Disclaimer: I do not own any Naruto characters for the HUNDREDTH time..

(Minna, sorry for the mistakes that I made in the last chapter, especially the number thingy 1, that one and the title, really sorry 'bout that, it was because I edited the same chapter again and I forgot to change the title 'cause I was telling myself to do it quickly and I only remembered it after I have posted the chapter. I even forgot to thank the reviewers.... Gomen...)

Fooling mode

Naruto was walking down the streets talking happily to himself, thinking about how many ramen he would eat if he would win the contest. He didn't have any worries since he is now a girl, well, changed to a girl. He was sure he'd win. He'd win no matter what.

Sakura sighed, what would happen if Naruto joined the contest and.. and.. Sakura reached the door of the main house, then she stopped, sighing again.

"Sakura-chan?" a girly voice popped in mid-air

Sakura turned around..

"Naruto, what are you doing here?" she gave him a... kinda bit of a death glare..

"Why give me that look Sakura-chan?"

"YOU'RE A BOY!! OTOKO NO!!!!!!! REMEMBER THAT NARUTO!! WHY ARE YOU DISGUISING YOURSELF AS A GIRL!!!!!???" Sakura became big while Naruto's body turned into chibi form, sweatdropping.

"Demou, Sakura-chan.."

"NO BUTS!!!!!!" Sakura inhaled deeply and turned to her original form "Why do you want to join anyway?"

"Because I wanna have ramen!!!"

"THAT'S ALL!!!!!??????" Sakura turned back to being a monster, I mean, being big, hehe...

"Ummmnn.."

'Ko-Kowaii...'

(Naruto)

"Eheheheh.. I think"

Sakura turned back to her true form

Sakura was just about to open the door when she stopped and turned to face Naruto... her eyes look sad and pitiful..

"Sakura-chan, is there something wrong?" sh-, he asked

"I.." Sakura's eyes turned away from his, they looked so lonely..

"Sakura-chan?"

"Naruto, there's something I really, really have to tell you.." Sakura turned to him, she looked like she was about to cry..

"What is it Sakura-chan?"

"Well, you'd be in shock if I tell you this. But do... do you really wanna know?"

"Well.." Naruto scratched his head... "Yup!"

Sakura looked down

"Well, promise me you won't make any violent reactions okay?"

Naruto nodded

"It's because.. because of the contest.."

"What about it?"

"Well, you have to know this since you participated... this is bad news for you Naruto... oohhh I don't think I have the courage to tell you this!!" Sakura buried her face in her hands..

"Sakura-chan... you.."

"NO, I DON'T THINK I CAN!!" she unintentionally whacked his head

"oooooowowwwww...." Naruto fell down on the wooden floor

"Oh, I'm so sorry Naruto!!"

"You didn't have to do that Sakura-chan. You just had to tell me.."

Sakura breathed in and out continuously

Then she took out something in particular.. that.. ehem... boys... well sort of, hate?

"WHAT THE HECK IS THAT!!!!!!????"

"A swimsuit you dummy.."

Swimsuit..

"What's that for??"

"Well.."

Sakura looked away again and gave him the swimsuit..

"What am I gonna do with this?"

"You're gonna wear it you silly!!"

"I'm gonna... WHAT!!!!!!!!????????????????????"

"I'm very sorry Naruto... "

So that was why Sakura was looking sad, she actually acted, o.o;;

Naruto looked dumbfounded and fell on the floor, he never moved

"Well," Sakura stood up and brushed the dirt off her dress "That's it for today, I need to go and change.. what a day!!"

Sakura left Naruto.. she slammed the door behind her and leaned on to it..

'Poor Naruto, if he really, really wears it, his pride of being a man will be lost, humiliated.. poor Naruto, tsk, tsk'

(Sakura)

Then she went off to her own business.

Naruto stood up, his eyes swirling, he looked at the swimsuit.

-----

Yeah, he'd done the Sexy no Jutsu many times before, naked. But, now was different, he had to wear it in front of the people; Sakura would laugh at him if she saw him wearing the orange swimsuit. He imagined himself wearing the swimsuit in his.. original form...

(I'm gonna throw up..)

But he had to do it, for the sake of Ramen, he nodded his head and picked the swimsuit and headed for the bathroom.

'Kami-sama, please help me..'

(Naruto)

Besides, his other form is going to wear it, not him right? But still...

