Who's That Kissing Sakura Under The Mistletoe

December 23

If looks could kill everyone in Konoha would be dead. Standing in front of Sakura was a large blown up picture of her, kissing her mystery man. Except the picture of the man's face was blacked out. She groaned. This was perfect. Completely and utterly perfect. At the top of the picture it read in big bold letters:

Who's That Kissing Sakura Under The Mistletoe?

Skimming down the picture and to the bottom she continued to read.

Uzumaki Naruto

Hatake Kakashi

Sai

Uchiha Sasuke

Vote now! Find out what rumors are true at the festival!

The pinkette grinned her teeth together as she sat down at the bench that sat in front of the poster. She looked around the town seeing same of the picture posted all over town. Figures Konoha would have nothing to do now that the war was over that they just had to harass someone.

"Nice picture."

"Can it," she said, glaring at her best friend who stood behind her admiring the picture.

"I think it's a great idea," Ino joked. "I mean… it gives everyone something to look forward to for the festival," Sakura rolled her eyes.

"I so do not need this right now," she said, standing up. "I'm going to Tsunade-shishou,"

Ino smiled. "Okay, I'm off to find a new date. Genma didn't work out… if you know what I mean…" the blonde sighed.

"You mean he blamed… His problem on the cold?" Sakura laughed.

"Yeah yeah yeah, keep picking on me. At least my love life isn't a billboard the size of your forehead."

"What was that?" Sakura glared to find her blonde friend gone. Sakura sighed before moving to make her walk to the Hokage office. It took all she had not to demolish a building or two on her way there with all the staring that was going on. She had never been so happy when she opened the door to her shishou's office.

"Sakura! Great idea with the billboard! The villagers love it!" Tsunade smiled as she took a sip of her overly spiked eggnog. Which was something Shizune couldn't take from her. Sakura rolled her eyes.

"I can't believe your allowing this Shishou." Sakura sighed before moving to the window. She breathed on it before drawing a heart on the window. Tsunade smiled.

"Yes well, as long as everyone is paying attention to you… Shizune won't suspect a thing!" Tsunade laughed loudly.

"Maybe you should be quitter or she'll hear your diabolical plan," Sakura offered. Tsunade covered her mouth quickly before giggling. Sakura rolled her eyes before laughing as well.

"Yes yes yes, Well don't tell," the older woman giggled. "But I have Lee, Gai and Naruto helping with the prank!" She yelled the last part. Sakura had to resist the urge to laugh.

"Okay… Tsunade-shishou… you enjoy that prank. I'm going to go lock myself in the apartment until tomorrow night," Sakura said with a wave before leaving the office.

She shivered slightly when she reached the outside. Maybe locking herself in her apartment wouldn't be a bad idea. "How's your day going?" she looked up to see Sasuke. She smiled.

"Good good, yours?" she asked.

"Can't complain," he said with a shrug. "Look…" he scratched the back of his head. "I… I was wondering if… you would help me with some of the decorations for the festival…?"

Sakura smiled. "What did your genin team set fire to everything?" she inquired. Sasuke had recently become a jonin instructor which was nice considering he was extremely good with children. It didn't help that two of the three of his genin team were huge pyrotechs.

"Yes… well… not yet," he smiled slightly. "That's why I was going to ask you?"

Sakura laughed loudly. "Okay, I'll help," she smiled. Sakura's smile instantly faltered when she noticed how many villagers were watching her. She glared causing everyone to look away. Sakura followed Sasuke until they reached the main street that had been closed off for preparations.

"Kyo! Stop! Sasuke-sensei said we didn't need fireworks!" A young blonde girl was yelling at a dark haired boy. Sasuke growled in annoyance.

"If you light a single firework I'm going to flip shit," Sasuke yelled running to his students.

"NOW!" Kyo yelled. The three of Sasuke's student's began to throw small poppers at Sasuke causing him to dance. "Dance Sasuke-sensei! Dance!" The Kyo boy yelled. It took all Sakura had not to laugh.

"Damnit Kyo! That's it! You three! Laps around the village!" Sasuke yelled.

"Aww… Sensei. You're no fun." The three said before walking away to go run laps. Sakura could have sworn she heard one of them whisper about how 'it worked every time'.

"I take it you like being a sensei?" Sakura asked, walking over to one of the boxes of decorations.

"I supposed, it helps me get ready for the day I finally have children," he winked at her causing her to blush.

Sakura shock her head as she walked away from the finished stage that was perfectly decorated for the festival tomorrow night. Her cheeks flushed slight from Sasuke's flirting. She smiled before looking up at the slightly gray sky. Maybe it would snow this year. She stuffed her hands into her pockets. Now she would go lock herself in her apartment.

She rounded the street corner to almost run head on into Sai, his hands were filled by a large brown bag. "Oh! Sakura," he smiled. "I was looking for you," Sakura smiled.

