"___Intro____"
Authors Note:: Hi hi! Yes I'm finally back from my, rather long, writing free vacation. This is a small story I have been working on....not that I haven't been working on my other ones. Actually I had the next five chapters for Torn written, but sadly at the end of class instead of putting the hand written copy in my folder I put it in a school book and lost all my work. That means I must go back and re-do it all. Gah! But anyways here's my story. Enjoy.

"Naru-kun! Wake up! Wake up! We're going to be late again! Seriously....GET UP!"
Naruto groaned, his cerulean blue eyes reluctantly opening to let in the soft beams of light that filtered through the window. From the looks of things, it could be no later that seven in the morning. Thus meaning it was far too early for this...well for the blonde anyways. He had never really been good when it came to getting up in the morning. Usually, he didn't even try to crawl out of bed until noon. A surprising fact considering he was a shinobi and supposed to have a strict schedule.
Finally sitting up, the blonde opened his eyes completely, focusing his eyes on the thin frame of the girl standing over the edge of his bed. If he wasn't used to the pink haired woman, he probably would have leaped from his safe, comfortable bed and cowered in a corner. Not that he wasn't tempted to do that now. Sakura was a very scary girl after all. Instead of cowering, however, he simply settled for rolling out of bed and, ungracefully, making his was towards the bathroom to take a nice, hot shower.
Sakura let out a sigh of relief as the bathroom door clicked shut. Slumping down, she sat on the edge of the unmade bed and rest her chin on the heel of her hand. Lately, it had been unbelievably hard to get Naruto out of his home. Not that it wasn't to be expected. Everyone knew things would be hard for him after the death of Itachi. Even Tsunade Sensei had seen that coming. Honestly, they were all surprised he hadn't broken down completely. The boy had been through so very much in his life and until very recently he had been alone through it all. Even Sakura herself was guilty of leaving the boy alone for her own selfish needs.
Luckily, they had all seen that error of their way and things were changing. That was probably the main reason Sakura was here now. After Itachi had died, the pink-haired kunoichi had pretty much taken up a motherly role, along with Tsunade-baba and Iruka Sensei. Whenever they weren't on missions or weighed down with their own daily routine, they were at Naruto's home, trying to take care of him as much as possible...even if he didn't want them to.
Author's Note:: Yes that's it for this chapter. Literally, just a short little intro. Bleh, what more do you want from me? Pre-calculus and chemistry are killing me. Almost literally. Just kidding. Don't worry I'll put up the next chapter soon though.
