Everyone knows Sakura Haruno used to be teased because of her large forehead, and that Ino Yamanaka was the first to befriend and stand up for her, but what if she want the only one. What if there was another.

Reiji Tsukiya is just that person. He hates those who bully others. So when he sees Sakura being bullied one day on his way home from running an errand for his mother, he quickly runs to her defense. Since then, he keeps a close eye on her and tries to help her see that she's not weak person, but in fact stronger then she realizes. Even though she loves another, Reiji will do anything to keep her safe, even lay down his own life for hers. He just hopes that one day, a day will come when she sees how much she really means to him.
