catching the bag of chips her friend tossed at her.

‘‘Now tomorrow do what you usually do with him.’‘

‘‘Really? I was thinking maybe something a little more romantic.’‘

‘‘What’s more romantic than confessing your love under the starry sky?’‘

Sarada turned red as she tore her eyes from the bag of chips towards her friend.

‘‘Wait, who said anything about a love confession?’‘

‘‘Don’t you love him?’‘

‘‘....’‘ the girl was silent, thinking of  the meaning behind her actions and emotions towards the blonde boy, could it be that she fell in love with her childhood friend? the same boy that used to call her four eyes? the boy that once splashed green paint all over her, the boy that was a pain in the ass for the last four years?

‘‘Sarada?’‘

‘‘I do.’‘ she confessed, more to herself than to chou-chou.

‘’ took you long enought.’‘ Chou-chou said as she laughed at her friend’s cluelessness.

‘‘So you think I should tell him?’‘

‘‘You have to tell him, I’m sure he feels the same way.’‘

‘‘How can you be so sure?’‘

‘‘I have my sources.’‘ the girl declared proudly.

‘‘Chou-chou!’‘ the girl shouted as she threw a handful of chips at the girl.

And despite all the girl’s attempt to know who chou-chou’s resources were, she never found out that it was Mitsuki who told Chou-chou a couple of weeks ago that Boruto is exhibiting signs of falling in love when their female teammate is around, much to his denial.

‘Those two are meant to be, nobody can handle the other’s cluelessness other than them.’‘ chou-chou thought.
