The Village was chilly as winter settled in. Emerald eyes followed along the sparkly aura of ice and snow. Prickling wind brushed against bare skin of the young viewer, and tasselled hair waved as the breeze guided it through the air. It was colder then usual. Sakura noticed that she could not see any grass lying around, but rather layer upon layer of thick ice and snow. It was going to be hard to get around.

"Sakura?"

Sakura quickly spun around to look at a figure standing behind her. It was Naruto.

"Heh, hi Sakura chan! Luckly Tsunaide did not have any future plans for a winter mission!" Naruto nervously laughed as he rubbed the back of his neck.

Sakura paused for a bit before replying. The mood tensed.

"yeah." Sakura quietly replied looking at the snow, away from Naruto.

"Sakura.. Are you ok?" Naruto whined seeing his friend in such a mood.

Sakura tuned him out for a bit longer until she noticed something. A tall slender figure walked up towards the two ninjas. Sakura's frown soon turned into a bright smile as she seen who it was.

"Kakashi Sensei!" Sakura yelled with a wave in her arm. Naruto turned his head quickly and smiled.

"Yo!" Kakashi responded, his eye crinkling with a hidden smile.

Sakura dashed up to her former teacher. Naruto ran to catch up to the two, only to slip on the ice.

"Naruto, you have to be more careful." a familiar voice sighed making Sakura and Naruto jump.

"Sasuke!" Naruto yelled as he attempted to hug his best friend. But Sasuke kept him out of arms grasp.

"tch."

Sakura then looked up as her sensei smiling. She hasn't seen him in almost a week and she was always happy when he was around. His eyes suddenly made contact and she suddenly pretended to be looking at something behind him, her face the color of her red shirt.

Kakashi suddenly nudged her arm. This startled Sakura and her face turned ever darker.

"Sasuke common!" Naruto yelled as he pulled Sasuke towards the huge snow bank. "Lets make a fort!"

"Naruto, we aren't 12 anymore." Sasuke replied harshly. Breaking away from Naruto's pull.

"Aww common, live a little!" Naruto laughed as he pulled Sasuke back into his arms and started to drag the dark haired boy away.

Sakura chuckled as she watched the two boys start to dig into the mount of snow, throwing it at each other in the process.

"Lets go Sakura." Kakashi whispered as he looked down at the pink haired kunoichi, putting his arm around her shoulder.

Sakura's eyes widened at this in awe.

"Uh uh o-ok!" She answered as her heart skipped a beat. "Where to?" She asked, he hand now covering her dark red face.

"To see Tsunaide Sama of course." Kakashi said with an eyebrow arched. "Don't you remember she asked for us to come by today to pick up some papers."

Sakura replayed the lines Kakashi said in her head. How embarrassing it was for her to forget! Her face was at its darkest and her knees started to feel weak.

"Oh, oh right!" Sakura said nervously laughing loudly.

"Sakura, are you ok?" Kakashi frowned, repeating the same line Naruto had asked Sakura earlier that morning.

"Uh, yes." Sakura said with a sigh. "I'm just a little tired that's all!" A smile ran across her face.

Why am I so stupid to forget! Sakura's mind raced as she played back what just happened over and over again.
