A/N: What's Up, the ceiling obvious. The second chapter of Sakura's Birthday Present, in my mind is events that lead up to Sakura's 18th Birthday. The birthday is plan by my OC, Johnny X and Naruto Uzumaki with the help of the Hokage and their friends. Chapter 2 Memories;

A level Jounin kunoichi with a ponytail for her long pink hair with a red shirt and black tight pants walked to the Hokage tower for a meeting with the Hokage herself personally. It has been days after she was told that her friend was back to the village after two years of the other realm. She walked down a hall was too familiar to her. There were some of the greatest and saddest moments in those halls. The same hallway she met him for the first time. Even she was around five or so with her parents, the brunette was running from Ebisu with another outburst about Naruto being Hokage one day and that he would be just a ninja that's would be there when danger would occur. She giggled at the thought.

"Get back here, honorable grandson." The four-eyed tutor called out.

"Never and my name's Johnny." The kid ran faster with his chakra being focused to the soles of his feet. He smiled and when he looked back of him. Then he was looking at the floor the next. "Ouch" He heard soft sobs and turned to look for the sound, which was right behind him, a girl around his age. "Hey. Are you alright?"

The sobs were silent for a minute and her emerald green eyes look towards his blue-green eyes. The pink haired girl replied, "I'm fine but I just scraped my leg."

"Let me look at it." Johnny looked at her leg to see it bleeding slightly and thought if he should.

"What's the matter?" She questioned him because she wanted to know what he was thinking.

"Nothing but I can fix it up because I'm going to be the greatest ninja."

"A Hokage" She asked.

"Nope just be a ninja that's willing to help anyone when the job commands for it or when he thinks that he should step in." Johnny smiled. "Just hold still." He placed his hand over the scrape and focus onto the wound as well as not to hurt her. His chakra went from his hand to her wound and the wound was disappearing from her skin. "All done any better?"

"Much thanks."

"The name's Johnny." He pointed to himself. "Johnny X"

"Oh, I'm Sakura. Sakura Haruno"

"Nice to meet you, Sakura" Johnny helped Sakura up from the floor. She blushed slightly.

"And to you honorable grandson" She giggled. His cheeks were a bright red. "Or would rather go with 'Johnny'?"

"Johnny, please."

"Sakura, where are you?" A voice called out which was clearly female.

"Goodbye Johnny and thanks." Sakura place a kiss on his cheek.

"Bye" His cheeks were a little redder than before.

"Same old Johnny X" Sakura sighed. She remembered how they met and when she was little the thought that Johnny had a crush on her but not anymore. Unlike Naruto who would be a total idiot around her, he was different. He was calm around her and able to talk with her without thinking about what she liked to hear. He was becoming the ninja he wanted to be not the Hokage of the village but the ninja that you can count on without hesitation would be there to save anyone doesn't matter who they were. He saved her countless of times and saved each of one of the ninjas in the village as well. People would hear his name each time one of the only kids that become jounin in a short period of time and went to different places for missions and each time learning different people's views. A brunette and blonde stood in front of the Hokage. The brunette looking like he was bored without a doubt. He sighed. It's been two days since he came to the village. Hasn't had time to see the birthday girl and been hanging with Naruto and Sasuke on missions. They were chose because they work well together and would work faster than any team and all of the teams were home because of the party that they are planning.

"What would you do if she figures out that you are back, Johnny?"

"Isn't this to stay a surprise?" Johnny shook his head. He was the one who told a Jounin or Chuunin he couldn't remember but he told them to go tell Sakura Haruno that Hokage would like to see personally.

"Nar, you know I don't like secrets but I have a feeling that she knows already." He knew about Konohamaru telling her from his little brother. But he knew that he was going to be a surprise but wait until two days from now to say I'm Back was too long to wait. The four in the room heard a knock on the door and the Hokage respond with a come in. The soon to be nineteen years old walked in and saw the brunette that she met when she was five. She broke in happy, joy tears and ran towards him. Hugged the life out of him and he felt his body moved by itself. Her arms with around his neck and his arms were around her waist. It was silent for a moment but the ANBU calm her down.

"You're back." He nodded. Naruto was just shook his head at the two and still haven't told each other three simple words. "So you're back and you kept it from me." She pointed at the pair of Jounins. Both nodded.

"I don't get oh good to see you, Johnny but get questioned. That's very nice Sakura." The whole thing of sarcasm came out. A smile returned to her face. The whole thing happened in the matter of minutes but it seems like a lifetime. The three walked down the street in front of the Hokage Building. They saw one old and one new faces; Sasuke and Karin.

"Hey Johnny" Sasuke call out with oh great your back tone.

"Oh it's good to see you too." Johnny felt the sarcasm on the tip of his tongue.

"So you're that Johnny fellow." Karin said bluntly.

"And you must be Karin." They said their goodbyes and went to their different ways. The brunette walked through the village which was his childhood. He didn't know that he was heading the cemetery. But realized it too late, he started remember about what his family was and who was in it. His uncle, grandfather, father, mother, siblings, cousins and even his own best friend, Naruto plus everyone in the leaf village as his family without realizing it that Sakura might go beyond family. He heard hey out of nowhere.

"Hey yourself" He has heard voices in this ceremony once before which was after the day of Asuma's funeral.

"Stop with the sarcasm Johnny." Johnny knew the voice too well.

"Oh it's just you."

"Miss me?"

"I miss you every day. How's everyone?"

"Your grandfather has been watching you. Jiraiya is still laughing at you. As your godfather, I'm watching over you like a good godfather should."

"I missed your sense of humor, uncle."

"Also as I did of you." Johnny smiled and faced the voice without his deceased uncle sitting by his tombstone. The spirit lit a cigarette.

"You know those things would kill ya." The spirit chuckled.

"Why should it, I already dead." They both chuckled. Johnny looked up to the sky and remembered how he first met his unique ninja that he used and still does called uncle and godfather. Not the unique meeting but one of the ones that he couldn't or wouldn't forget.

Little three years old Johnny was excited on that very day. It wasn't his first time to the village as more like fifth or sixth time coming and going. He was with his mom, Ami Sarutobi at one point and now Ami X. Ami had dark long hair with brown eyes along with her signature smile. Little Johnny with his pacifier in his mouth was skipping through the village his mother not far behind. He stopped. She caught up. Pick him up.

"You're just like your father." She chuckled. Johnny hugged her as she walked to her brother's apartment. They got there is a matter of minutes and knocked on the door, it opened to show a young man with a cigarette lit in his mouth. "Put that out." She yelled at her younger brother with her child in her arms.

"Alright sis no needs to yell." The young ninja put it out and welcomed them in. Johnny ran to the couch and sat on it. He smiled being able to get up to on a couch. "Hey sport, how have you been?"

"Asuma meet Johnny, your godson. Johnny my sweet meet your uncle, Asuma"

His experience with his uncle was something that no one was going to take away from him or ever be replaced by another. Asuma was more help out with his ninja training than Ebisu ever would be. He chuckled and realized that his godfather's spirit wasn't there anymore. With a smile on his face, he went back his way to his apartment. He sighed and looked up again. The wind was blowing a storm.

"I been away too long." The words were caught by the wind.
