Chapter Text
I want to fall in love. I want to get married, wear the white dress, and kiss the bride. I want to raise a family of my own and give them the love I never had growing up. I want to spend the rest of my life with the one I love, Kakashi-senpai.
My eyes struggled to stay open as I sat through the afternoon lecture. My head bopped back and forth to the sound of my teachers boring words. I was tired of listening and just wanted to nap.
"Hey Naruko," whispered my friend Sakura who sat besides me, "Wake up or Iruka's going to give you detention again!"
I looked over at her a gave a groggy smile, "I'll be fine~" I slurred half asleep.
She facepalmed herself with a sigh, "That's what you always say..."
Again, my eyelids continued to become heavy, making it hard for me to hold up head up. When will this day end?
"Naruko!"
My eyes quickly shot open as my heart raced in my chest. I looked forward to see Iruka-sensei glaring at me with his arms folded amongst each other. I quickly stood up and acted as if I never was asleep.
"Yes?" I asked loudly.
"Care to give us all a summary on what we've been reading about?"
"Uh..." I quickly glanced over to Sakura in hopes she could give me the answer, but instead she shook her head and sighed.
"We're all waiting," he stated clearly annoyed with me.
"Uh well...you see-" my eyes scanned the room for answers before turning down to look at the cover of my book. Romeo and Juliet...I've seen that movie and the movie can't be that far from the actual play, right? Welp, it's time to fake it till I make it.
I cleared my throat and began to bullshit my way through: "So far, since we've only read the first act-"
"We're on Act 2, Naruko..." corrected my teacher.
I laughed nervously and continued my bullshit, "Yeah act 2, that's what I meant..." Okay so I guess they kept reading while I was asleep...
I cleared my throat again and continued, "So basically there are these two lovers, right? And they're like in love with each other, but they're both in mob families and the families hate each other. So the mobsters wanna keep em apart--or did they not even know they were in love yet--but anyway, the point is they were two star crossed lovers who just wanted to love, ya know? So yeah, that's about it."
I heard the slap of Sakura's hand as it hit her forehead and the sighs of disappointment from my teacher. Soon the class began to laugh because of my ridiculous synopses.
"You're an idiot!" laughed Kiba.
"Shut up, dog boy!" I retorted.
His smile turned into a frown as he stood up from his seat, "At least I'm not an idiot!"
"Well at least I don't have dog breath!"
"Shut up, ramen brain!"
We glared at each other from across the room and continued to throw insults as each other.
"Stupid mut!"
"Dumb blonde!"
"That is it!" yelled Iruka-sensei angrily, "Both of you will stay after school and spend an hour in detention!"
We both began to protest, making the situation worse, and once Iruka let out a scream, we knew we were really in trouble. "Go stand in the hall way!"
I rolled my eyes and pushed my chair in with a kick of my foot. Kiba slammed the door open and I slammed it shut. This wasn't the first time we've gotten in trouble, and quite frankly I never really cared about detention, but today I did.
Today was Kakashi-senpai's basketball game with our rivaling school, Saint Madara Academy, and I wanted to be there to cheer on the love of my life.
But instead, I'm now spending an hour in detention; even if I had time to go right after detention, I wouldn't have time to buy a ticket before they sell out. Everyone wanted to go to our home game to support Kakashi-senpai, especially if there was a chance some player might knock off his face mask.
I leaned against the wall of the hallway, crossing my arms as I glared at Kiba who stood in front of me. "This is all your fault."
"My fault? It's your fault!"
"Ugh see?! This is why we get in trouble! Because you don't know how to keep your stupid mouth shut, I'm not gonna be able to see Kakashi-senpai's game!"
Kiba rolled his eyes. "You and your stupid crush."
We waited in the hallway until the bell rang. As soon as everyone left, Iruka-sensei stepped out of the classroom and had us follow him to the detention room.
I stared at the clock for what felt like hours. Ten minutes had just gone by and Iruka sensei never cared to look away from us. Escaping detention was impossible.
"You two are always fighting with one another. There's never a day where you two keep your mouths shut! I'm sick and tired of spending an extra hour after school just to babysit you fools! I don't get paid enough for this!" Iruka had started his usual lecture, and like always, we never cared to listen.
