"So Sakura-chan... How's Sasuke-kun?"

"Huh?"

"You know mister make-believe-boyfriend."

"He's not make believe Ino-pig. Seriously, why don't any of you guys ever believe me?" A voice snapped over the phone.

"Honey it's okay to come out and tell us he doesn't exist. We won't judge you."

"EEK SASUKE-KUN NOOOO!"

"Sakura?"

"Hn."

"Who is this?"

"Hn."

"I've never met a Hn but I'd love to talk to Sakura again."

"She's busy."

Click.

"HEY!" Ino shouted before pulling her phone away from her ear and glaring at it. Throwing her phone into her bag Ino continued her way towards Sakura apartment. Secretly trying to get her out so she could finally stop being all hermit like and come out of her shell.

Making a small detour to fetch coffee for herself she wondered who took Sakura's phone. Sighing she pulled her phone back out and dialed Tenten's number.

"Hi! Tenten here. I can't come to the phone... Most likely training with Neji-kun or at the dojo teaching. Leave a message and I'll get back to you..."

"Oh forget it." Ino snapped hitting the phone's end call button. Sighing she called the next person on her list. "Hinata-chan please pick upppp." Ino sighed.
"Hello?"

"NARUTO GIVE HINATA HER PHONE!" Ino yelled glaring at the few people who turned at stared.

"Hello?"

"HINA! I THINK SAKI-CHAN GOT KIDNAPPED... " Ino stopped to take a breath "Iwasonthephonewithhereandthen hejustsaidshewasbusyandhungup!"

"Ino-chan... I... I don't know what you just said..."Hinata said softly.

"I SAID... I think Sakura got kidnapped because I was on the phone with her and then like she squealed and said no Sasuke-kun then some dude grunted and I asked to talk to Sakura and he just said she was busy and hung up..." Ino said without taking a breath.

"Oh..."

"YEAH! WE HAVE TO GO SAVE HER!" Ino said explaining a plan she though up as she walked faster towards Sakura's apartment.

"I don't know Ino... maybe it was her co-worker... or family member... there is no reason to assume..."Hinata murmured.

"But Hina... what if she really did get kidnapped... I mean she's always said she's got a boyfriend name Sasuke but how come we've never met him before. I mean what if that was code for help me I'm getting kidnapped!" Ino explained she go hear Hinata roll her eyes before she answered.

"I think you taking this out of proportion... Call her again see if she answers..." Hinata muttered before a soft cooing noise came of the phone.

"Hina?"

"Naruto."

"Give her back the phone."

"She's busy... You know we are... Hina-chan just had the baby."Naruto sighed before Ino heard the cooing again. "Plus Yuki-chan just woke up... Do you have any idea how hard it is to take care of someone when all they do is scream? Don't answer that."Naruto said before hissing the last part.

"Okay... Whatever. Tell Hina-chan I hope Yuki-chan is nice to her tonight... and you said it not me... I've gotta call Saki again.."

"She's with teme..."

"Who?"

"Teme... her boyfriend..."

"Not you too Naruto you've fallen for her trick too?"

"What trick... Oh hey look I gotta go... Hina needs help..."

CLICK

Ino huffed before dialing Sakura's number.

"HI this is Sakura. I'm busy at the moment I'll get back to you as soon as I can. Bye!"

Ino gasped loudly before breaking out into a run. "DON'T WORRY FOREHEAD I'LL SAVE YOU!" Ino screamed as she ran in heels. Running as fast as she could she made it to Sakura's apartment complex and made it up the two sets of stairs completely forgetting about the elevator and down the hallway.

Pulling her keys from her back she gasped as she hear a soft moan come from the apartment. "Saki..." Ino whispered eyes tearing up.

"Nee... Sasuke-kun stop that. Ohh..." Sakura's voice was heard from the door. "Saskue-kun!" Sakura laughed.

Ino shook her head before unlocking the door and pushing it open. "SAKURA?"

"Ino-pig?" Sakura's head popped out of the kitchen. "What are you doing here?"

"Are you alright? Who was that guy who picked your phone up? Are you alright?" Ino said rushing towards Sakura who looked nervously back into the kitchen then back at Ino's approaching figure.

"Ino... No!" Sakura shouted as Ino pushed past her.

"Shika-kun?"

"Troublesome woman..." Shika muttered as he leaned back in a chair with a bowl of icing in front of him. Ino looked over at Sakura then her gave her a confused look. "What's he doing here? With you?" Ino asked looking heart broken. She thought of the worse.

"NO! Ino-chan. He's just here helping cause he wanted to surprise you for your birthday!" Sakura said moving towards Ino who stomped her foot and glared at Sakura.

Sakura stopped short. "Who's Sasuke then?" Ino asked as tears formed.

"Hn?" a monotone voice came from behind her.

