So I decided for now to just type each chapter and not worry about length. I want to work on my writing skills more than the length at the moment. I hope that's okay. Hopefully my writing has improved a lot in the years I hadn't been uploading. Let me know if you have any suggestions.

I rest my back against the door trying to catch my breath. "Did this really just happen." Groaning I took in my surroundings. It was a decent size bathroom, nothing too extraordinary but still better than what I had in my own room. Guess you couldn't expect much decoration considering who owned this bathroom. "What happened last night?" I have no idea how I ended up in bed with Gaara. "I was at the party, Naruto and I were drinking, then…. I wasn't sure." I know Gaara was there but I don't remember leaving with him.

I leaned my head back against the door and groaned again. Today would not be my day. I just hoped a shower would make it tolerable. Heading towards the shower I saw my reflection in the mirror. My hair was a tangled mess, the little makeup I had on was smeared across my skin, and the dark circles under my eyes didn't help with anything. Turning the shower on I waited for it to reach the desired temp before stepping in. The water felt refreshing after the morning I had been having.

Naruto should be here for at least another day before heading back to Konoha. Maybe he can help me figure out what happened. With that thought in mind I hurried up with my shower and headed out of the bathroom.

Thankfully Kankuro and Gaara were gone because I did not want to deal with that situation again. It was embarrassing enough just to be found in his bedroom. "Should I leave thru the front door or...the window?" The window would be safer and that way I don't run the risk of running into his siblings.

I opened the window and leapt out, Naruto's room being my destination. Knock, knock. "Naruto." Knock, knock. "Open up." I peered into the window and on the bed was Naruto passed out half hanging off his bed. "Naruto!" I started banging on the window. "Wake up!"

I startled him awake and he fell off his bed. Knock, knock. "Sakura?" Naruto had a confused look on his face when you opened the window. "What are you doing here?"

"I uh was wondering what happened last night.." I paused. "At the uh party. Did you see me leave with anyone?"

"Leave with anyone? Who would you have left with?" He looked confused until he realized I was still wearing my clothes from yesterday.

He looked like he was about to say something but I quickly cut him off. "N-no one in particular. I was just wondering what you thought of the uh party and the u-uh um ramen."

His eyes lit up and he started talking about how we showed up together, that the ramen was amazing, how we got into the drinking battle. "I shouldn't be surprised that you can drink so much considering Tsunade did train you. When I woke up you were gone. Figured you went home."

I sighed hoping to learn something but instead I learned nothing. "Thanks Naruto." I went to leave when he grabbed my arm.

"Are you sure everything's okay?" Sometimes I forget that Naruto wasn't the same as when we were younger. He still had his more childish moments but he had grown a lot.

"Yeah I'm fine. Just need to think about some things." I gave him a small smile before heading out the door to my own room.

Closing the door to my room I fell on the bed and closed my eyes.

Lips against mine, clothes falling on the floor. My back pressed against the wall. Hands trailing down my side and I knew I wanted more.
