A/N: Hey all, um this is going to be my first attempt at a Naruto fic. I am completely in love with the anime and manga so I figure what the hell lets give it a shot. So here I am finally ready to give it my best effort. Please enjoy.

Disclaimer: Nope I don't own Naruto- sighs-. Kishimoto-sama owns him. I'm just borrowing him for awhile.


It was another still, quiet, evening as night took over Konoha. A blond haired male sat up in his bed. His back was against the wall, one arm around his knee. He should be asleep he understands that. But for some reason his body won't comprehend it. The wind blows gently he left his window open once again. The cool breeze doesn't help much when the restless party is shirtless. A sigh escapes him; his blond locks falling over his eyes. He moves to the window so he can close it. He turns when he hears a knock at the door. His cerulean blue eyes open in surprise at who it is.

"Uh…Sakura-chan." He mumbles slightly.

The pink haired medic-nin enters the apartment. She looks to the side for a quick moment avoiding his gaze. All the while he keeps staring at her. He can utter no words as he stares at her in confusion. She suddenly turns to look at him.

"Naruto." She calls his name and runs into his arms.

It was there that they stood in each others embrace. He wanted to freeze this moment in time. He didn't want to let her go. Naruto wished that he could freeze the two of them just like this. He wanted this moment to be burned in his memory.

"Sakura-chan." He whispered.

(End of Dream)


The blond awoke with a start. It had all been a dream. He could remember the dream vividly. Every now and then he would dream of her. It didn't happen often but that wasn't the point. The point was that the pink haired woman seemed to invade his dreams. Why did he still have to have the dreams? Why was she even there to begin with? He turned to his right to see his sleeping girlfriend. Why did he suddenly see a flash a pink? There was clearly a head full of blond hair on top of her head.

"Naruto-kun what's wrong?" he heard.

Naruto looked into her eyes. She held a curious expression in her light aqua colored orbs. He ran a hand through his spiky blond hair.

"Ha." He laughed nervously. "It's nothing Ino-koi." He added.

She knew that he was lying. He had put on that adorable nervous smile of his. Ino put her hand to his face. A slight blush rose to his cheeks.

"You can quit lying to me." She smiled. "If something's wrong you can tell me."

Somehow he doubted that his girlfriend wanted to know what was wrong. She wouldn't want to know about his latest dream. Why would she even want to hear about his dream about Sakura? If there was anything he knew for sure was no girl wanted to hear that her boyfriend was dreaming about someone else. He had to think of something and he needed to do so fast.

"Uh…oh yea I've got to meet with Tsunade baa-chan today. It's a new mission I think."

He felt bad that he couldn't think of something else other than that. And here he thought that you grew wiser with age. So much for that little theory. Ino was now sitting up. Her long blond hair swayed to the side. Naruto couldn't help but smile. He always thought that she looked beautiful in the mornings.

"Okay I won't push. I'll live it alone….for now." She added with a smile.

The blond male breathed a sigh of relief. He looked to see that the sun was completely up. The streets of Konoha would be pretty busy soon.

"It's morning." Ino nearly jumped up. "I need to get ready I promised that I would be at the flower shop today."

Naruto simply nodded and watched as she went to shower. This sort of thing happened often. She would stay the night with him and leave in the mornings. It wasn't like she was a complete stranger in his apartment. She had stayed many nights in their nearly 2 year relationship. She practically lived with him.

"I don't get why she just doesn't move in already." He whispered.

Almost as if on cue Ino's voice was heard from the bathroom.

"Did you say something Naru-kun?" she asked.

"Um…" He paused. "I didn't say anything." A smile crept up on to his face.

She nodded turning her attention back to her shower. She didn't want to push the issue. She wanted Naruto himself to ask her to move in.

"He's so shy sometimes. I'm usually the one making all the moves. But not this time, its time that he stepped up."

Her thoughts were interrupted by a knock at the door.

"Ino-chan how long are you going to be? I have to get ready too."

"Naruto you know it does take time to look this beautiful." She laughed. "Or you can just come in and join me."

