Author's Note: Hi everyone! Haha, I was smiling and laughing when I kept seeing people following the old story when I posted that I will be making an entire new one. Anyways! As you can see I did take down the previous chapters of "The Black Dress" and now I'll be giving it a more modern mature approach. Trying to stick to some events that did happen in the old version, I did do some MAJOR changes to this storyline. I hope you all enjoy it and if you don't, I'm sorry :( If you have any kind words to say, please feel free to message me :) Without further or due…I present you the newest but still somewhat old story!
Disclaimer: I don't own the characters of Naruto nor the show.

The Black Dress
Seductive is what she can be.
Hair sprawled over the pillows that she rests her head upon, the natural beauty let a yawn escape her soft plump lips. As morning approached, so did the beginning of her day. Throwing the covers off her body, she let the warmth leave her body and allowed the cold to touch it. Shivering once the covers were off, she sprang out of bed. She then approached her bathroom, along the way she grabs her robe. Turning the shower on, she slips out of her night clothes and steps into the shower. Letting the warm water run down her curves, she threw her head back letting her hair soak up as much water it could. She reaches for the body soap and scrubs it all over herself. Starting from her neck and arms, she then scrubs her breasts, down her naval and onwards. Letting a sigh of relief come out of feeling refreshed, she then does a final rinse. Hands running over her breasts, making her nipples become harder each time, moving her hands up and down her butt, she makes sure the soap is completely rinsed off. Finally time to come out of the shower, she turns off the shower and dries herself off. Stepping out of the shower, she approaches the counter where she squirts body lotion on her arms, legs, tummy, breasts, and butt then rubs it into her skin.
After doing the typical shower routine, she slips into her undergarments and robe and walks back out into her room. She then sits down at her make-up table, plugging in her hairdryer. While drying her hair, she takes her brush and smooth out any knots. Once her hair was back to normal, she places the hairdryer down onto the table and gets up. She walks over to her closet and grabs a sundress. Taking off the robe, she slips into the sundress and places her feet into a pair of heels. She glances over at her full body mirror and does a quick head to toe check before grabbing her purse and keys to head out.
Upon exiting the house, she checks the mailbox to see if anything arrived. Finding just junk, she leaves it in there until she comes home. Hopping into her car, she backs out her drive way and sets off towards her destination.
Along the way, she made a stop at the flower shop to visit one of her closest friends who prepared the flowers that she ordered. She enters the store and is tackled by the blonde headed friend.
"Sakura, how are you?" her blonde friend was shoved off by Sakura.
"I'm fine Ino, how are you and your parents?" The two girls made their way over to the counter where Ino was searching for Sakura's order.
"We are doing just fine. The shop has been pretty busy lately these days. You know, I've been meaning to ask you, do you think that you could be able to-"
"If I could help around the store? Ino, are you that lazy that you need to make your friend do your job?" Sakura raised her eyebrow at her friend. Ino turns around with Sakura's flowers and places it onto the counter.
"No…well maybe a little but that's not what I wanted to ask." Sakura still had her eyebrow raised giving Ino the okay sign to ask.
"I was wondering if you were able to come over sometime in the afternoon. I'm going to invite the other girls as well." Sakura was poking at the wrap that the flowers were in.
"I think I'll be able to make it." Sakura grabbed the flowers off the counted, preparing to leave.
"Great! I'll go call up the other girls. So see you later?" Ino smiled.
"Yeah, yeah Ino. If anything comes up, I'll call you to let you know." Sakura exited the store and placed the flowers into the back seat gently.
"That's not nice Sakura! If anything comes up, cancel that stuff!" Sakura heard her loud mouthed friend shout from inside the store. She shook her head and hopped into her car. Making sure the way was clear, she backed out and was on her way to her destination.
Arriving at the hospital, Sakura gently took out the flowers from the back seat and approached the hospital doors. The smell of latex gloves and medicine shot up into Sakura's nose. Although she works at a hospital, she scrunches up her face for a bit from the scent. Approaching the elevators she spots one her old high school friends waiting there. The man looks to his left and spots the pink headed beauty and just stares. Among the loudness in the hospital with patients moaning for help, phones ringing and the intercom always paging for someone, you could still hear Sakura's heels hitting against the floor as she makes her way over to the elevator and the young fellow. She glanced up at him to find him staring at her still but when he noticed she was looking at him he quickly turned his head the other way and shoved his hands into his pockets. Sakura giggled. "How are you, Naruto?" The blonde haired male turned his head to face her again and had a big cheerful smile on his face. To Sakura it was refreshing to see such a smile since all she's been seeing lately are sad and lonely expressions.
