Yeah I fixed the problem with the not being able to read it thing...enjoy!
A young boy woke up to the ringing of his alarm clock. He quickly got out of bed, got dressed and went down stairs to eat.
"Why am I in such a hurry any way?" Sasuke thought to himself as he brought out a bowl and made cereal for himself.
"I mean, this is Kakashi sensei I'm talking about!" he mumbled. "He's always late. He took a spoon full of cereal and left the table. Sasuke Uchiha, one of the many ninja genin in his village. He has to train to become a higher rank of ninja, a chounin, just like his sensei, Kakashi Hatake. Well maybe not just like his sensei, Kakashi has a tendency to, goof of at the wrong times. Although he is a full-fledged ninja, he still has some loose bolts in his system. Kakashi Hatake is the leader or sensei of Team 7. Sakura and Naruto are the two other ninja in Team 7. Sakura Haruno, she has short pink hair and has an unhealthy addiction to Sasuke, or at least that's Sasuke's way of putting it. Naruto Uzamaki, he is known for his, impatiens, arrogance, and the demon sealed inside of him.
Sasuke walked to the fridge and grabbed a water bottle.
"I don't feel like having that much breakfast." He said. He took a gulp and headed out the door. The brisk morning air made Sasuke shiver a little. It was mid-fall; he should have brought a jacket! He made his way to the nearby stop sign and paused. He always stopped here, he didn't know why, he just did. He looked at his watch.
"9:15, such a cold morning." Sasuke looked beyond the stop sign to see the bright colorful trees ruffling in the fall wind. Every single leaf seemed to be a different color, different shades and shapes. They all flew off in different directions as well. He looked beyond the flock of trees to see the horizon. The sun was barley up; it was just sitting there, almost as if it wasn't quite awake yet, just like Sasuke. It may not have been up bright and shinning in the sky, but it was on the horizon, sending rays of many colors into the sky and at the same time giving off a warm glow and it was just as beautiful.
Sasuke had to admit. He knew why he would always pause there. It was because of the surrounding heat. The amazing scenery, like a painting come to life. It was because of the feeling he got when he looked at the horizon. The aurora, the warmth, and the calm environment all so captivating that Sasuke just had to stop and enjoy it all even for just a moment. The pleasure was over when a brutal gust of wind broke his train of thought.
"I should probably get going now." He sighed. He passed by the stop sign and made his way toward the dirt path he always took to the training grounds.
"Hi Sasuke, how are you!" Sakura smiled.
"…" Sasuke didn't reply as he walked over to a near by tree to ignore Sakura, like he usually did. Sakura formed a frown.
"Why do you always have to be so quiet, it's like you don't want to talk to me?" She mumbled. Sasuke smirked, she nailed it!
"HIIII SAKURA!!" Naruto shouted happily.
"Oh, it's you, why are you here?" Sakura rolled her eyes.
"Awe, come on sakura don't be like that! You know this team isn't complete without you, me, and-"
"Sasuke!" Sakura blushed eyeing Sasuke from the side of the tree.
"Nooooooo!" Naruto grumbled. "Kakashi sensei!! DUH!" he crossed his arms and leaned against the same tree and glared at Sasuke.
"We would do just fine without Sasuke! Right sakura…sakura?" he could hear monster like breathing behind him.
"TAKE-THAT-BACK!!" she punched Naruto's head so hard he was bruised
. "Owww, sorry, jeeze…" he rubbed his head. Naruto slumped down so that he was sitting in between Sasuke and sakura.
"So, how late do you think Kakashi will be this time?" Naruto asked lazily.
"I don't know, maybe 40 minuets." Sakura guessed. A few hours went by and it started getting into the after noon. Sakura and Naruto had fallen into a deep asleep under the tree while Sasuke stayed awake and waited for Kakashi to show up.
The sun's ray painted over the training grounds. The large tree had formed a shadow around the three teens keeping them safe from the blinding light. Sasuke slowly opened his eyes. He somehow dozed off. He glanced at his watch.
"11:30, Kakashi, where are you?" Sasuke mumbled. He stared at the rising sun and felt tired again. He looked at Naruto whose head was rested on his shoulder.
