-Omake Theatre: Sakura's Plushies-
It was a beautiful, clear, and sunny morning. A perfect day for spending the time outside, but if you looked into the apartment of 17-year-old Haruno Sakura, you would think otherwise.
A gust of cool air gently awakened the sleeping kunoichi, who was tangled up beneath her comforter with her bed sheets, pillows, and of course…numerous plushies. She slowly opened her jade green orbs and sat up, allowing the 3rd Sasuke plushie to fall out of the crook of her arm onto her pillow. As she rubbed the sleep from her eyes, she noticed that her window was open.
"I remember closing it last night…hmm…oh well." She said to herself. The bubble-gum haired girl slowly began making her messy bed, and carefully gathered her similar looking plushies and placed them on the pillows she had tossed onto the ground.
She carefully tucked in the last of the covers and began lining up the plushies, all of which resembled the love of her life who was her current boyfriend, and the heartthrob of Konoha village. Uchiha Sasuke.
"Sasuke-kun plushie number 12, Sasuke-kun plushie number 13, Sasuke-kun plushie number 14…" Sakura suddenly looked alarmed as the last plushie in her arm was placed onto the bed.
"15! Where is Sasuke-kun number 15!" She panicked and began throwing all of the objects on her newly made bed onto the floor. She finally ended up sitting on her bed in frustration of being unable to locate the object of her current desire. Then she bent over the edge of her bed to peer underneath the mattress in hopes of locating her plushie.
"Did you make these?"
A cool voice caused the girl to fall over onto the floor.
"Sasuke-kun…don't scare me like that." she moaned, rubbing her head. She winced as she stood up and caught sight of the Uchiha prodigy himself who was sitting on her windowsill, giving the plush toy in his hand an annoyed look.
"I don't like repeating myself." He muttered, tossing the toy in his palm and catching it.
"Yes. I did." Sakura blushed at both the facts of him catching her clad in her purple pajamas and her numerous Sasuke plushies.
"Have enough of these already? How many in total?" He asked, raising a brow.
"Yes I have many…I made 14." The kunoichi's blush deepened. Sasuke tossed the toy at her, which she caught and hugged tightly. He smirked at how naïve and oblivious she could be.
"Sasuke-kun, were you the one who opened my window and took plushie number 15!" Sakura demanded.
"Well, if you have all these…plushies, you don't really need me now do you?" He asked, feeling humored.
"Sasuke-kun!" Sakura whined, just as he stood up on the windowsill as if getting ready to leave. She grabbed his arm and pulled him inside with such a force that he landed on top of her as both fell onto the floor. His hand cushioned her head as they greeted the ground. The kunoichi immediately felt herself blushing again.
He looked down at her with interest as his smirk simply grew in amusement, "Why are there 15 plushies when you only made 14? Even so, you don't need me if you have all of these."
"Of course I need you Sasuke-kun…after all, you're my plushie number 1." Sakura whispered, wrapping her arms around his neck. He leaned his head forward and captured her mouth with his own making Sakura gasp. She was definitely getting better at kissing he agreed with himself consciously as she allowed him to search her sweet mouth.
"Ah hah, damn plushies, whose number one now!"The black-haired boy smirked against Sakura's mouth and glared at all the plush toys on her bed in triumph.
"Wait…I'm a plushie?"

Here's the first chapter! Enjoy!
-Scroll One: Sasuke's Craving-
"SHIT!" was the first word that entered the young Uchiha's mind as he found himself enclosed in the smallest corner of the street surrounded by dozens of his fangirls. Each and every one seemed to have an appetite for Sasuke Uchiha that afternoon.
"Back off, girls, he's mine." A calm, but angry voice caused the lustful cravings of the group of fangirls to evolve in to jealous protests as they unwillingly divided themselves so that the pink-haired kunoichi could approach their beloved Sasuke.
All of them knew that Sasuke was strictly Haruno Sakura's property. As in…her boyfriend. Yet, even through their uttermost respect for Sakura, as a fellow girl, for grabbing the unreachable Ice Prince, they were still filled with rage and jealousy amongst themselves in a knowingly useless fight for the Uchiha.
A look of desperate relief crossed the Sharingan user's facial features as Sakura grabbed his arm and led him carefully through the crowd of hormone driven girls. As they stepped into the daylight of the main street, both sighed in gratitude for being able to escape the madness.
Sakura grinned, "Got you just in time."
"Ah." He replied, allowing her to wipe the sweat off his face with her handkerchief. Sakura replaced her kerchief in her bag before lacing her fingers with his. She was content with this but it made her realize that lately, Sasuke had been more comfortable around her. He had allowed her to come closer to him.