"Not bad Sakura. Haven't seen you in a while, how have you been? Still working at the hospital?"
"I'm good and you bet I still do! Haven't been to work lately, I mostly come in when there are major operations that need to be done. What brings you here today?" she raises her eyebrow at her blonde headed friend.
"That's good. Work has been stressful this month but we are doing our best. I'm just visiting Kiba, he got himself hurt…again, haha." The elevator finally arrived at the first floor. Letting those who were already in the elevator get off first, the two friends stepped in and both reached to press the same number. "Who are you visiting? It must be someone special if you brought flowers." Naruto winked at Sakura causing her to blush a bit.
"Ah Naruto, you are still childish. I'm also visiting Kiba. I heard he got admitted into the hospital yesterday, so I decided to order some flowers for him."
"Ah I see. Do you two still talk?" Sakura shook her head. Silence then took place between the two. Sakura let her eyes wander; looking everywhere in the elevator then she finally parted her lips.
"Hey Naruto. I've been meaning to ask you…how is-"
"Sasuke?" Sakura nodded. "He's doing well too. Like I said, the business is making us stressed out but we are doing the best we can. So you two don't speak at all…it's a shame, really…the separation of you two kind of caused a rift between the gang." "Why did that idiot have to bring up a slightly painful memory" thought Sakura as she looked at the ground. Her hands clenched the stems of the flowers.
"Oh is that so? You guys shouldn't have let our relationship affect you guys" Sakura quietly said. The elevator stopped and the two got off. Silence once again took over.
"Yeah well the rest of us decided it was best that we parted ways since it just wouldn't be the same if you two weren't on good terms." The two walked down the quiet hall.
"You guys don't need both of us there for all you guys to hang out."
"Yeah I guess you're right. Enough of this talk, let's talk about something fun! What are you doing tonight?"
"I'm not quite sure yet. Knowing Ino, she'll have something already planned and force the girls and me to go along with it." Naruto laughed.
"It's okay Sakura, maybe some other time?" Sakura nodded her head. Both of them stopped in front of a door that was at the end of the hallway. 1302 it read. Sakura raised her hand to knock but Naruto just barged into the room. "KIBA! How are you my dear friend? I brought a friend along." Sakura stood at the doorway, debating whether she should go in or not. She hasn't seen Kiba since graduation day and even though he has been admitted into the hospital on several accounts she doesn't know why she decided to visit him this time. She took a deep breath and stepped into the room, closing the door behind her.
"Sakura? Haha I can't believe it's really you! I must be seeing things! You know, every time I came to the hospital I always asked to have you ask my doctor." Sakura laughed at what Kiba said.
"Yeah I know, I've gotten your request but they weren't that serious that I needed to come and look after your little cuts."
"Ouch. Don't want to see an old friend? I see how it is!" Kiba huffed and crossed his arms. Sakura rolled her eyes and took the flowers out of its wrapping and placed them into the vase. "Aww you brought me flowers." Kiba grabbed Sakura's arm and pulled her on top of him. He moved his face closer to hers. Her heart started to pound fast and could feel her cheeks getting hot. She was all flustered by just a little face movement.
"Kiba, what do you think you are doing?!" she tried to get his arm off her but it wouldn't budge. "Just great!"
"What! I'm just playing around with you! Haha" Kiba then releases her and she got off the bed, pulling her dress down.
"Kiba, what the hell did you even do to get yourself back into the hospital this time? Judging by your physical appearance, you don't look like you needed to stay overnight."
"Yeah Kiba, Sasuke is going to be pissed at you knowing it wasn't anything serious."
"Wait…so both of you guys work for Sasuke?" Sakura curiously asked.
"Not work for him, but we are partners."
"Ah I see. But yes Kiba, what is it that you got done to yourself?"
"I just got a few deep cuts that needed stitching up. Yeah I didn't need to stay over but I didn't feel like driving back home so they allowed me to stay here overnight."
"They?" Sakura raised her eyebrow. Kiba gulped.
"Umm…oh you know, the doctors allowed me to stay overnight."
"Kiba…don't tell me it was those two trainee nurses…again."
"Aww come on Sakura! They told me that you scolded them again."