"Naruto." Sasuke smiled as he pushed him off his shoulder. It slowly fell on Sakura's. "This is useless. Naruto tell Kakashi I left because he was late, and he try being early next time." Sasuke rose up and left leaving Naruto and Sakura.
"Hey guys, sorry I'm late!" Kakashi finally appeared. "Guys?" he nudged Naruto a little.
"Huh, what, dillyhoo, donsnargit?" he blabbered on like someone who has never herd of the alphabet.
"Naruto, stop! Tell me where Sasuke is, we can't start training without out him." Kakashi asked.
"Oh yes, he said, uh?" Naruto thought back to when he was asleep, he had heard Sasuke say something to him.
"What was it that he said?" Naruto asked himself.
"I think he said like, he left because he was hungry, and you should try ramen next time!" Naruto lightly nodded his head in approval.
"Hmmm! I'll, keep that in mind Naruto." Kakashi gave a smile. The boy wasn't paying much attention to what he was saying. His eyes lazily started to flutter closed.
"Naruto you have to wake up." Kakashi frowned feeling sort of motherly. He lightly smacked Naruto's cheek. Naruto scrunched up his face in anger and made a child like grumbled of what sounded like "Make me" or just a random mumble of words. He smacked his face a bit harder.
"S-s-stop, stop it, I'll wake up sto…." Naruto's mouth hung open letting a soft snore escape him as he drifted off to sleep once more. Kakashi laughed quietly to himself.
Sakura sat up right and wiped away her sleepy eyes. The afternoon light was blinding. She squinted her eyes at the sky.
"Ah, your awake!" Kakashi smiled moving his attention away from Naruto, who to him was acting sort of baby-ish. He personally thought it was quit entertaining.
"Huh, uh ya, where is Sasuke??" she looked around the tree, then did it again.
"Where is he?" She looked to her side to see a sleeping blonde. NICE TRY NARUTO BUT I KNOW YOU HAD SOMETHING TO DO WITH THIS. She thought to herself. She grabbed Naruto's shirt so that their noses were barley touching.
"Naruto, WHERE IS Sasuke! WHAT DID YOU DO TO MAKE HIM LEAVE??" she growled at him.
"I did nothing, I didn't see him leave, honest. So could you uhm-?" he cried out sleepily. "Garr… Fine!" she let go of his collar.
Naruto firmly found himself standing on his feet again. He wobbled a little and fell back to find himself in warm, soft arms.
"Kakashi…" He looked up and saw a sunny face hovering over his. " I think I know what might wake you up!" a grin formed under his mask. Naruto's face brightened up.
"You don't mean…" Naruto was grinning ear to ear at the thought of what Kakashi was talking about.
"Yup! I mean it, and we can go right know!" He smiled down at Naruto, still tightly held in his arms. Naruto jumped out of his grasp causing his sensei to stumble back.
"YYAAAAAAAHOOOOOOO!! THIS IS AWSOME!" he leaped everywhere.
" I know, let's start training right know!" Kakashi laughed. Sakura fell over. Naruto stopped in mid-air.
"Wait, you mean you weren't talking about-"
"I'm just kidding. I'll take you right know. You too sakura, my treat!"
"That would be great!" sakura smiled not knowing what the heck they were talking about. She had an idea though. Naruto jumped for his sensei in happiness!
"Thank you Thank you Thank you Thank you Thank you Thank you Thank you Thank,"
"Alright, alright, your welcome! We should really get going now."
"Hmmm, right!" Naruto skipped leading the way.
"We're here we're here!!" Naruto chanted wildly! Sakura looked at the sign: Ichiraku Ramen Shop, Now hiring.
"I should have known…" sakura looked off at something else feeling bored.
"O.k. I'll have the deluxe ramen and add some shrimp, chicken, pork, eggs, oooohhh, extra pork and uhm, I want the Raman that you would give in the combo value meal, but I don't want it chicken flavord, that flavor is nasty, HA, I almost forgot, I would like to have the big shrimp that floats in the soup, not the medium sized ones that bob up and down every time the soup shakes, oh and some of the ones that look really pink, you know the ones that sink to the bottom when you touch them, the small-ish ones, but not the bite sized ones, those ones have like NO flavor, and also they are so small! When I tried it I almost chocked on three shrimps, I almost died, and of course 4 chopsticks, because whenever I use the first two, I eat so fast I break them in two, so then I use the second pair. To drink, I'd like some milk-wait no, bad combination, EW, ramen and milk, for lunch, sound like a good breakfast but I think I'll just have some water,"
"NO NO, WE HAVE WATER, WE HAVE BOTTLED WATER, WE CAN PROVIED OUR SELVES WITH WATER, TAKE THE WATER OFF THE LIST PLEASE!" Kakashi desperately pleaded the baffled man at the counter.
