"Happy birthday Naruto!" All of his friends exclaimed.

Naruto walked into the Namikaze estate and was greeted by Sakura, Sasuke, Shikamaru, Minato, Shikaku, Fugaku and a couple of the Namikaze workers. He smiled and rushed over to his friends.

"Congratulations Naruto, now that you're fifteen you can go into battle as a man." Fugaku said.

"Arigato Fugaku-sama." Naruto said.

"So not fair, even if it's only by months you're still older than me." Sasuke whined.

"Heh. Get used to it Sasuke." Naruto teased.

Sasuke smiled and slapped his back. Everyone smiled then continued with the party, gifts, food and many many congratulations. Sakura stood and watched while she held onto her gift for him.

'Cmon' you can do this Sakura, it's just a gift.' Sakura rallied herself.

Taking a deep breath she walked up to Naruto and tapped his shoulder, he turned to her and gave one of his famous smiles.

"Hey what's up Sakura-chan?"

"Happy birthday Naruto-kun." She held out his gift to him.

"Thanks!" He took the gift from her.

It was a necklace with a green crystal on it and on either side of it was a metal sphere. He slipped it on and gave Sakura a hug, she blushed but returned the hug anyway.

"Meet me on the hill around sunset Naruto-kun." She whispered into his ear.

"Kay'."

They seperated from eachother and continued on with the party. He got folding fan from Fugaku and Sasuke, a shogi board from Shikamaru and Shikaku, and a noogie from his father. Once all the gifts were out of the way they went on to his cake, Naruto was staring at it with twinkles in his eyes, as was Sasuke. Minato brought the knife down and cut a big slice for Sakura,
then just because he felt like it, he cut a small piece for Naruto, a very small piece, that however didn't stop Naruto from enjoying it.

"Thanks guys! This is one of the best birthdays I've ever had!!"

They smiled at him and continued on their way to their respective houses. Sakura turned around just before she was out of the door.

"Remember, sunset, hill, got it?" She reminded him.

"I got it, I got it." He said.

She smiled and continued on her way.

'I wonder what she wants?'

'Oh, how am I going to tell him?'

Shrugging Naruto went and put his gifts in his room.

Sakura got to her house and went to her room.

"Remember Sakura-chan, we're getting up bright and early tomorrow." Her mother reminded.

"I know." She said.

Sakura sighed as she sat down on her bare bed. She was wringing her hands in her lap trying to find ways to tell Naruto.

"M-maybe I should just say it and not think about it then leave." She wondered. "Y-yeah that could w-work..*sniff*...Oh I'll miss you so much Naruto-kun."

Sakura looked up through her window and saw the sun beginning to dip behind the hills of the village. She got off of her bed and quickly made her way to the hill, as usual she made it before Naruto did.

"Hmmm, I wonder what Sakura-chan wants?" Naruto asked himself as he stepped the last few feet.

He saw her standing on the top of the hill with her hands behind her back. He walked up to her left.

"Hey Sakura-chan."

"Hi Naruto-kun." She took his right hand in her left.

They watched the sunset in silence, until Sakura broke that silence.

"Hey, Naruto-kun." She said.

"Hmm?"

"I'm leaving." She answered.

"Wh-what?!" He asked, shocked.

"I'm leaving." She repeated. "You see, Tou-san got a job from a powerful clan lord, to be his personal chef and it pays very well, and Tou-san couldn't pass up an offer like that so tomorrow we're leaving and we're....we're never coming back." Her voice started to break at the end.

"B-but Sakura-chan! You can't just le-!"

His voice was cut off as Sakura crashed her lips against his and pushed him back into the one tree ontop the hill. Naruto's eyes were wide in shock while Sakura's were closed with tears running down her cheeks. Just as quickly as it started it ended. Sakura pulled back and looked into his eyes, where she saw shock.

"I'm sorry Naruto-kun I shouldn't have...." She trailed off as Naruto's free hand came to the left side of the back of her head. "Naruto-kun?"

He looked into her eyes with a calm smile and pulled her in for a kiss. This time it was Sakura's turn to be shocked, but that shock was quickly replaced by joy as she closed her eyes again.
She leaned further into the kiss while she put their enclosed hands to his chest. They pulled back from eachother and Naruto smiled at her.

"I'm sorry, but it looks like we won't be able to get married huh?" She said.

"Heh. You're not getting off that easy Sakura-chan. You think just because we're not in the same village that it'll stop me from marrying you? Don't count on it, 'cause I'll find you." He said.

She looked up at him and smiled, he smiled back. She moved forward and wrapped her arms around him while he did the same, and they watched the sun dip down past the hills.