The couple had gotten together about 7 months before which happened a few weeks after Sasuke's trial to return to Konoha. Both 17 year olds were a bit uneasy at first after his arrival, but eventually, Sasuke's emotions had welcomed themselves and he had asked her out.
He was still the same Sasuke she had known for so long. He was quiet and kept to himself, and still as handsome as ever. His hair had grown and his eyes were the same dark brooding black but a bit more alive. Sasuke had definitely developed in height and become full with his muscle weight but still light and agile, which was perfect for his profession.
Sasuke had been limited to missions from ranks of C through D for the first few months, but soon he had been allowed more dangerous assignments as long as Sakura had been keeping a careful eye over him. Lately though, Tsunade-sama had been considering making Sasuke ANBU captain once he reached 21 which had made Sakura the proud girlfriend.
Sakura knew though, in an unwritten book of dating Uchiha Sasuke, was the law of never ever asking him about his past or disrupting his thoughts. Of course, no matter her temptation, she was sure to hover away from those matters. She also limited her affections to holding hands, short hugs, and a kiss on the cheek.
The pink-haired girl had still not lost her first kiss and she felt a bit frustrated at that.
Her mind ended up wandering the path of thoughts of Sasuke being her first kiss, knowing the unlikely situation, but still trudging along. She longed for the moment to arrive soon.
Sasuke, being his observative self, questioned her irritation, "What's wrong?"
"Nothing Sasuke-kun! Ano, shall I make us lunch today?" Sakura said, quickly changing the subject while trying to keep her embarrassment from showing on her face.
"Mm." The Uchiha prodigy nodded slowly. Whatever was bothering Sakura was starting to bug him, but he dropped the matter.
"Suggesting the problem now would cause her ignorance." Sasuke thought to himself, with his hands clasped under his chin in his past academy position on the table. The scent of hot food wafted through the air of the Uchiha mansion and greeted the Sharingan user's senses.
Sakura quickly set down plates, chopsticks, and cups of tea before bringing in the bowls of noodles, orange chicken, other various dishes consisting of both vegetables and meat, and of course a small plate full of fresh, chopped tomatoes.
"Made enough?" Sasuke inquired, raising an eyebrow.
"Of course! I made extras to heat up incase if you don't have time to cook during the week, Sasuke-kun. I'm not about to let you starve!" Sakura said, her cheeks heating up as she rushed back into the kitchen to remove her apron (she had bought it to keep in Sasuke's kitchen incase she needed to cook for him whenever she came over).
He smirked at her as she sat down.
"Sasuke-kun, don't stare, you're making me nervous! Tell me how it tastes!" Sakura said, anxiously wringing the hem of her dress.
"Nervous huh? I already know how good your cooking is. What I don't know is…" Sasuke pulled her towards him his smirk growing by the second, "How you taste."
Sakura's cheeks burned as his warm breath tickled her skin. He leaned forward, eyes narrowing rapidly and captured her lips with his. The pink-haired kunoichi was stunned but she felt happiness explode inside her. Sasuke nibbled her lower lip asking for entrance, which she gave him, allowing the Uchiha prodigy to explore her mouth.
They broke apart after a short minute, both cursing the need for oxygen. Sakura's hand immediately flew to her mouth, blushing furiously causing Sasuke to smirk again.
"You taste sweet." He said, licking his upper lip, eyes glittering maliciously.
"I…I thought you didn't like s-sweet things." Sakura stuttered.
Sasuke gently pushed her back so that her head came in contact with the empty cushion on the ground and he leaned forward again, lying on top of her so that he could kiss her again.
"You're the only exception I'll ever make." He said quietly before placing his mouth over hers.
After a while, both of them were flushed from their heated make out session.
"Sasuke-kun…I don't want to…break this…but the food…is getting…cold." Sakura said between kisses. The couple broke apart, breathing heavily, but content.
Sasuke's eyes flashed, "Yeah, but I'm starving." He kissed her again.
"You tease! After all the trouble I went through." Sakura huffed, blushing deeply, hitting his arm playfully.
The Sharingan user unwillingly picked up the pair of chopsticks and flicked a few bites of the warm dishes in front of him into his mouth. Sakura smiled before she began to eat.
"Was that what was bothering you?" Sasuke asked, eyeing the green-eyed kunoichi.
"What?"
Sasuke caught her mouth again for a brief second making her realize his question. Sakura nodded feeling embarrassed.
He smirked, "Even if I finish all of this, I'll still be hungry. I hope you'll be around to cook more?"
Sakura's face heated up and she nodded.
"I got more than a first kiss today…" she thought happily.
