Aki, Fuyu, Haru, Natsu | Sasuke Uchiha ♥ Story |

Fuyu 04.

Fuyu 04

The young Uchiha prodigy looked over at the alarm clock that rested on the night stand near his bed. Repeating the same series of actions, every 5 minutes. 

A small smirk grew across his face. I didn't think it would be this excited about the Chunin exams. I just can't wait to fight all those monsters. He thought to himself cockily as images of, Soma, Neji and a certain red-head flickered through his mind. 

I'll be sure to take advantage of every opportunity to fight all of them. He promised as he forced his onyx eyes shut. 

Especially you, Soma.

*~*

Fuyu silently laid in her bed, staring up at the ceiling in darkness. 

I don't think I'm going to be able to do this...She thought to herself, balling up her left fist lightly. I don't want to risk everything and in the process embarrass myself and my team. 

She rolled over onto her right side, facing the wide window that allowed the rising sunlight to flood in. But then again...I don't want to seem like such a coward. 

“All of this is so frustrating! What am I supposed to do!” She whispered/yelled out loud, not expecting for anyone to answer. 

“Fuyu! Don't be so worried! We'll dominate those Chunin exams!” “You did come up with the majority of this jutsu, there shouldn't be anything that holds you back from becoming a chunin.” 

“It seems like everyone else has all this confidence in me, but myself.” she sighed to herself, slowly shutting her eyes. 

“How do I ever expect to keep up with Soma and Ritsu if I keep feeling this way?” 

*~*

“So this is it, isn't it Fuyu-chibiusa.” Yukito asked his daughter as he watched her slip on her shinobi sandals through sad eyes. 

“It just seems like yesterday that you started attending the academy, Fuyu. And now...now you're going off to take the Chunin exams.” Chifuyu expressed, cupping her daughters cheeks in a loving manner. 

Fuyu sighed silently. “I still don't feel like I can do this though. I keep thinking that something's going to go wrong.” she responded, looking off at budding Japanese Apricots that thrived in the Saatchi compound. 

“That's the last thing you'll want to be thinking on the first day you start the Chunin exams, Fuyu.” Yukito advised, crouching to Fuyu's level. “I understand you have some doubts about yourself, but don't let that affect your actions and decisions. If anything, use those doubts to your advantage and prove to yourself that they were wrong.” 

“That's a lot easier said than done.” Fuyu replied, looking sadly into her father's chocolate brown eyes. 

A sad smile formed on Yukito's face. “But it's not impossible.” 

“Fuyuuuu!~” A familiar voice called from the entrance of the Saatchi compound “You ready? Soma and I are all fired up! C'mon, let's not keep our enemies waiting!” Ritsu called, ushering her to come with them. 

Fuyu waved a hand in acknowledgment before looking back at her parents. 

“You'll be fine, Fuyu-chibiusa.” Chifuyu reassured her. 

“Remember, those two” Yukito began pointing at her two teammates “Are looking after you every step of the way.” 

a small smile managed to grace Fuyu's features as she nodded her head in agreement. “I'll see you when I get home.” she bidded, bowing respectfully before running off to meet up with her teammates.
