Above is a screenshot from a TikTok I found but it wouldn't let me PUT THE VIDEO ON HERE BECAUSE IT WASN'T A YOUTUBE URL! Okay, sorry. Its been a skinny minute since I've posted so I'm doing it again. I was brainstorming last night when i was supposed to be sleeping and i may have come up with something so, just bear with me. I just moved so we've been unpacking. Needless to say my house is a mess just like my life but here I am so, enjoy.
Chapter 15
Boruto was already up by the time Himawari came into his room. All dressed and ready to go. He left his room and flew down the steps. He was happy today, happier than he'd been in a while. Everything wasn't upside down anymore. He ran to the door and started slipping his shoes on. " Aren't you going to eat breakfast ", his mom asked. She gave him a curious look. " No, I'm okay mom, don't wanna be late!", he smiled brightly. He waved goodbye and exited the house. Hinata stared after him, a smile on her face.
He skipped to where Konohamaru had told them to meet that day. All the wight of the past couple weeks had been lifted off his shoulders and he felt much better.
When he arrived at the meeting place, the only one there was Sarada. She was leaning on a nearby fence reading a book. Oh shoot, it's her, he thought in a panic. Even thought things where, somewhat, smoothed over between them, it didn't make it any less awkward.
She looked up at him and frowned. " You're here early", she said in a monotone voice. He gawked. How could she be so calm? Did she not remember anything? "Why're you just standing there like an idiot? ", she asked.
" Oh, I, um- hey! I'm not an idiot!", he shouted.
Sarada smirked at him and put her book in her pocket. She turned and leaned her folded arms on the fence. He walked over and stood next to her. They stood there for a minute in silence. Boruto watched her. He was confused. How can she be so nonchalant about all of this? I mean, we, kissed , like, three times, he wondered.
" Hey Sarada?", he asked, looking her way. " Hn?", she grunted.
" A-are we gonna talk about," he gestured between the two of them with his fingers, " this? us?", he asked nervously.
She turned and gave him a hard stare. " No", she said flatly. He held her gaze and they just looked at each other for a while.
" hello", both Sarada and Boruto jumped. They turned around to see Mitsuki smiling creepily at the two of them. " I hope I'm not interrupting anything?", he smiled even wider.
" In your dreams you creepy bastard! Don't sneak up on us like that!", yelled Boruto. He then looked away blushing. Mitsuki might've heard our conversation.... he flushed and deeper shade of red.
Konohamaru arrived and gave them their mission. It was simple, retrieve some lady's cat. That was easy enough so the three of them completed it quickly. Returning the lady's cat and getting off early.
Mitsuki and Konohamaru went their separate ways, leaving Boruto and Sarada alone.
" Hey Sarada, walk with me?", he asked, trying to sound calm, but inside his heart was pounding. He smiled meekly.
She smiled back. " Sure Boruto", she said. He blushed and started walking.
She walked beside him, they were going in no particular direction, but kept walking. She walked ahead of him, turned around and started walking backwards in front of him.
" I can't believe that you of all people had a crush on me", she gave him a mocking smile.
He narrowed his eyes, but couldn't hide his red face. He grumbled in frustration.
She walked over to him and stood right in front of his face. " Hah! I'm still taller than you!", she gave him a smug look.
He smirked and pecked her on the lips quickly. Her whole face turned red " B-boruto what the hell!", she yelled. He ran away before she could hit him.
" I'm going to get you back for this!", she yelled after him.
I'm sorry. This was short, but i need to sleep.
