Love is Difficult (Discontinued)

Chapter 11

- Naruto's POV-

Morning had came way too soon for my liking, and I wish I could sleep for a few more hours.

But then I remembered: the exam is today.

I quickly shot out of my bed to making my way to my bathroom. I did the usual routine that everyone would follow in the morning.

But the only difference is that I rub some cream on my face, and don't judge me because I'm only doing this to take care of my skin and beauty.

I puffed out my cheeks, and then I realized I was talking to myself in my head.

Jeez, everything from yesterday must have done a number on me.

I ate breakfast even though our-soon-to-be sensei said not to.

I'm such a rebel.

I was slowly making my way towards the training grounds, and of course I have a henge on. I only do this when I'm out in public on my own, because of past experiences.

And no one suspects a thing, and it saves me from the usual harassment that I get.

My henge was just an ordinary civilian. So, it wouldn't raise any eyebrows from anyone. And this is the only time when I feel normal.

I had finally made it close to the training grounds, and before I officially made it there I hid behind a tree to undo my justu.

Then I was about to greet everyone, but it was only me there.

Strange....

I tried not to pay any attention to this strange event as I tried to relax under a tree. Even though it has looked like I had guard down, but I was listening to every that was in my hearing radius.

I heard all types of things, and some things that should stay private. Like who talks about how their special night had gone, especially since they were going into great detail.

I shivered ever so slightly as I tried to focus on trying to hear anything else.

That's when I heard it. It made me shot up and tense.

It sounds like someone I know, but can't put my finger on it. It for sure sounded like the person was talking to a group, or a small crowd.

I heard, "Naruto is such a whore"

They had stopped for a moment before I had heard an uproar of laughter emerging.

I had desperately was trying to find the source of where this was coming from; wanting to know who is saying this. But I don't know why I am caring so much about this comment when I already hear tons of them almost everyday.

Maybe it's because I had never been called a whore?
Or maybe it's because it sounds like people I know?

I don't want to start thinking as to why I am getting so worked up on this. All I wanted to do was know who was saying this, and why.

I looked around and saw something that I should have expected, but I had still gotten shock by it.

It was Sakura who was saying it, and she had managed to gather up some of the girls from the academy, and some people I have never seen before, to gossip about me.

I stood amazed at how people would side with her. But that is to expected that a demon like me is to be the lowest of everyone. I started to notice my eyes to start watering, but I refuse to start crying over smithing small like this.

I swiftly wiped the tears that were threatening to break from my eye's.

I was going to start to try and clear my mind.

Before I saw Sakura pull something out of her pocket, and say something that was muttered with pure hatred, "He's a two-timing bitch. And I don't know how he is able to do this with Kiba and Sasuke," she continued, " and he's not even that good looking. Only if they knew what he really was then they would start running to me saying, 'I love you, Sakura-Chan".

I got confused and got curious as to what she had shown them to look so disgusted and started to applaud her for being so kind to protect Sasuke and Kiba, from me.

I had no restraints from stopping my curiosity from wanting to see what she had in her hand. From where I was I could only guess that it was a photograph, but so wanted to know than just that.

So, I had successfully, and stealthily, got behind Sakura. Well, not directly behind her, because she would've noticed someone behind her. But I was able to hide above on a tree, and I had gotten a better look.

I had masked my all of my chakra as I learned this a long time ago. And I had gotten help from my friend Kurama. He is current away from me on a type of "vacation", and I would occasionally do this for him because he deserves to be out on his own in a wide, open area. That's his natural instincts. And it wasn't his fault for doing the things he was forced to do. Also, because he's been with me since I met him as a small child from being attacked from the people that were saved by my parents. I know everything of what happened, and why it had happened. But, just a little longer I will still act like a foolish, 10 year-old.

But continuing to what is at hand I stood frightened and enraged.

She had a picture of Kiba and I when we got a little caught up in the moment. I still can't believe he was so close to my face like that. I had slowly blushed, but I had pushed those feelings down as I tried to look at the other photo she had.

I couldn't see it, because it was hiding behind the photo of Kiba and me.

That was until...

Another update will be soon!

I'm sorry I didn't update for a week. Again I am very sorry.
