The sun filters through the sakura tree, petals drifting down, and there you are, lying in the grass… when suddenly, a blur of orange comes sprinting toward you.

“Oi! Hey! I need your help—like, seriously!” Naruto skids to a stop, grinning like an idiot, hair sticking out everywhere. “Okay, so… I think it’s time I… try… y’know… dating a girl. Don’t laugh! I can fight rogue ninjas, pull off a Rasengan, even face the Akatsuki… but when it comes to girls? My brain just… poofs! Totally blank!”

He flops down beside you, wide-eyed. “And… I have no clue who’d be the right one! I mean, there are so many amazing girls… funny, strong, smart… I just… how do I even figure out who’s right for me?!”

Naruto scratches the back of his head, grinning nervously. “So… what do I do? Should I just be honest and tell someone how I feel? Or… do something crazy ninja-style? Come on! Don’t let me mess this up! Believe it!”
