"That's a lie" Sakura practically yelled as she pocked him in the stomach and said "If follow me if you want to find out." she said playfully. Winking.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

He quickly got up to follow her after she was over the hill. When he reached the top she was gone. Then she popped up in front of him hanging upside-down and said "BOO!" in an attempt to scare him. She fell out of the tree and landed on top of Sasuke.

They were both laughing when she smiled and looked down she made a squeak because of there position. She quickly scrambled off of him and both turned away blushing trying to hide it to each other.

Then Sakura knelt down by Sasuke and poked his chest, then she said "Well are you just gonna sit there or are you gonna catch me?"

Sasuke looked up at her and furrowed his brow. "What is your so called idea any way?" he asked curiosity written all over his face.

"You'll just have to catch me to find out." She said turning around darting down the hill.

So he decided to chase her. She was at the foot of a lake when she said "Catch me if you can."Then she ran up another hill. Sasuke noticed that she was heading up to a cliff so he decided to get there first.

When Sakura got up the hill she looked around and there was no sign of Sasuke.

Sasuke sat behind the bush and then he heard a pair of light footsteps. He peeked from behind the bush.

Sakura started to take her red dress off. Sasuke's face matched a tomato, if that was possible. He watched as his mind screamed "what the hell is she doing!!"

Sakura was wearing a emerald bikini that matched her eyes perfectly. Since there was no sign of Sasuke Sakura turned to run off the cliff. As Sasuke stood up from behind the bush to talk to her she accidently knocked him off the cliff to.

"Where did you come from?" she asked as they hit the water. When she resurfaced she saw a soaking wet Sasuke. He splashed water at Sakura so she splashed back.

"I see is this what you were talking about swimming?" asked Sasuke.

Sakura nodded and stood up on the water using the chakra in her feet. "Hey you want to jump off the cliff again?"she asked looking down at Sasuke. Sasuke nodded getting on top of the water eyeing her figure. He was secretly enjoying the view of her body inside the back of his mind. She smiled then they walked to the top of the cliff.

Sasuke took his shirt and pants off so now he was in his black boxers now. Sakura starred at his left shoulder near were Orochimaru placed the curse seal on Sasuke during the chunin exams.

Sakura felt tears in the corners of her eye's but she pushed them back and forced a smile. She walked up to him and pushed him off the cliff. Sasuke trying to keep his balance grabbed the closest thing to him, which was Sakura forcing her down with him. They hit the water with a big splash.

When they surfaced Sakura swam over to Sasuke and pushed him under the water. While under water Sasuke grabbed her legs and pulled her under to. When they surfaced Sakura said "It's kind of cold now want to get out now? Sasuke nodded as they swam to the shore.

Sakura gathered sticks and with the help with one of Sasuke's fire jutsu's they made a small camp fire. They sat side by side and Sakura was poking the fire with a stick when she broke the silence between them. They had put a change of clothes on. Sakura was in a pair of black sweatpants and a white tank top. Sasuke was in black sweat pants and a black shirt.

"Hey Sasuke why did save me earlier today from that ninja?" she asked with curiosity in her voice.

Sasuke looked at her then at the ground for a moment and said "Kabuto had you and I couldn't let you stay in a danger zone unconscious and defenseless."

"Why did you break the lock on the chain's and take care of me when I passed out, and fight Itachi when you knew he could have killed you?" it sounded like she was trying to choke back tears.

Sasuke looked at her and picked her head up and she had tears streaming down her face. "Because Sakura I care about you and I didn't want you to get hurt."He said looking straight into her eyes.

Sakura looked back into his eyes and he pulled her close to him. She was sitting between his legs and he held her waist. He rested his head on her shoulder and said in a soft tone "Sakura I love you."

Sakura was taken back when she turned her head to him and before she could say anything Sasuke leaned his face towards hers and they locked lips. Sakura was shocked at his antics and kissed back.

He leaned in more and she leaned back as he licked her bottom lip she opened her mouth and he explored it mesmerized in how sweet she tasted. When they pulled back for a much needed breath she said "I love you to." Sakura leaned back into his chest and fell into a deep sleep.

Sasuke starred at her as she took slow even breathes. Sasuke had her in a tight embrace. He watched the fire slowly die down. He was starting to get tired and watched as the stars shinned and the moonlight gave Sakura an angelic glow.

He got comfortable and slowly drifted into a peaceful sleep.

The forest was very quiet and there was a figure in the tin the shadows. He grinned evilly and watched them quietly and patiently.
