-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It's Quite The Opposite Of What You Thought
Sakura sat on the edge of the rock face, looking out to the sun. Kakashi had them reviewing chakra control and as usual she was the best out of the three genin in the squad.
Instead of tree climbing the challenge had been made harder so they now had to climb a rock face.
Sasuke and Naruto would have been not far behind her if they had not been so touchy and determined to be the first to reach the top.
It didn't help the fact that they we trying to occupy all the space in the area which they were climbing.
First Naruto began complaining that the area he was climbing was too easy for his standards and that Sasuke was such a slug that he could take over him if he wanted to.
Then Sasuke argued back that Naruto couldn't hope to beat him and that he was only stating the obvious to hide how much of a loser he was.
Kakashi put a hand over his face, he didn't understand these two. 'My my…they work together quite well but when faced with independent training they get like this'
Sakura watched them as they scrambled up the cliff constantly trying to push one another off.
She thought she glimpsed Sasuke deliberately taking Naruto's hand into his own but when she looked again she felt it must have been an illusion.
After looking at Naruto and back at Sasuke she wished that he would at least say something nice to her or look at her in a different light.
He was always with Naruto and sometimes he acted differently when Naruto was around. Come to think of it both of them acted really weirdly as if there was something going on between them.
In the few moments she had to herself she considered their strange actions. 'Naruto knows something about Sasuke-kun and he must be blackmailing him. What could be so important to Sasuke-kun that he wouldn't tell me?'
'What if Sasuke-kun likes someone, and I mean likes, likes' She gasped 'Ino! Argh that horrid Ino-pig she got to him, I bet she got to him!" There were hurried voices erupting over the top of the cliff face.
"Sakura-chan are you ok? What happened?"It was Naruto, he and Sasuke had finally managed their way to the top.
"Huh? Oh nothing… I just remembered I ate dinner and left the oven on over night" she smiled awkwardly. "Sakura?" it was Sasuke. She turned to him truly believing her wish had come true.
"Yes" she dared breathe, what was he going to say? "You don't cook and you ate my ramen toppings again last night" "Oh yeah…I forgot"
Kakashi had walked over when he had heard Sakura gasp, his book still clasped in his right hand. "So Sakura-chan what happened?" asked Naruto
"Ooh story time, I like stories" Kakashi sat on the rock behind them, they all turned. "I'm sorry please carry on, it's not like we have anymore training to fit in before it gets dark"
"Sorry sensei, it was nothing" Kakashi nodded accepting her apology, in a way he felt a bit down hearted because he really wanted to hear a story.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In order to find out if Sasuke likes, likes Ino, Sakura would have to get the information out of Naruto.
"Naruto! Hey over here!" she was standing outside the dumpling shop that night and had spotted Naruto heading towards the ramen shop.
"Hi Sakura-chan" "Listen Naruto, erm… let's get some dumplings, you know just me and you"
Naruto felt strange, Sakura was asking him out, was she finally taking an interest in him. Sakura had pulled him into a seat by the window.
"Sakura-chan this is unexpected but I'm meeting someone, I'd love to stay but..." She put a hand on his shoulder.
"Look Naruto, I know about you and Sasuke-kun so don't look so shocked but you know I won't have you doing things like that to Sasuke-kun geddit!" she snapped at him.
He looked bemused so she knew about him and Sasuke, what else did she know. Maybe she already found out about them meeting at the ramen shop and dragged him away on purpose.
"Sakura! What? What is going on?" "You know very well and so Naruto I will make you feel the pain Sasuke-kun does if you hurt him, understand?"
She knew, it was written on her face. 'We were so careful how could Sakura have seen us, we knew better than to meet on missions looking like we were best friends. What's Sasuke going to say?"
'Ha that told him to stop blackmailing Sasuke-kun, so now step two – get the info' she stopped yelling and turned her facial expression back into a warm smile.
"So Naruto…You and Sasuke, you must tell each other things right" Naruto's smile widened "Yeah, we talk about everyth…I mean why would I talk to him"
"Ok so even if you don't talk or communicate much, surly he confides things in you such as likes he has for certain people"
"Well…I know he likes and dislikes some people and he likes, likes and hate, hates other people…"
This was going to be hard. Sakura sighed and tried again.
"So um…does he like, like Ino?" "Why she is so annoying, eh Sakura-chan?"
Sakura had turned her warm smile into a soft pout. "Naruto… this is hard for me to ask but does…does Sasuke-kun like, like me?"
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sasuke sat in his usual seat inside the ramen shop, he had ordered something light to eat as he was waiting for someone to come and join him.
'Where is that loser? He'd better get her fast the girl at the counter keeps giving me the 'looks'' Sasuke was always adored by girls and they were always doing crazy things to get his attention.
