　　翻译：
　　小樱十五岁，她第一次真正的暗恋发生在和一个名叫佐助的男孩打架的时候。他在那里只是因为火影忍者和他是朋友，她不喜欢他看着火影忍者，当他认为没有其他人在看时，所以她告诉他走开。她不想让他嫉妒。
　　她可以很好地处理自己。完全没什么可担心的。也许她很确定自己太喜欢男孩了，而且她对站在佐助身边的男孩有一种非常糟糕的感觉。
　　在与佐助的战斗中，小樱没有注意——看着鸣人与他战斗比听她的老师描述她应该如何正确地使用查克拉控制来帮助他在他离得太近时躲避她的仙人更令人兴奋。她甚至没有注意到木叶，直到他的声音在空中响起，说：“小樱！樱花！你还好吗？
　　当她的眼睛盯着木叶时，鲜血离开了她的脸，木叶的表情反映了她内心的恐慌。他的手伸向嘴巴，试图掩盖他只是大声喊叫的事实。她很确定他的整个脸现在都是鲜红色的。她快速眨了眨眼，点了一下头，才意识到他不再看她了。
　　木叶深深地松了一口气，让他的手从嘴里掉下来，然后向后靠在他身后的树上，叫喊着。“你吓到我了，”他说。然后他指着佐助，还在和卡卡西的忍术搏斗。“看！那个家伙甚至不知道我刚刚对你说的话。
　　“他可能以为我会打他，”小樱笑着回答。她的眼睛闪过鸣人把佐助压在下面的地方，大喊着指令，而卡卡西则用他的萨利安技术让他无法动弹。然后她回头看了看木叶，给了他一个羞怯的耸耸肩。“对不起。我不是故意大喊大叫。
　　“嘿，没关系，”他说，给了她一个小小的安慰微笑。“我不怪你被吓坏了。我是说，他很热，不是吗？”
　　小樱试图忽略她的肚子在他的话中扭曲成结的方式;她知道，人们评论这个男孩的魅力时，她不应该感到奇怪——每个人都暗恋过佐助或他们的朋友——但事实是，她的朋友告诉她他有多有吸引力，这让她感到......奇怪。
　　她的喉咙开始感到紧绷和干燥，她努力吞咽，试图摆脱那里的肿块。
　　木叶仍然睁大眼睛盯着她，她用力微微一笑地拉扯着她的嘴角。“谢谢，”她说，然后转身离开他，专注于击退最后剩下的赤月成员之一。
　　---
　　第二天，小樱放学后和木叶坐下来，问他是否想来公园里闲逛。然而，当她提到他们今晚有约会时，他就停止了微笑，看起来真的很紧张。
　　“你是...嗯......确定吗？“他问道。小樱茫然地盯着他看了一会儿，试图弄清楚他的意思。然后突然咔哒一声，她想起了木叶之前说过的话——佐助是他的男朋友。
　　“我——呃，是的，”她结结巴巴地说，愤怒地点头，试图消除他们之间的任何尴尬。“我的意思是，我们上周谈到了这一点。我们约定了一个日期，还记得吗？我已经把我的裙子挑出来了。
　　“是的，但你确定要这样做吗？因为如果你不是，我完全理解，小樱，“木叶急忙解释道。“没有压力，伙计。我甚至不会强迫你去，如果你愿意，你可以取消——”
　　“不！”小樱打断了他，几乎大喊大叫，因为她提高了声音。她快速地摇了摇头，好像只要她足够努力，她就能把这些想法从脑子里甩出来。“这对我来说真的很重要。这是我们第一次真正的约会，木叶。
　　他又给了她一个犹豫不决的微笑，小樱感觉到紧张感慢慢地离开了她的身体，回到了以前的自己。
　　“好的。听起来不错，“木叶同意。他们俩站了起来，当小樱去扔掉他们的垃圾时，木叶从地上抓起了他的包。他们开始一起走回家，小樱发现自己迷失在他的笑声中。

　　当他们到达家时，她的母亲已经坐在沙发上喝茶。她的父亲无处可寻。他可能正在工作。

　　“哦，你安全回来了，”她打招呼。“你约会怎么样了，小樱？好玩吗？

　　片刻之后，卡卡西出现在门口，穿着他平时的黑色裤子和灰色衬衫，但又戴上了他的标志性帽子。他朝她笑了笑，向她的母亲点了点头致谢，然后转身上楼，换上更舒适的东西。

　　一如既往，他的突然消失让小樱心跳加速。她爱她的父母，永远不会对他们中的任何一个说任何负面的话，但有时——特别是当外面天黑，卡卡西不在身边的时候——她希望他们没有在没有事先咨询她的情况下收养他。他们从不问她的意见，她也从不大声说出来。她知道他们的心意很好，但有时他们似乎忘记了她也是个孩子。

