Naruto and Sakura sat back to back on a small boat in a pond near the village. Each of them were holding onto there knees heads down just staring into the bottom of the boat, and they both knew what the other was thinking of. Sasuke. Sakura leaned up and brushed some hair out of her face, Naruto stood up, looking into nowhere off the boat. He closed his eyes but the only image that came to mind was Sakura and all of her pain caused by that bastard. Why did he have to hurt her? He knew no matter what he did he could never change her mind about him, to her he was always the obnoxious little brat and Sasuke was amazing. He sighed and looked over at Sakura who had just cupped her hands in the water and splashed some on her face. Even as she did something so simple Naruto couldn't help but be amazed by her beauty that even to this day it still stunned him. As they both looked up at the night sky Naruto turned to her and said something that had been coming out of his mouth a lot lately.
"I will bring him back, I swear to you...Sakura-chan." he whispered
At this point all the thinking Sakura had done over the past few weeks all came rushing back and smacked her in the face. Who was it that cheered for her when she was the first one to make it to the top of the tree on there first big mission? Naruto. Who was it that cheered her on while she was fighting Ino more then anyone else in the room? Naruto. Who always seemed to cheer her up when she was down? Naruto. Sasuke did none of those things, in fact half the time when she was feeling bad it was because of him. Naruto was always there for here no matter the circumstances or the danger, he really cared for her and Sasuke almost never took a second glance at her. She started to cry.
"Eh? Whats wrong Sakura-chan?" Naruto asked in his soft caring voice
"It's just...you have always been here for me no matter what happened, thats so much more then I can say for Sasuke and I guess...I just haven't noticed until just now." she raised her head and said "Thank you Naruto-kun." softly under her breath.
Naruto waited a moment before placing an arm around her, he could still hear her sobbing but it was much slower now and that made him feel much better. She sighed and rested her head on his shoulder, Naruto smirked he had been waiting for this moment to happen his whole life. He pulled her closer and she smiled as well.
"Naruto, it took me this long to come to this...and I, I don't want to mess it up I care for you more then you know and more then I knew until this night. I don't care about Sasuke anymore he caused me nothing but pain and I was blind to it, and through the years all you did was try to make me notice you and make me happy and I turned you away every time." She sobbed "Thank you Naruto for always being there for me, if it wasn't for you I may not have lasted this long." She stopped and buried her face in his Jacket.
"Sakura I have been waiting my whole life to say this and I don't know how to say it in the romantic way most girls would want me to so here goes. Sakura I love you." he ended and held his breath.
She lifted her head up smiled and leaned at him lightly kissing him. Naruto was in shock his first kiss from the person he always wanted it to come from. She leaned against him and they both looked into each others eyes, for one brief night there was no thinking about the worldly problems or about Sasuke. It was just Sakura and Naruto and it felt so right.
