Then next day was Monday. A school day for the kids of Konoha. Sasuke woke up to the smell of something good in the air. He grabbed some pants and headed down to the kitchen where a feast consisting of pancakes, waffles, bacon, eggs, and hashbrowns were awaiting him. He looked at the clock, 6:30 a.m. "You must have gotten up early to make something like this." Sakura didn't reply so he looked around for her. She had her head on the table, sound asleep. He smiled and knelt down, kissing her gently. There was a silent moment before the doorbell rang out. Naruto could be heard outside, "Sakura! Im here to pick you up!"

Sasuke shook Sakura lightly, "Narutos here."

Sakuras head popped up, "Ahh! It's that late?!" she bolted for the door, "Well hello there my adorable *Atsui Kitsune."

"I love you." Naruto pulled Sakura in for a surprise kiss.

She looked taken aback for a second, "you've never said that to me before? Is it a special occasion?" He took her hands, "Just another fine day with you as my girlfriend!" Sasuke rolled his eyes, hands clenched.

"Youre still in your pajamas silly!" Naruto pointed to her clothing.

Sakura looked down, "haha. I'll be right back."

"I can help." Naruto said smugly, following her up the stairs. Sasuke went to step in but Sakura shot him a look, "I would love that."

Sasuke was not happy all morning. It was different from other days, but he didn't quite understand why. He was falling for Sakura faster and faster each day it seemed. He couldn't stop thinking about what Sakura and Naruto were doing every second of the day and how we couldn't do any of that with her. Sakura noticed and pulled him aside in the hallway just as lunch started, "What's wrong?

"I just hate not being able to..." his hands slid around to her back. He leaned in for a kiss,but she pushed him away and looked around quickly, "Not here. You know that? Whats wrong with you today?"

A rumble built up in Sasuke's throat and he grabbed her wrist tightly. Sakura cried out in pain while being pulled towards the janitorial closet. People were staring and whispering but Sasuke payed no attention. He shoved her into the closet and shut the door behind them, "You are mine now." He pushed her up against the wall causing some mops and brooms to tumble to the ground. He placed his knee in between her legs while his hands occupied her chest. Sakura blushed profusely, "No! Stop it! Only at the house!"

"I can't wait. Seeing everyone else able to touch and hold you. I just want that too." He planted a kiss on her, slowly moving down to her chest. Sakura squirmed as his lips moved to underneath her skirt.

"Sasuke! Narut-" she corrected quickly, hoping he hadn't notice, "people might see us."

That made Sasuke stop. He stood up and turned away from her, "Hes just a decoy. He doesnt matter." All of a sudden the door was opened to reveal a surprised janitor. Sasuke huffed and pushed past the staff member. Shikamaru happened to pass at that moment and waved just as Sakura exited the closet. His eyes followed her as she chased Sasuke down and put her hand in his. They entwined their fingers quickly, then separated. Sakura heading towards Shikamaru.

"Hey *Cherry Girl~ Anything Wrong?"

Sakura looked up at him and sighed, "It feels like the whole world is against me."

"Does it have anything to do with your broth-" he cleared his throat, "step-brother?"

"What? No..." She looked around uncomfortably, "well, better find Naruto. Hes probably wondering where i'm at."

"Yeah. See you around Cherry Girl." he watched her disappear before shaking his head, "Something is definitely up. and I'm gonna find out what."

After school Naruto picked up Sakura out front, "Let's do something!"

"Like what?" Sakura smiled and put her arms around his middle.

He thought for a second, "Swimming."

She pulled back and looked at him curiously, "Swimming? At the community pool? Id love to! but is it weird to do that as an after school date?"

"Never." he smirked, "not if i get to see you in your bathing suit."

She blushed, "I have to run home then. Ill meet you there."

When she arrived at the house,it was dark and silent. She dropped her stuff and ran up the stairs. Her room was a mess of clothes by the time she found the perfect bathing suit. It was a white one piece with the sides cut away to reveal lovely curves. She threw on some shorts and grabbed a towel. There was the sound of a door opening and closing. Sakura called down, "i'll be there in a second Naruto! And i'm pretty sure you will like my bathing suit. I chose it to your taste."

She bounded down the stairs and struck a pose. There was a whistle, but it didn't belong to Naruto. Sasuke smiled at her, "looking good." It then disappeared and was replaced by a cold stare, "and all for him, huh?"

Sakura frowned, "For us...being with Naruto so we can be together Sasuke. You know that."

"Really now? Because it feels like you are starting to enjoy him being around."

"I am not!" She blushed, "i have to meet him at the pool. Be back later. Don't wait up." She went to leave but Sasuke grabbed her arm, "You are mine."

That set her off, "It's not as if you own me. I can do what I please." With that, she slapped his hand away and stormed out.

Sakura and Naruto had a blast. When Naruto dropped her off afterwards he kissed her passionately. When she started to kiss back, Sasuke words echoed in her mind...

"...you are starting to enjoy him being around."

She gasped and pushed him away, "night my Atsui Kitsune."

As she entered the house, her knees gave in and she sunk to the floor, "no. I am not falling for him. I love Sasuke and nobody else." She half stumbled, half dragged her way up to Sasuke's bed. Pulling herself in and wrapping his arms around herself, "Now this is what I love...More than anything."


Author Notes:

*atsui kitsune= I looked it up in an online dictionary so im not even sure if thats the right tense and such. but it supposedly means 'Hot Fox'. If you're an anime fan, im pretty sure you got the fox part.

*Cherry Girl= Shikamaru is not referring to her as a virgin. He is simply leaving out the whole 'blossom' part and just calling her Cherry.

(Also...if anyone has any cute pet names Naruto can call Sakura, much appreciated. Im at a total block.~Thank you!)
