Chapter Three: Waking Up Next to You

Wow. Just... Wow.

I can't believe we just did that. But we really did. And it was amazing.

I kinda expected all that extra energy Naruto had would transfer into the bedroom, but I wasn't expecting anything like that. I mean, sure it was both of our first times, but I can definitely say that nobody else could ever come close to measuring up to that. He's still asleep. I can't really blame him, either. Poor guy's exausted. And he's cute when he's asleep.

I pressed a kiss to his forehead, and now he's smiling. I can't believe I went so long without him. Although, in retrospect, I never could imagine life without him. But after last night, that statement takes on a whole new meaning.

No kidding, my inner self teased. Considering you two just had sex and all, your relationship is certainly going to be different.

Yeah, I know. But it's a good kind of different, I think. I know that it was certainly worth the risk.

Just like I said. You should really listen to me more often.

I have no choice but to bow to you in complete submission.

'Bout time.

You woukln't believe how good it feels to be here, next to Naruto. I'd be happy forever if we could just stayu in this exact moment, just like we are now for the rest of our lives. To think, all this time that nagging feeling in the pit of my stomach Naruto caused was love. I'll tell you one thing. I know I never felt like this towards Sasuke.

I can't wait to see the look on his face when he finds out you and Naruto hooked up.

Want to know a secret? Neither can I. I hope he's crushed. God knows he deserves it, after all the bullshit he's pulled. Oh, I don't really mean that. He's still important to me as a friend. But just once I'd love to see that heartbroken look he's inflicted so many times on his face for once.

Heh. You're my hero.

I'm honored. Really.

What about your parents? Aren't they gonna be pissed?

Shit. I never thought of that. My parents still think Naruto's trouble. When I tell them we're together they're gonna freak. They'll disown me! I'm screwed!

It was worth it, wasn't it?

Oh hell yeah. I know they'll react badly, but I won't not be with Naruto. Mom and Dad can scream till they're faces are blue if they want. The fact is, I'm with Uzumaki Naruto for better or for worse.

Uzumaki Sakura has a nice ring to it.

You're right. It kinda does. But I'm not ready to even consider settling down. I mean, yeah, I love Naruto, but we're way to young to even consider getting married.

I can't wait to tell everyone we hooked up!

Hinata's going to be sooo jealous! She only just admitted she had feelings for Naruto. Not that it wasn't obvious in the way she loses touch with reality whenever he walks into a room. It's kind of sad, really.

Hi pot. I'm kettle. You're black.

What is that supposed to mean?

Think about it. How'd you used to act whenever you saw Sasuke?

...

Oh my god, you're right. Ugh, I was really one of his obsessed stalker- slash-fangirls, wasn't I? How could Naruto put up with me all this time? He's such a sweet guy, and he deserves a lot better than me. But all the same, I know he's as glad we're together as I am. God, I sooo don't deserve him.

"Mmm... Hey Sakura-chan." Naruto's awake? This early? Naruto's never awake this early, unless he has a mission. Wait, did he just call me Sakura-chan? That's so adorable!

"Morning, Naruto-kun." Wow, that sounded so... clumsy.

"I'd rather you just called me Naruto." If someone could bottle that smile, they'd make millions. He looks so gorgeous when he smiles like that. And he only smiles like that for me...

I feel so special.

"Naruto." It feels so natural when he kisses me, like now. I'm so glad we're together... "Last night was... wow."

"Yeah." You know, if he was smiling any wider, he'd probably pull muscles. "It really was, wasn't it?"

"Mmm-hmm." He's nothing like the Naruto I thought I knew. It turns out, deep down, he's the same Naruto I had a crush on when I was nine. I guess that makes sense, though. He's gazing out the window now, a cute little half-smile dancing across his lips.

"Check out the sunrise, Sakura-chan." The almost musical baritone of his voice once again startled me. I really have to stop staring at him. "I don't think I've ever seen one quite like it. It's beautiful, don't you think?"

He's right. There are so many colors in the sky, and it all blends together to create a truly breathtaking view. "It's amazing."

"It can't even begin to hold a candle to you, though." That's so sweet! Cheesy, but sweet. I can feel my face heating up. "My, Sakura-chan, are you blushing?" I know what'll take his mind off me blushing.

He didn't look surprised when I kissed him. He didn't even look surprised when I started sucking on his tongue. He did, however, look surprised when I bit down.

"Whay'd you do that, Sakura-chan?" He's pouting now. And it's a full-blown, teary-eyed, puppydog pout. I don't know how long I can hold out.

"Don't tease me." My voice had this thick, sugary sweetness about it, and Naruto grinned at me playfully. "I should really head home, Naruto. My parents'll be up soon, and they'll be pissed if I'm not home."

"Aww." He's pouting again, though there's a mischevious glint to his eyes. "But what about 'breakfast'?" The playful note to his voice leaves no question as to what kind of 'breakfast' he wants.

"Sorry, Naruto. I really can't." I feel so bad. He looks upset.

"Alright." His voice sounds resigned. "Come by later?" You can't stay, Sakura. No matter how cute he is, your parents'll be pissed if you're not home. Think of the consequences!

I've said it before, and I'll say it again.

"On second thought, Naruto, 'breakfast' sounds great."

To hell with the consequences.

Besides, what's a couple more hours anyway?

A/N: And chapter three draws to a close. I do plan on writing more... One more chapter like this, then I'm going to switch to a third person narrative, and the story will really begin. As always, read and review and you'll get the next chapter sooner.