"Uhhm o.k, will that be all sir?" he asked.
"What's my total so far?" Kakashi asked. 25.99.
"Sakura, do want anything, no. O.k., I 'll just have my water so uhm, that will be all." He shakily replied as he received his receipt and the large box of ramen that Naruto was drooling over.
"Give it to me! Give it to me now!! Please I need it NOWWWW!" Naruto clanged onto Kakashi and tried to reach for the ramen licking at the box trying to taste the little strand of ramen on Kakashi's hand that escaped from the box.
"N-Naruto, I, stop that. I promise you, you'll get your ramen." He ignored Naruto's mouth that was trying to eat kakashi's hand off of his arm. This is what iruka goes through. Wow, how does he do it? He felt Naruto lap up the last peaces of ramen on his hand like a starving cat. Naruto practically purred in kakashi's hand.
"Naruto, would you stop that." kakashi's hands became slippery because of Naruto's saliva coated all over it and the box went plummeting to the ground.
"My ramen!" Naruto shouted.
"My money!" Kakashi yelled. Kakashi and Naruto dropped down to the ground and both retrieved the precious box. The top flapped open and the top layer of ramen splashed over Kakashi's upper face, while some got on Naruto's left hand. Kakashi quickly shut the top and held it up high so Naruto couldn't reach it.
"Because of that, no ramen until we get back!" he frowned.
"Naruto?" he was expecting to hear a moan of disappointment. But instead he heard the exact opposite.
"Mmmmm." Naruto smiled licking at his fingers and in between them making sure he was a little satisfied. Kakashi looked at Sakura to make sure she didn't see Kakashi practically turn tomato red. Kakashi couldn't help but smile at the sight of Naruto licking his pinkie like a kid who had finished eating, or didn't know how to at that.
"Naruto," Kakashi chuckled. Naruto moved his attention away from his pinkie and to Kakashi. He slowly pulled his slimy mouth away from the wet pinkie.
"What?" he asked as licking his mouth of the ramen. Kakashi watched closely as Naruto tongue moved all around his moist lips, and then slowly made it's way to his index finger. As if he just loved that hand of his. Like it had an everlasting flavor of ramen. What, Naruto's mouth was moving, had he been so focused on his mouth, that he had not been paying attention. Kakashi blushed. He should stop staring. Kakashi moved his eyes to meet Naruto's, which looked impatient. Had he asked him something?
"Oh, I'm sorry what?" Naruto let out a growl.
"I said stop staring at me like that, it's weird..." Naruto mumbled. "What ever, lets just go eat."
They were under the big tree they woke up under earlier that after noon. They were just finishing up when Naruto finished his food and accidentally spilt some rammed on him.
"Oh, here have some napkins." Sakura gave him some. He dabbed at his pants not noticing that his hands were drenched.
"Do you need some more?" sakura asked.
"No thanks." He gave them back. He brought his right hand to his mouth. Kakashi quickly darted his eyes to Naruto's mouth again. His index finger was slipping along the part between his lips until finally he stuffed two or three fingers in his mouth. Letting them hang before he stopped the dripping of ramen. He then started licking his fingers like before.
He stopped. Kakashi frowned a little. It was amusing to see how Naruto cleaned his hand regularly. The way it just happened immediately his hands got wet. Kakashi looked up to see Naruto's mouth move again.
"Uhh, what did, you say- "I said what do you want?"
"What are you talking about?" he sat up again realizing he was hunched over just so he could get a good look at Naruto.
"I mean you keep staring, what do you want??" he mumbled putting his left index finger in his ramen stained mouth.
"I want to know, why you do that." He asked.
"Hoo Hut?" Naruto's "Do what?" question came out muffled as he had three fingers switching off with his mouth.
