Okey guys, I made another story and they are a little ooc. I mean Sasuke is a little OOC.

Summary: They were best friends since he talked to her when he got back. He become a player who always dumps the girls after he get the pleasure while she always save him if he was in trouble with his girls. He never touched her and she wonder why. What they both didn't know was that their feelings are just mutual.

Disclaimer: I do not own naruto or any characters of the story.

Best friends

Chapter 1: Meeting him again

I always walk down the streets of konoha since I am always bored at my apartment. I would always pass by the cherry blossom park just to see the kids playing and having fun while they were running and catching each other. While I sit down on the bench, I saw a boy and a girl as he protect her from the other kids who teases her. The boy reminds me of Sasuke since he was my protector before. I closed my eyes to feel the wind as it hugs my body and caress my face. I was interupted by a loud voice yelling my name.

"SAKURA-CHAN!!!!!!SASUKE'S BACK!!!" Naruto yelled at me. I just blinked at what he yelled.

"Say what?" I asked as he pant hard.

"I said, Sasuke's back." Naruto said when he already regain his breathing.

"Ah" was the only word I could form that day.

"Let's go and talk to him." he said as he tugged my hand. I quickly yank it back.

"Uh Naruto, I think I should go because I need to talk to Ino so perhaps I'll talk to him alone." I said as he grin.

"Okey, see you round Sakura-chan!" he yelled as he run towards the hokage tower.

Why did he come back? That was the only thing that I asked to myself. I am happy as a friend that he's back but I still can't face him now. Not now, not tomorrow, just not too soon. I really want to talk to somebody today. I need to talk to someone. I made my way to Ino's house since she was the only girl I can talk to right now. When I entered the door quietly I saw Shikamaru and Ino on the sofa, talking and laughing. I think, I have no right to disturb them for now so I just go outside and walk again. Ever since they got closer, Ino and Shikamaru started to have feelings for each other. I somehow felt lonely. I was the only top kunoichi who didn't have a man. Tenten have Neji, Hinata have Naruto and Ino have Shikamaru so I am left alone.

I started to head home when someone stop me.

"Sakura-chan, the Godaime wishes to see you." Shizune said as she was gone again in a poof of smoke.

"I wonder why?" I said to my self as I walked to the hokage's office.

I slowly walk there as I reach the door. I knock on it and when I heard she said to come in, there stood Sasuke in bloody clothes and with calm expression.

"Sakura, I want you to heal him and take him to your apartment okey?" Tsunade ordered.

"O..key" I said slowly.

"You are both dismissed." she said and in a poof of smoke, were gone. I opened my house and help him inside. I let him sit on my couch as I clean my hands before I heal him. I sit beside him as he fell asleep already. I placed my hand on the deep cut on his chest as the chakra glow an mend the torn skin. I watch as his chest rise and fall as he breathe. With my monstrous strength, I carry him to the room that he will be using. I tuck him in the bed carefully so that he didn't wake up. He needs rest. I started to eat as I go downstairs.

The next morning was a very good day to start, the sun is shinning so I think I can stroll for now. I stretch my arms as I went to the bathroom to do my morning routine. When I opened the door I didn't notice that Sasuke was there inside. I washed my face when I heard a cold voice.

"What the hell are you doing?" he asked. That's when I noticed that he's in the shower. I muttered a quick and embarrased sorry and walk out of the bathroom. I totally forgot that he was is with me. I quickly prepared the breakfast. As I started to eat, he go down and look at my ref and saw one tomato. He grab it and started munching it. So he really likes tomatoes.

"So, I assumed you accomplish your goal." I said to open up a topic.

"Aa." he replied.

"How about Orochimaru?" I asked as I eyed him.

"He's dead already along with the sound ninja's that tried to kill me." he answered.

"What happened to you this past few years?" I asked as I took another bite of my sandwich.

"Not much." he said as he took a step closer to me. "How about you?"

"Nah, nothing happened much. Just took the exams to pass the jounin test." I said as I look outside.

"You pass the test?" he asked as he take a seat across me.

"Yeah." I replied. We just talk about what happened to our lives since we didn't see each other for so long. He opened up everything that happened to him since he went to Orochimaru's lair until he discovered that the snake sannin needs to take over him and how he killed him. I listened to him attentively and showing him that I was interested because this was a good start for our friendship. He acknowledge me and the fact that I will not tell a soul to anyone about what happened to him. I think this time, I am happy that he treated me like a friend and not some kind of a dirt that needed to be ignored.

"Sakura, you wouldn't tell anyone right?" he asked in a low tone.

"Of course I wouldn't. Just tell me everyhing and I'll keep it forever okey?" I said as I eyed him.

"You are a good friend Sakura." Somehow, at that words I flinched inwardly. To tell you the truth, I still love him but it seems like I will never have the chance to earn his love more than friends. I just give him a small smile.

"Let's walk outside Sasuke-kun, it's so beautiful outside." I suggested.

"Aa." he replied as he stand up to follow me. We walk down the street and talk while walking. I enjoyed being with him because he never showed this talkative side of him when we were in our genin days. He even laugh when we tell something very funny. I like this new side of him and I think I am just falling more harder for him. When we grew tired, we sit on the cafeteria. While we were ordering a snack and drinks, I heard Tenten's voice calling me.

"Saku-chan! Uchiha-san, it's nice to see you here." she said as she eyed Sasuke. Sasuke just nod.

"Hi Tenten-chan, what are you doing here?" I asked in a friendly tone.

"Well, I just drop by since I saw you here and I was wondering who was your date. she put an emphasis on the last word.

"TENTEN" I hissed.

"Just kidding Saku-chan. Anyway, I should go now, Neji-kun might be worry. See you round!" she said as she go.

"Neji-kun?" he asked as he sipped his drink.

"Oh, I forgot to tell you that Neji and Tenten were officially in a relationship now. Even Shikamaru and Ino are in a relationship now." I explained.

"Ah. I also heard Naruto and the Hyuuga heiress already in a relationship." he said and I just nod at the information. "What about you?"

"Me? Well, I'm single." I said confidently.

"Your not dating someone?" he asked as he eyed me.

"Uh-huh. Actually, I got suitors but I decline them." I said just above my whisper. He just nod at this.

"Why did you decline them?" he asked.

"You know the answer." I said as I finished eating and stand up to walk back at home. He followed behind. When we reached the house, we started to go to our rooms when we suddenly bumped into each other. I fell on the floor. He extend a hand and he pulled me up. When he pulled me up, I accidentally bumped on his chest. His heart is beating fast and so is mine. I look up to him and he look down at me. I felt my eyes closed waiting for the kiss but instead, I felt his lips on my temples.

"Thank you for the walk. I enjoyed your company." he said as he entered the room. I touched my temples where he placed the kiss. I just smiled, at least he enjoyed my company. I walk to my room and sleep in a sweet deep slumber.

Well, that's it for now okey. I hope you guys would also like this new fic.
