: Hey, do I look like I own Naruto?

Chapter one, you wish!

Naruto ran quickly, though it was afternoon through the streets of Kohona. He looked around, and as he ran he saw Konohamaru.

"Hey, konohamaru!" he yelled over.

"Oi, look its Naruto sempai! Hey Naruto, what's in the box?" Konohamaru asked as he pointed at the big heart shaped box.

"Oh, nothing!" Naruto said with his foxiest grin. Naruto continued running. Thanks to training, he had become really quite fast. At the speeds Naruto was going, one might think he was late for training, which he indeed was. Soon, however, he caught sight of his team mates, Sakura and Sasuke.

"Hheeeeeyyy Sakura Chan!" Naruto yelled, while putting on his usual, huge Sakura smile.

"Hey Naruto." Sakura replied, and gave a small smile. At the sight of this smile Naruto smiled again, and even started to blush. He was about to talk to her when he was interrupted by Sasuke.

"You're late." Sasuke said, in his usual, cold distant self.

"Yeah, so what you jerk, I got here before master Kakashi didn't I?" Naruto then turned to Sakura. He was about to say something, when almost on cue, Kakashi appeared.

"Yo," Kakashi said, while giving his famous gesture. "I was out of rice, so I had to go pick some."

"WHY COULDN'T YOU BUY IT?" Naruto yelled.

Ignoring Naruto, Kakashi continued "today is a special valentines day. The ninja school, to celebrate the recent graduation of their 1200th student (Ryoko kynomi) is having a big valentines dance. All ninja are invited. I figured you all could use the day to get dates." And in a puff of smoke, Kakashi was gone.

"I'm going," Sasuke grumbled.

"Where?' asked Sakura.

"Home, I'll train there."

"So… you have a date to the dance?"

"No."

"Then…"

"Its utter foolishness Sasuke said.

"Hey, if you need a date…" a familiar voice came from behind them. "I'll go with you!" Ino said.

"Ino, you pig, Sasuke would never go with you! Right Sasuke? Sasuke?" but Sasuke had used the opportunity to leave.

"Sasuke! See, you scared him off! Saaaassuke!" Ino yelled as she ran toward the trail of dust.

Naruto looked at sakura, who to him looked as beautiful as ever. He looked as her skirt pulled around her thighs in the wind, as her beautiful face looked onwards, her eyes gleaming, like stars below her noble brow.

"What are you staring at?" sakura asked, sharply bringing Naruto back.

"Uhh…" he began to blush, "you, sakura Chan."

Sakura blushed slightly, as Naruto grabbed for the box he lugged over, and handed Sakura one of the largest chocolate boxes she had ever seen.

"Will you… be my valentine, sakura?" she looked at him, then, blushing, was about to say something when they were interrupted by a loud voice.

"Oi, billboard brow, I couldn't find Sasuke, but Shikamaru asked me out." (She blushed after this)

"Wow, really?" sakura asked, all of a sudden talkative and inquisitive. Spun the two forgot about Naruto, and walked off to get a dress. Naruto stood, and then thought- sakura still has the chocolates, she'll remember then went off for some ramen to reward himself for his work.

Sakura looked down at the piles of dresses that Ino had tried on. She sighed and started to put them back, because the trying on lady was glaring at them. When she put the last one back she saw the box of candy (all 4 pounds of it.)

"Naruto…" she said softly, blushing. Ino came out, and saw the chocolates and gasped.

"Oh my god, where did you get that? Who gave that to you?" Ino asked. Sakura snapped out of it, and replied, still blushing,

"Naruto…" she then remembered how she had forgotten to thank him! My god, he must be heart broken! "Ino, I have to go, I think I'll see you at the dance tonight! Bye!" she yelled as se burned sole (shoe sole, not her soul!) to go find Naruto.

It was almost dark, and Naruto had just gotten back from the armory where he gotten his "osanago" shurkiken replaced. He was walking head down. He looked over at the setting sun, slightly depressed. Sigh… I guess it's true. Sakura must hate me… I should have known… everyone does. After all, Naruto is only the name of the pill containing the well hated Kyubbi, kitsune spirit. He sighed again, and then he heard fast footsteps.

"Hey, Naruto!" Sakura's voice called to him. Naruto spun around, to quickly for Sakura, who started to trip. Naruto grabbed her, and held her in his arms. He looked down at her; she had been running some way. He started to blush, and then sakura began.

"Naruto, will you be my valentine?" she asked. Naruto, nearly over come with happiness, bent down over a little, till his lips were millimeters from hers. He moved in slowly his lips were so close to hers, he could nearly taste her breath. He moved in an extra inch and-