Sasuke ate a mouthful of his soup and smiled as he remembered some of the crazed things including hiding in bins or using invisible jutsus.
The old ramen seller looked at Sasuke questioningly as he smirked into bowl.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Naruto looked away before replying "He does like you…" Sakura beamed "He does?" 'Haha take that Ino, he likes me, he likes me'
"Yeah but only as a friend" Sakura had 'Haha very funny now quit joking' etched onto her face. "But…Sakura…I … I used to like, like you"
Sakura wasn't listening, so Sasuke didn't like Ino or herself who was it. "Huh? Sakura did you hear?" "Oh, what do you mean you used to? Why don't you like me now?"
Naruto felt pretty clueless hadn't she just found him out. "Well I am kind of with someone else"
They stared at each other for a few minutes. "Why don't we go and get some ramen?" "Why?"
"Because you love ramen and I will pay for how ever many bowls it takes to tell me what you guys are up to because I want to be a part of it too"
Naruto chocked on the dumplings he was eating. What on earth was going on and why did Sakura want to join in with him and Sasuke?
"Don't give me that look, if it stops you from hurting Sasuke-kun I want to help"
"Er… I have to go now" he stood up knocking plates onto the floor. Sakura was confused. "Fine! But just remember if you hurt Sasuke-kun you will feel pain"
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sasuke had gotten bored waiting for Naruto and left the small building. He walked around the corner, stopping in front of Naruto who had come running down the street.
"Erm Sasuke, I think…"
"Now you show up, your late you loser! So im bored and I'm going home" Sasuke wasn't interested in what he had to say. The moment was over the fun was not there.
"Wait I'll come with." Even though Sasuke had dismissed him on the terms that the excitement was over, he accepted Naruto's company.
Sakura had been following Naruto after realizing that he would go to Sasuke and apologize to him.
Now was her chance to find out the reason why Sasuke was acting so weirdly. She hid in the shadowed darkness and used her ninja training knowledge to the full potential.
She noted that the two headed towards the area where the Uchiha clan once lived, and followed behind quietly as best as she could.
The other two members of her squad turned the corner and out of view. She would need to stay reasonably close so that she didn't get lost but far away enough to remain undetected.
Using her perfected chakra control Sakura climbed the nearest tree and found a suitable position where she could see both of them.
Sasuke had pushed Naruto away playfully but Naruto pinned him against a wall lined with red and white fan shaped symbols.
She could see that Naruto had leaned in close so that their faces seemed a blur from her post. 'That Naruto, and after I told him, if he hurts Sasuke-kun…"
Sasuke now had Naruto pinned against the wall. "Maybe we should go inside, there is someone else out here with us" he whispered quietly into Naruto's ear
"It's Sakura, I think she knows about us" Naruto replied also in a whisper. Sasuke had gone into a big building and Sakura watched them both go inside.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After seeing them go inside Sakura had attempted to get closer, so she had focused the chakra in her feet and had climbed a tree before jumping onto the roof of the building next door to Sasuke's.
When Sasuke had closed the bedroom door he had a sly smirk on his face. He looked at Naruto who stared dreamily back.
Sasuke was pulled close by Naruto who kissed him which was returned with a passion.
Sakura had just managed to climb the roof and was figuring a way to get down into Sasuke's back garden as the nearest tree was out of reach. She sighed and turned back on herself to climb down the hard way.
Suddenly her hand lost footing as a roof tile slipped "Urgh!" She fell and crash landed on her side in a hedge.
Sasuke stopped tearing at Naruto's clothes when he heard the crash "Sasuke? What is it? What happened?"
Sasuke pushed himself up off Naruto and headed for the door. Naruto felt offended what did he do? "Sasuke! You…Huh?"
He was getting up to follow Sasuke to the back door where Sakura could be seen lying in a bush. "Sakura! What are you doing on my property at this time of night?" he sounded angry but who wouldn't be.
"I...erm...i was just checking your garden for bugs!" She wore an embarrassed mask, if only she hadn't tripped. She was admiring Sasuke's lack of t-shirt when Naruto called out to Sasuke.
"What is wrong with you Sasuke? First you say your bored, then you make me wait, I was just getting into…arhh Sakura-chan what are you doing here!"
Sakura's expression changed to a dopey grin as she saw Sasuke and Naruto both shirtless, with Naruto also missing a sock. She then cackled in a mad laughter.
"Haha Haha Ha you and Naruto hahhaha" She stepped backwards before falling into the pond. She was sitting foot deep in the pond still laughing as the fountain bobbed up and down against her head.
"Erm Sakura?" Sasuke indicated to Naruto to grab her other arm and together they pulled her out. "I have a towel for her to use but I'm not helping her change"
They placed her in an old bedroom and made sure that there was something for her to change into when she woke from her daze.
