By Your Side~💕

Chapter 4

I blink in attempt to see if my eyes were playing tricks on me.
But Naruto really wasn't there anymore.
It's not like him to go on with out me.

Hell! Naruto takes me everywhere, so him leaving was not okay!

I wan't to go look for him, but my angel is telling me that he just needs some space. I take one last glance at the swing, and turn away towards my family.

~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Minako, you seem upset, is everything alright?" Sakura asks worried.
"It's Naruto, he just randomly left me back at the academy." I sigh

Even though Sakura doesn't necissarily like Naruto, she knows how much he means to me, so she's usually pretty supporting.
"He probably just needed to clear his mind, I mean... his dream was crushed today." She says while playing with her headband.

My heart clenches when I remember Naruto sobbing into my shoulder.
Naruto's a strong kid, he doesn't cry unless his body can't burry anymore pain. So i'm guessing failing the final exam was all he could handle.

Sakura must've seen my pained expression, because she wrapped me in a warm embrace.

I smile to myself lucky to have such an amazing sister. She's not like this at school, because she tries to look cool in front of Sasuke.

Apparently caring for your family is a loser move, maybe that's why i've never had anyone like me before.

Sakura seemed to have read my expression, because she rolled her eyes. "No I don't ignore you in school because of Sasuke, it's because if I started acting close to you, Ino pig would try to get close to you to."

I look at her confused. "Why?"

"Because, she's my rival, she has to show me up on everything."

"Wait, so does that mean she's already tried to be prettier than you, cause she's doing a horrible job at that that." I state

Sakura doubles over in laughter. "Hahahaha! Th-thanks Minako- Heh heh hahaha!" Sakura says as she wipes tears from the corners of her eyes.

Suddenly there was a lot of commotion, I got up and looked out the window; A bunch of Jounin were gathered, I couldn't quite hear what they were saying, so I opened the window.

"Naruto Uzumaki has stole the sacred scroll of forbidden jutsu! This is the last straw, that boy is dangerous, he cannot continue to live!" One of them yell

My eyes widen. 'N-no! Naruto would never do something like that! He doesn't even know what the scroll is, let alone where it was! Someone put him up to this!' Without thinking, I jump out the window, and onto the hard ground.

I watch as they disband in multiple directions, but one person in general catches my eye; Iruka-sensei! If anyone can find Naruto it's him!

I track behind Iruka-sensei for a good hour, untill we (he) find Naruto in the middle of the woods.

"Naruto!" I shout as I crush him in a hug.

"What the fu-heck!?" Sensei almost slips
I send him a glare, before returning my attention to Naruto.

"Are you hurt!? Were you scared!? Don't ever leave me again!" I shake Naruto like a worried mother.

"Heheh, I'm fine. Looks like you guys found me. Man I only had time to master one jutsu." Naruto scratches the back of his head.

I take a closer look at the blonde, and it looks like he's been training long and hard.
(Insert lenny face)

"Iruka-sensei, once I show you this justu, then you'll have to let me pass! Believe it!"