"Just doing my job Kiba." Sakura glanced down at her watch realizing it was time for her daily dosage of a nice latte. "Sorry to leave early you two, but there is a latte calling my name and I haven't eaten nor drank anything yet. How about I treat you guys to a drink one day?" both of the guys nodded their head so fast. After saying their goodbyes, Sakura headed out the door.
Pulling into the parking lot at her favorite café, she parks her car and gets out. Entering the café, she takes her sunglasses off and walks over to the counter to order where she was greeted with a smile by the worker, "Hi, what can I get for you?"
Sakura returns the smile, "Hello, may I get a medium latte macchiato and a plain muffin." Already knowing the cost of her order, Sakura pulls out a bill and hands it to the worker. Telling them to just keep the change, she moves over to the waiting away.
'I'm a bad girl. Yes, I'm that kind of girl.'
Sakura reaches into her purse and grabs her phone to see who is calling her. Rolling her eyes at who it is, she presses talk anyways. "Hello Ino."
"Sakura Haruno! Is it possible for you to come over right now?"
"Hold on a minute, Ino" Sakura grabs her drink and muffin and goes and finds a table to sit at. Placing her purchase down onto the table and sitting, she resumed her conversation.
"Not right now Ino, right now I'm busy. I'll come over soon. Besides there are some stuff I need to tell you girls…about these guys that I just saw."
"Seeing guys, huh?" Sakura heard a husky voice from behind her. She turns around to find a man whom she hasn't seen since graduation.
"Ino, I'll call you back…I seem to have attracted a visitor…"
"What the hell are you?! Some kind of man magnet?!"
"Yeah" Sakura chuckled and hanged up. Sakura pushed the other chair out with her foot and glanced up at the man who was walking around to the chair. "Of all people, it has to be him."
"Surprised to see me Sakura?" Sakura glared at the man before her.
"I never expected to see you, of all people, here." Sakura took a sip of her drink but still had her eyes on the man. No matter how damn fine he looked, Sakura knew she shouldn't do anything with him.
"What, don't think I like cafes? Am I too high up to like them?" Sakura chuckled at what he just said. "To high up? He surely lost some brain cells"
"Perhaps. I'm just surprised that you aren't around people in your higher society. What? Don't tell me you had a change of heart all of a sudden."
The man chuckled at Sakura's response, "You haven't changed. I just simply came to get a drink. Am I not allowed to drink?"
"I prefer you got dehydrated and rot" Sakura quickly covered her mouth. Her thoughts slipped out of her mouth.
"Who would have known that Sakura Haruno would have said such a thing….maybe you have changed after all. What is it that you do for a living? Work at a retail store? A café?"
"You really think I'm not capable of working in a higher job? Pfft, you really need to get a reality check, who was it that was smarter than you and probably still is…oh yeah, me. I'm a doctor if you must know and my shift is approaching soon and need to be on my way." She stood up and placed her muffin in front of him, "Here, eat a muffin. I'm sure you don't get served those things when you eat fancy food. Hope to see you again Sasuke…not." And Sakura walked out, leaving the man at the table staring at the muffin before him.
"Seems like she has developed an attitude over the years" his train of thoughts were cut off as his phone rang. Answering it without looking at who was calling, a woman's voice was on the other line.
"Hello, would you be interested in-" he hanged up on the advertiser. Sasuke broke a piece off from the muffin and chewed it. Having the last thing she said to him on his mind, the man sighed. "Hope to see you again…not. Oh I have a feeling we'll be seeing more of each other Sakura. You better be prepared for what is coming your way" the man folded up the bag that the muffin was in and left the café.
Truthfully, Sakura didn't have a shift today. Heck she was basically on vacation and didn't have to come into work unless there were crucial operations that had to be done. She just wanted to escape that hard to breathe situation she was just in. The man that she was once speaking to was her high school sweetheart but during their last year of high school everything was not too sweet anymore. Fights were constantly happening, yelling at one another and not speaking to each other…not sweet at one bit. Sakura let out frustrated sigh and changed her course of direction. If it was anyone else that she used to hang out with from the guy side of the gang that appeared in front of her, she wouldn't be confused and frustrated, but him. Of all people he had to show up at her favorite morning relaxation spot. She pushed the call button in her call, dialing up her one and only troublemaker best friend.
"Sakura! So who was the visitor that came?"
