Chapter 4

They landed with a small and graceful thud with Kazama still standing sure footedly.

Well he's obviously a ninja, nice… Inner Sakura giggled.

"Alright!" Kazama cried out falling backwards so he was sitting on the ground and she was in his lap. She unhooked her arms from around his neck but he kept his arms firmly around her waist, "was that an adrenaline rush or what!?!" Kazama asked eyes flickering with excitement. Sakura nodded she couldn't believe he just did that or that he was still holding onto her so tightly.

She looked into his eyes they were still flickering with the excitement of jumping out the window, "so you're still going to show me around right Sakura?" Kazama asked eagerly, Sakura couldn't speak, she couldn't figure this guy out. It was weird, it was like she felt like she had forced feelings for him. Besides, she had just met him. But she probably was just reading too much into her feelings, it was probably just a side effect of not seeing Sasuke lately.

"Aw, please?" Kazama asked nuzzling his head against her shoulder and neck, "please, please, please, please…" Kazama asked his grip tightening on her waist.

"Alright, ok I'll show you around," Sakura laughed putting her hands on his chest and pulling away a little.

"Hey," Kazama asked looking across the road with a look on his face, "Do you know those guys? There staring at you."

Sakura followed Kazama's gaze to across the road to see a glaring Sasuke and an open mouthed Naruto. She looked back at Kazama only to realize the horrifying truth that she was still in his lap and he still had his arms around her. She quickly pulled away and got up and helped him up, she grabbed him by the wrist and tugged him across the street so she could introduce him.

"Hey Naruto, hey… Sasuke," Sakura stammered trying to act normal. Naruto grinned eagerly at her and Kazama but Sasuke kept glaring at her. "I'm pretty sure you guys remember this guy, he was the one that you guys helped get back to Konoha. His name's Kazama Odagiri."

"Oh yeah, hey so I guess your feeling better. I mean you gotta be if you're jumping out windows with Sakura wrapped around you," Naruto laughed nudging Sasuke with his elbow. Sasuke pulled a face and stepped away from him focusing his signature ' I don't trust or like you' glare at Kazama.

"You saw that?" Sakura asked, Naruto nodded and Sasuke looked away without acknowledging her question.

"Never felt better, Sakura came to visit me and that's when I started to feel better. She must be magic…" Kazama voice trailed off while he looked around the town but when he said Sakura's name it was like he was mentioning something fragile and precious.

Sakura kept glancing over at Sasuke but he wouldn't look at her anymore, not even a glare. He must still be mad about the mission. Even Naruto was giving her weird looks, 'what's with these guys? I'm just being nice to Kazama, it doesn't mean anything.Right?'

"Hey Sakura let's go look around, show me where everything is," Kazama urged taking her hand and nudging her away from Naruto and Sasuke. Sakura nodded and Kazama started tugging her down the street, "Naruto, Sasuke you want to come?" Sakura called back, Sasuke was already heading back in the opposite direction; Naruto looked back and forth from her to Sasuke. "I would but I gotta keep an eye on him, he looks about ready to kill someone for some reason." Naruto called back running to catch up with Sasuke.

As Kazama dragged her down the street asking questions she kept looking down at Sasuke, why was he so upset today?

But for some reason she felt suddenly at ease like something in the air just calmed her. And she suddenly got an urge to get closer to Kazama, and she hurried so she could walk beside him.


"Sasuke! Sasuke-teme! Wait up! I know you can hear me you bastard!" Naruto yelled running to catch up to Sasuke, and as usual Sasuke ignored him and picked up his pace.

"Hey, what's with you? I thought you were over being mad about the mission?" Naruto huffed catching his breath. Sasuke still ignored him, why should he have to tell Naruto why he was mad?

Naruto ran ahead of Sasuke and planted himself in front of him so he was blocking him. Sasuke shifted to walk past but Naruto shifted with him, "Get out of my way," Sasuke growled. Naruto didn't move an inch, "not till you tell me why you're mad again. Is it about Kazama and Sakura?"

"Why the hell should I care about that?! I just don't like him, I don't trust him!" Sasuke yelled shoving Naruto out of the way so he could keep walking. Naruto shrugged and kept walking next to Sasuke talking about whatever came to his mind, mostly ramen flavors he wanted to try.

'I don't trust that Kazama guy, I don't care if Sakura goes off with him. That guy pisses me off for some reason though.' Sasuke thought ignoring Naruto.

'He pisses me off!'