"Hi Sai, what's up?" she asked.

"I was wondering, if you would like to come over. I need your help on something?" he smiled, Sakura smiled. Sai's once fake smile's had recently become more real. He was finally starting to get the hang of really showing emotions. Sakura was so proud at how much he had grown since they had first met.

"Yeah sure! Only if it's warm," she joked.

"This is where I laugh, correct?" Sakura laughed loudly. Well… he was still a work in progress.

"Yes Sai," she smiled cheekily as the two made their way down the street. On lookers watching with keen interest. Sakura sighed in relief once the door to Sai's apartment was shut. She wasn't quite sure if it was a good thing or a bad thing. Of course she was finally away from the on looking gaze of the villagers. But now since they were behind closed doors it left it up to those same villagers to think of what they were doing.

Sakura smiled when the heat of the house warmed her to the bone. She slowly shrugged off her coat and hung it on the coat rack. She took in a long relaxing breath savoring the smell that was Sai. It was a wonderful scent that was a mix of ink and mint. She turned around to face him, she watched with steady eyes as he pulled out the paint supplies from the brown bag and placed it on the table.

"So, what is it that you needed me for?" she asked, walking up behind him. He smiled.

"A Christmas present for you-know-who." He winked causing Sakura's face to heat up.

"Not you too," she groaned. Sai laughed lightly.

"I need you to go pose, so I can draw you."

"Me?" she asked, her face bright. He nodded.

Sakura sighed in relief once she shut Sai's door behind her. A large blush on her face. Yup today was not going anywhere near what she had planned. At least now she was going home. She shivered as a gust of wind blew through the streets.

"Sakura-chan!" And now she would never be going home. She turned around to find Naruto running towards her. She smiled and waved. "I'm glad I was able to find you. Wanna go with me to get ramen?" he asked.

"Well Naruto… I was actually on—" she stopped mid-sentence. His face almost begging her to go out. She sighed. "You know what. I'd like that." She smiled. She watched as Naruto silently cheered to himself before the two were on their way to Ichiraku. She laughed a little when Naruto opened the door to the stand for her.

"Thank you Naruto,"

"Anything for you," he winked. Sakura rolled her eyes as she moved to sit down at the bar.

"Anything for me, eh?" she asked looking at him. She turned and faced the older man. "Bottle of sake please!" Naruto laughed as he sat down next to her. "So Tsunade-shishou says you have two have some diabolical plan?" she asked.

"Shh. Don't tell anyone!" Naruto said. He smiled when a large bottle of sake was placed in front of them. "I'll have a bowl or pork ramen,"

"Miso for me," Sakura said. "So how did the mission go?"

"Good good," he said pouring two glasses for the two of them. "Tsuande-baa-chan says I should live up all the missions I can, soon I'm going to be in the village all the time," Naruto grinned.

Sakura laughed as she drank her cup quickly. Oh yeah, she needed this drink. "I take it your up for a promotion?" Sakura winked causing Naruto to blush.

"It's not official. But I'm pretty sure it's gonna happen soon." He smiled.

It wasn't long until the two were filled with ramen and sake. And the two were stumbling down the night streets of Konoha. "You know! This Christmas is going to be awesome!" Sakura smiled, looking up at Naruto who nodded with her. The two stumbled a few more times before they looked up to find Kakashi standing in front of them a look of amusement on his face.

"Good night you two?" he asked. The two laughed.

"Always Kakashi-sensei." Naruto smiled. Kakashi chuckled.

"Why don't I take Sakura home, Naruto can you make it home on your own?" Kakashi asked.

"Yeah, I'll be good. Night Sakura-chan." Naruto said before kissing her check, he turned away from the two and started to drunkenly make his way home.

Sakura giggled as she moved to hold on to Kakashi. "How was your day?" he asked bending down in front of the pinkette. She fell forward slightly onto his back where he gripped her legs and stood up carrying her on his back.

She laughed. "Well, I got hit on by Sasuke. Something about children. Then I got painted by Sai. Only to drink with Naruto. All and all… I'd say it was a pretty productive day." She said. Kakashi stopped when he reached Sakura's door. He turned slightly so he could hold her with one arm. Reaching up to her door frame he ran it across it until finding her key. He unlocked the door. He waited until the door was shut behind him before lowering her to her feet.

"Thanks for walking me home Kakashi," she smiled before turning the lights on in the living room.

"You know I would gladly do it." He locked the door behind him.

"Kakashi?" he turned around to watch her slowly strip in front of him driving him completely crazy. He watched her with hungry eyes until her bra slipped from her shoulders. He swallowed hard as she stood in front of him with nothing but a pair of underwear. She smirked knowing she had him. She played with hem of her underwear before slowly slipping out of them. Before they could touch the ground Kakashi was on her.
