Sakura Seasons
Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto. If I did, Sasuke would be dead by now.
A/N: I guess this chapter is gonna be… I don't know, probably a bit crap. I'm too excited about what's gonna happen next so there. It's my sister's birthday today so I guess this is a treat for all of you. She's 15 now and I still cannot believe she's at that age. Thank Maz! (That's her nickname.) She's aiisha101 in but there is some poor news for all her readers… She quit fanfiction! Sorry but her fanfics won't be updated anymore unless she wants to go back.

Chapter 25
Career Choice
The students filled into their seats as the bell rang for first period. Naruto just moaned that Kakashi wasn't ever early.
"Tsunade baa-chan should fire Kakashi-sensei. He's late every morning unless a miracle happens." Naruto groaned.
"But you have to agree, you got smarter since you had him for a teacher." Sakura pointed out.
For some bizarre reason, Kakashi strolled into the classroom, carefree.
"OH-" Naruto began but was interrupted by his sensei.
"Naruto, no need to shout at me when I'm early. And you don't need shout at god when you're praying. He did nothing to you." Kakashi spoke.
He was right. Naruto did have a strange knack of shouting whenever they were saying their prayers.
"Alright everyone, today we will be talking about your future careers when you grow up. For some of you, you already know what you will be when you grow up and for many of you are clueless like Naruto." Kakashi joked.
"Hey! I'm gonna inherit my dad's company!" Naruto objected from his seat.
"Anyway, fill out these forms and discuss it with your parents." Kakashi continued, passing the sheets.
'Crap. I have no idea what I wanna be when I grow up.' Sakura thought.
'You can keep your job at the bakery, be a worldwide kendo player or even be just a plain old house wife.'
'Yeah but I want to do something different other than that. I wanna help people!'
'Which is what? A therapist, dentist, a doctor?'
'Probably…'
Sakura stepped out of her thought and paid attention to the lesson.
x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x
"Hmmmm… What do I want to be when I grow up?" Sakura asked herself.
"Aren't you gonna think about that when you're going home?" Tenten asked.
"No. I have no-one to talk about it so I'm talking about it here." Sakura replied.
"Try asking Tsunade-sama."
"Can't, she's busy this week and the form is supposed to be in by Friday and today's like… Monday."
"Hmmm… Who can you be?"
Sakura stood up and packed up her bento and made her way to the hallway. She got to the locker and heard a commotion going on outside. She ran out to see the football club having some kind of argument. Sakura couldn't tell what they were arguing about because they had just finished. She ran up to Sasuke who was on the field.
"What was that about?" Sakura asked.
"Nothing much. Both teams are fighting over me to be in their team. I said I was quitting so they would stop arguing but now they're threatening me that I'll regret quitting the team." Sasuke explained.
"And you quit why?"
"My parents got me on this thing saying that I have to prepare to be ready to take over the companies. Plus they said they have this surprise for me next year."
"Right…"
Rain suddenly fell from the sky, out of the dull grey clouds. They ran inside for shelter.
x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x
"What to be, what to be, what to be." Sakura said to herself, lying on her bed.
It was still raining heavily. Sakura was thinking about her future career.
'I want o be someone who wants to help people… Let's see…'
'A vet? Nah, I don't think you should start studying about pets so suddenly.'
'I want to help the people a lot.'
'Like save lives? Isn't that supposed to be a doctor?'
'Or a nurse. I'm not sure on taking it though.'
'Think about it. Remember how Onii-san used to help us take care of yourself when you got hurt physically.'
'Yeah… But I'm still not sure though.'
'Okay then, a life guard.'
'What if I get stuck myself?'
'How about a dentist.'
'Uhhh… no comment. But I don't want that job either,'
'It's your life, think about it. I know you're getting tired 'cause it's already late now.'
Sakura looked at her clock beside her. It was eleven in the evening. She groaned before covering herself with the duvet.
"Someone who helps other people…' Sakura spoke, before drifting of to sleep.
The next day was all bright and sunny. Sakura walked clueless around the hallways, still thinking what to do. Hours passed and it was already lunch. Sakura silently ate her lunch, staring into fresh air.
"Sakura, would you stop thinking about your future already!" Tenten irritably said.
"Yeah but what if I still don't know what I want to be when it's already Friday?" Sakura moaned.
"You already know what your future is. You're rich so you'll definitely inherit some kind of business thing."
"Well how about talking to people who aren't rich like Sayaka." Tenten suggested.
"But where is she?"
"Waiting for Sai in the art club."
"Right."
Sakura stood up and left the table.
"Sheesh you could have said thanks." Tenten said to herself.
A few minutes later Sakura appeared at the art club.
"Sakura?" Sayaka asked, looking at the pink haired girl.
"Don't tell me…"
"Sorry." Sakura apologised.
"Didn't you want to be a doctor?" Sayaka reminded. They already had this talk before.
"Yeah but who's good at medical things around here?"
"You didn't know?" Sai said, popping his head out of the supply closet.
"Huh?" Sakura questioned.
"Tsunade-sama and Shizune-san used to be in the medical unit before they became the head of the academy. Didn't you know?"
"Really?"
