Jaded Sakura Blossoms

Chapter 8: Breakfast

By: Wings (of Chaos)

Thump!

            Thump!

            Emerald eyes snapped open to the sound of a ruckus going on from her window. She rubbed her eyes softly wondering who could be there at the time of the morning. The girl leaned over in her bed and opened the window. Across from the window was a tree with outlaying branches that could touch her window. And on the tree were two genins. One very happy blonde boy and one very annoyed yet tired raven haired boy were there.

            "What are you doing here?" Sakura hissed quietly. She didn't want to wake her mother; she could get the wrong idea…

            "Ask the dobe," Sasuke replied just as softly.

            "Well, I wanted…some breakfast…and I'm poor and Sasuke won't buy me any ramen," Naruto tried to explain although it turned out more like a whine.

            Sakura sighed. She couldn't leave them outside or the neighbors might get the wrong idea.

            "Come in, come in," Sakura urged, she moved out of the way so the boys could jump in.

            Sasuke went in first, gracefully landing on the sill and crawling into the window. Once Sasuke was clear, Naruto prepared to jump. The boy jumped but the branch couldn't support his weight and dipped a little. Naruto didn't expect this and almost lost his balance. In a last ditch effort he jumped.

            Mrs. Haruno thought she heard something crash into the side of the house. 'It couldn't be the trees,' she thought. Although trees were dangerously close to the house they wouldn't be able to produce such a sound. Mrs. Haruno was making breakfast when she suddenly heard a loud thump from upstairs. From Sakura's room. 'What could she be doing at this time of the morning?'

            With their combined effort Sasuke and Sakura managed to pull Naruto in. He managed to grab the window sill before he crashed to the ground. Sakura tugged a little too hard which made her fall back to her plush white carpet.

            "Ow," Sakura emitted quietly. She hoped her mother didn't hear the racket that was produced from Naruto's rescue.              

            Naruto took a deep breath; he would never ever do that again. Next time he would take the front door.

            Sasuke went to help Sakura off the floor. He held out a hand and pulled her up then he put a protective hold on her waist. Sasuke sighed tiredly, he didn't want to get up this early but Naruto wouldn't go away if he didn't come with him. He leaned his head on her shoulder, then wrapped his other arm around her.

            "What's wrong?" the pink haired girl asked. Sasuke usually doesn't act this even in front of Naruto.

            "Tired," he said simply and buried his head into her shoulder. Sakura nodded in understanding, who wouldn't be tired from waking up at some ungodly hour of the morning.

            "Awww…" Naruto started loudly but was shushed by Sakura. Her mother really didn't need to know that two guys were in her bedroom.

            "Sakura!?" Mrs. Haruno called. She started walking up the stairs ready to check on her daughter also to wake her.

            "Sakura," she said quietly as she got nearer to the door. She heard a commotion and hushed voices. 'Is Sakura hiding something from me again?' she thought.

            "Sakura…" Mrs. Haruno said again as she opened the door. She knew that Sakura wouldn't hide something and she wasn't that kind of girl…but the sight that greeted her was…interesting.

            A boy with raven hair had his arm wrapped around Sakura's waist his head buried deep in her neck and her pink hair. There was a blonde boy sitting on her bed panting.

            "Sakura? What are these guys doing here?" Mrs. Haruno asked. She wasn't angry but surprised.

            Sakura tried to turn to face her mother but Sasuke was weighing her down. "Sasuke," she prodded, "Can you get off of me? My mom is here."

            Slowly, Sasuke managed to get off of the girl yet kept one arm around her waist. Mrs. Haruno raised an eyebrow. 'So, this must be Sakura's boyfriend…was he the one from a few nights ago?' she wondered.

            "Uh…mom," Sakura said nervously, "This isn't what you think."

            "Oh," Mrs. Haruno said suspiciously, "I know what's going on here. And I want to say…Good job! You make me so proud!"

            "Wha?"

            "I mean who could resist my daughter. And you got the two cutest guys," Sakura's mother squeaked.

            Realization just dawned on Mrs. Haruno's daughter. 'No…no, no, nonononono!'

            "Mom!" Sakura whined her face turning red.

            "Okay, okay. I'll just leave you three. Once you guys are done, come down for breakfast…okay?" Mrs. Haruno said while she bounced out of the door.

            Naruto stared at the closed door in amazement. "Sakura," he finally said, "Your mom is weird and…did she just imply something that I really didn't want to know?"

            "Yes, Naruto," Sakura said through clenched teeth, "This is what I go through everyday. Now, if you want breakfast get out of here so I can get dressed."

            She pushed the boys out of the room so she could get some privacy. Naruto made a lewd comment about her and Sasuke which earned him a smack to the head. Sakura gave Sasuke a small peck on the cheek then finally closed the door.

            The blonde haired boy shook his head and turned to find Mrs. Haruno leaning against the far wall. "So, she kicked you out eh?"

            "Well, she needed to get dressed. We didn't want to watch her maybe Sasuke will…"

            "Shut up," Sasuke said curtly his eyes half way closed.

            Mrs. Haruno chuckled at the blonde boy's antics, "I assume you guys didn't have breakfast so come downstairs to eat."

            "Yay! Breakfast!" Naruto hollered as he skipped down the stairs. Sasuke merely dragged his feet following an ecstatic Naruto.

*~*Sakura's Room*~*

            Sakura sighed as she tried to find clothes to wear for the day. 'I can't believe Naruto would come here so early.' She glanced at the clock it read 6:00. 'I could have slept for another 30 minutes. Stupid Naruto.'

            She picked up a discarded sleeveless black shirt and cargo capris. The girl pulled out some undergarments from her chest of drawers and headed to the bathroom. She hoped that the boys were elsewhere. Sakura tiptoed quietly to the bathroom and got ready for the day.

            Once done preparing herself she raced back to her room, retrieved her headband and walked downstairs. She heard Naruto talking about his amazing ramen discovery. She shook her head, 'Naruto will never know.'

            Padding down the stairs she greeted her mother with a small 'hey' and sat down next to Sasuke. "What's for breakfast?" she asked. Her answer was a hot plate of waffles.

            "Shor mofm mafkes goo waffles," Naruto said through a mouthful. Sakura winced at the sight of chewed up waffle bits but smiled and nodded.

            Sasuke was eating his portion politely and slowly unlike his other comrade. Mrs. Haruno commented on Sasuke's behavior. The raven haired boy nodded.

            Once the three were done Sakura slipped on her black sandals and headed to the door with other two before her. Before she left she issued a quick glare to her mother, then left her small house.

Heh…gotta love Sakura's mom. Anyway, next chapter is on the final dance and…all that crazy stuff. School is getting weird especially CA and its stupid imagery essay crap. Until next time!
