Disclaimer: You know what I mean.
Author's Notes: Thanks for all the support! I don't know whether to turn
this into a Saku/ Naru Saku/ Sasu or a Saku/ Kaka fic, so please tell me!
(Or maybe I will make this a longer series, w/ a bit of everyone one at a
time?)
* * *
Sakura sighed as she lay on her bed, the moonlight lightly shining through
her window.
"I don't get it. Why would that perverted sensei want to kiss ME? I'm not
like that. I love Sasuke-kun, not some guy who's, like, ten years older
than me!" She rolled over onto her side.
"Naruto. I'm not really sure about him anymore. He really likes me, and is
sweet about it (when he isn't calling me his babe!). He never had a family,
so doesn't know how to direct his feelings. But despite his efforts to be
cool and powerful, he's just a screw-up in life. But he tries so hard! And
I know he would take care of me if I ever needed him."
* * *
She felt the cool sea breeze ruffle her hair, and the dying sunlight warm
her skin. Waves gently lapped at her feet, and her emerald eyes closed
dreamily. She rested her head on his shoulder, and sighed contentedly as he
gently rubber her back.
"Sakura-chan." he asked, his voice soft and sincere.
"Hm?" she replied sleepily.
"We had a great day, eh? I mean, coming to the beach and all," he said,
slightly nervous. "And I was just thinking that. maybe we could do this all
again someday." She looked up at his hopeful face that was so close to
hers.
"I would like that very much," she responded happily as nuzzled her head
comfortably on his shoulder.
" I mean. this is all like a dream to me. finally getting to be with you."
the boy said meekly.
"It is for me, too," she interjected, moving her lips to his in a kiss.
He tasted like miso ramen! Naruto! You could at least brush your teeth
better before kissing someone!
* * *
Sakura woke up with a jolt, inwardly screaming at the frightening dream.
"Ack! My lips were touching Naruto's? EEEWWW!!!" she cried, gagging before
she settled herself back down.
"Hmmm. now Sasuke-kun would be a great boyfriend, I'm sure. He is cold and
mean to me now, but I know that once I express my true feelings, he will
sweep me off my feet in a perfect kiss!" She sighed.
"Well, maybe not that much, but at least he'll realize how much I care, and
just maybe will say that he loves me too." She glanced at the clock, which
read 1:03 AM.
"I know that he's had a tough life, but all he needs is a little lovin' to
set him straight! Damn right" she reassured herself, shifting comfortable
under the covers.
* * *
"Sasuke-kun, good morning!" she cried happily, waving to the dark-haired
boy who just walked over to the meeting place.
"Eh." he said, giving her a slight smile before settling himself on a rock
to wait.
She gazed at him admiringly, noting his gentle face, sleek hair, and
comfortable pose. She loved everything about him.swoon.
"Sakura?" said a dark voice suddenly, startling the girl. She looked up at
Sasuke, who had moved without her noticing and was now right in front of
her.
"Yes, Sasuke-kun?" she said gleefully, her heart beating furiously.
"May I speak with you in private for a moment?" he inquired, his voice
showing only the faintest hint of warmth.
"Of course, Sasuke-kun!" she said, her Inner Self leaping up and down in
ecstasy.
She followed him into the shelter of the nearby trees, despite Naruto's
angry yells and protests. Sasuke leaned against a tree, and Sakura stood
next to him.
"Wh-what is it, Sasuke-kun?" she asked gently. She looked at him, and was
taken aback by the fact that he was looking at her. Deeply.
"I know that, well. you've liked me since were little," he started, pausing
slightly. "And I just want you to know that I like you too."
Sakura blushed deeply, her Inner Self passing out from joy.
"I was wondering. maybe we could meet up sometime." he continued, while
Sakura froze herself, waiting for the rest.
"S-Sure, Sasuke-kun! I would love that!" she replied shyly, already
thinking of what to wear.
"Good. Meet me here at 9:00 tonight." With that, he walked back to the
meeting spot.
THAT NIGHT
Sakura made sure she looked nice, and headed out the door. Each footstep
brought her closer to her one true love, Uchiha Sasuke.
Inner Sakura was celebrating as she reached the spot and found Sasuke
waiting. He eyes her questioningly.
'Are those clothes really comfortable?" he asked, noting her skirt and nice
shirt.
"Um. yeah? Why, Sasuke-kun?" she replied nervously.
"Well, when I said meet up. I meant for training!"
* * *
Sakura popped her eyes open.
"Oh my god. what is with me tonight? So many romantic dreams!" she said,
looking at her clock, which now read 3:19 AM. "But I had Sasuke." she
crooned, drooling.
"Ack! I better not start thinking about Kakashi-sensei, or I'll dream about
him! But maybe underneath that ask he is really hot. He's a tough guy
though. Mysterious, frickin' perverted." She involuntarily drifted off to
sleep.
* * *
"Sakura. wake up," said her silver-haired teacher as he shook the girl's
shoulders until she woke up. "When you didn't return from the mission, we
all got worried."
Sakura moaned and rubbed her eyes as they adjusted to the dim light that
remained. She shifted uncomfortably as she realized that she was up against
a tree.
"Wha-?" she interjected sleepily.
"Were you attacked?" he asked worriedly, looking her over briefly for signs
of struggle.
"No, I think I'm okay. what's going on?" she replied, yawning.
"Uh. do you remember?" Sakura shook her head.
"I sent you guys out to the forest," he said, motioning to the trees around
them. "You were whining about how early it was, and how you shouldn't have
to go find a pet cat." The man said, not realizing that he still had his
hands on her shoulders.
"You must have fallen asleep. I sent Sasuke and Naruto home, because it is
getting late. Naruto was practically wetting himself with worry."
"Er, sensei? Do you mind letting go of my shoulders?" she asked, coming
back to her senses. He let go, finally noticing his grip on the girl.
"Oi. get up. I'll walk you home," said the sensei. He stretched out a
gloved hand to her, helping her up.
The two walked out of the forest, towards the girl's house. It was silent,
both trying to absorb the evening atmosphere. Until they reached the
house, that is, which was dark and empty.
"Your parent's aren't home?" Kakashi asked, mild interest in his tone of
voice.
"Nah, they aren't home much," the pink-haired girl replied. She noticed,
with slight discomfort, that the teacher was staring at her.
"Er. sensei? What is it?" she asked nervously.
"I need you to do me a favor, Sakura. Close your eyes."
"Um. okay." Sakura closed her eyes nervously.
She suddenly felt hit lips on her own, a hand holding the back of her head,
and another hand on her waist. She tried to squirm away. But all the energy
she had from sleeping seemed to melt away as she fell slightly limp in his
arms. After about a minute, he let her go.
"Erm. yeah. training tomorrow, and I won't bother to tell you where,
because you'll be sick by then," said the teacher.
"Eh?" asked Sakura dreamily.
"Well. I'd wanted to do that for a long time, but." he sniffed, and
suddenly sneezed. "I've had a cold for the past week."
* * *
Sakura woke up with her alarm, screaming.
"WHAT THE HELL DID THAT TEACHER DO TO ME?! Invading my mind!" she shrieked
as she got ready to leave for training.
"Although. maybe he does kiss that nice."