　　有时，她想尖叫。

　　她尽可能地把这些感觉推开，并尽可能地灿烂地微笑，以掩盖她整个下午都在想这些感觉的事实，并问她的母亲，“你喜欢你的茶吗？”

　　她得到了一个会性的微笑和拍拍肩膀的奖励。“我做到了。谢谢。

　　卡卡西从楼梯上再次出现，穿着他最喜欢的柔宁制服，胳膊下戴着安部面具。他摘下帽子，把它放在桌子上，走近她，拉出她母亲对面的椅子坐下。

　　小樱注意到他坐下时的动作是多么僵硬——他如何避免直视她。

　　卡卡西避免直视她。

　　她想知道这是否意味着他终于找到了他的灵魂伴侣，如果他感到沮丧或失望，因为他不会看她，以及——这意味着什么？他知道他的灵魂伴侣是谁吗？当他们谈论它时，她会找出答案吗？那么，是这样吗？他们终于能够在一起了吗？也許這意味著這是一個男孩——也許她不需要擔心。他会爱她，当然他会，因为她爱他。她太爱他了，不敢看到他受伤。

　　要是她知道他注定要和谁在一起就好了。

　　无论如何，它不像其他人感兴趣。为什么有人会选择她作为他的灵魂伴侣，而他们面前已经有了班上最漂亮的女孩？这肯定是一个错误。

　　“今天你的头发怎么了？”小樱脱口而出，还没来得及想清楚。她立刻后悔了，因为在和父母说话的时候，她随便说话太不合时宜了。她知道她应该在张开肥大嘴巴之前停止自己。

　　卡卡西的肩膀绷紧了，他用一只手穿过他的头发，在意识到他的面具不再遮住他的额头时停止了一半动作。

　　原文：Sakura is fifteen and her first real crush happens in the middle of a fight with a boy named Sasuke. He’s only there because Naruto is friends with him, and she doesn’t like how he looks at Naruto when he thinks no one else is looking, so she tells him to go away. She does not want him to be jealous. It would ruin the whole point of this matchmaking mission that she was sent on for Kakashi to meet his soulmate—which is why she told Kiba to tell the Hyuuga they were fighting a girl who wanted them both dead instead of Sasuke, since it might give them some peace of mind.
　　She can handle herself fine. There’s nothing to worry about at all. Except maybe that she’s pretty sure she likes boys too much, and she has a really bad feeling about the boy standing beside Sasuke.
　　Sakura doesn’t pay attention during the battle with Sasuke—it’s more exciting watching Naruto fight him than it is listening to her teacher describe how she should use chakra control properly to help him dodge her senbon when he gets too close. She doesn’t even notice Kiba until his voice breaks through the air, saying, “Sakura! Sakura! You okay?”
　　The blood leaves her face as her eyes snap to Kiba, whose expression mirrors the same panic she feels inside. His hand reaches up towards his mouth in an attempt to hide the fact that he just shouted out loud; she’s pretty sure his entire face is bright red by now. She blinks rapidly and nods once, before realizing he’s not looking at her anymore.
　　Kiba lets out a deep sigh of relief, letting his hands fall down from his mouth and then leaning back against the tree behind him with a groan. “You scared me,” he says. Then he points over at Sasuke, still struggling with Kakashi’s kunai. “Look! That guy doesn’t even know what I just said to you.”
　　“He probably thought I was going to hit him,” Sakura replies with a smile. Her eyes flick to where Naruto is holding Sasuke down, shouting instructions while Kakashi uses his Sharingan technique to keep him immobilized. Then she looks back at Kiba and gives him a sheepish shrug. “Sorry. I didn’t mean to yell.”
　　“Hey, it’s okay,” he says, giving her a small smile of reassurance. “I don’t blame you for being freaked out. I mean, he’s pretty hot, isn’t he?”
　　Sakura tries to ignore the way her stomach twists into knots at his words; she knows she shouldn’t feel weird about people commenting on the boy’s attractiveness—everyone has had crushes on Sasuke or their friends—but the fact that it’s her friend who’s telling her how attractive he is makes her feel… strange.
　　Her throat starts to feel tight and dry, and she swallows hard to try to get rid of the lump there.
　　Kiba is still staring at her with wide eyes, and she forces a small grin to tug at the corners of her lips. “Thanks,” she says, before turning away from him to focus on fighting off one of the last remaining Akatsuki members.
　　---
　　The next day, Sakura sits down with Kiba after school and asks if he wants to come hang out in the park. As soon as she mentions that they have a date tonight, however, he stops smiling and looks genuinely nervous.
　　“Are you… um… sure about that?” he asks. Sakura stares at him blankly for a moment, trying to figure out what he means. Then suddenly it clicks, and she remembers what Kiba said earlier—that Sasuke was his boyfriend.
　　“I—uh, yeah,” she stammers, nodding furiously, trying to dispel any awkwardness between them. “I mean, we talked about it last week. We agreed on a date, remember? I already got my dress picked out.”
　　“Yeah, but are you sure you want to do it? Because if you aren’t, I totally understand, Sakura,” Kiba rushes to explain. “There’s no pressure, man. And I wouldn’t even force you to go, you can cancel if you want to—”
　　“No!” Sakura cuts him off, almost yelling as she raises her voice. She shakes her head quickly, as though she could shake the thoughts out of her brain if she just tried hard enough. “It’s—it’s really important to me. This is our first real date, Kiba.”
　　He gives her another hesitant smile, and Sakura feels the tension slowly leave her body as he returns to his old self.
　　“Okay. Sounds good to me,” Kiba agrees.

