It was a bright and sunny day in Konoha as Uchiha Sasuke stood outside of his annoying female teammate's home. A light breeze ruffled his ebony colored locks that took the form of a duck's behind as he raised a pale hand to knock on the front door.
When no one answered the door, Sasuke figured that perhaps his teammate had slept in once again so he stooped down to retrieve a spare key that Sakura left for her teammates from beneath the welcoming matt. After retrieving the key, Sasuke unlocked the door and replaced the key beneath the atrociously bright yellow welcoming matt and gripped the golden door knob preparing to turn it.
A large hand on his shoulder stopped his movements. "I couldn't find Naruto. Maybe he's in here too." Kakashi's lazy voice filtered in from behind the young Uchiha.
For reasons unknown to Sasuke, his beautiful black eyes narrowed slightly at the thought of his two teammates in this house together and alone and on his birthday no less.
"Well, let's go see what they're up to; shall we?" Kakashi asked smiling knowingly at Sasuke's reaction.
Sasuke snapped out of his reverie and turned the door knob before stepping into the rather spacious house that Sakura lived in alone.
Kakashi followed Sasuke and closed the door behind him with a gentle click.
The duo were about to head for Sakura's bedroom when a clattering noise in the kitchen stopped them. Together, they looked to their left at the large wooden door across the room that led into the kitchen.
"Hey! Naruto! Not so rough! You're going to break it. It's not like you do this all the time!" Sakura's annoyed voice filtered out to Sasuke and Kakashi.
"Mou, Sakura-Chan! It's too tight! I have to be rough with it for the white stuff to come out!" Naruto's whiny voice could be heard responding back.
Sasuke and Kakashi looked at each other; both were thinking the same thing. With a nod to the other; they quickly approached the door to the kitchen and stood with their ears pressed against it to better hear what was happening in the kitchen.
"Pssh! I bet Sasuke-Kun could it to come out without being rough." Sakura challenged.
Sasuke's and Kakashi's eyes both widened in surprise as Sasuke's face turned green.
Naruto snorted and Kakashi and Sasuke heard him grunt "Che, I bet Sasuke's never done this before."
Sakura sighed, "you're right. I'm sure he hasn't. We should ask him to join us next time." She added in a cheey voice "It would be fun with him."
Sasuke choked on the air at that statement.
Naruto grunted again "Sakura-Chan, that was mean." Sasuke and Kakashi could just picture Naruto pouting before he gave a couple of more grunts.
Kakashi pressed his ear tighter to the door as Sasuke nearly broke into spasms beside him.
Sakura groaned, "quit complaining and hurry up will you? Sasuke-kun should be here soon and I want to surprise him."
Sasuke twitched slightly, oh he was surprised alright.
Naruto groaned and grunted "I-it's stuck. I can't get it out!" He panted as though he was making an effort.
"Hold still; I'll get it out!" Sakura commanded.
Sasuke and Kakashi listened with wide eyes as grunts, groans, and pants came from the kitchen.
"Ahh! It came out!" Naruto sighed in relief.
"Eww, I got some in my mouth" Sakura said in disgust.
Naruto snorted, "I thought you said it tasted good before; remember Sakura-Chan? I wonder if Sasuke will like it."
That was the last straw for Sasuke and Kakashi and they flung the door open to reveal Sakura and Naruto standing in front of a large cake with white and blue icing only most of the icing was covering Sakura and Naruto as well as a majority of the kitchen. Naruto was holding a bent spoon with icing on it.
Sakura licked her icing covered lips and smiled brightly at Sasuke. "Happy Birthday, Sasuke-Kun!"
Sasuke's eyes rolled back in his head as he fainted dead on the floor.
Sakura tilted her head to the right, "eh? What's wrong with Sasuke-Kun, Kakashi-Sensei?" She blinked her large green eyes at Kakashi innocently.
Kakashi laughed while internally relieved, "nothing Sakura; he just has a very over active imagination is all." He then stooped down and picked Sasuke up before throwing him onto his shoulder like a sack of potatoes and getting back up. "I'm sure Sasuke will love the cake. See you two later." He waved before disappearing in a cloud of smoke.
Sakura stared at the spot where Kakashi had left with a pout tugging at her lips, her thin pink eye brows were drawn downward slightly. "I wonder what Kakashi-Sensei meant about Sasuke-Kun having a overactive imagination."
Naruto shrugged and ruffled his already wild golden locks. before walking over to Sakura and turning her to face him. "What I wonder is when are you going to call me kun?" He asked, his bright blue eyes searching Sakura's green eyes imploringly.
Sakura grinned mischievously as she dragged the pointer finger of her right hand down the bridge of Naruto's nose getting some icing on it. "I don't know. Maybe I need some persuasion." She replied coyly as she popped her finger into her mouth and licked the icing off of it.
Naruto pulled Sakura's finger out of her mouth and instead covered her mouth with his own in a heated kiss. "Persuasion sounds like it might be fun." Naruto pulled away, sucking lightly on Sakura's lower lip before he let go and licked his own now icing covered lips. "Mmm… you're right. This stuff does taste good, but it tastes better on you." He picked Sakura up bridal style and grabbed a half full container of icing before exiting the room and heading in the direction of Sakura's bedroom.
Sasuke's half iced cake lay abandoned on the kitchen counter all through the night, because all days should be filled with NaruSaku love, even Sasuke's birthday!
End
Wow… I hope you enjoyed it. Poor Sasuke. Sasuke's imagination may not be so over imaginative after all! Oh well, maybe like Sakura said; Sasuke can join them next time. The spoon was what was stuck and what Sakura told Naruto not to be so rough with. Now I want a cake! Happy Early Valentine's day Heaven and Earth:, The Naruto X Sakura Fan Club!