"Naughty Ino-chan." He spoke with an amused tone.

As a 19 year old male with raging hormones he'd be a fool not to jump at this opportunity. His gorgeous girlfriend was inviting him into the shower. How could he not accept the offer? He decided to take the gentleman's approach in the end.

"Sorry to disappoint you but we'll both be late if I step in there with you. I'll wait for you to finish."

Ino frowned slightly she knew he had done that on purpose. Slowly she smiled.

"That Naruto he always has to be Mr. Nice guy."


(With Sakura)

Meanwhile a pink haired medic-nin had also found herself in a dream world. Sakura was walking through the streets of Konoha. She had no real goal in particular. It seemed that she was walking for hours. She finally stopped finding herself at the training grounds where team seven once trained. The same area where she and Naruto went up against Kakashi.

"A lot of memories here." she thought.

"Oh Sakura-chan." She heard that all too familiar voice.

"Naruto." She whispered and turned around. She met the familiar grin of Naruto Uzumaki. He stood for a moment and then opened his mouth to say something.

"Sakura are you okay?" He asked.

She found herself lost in those beautiful blue eyes of his. He was definitely much more attractive it didn't take a genius to figure that out. His blond hair longer yet still unruly. Those blue eyes that just seemed to shine effortlessly. He was handsome there was no denying that. And even though he was taller, older, and more mature than before; he still managed to stay himself. He was still Naruto underneath it all.

"Hai." She nodded. "I'm…" She was cut off as he put his hand to her cheek.

"You can tell me if something's wrong."

"No really there's nothing wrong." She tried to convince him.

He shook his head because he really didn't believe her.

"Sakura-chan I…" He leaned over capturing her lips in a soft passionate kiss.

(End of Dream)


She awoke suddenly that dream had felt so real to her. She almost felt his lips on top of hers.

"It was that dream again." She spoke. "It's always that dream."

Sakura sat up in bed. She needed to get ready she had to be at work soon. But she was always a little distracted after that dream. Sometimes she wished that it wasn't a dream. Sometimes she wanted it to be a reality. She of course had to be honest with herself. It wasn't going to happen. She had lost her chance with Naruto. He was with Ino now, a relationship that had been going on for 2 years now. And she knew all to well how loyal the blond was. It wasn't like he would suddenly just leave her.

"We'll I'd better get going and leave those dreams behind." She thought to herself.


Meanwhile Naruto and Ino were walking side by side. He would often walk her to the flower shop.

"Naruto-kun do you want to do something tonight?" She asked her boyfriend.

"Hm?" He thought about it. "Hey how about we go to Ichiraku's for dinner."

He seemed extremely excited. But of course he would be about the mere mention of his favorite food on earth.

"You and your ramen." She teased and put her hand to his spiky head.

Naruto just shot her a smile. He shoved his hands into his pockets then looked up to the sky. It really was a beautiful day. He could think of better things to do with his girlfriend today; only he had to see Tsunade and she was supposed to be at the shop. There would be no time for anything fun, at least not now anyway.

"Why are you so quiet?" She wondered.

Ino didn't want to think too much of it. She knew that something was up though. She was actually starting to become worried. He was hardly ever this quiet.

"Ino-chan I'm fine okay there's nothing to worry about."

She didn't believe him and he knew that. The two blonds came in view of the Yamanaka flower shop.

"Okay well we're here. Have a good day Ino-chan." He smiled and leaned over to kiss her on the cheek. The blond girl suddenly wrapped her arms around his neck. She pressed her lips to his. Naruto did nothing to stop this kiss. He remembered her saying something about showing more public affection. He wrapped his arms around her waist deepening their kiss.

Unknowing to the couple a pink haired kunoichi was standing a few feet away. Her eyes opened wide. She hated having to see Ino kiss Naruto. She of course should be used to this sort of thing by now. Only of course that didn't mean it didn't hurt any less.

"I know that I should be happy for them. But it doesn't feel right having to watch this."
