A New Leaf

"Can I take this blindfold down yet?" Sakura asked impatiently.

"Not yet."

"Oh come on!"

She was quite confused as of why she was blindfolded since, after all, this apartment was for Naruto and not for her. Was he too scared to get judged? Oh no, did he pick out an apartment which has poor plumbing and structure?! If that was the case... that stupid boy should have brought her to pick out a new apartment with him! He can be so hopeless sometimes.

Naruto stepped behind her and untied the blindfold, allowing gravity to grab the fabric down onto the floor.

Sakura's eyes peeled open and immediately she darted her sights at her new surrounding: a new apartment - probably three times bigger than Naruto's previous one.

And it was remarkably clean too, with new floorboards, windows and freshly painted walls.

"This apartment looks so good, Naruto!" she claimed before she cheekily added: "I guess I'll have more sleepovers here from now on."

The blond chuckled. "I don't think that's needed, Sakura-chan,"

"Huh?"

Naruto took her open pale hand and dropped a golden key on it. "After all, this is your place now."

"What?!"

"Actually," he blushed lightly, "This place is ours now."

Sakura raised a brow. "Are you asking me to move in with you?"

"Yup." his arm snaked around her waist before he propped his chin on her shoulder. "And it will be a new leaf for us."

"This apartment looks very expensive. How are we going to pay for it?"

Naruto grinned. "Kaka-sensei said he's got it covered."

Sakura could have sworn that her jaw had dropped. "Sensei?!"

"Isn't having our sensei the Hokage great?"

"Damn right." she smirked.

Naruto grinned, "Now, how do we convince him to buy us some new furnitures?"