"Ino, you aren't going to believe who it is…I'm on my way over"
"The door is open." The girls ended the call. "Just when my life was going great this has to happen" thought the hot headed pink beauty as she accelerated way over the speed limit. Swerving in and out of lanes, the reckless female had cars honking at her which she just ignored.
After finally reaching her friend's house, Sakura just walked into the home like it was hers. Well it kind of was like hers…on her drunken nights. Walking up the stairs, she headed straight to her friends room to find the girls already there. "So who is it?!" Ino shouted.
"Sasuke Uchiha…" Sakura slumped down onto the ground and just stared off into space. She zoned out the girls who were freaking out. "You know…Sasuke did look so damn fine today. Maybe I was a little mean to him. No way, that idiot deserved the entire attitude he got" "Girl, you really should show him what he is missing!"as Sakura came back to reality, she found the girls staring at her.
"Earth to Sakura! Hello?!" Ino shouted right in front of Sakura's face. Sakura shoved Ino out of the way and stood up.
"Do you have to shout?!"
"Well, you did zone out and we kept trying to get your attention! Listen up…I think tonight we should go to this club that just opened up a few days ago." Ino looked around the room to find the girls talking among themselves. "You're all mean! Never listening to me! Come on! Please, we haven't gone out in such a long time!" Ino gave everyone the puppy dog eyes. The rest of the girls rolled their eyes at their friend's desperate pled of wanting to go out.
"Fine pig, we'll go out-"
"But Sakura, we don't even have anything to wear" interrupted Hinata. Temari and Tenten nodded their head in agreement to what Hinata said.
"I guess you have a point the-" Sakura's eye twitched when she was interrupted again.
"Don't you fear ladies; I just went shopping recently and spotted some dresses that I thought you all would like." Ino went searching through her closest and pulled out the dresses. She handed Hinata a dark purple sweetheart dress, Temari a red dress that was short in the front and long in the back, Tenten a midnight blue dress that exposed one shoulder and Sakura was handed a black dress that had her friends gawking at the dress.
"What? It's just a dress." Sakura held up the dress in front of her. The dress had a low v cut and an exposed back design.
"It's not any dress Sakura. I think this is the dress that will show Sasuke what a fool he was for leaving you."
"But we are going to a club…why would Sasuke be there?" The girls stared at Ino.
"Well, I heard from Shikamaru that the guys, especially Sasuke, were planning on heading over to that club tonight."
"You had this all planned out, didn't you?" Temari spoke. Ino nodded her head. Sakura froze. "Stop being afraid! This is your time to shine! Make that boy realize what he lost and can't have again!" "Maybe I should actually listen to myself and make him jealous"
"Sakura, stop zoning out" Tenten waved her hand in front of her friend's face. "How about we not worry about the guys being there, go in, have a good damn time, take some shots, have a few coolers and beers, and come home and crash."
"I like the way you think Tenten. All for getting drunk, raise your hand" everyone did. "All for having a good fucking time, raise your hand!" the girls did what she asked for. "All for not caring about stupid dumbass boys, may you please raise your hand!" the girls all laughed and raised their hand once again. "Now that's settled, let's order some pizza and start the pre-drinking!" Ino started to blast music to get the party vibe going.
Sneak Peak of Next Chapter:
"Hello Sakura" the male's husky voice sent shivers down the female's back. It also gave her Goosebumps all over as well. The male then placed his hands onto her hips with her back against him. The male then proceeded to move his lips onto Sakura's neck, breathing warm air onto it. He soft spoke, "No need to get worked up over this little action. I haven't even done my special move and you are already worked up." The female parted her soft plump lips to speak but no words could come out. "My, already speechless, are we?" the male dragged his lips on up and down her neck, leaving her feeling weak in the knees. His hands gently moved up and down her thighs, making her throw her head back onto his shoulder. "That's what I want to see Sakura." Her neck was exposed properly now and the male took the opportunity to leave a hickey. Sakura gripped the back of the male's hair. Soon the male's grip on her let go and Sakura released his hair. She then turned around quickly to find no one there. Looking frantically from left to right, she spotted couples dancing and no one was standing on the dance floor by themselves besides her. Little did she know, her mysterious man was looking right at her with a smirk on his face.
Author's Note: Ahh, done the new first chapter! I know it's a MAJOR change of what I previously wrote. As you can see I majorly cut down on the inner and outer communicating with one another, I felt like I got people annoyed with that :( The next chapter should be up within a day or so. I hope you all have a great night and I shall talk to you soon :)
Feel free to leave a message :)
Thank you!
