"Hokage-sama" *knock* "Hokage-sama!" *knock*
Several knocks can hear from outside the Hokage's office.
It's early in the morning when Sakura founds her self sitting at her very own seat, inside the Hokage's office.
Ahh! Yes I didn't go home last night.
She fixed herself up and let out a deep sigh.
"What is it?"
She yelled.
"Hokage-sama, there's a little bit of riot near the gate An (あん )"
The shinobi reported.
She immediately rose on her seat and get her "Who cause it?"
She put on her Hokage cloak and Hat and walks toward the door.
He straightened his body and give Sakura a Salute "It's better to see for yourself Hokage-sama."
"Well it better be not Naruto. Because I'm telling you, I don't get enough of sleep today. Again."
She cursed under her breath.
"OOHHHHHHH! That's the power of YOUTH! Go with the force of your yooooouth!"
Rock-lee was pump up at cheering Naruto.
Tenten not far from her teammate, stops lee's Cheering "Lee stop yelling!"
"What's happening here?"
Kiba asked.
"There's a people gathered around here, maybe because there's someone's causing a fight."
Shino explained.
"Kiba, Shino!"
Tenten greets the Team 8 she look behind the two men "Where's Hinata?"
Shino asnwered the question "She's busy. Because she was talking to her family about the upcoming wedding."
"It's too early for some riot. What a drag."
Team 10 have arrive from the place.
There you can See, Shikamaru yawning, Ino and chouji eating some potato chips.
"We should call Hokage-sama."
Sai said walking away from the riot.
"You there, shinobi standing at the guard house, please report this in instance to our Hokage."
Sai commanded.
"Why should we call Hokage? Can we just fix it without Disturbing her, she haven't getting enough of sleep lately."
Ino was worried at her bestfriend.
She also thinks a small commotion like this can be fixed without the Hokage's help.
"She might missed someone if she doesn't come here."
From Sai's tone of voice, there's something on what he said.
A hidden meaning.
"Ahhh temeeeee!" Naruto yelled "Wait 'til you taste my punch!"
"Teme?"
Shikamaru straightens his body.
"Sasuke-temeeeeee!"
The foxy jinchuriki yelled.
Ino widens her eyes, she run faster as she can towards the crowd to see who caused the Riot.
There you can See Naruto and a certain man with Long black raven hair with a rag like cloak.
Could it be? S-Sasuke-kun!?
She thinks.
Sighting his familiar unique mismatched eyes, it was indeed the Last Uchiha alive.
"Sakura." That was the first thing Ino said after seeing Sasuke.
Sakura run as fast as she can towards the place.
Nearing at the designated place where the 'little bit riot' is being caused, she saw familiar teams.
Team 8, 10 and Team Gai. Also Sai was standing there speaking with Team 10.
As she heard a familiar yell.
She immediately flickers at the middle of riot and holds the wrist of two men which is she recognize first Naruto.
"It's the Hokage!"
Someone yeld.
"NA-RU-TO!."
Sakura looked at Naruto fiercely, like she's ready to pummelled her old teammate.
"S-aku- I-I mean Hokage-sama!?"
Naruto was surprised on Sakura's appearance.
"What the heck are you doing! It's too early to cause a riot this MORNING!"
She hissed.
After she lectured Naruto, she released Naruto's wrist.
She slowly turn to the other man she's holding.
She lifts her head slightly because the man in front of her was a bit tall from her. And because of her Hokage Hat she can't barely see the man's face.
She plastered the same face she make several years ago when she was running toward her new teammate Sai.
She harshly grab Sai's collar and asks what his motive.
She clearly remember that day,
The way that man says her Name.
It's. . . Sasuke.
She immediately released the wrist she's holding knowing who is it.
She turned her back at Sasuke and face the shinobi who ask her to come in here.
"You call me for this?. . ."
She clucked her tongue up out of her frustation.
She stormed away from the scene and before Sasuke call her name,
A thick cloud appear from where she stands.
A log appeared after the clouds vanished.
Kawarimi.
What the hell was that! Why is he here?
Back to her office, Sakura was messed up interally and Externally.
