They made their way to their favorite spot, Sakura had already laid out a blanket and set the basket down. "Sorry it's not ramen." She laughed.
"It's okay, I can something else at least once a week." He smiled at her.
They both stopped when the heard movement in the bushes, Sakura's eyes darted to Naruto and then the tree line. "Whoever's out there, just come we know you're there." Naruto warned, he crouched down ready to pounce incase they attacked. They were shocked by who exited the bushes.
"Hinata? What are you doing here?" he asked, his face twisted into anger and annoyance, theyd had this conversation already.
"Its not what you think, I came to warn you about Ino." Sakura watched at Naruto relaxed sensing truth in the girl's words.
"What about her?" Sakura was angry at this point, that blonde seemed to have it out for her and she didn't know what her issue was.
"She is planning on luring you into a trap Sakura; if she tells you that someone is hurt, and they need your help she's lying don't go alone. There will be a group of guys waiting for you to arrive and the things that she is planning on doing are unspeakable." Hinata looked down ashamed, "I'm sorry, I don't know what's gotten into her."
"I don't want Sasuke and she's determined to think that I do, he's nothing more than a friend and a very good one a that. If she wants him so bad, then she just needs to go for it instead of trying to torture me for thinking I like the same guy she does." She rolled her eyes and took a bite of her sandwich and huffed. "Here." She said suddenly, she was holding the other half out for Hinata to take with a smile.
She took the other half and sat down next to Sakura, "Th-thank you." She managed a shy smile and took a bite.
Naruto couldn't help but admire the heart that Sakura had, she was willing to give anyone the benefit of the doubt or even a second chance. He watched as they talked and laughed and her green eye seems to shine in the sunlight; the day went on and soon it was time for Hinata to leave.
"Well it seems that you've made a new friend." He smiled down at her.
"She seems sweet, didn't you guys date at one point? Can I ask what happened?" she looked up into his blue eyes and smiled a small smile.
"She is very sweet person, but when we were together she was very possessive. Her insecurities ate her alive and she thought I was constantly going to leave her for someone else, it got the point where I couldn't go on missions outside of the village without her freaking out. It was hell."
Sakura understood those feelings all to well, when you're dating someone as cute and as popular as him she could see why Hinata couldn't handle it. They packed up and headed back to his apartment and along the way they ran into Ino.
"Hey, we're going to have a little party down by the lake, and I'd love it if you both could come!" before they could say anything she shoved an innovation card in their hands and skipped away leaving them utterly confused.
"Well what do you think, should be go?" she looked over at him as they entered the apartment, he could tell she was a little on the nervous side.
"It couldn't hurt; besides I'll be there, and nothing will happen while I'm around." He simply bent down and kissed her forehead and made his was over to his makeshift bed and plopped down. "Get some sleep Sakura, I'll see you in the morning."
By time they woke up it was time to get ready and go, she put on her pale green bikini. She put on a pair of shorts and a tank top and threw her hair up in a messy bun letting a few strands fall and leaving her bangs the way they were. She walked out of the room to find Naruto was ready and just waiting on her.
"Wanna grab something to eat before we go?" he asked grabbing his house keys from the counter.
"That's fine, but you might have to eat something other than ramen twice this week." She smiled pulling him along as she shook his head. They grabbed a quick bite and made their way to the lake, they were surprised to see Sasuke was there as and he was talking to the blonde hostess. They found a spot and set their stuff down on the blanket Sakura brought with them, Naruto made his way over to Sasuke.
"I'm surprised to see you in the sunlight." He laughed and the Uchiha just rolled his eyes, "But really, what's up." They talked and then he noticed the blond shooting a dirty look and when he turned to see who she was giving it too his jaw dropped a little.
Sakura had lost the shorts and tank top, revealing the suit that fit her body and curves perfectly. She pulled her hair out of the messy bun, so it was in perfect little waves and she made her way over to Naruto and smiled up at the tan blonde. "So, what do think?" she twirled around to give him a better look and to piss Ino off a little more since Sasuke was standing there as well.
She winked at Naruto and made her way towards the water, it was so clear you could see straight to the bottom. She swam out, not minding all of the other people decided to come to the lake today; from what she's heard it was a great family spot that was visited a lot by the locals.
Naruto watched from the beach with Sasuke, Ino walked over and handed them a drink and then walked to where Sakura was wading in the water and handed her one as well. Sakura slowly sipped on it enjoy the cool water against her skin, she finished the cup and handed it to Naruto and went further out into the water. She leaned back and floated on the top of the water, she felt relaxed for once but before she knew it she started to feel dizzy.
She placed a hand on her forehead and started to make her way towards Naruto and the other, but something stopped her, she turned around to see Kiba with a sly smirk as he reached for her top. Before she could comprehend what, he was doing he had already pulled it off; she yelled as she was pulled under.
They tried to move fast enough so he wouldn't see what was going on but they should've known better, Ino had something far worse planned for her but decided that embarrassing her in front of a large crowd would do the trick. Sakura surfaced with tears threatening to fall from her eyes, she stayed crouched down in the shallow water staying in ball so no one could see her.
He made his way over to her looking down he yelled for Sasuke to bring him her towel, "It's okay Sakura." He whispered in her ear as she began to cry.
The made a wall around her with the help of a few clones so no one could see, she stood and wrapped the towel quickly around her waist, "You can look now." She whispered tears still falling from her eyes, Naruto walked over and wrapped his arms around the pinkette, "I just want to go home." She cried.
He nodded, one of his clones scooped her up and carried her home at a quick pace. He gathered their stuff but his blood began to boil as he heard Kiba laughing.
Please tell me we're going to rip him to shreds.
Naruto spun on his heel and without a word walked up and his Kiba; Ino screamed and Hinata jumped "You've done a lot of fucked up things Ino but this one takes the cake. She doesn't and hasn't liked Sasuke, you're pity jealousy of girl who wasn't even a threat you is laughable and a shame. You're a pretty girl Ino but that's all you have, because you are nothing but a bitter snake on the inside and that is why people like Sakura more than you, she cares, she has a good heart while yours is just rotting away." He left the blonde stunned as he walked away.
"You know he's right, Sakura is like my sister and you just humiliated someone I care about but not in the way that you seem to think." She turned to meet Sasuke's burning red eyes, "Sakura is a good girl, and has talked to me about you. I did in fact like you Ino but after this I don't think you can be trusted if this is how you're going to treat the people I care about especially if they're a female."
A single tear fell from down her cheek.
