A/N: I. Don't. Own. Naruto.

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

The nurse led Sasuke straight to Sakura's room and stopped outside of the door. "Don't excite her too much, she's still recovering and we can't have that wound reopened. Let her rest a little, too" she mentioned and smiled at him. "You can go in now," she said and left, heading off to do other things. Excite her? He was staring to wonder… He just stood there awhile though, staring at the door for a good while before actually opened the door and went in…

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

Naruto sat in the lobby still and yawned; it was getting late. The sun was already gone and now it was getting pretty dark out side. He started to wonder how Kakashi was doing, but he really didn't have to wonder much longer because Kakashi himself showed up a few minutes later.

Naruto was almost dozing on the chair when he saw him.

"Kakashi-sensei!" he called out and grinned.

"Yo," he said in his usual tone and came over to Naruto.

"Did the stuff get delivered?" Naruto asked.

"Yeah, how's Sakura?" Kakashi asked, still a little worried for his student.

"That's great and Sakura's going to be just fine!" he grinned.

Kakashi let out a sigh of relief. "That's good," he smiled under his mask. He then looked around, where was Sasuke though?

"Naruto, where's Sasuke?" he asked Naruto firmly, wondering where Sasuke went off to.

"He went to see Sakura-chan!" he smiled and Kakashi then smiled, too.

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

Sasuke stepped in the room and closed the door behind him, looking around the room. He saw Sakura right away; she looked so much better. Color was restored to her face and she looked much warmer. He walked over to her and looked down, gently.

She had bandages all around her chest to cover the wound. They went from her collarbone all the way to above her belly button, wrapped around neatly. He noticed also that her shirt and his was on the end of the bed, dry, and neatly folded.

"Sakura…" he heard himself say softly. He didn't even know he said her name. He looked over her; she looked so peaceful while sleeping…. He shook his head yet again to shake the thoughts. Just what was he doing in here anyway? She's sleeping ….He just sighed.

He just took a chair though and sat by her bed, looking out the window quietly. Since there was nothing he could do, he just sat there. His eyes eventually looked back over at her again and he noticed she was kind of cold. He took the covers and pulled them over her, also taking his shirt, unfolding it and putting it on the covers on top of her for extra warmth.

He just let a sigh slip again. His head started to droop; it really had been a long day. He was getting a little tired as the stars in the sky started to define themselves and the room darkened. His mind pondered so many things, but it just wanted to shut down for a while and his tiredness shown in his eyes. Eventually, eventually his head drooped down so much that he rested his head on the side of her bed, his back bent in the chair and his head buried in his arms as he slept…

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

Naruto and Kakashi just sat there in the waiting room, bored.

"I wonder what Sasuke-teme is doing…" Naruto wondered to himself. "He's been in there awhile…" Naruto went to get up, but Kakashi just stopped him.

"It's alright," he smirked. "I'm sure they're both fine. We can check later,"

Naruto just grinned. "Yeah, you're right." He then went quickly to sit back down, looking at Kakashi.

"Sensei…"

"Yeah?" he smiled and looked at Naruto. "What is it?"

"Well, it's about Sasuke."

"Oh, really?" Kakashi looked down at his book, remembering the page he was on before putting it away.

"Yeah…. Well, he's just been acting weird lately. I think I know… but…I just don't wanna assume…"

Kakashi just smiled wider. 'So, he noticed, too. I'm surprised…. Naruto even knows…' he thought and just shook his head to himself. "I think your assumptions are right, Naruto," he said bluntly, knowing exactly what Naruto was talking about.

"But! Kakashi-sensei! He won't even say anything…"

"Naruto, I think he's just confused. He'll get it soon, and if not, we'll just have to give him a little push in the right direction," he winked and got his book out again.

Naruto's grin turned devilish and he nodded, pleased with this new mission…

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

Man, did Sakura's head hurt when she woke up the next morning. The sun penetrated through the window and lit the room up, shining in her eyes. She then remembered yesterday…. She quickly looked down at the wound she had gotten, it was all bandaged and healed up, but it still hurt to move. She wondered who had taken her to the hospital…She then felt pretty sad for being weak like that on the mission and getting injured…

She just let out a sigh and looked out the window at the beautiful day that was outside. But, she smelled this familiar smell that made her feel all comfortable in side. She looked down and found the source; her eyes widened. Why was Sasuke's shirt here? She held it up, but then quickly let it drop back to the bed when she saw who was in the room with her, head still resting on the side of her bed, asleep. Her eyes widened more…Why…?

"Sasuke-kun?"

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

Naruto fell asleep last night and after Kakashi finished reading his book, he too decided to take a doze. After the sun shown in and morning came around Naruto twitched a little and tried to roll over, only falling on the floor and waking up abruptly with some bed-head. He got up quickly, surprised and looked around dumbly. A nurse that was passing by just giggled slightly and he turned a little red from embarrassment.

He just shook his head and looked at the dozing Kakashi who had a book on his face, breathing in and out slowly. "Kakashi-sensei!" Naruto called out to him, but no answer came. He proceeded to poke him and then 'poof!' the clone of Kakashi disappeared. "What the?!" Naruto stumbled back a bit.

Kakashi had already woken up a little while ago and he was now standing behind Naruto, coffee in hand. "Looks like you fell for it," he smiled.

Naruto just spun around and then growled. "Sensei!!" he whined, but then noticed…Sasuke still wasn't back… "Ummm…. Sasuke isn't back yet…" he said, confused.

Kakashi just nodded and looked at him. "Yeah, I was just about to go see what he's doing," he nodded.

"Yeah! I want to visit Sakura-chan and see what Sasuke's up to in there!" he just grinned and Kakashi shook his head, laughing slightly. Kakashi did have to wonder though. Did Sasuke fall asleep while in there…?

Naruto then looked at Kakashi's coffee. "So, you're gonna drink that, right?" he asked, hoping he would take his mask down to drink it.

"Yeah," he stated casually. "Wait! Naruto what's that?!" he pointed to something random and Naruto looked over in that direction, but by the time Naruto got it and looked back, all of the coffee was gone and all the nurses seemed to be drooling over Kakashi.

"Yeah…Naruto, can you throw this away for me?" He handed Naruto the empty cup and walked past the dumbfounded Naruto. Naruto then snapped out of it and looked at the empty cup…

How the hell did he do that?

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

Sakura Haruno had a lot to blush about that morning. And by a lot, there was a lot. First, Sasuke was there with her. For whatever reasons she didn't know. Two, he was shirtless. For reasons she didn't know either. Three, he was sleeping right beside her and looked…handsome to say in the least. She didn't even know why he was there in the first place!

She let a small squeak come out as her whole face turned 'tomato' red. She looked away immediately, not really wanting to look at the shirtless Sasuke, but she really did. She knew it wasn't right to stare though, so she just looked out the window quietly.

Sasuke eventually came around to though and started to wake up. He opened his eyes slowly, his vision was blurry and the sun shown on him, warming him. He looked up from where he was resting his head after a while, getting a vision full of pink. His eyes opened wider as he realized what he had done and where he was…and who else was awake….

"Sakura..."
