Nellie: 'Tis I, The Great Nubbers! 8D
Sasuke: ...What the? Nubbers?
Nellie: Yup. Like the name?
Sasuke: No.
Nellie: Whaaa? You mean. -pouts-
Sasuke: Hmph.
Nellie: Anyway, enjoy the story. :3


Sasuke walked slowly down the dirt path. Since it was spring, the cherry blossoms were in full bloom, and the warm wind was blowing the delicate pink petals of the blossoms everywhere. He heard running footsteps coming toward him, but kept moving slowly. He knew who it was.

Five seconds later, he was tackled by a 15-year-old, pink-haired kunoichi. After they got up, the kunoichi giggled and hugged him. Sasuke smiled and said, "Baka. I heard you from a mile away."

The kunoichi laughed and said, "Who are you calling baka? If you had heard me, you would've moved!" Sasuke hugged her back, and then sat on a bench.

"Sakura-chan, I would've moved if I wanted to. You know that. I let you have your fun." Smirked Sasuke. "Besides, it's kind of fun for me, too."

Sakura blushed and sat down next to the raven-haired shinobi. "You were taking one of your long walks, weren't you?" Sakura asked.

"Maybe", Sasuke replied. "Besides, I was gonna stop here to polish my weapons anyway…" Sasuke took out a kunai and a special cloth. He sprayed some lemon oil on it, and wiped the kunai with the cloth.

Sakura took off the weapon holder on her left leg. She then took out a kunai.

"Ngh…" Sasuke winced.

Sakura looked at Sasuke. He had a cut on his index finger, not too small, but not huge either. Sakura frowned. "A small cut doesn't hurt."

Sasuke smiled painfully. "Of course it doesn't. The lemon oil is making it sting really bad, though."

She took a look at the wound, and then summoned a simple first-aid kit. "I'm now a specialist in medical jutsu, and I owe it all to Tsunande-sama." She took out a band-aid, then took Sasuke's hand. Sasuke blushed as Sakura placed his finger in her mouth to clean the wound. And then Sakura gently wrapped his finger in the band-aid.

"I thought you hated the taste of blood", Sasuke pointed out.

Sakura smiled. "I do. Just yours tastes sweet. Like tomatoes, kinda."

Sasuke took the kunai and made a tiny cut on Sakura's cheek. She winced in pain as she felt the blade sever her skin. Blood dripped down her cheeks, and she blushed. Sasuke was gently licking the blood of her skin. "Sakura-chan. Your blood tastes like cherries."

Sakura giggled, and then leaned on Sasuke's shoulder. "Sasuke-kun, I remember the day our class was introduced to each other."

"…I do too.


It was a bright, sunny day. A perfect day to start school. The Konohagakure Ninja Academy had just begun its first day, and the class was being introduced to each other.

"…Haruno Sakura? Welcome! Please share some info that we might all need to know", spoke Iruka.

"My name is Haruno Sakura. My favorite colors are pink and red, and my favorite flower is the daffodil." Sakura said, a little shy.

Young Sasuke looked at Sakura, and immediately thought she was cute. He hoped that they would become friends. Then his name was called.

"Uchiha Sasuke! Please give us some information we should know about you." Iruka greeted.

Sasuke blushed a little, and said, "I like onigiri and the color blue…and the manga Rorouni Kenshin."

7-year-old Sakura smiled a little. He seems nice and really talented…she thought to herself. She wanted to be friends, too.


Sasuke woke to reality. Sakura had fallen asleep, and he decided he was a wee bit sleepy too. He picked Sakura up gently, and then laid her down in the shade of a sakura tree. He laid down next to her and fell asleep.

When Sasuke woke up, with a note next to his head. It read, "Thanks for the nap with me. It was really refreshing. I have a special gift for you, but you must find me first!

Love, Sakura

(Hint: Slurp, slurp! Long noodles and nice warm broth!)"

Sasuke sighed. "Geez, she can be annoying." He got up, stretched, and then walked to the city in search of the sweetest cherry blossom.
