"Kakashi, I LOVE HER! Ever since we became team seven, even before, I've loved her. Her smile, her warm eyes, her cherry pink hair, I love it; everything; her. I know you think that I'm incapable of loving anyone but myself, but she's had a total effect on me. I know she doesn't see me that way, but I see her in everyway. Wait; don't take that the wrong way. You know what I mean."

Naruto rambled on and on to his sensei, completely oblivious to who had entered the room.

"Naruto…" Kakashi cautioned.

"I love the way she says 'YOU IDIOT!' when I've done something wrong. I love her amazing strength…"

"Naruto…she…"

"I know she doesn't love me back. I don't care. Well, I do, but…"

"Naruto." Kakashi put his hands on Naruto's shoulders and turned him around. Sakura stood in the doorway, tears in her eyes.

"Naruto…" Sakura said softly.

"How much did you hear…?" Naruto asked, turning a bright red.

"Every…word."

Sakura leaned on the doorway post and slid down into a sitting position. She smiled thoughtfully and looked down at her knees.

"I…I" she stumbled for words, and then burst into tears. Both of the stunned ninjas ran to her and knelt down.

"I didn't mean to freak you out, Sakura!" Naruto yelled, his face changing from bright red to pale white.

"That's…not it." Sakura said between sobs.

"I think what Sakura is trying to say is that she loves you, too, Naruto." Kakashi explained in words Sakura couldn't. A shocked Naruto looked down at Sakura, who was finally done and wiping her eyes.

"Is that true?" Naruto hoped with all of his heart it was.

Sakura nodded and smiled up at him. The happy boy collapsed from excitement. Sakura took the blond boy in her arms and held him close to her.

"Yes, I love you, Naruto."

No one's ever loved him the way she did. He's never loved anyone but her. Naruto was more than content in her arms.
