Meeting Again

Naruto~

After that fateful meeting with Naruto (who'd emptied your wallet), you two had agreed to go out again a week later. Of course, you told Naruto that he had to pay since there was no way you were paying for him to eat six bowls of ramen ever again.
That brings you to the present, as you sat down next to the blonde ninja. "I hate that guy! He thinks he's so great with his duck butt hair and tragic backstory." Naruto whined sullenly. You laughed at his antics, wondering if this Sasuke was as bad as he sounded.
"Well, you guys are on a team now, you have to get along or else your team will fall apart." He crossed his arms with a huff. "Tell him that! He's always trying to make me look bad, believe it!" You stifled a laugh, you felt bad at the genuinely upset expression he had.
You placed a hand on his shoulder. "Forget about him, you're eating ramen! You can't be upset while eating ramen, it just doesn't make sense."

He snickered, digging into his third bowl. "You're right! Now tell me about your team!" You had skipped the last year of the academy, so even though you were the same age, you were a year ahead.
"My teammates are (guy friend name) and (other guy friend name). We make a pretty great team, even though they can be total idiots." I finished my bowl of ramen, completely full.
"Lucky," he pouted, thinking, "I have an idea! How about we hang out a few times a week so we can relax after a long day of dealing with idiots?" I giggled, but that actually sounded like a great idea.
Even though the two of you had a lot in common, you balanced each other out perfectly. He was impulsive and loud, while you was more level headed and quiet.

"Sounds good to me! Say, after this, we should prank Sasuke. Are you up for it?" His evil grin matched yours. "Definitely! Should we dye his hair pink?"

Sasuke~

You and Sasuke had easily fallen into a routine. You'd spar and train together as the sun begins to leave the sky, then the two of you would watch the stars for a while. Sometimes you would talk about things that neither told anyone else and other times you would spend it in silence. Today was not one of those days. Sasuke had asked you to tell a story of when you ad Deidara were young. He didn't give you a reason but you were happy to indulge.

"Deidara and I didn't really have a happy childhood, our parents made sure of that... but sometimes, when he would earn enough money by selling sculptures, he would take me places." You smiled wistfully at the memory.
"Where?" You shrugged. "Anywhere I wanted. Out for dinner, a candy store... he bought me a kitten once. Tell me a good memory of your brother." For once Sasuke's face didn't harden at the mention of Itachi if anything, it softened.
"He used to do this thing, a forehead poke... I'd ask him something and if he couldn't answer or was too busy he'd say sorry, poke me and say next time." You turned to him, curiously. "He would just... poke your forehead?" Sasuke chuckled quietly.
"Just like this." He took his middle and index fingers and all but jabbed them into your forehead. You grunted, rubbing your head. "Ow," You pouted. The Uchiha just shrugged. "Yep, it used to bother me too."

It was quiet for a moment, the two of you just watching the stars. "You said your parents didn't want you guys to have a childhood. Why?" You looked at him for a long second. "They hated us. Hated Dei's hand mouths, hated my forehead tattoo, hated our need to blow things up..." He scrutinized you for a second. "Forehead tattoo?" You nodded but didn't move to show him. You just weren't ready yet. Luckily, he seemed to understand that.

The two of you didn't stay for much longer, but it had been a good night. Sasuke and you had a lot in common, and it seemed to form a bond between the two of you.

Neji~

Somehow you'd let Ino and Hinata drag you to the mall. They had assured you it'd be fun, light shopping and then you'd all go out for sushi afterward. You knew you'd regret it, but you loved hanging out with your friends, so you agreed. You were right, of course, the second Ino and Hinata stepped into the first store they had made it clear they were going for a whole new wardrobe.
You, on the other hand, had a specific agenda in mind. You just wanted to purchase a few hair accessories. Hairbands, clips, and the like. But, no, the girls insisted on dragging you everywhere.
"(Y/N), we're going to try these on, we'll be right back, ok?" Ino grinned, already halfway in the dressing room. "Yep..." They were already gone as you sat down knowing you had to wait. This was the sixth store and you were already more than a little irritated.
"Bored, (Y/N)?" You whipped around, already knowing who the smooth voice belonged to. "Neji? What are you doing here?" You didn't even try to hide your smile. It'd been a week since you'd met him ad you were hoping you'd get to see him again.