-----

He sat on the toilet cover, looking at the orange swimsuit that hung at the door's knob. His breathing became faster, his heart beat wilder!

'I can't!!! I can't do this!!! If I should have known that... that wearing swimsuit is needed!!!!! Oh no, what am I gonna do!!!!??? Gulp Oh, Kami, please help me!! Please help me!! Help me!!!!'

(Naruto)

He gulped again. He looked down at his feet, thinking if he should or should not wear IT.

'Hmm.. besides if... every contestant needs to wear swimsuit... it means Sakura-chan will be wearing a swimsuit too!!'

(Naruto)

Naruto dreamily thought of Sakura wearing 2piece, which she would really wear, he drooled at that thought. And blood came out of his nose..

"Gah! Damn, where's the tissue!!??" he panicked

------

"Hmn? What should I wear, this or this?" Sakura said as she pulled out two swimsuits, the one that she always used and the new, that is.. two piece.

She sighed, she was looking at the two swimsuits in front of her for half an hour! She gave up, opened her door and went out for some fresh air.

She stretched her arms, yawning, she looked everywhere around her.....

"Ne, ne!!!"

"Shut up, Hikaru! You've been bugging me since you saw me this morning! Can't you leave me alone!?"

"No." Hikaru gave a direct answer with a frown. She grinned happily and stared at him teasingly. He looked away from her stare, not wanting to hear her blabber...

"Stop it, Hikaru"

"No, I won't!!"

"I said stop it!!"

"I will stop if you tell her," she said, her hands on her back, turning away from him, she tilted her head on one side, one eye visible enough for him to notice she was still looking at him. (Kinda confusing, ne?)

"I won't!"

"Why don't you wanna tell her? It's obvious that you now like her very much, and you care about her!"

He didn't say anything. He hated to lose. He always won, but... he lost over such a silly looking little girl? And she was right.

(Inner Koko: Feh, how pathetic, Sasuke lost?

Koko: Bah, stop it, you're ruining the fic, get lost!!

Inner Koko: you get lost!!!

Koko: ehem, excuse me, I don't get lost you know!

Inner Koko: oh, you don't? Don't you even remember you got lost in the school 'cause you didn't know where the intermediate faculty room is?

Koko: flushes gah, shut up, that didn't count!!)

He sighed, "If you don't want to leave, then I'll do," he said, he inserted his hands inside his pocket and started to walk out.

"Sakura-chan!" Hikaru cried

As Hikaru said this, Sasuke turned back to see...

"Gotcha!"

"uh?"

"Haha! You fell for it! Sakura-nechan isn't here anyway!!" then she continued laughing and laughing and laughing....

"Damn you, Sakura wasn't here anyway!"

Hikaru continued laughing at him loudly.

"Did I hear someone say my name?"

Sasuke stopped yelling and Hikaru ceased her laughing, turned their heads towards the direction of the voice.

"Sakura-nechan?"

Sasuke and Hikaru both blinked.

"Uhh, anou, I think my mom needs me now!! Jaa!" Hikaru excused

Hikaru ran, leaving Sasuke behind with Sakura.

"Hikaru, come back here you-!" he stopped, realizing Sakura was there, "Uhh..."

Sakura smiled, "Ne, Sasuke-kun would you like to have lunch? I made them especially for you!"

"I..."

'Good, Ino's not here, or else she will ruin my plan!'

(Sakura)

"Sakura, I need to tell you something..."

'Well, this is my chance!!'

(Sasuke)

"Say, ahh!" Sakura was now holding chopsticks, telling him to open his mouth, which he did.

"How does it taste?"

"Tastes good," he said, munching the delicious lunch that Sakura made

"Really? Oh, I'm so happy!"

"Sakura, I really, really need to tell you this.... I..." he, once again, remembered what he was gonna do/say.

"Ahh!" she said, giving him another one..

"Wait, I!"

"What is it?"

"I need to tell you this Sakura before.."

"Before what????"

"Before he does.." he said last 2 words softly, so soft that she didn't hear anything at all...

"Before what, Sasuke-kun?"

"Uhhh... you see..."

Sakura waited for an answer..

"Sasuke-kun?"

"I... you see... the truth is..."

"Hm?"

"I... uhh... the lunch you made was delicious!!!" he said,

'Oh damn, what did I say to her? That wasn't supposed to be what I'm going to say to her. Ugh!'