I rolled my eyes and the banged my head against the desk. "You know if you just let us go you wouldn't have to be here too, right?"
"Yeah. Why put yourself through this? It's not like we even care about detention," added Kiba.
I heard Iruka start to stutter in anger. His words jumbled together until he final broke: "You know what?! You're right! I should be out on a date right now, not watching you two sorry fools!"
I lifted my head off of the desk and saw him packing his things into a bag. "Forget detention for today, I'm going home!" He threw on his bag angrily and stormed out the door.
Kiba and I then stared at each other in confusion. "What was that?" We asked in unison.
He shrugged his shoulders and stood up from the desk. "Well, I'm outta here. See ya blondie." In moments he left the room too.
I sighed and looked back at the clock, hoping I could still make it to my senpai's game. Looks like there's still 30 minutes until the game starts. If I rush, I can still make it on time!
I jumped out of my seat and swung my book bag onto my shoulders. I quickly took out my phone and called my best friend before leaving the room.
"Sakura-chan~ I got outta detention early!"
"Naruko, when will you ever learn?"
"Probably never if I'm being honest, but that's besides the point! Since I'm out early, we can totally make it to Kakashi-senpai's game~!"
"Naruko, I told you I can't because I'm going to a mixer, remember? I literally invited you during lunch."
"Oh...I forgot, haha!"
"Come on Naruko, forget that game and just come with me. You're never going to get Kakashi-senpai to fall for you, so just come with me to the mixer so we can find some more obtainable guys."
"Sakura-chan, I do not appreciate your negativity. I already told you, Kakashi-senpai and I are meant to be! I see him in my dreams every night, so it has to be a sign!"
"You see him in your dreams because you're always thinking about him! You even order your freaking ramen to look like him!"
I laughed awkwardly as I remembered my Kakashi face-shaped ramen. "In my defense, his face tasted delicious. Just give me a few weeks and then I'll really be able to tell you how his face really tastes like, if you know what I'm saying."
"Eww gross! Naruko, you're such a perv!"
"You walked into that one yourself, haha!"
"Ugh, you really can't keep chasing some guy you'll never have. Just come with me to the mixer so we can get your mind off of him."
I sighed at her words. Maybe she's right. Maybe it's time I move on from my obsessive crush.
I looked back at the clock and saw that ten minutes had just passed by. Maybe it wasn't meant to be, me going to his game.
"Alright Sakura-chan, I'll go with you to the mixer."
She squealed happily from over the phone.
"I'll come by your apartment at 6! See ya in a few hours!"
I hung up the phone and stared at the time on my screen. It's almost 4 o'clock...I won't make it to his game
"I guess it really wasn't meant to be..." I shoved my phone back into the pocket of my skirt and went to open the door. I was about to reach for the door when it suddenly slid open.
"What the-?" I directed my attention to the tall, raven haired man that stood before me. His eyes were black as night and his stare as cold as the snow in winter. He was handsome even with the frown he had for a smile.
I felt my cheeks grow warm from the sight of the handsome stranger. I couldn't take my eyes off of him no matter what I tried to do.
The stranger stared at me, sending shivers down my spine. His lips then began to move, releasing a deep hypnotizing voice. "I finally found you," he said with his soothing voice.
I was absolutely mesmerized by the stranger that I completely disregarded the strange statement he had said.
The raven haired man sighed and pushed me aside, closing the door behind him. "Even in this era you can't stop looking at me..."
This era? What--snap out of it Naruko! A pervert just entered the building and you're just staring at his beauty! Wake up!
I quickly shook my head and moved back. "Who are you and how do you know me?!" I yelled as I rummaged through my bag to find my pepper spray.
He rubbed his temples and let out an annoyed sigh: "Loud as always, I see...Why did I ever marry you?"
Marry? What is this handsome pervert talking about?!
My hand finally found the pepper spray, so I took the chance to quickly yank it out of my back and aim it at the handsome demon. "Who are you?!" I repeated.
He clicked his tongue and looked at me with his flawless, emotionless face. "My name is Sasuke Uchiha and I am your husband from the future."
