plotted starter for @uzumki
her grip on the bottle is loose, eyes gazing at the stars that can’t be seen. pucca and abyo were downstairs somewhere, almost certainly being corraled by garu to little avail. she felt bad leaving him with them alone, but she needed space to clear her head. just three days ago she’d seen the naruto uzumaki. she’d gotten to meet him again at his concert. the same naruto she’d liked from afar all through high school, who’d risen to rockstardom in the time since. so much had changed, and yet it seemed like nothing had at all.
there were two reasons she’d agreed to come. one was keeping a leash on her more impulsive friends. and the other. was a not-so-secret secret.
she’d heard he’d be here.
things got around easily when you live in such a small town, and even more so when the person behind it was famous. she has high hopes, but she tries not to let them crush her. then again, it wasn’t too late yet. there was plenty of time for him to arrive before she’d have to help garu cart off their drunken friends.
she hears footsteps behind her, someone joining her on the roof. she doesn’t look at first. “garu i’m sorry i’ll-” she turns as she speaks, needing to see garu for his response after all, and she nearly drops the beer bottle in her hand. it’s her first of the night, it’d be a shame if it went to waste that fast. “naruto,” his name is a breath, shocked from her system. “i’m s-sorry,” she stammers, turning red-faced as she meets his eyes. “clearly i thought you were someone else.”
