Sakura just held on for awhile and then opened her eyelids a crack just to make sure Ino was gone and let Sasuke go. "WHAT THE HELL?!" Sakura ignored him.

"I'm fairly disappointed." She said which was true. It was disappointing.

"What are you talking about?" He said.

"The kiss I fantasized over for years! It was disappointing. Good thing I'm not in love with you anymore that would have been crushing."

"Then why did you kiss me?!" Sasuke was caught off guard, and he was pissed off. What the hell did this have to do with Ino? He couldn't have missed the fact that Sakura had only kissed him when Ino showed up. Or the fact that Ino looked like someone had ripped out her heart and eating it in front of her.

Sakura didn't reply and grabbed Sasuke and dragged him out of there and back to her house. Sasuke was dying to know what was going on by then and asked, "Sakura what did Ino have to do with it?" Sakura just ignored him and took out some alcohol and poured it into a glass and started drinking. "You drink?"

Sakura looked up, "Yes. Surprising?"

"A little." Sasuke said and sat down. "I'm going to sleep" he said and walked upstairs.

"Leave the door open!" Sakura shouted, "If you don't you can sleep down here until I'm ready to sleep."

"Fine!" Sasuke yelled back. Not wanting to have to sleep downstairs.

Sakura stayed downstairs for the longest time drinking. She felt a whole lot of guilt, and something else tugged at her gut, perhaps regret? Sakura had to admit kissing Sasuke in front of Ino to make her go away was a bit harsh. Ino wouldn't have said anything in front of Sasuke. Sakura finally went upstairs to an already sleeping Sasuke; Sakura changed into her night clothes and crawled into bed.

Sasuke woke up first, he looked over at Sakura, and she looked like a wreck. Sasuke went downstairs to eat and wait for Naruto. Sakura followed him downstairs soon after, cleaned up and just sat at the table for awhile. When Naruto showed up Sasuke left and Sakura went back upstairs to sleep the day away.

Two weeks later.

Sakura and Naruto no longer had to watch Sasuke all day long only at night. Though they did keep there eye on him. Sasuke spent more and more time with Naruto, Sakura wondered what they were doing. Ino hadn't tried to approach her anymore, which relived Sakura.

Ino didn't want too see Sakura anymore, her heart every time she even looked at her. How could have Sakura fallen back in love with Sasuke? Ino decided that Sakura had never truly fallen out of love with him, just that distance and time had numbed those felling until he returned.

Ino was walking over to Naruto's hoping to get some help at the flower shop. Sometimes Naruto helped her, and in return she would go buy him a bowl of ramen. It was a simple friendship but a friendship nevertheless. Ino sometimes wondered if anyone bought Naruto a bowl of ramen he would be there friend

.

Now at his house Ino knocked on the door "Naruto?" he didn't answer but, Ino could her muffled voices inside. Being the nosey person she was Ino opened the door. And she couldn't help but gasp, because inside Naruto and Sasuke stood there arms wrapped around each other, making out.

Naruto and Sasuke froze, and turned to look at Ino also frozen, in the door way. Naruto was the first to recover, "Ino?! Oh my, you can't tell anyone! Please don't tell anyone." Ino ignored him and just looked at Sasuke.

"Ino… don't tell anyone!" Was all Sasuke could spit out.

"Sakura. What about Sakura." Ino thought horrified was he toying with her.

"What about her?" Sasuke was confused.

"You kissed Sakura."

"I did not." Sasuke quickly said as Naruto looked at him.

"Yes, you did at the dance."

"No, she kissed me!"

"And you- does she know about?" Ino looked from him to Naruto and back to Sasuke.

"No."

"So you didn't even tell her you don't love her!"

"She doesn't even love me!"

"Then why would she kiss you!" Naruto was so confused; he just stopped trying to make since of it and closed the door.

"Hell I don't know, when I asked her she wouldn't say! I hoped you would know, when you showed up she looked around franticly and the kissed me."

"So she doesn't love you?" Ino asked suspiciously.

"NO!"

"And you know this how?"

"She told me so!"

"Are you sure!"

"YES!" Sasuke yelled. He was surprised how Ino face lit up. "Why?"

"I got to go!" Ino yelled and opened the door ran outside,

"INO!" Naruto shouted.

"Don't worry I won't tell anybody!" she shouted back. She had to find Sakura and get her question answered. She stopped at Sakura's house she wasn't there. Ino ran all over town and couldn't find her where the hell could she be? Ino thought only one more place to check. Ino ran down a path taking turns to get her to the bench, the bench were so many years ago Sakura said she didn't want to be friends anymore.

There was the beautiful pink haired Kinochi. Ino ran and grabbed her before Sakura could get away. "No more waiting an answer now!"

"Let me go Ino!" Sakura screamed.

"Not tell you say whether you love me or not! No maybes or I don't knows" Ino said.

"I-I love Sasuke!"

"No you don't" Ino said, "you even told him so."

Sakura couldn't get away, she looked down ready to say no. She couldn't get the words out, they were a lie. The words were a lie. She looked at Ino surprised. "I love you?" Sakura asked, and then smiled, "I love you." Ino looked shocked herself. "Who knew? I love you!"

"I love you too, Sakura." Ino leaned over and kissed her, this time Sakura kissed back.
