Chapter 3 - Home coming
"Hey… Sasuke-kun, Naruto Matte!" Ino tags along with them.
"Ino… Still following Sasuke! I'll report that to Shika-" Naruto teased her.
Bam
"AWW…" Naruto caresses his aching head. Ino just smirk at him.
"Naruto did you see Hinata roaming around here? I'm looking for her" Naruto looks at her. "huh? What did you say Ino?" veins pop up in her head. "NARUTO! Pay attention" she shrieked. Sasuke walks away from the two noisy shinobi.
"Wait… Sasuke-kun… Have you seen Hinata?" she asked him. "'COZ SOMEONE DUMBASS OUT HERE DOESN'T CARE ANSWERING…" she switched her attention to Naruto.
"…"
"Sasuke-kun?"
"…"
"I hate this… I'm going to tell good news-
"We haven't noticed her" Sasuke answer shortly, before walking away.
"Okay… Where is that girl" Ino walks away too, looking for Hinata.
"Wait… Ino… what is the good news? Is it 'bout Ramen?" Naruto is already drooling just thinking about ramen.
"hmp… Never mind it seems you don't care" she crosses her arms.
"Come on… tell it to me…" he is following her like a puppy.
"Oh… I think I already found them…" Ino noticed her two best girl friends, forgettting what news she's going to tell. Naruto looks around and founds Hinata talking to a pink haired girl.
'pink'
"what is it Sakura-chan?" she curiously asked
"Oh.. Nothing… you know I'm seeing two blondes walking towards us" she smiled nervously. Ino is somewhat upset maybe because Hinata left her then didn't come back. Naruto however wears a dumbfounded, shocked face.
'pink'
"SAKURA-CHAN! You're back" he approached her with wide arms and attempts to bear hug her. But he only made contact to air, he lose his balance and fall squarely on his face. "Are you okay? Naruto-kun?" Hinata asked him worriedly. Naruto stands up with thumbs up as if nothing happened. "No need to worry Hinata-chan"
"Ahh… Naruto? where's Sasuke-kun?" Ino looked for him but no- Mr. Uchiha Sasuke around.
"Maybe he already headed home…" Hinata guessed.
"Oh no… That bastard! Leaving the reporting to me… grrr" Naruto is complaining again, it happened once then Sasuke made it a habit leaving the reporting to him.
"Ok… I have to go and meet old lady… Ja ne.. Oh wait" he was about to leave when he sneak a kiss on Hinata's cheek leaving her as red as a tomato,before he disappeared.
"Am I missing something here Ms. Hyuuga Hinata" Sakura grinned suspiciously at her.
"Ah.. eh.. S-Sa-kura-cha-a-n" she stammering, fidgeting her dress.
"Soon-to-be… Uzumaki Hinata" Ino teased her, Hinata is all red now. "Ino!" Hinata elbowed her.
"You mean?" Sakura is dubious. Ino nods as an 'yes'
"Really? Wow... I was gone for a while then i dont know I'm already missing something here" Sakura commented.
"I hahaha can't believe hahaha it" now she is hysterically laughing very hard. "anyway you're lucky to have him" she stopped laughing. This made Hinata redden more. "I mean he makes an ideal man... though he is still childish. but i'm serious" Sakura and Naruto become friends since they were still in the academy, so she really knows everything about him.
"What took you so long?" dark-haired ANBU emerges from the darkness. He is there for almost minutes waiting for him blonde teammate to come.
"Oh… there you are... I thought youre going to leave me all alone again... reporting to the old lady" he made a teary puppy eyes, exagerating his emotions. "Anyway...Have you noticed any 'pink' here? Sasuke-teme?" Naruto smirk, by the judge of his onyx eyes he is indeed clueless about the home coming of their pinkheadteammate
"What do you mean?" Sasuke utter without any idea in his mind.
"Never mind… Let's go" Sasuke is still looking at him suspiciously 'what pink' I don't get it'
"Ja ne… Okaeri Sakura-chan" they bid their goodbye to her.
"Sakura don't forget the fest ha? It's the day after tomorrow" she nods.
'its nice to be here again… I missed them all, I wonder if Sasuke-kun already knew about my arrival… hmm I'm lucky to have friends like them they're the…best Whoaaa... This day is so tiring i want to lay down on my soft bed slowly drifting to sleep or feeling theevery warmth of theSakura was snapped out of her thought when…
"OUCH! Watch where you're going, Bastard" her Inner self burst out. She's rubbing her tender ass. 'Bastard…Not looking on his way…I'm gonna kill you for this' She really loves her full, cute butt and if this fall made a scratch even a single scratch...
"You okay?" he offered a hand. His voice is deep and very masculine
"Do you think I'm…o..ka…y" she was taken a back.
"You okay?" pair of pearl eyes looks warmly at her. She bowed down, embarrassed at her sudden reaction. Suddenly Neji grabs her wrist and drag her.
"Uhmm… Neji-kun where are we going?" Neji becomes one of her close friend, they trained together and sometimes he is her sparring partner.
"Wow… I can see stars clearly…"she lay down on the field. Neji is staring at the dark sky above them. They used to do this after they're training if they end up late.
Silence...
"I see you're back… Sakura" he break the silence between them. He looked at her and found out that she already sleeping.
"hn." her eyes are closed, she looks so tired. Neji look intently at her sleeping form. 'She's so innocent… Just like she used to be' He puts his arm under her head as a head support. Since she left he usually spends his time watching the stars or training his taijutsu aloneuntil drowsiness visits him. And this time he spends his time with 'his' Sakura
"Welcome back… Sakura-chan" he murmured. Sakura is so close to him breathing in his masculine scent. Suddenly he placed a soft kiss on her forehead and hugged her lightly.