"Sasuke-kun!" Sakura said with a smile. Ino turned and saw a tallish man leaning against the counter with a tomato in hand. "I see you found my tomatoes... I'm glad... I left them in the fridge just for you." Sakura babbled before walking past Ino and kissed Sasuke's cheek softly and pulled the bowl she had on the counter to. "Ino-chan this Is Sasuke... He's my boyfriend." Sakura said looking at Ino before back at Sasuke shyly. "Sasuke-kun... This is Ino-chan..." Sakura added quietly.

Ino looked over the man leaning against the counter. He was tall and had spiky black hair. Ino wondered if she had seen him before cause he looks familiar to her but she couldn't place it at first. "Nice to meet you."

"Hn."

"Sasuke-kun!" Sakura snapped giving him a look. He took a bite out of his tomato then let out a sigh before turning to Ino and giving her a nod.

"I've seen you somewhere..." Ino said squinting at looking at him. He only shrugged before throwing out the tomato parts he couldn't eat. He sighed before standing over Sakura his chin rested at her shoulder and he murmured something in her ear before heading out of the room.

Ino looked confused after him but shook her head and dumped her bag onto a chair near Shikamaru and kissing him on the cheek before bouncing over to Sakura.

"Saki-chan... Who is he... seriously I've seen his face before."

Sakura only shrugged before ignoring her and worked on the cake batter.

"Sakura." Sasuke muttered as he entered the room again. He had changed from a pair of shorts and a loose tee shirt to a business suit.

"Sasuke-kun I really wish you didn't have to go back..." Sakura muttered before turning and facing him. She smiled and put the batter down. He shrugged before pulling her to him and murmured something in her ear. Sakura glanced up at him with a smile and nodded.

"Tell the dope I'm happy for him..." Sasuke muttered after kissing Sakura softly. Sakura nodded looking a little dazed but happy. "I'll call you some time." He murmured before throw the backpack he had put on the floor when he entered the kitchen again back over his shoulder.

Sakura nodded before leaning against the counter again. "Saki?" Ino asked quietly. Sakura jumped up before looking at Ino curiously. "Where on earth is he going? He was all casual one second then uptight businessman the next..."

"Troublesome woman." Shikamaru muttered shaking his head but didn't say anything else.

"You don't know?" Sakura said looking surprised at Ino.

"Nope..."

"Sasuke is the head of the Uchiha Inc... He's been head for like the past four years..." Sakura said looking at Ino strangely.

Ino's eyes widened and stared after the door then back at Sakura then back at the door. "HOW DID YOU GET HIM! He's a freaking heir and not to mention HOT andandand He's got like millions of girls going after him. He's like the freaking poster boy of what all woman wish business men looked like..." Ino exploded.

Sakura started to giggle. "I'll be sure and tell Sasuke-kun that..." She whispered before pulling her self together. "Sasuke-kun and I met my first day of med school... I may or may not have ran into him and caused him to spill soda on his pants... But that's another story... I felt bad so I offered to pay for his lunch or something then we ended up talking for hours... Then yeah... Somewhere around the end of freshman year we got together... and been together ever since..." Sakura said not looking at Ino.

"YOU'VE BEEN DATING FOR FIVE YEARS?"

Sakura sighed but nodded. "He's to... whats the word... antsy about marriage... So I deal with it like this... However his last stay here might have changed his mind." Sakura said with a smile.

"Oh..."

"Mmmhm... Anyways Ino-pig... The batter doesn't seem to wanna set... Wanna just get a spoon and watch dramatic chick flicks on the couch?" Sakura asked holding the cake batter she had been stirring up.

"You know away to a girls heart Sakura." Ino smiled before grabbing a spoon out of a draw. "Shika-kun you coming? You can come sleep through the movies if you want." Ino smiled brightly at him.

He sighed but nodded.


A little while later as Ino and Shika were cuddled up on her couch Sakura snuck into the kitchen to clean up and put away dishes. Smiling as she worked she thought about Sasuke until the phone rang loudly at the other end of the kitchen. Pretty much nose diving right at it Sakura managed to get to the phone before it got to noisy and picked it up. "Hello?"

"You should really get caller Id..."

"Hi Sasuke-kun."

"Hn."

"Mou. Sasuke-kun I thought you were past 'Hn.'ing me. Then again you are a Uchiha... all Uchiha's are like that..." Sakura muttered rolling her eyes.

"Aa."

"Sasuke-kun?"

"I think I left something upstairs." He muttered.

"OH! I was just gonna get a blanket for Ino and Shika... They fell asleep on the couch." Sakura said before hurrying to the stairs. Sakura listened to Sasuke mutter something to his assistant. "Oh... Sasu-kun. Ino said your the poster boy for what women want a business man to look like." Sakura said with a small giggle.

She could literally hear Sasuke roll his eyes and sigh. "Aa." He muttered.

Sakura smiled as she got to the closet in the hallway upstairs. "Mmhm. What did you forgot Sasuke-kun?"

"It should be in your room on your bed." He murmured.

Sakura sighed and nodded her head forgetting he couldn't see her. Entering her room she didn't see anything at first then found a small box and gasped.

"Sasuke-kun?"

"Open it."

Sakura stood shakily with a tiny box in her hands. "It's pretty." She murmured opening the box.
