A/N: Whoa. I'm like gonna save myself and go hide. Cuz right now, I'm pretty sure there are a lot of people who want to kill me.
Anyways, I thought this chapter ended really cute. Some emo Sasuke moments in there, some nosy Ino moments, and then the gullible NaruSaku moments!
Disclaimer: If I owned Naruto...EVERYBODY WOULD WEAR PINK JUMPSUITS!! Not even joking. Seriously.
Sakura had passed the final exams without missing a single problem, but Naruto on the other hand, just barely passed it. Naruto asked Sakura to tutor him so he would be ready for the next tests. Sakura looked out the window, it was snowing, and it was the middle of December. Christmas was in two days, and so was Ino's party. Naruto interrupted her thoughts. "Sakura-chan, how come you're so smart?!" Sakura turned to Naruto and giggled.
"Maybe you just need to be more smart!" She said while poking Naruto on the forehead. He rubbed his forehead in pain, man, Sakura-chan sure does pack a poke!
"Sakura-chan, you're everything I want in a girl." Sakura blushed.
"R-really? What would that be?" Naruto put his hands behind his head and layed down on his bed.
"Well, you're smart, pretty, kind, thoughtful, and fun. I really like hanging out with you, Sakura-chan." Sakura blushed madly after that.
"R-really?" Naruto nodded and closed his eyes. Sakura leaned down towards Naruto and kissed him on the cheek. It was a friendly kiss, nothing more than that. That caused Naruto to open an eye with suspicion.
"Sakura-chan?" Sakura giggled.
"That was really sweet of you." She sat back up and there was knocking at the door. "Come in." Sasuke walked into the room, he saw Sakura sitting next to Naruto, and that made him mad.
"Oh, Naruto, we have a meeting to attend." Naruto sat up.
"Um, Sakura-chan, do you think you can help me some other time?" Sakura nodded and stood up.
"Catch you later, Naruto!" Sakura then walked down to her dorm, which was only two doors down from Naruto's.
She walked in and sat down on her bed and checked her mail. Sakura had one new message from Ino. "Hey, what were you doing at Naruto's?" Sakura froze, did Ino know what just happened? Sakura feriously typed a reply.
"Uh, I was just tutoring him. Nothing else!" But she knew that Ino wasn't going to buy that.
"Oh really? What else happened?" Sakura sighed.
"I'll tell you later!" She then shut off her laptop and closed the lid. Sakura layed down on her bed and thought. Christmas was two days away, Ino was having a party in two days as well. Just what was Ino planning to do at that party? Sakura fell asleep shortly.
--
There were knocks on Sakura's door, she sat up and walked to the door to see a very curious Ino. "Ok, Sakura, spill. What else happened?"
Sakura told Ino about how Naruto just barely passed the final exams and that she offered to help him. She then talked about what Naruto told her, that she was everything he wanted in a girl. That made Ino go all googly eyes and what not. Sakura told her that she gave Naruto a friendly kiss on the cheek, and she meant friendly. "Naruto obviously took the kiss like it wasn't supposed to be friendly." Ino laughed.
"Well, that's what you get for even kissing him! Oh come on Sakura, we all know that Naruto has a huge crush on you!" Sakura put her hands on her hips.
"Well, I don't believe that! He's my friend, and I hope he doesn't want to be anything more than that!" Ino shook her head.
"Oh well. Anyways, my party is going to be at a club down the road, 'cause we all know that my dorm is way to small to hold my glamorous party!" Ino stated with a smile.
"Um, Ino, what about the sleepover part?" That made Ino's face go pale.
"I forgot about that... I have to go and plan!" And with that, Ino ran off down the hallway. Sakura shook her head and walked back into her room. She heard some banging from down the hall, Sakura peeked her head outside to see what was going on. It sounded like it was coming from Naruto's room, so she ran down to Naruto's door and put her ear to the door.
"Naruto, you knew how I felt! Why would you go behind my back and do that?!" Sakura could tell it was the angsty Uchiha's voice. Something crashed and a ripping sound could be heard.
"Sasuke, just shut the hell up! It's not my fault!" Sakura kept quiet to hear more.
"I don't care! It happened, and that's all I care about! You knew! You knew!" What did Naruto know? Sakura put her hand on the door knob, but stopped herself from twisting it open. She sighed.
"Sasuke, it's not my fault!" Sakura knew she had to. She twisted the knob so the door would open, and she saw Sasuke standing in front of Naruto, literally ripping his hair out. And Naruto was trying to get out of Sasuke's path.
"N-Naruto?" Sasuke turned around to see the pink-haired girl in the doorway.
"Sakura, what are you doing here?!" Naruto chuckled.
