Escaping His Past (Naruto/Akatsuki FF)

Chapter 6: Angel

I went to class the next day without Teruko because I wanted to walk by myself. Eventually, Dad was gonna find out about my suicide attempt and he's not gonna be happy. I still don't know why I should be a ninja. Naruto's not gonna be there, so what's the point?

I sighed to myself and headed to class. When I entered the room, I was surprised to see Naruto. "No way..." I ran over to him. "Naruto?" I said. 

"Huh? Hey, Eita! What's up? You're a bit late today," Naruto greeted with a smile. "Hey, you got a headband, too! That's awesome!"

"I don't understand. You didn't pass, yet you're here." I said. "I know! Isn't it great! I've gotta tell you all about it! Have a seat!" Naruto said. 

I took my seat next to him and he told me the story of how he got his headband. But he left out the part about him being the Nine-Tails.

"That's some story, Naruto." I commented. "Isn't it? It's so cool!" Naruto said. I smiled at him and petted his head. "Well, I'm glad you were able to graduate. It makes me happy." I said. I noticed a tint of pink on Naruto's cheeks and he grinned at me. 

"By the way, I noticed you were a but late coming in today. Is everything okay?" Naruto asked, the color on his cheeks disappearing.  "Yeah, I just overslept. Don't worry, I'll be fine." I assured him. 

Later on, some commotion started with Naruto when he began glaring at Sasuke, and things took a wrong turn when someone bumped Naruto from behind, making him kiss Sasuke. A lot of girls got angry and were ready to beat up Naruto.

"What's all the commotion out there? What happening?" Inari asked. "Someone bumped Naruto from behind and made him kiss Sasuke. Now some girls are angry at him for it." I explained to her. "I don't get why their getting so worked up over it. It's just a kiss." Inari said.

I looked over at Naruto, noticing the girls were ready to beat him up. I didn't want Naruto getting hurt, but I also didn't want to get involved. However, Naruto is still important to me, so I have no choice but to get involved. 

"Inari, I need you to lend me some of your chakra." I whispered. "I think I know where this is going." Inari replied with a smirk. Once she lent me her chakra, I turned my attention towards the angry girls. "Snow Style: Frozen Wind." 

I blew air towards the girls and turned into ice. The whole class gasped as they saw the girls frozen. "Look at their faces! Priceless!" Inari laughed. "At least now they're quiet. I hate fangirls." I mumbled. 

After Iruka-sensei came in, he saw what I had did and wanted me to undo the jutsu. "Why? They'll thaw out in two hours. Plus, it's a lot more quiet in here." I said. "Undo the jutsu. Now, Eita." Iruka ordered. 

I rolled my eyes with a sigh and did what he said. "Just what I was starting to enjoy the peace and quiet." I mumbled. After I unfroze the annoying fangirls, Iruka-sensei called out the squads. I ended up on Squad 8 with Kiba, Hinata, and Shino.

I was a little disappointed because I wanted to be on the same team as Naruto. Iruka said, that we would meet our jonin teacher after lunch. 'Spectacular.' I thought, sarcastically. When it was lunchtime, everyone left the classroom while I stayed inside.

I didn't feel like eating with my new team. I gazed out the window, bored out of my mind. "Don't tell me you plan sitting her all day until your jonin teacher arrives." Inari said. "Well, what do you suggest I do?" I mumbled.

"Go outside! Go on a walk! Do something! Anything! Don't just sit there like a lazy sloth!"

"You don't have to yell."