Kuso! Why is this happening to me?
She can't understand clearly what he scroll says because many things was in her getting on her mind.
A single knock was heard from her door.
"I'm busy right now. Whatever it is you can just leave it right in front of the door."
She said enough to hear her from the other side of the door.
A Single knock was engage again.
Ignore Sakura. It will stop if you ignore it.
*knock*
*knock*
*knock*
There are pregnant pause every knock.
Her patience was out of her hand.
She get up from her seat and hard sound of her heels where clicking every step she made.
She harshly open the door ready to knock out who ever it is disturbing her.
She Immediately close the door after seeing who it is.
The man who's been hunting her mind lately.
None other than Uchiha Sasuke.
The door slowly open half way but she stops it.
But Sasuke insists on opening the door.
They're like a little kid fighting over the door.
Sakura lately gives in, leaving the door halfway open.
He enters the Hokage's office while Sakura silently watch him.
After he enters the room, she walks towards her desk and sit on her chair.
"Make it quick. I have many things to do. You see. . ."
She didn't need to explain what she said because Scattered pile of papers were laying above her desk.
"Sakura. . ." That recognition . . "I didn't know you became Hokage, no one informed me. . . Even Naruto."
He intently stares at Sakura, memorizing her look.
Long pale pink hair was tied on her back,
Her face was more feminine last time he saw her,
Her plump lips, Her remarkable Yin seal on the middle of her forehead.
She looks so different. He thinks.
"Yeah, many things happened while you're gone. I ask Naruto not to."
She answered simply.
"Why?"
He look at her wearing expressionless face at all.
"It has nothing to do with you."
There's a hint of coldness in her voice.
"Hn" Nothing to do with me huh.
That's his very own line to her the day leaves the Konoha for atonement of his sins.
He smirks upon hearing what she just said.
Sakura acts he's an other person "Is that all? If there's nothing more important you may now leave."
She pressed her lips firmly.
And Sasuke saw the way her lips form a firm line.
Sasuke sats at the chair in front of Sakura's desk "Ahh. I would like to report upon my journey. After all this is a lifetime mission Kakashi agreed with."
"If it's necessary. Let me hear it."
She place her elbow above her desk to towered her chin upon her hand.
And look directly to his mismatched eyes. One of his eye which is the Rineggan, was covered by his long black hair while his black orb eyes can be seen clearly.
He states his report at Sakura, and she only nodded in return to look like she's listening but half of her mind was floating somewhere.
She wasn't looking directly at him now because of the tension she feels,
She sometimes look at his hair or sometimes the things behind him just to avoid his gaze.
"-And I think that would be needed in that country. That's all."
Sasuke end they're Mission discussion there.
"Great, then I should visited Sunagakure soon? Got it, I'll tell it to Shikamaru."
Sakura mentioned her assistant.
"Do you need an escort?"
He asked.
"No need. You've just returned here in Konoha so stay here and relax here as much as you can."
She beams a smile.
Smile that Sai once recognize.
Sai doesn't even know how to express emotions but Sai manage to decipher Sakura's smile.
"So that's it. It's good to see you here Uchiha."
Hearing to be called on his Surname by Sakura makes him cringes. But he didn't budge to show it in front of her.
"Ahh. I'm back."
He mutters.
"Then you're now dismiss."
Sakura turns her attention on the scroll in front of her.
Seconds later, she look up to see that Sasuke Uchiha was still there sitting in front of her desk.
Sakura cocked her head "Is there something bothering you?"
Silence fills the room for about seconds.
"Uchi-"
Before she could continue to call him again by his surname he cut her off "Say my first name."
"Was that nece-"
"Say it."
"It's not ne-"
"Say it. Sakura."
She can feel his gaze piercing through her body.
In instance he was standing in front of her,
He bents down to the sitting Hokage,
"What are you doing Uchih-"
Before she could ever finish her sentence, he shut her mouth up by smashing his lips harshly to her lips.
He kissed her.
He leans back to broke the kiss he engaged.
She's shocked.
You can tell by the way her eyes widens.
"You will call me by my name, Sa-ku-ra"
