She woke up and pushed the alarm button. The clock read 7:00 am. Sakura got up out of bed and went into the bathroom yawning and stretching out. She splashed some water on her face to wake her up so she can actually get moving. She turned on the shower as it quickly began to steam up the large bathroom she took off her clothes and got in. She gave a sigh as she began to wash her now long hair. The pink curls went to her mid-back as she washed them with the strawberry smelling shampoo.

After the shower she left the bathroom with a towel wrapped around her. She began to rummage through the closet for something to wear until she received a phone call. It was from Sanaki which pissed off Sakura who was also confused. Why is she so up this early? She thought.

Sanaki already knew what she was thinking. "I didn't go to sleep last night. I had a mission remember? That's why I'm up. Besides that Tsunade wants you to call Ino and Hinata and meet all of us at her office at 2 o' clock today." She said. Sakura gave a muffled groan. "I'll be at the Ichikiraku for a while and get breakfast. You rest up and me Ino and Hinata will stop by at like 12:30 okay?" she asked. Sanaki yawned, "Sure thing. See ya later." She said and hung up.

Sakura found some clothes to wear and went outside. It was a nice, warm sunny day as she walked by the ramen shop. She decided to take a small detour and went through the old training grounds and she saw Gai's former team yet again practicing. Here they were 21 years old and they still want to train with a sensei, well at least Lee does. Sakura dropped down and she was welcomed with a hug from Tenten.

"Sakura-chan! How's it been?" she asked. "It has been a while since I've seen you. How did Sanaki do in the mission?" she asked being curious on her sister's behalf. "Sanaki? She was excellent! But we could have managed without her but still we got here earlier because of her. So I'm thankful. But then again Neji's attention was drawn towards her a little bit too much. I think she convinced him to take lead and go ahead instead of an over night wait." She said releasing her from the hug.

Sakura nodded as Lee and Neji came over. Neji looked at her, "Hey Haruno…it's a shame your sister is hotter than you." He said giving a tiny smirk. She gave a low growl and hugged Lee. Lee blushed and could only hug her back. "Sakura! I missed you so much!" he said. Sakura let go from the hug, "Lee let's go get some breakfast." She said and took his hand as they went back towards the ramen shop.

Lee and Sakura just began to finish up there bowl for the morning, and Sakura looked towards Lee and giggled a bit. He looked at her with a confused look on his face. "Um…Sakura…are you okay?" he said being very clueless. She took a napkin and wiped the side of his mouth of like he was a small child. She gave a small kiss on his lips afterwards. "Uh…wow Sakura…I...uh..." he was cut off by more of Sakura's kiss. It was a small chaste kiss but it was very lovely in Lee's put way. She pulled away and insisted on paying for her food but Lee said no and he paid for both their meals.

She got up and gave him a hug. "I have to go now okay. I just need to go pick up the rest of the gang and go to Tsunade-sama's office. I have something very special for you later." She said the last sentence in a seductive tone. She gave a wave and went off towards Hinata's Manor.

Lee looked at her in the distance, Did my cherry blossom just kissed me? Did she do what I think she did!? She did! Now I'm in for it… he thought and left the shop to go back to Gai and explain this whole mess that was a dream come true.

Sakura knocked on the door as the butler answered it. "Oh! Misses Hinata will be down in a moment. If you will please come in." he said in an ever graceful tone and bowed. He let her in as Sakura went to sit on the couch and wait for Hinata. Hinata came down the stairs her hair being long too but Hinata's appearance made Sakura envious. Sakura was busty but not as like Hinata or Ino. But none of their's could compare to her sister. Hinata asked Sakura if she knew anything about this. Sakura shook her head and the two went off to Ino's place. Which were basically her and Shikamaru's home.

By the time the two reached her house Ino was already asleep in bed with Shikamaru. Sakura opened the door a little and saw how peaceful they look. Shikamaru opened the crack of his eye. He sighed, "What a drag…" he said and gently shook Ino. "What--? What's going on?" she said rubbing her eyes. Sakura explained everything and she looked at the clock. "OH MY GOODNESS! GET UP! WE'LL BE LATE IF YOU DON'T GET UP!" she yelled and immediately Ino got up and was in the shower and dressed within ten minutes as Hinata and Sakura went back down stairs.

Ino came downstairs "Alright let's go you two! Sanaki will take forever if we don't hurry." She said. Shikamaru went behind her and gave her a hug. She turned around and kissed him. The kuniochi's left to Sanaki's house.

The busted through her door then put it back together to prevent her from yelling at them. The entered her room to see her sleeping on her bed on top of her covers. They awakened her and the processed happened again. As they all talked for a while they ran their way to Tsunade's office hoping not to be late.
