With being back home for a long time, and being back with his faithful Team 7, Sasuke had made it to Anbu rank, and at age 18. It was late at night, and Sasuke was just headed back from his S-rank assassination mission. He jumped through the trees with speed; his muscular arms glistened with sweat in his sleeveless uniform. It was so late when he got back; he gave his report to Lady Tsunade, and then made his way on the path to his apartment. He decided before though he would visit his girlfriend Sakura, for which their relationship they kept secret. He gazed at her through her balcony window, seeing that she was already asleep. He swiftly appeared into her room and lightly shook her awake.

"Sakura." he whispered.

"Sasuke? What are you doing here?" she asked sleepily.

"I just got back from my mission, I wanted to see you." he said. He removed his mask that resembled a lion and gave her a sweet kiss. He broke away and walked back to her window.

"Wait, don't go Sasuke, stay with me tonight. Please?" Sakura asked with pleading eyes. Sasuke smirked and went back to her side as she cuddled in his strong arms.