"That. Licking your fingers anytime you have the chance to! It's funny, and you look like a little child." He laughed.
"Hey, you probably used to do that when you were a kid! And I'm not childish!!" Kakashi stopped. No, he's never done that, ever. He didn't act like much of a child at Naruto's age. In fact he started taking responsibility for his actions at an early age. That didn't include odd ones like licking his pinkie finger after meals.
"Are you going to finish that?" he pointed.
"Unfortunately, no, I think I asked for to much shrimp…" he cried out.
"Oh, wait!!" he placed his whole hand inside the box and brought out a huge piece.
"But the shrimp does taste good!" Naruto gobbled it down.
Naruto was about to take his index finger in when Kakashi asked him an odd question.
"How, how does it, taste…" he asked. Naruto looked at his finger then at Kakashi.
"It tastes like whatever it was you were eating but different. Sort of, well, it's hard to explain really it more of a do not say thing. Know what I mean." Naruto smiled as Kakashi smiled back. No…. He put his finger in Naruto's soup and swirled it around then brought it out. He brought it to his mask. He took his other hand and gently started to pull on his mask. Sakura and Naruto's face glued to him. Kakashi stopped immediately."Uhh, sakura, would you find a trash can and throw this away?" he asked."Fine..." she skipped up and left. Kakashi looked at Naruto who was about to take in his index finger. It was just below his top lip as it parted and allowed his finger through.
"Wait!" Naruto pulled it out before it even touched anything. Kakashi wanted to ask him a silly question. But he just had to know how doing something as strange as that was satisfying at all.
"M-m-may, May I…" he looked away a moment then looked back.
"May I…" Kakashi stumbled over his words.
"I, I mean can I um, try?" He asked with a rather serious expression on his face. Naruto blinked twice then simply stuck out his hand to him.
"I guess… go ahead??" Naruto offered. Kakashi was confused, did he think that he wanted to lick Naruto's finger. He was trying to ask him so he could lick his own finger but he guessed that he worded his question wrong. Suddenly his thoughts came to a halt as he felt a light tug on his mask reviling a bright pink nose. Naruto continued to pull down the rest of his mask to show his whole face.
"Naruto, I didn't mean that I wanted to do that to your finger, I meant," Naruto shoved his finger in his mouth. Naruto shivered a little feeling sort of, well actually, very awkward. Kakashi froze not knowing what to do. Why did Naruto do that?? A muffled noise came from Kakashi. But Naruto didn't hear him. Kakashi's tongue quickly licked his finger. Naruto creaked his eye open to see a red-faced chounin. Kakashi finally came back to his senses. He had enough of this silliness. Kakashi let out a sort of choked sound escape his throat. Naruto giggled silly.
"That tickles..." he smiled. Naruto wiggled his finger a little, making Kakashi suddenly bight down on his finger. Naruto stopped laughing and looked down at Kakashi. Naruto pulled out his finger. Kakashi let loud a load gasp for air.
"Are you trying to bight my finger off?" Naruto winced at a possible finger loss. Naruto looked at Kakashi who had quickly put his mask back on. Naruto leaned in and licked the side of kakashi's face gently. Naruto was slurping the single noodle stuck to kakashi's face from earlier. Naruto licked that spot until he felt like the ramen stain was all gone. It tickled Kakashi and his face heated up.
"N-Naruto, stop that!" Kakashi struggled to keep his voice steady and strong. It hardly ever was. He pulled his face away from Kakashi's. Naruto laughed as he sucked on his index finger. He was smiling at Kakashi happily, like a baby who had said his first words. He continued to lick the finger that Kakashi did, thus darkening his face. Naruto giggled childishly at Kakashi.
"What are you laughing at?" Kakashi was flustered. He had a butterfly crashing on the walls of his stomach.
"Naruto, you are very odd you know?" Kakashi smiled. Naruto roared with laughter. He didn't know what to say. He just laughed along with Naruto, who seemed kind of loopy. Kakashi new Naruto isn't supposed to have too much ramen at once. It tends to get him, twisted up, is what Iruka said.
"You're a funny one!" he smiled. Naruto let out a muffled laugh as he stood there with his finger in his mouth."