(Sasuke)

"Well, you already said that, Sasuke-kun, thank you anyway!!" she said cheerfully, giving him another mouthful of rice which he gladly ate.

"Uhh, Sakura, I can eat by myself," he said, but actually, he liked Sakura feeding him, aww, so sweet!

"Oh, sorry Sasuke-kun!"

"Ehehe..."

"Anou..." Sakura placed her chopsticks on top of the bento box

"What is it?"

"Would...you... would you like to come with me to the carnival!?" Sakura asked

"Well, uhh... I ..."

"Oh, please Sasuke-kun.. please?"

"Well, okay... when?"

"Today!"

"T-today??"

"Uh-huh," she clasped her hands together and smiled

"Oh, well.." he sighed..

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

"So, this is the carnival?" he said, looking at the large and tall rides.

"Yup!"

"I... see.."

"Come on, let's go!" Sakura pulled him inside and paid the fee (A/N: shouldn't it be that the guy should treat the girl.. instead of... wah, let it be!)

"Hmn, where should we go first?"

Sasuke just stared dryly at his surroundings...

"I know, the roller coaster!" Sakura pulled him to the roller coaster and lined up, almost half an hour (Some people line up for hours!)

As Sakura and Sasuke hopped on to one of the seats of the coaster, Sakura was smiling widely, while Sasuke looked... bored?

After the ride...

(I have never, ever, ever, rode on the roller coaster so I haven't felt what it is like to be there. I was scared to ride it! Ugh!)

"I... feel ... I feel..." Sakura looked like puking, she touched her head and felt dizzy. She sat down on a bench and rested...

Sasuke ... ehem.. didn't feel anything... He looked worried, Sakura's head was bowed down and he thought something was wrong, he too lowered his head down to hers and asked, "Hey, you alright?"

"Let's go to the next ride!!!!" Sakura's head shot up, which surprised Sasuke..

'Well, I guess there's nothing to worry about...'

(Sasuke)

Sakura and Sasuke started walking..

Obviously, girls were there too, and his fan-girls too. As Sasuke's fan girls looked at their dear, beloved Sasuke-kun, they death glared Sakura, they wanted to ... ehem... you know what..

"Hey, why don't we go there next?" Sakura pointed to the Ferris wheel..

"Sure"

And they, again, lined up..

------

Sasuke and Sakura sat down on the same seat, but were both far away from each other. The couple stayed silent and just stared out at the window, looking at the miniature people down them...

"Anou.. Sasuke-kun?"

"Mm?"

(Now you use 'Mm' instead of 'Aa', what next!?)

"Well... may I ask you something?" Sakura gazed at the sky, still not looking at him. Sasuke did the same way.

"Sure"

"May I know... if you won't mind... if ... may I know what you think of me?" she placed her hands on her lap and played with them, quite nervous and excited.

'No! I shouldn't have said that!! Where did that come from!!??'

(Sakura)

She felt her cheeks burning hot with embarrassment.

"I.." was all he could say, he, too, was nervous from the question that she had made. He was loss at words, nothing to say to her. He had to be careful with what to say to her, or else he'll hurt her feelings. He didn't want that , did he?

"..." she continued playing with her hands..

"Well," he scratched the back of his head, trying not to look at her, "I.... Don't really know... you're kind, nice and great, you're strong and you-..." he stopped, fearing that he was wrong. He gathered all his courage and tried to look at her, instead what he saw was her head bowed down, her bangs covering her eyes.

Both Inner and Outer had nothing to say. They were dumbstruck. Time had stopped in their world.

"Sakura.." he slowly moved closer to her, which he unintentionally did.

Sakura had stopped playing with her hands and found herself gripping both hands, biting her lower lip and scolding herself to smile..

"Th-thanks, Sasuke-kun!, that's all I need to know!" Sakura said, as she smiled at him

He got worried, he knew that he was wrong; he looked at her eyes, and saw... Water? Is he seeing really what he was really seeing right now? Or maybe his eyes were just fooling him.. or maybe...

'I'm very sorry Sakura.. but I think.. you better not know yet...'

(Sasuke)

The ride stopped and they hopped down, Sakura stretched her arms, Sasuke just looked at her.

"Hey, why don't we get some drinks!?" she said suggested

"Sure.." he inserted his hands inside his pocket, and ... smiled warmly at her..

Sakura bought them some drinks and sipped their juice away ,gobbled it up and threw it away (of course).

As the two threw the empty can of juice, a band passed by them.