A ring tone could be heard in the room. Sakura hurriedly got her phone out of her pocket.
"Hello?" Sakura spoke.
'Uhhh, Sakura-chan, Naruto-kun ummm…' Hinata called out from the phone.
"Did he spill ramen on his trousers again?" Sakura sighed.
'Yeah and it looks like he did it.'
"I'll see you at the cafeteria. Tell Neji to get the spare trousers in the boys bathroom." Sakura then hung up.
"Naruto, that idiot." Sayaka sighed.
"That's the third time this week. How do you think he gets it on his trousers?"
"It's all a mystery… It's also a mystery why he's so dumb and yet he's in this school." Sakura replied standing up.
x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x
Sakura sat in the benches outside the football fields. Today was Sasuke's last day in the football team and she decided to watch since she had no practice. The ball kept moving from on side from another, making Sakura head tilt in every position it went to. She watched for five minutes until…
The ball flew up into the air, someone had kicked it and it flew past at a great speed. It dashed past several members on the field but hit one particular person.
-SMACK!-
Sakura stood up. She could not believe what was happening. Without hesitation, she ran up to the poor teen that lay on the grass in pain. An ambulance could be heard a few minutes later.
Sakura waited patiently outside. She was worried if Sasuke had a really minor injury.
'His head did bleed a lot…'
'Yeah but how can't he not dodge the ball!'
'It was going fast.'
'He's always the one who's saying to be careful.'
'Shut up! I'm trying to think what to do.'
'Call- no don't call Ino or else she'll start shouting and soon she'll start to wake the whole hospital up.'
'The doctor's out of the room!'
'Has it really been this long?'
"Ummm, are you a friend of Uchiha-san?" The doctor asked Sakura.
"Yes I am." Sakura spoke dryly.
"You may come in the room but let him have some rest afterwards." The doctor advised before walking off.
Sakura ran to the room and calmed down a bit. At least he's still alive. She sat down beside his bed, smiling.
"Are you okay?" Sakura asked caringly.
"Aah."
"I'm just glad you're alive."
"What's that supposed to mean?!"
"It looked like you were going to die though."
"Well thank doctors, they save your life."
'Ah, I got it! Why don't you be a-'
'Probably... Maybe… Well they do save people's lives… And Sasuke-kun is important to me.'
'Ding, ding, ding! We have an answer!'
'Well now I'm tired, is there any way I can sleep on the bed?'
x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x
Sakura gave in her form proudly. She sat down in her seat, smiling.
"So what did you pick Sakura-chan?" Hinata asked as she sat down.
"Doctor." Sakura simply replied.
"Eh? Doctor? Then when I grow up, can I be your patient?" Naruto unexpectedly asked.
"What the hell?! When did you get in here?" Sakura looked at him in a bemused expression.
"Huh? I was here the whole time! Wasn't I Hinata-chan?" Naruto objected.
"A-actually I didn't notice you were here either…" Hinata shyly replied.
"What?! Am I here?! Can anyone see me?!" Naruto hysterically yelled.
"Everyone can dobe, if you keep shouting like a dumbass." Sasuke teased.
"I'm not dumb! How did I get into this school then?"
"Bribery." Sakura and Sasuke both said in unison.
"What?! I didn't bribe them! I don't even have a mother who wants to bribe me into getting into a brainy high school!"
"Sshh, Naruto, I can hear you from the hallway." Kakashi suddenly scolded, coming into the classroom, late again.
"See! That's another thing! Kakashi-sensei is always following me around!"
"When will the loudmouth end?" Sakura moaned.
"Not until I get a theory!" Naruto yelled back.
"Well you better get in detention!" Tsunade suddenly appeared in the classroom.
"What?! Tsunade baa-chan here? Is something wrong with today?" Naruto screeched back.
"I came here to shut you up so SHUT UP!!!" Tsunade bellowed.
Naruto piped down.
"Sheesh, I could hear you from here all the way to my office." Tsunade groaned, walking back.

Sakura Seasons – A New Year
"OHAYO MINNA!!!" Naruto screamed as soon as he got in the gates.
"SHUT THE HELL UP NARUTO OR I'LL TEAR YOUR VOCALS APART!!!" Tsunade shouted at the top of her voice.
Naruto gulped and crept to the group with Hinata. Tsunade whispered curses as she got back inside with Shizune behind her sweatdropping.
"Will that shut you up now Naruto?" Sakura asked.
"No. She's out now so I CAN SCREAM AS LOUD AS I WANT!!!" Naruto shouted, walking into the academy.
"WELL NOW I CAN'T HEAR!" Tenten yelled, also walking inside the academy.
"WELL NEITHER CAN I!" Sakura frustrated shouted trailing the two.
"Well I'm half deaf now but I can't be bothered to shout" Sayaka stated, also going in.
"W-wait!" Hinata hesitantly called out as she ran after her.
"Girls, they're troublesome when they're screaming." Shikamaru unexpectedly stated who just came in.
"Yeah…" The boys chorused before going inside.
"WHAT DID YOU SAY?!" Ino screeched as she came back in through the gates.
The boys cowardly ran inside as Ino chased after them.
