What She Lacked {Naruto X OC}

Juu Roku ~ Yumiko

Suddenly everything went black. I can't remember properly what even happened, I was too tired. All I recall is that I entered my room ready to sleep, even locked the door, and I fell to the floor.

My head was aching uncontrollably, I didn't even know why. It was so much pain is stopped me from thinking properly. My body fell to the floor and I did my best to shoo that horrible feeling away.

So I decided to call help, call Naruto. It was the most primitive thought my brain had and I wasn't really in condition to thing of something more elaborated.

I shut my eyes and tried to think of other things, as I crawled towards the door and started hitting it. I tried to reach for the handle, but until I unlocked the door, the pain would had already taken over my being.

"Naruto-kun! Naruto-kun!" I shouted, hoping for him to hear. As soon as his name left my mouth, he quickly replied nervously. He was already at the door before I had even hit it. He was probably drawn there by the huge noise of my form crashing to the floor. I collided quite heavily, and so the sound was disastrous.

"Y-Yes, Yumi-chan?! What happened?! Are you okay?!" And I could percieve he was trying the handle by the rusty roaring it did. He looked... desperate, he cared highly for me...

"K-Kinda... I'm can't unlock the d-door... Could you...?" I managed to speak out as some of the words made it also inaudible due to the sharp pain. "I-I think there is a spare key under the c-carpet..."

And as soon as I said that, fast steps could be heard heading towards the first floor. There was this huge light-coloured carpet in the living room, which was the one I mentioned.

I waited for a bit, trying to distract myself with the different textures of things around me. The solid waxy surface of the wooden door, where my fingers could delicately slide by. And the scruffy comfortable material the carpet of my room was made of, which I was sitting on.

As I lost myself with the unimportant details of my room, Naruto returned.

"I-I have it..." And he tried it, successfully opening the door. "...Here..." And he found me on the floor with my eyes forced shut. "A-Are you... okay...?"

And I still barely noticed his presence, with my attention back to the flame inside my head, scorching indescribably. So he layed an open palm on my shoulder, repeating the question, and that made me open my eyes.

We exchanged looks for a moment, my light brown eyes reflecting suffering joining his diamond blue eyes, with flowed with worry towards me. It was such a vast moment, and unnecessary... But the fact that he worried about me... the pain was almost forgotten...

"I-I have a h-headache... Could you g-get me pills...?" His resting palm suddenly turned into a firm grasp on my back, as he helped me up.

Eventhough he did his best to take me from the carpet of my room to the cupboard on his where the medicine stayed, his hold was still soft and gentle. When I notices this, the fact that he cared for me flashed back.

He cares a lot about me... Worries so much whenever minor things happen... Opposing my whole family, that sent me away... I believe this thing of massacre was just a stupid excuse... to get rid of the only Nakanishi without those dangerous eyes.

As we got to his room, he opened a cupboard and from it, grabbed a box, leaving me leaning against the wall. His orbs scanned all the remedies he had until he finally dound onky for headaches. He suddenly popped out one of the purple pills and gave it to me.

"N-No water, right...?" I asked, since I knew most of the pills were only taken in with water. However, in his favor, that one didn't, so I just got it and stuck it rapidly into my mouth, swallowing it whole.

The pill didn't cease the pain immediately, but just by knowing it was going to, I felt relieved. And then stupid, my change of emotions was this quick.

I noticed the fuss I had just done. Seriously Yumiko? All of this because of sudden headache? With all the drama you did, it could equal to a kidnap. The loud noise and all the asks for help, you must've have gotten him way too much worried over nothing. You're a ninja now, a headache is nothing compared to what you will witness when battling criminals.

"A-Are you okay now...?" Naruto asked, perceiving my now relaxed features. He looked at me nervously, awaiting a calming response.

"Yes... And I'm sorry." I apologized, realizing that I must have gotten his nervous about a stupid headache. Maybe I didn't put the thing of being a ninja into my head yet.

I was just glad Naruto wasn't one to care too much though, he was pretty selfless... And amazing over all.
