A/N: SOOOOO sorry that I didn't update on time!! My Internet was down, and I couldn't get the story to any other computer with working Internet, so it was kinda impossible.

If it's any reconciliation, however, Chapter 3 will be posted within the day! So, without further ado…

Oh wait! I forgot to include a disclaimer!

Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto, and I must say that if you thought I did then you're a complete and total dumb ass.

Chapter 2:

Sakura Haruno, now 15 years old, had just finished her shift in the hospital. It was dark, the hall lights were dimmed and there was no light coming from the rooms. She knew that she should probably go home and take a shower now, or she would just fall asleep (she always did have trouble staying up past 2:00 in the morning, and it was already 2:30,) but for some reason she couldn't leave.

Sakura, like Naruto, had changed a lot over the last three years. Having traded in her old outfit for black shorts, a white tank top, and a chunnin vest which she had dyed pink. She kept her hair up using the Hitae-ate (but she always kept the ribbon given to her by Ino tied around her arm.) Also, she had been taken under Tsunade's wing, and was turning out to be the most talented Med-nin of her generation. Due to the amount of practice she was getting training with Tsunade and working in the hospital, she had become much stronger, acquiring some of Tsunade's famed "Super-human strength,"

Anyway, back to the present situation. Sakura had been studying the book she was reading, in those dimly light hallways, for some time now. The book was ancient, over 150 years old. It was massive in size; the book was roughly 2x2 1//2. There were over 7000 pages; each page was filed to the brim with tiny print and diagrams. This book was everything. Every Med-jutsus known to man, every illness, which ones could be treated with chakra or not, how fast injuries killed someone, how much chakra is needed for certain wounds, a list of Medicinal herbs and another list of recipes to use them in. How to make Antidotes, how to make poisons, and all of this was only in the first chapter, which Sakura had, somewhere around when I said ' Medicinal herbs,' finished.

When Sakura got home to her little one room apartment (she had moved out of her mothers house only two months before,) the first thing she did was cross out another day on the calendar. " Only three more days, Naruto…"

A/N I know that this chapter is really short like the last one, but I promise the next one will be longer, and I'm gonna start using a lot of dialogue (which have been nearly non existent as of late,) Also, remember that it's gonna take a while before Naruto and Sakura get together. It's not gonna be one of those stories where Sakura starts crying about how much of a bitch she is, and Naruto goes " shhh, it's o.k." and the she falls in love with him, and The end. No. Not happening. They'll be together, but you have to be patient.

Anyway, I'll see you next chapter!
