Valentines Day- Chapter 4

Kakashi's chores…

Kakashi assigned each of them to each individual task. Naruto had to pull out weeds, Sasuke had to do the laundry while Sakura went to do the shopping. Half an hour later, they had finished their assigned task and began to clean the house from top to bottom.

Sakura dusted while Naruto and Sasuke wiped the floors.

Sasuke was half concentrating on the task while Naruto on the other hand was looking forward to his ramen treat.

Naruto was wiping the kitchen floor when Sasuke dashed past him and into the dining room.

Naruto growled.

'That Sasuke-bastard! I'm not going to lose to him!' he thought as his eyes flared up into flames. Then he had an idea. (A light bulb popped above his head XP)

"Oi! Sasuke-Bastard!" Naruto yelled out to Sasuke.

Sasuke was half concentrating on his task while the other half was pondering about what was going to happen tomorrow. When he heard Naruto's call, he came back into reality.

"What now Dobe?" he replied in his monotone though a bit annoyed about Naruto breaking his train of thoughts.

"DON'T CALL ME A DOBE!" Naruto yelled back angrily.

"Then don't call me a bastard!"

"Grr…anyways, back to my question, wanna race?" Naruto asked in a persuasive tone as he grinned in his usual sheepish grin.

"What kinda race?" Sasuke replied as he thought: 'Good, this will help me stop thinking about tomorrow'

"A race to see who finishes cleaning the floors first and then helps Sakura to do the dusting."

"Your on! But you might as well give up now dobe, coz you're gonna lose."

Naruto's eyes emitted into flames again.

"I won't lose to a bastard like you!"

"Right back at ya"

"Fine! I'll take the kitchen and you do the dining room. Then we go down the hallway to the living room where Sakura is. Whoever gets there first is the winner.

"Whatever"

"Okay! Ready! Set! GO!"

Naruto rushed up and down the kitchen floors while Sasuke was doing the same in the dining room. Both finished their areas and were speeding up the hallway to the living room. They were running at the same pace. Getting closer to the doorway. Almost there…

Sakura had finished dusting the living room and was making her way towards the hallway.
Sasuke and Naruto were still running at top speed. A figure suddenly emerged in front of the doorway…
Sakura reached the doorway and saw two figures running towards her. Her eyes widened in shock and she screamed. "ARGH!"
Sasuke and Naruto saw who it was and they both attempted to stop but their speed was too fast. They heard Sakura's scream and…
CRASH!

The three genins were stuck between the doorway and were in a pile. With Sakura at the bottom, Sasuke on top of her (A/N: sorry if that sounds a bit wrong… dun get the wrong idea! XD) and then Naruto on top of Sasuke.

Sasuke was the first to speak apparently

"Arh! Get offa me you DOBE!"

Naruto jumped up and yelled back at Sasuke. "DON'T CALL ME DOBE!"

Sasuke got up and held out a hand to Sakura. Sakura was laying flat on the floor. She saw Sasuke offer his hand to help her up. Sakura's cheeks reddened as she took the hand and pulled herself up. Sasuke was still holding onto Sakura's hand and Sakura was doing the same. They stood there staring into one another's eyes. He looked into her emerald orbs as she gazed into his coal black ones. Hand in hand. (A/N: Aww…X3)

Sakura was the first to speak.

"Umm…You can let go of my hand now…" She blushed even more as she saw Sasuke's shocked expression of still holding onto her hand.

"Yeah…umm…sorry…" Sasuke replied as he released her soft hand from his.

Sakura looked away and touched gently the hand that was in Sasuke's a moment ago with her other one. Her cheeks reddened even more.

Sasuke looked away as his cheeks felt warm.

'She looks so cute when she blushes…am I blushing? Why didn't I let go when she was on her feet?… Her hand was so soft and smooth…and warm too...'

Naruto saw what had just happened and his jaw dropped. There he stood staring at Sasuke and Sakura, who were both blushing. He looked from one to the other and back again.

