Eunoterpsia: Chapter One

Eunoterpsia

My name is Minato Namikaze, at the age of 15 I am at 5’9 and around 150. I go to school in Japan and live mostly alone in a quiet town with around 150 or so residents. Our town is famous for the ancient ruins and is located at the base of the famous “Face Mountain.” The “Face Mountain” has many rumors surrounding it some saying that etched into the mountainside were the “God’s Faces” others saying the great men who slayed the dragons like it was said it in the local nursery rhymes were etched there,
“The four great men stood together,
Facing all of hell,
They fought for their families,
Brandished their swords,
And drove back all of hell.”
But the rumor that interested me most was the one where if you climbed the top on a full moon the thing you wanted most would come true. I liked this one the most because, that is exactly what I planned to do. I planned to invite my loved one to climb the face with me where at the top I would confess to her my love.
It was around eleven o’clock and earlier in the day during school I asked my childhood friend, my loved one, Kushina Uzumaki, to meet me at the face of the mountain.
Kushina was excited to try out what I had in mind because I usually had good ideas, I say usually because one time I landed us both a two week suspension but that’s another story. Kushina was two years older than me but that didn’t get in the way of our friendship. We always hung out, ALWAYS. At school our nickname was the inseparable pair but we had a good reason to be inseparable, other than the fact we both liked each other, we lost both our parents in the same car accident. Ever since then I had always admired her, after all she had taken care of me since that incident but, when I reached puberty that admiration started to turn to love much to my unaware. By the age of fourteen, everything the mature sixteen year old did gave me a boner, a benign boner but a boner nonetheless.