"She probably could hear the noise you were making while breaking my shit!" Sakura had terror written across her face.
"Naruto, what happened?"
"Nothing, Sakura-chan. Sasuke is just having a fit." The Uchiha turned to Naruto and glared at him.
"Oh, since when was I having a fit?" Naruto cocked his head to a side.
"Well, excuse me. But who was it that was throwing my stuff around the room? And who was it that was yelling at me for something I didn't do?" Sakura just shook her head.
"What didn't you do? Just tell me, or I'm not leaving."
"The bastard here is pissed just because you gave me a kiss on the cheek." Sakura's face turned red. "I tried to explain to him that it was your way of thanking me for the compliment. But that just made him even more mad." Sasuke crossed his arms.
"Sakura, is that true? And what did Naruto compliment you on?" Sakura was still frozen in one spot.
"Y-yeah. He just said I looked pretty today. I didn't really know what I was doing really.. But it's no reason to throw stuff at him! So, Sasuke, please just leave. Everyone knows that I used to be on the Konoha wrestling team." Sasuke nodded and left the room, but he stopped at the doorway.
"Naruto, if I catch you doing anything that I know you shouldn't be doing, I will not hold back." Sakura sighed once he was fully gone.
"Sakura-chan! That was amazing! I couldn't even make him leave!" Sakura was still in shock that Naruto told Sasuke what had happened.
"Why was he so mad? And how did he find out?"
"Well, the bastard likes you a lot, and I mean a lot!" Sakura walked over and sat next to Naruto on his bed.
"Oh really?"
Naruto nodded, "Yeah, and he found out from Ino or something."
"Ino, I can't believe she told him! Why would she anyways?" The blonde shrugged.
"I don't know. Well, I know how much you like spending time with me, but I'm tired and I have to get some sleep, or else I might go crazy!" Sakura giggled and stood up.
"Oh alright. I'll see you tomorrow at breakfast, ok?" Naruto had already closed his eyes, but he nodded.
"Ok."
--
As the alarm started ringing, Sakura rolled over in her bed and covered her head with a pillow. But, the alarm got quite annoying, so Sakura gave in and got up for breakfast. She put on some slippers and grabbed her keys to go and eat. Since it was break, she didn't have to get dressed. After grabbing a bowl of cereal, Sakura sat down with Naruto and the others at their usual spot. "Hi, Naruto!" Naruto turned to the pink-haired girl.
"Hey, Sakura-chan!! Oh, can you close your eyes for a second??"
"Now wh-" Naruto cut her off.
"Please?" Sakura sighed and nodded, causing Naruto to smile. She closed her eyes and Naruto stood up, fumbled around in his pocket to finally find a small box. He took off the lid to show a silver necklace with a Konoha Leaf. There was also a small ring attached to the chain. Naruto walked behind Sakura and put the necklace on her, then he moved the hair that was under the chain, out of the way. "Ok, you can open your eyes. Merry Christmas!"
Sakura opened her eyes while Naruto was sitting back down. She looked down at the necklace. It was a silver Konoha leaf charm, and there was also a silver ring hanging on the chain. She examined the ring. "Read the inside of it." The blonde stated. Sakura looked at the inner part. Best Friends Forever, Sakura and Naruto. She smiled and hugged Naruto.
"Aww! That is soo cute!! But, Naruto, Christmas is tomorrow..."
"Yeah, I know, I wanted to be the first one to give you your present!!" Sakura smiled.
"Aww. That's really sweet. You don't get your gift until tomorrow!" Naruto just nodded and tried to escape the death hug. Sasuke walked over and noticed Sakura hugging Naruto, which made him mad.
He cleared his throat, "Um, Naruto. Sorry to break up this moment, but I thought I told you to not do anything that you shouldn't." Sakura pulled away and looked at the angry Uchiha. Naruto then turned to Sasuke.
"Sorry, Sasuke. But you have to find something else to do, besides stalking Sakura-chan and I every second you've got. I was just giving her an early Christmas gift." Sasuke crossed his arms.
"A hug?" Sakura giggled.
"No, he got me this necklace!!" Sasuke's eyes widened at the sight.
"H-how could you afford that, Naruto? Those leaves are really rare and expensive!!" Sakura turned to Naruto.
"How expensive was this?"
"It was my mom's she said to give it to a really nice girl. And that would be Sakura-chan." Sakura blushed and Sasuke just stormed off.
"Thank you." Naruto grinned.
"No problem!"
A/N: Mwahahahahaha! Sasuke was EBIL in this chapter. I didn't like him. I actually wrote this whole story a really really really long time ago. Like back in January. Lolz.
