It's Just a Game

1 Chapter: Who's Naruto?

POV Naruto

-Naruto!! Why are you in a hoodie? It's so warm there?! - screamed Sakura right next to my ear. " So annoying... Can you be quiet for even a second? My head is sore because of you.." Is what I wanted to say. But instead I just laughed and kept walking to school with her. Sakura is my friend.. or she thinks she is. She's friends with everyone and I live near her so we walk to school together, she never talks to me at free time, and in school I exist only if she needs homework or any other help in school. " Catfish Bic**h" i really wanna say to her everything i think about her.. But I don't want to get in trouble. She's the school principal's daughter, so if she wants I could get kicked out of school.

Oh... I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Naruto Uzumaki. I'm a 16 years old young man. I live alone, my mom lives near me and we meet really often. I don't have problems with my mom, that isn't the reason why I live alone. My dad had disappeared when I was 11, after that started a hard time for our family. I still remember the lonely evenings when I tried to find even something to eat , because I hadn't eaten for 2 or 3 days. My mom locked herself in her room and just cried and drinked alcohol until she fell asleep. But when policies tried to take me away from her, she started really trying to have a healthy and happy life. After a couple of years my mom first introduced me to her boyfriend. They were a really cute couple, but he couldn't take care of both of us . After him was another one and another and another... I was 15 when I got an idea , "You need even a chance to make your own life and prepare your partner to introduce me to him, I need more space as a teen. So why wouldn't we try to live separately?" My mom agreed and I rented a little apartment. I live in a block of flats on the 5th floor, the building has 7 of them. Near my apartment is a little store and school is not so far. Really good place.

It's been a year since i started to live alone.. and i think i might have a problem. I have earlier said that for me it was absolutely normal not to eat for a couple of days. Well now... it kinda reminds me of a game, how long can I survive without eating. 1 day, 2 days, 3 days, 4 days, 4 and a half... I only stop when I can't continue. I have a couple friends, but my best friend's name is Kiba Inuzuka. He has dark brown hair, dark hazel eyes and two tattoos on his face that remind me of fangs, two red triangles on his cheeks. He doesn't know even near to everything but he knows something and is worried about me every time he sees me starving myself again. He is still a really good friend, the only problem is he and all of my other friends are in different schools...

If you wonder what I look like, I have blonde hair, the ocean blue eyes and... I'm.. really skinny, or Kiba says so every time he sees me in shorts or without a hoodie. Btw that's the reason why on a nice and warm day I'm not taking my hoodie off, it's my protection from everyone else...

Anyway.

We kept walking to school, she told some stories that I don't even listen to anymore. Like always. I was dressed in a black jeans, a pastel blue hoodie with some skull print on the back, I had my normal dirty black shoes on, my old and shabby black bag that I wore on my right shoulder and my hair was like normal in a creative mess. The weather is really nice, the sun is shining. The sky only has a couple of clouds.

I should feel happy, but... why don't I feel anything... except emptiness...

Actually If I think more seriously I don't really remember when was the last time I felt something.. I don't even feel hunger anymore. When was the last time I ate? Yesterday? 2 days ago?Or even more?

But no matter how much I wanted to continue and try to beat my record.. I'm meeting Kiba and my other really good friend named Sabaku no Gaara. I can't not eat with these two, and if I try they will tie me to a chair and force me to eat. Yes I love them, and they are better friends than I can even ask for, but why can't they mind their own business..?
