Naruto was happy. Here he was at Ichiraku with Sakura, enjoying a bowl of the world's best ramen. This wasn't such an oddity in itself, but the tone was different this time. She kept looking at him and smiling. At one point, their fingers brushed each other. Sakura blushed. They didn't talk during this meal, but it was one of those times when conversation wasn't really needed. She kept glancing at him as they paid and walked home. Her finger tips kept meeting his, and they almost interlaced their fingers many times. Both were blushing equally hard now.
They finally got to Naruto's door. Naruto put his hands on Sakura's shoulders, lightly pushed her back against the door frame and started kissing her. Her hands lowered themselves to his waist and she tentatively kissed back.
To coax her a little, he started licking her neck. The protagonists in Pervy Sage's novels did this and it always worked on the heroines.
However, something different happened. Sakura didn't become more relaxed. She disappeared in a puff of smoke only to be replaced by Neji! And Neji picked Naruto up by the front of his shirt and through him into a nearby tree.
That's odd, thought Naruto, there are no trees inside buildings.
When Naruto opened his eyes again, he did not see his apartment building. He saw the camp his team had made for the night and one very pissed off looking (when one can see fury through just one eye, it's really bad) Kakashi-sensei. He wiped his neck.
"Be thankful I went with the genjustu route instead of the stabbing one. Let that be a lesson to never lick your team leaders."