"Ne, Sasuke-kun, let's go there!!" she pointed to the bunch of people that was surrounding the band.

Sakura grabbed his wrist and pulled him as she ran to the crowd, but instead, it slipped and by accident, they held each other hands... Sakura being thrilled about seeing the band, didn't realize what kind of situation they were in, but Sasuke, since he was the one behind her, he was aware of what they were doing, running, and holding each other's hands. Of course, he blushed, but then.. instead of panicking about it, he.... He just smiled... he wanted to take this chance... the chance of being with her, the chance of wanting to hold her...

'It's better that she doesn't know yet... '

(Sasuke)

Sasuke tightened his grip on hers a little, but there was no sign of alertness from her, she just kept running... she doesn't know it, does she? He was right, she better not know yet...

When they reached the crowd, Sakura quickly tiptoed to see the band, and even jumped. She was smiling happily and was giggling too; Sasuke chuckled to himself...

'She looks cute when she does that'

(Sasuke)

After the band had passed them, she looked at him, as if nothing ever happened.

"Ne, Sasuke-kun, let's go there!" Sakura said, does she know?

Sasuke just nodded and followed her as she ran to another ride.

"Haiaku, Sasuke-kun!" (Spell check me in the jap, don't know how to spell, it, and it means 'Hurry up!' or 'Hurry!')

He was happy, very happy, he had never had fun before in his whole life (Or so I think), and he was terribly glad to be having fun.. of course, with her...

--------

"I can't believe I'm doing this!!!" Naruto screamed inside the bathroom, trying to figure out how to wear the swimsuit, he was pissed off...

'No, Naruto, if you give up now, you won't win!!!!'

(Naruto)

"GRRRRRR!" he breathed heavily, sweat dripping down from his face, looking at the... ehem, I don't know how to call it but, let's just say.. er... it's the panty (oo;;) ... he took a closer look at the '....', his eye twitched, he held the '...' as though as if it was a disgusting thingy. At last, he finally tried to put it on, he raised his (girl form....) right leg and then slid it on, then his left leg, and now, the hardest part, trying to....slide it up, he slowly pulled the '...' and alas! He did it!!

'aw, heck, too tight!'

(Naruto)

Too tight? Maybe Sakura gave him the wrong size... he looked at the '...' in his '...' and shook nervously, he took a deep breath. Next was the bra....

'okay, Naruto breath in, breath out, that's right.. YOSHI! Let's go!'

(Naruto)

"Here goes!!" Naruto carefully put the bra on his '..'....

5 minutes later...

"At last!! I did it!! I made it!! YATTAAAAA!!!!!" Naruto jumped in happiness, as if he'd just finished a mission, or as if he had just been given 10 bowls of ramen..

Naruto looked at a mirror and...

'Wow, I look kinda sexy from here...'

(Naruto)

Naruto posed like a model, thinking if he could seduce men with his charm, I mean her charm...

'I'd surely win!!! WOOHOO!! I think I even look sexier than Sakura-chan!'

(Naruto)

Naruto, seeing that it wasn't that bad wearing the swimsuit, as bad as posing naked in front of the Hokage, Ebisu and many others, he didn't feel embarrassed anymore, instead he felt much happier, confident and really sure that he'd win no matter what..

"Now, why don't we go outside and see if my sexual charm works..?" Naruto rubbed his chin and started to walk out of the bathroom and outside.. with his other form..

"Hi there Ten-ten!" Naruto passed by Ten-ten just outside the main house..

"Oh, hi, but I'm sorry, I don't think I know you.." Ten-ten said looking curiously at her, looking at her from head to toe

"Oh, yeah, I almost forgot... ehehe.. it's me Naruto!"

Ten-ten's express changed, her face almost looked like shocked,

"Let me guess...you... you used... "

"Henge!" Naruto continued for her

"I... I see..." Ten-ten muttered, eye twitching...

Ten-ten looked at Naruto's girl form again, she rubbed her eyes expecting her vision to come back, she thought that maybe her eyes were fooling her, but no, there were proof that he was Naruto, the hair color, the whisker-like marks on... her face, and only Naruto could do such ridiculous things... she opened her eyes again, he/she was still there..

'What the-..'

(Ten-ten)

Ten-ten held her stomach with her right hand and her mouth with the left,

"Excuse me!!!!!" Ten-ten ran inside the main house, kicking everything that was in her way. And I think you already know what that means.