　　The two of them stand up, and when Sakura goes to throw their trash away, Kiba grabs his bag from the ground. They start walking home together, and Sakura finds herself getting lost in the sound of his laughter.
　　When they arrive at their house, her mother is already sitting on the couch, sipping tea. Her father is nowhere to be found; he’s probably working.
　　“Oh, you made it back safely,” she greets. “How did your date go, Sakura? Was it fun?”
　　Kakashi appears in the doorway moments later, dressed in his usual outfit of black pants and a grey shirt, but wearing his signature hat again. He smiles at her and gives her mother a nod of acknowledgment, before turning around and heading upstairs to change into something more comfortable.
　　As always, his sudden disappearance makes Sakura’s heart race. She loves her parents and will never say anything negative about either of them, but sometimes—especially when it’s dark outside and Kakashi isn’t around—she wishes they hadn’t adopted her without consulting her first. They never asked her opinion, and she never said it out loud. She knew they meant well, but sometimes they seemed to forget that she is a kid, too. Sometimes they forgot that she needs their guidance, that she needs someone who cares about her and wants to take care of her.
　　And sometimes, she wants to scream.
　　She pushes those feelings away as best she can and smiles as brightly as she can to mask the fact that she’s been thinking about them all afternoon, and asks her mother, “Did you enjoy your tea?”
　　She’s rewarded with a knowing smile and a pat on the shoulder. “I did. Thank you.”
　　Kakashi reappears from the stairs, dressed in his favorite jounin uniform and with his ANBU mask tucked under his arm. He takes off his hat and places it on top of the table as he walks closer to her, pulling out the chair opposite her mother and sitting down.
　　Sakura notices how stiff his movements are as he sits down—how he avoids looking directly at her.
　　Kakashi is avoiding looking directly at her.
　　She wonders if that means he finally found his soulmate, and if he’s upset or disappointed, because he won’t look at her, and—and what does that mean? Does he know who his soulmate is? Will she find out the answers when they talk about it? Is this it, then? Are they finally going to be able to be together? Maybe that means it is a boy—maybe she doesn’t need to worry. He’ll love her, of course he will, because she loves him. She loves him too much to see him hurt. She loves him enough to make him happy, to love him enough to wait for him.
　　If only she knew who he was destined to be with.
　　It isn’t like anyone else is interested, anyway. Why would someone choose her to be his soulmate when they already have the prettiest girl in class right in front of them? It must be a mistake, surely.
　　“What’s wrong with your hair today?” Sakura blurts out before she can think better of it. She immediately regrets it, because it’s so out of character for her to speak randomly when talking to her parents. She knows she should have stopped herself before she opened her big fat mouth.
　　Kakashi’s shoulders tense as he runs a hand through his hair, stopping mid motion at the realization that his mask is no longer covering his forehead.
