Perfect?

"Naruto-kun!" Naru ran around Naruto's apartment, looking for the blonde kuubi holder. "Naruto-kun!"

"Please don't find me… please don't find me…" Naruto secretly chanted to himself. He was hiding in the cupboard. How he stuffed himself in there we will never know. Naruto knew he would probably get sick from the fumes of the cleaners, but hiding was more important now. A sudden flare of light washed over him.

"There you are!" Naru laughed. "I have a question for you!" She pulled Naruto out of his crushed position in the cupboard. "Can you help me break up…" She was interrupted.

"No! Sakura-Chan is my friend and I refuse to break her and Sasuke up!" Naruto huffed.

"Uh… that's nice and all, but I was wondering if you could help me break up with Lee." She rolled her eyes. "That guy just can't take a hint."

"Oh… well Lee is my friend too, so do it yourself. I have to get prepared for graduation anyways." Naruto sauntered off to get ready, leaving a fuming Naru. It had been a few months since the sleepover and Graduation was soon coming. In fact it was in two days. Naruto reluctantly (was forced by Sakura and Ino) to help with decorations and planning. It wasn't all bad though. It gave him a reason to spend time with Hinata. Not that he needed one, but it made him feel better in case Neji asked him about it. The Hyuuga really scared him sometimes.

"GRRR! The graduation is coming! I know what Sasuke has planned and I'm powerless to stop it!" Itachi cursed and pondered on how to stop his brother. Sakura now had a rather annoying nickname for him and still refused to call him Niisan. She called him… itchy. It bugged him to no end! I mean ITCHY! Of all names in the world! Itachi stopped his inner ranting to think of something to do about his brother. His vow to leave Sakura alone hadn't worked out very well.

Itachi had almost completely healed, but still had to go in for a check up. The same nurse treated him every time, the one from before, and each time he would think of asking her out Sakura would pop into his mind. It drove him nuts! Completely bonkers! Sakura was like a drug to him. Worse then crack. (Not that he tried it… . ) Itachi went back to his planning, a image of the pink haired girl still fresh in his mind.

The day before graduation. Sakura was soooo excited. She and Sasuke were planning this big party for the graduation night, seniors only. Ino took her out shopping and they bought a beautiful dress. It was a vivid red that stopped an inch below the butt. The back was open until a inch above the butt. It sparkled and had a design on one side in black. Showing her every curve and swaying with every motion of her body, it fit her like a glove. Now she stood in front of her mirror, looking at herself. Her hair was brought out be the dress and her eyes shoe like the sparkles. Sasuke would die! (Not DIE die, but you know.)

"Sakura? I'm coming in." Sasuke turned the doorknob and as fast as lightning Sakura pulled on a robe. She didn't want him to see it yet.

"Hey. What's up?" she asked.

"I should ask you that. What are you hiding?" He smirked at her.

"None of you're business." Sakura teased, sticking out her tongue. Sasuke caught it in his mouth and pulled her into a kiss. Sakura was startled at first, but then enjoyed it.

"Dope." She smiled once they broke apart.

"Hey, that's my insult." He fake whined.

"Quit you're whining and get out. I need to change." Sakura giggled when Sasuke kissed her forehead.

"Hm" He left without another word. Sakura quickly changed and hid her dress. This graduation would be one of her greatest moments in life!

O0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o

Sakura was almost asleep. It took so friggin long for the people to get their friggin diplomas. She was so bored! Finally Sasuke got up to do a speech. He was a valedictorian and Sakura was proud. Sasuke started.

"I'll make this short and sweet. When I first started here I admit I was a stuck up jerk. I haven't changed much…" This comment earned him some giggles. " but I've learned that the world doesn't revolve around me. One person in particular helped me see that. As of a week ago she turned nineteen and I've been nineteen for a few months now. I would like Haruno Sakura to come up here with me." (totally OOC, but its cute.)

Sakura stood and proceeded to the stage blushing. Itachi sat in his seat fidgeting. He thought of nothing to stop this. Sasuke would beat him. He would loose. Sakura now stood next to Sasuke. He got out a small blue box. "Sakura, we've been through a lot…" He got down on one knee. "And I would like to go through a lot more. Marry me?" Sakura starred at him.

Say something! Anything! She yelled at herself she slowly nodded and a wave of gasps went through the crowd. Sasuke smiled and slipped the ring on her finger. Yes Sasuke had not only purposed, but he smiled. The stadium went into a fit of applause. With all the noise Sakura still herd Ino.

"WHOO! GO SAKURA!" She smiled and hugged Sasuke. She was engaged.

0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0

"Congrats!" Everyone yelled as Sasuke and Sakura walked through the door. The party had started and Sakura was the center of attention. Her dress was to be exact. People asked her if she knew that Sasuke was going to purpose, she answered no truthfully. In fact it was the last thing she expected! She thought about the talk her and Sasuke had before the party.

FLASHBACK

"Sasuke, we just finished high school. What about collage?" she asked.

"I'm an actor! We have more then enough money to put you through collage and I already have a job. It's perfect!" He had said, and he made since. She smiled and kissed him. She was ready.

FLASHBACK

"… don't you think?" Ino's voice brought her out of her thoughts.

"Uh… what?" Sakura asked.

"Don't you ever listen? I said it's a beautiful night for an engagement, don't you think." Ino was teasing her. This earned her a light punch.

"Ha-ha. But yes!" Sakura giggled. Ino joined her.

With the boys…

"I swear if you hurt my Sakura-chan…"Naruto was cut off.

"You're Sakura-chan?" Sasuke twitched.

"I- I mean you're Sakura-chan then I'll haft a hurt you!" Naruto said. Everyone else laughed at him. "What! I'm serious!"

"We know dope. It's just funny you think you can hurt me." Sasuke said. "Don't worry, I don't plan on hurting her.

"Man, Sakura really changed you. I remember you wouldn't laugh for anything untill she came. It was a change for the better. By the way, Naru's sooooo sad! She was all 'Why'd he pick her? What's so good about her?' an stuff like that." Naruto said.

"Tch. I don't know why she'd think I'd leave Sakura for her anyway" Sasuke scoffed. "She isn't very smart." Sasuke looked around and saw Sakura. "I'm going over there. Want to come? I think I see hinata." Sasuke started walking away and Naruto ran to catch up.

"… and then she said…" Sakura was getting bored and missed Sasuke when strong arms rapped around her waist. She smiled at the warmth they emitted.

"Hey." Sakura leaned her head back on Sasuke's shoulder while he rests his over her shoulder. This would be perfect.

Yo! This chapter is fluffy (kinda). Don't worry, I'm not done. I'm planning on doing the wedding and Itachi and Naru aren't out of the pic yet. I'm thinking about Itachi finally asking the nurse out or him and Naru meeting. Vote please! Anyways R&R! Much love to you all!
