Chapter 41 - A Different Style (1/2)

'Cheerleaders? Americans too.'

Naruto noticed out of the side of his eye, while he was eating his lunch (they were being given a break) that cheerleaders from the American U.A. branch were going to go and get their own lunches. It would be about a hour or two until the next big event would start, so all of the students were being given a break to chow down on something, and maintain their energy for their fights. Since the last big event was going to be a massive tournament, a tournament that would include all of those who had won the Second Event. For once, Naruto was actually enjoying his lunch alone, seeing as his closest friends were all in the tournament with him, and they thinking on their own strategies to use against each other.

”Uzumaki Naruto, may I eat with you?”

”Hmmm? Sure, take a seat, doesn't bother me.” Naruto glanced up and saw a shorter, red haired, boy sit down across from him with a far more modest lunch than Naruto himself was eating. He had a somewhat similar haircut to him, but his body was far less toned, showing he wasn't part of the Hero Course. With how he was smartly dressed, even in his gym uniform, Naruto would guess he was part of the business course. ”Whatcha want?” Naruto asked as he, for the most part, actually ignored the boy and continued to enjoy his own meal.

He could eat with him, but Naruto wasn't interested in talking business.

”I'm Sabaku Gaara, a pŀėȧsurė to meet you. Your performance in the first two events was a marvel to behold, I'll start with.”

”... Get to the point.” Naruto wasn't going to be having any of that. Gaara nodded his head, before he passed Naruto a card with his name and contact information on it. Naruto looked at it, and saw that it was pretty nice. Gaara dropped any pretense he had before, and put on a far less emotional face.

”When it is time to graduate, I believe that we could do business together. You seem like the type to start up your own agency, instead of being a sidekick, so I believe it would be best to give this to you now. Have a good meal.”

With that, the boy was gone, leaving Naruto to think about what he had said. Naruto waited until he was out of sight, before he put the card in his pocket, and stopped thinking about the boy.

”Hey Naruto-”

”-I can, and will, stab you if this isn't good Denki.” Naruto lifted his fork up, and showed it to Denki with a threatening glance. This was twice now that he was going to be interrupted while eating, and he didn't like to be interrupted from his meals. Denki raised his hands up, before he sat down next to Naruto a wrapped an arm around his shoulders.

Naruto raised an eyebrow.

”Those cheerleaders passed by here just now, right? You know, the American looking girls... don't you think that Class A would really experience a raise in moral if our girls were to don those attractive outfits themselves?” Denki tried to sound smart.

”Toru might agree to it, but I doubt the others would. Mina and Ochaco would have fun, after you got them to agree, but there is no way that Kyoka would enjoy it... not sure about Momo or Tsuyu... but good luck getting them all to agree.” Naruto stated to the boy as he went back to eating, deciding to ignore this stupid conversation. His mind drifted for a moment, and he imagined all of the girls in cheerleading oufits. ”... though they would look nice...” Naruto admitted after a moment, and Denki grinned a little and nodded his head.

His plan could work!

”Naruto, just the man I wanted to see.”

”Mina, I'm not going to not beat you up if we fight each other.” Naruto reminded her when she came to sit down. She gulped at the reminder that there was a chance that they would have to fight, before she sighed, and nodded her head. Denki suddenly pale a little, since there was a girl there, and that wouldn't bode well for his plan. It would seriously ruin his cool guy reputation to be heard saying perverted stuff. ”After lunch, it looks like there are going to be cheerleaders doing a show to keep spirits up. Think you can convince the other girls to join in on that?” Naruto asked her nonchalantly, since once more, he wasn't really in a position to be asking any of the other girls to do that.

Mina thought on it.

”Those uniforms are cute... and if I'm a cheerleader, I get to dance on national TV... Why the other girls though?” Mina actually kind of liked Naruto bringing up the idea in such a calm way. Now that she looked at the cheerleaders that were eating, she was seeing how cute the uniform was, and thinking on how great it would be in Naruto saw her dancing in the uniform. Not to mention, she always kind of wanted to try cheerleading to, since it looked like it was really fun. ”You're not allowed to perv on other girls, only me... you're already on thin ice for having Toru nȧkėd on you.” Mina poked Naruto's cheek.

Denki registered those words, and remembered how seeing that.

Toru was on Naruto's shoulders... buŧŧ nȧkėd... their bodies touching skin to skin.

”I wish I was you.” Denki spoke with a self-loathing frown, since his body wasn't strong enough to support a nȧkėd girl, hide his boner, and fight all at the same time. Otherwise he would have wished to be in Naruto's position.

”Denki brought it up, and I thought the girls might have fun if they gave it a chance. Some of them lost pretty badly in the Second Event, and this could be fun for them. Ochaco threw up on national television... she kind of needs this to get her image back as a cute girl.” Naruto spoke his thoughts a little, and both Mina and Denki winced when they realized that she did do that. The girl had been really depressed since lunch started, one for losing in such a way, and two for throwing up on TV. She needed something to help her relax, since she was out of the third event.
