Boruto Shippuden: Borusara Edition

Chapter 2: Close friends

"Boruto? Wha.. What are you... Youre back?" She says with a shocked face. Her cheeks beginning to feel warmer as borutos grip loosens from her wrist and begins to trail down to her hand and just on her fingers to hold them.

"I am, suprised?"

Her memory starts to trace back to the day he left her. After he touched her on the forehead like that. It was a symbol of love but... Did he understand that? Does he feel the same way as she does? What if it was all just a way for him to say goodbye?
What if...

"Sarada? Hellooo... Are you daydreaming again?"

"Uh.. What? No no... I was just... Nevermind. Im, glad, that youre back. Youve changed quite alot. A little taller than me now baka" she says looking towards him. His blue ocean eyes reflecting the moonlight and the lights of the surrounding training grounds. He was alot taller than her than she had said. Just looking at this new matured and changed boruto has made her get butterflies in her stomach.

Sarada pov
"Boruto is.... Is.... Ugh i gotta pull myself together. I cant embarrass myself again" she thinks to herself, rolling her eyes at her frustration at something as stupid as this, at this baka boruto no baka boruto.

"Well youve changed too. You look, different. A good different" he says while looking away at that last bit.

"Tch... He cant say it either, such a baka......hmm....UGH stop it channaroo!! "

Things were getting tense between them. His hand was still holding her fingers. After he realized he was still holding it he quickly pulled away and scratched his head, although it doesnt look like it, but she knew he was definitely embarrassed. Sarada felt rather sad that he pulled away, not that she should be but maybe it was for the best, or else things couldve gotten weird or something.

"So wanna go get something to eat? I uhm... Wanted to find you first before everyone else." He said, trying to change the topic before he does anything irrational.

"Yeah... Sure" she said following up beside him as they left the training grounds.

The two couldnt help but take a few glances at each other every few minutes, maybe even seconds. Boruto's chest and body was broad and wide. He didnt look 17,he looked like 20. Sarada felt really awkward to be around him but at the same time, she felt at peace, as if this was the place she was meant to be. At his side at all times. "Together.... With boruto"
She thought, thinking of how their relationship would be like if they did indeed, become a couple.

"Tsch! I gotta focus, i gotta stop.... Thinking about that."

"The leaf hasnt really changed that much huh...i miss this place" boruto said to break the awkward silence as they walked side by side.

"Hn..maybe its just you who's changed" sarada says with a smile. His heart skipped a beat when he saw that smile.

"You look like a dummy with that look on your face... hehe" she says trying to ease up the tension between them. Then she lightly punches his arm.

"Ha-ha very funny, you should see yours when youre clearly blushing" boruto comesback, with intent to mess with her.

"Baka!! Thats not funny!" She chases him around and behind a few shops until she corners him up against a wall. Boruto had his hands up in surrender but she grabs his collar anyway and looks him straight in the eye.

"Boruto! You little... "

"Sarada..." He says with a soothing tone. His eyes glowing, his body relaxes and his hand moves to her hand on his collar. He slowly rubs tiny circles on top of it while the both of them stare at each other.

"No.. Dont... Dont do that" she says, loosening her grip on his jacket collar.
The gesture he's doing somehow calms and comforts her.

"Do what?" He says, still using the same tone and gesture and moves away from the wall behind him, closing the distance between them. But sarada steps back slowly, unsure of how she should deal with this.

"Boruto..." Her hand still in his but her legs moving backwards. Her other hand clenched in a fist, as if bracing for something to happen. However, boruto advances, he too is unsure, his initial intent was to just calm her down to let him go but his heart wasnt telling him the same. They move all the way back against the opposite wall where sarada now laid.

His hand gently touched her cheek while the other was up against the wall above her head. Her eyes displayed a sign of shock but hidden in them was a pinch of lust.

Their faces, so close they could touch. The tension between them needed to be gone. Their hearts racing, her cheeks as red as ever. Both silent the whole way. He then mustered up the courage to pull a strand of her hair to the back of the ear.

"Sarada..I.."

"Ah i see youre back home, boruto"

They quickly pull away from each other, both blushing and embarrassed, but above all scared of what he saw. They didnt want mitsuki to say anything he shouldnt.

"I always knew you two would end up with each other sometime."

"Oh...uhh hi Mitsuki, were you standing there the entire time?" Boruto said, sounding abit dissapointed that he interrupted what he was gonna say to sarada but a little relieved as well. Maybe the timing isnt right.

"Nope, I just got here. I was looking for sarada, she was supposed to meet us at the burger shop but she wasnt at the training grounds. Im glad I found her here with you though." He says with his happy-like usual mitsuki expression.

"Oh, alright then, we'll head there right away" sarada says rather softly, she was still trying to get over the rollercoaster of emotions that had occured to her a few moments ago.

Mitsuki observed sarada and then glanced over at boruto, noticing his messed up collar and the position he found them in. He made a conclusion.

"Did I interrupt something? Hm.. Were you guys kissing?"

"What?! No she was telling me that i...
What?! No... Well you see we were chasing each other and...." They said together.

"Uhh guys?. Its alright, I know you two make a great couple anyways"

"Ugh! I cant deal with this right now, I'll see you guys there!" Sarada said, walking away angrily, her face red but not because she was angry, but because she was blushing and embarrassed.

"That baka boruto, baka mitsuki, baka dad, bringing him home without notice. Im not mentally trained for this chanaaroo!" She thinks to herself. But deep down, what was happening before mitsuki came was not that all bad, a part of her wanted it, and another part of her was just afraid... Maybe this whole thing wont work. But one part was missing. She had to find out what had boruto wanted to say to her. Jt made her more curious now than ever. Did he want to confess? Did... He?
"Ive got to find out, no matter what"

Meanwhile...

"Damn it mitsuki, now she's mad."
Boruto sighed.

"Well at least I know now that you like her." He said , trying to cheer him up.

"I dont know....I..I..hargghhh! I really cant keep secrets from you can I?" Boruto's frown turned into a sly smile.

"Shes sarada dattebasa. Everyone likes her. Its just that...I think i should be there with her,for her. I dont know what this is...i didnt feel it then when we were kids but for some reason when i saw her at the training grounds just now, it felt stronger than it ever was and...... I think she can feel it too.

Mitsuki just smiles at boruto.
"Love"
