Sakura's Feelings

Chapter 1: Not Alone Anymore

Naruto stood there alone as usual, thinking to himself 'im always alone' he was the first one on the bridge waiting for Kakashi. "hey naruto good morning!" Sakura said in a cheerful voice. It was incredibly cold that morning Sakura was shivering but it didnt bother naruto. "here Sakura" Naruto took off that orange jacket he always wore and gave it to Sakura.

"your not cold?"asked Sakura. "you need it more besides, i love this kind of weather" said naruto. Just then sasuke came and was confused as to why sakura was wearing naruto's jacket but was quiet about it as sakura thought to herself 'Naruto really is growing up'. "Naruto" "yes Sakura chan" replied naruto. Then she came up and kissed him on the cheek, Naruto turned red instantly "thank you" said Sakura as she zipped the jacket shut and continued waiting.

Little did they know Kakashi had been watching this whole time as he thought to himself 'this is better than Come Come Paradise' finally he appeared. "are you guys ready for another mission?" everyone gasped in surprise and Sasuke finally spoke "your early for the first time ever..." "well this is an A Rank mission" said Kakashi, and Naruto being excited yelled for joy "alright another one brong it on!"

So all three of them followed Kakashi as he explained the mission "ok so on this misson we are going to the hidden rain village to protect an important document from being stolen while it gets transported" "what just a stupid scroll?" said Naruto "its not just a scroll it contains all of the hidden waterfalls village techniques" "then why does the hidden rain village have it?" asked Sasuke "because the hidden waterfall village was having a festival and since they didnt want it to get stolen they sent to there closest ally which was the hidden rain village but now its over and they want it back and other people want it too" "so we have to protect the scroll from being stolen?" asked Sakura "exactly" replied Kakashi as they entered the village.

It was beautiful, fountains spewing water around almost every corner. the water in the sky made it seem like there was an endless rainbow in the sky as the sun shone. So they went to the palace where the leader Shizuke was "we need to return this scroll to the hidden waterfall village keeping it here is to risky" "and thats why we're here" replied Kakashi as they walked through the door. "ah yes the ninjas i hired from kohona please come in sit sit" said Shizuke as they came in and sat down. "Now tomorrow afternoon we will contact you at the inn your staying at everything is free at the inn so please enjoy your stay id love to and talk more but i have urgent matters to tend to" and with that said Shizuke got up and left "thank you and we will" said Kakashi as the 4 of them got up and left.

Kakashi disappeared saying he'd meet them at the inn later "what a rip off" said Naruto "what do you mean?" asked Sakura who just now realized she still had Naruto's jacket on and she thought to herself 'this jacket is really comfortable' "Shizuke just left us here with nothing to do" said Naruto. Sakura took off his jacket and gave it back to Naruto "thank you naruto but im not cold anymore" "thanks Sakura chan" naruto said as he put his jacket back on. "hey who wants to get some ramen? my treat" Naruto asked "that would be great!" said Sakura "whatever" Sasuke said finally after all that silence. So as they sat at the ramen bar Sakura on one side of Naruto and Sasuke on the other side Naruto thought to himself 'i guess im not alone anymore'

Its late at night and everyone is asleep, well almost everyone as Sasuke was thinking to himself 'aughhhh Naruto kicks in his sleep, Sakura talks in her sleep and i cant sleep! im sleeping on the floor' and so Sasuke took his pillow and slept on the floor that night.

At about 10am everyone awoke to a scream(lets just say naruto shifted during the night) "ahhh Naruto get the hell off me!" said Sakura and she punched him into a wall "ow sakura-chan why'd you do that" Naruto said rubbing his head. "well we're all awake now might as well get ready" said Kakashi as he stood up and got his stuff and went to the bathroom. Sasuke did the same waiting in line(well he is the line so far). "im sorry Naruto but you we're to close"(what sakura apologizing!) "its ok" as he got his towel and toothbrush "im used to getting hit" Naruto said as he lined up behind Sasuke.

A little later they were at the palace it was 1pm as Naruto said "he's late..."(surprisingly not kakashi this time i know it shocked me too). Just then some guy with a backpack walked in the room he looked almost like Tazuna you know bridge builder Zabuza, Haku...etc ring a bell. His name was Yoko Inugawa "sorry im late i got drunk and lost my way" "atleast your not like Kakashi makeing up DUMB excuses" said Naruto.

Some time after introductions they were walking to hidden waterfall village when Kakashi sensed a presence. "everyone get ready" he said and they all jumped in position to protect the Yoko. "theres about 4 of them but they dont seem very skilled being caught so easily" said Kakashi. "then lets take'em down. Hey come on out we know your there" yelled out Naruto. 'what an idiot' thought Sasuke however he wanted to kick their asses too. Just then 4 sound ninjas came at them at one "you two Naruto, Sasuke you can handle these guys" handle them they did. Sasuke got the first one in the barrage of lions then burned the other one with fire ball jutsu. while Naruto used his Naruto rendon or Uzumaki barrage saying his last name in unison then took out the last one with straight up taijutsu lee had taught him and kicked his ass. If kakashi wasnt a ninja he would have got hit with some random, guy but he was a ninja (sigh i wanted him to get hit).

"That was to easy" said Kakashi "well maybe we've gotten stronger!" Naruto yelled. "maybe" said Kakashi with a smile well you cant see the smile so just trust me on this ok. "lets just complete the mission" said Sasuke and so they delivered the scroll and went back to Konoha with another completed mission when "Hey Sakura-chan would you like to get some ramen with me?" Naruto asked. 'should i go with him? if i go home ill be all alone and i dont want to be alone anymore' its been 2 weeks since her parents went on a 1 month mission. "Sure ill go with you Naruto. But its not a date!" she replied as Sasuke and Kakashi stood there shocked.