"So Naruto where were we?" Sasuke stared at Naruto, who was already drawing closer.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
An hour or so later it was still dark. It wasn't comforting but Naruto beside him was.
"Sasuke, you think Sakura will mind much about you and me?" Naruto was comfortably propped against Sasuke who lay on his back.
"Why should we care what she thinks?" Sasuke shrugged before placing an arm around Naruto.
"Don't you think we should break this off just for a few days so that Sakura doesn't get the wrong idea?" "What are you saying?" Sasuke was hurt why Sakura was interfering with them now.
"Naruto, I can change and I will even prove how much I need you" Sasuke was looking directly into his eyes. The both sat upright and Sasuke let go of him.
"Sasuke, I need you too and I don't want to leave you but I don't want to hurt Sakura"
"So you're leaving me for her!" Sasuke got off the bed and walked towards the door. "Where are you going? Sasuke, Sasuke!"
"Fine! Naruto if you want her just go but if you still need me, meet me outside by our ramen tree with her tomorrow. You can bring Kakashi if you like" He turned before slamming the door.
Naruto felt the tears run down his face. 'Sasuke? Why? Why? I didn't want this to happen.' He lay there in Sasukes bed smudging his tears into the pillow.
In the other room Sakura had come to her senses. Her head had a tremendous lump on it. "Huh? Sasuke-kun and Naruto! Where am I?" She saw the Uchiha crest and realized she was inside Sasukes house.
She wandered through the rooms. "Sasuke-kun" she called sweetly however upon opening a door she saw a blonde haired genin laying on the covers, she could see he was crying.
"Naruto?" she walked over his face was red. 'Oh no! Sasuke-kun must have beaten him up and it's my fault' She comforted Naruto who flinched at her touch.
"Naruto" all he did in reply was glare at her in a un-Naruto like way.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The morning had come surprisingly fast when Sakura stepped into the last Uchihas room. Instead of finding Sasuke she had found Naruto.
"Sakura, come with me we have to get to the ramen tree now!" He said staring out the window. "What…why?"
"Because just do it!" he snapped before pulling his clothes on hurriedly.
He dragged her out of the house and began to pull her along the street. "Naruto, I didn't think Sasuke would do this to you!" she knew that this was all her fault.
"Yeah, well now I need your help to fix it!" "Naruto what are you going to do?"
Sasuke was sitting in the branches of their ramen tree where he had sat comfortably for hours. He glared at Sakura as she and Naruto came to stop in front of the tree.
Sasuke jumped down. He was standing a metre or two away from Naruto. "So you came after all, and you brought company" he said gesturing toward Sakura.
"Sasuke, I'm sorry…I didn't want this to happen" Naruto started running towards Sasuke. "Naruto! Stop!" Sakura tried to stop him, Sasuke would surly hit him again.
Sasuke caught Naruto into a tight hug. "I knew you'd come back to me, I knew you'd come for more" Sakura was already running towards them. She didn't want to see them in another fight between each other.
Where is Kakashi-sensei this time[He was probably reading his book or sleeping
Naruto laughed at Sasuke before burying his blonde head into Sasuke's shoulder, which stopped Sakura in her tracks.
Making sure Sakura could see Sasuke lifted Naruto's head up and met Naruto's lips with his own.
Sakura screamed so loudly that people began emerging from their houses. "WHAT! WHAT IS GOING ON??!"
"Sasuke! Why! How!" Sakura was dumb struck she was excepting them to fight it out not kiss and make out!
"Sakura-chan, I thought you already knew back at the dumpling shop" Naruto again was puzzled. What did she think was going on?
"But…but you were blackmailing Sasuke-kun because you knew who he loves and then he and…and…!"
"So you tried to break us up when you had the whole story wrong" Sasuke had anger in his tone again.
"I wanted to know who you liked because you and Naruto were acting so strangely but you always acted like you hated each other" Sakura's face was overflowing with tears of embarrassment and guilt.
"That was so we didn't blow cover, I did want to tell you but Sasuke made me promise"
"So…so you and Sasuke are really are together?" by now all the usual Sasuke stalkers had joined the crowd.
"Isn't it obvious" Sasuke said sarcastically. Sakura blinked at him. He sighed before pulling Naruto into a dip and kissing him once again.
The crowd erupted with furious screams and cries of 'Why! Sasuke! Why!' "Er…Sasuke we better start running" "Yeah I think your right"
The two started running trying to avoid the crowd of mad fan girls who were now yelling 'Naruto! Come back here' or 'Naruto! How dare you!'
Sasuke and Naruto managed to cut them off at the Konoha entrance gates. "I think the dip was a bit much don't you?"
"What ever, lets just get to my house, no one goes there and they'll probably storm your apartment first"
With that the headed back into the village and took side routes to avoid people, all the way back to Sasuke's house.
