Leon and Sakura woke up at 6:30 as usual. Sakura got up and went to the bathroom to take a shower. When she came back at about 6:45, Leon was still in bed.

"come on Leon, get up"

All she got was a dry cough in return.

"are you okay?" asked Sakura.

Another cough, but rougher this time.

"I'm going to get the thermometer"

She came back and handed the thermometer to Leon and he put it in his mouth. A minute later it beeped and Leon handed it down to Sakura from the top bunk.

"oh yikes!" cried Sakura "okay you're not going to school" the thermometer had read 103.5. Leon's parents had already left for a business trip and would not be back for a couple of weeks. Sakura picked up Leon off of the top bunk, and carried him to the soft luscious couch in front of the television.

"you stay here" not like he had another choice "while I get some Motrin. Do you want anything for breakfast? Even if you're sick you should eat something."

"a yogurt I guess" Leon said weakly.

Sakura brought Leon a yogurt and his Motrin.

"I'm going to call Inuyasha" Sakura said.

She dialed the number and Inuyasha's mom picked up.

"hello?" she said.

"hi, it's Sakura."

"oh hi Sakura, what can I do for you?"

"I just wanted to talk with Inuyasha"

"actually he's sick right now"

"that's odd, so is Leon."

"do you want me to bring Inuyasha to your house?"

"that would be good. I'm sure Leon would like to talk with somebody"

"I'll bring him right over."

"okay, bye"

"bye"

Sakura hung up.

Inuyasha was at Leon's house in a few minutes. Sakura walked him over to the couch on the other side of the room from Leon.

"you're lucky Inuyasha, Leon can't even move" Sakura told Inuyasha.

"poor guy"

Leon was asleep during their conversation. Inuyasha turned the TV on and sat there as his brain was liquefied by the glowing box of liquefaction. He fell asleep momentarily as Sakura came in with three bowls of chocolate ice cream. She woke up Inuyasha and Leon and they ate their ice cream. Later everyone was asleep in the den, Sakura was sitting on the floor wide awake a few minutes later. Leon and Inuyasha were still asleep. Sakura put her hand on Leon's forehead. It was still warm but not as bad as before. She moved her hand up to stroke his long dark brown hair.

"oh Leon, if you only knew half of what I felt for you…" she said.

Inuyasha was smiling under his blanket. He wasn't really asleep, he wanted to hear this. Leon moved a little. Sakura drew back but decided he should really know. Leon's eyes opened slowly into another pair of soft, gentle green eyes, just like his own.

"Leon I…" Sakura began. "well…"

Leon just smiled.

"you know" she said.

"of course" he said "just waiting for you to catch up"

Sakura was blushing madly.

"you want to know something Sakura"

"what?"

"I can heal myself. That's why my fever's gone down"

"so you aren't sick anymore?"

"not in the least"

There was an awkward silence.

"so I can do this?" she said drawing her face closer.

"I wondered when you would ask…"

They hugged each other and shared a long kiss. They had secretly loved each other for a long time and now they could express it. Then the doorbell rang. It was Sakura's friend, Hinata.

"I came to give you your homework because you weren't at school today"

"thanks Hinata! You want to come in for a while?"

"Sure!"

The two girls walked into the living room and saw Inuyasha and Leon with their cell phones.

"here's the best picture of…" Inuyasha and Leon had just noticed Sakura and Hinata at the doorway.

"picture of what?" asked Sakura.

She walked over and took Inuyasha's phone to see what the boys were talking about. When she saw it, Sakura just stared holes in the boys for a while.

"well, if you have these then I'll just have to…" Inuyasha and Leon were a little nervous. "get my phone so I can have them too!"

The three laughed while Sakura went to get her phone.

"what picture?" asked Hinata.

"it's alright boys, you can show her" Sakura said walking in with her cell phone.

Leon handed Hinata his phone and let her look at the pictures.

"aww, that's so cute! May I get them on my phone?"

"of course!" said Leon.

So everyone started sending pictures of Sakura and Leon's kiss back and forth.

And so another day in the Konoha village Ends.