"Hey..." Naruto waved, and again, she held her stomach and her mouth the way she did a while ago.

'Maybe it was too shocking for her to see me in this form, or... maybe she's too shocked to see that I was more sexier than her!!! Ehehe....'

(Naruto)

Naruto smiled at himself once again, 'Wait 'till Sakura-chan sees me', he said to himself, wanting to show off his beauty to Sakura..

------

"Sasuke-kun, arigato for coming with me... I really appreciate it!" Sakura said

"No, it's alright, that's fine.." Sasuke started walking off the carnival and headed to the main house while the couple started chatting, which Sasuke, as always, didn't care, he just says 'Mm' or nods his head every time she says something...

Outside the main house..

Naruto was at the beach. Men who passed by surely saw her and without warning, chatted with her...

Minutes later...

Swarm of men were already surrounding Naruto, asking he-, him if h-, she would like to go out and date them, asking her name, where she lives or other kinds of things that men would surely wanna know.

Sasuke and Sakura were walking towards the main house, where you still have to pass by the beach to get there, and saw, Naruto.

'What's happening here?'

(Sakura)

They had already noticed 'it', Sasuke had no interest in what was happening, but stopped, just because Sakura stopped to see the commotion...

Naruto caught a sight of Sakura and waved to her, Sakura could see that, but Naruto's ehem... should I say fan boys, were crowding him so he just jumped out of them and gave a sigh of relief, which he-, his fan boys were not aware of.

"Sa-ku-ra-chan!!!!!!!" Naruto cried, running off to his b-beloved...

"Naruto?" As Naruto came running to her, Sakura could already see Naruto wearing the swimsuit.

'So, he really DID wear it...'

(Sakura)

'What the heck????!!!'

(Sasuke)

'OOOOOOHHH, Sakura-chan!!!!'

(Naruto)

"Naruto?"

"Sakura-chan, look I wore it!!"

"Uh, yeah, I can see that"

"Sakura-chan, I'll surely win the contest! And I need to tell you something.."

'Naruto no baka, who told you you're gonna win'

(Sakura)

'HELLYEAH!! WHO TOLD YOU YOU'RE GONNA WIN YOU-'

(Inner Sakura)

"What?" she said, irritated, because he just broke her happiest moment of her life, being with Sasuke. And she even got more annoyed 'cause he told her that he was gonna win..

"Sakura-chan... this will be bad news for you.."

"What?" she raised an eyebrow...

'Kami, please let this be quick, I wanna spend time with Sasuke-kun right now..'

(Sakura)

"From now on.... We'll be rivals!!!!" Naruto shouted

"Rivals?"

'What the hell is Naruto thinking?'

(Sasuke)

"Yeah, from now on, we'll be rivals, until the contest ends anyway"

'No one's stopping you Naruto, and I'm thankful for it'

(Sakura)

"And Sakura-chan, I'll win the contest no matter what!!"

"Yeah, yeah, right.." Sakura didn't take it seriously, she was tired of beating him up, she wanted Naruto to get out of her sight and cuddle Sasuke-kun in her arms, and if Ino passed by, make her jealous.

Naruto started to walk off, and Sakura went to mind her own business when...

"Oh, and one more thing Sakura-chan!" Naruto called off

"What now!?" now, she was irritated as ever...

"You won't mind me winning the swimsuit part in the contest right?"

"Huh?"

"'Cause it's already obvious that I'm gonna win! 'cause I'm a lot more sexier, prettier, charming, attractive, good-looking, gorgeous and nicer than you are!" he said, his left hand on his hip and right hand waving about while he boasted to Sakura, he even laughed evilly..

'WHAT DID YOU SAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!'

(Inner and Outer Sakura)

'Do-be'

(Sasuke)

"NANDATO!!!!!!!! TAKE THAT BACK NARUTO!!! I'M GONNA SKIN YOUR FLESH OFF YOUR BONES, BOIL YOU, SELL YOU AT THE MEAT SHOP, OR EVEN CREMATE YOU ALIVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Sakura started chasing Naruto, while he ran for his life

"AAAAAAHHH!"

Her, Naruto's fan boys, didn't chase Naruto, not because he was too busy boasting about, but because of Sakura. They even got scared of her and just stared at Naruto who ran for his life.

Sakura caught him and tortured him to death while at the same time, Sasuke just looked at them and started walking off, leaving Naruto to die in the hands of Sakura...