'I know that Sakura likes Sasuke-bastard…but he likes her back? What happened to his 'avenger' thing?'

Naruto began to ponder in his thought when Sasuke noticed Naruto staring at him and Sakura.

'Oh no! That dobe just saw what had happened! The dobe must know that I like Sakura! Quick! Think of something to say!'

"What are you staring at Dobe?"

Sasuke's voice woke Naruto from his train of thought. A smile crept across the fox-boy's face as he looked up at Sasuke.

'Dammit! I was right! He's going to tell Sakura… no…I wanna tell her myself! I'll have to reason with the baka…'

Before Naruto could say anything Sasuke had dragged Naruto away from Sakura and into the room so that they were out of earshot.

"HEY! What are you doing Sasuke-Bastard!"

"What do you know Naruto?" Sasuke asked quickly.

It took a few seconds before Naruto figured out what Sasuke had meant. A smirk appeared on his lips as his thoughts came back.

"You like Sakura don't you?" Naruto asked in a cheeky tone.

"Yes, now what do I have to do to stop you telling her?"

"Hmm…well, well, well! I'd never thought that I'd see you be begging me for something."

Sasuke glared at Naruto

"Come on Sasuke! You got to tell her! You've been hurting her feelings all this time when really you had feelings for her?"

"Its not that… I only found out that I had these feelings for her today." Sasuke replied truthfully.

"Are you going to tell her? You'd better coz if you don't, I will!"

"No! Don't tell her please! I want to tell her myself… and I was planning to do that tomorrow…"

"Ahh…in that case…ok then! All I ask for in return is for you to treat me to ramen! Hehe."

"Argh…Fine! Whatever baka."

Sakura heard everything. Even though the door was closed, she wasn't so stupid as to just stand where she was and wait for them to come out. Sakura had walked up to the door of the room Sasuke and Naruto were in and pressed her ear against it. She had heard everything.

'Sasuke-kun likes me? That means that I still have a chance! Phew! It was a good thing that I didn't ask Lee-san to be my Valentine. Sasuke-kun is going to tell me tomorrow that he likes me! Yay!

Sakura walked away from the door and went back to the living room and sat on the couch. Sakura giggled to herself as a smile went across her face.

'But! I must pretend that I don't know about it now… so I'd better not act happier than I usually do. And…I'd better not giggle when I see him…he'd suspect something!'

With that thought, Sakura tried to calm herself down before they came out. She returned to her usual innocent smile and was trying hard to force the joy inside her to stay inside her.

A few moments later, Sasuke and Naruto came out.

Sakura looked at Sasuke and then looked away blushing. Naruto spoke to break the silence between the three.

"Hey? Sakura? Are u finished with the dusting?"

Sakura looked back up at Naruto and her face was back to normal again.

"Yeah. Ne, where's Kakashi- sensei?"

Naruto and Sasuke just shrugged their shoulders. They heard a snoring sound coming from Kakashi's bedroom and they went to check it out. They went into the room where the snoring noise came from. There they found Kakashi sleeping on his bed with his favourite book- Come, Come Paradise resting open on top of his face. The three genins had the classical sweat drop. They had been cleaning his house from top to bottom and all Kakashi did was read his book and had fallen asleep while doing so by the looks of it. Naruto remembered Kakashi's offer of treating them to ramen after they had finished so Naruto yelled at the top of his voice, which was pretty loud, "KAKASHI-SENSEI!"

Kakashi jumped in shock at the call of the blonde haired boy. He sat up on his bed and closed his book, while looking around his room and then finally at the three genins.

"Huh? You've finished already?" Kakashi asked in a sleepy tone.

"YES!" Naruto yelled back, "Now you promised to treat us to ramen!"

"Oh, did I?"

"YES! Now get up and take us to the ramen shop!"

"Fine, fine, just stop yelling."

"YAY!" Naruto cheered. And marched out of Kakashi's room.

Sasuke and Sakura sighed and followed on after.
