Disclaimers/Authors Notes


I'm back again with a whooping quick continuation from yesterday, I got bored today so decided to write a bit more.
Once again I don't own any of the characters and stuff and don't plan to make money from it,

For the people who reviewed thanks heaps, at least no flames as of yet. But I haven't thought the story out THAT well so there will be loop holes so please bear with me.

Last Chapter

"Sasuke KUN? Since when does she call anyone with KUN behind their name? She doesn't even call Naruto with a Kun" Ino thought annoyed.

Shikamaru was thinking along the same lines, but he thought females were annoying and couldn't be bothered looking further into it so he looked up at the clouds, only to find the ceiling of the arena…."Damn" he thought " Naruto your next opponent has taken a beating, and wasn't that strong in the first place you better beat him quick so I can go look at the clouds" thought shikamaru.

"Now there will be a 1hour interval to let our fighters rest before the final match so please sit tight and we'll begin the finals shortly" explained the Announcer

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In the waiting room

"Congratulations on beating Gaara" Said Naruto as Sasuke walked back in.

Sasuke looked at him for a minute but then replied with" Thanks"

"Though the outcome might have been different if Gaara was at full power"

Sasuke looked at him angrily, but then sighed, "Not might have been different. It definitely would have been different, none of my attacks were doing any damages, and he just blew me away when I went in with my best move."

"That was the chidori right? From what I heard only one person, Copy nin Kakashi could do that move, how did you get to learn it?"

"Kakashi has been looking after me ever since I've been 10 he taught me most of the things I know along the way." Sasuke explained.

"Interesting, I may have under estimated him being trained by the legendary copy nin Kakashi would make him a formidable opponent. Though I have had training with Ino Shika Cho trio, thanks to Ino's dad, and Jiraiya every now and then when he decides to pop up, I should be able to beat him, since his low on chakra now it seems...and no one besides Gaara knows about me having 2 sources of chakra" thought Naruto.

"Hey Naruto!" a yell from the door broke him out of his thoughts
"Hey Ino chan!" replied Naruto
Ino walked in followed by Shikamaru

"What are you guys doing here?" Naruto asked,
"Well the 1hour intermission got too boring so we decided to come visit before the finals"

"I wanted to stay but she insisted we come down and visit," said Shikamaru

Naruto nodded and was curiously looking around them looking for something.

"Don't worry she'll be here soon she just went to get you a drink" Ino said

And as she finished said that Sakura walked into the room looking around, but before Naruto could call out someone beat him to it

"Hey Sakura" Sasuke said.
Sakura turned around to see Sasuke standing behind him.
"Hey Sasuke kun, nice fight against Gaara"

At the word kun Naruto raised his eyebrow to Ino and Shikamru and mouthed kun?
Shikamaru shrugged his shoulders and Ino explained,
"Apparently they're doing the same field of study at Konoha uni, they met this morning sakura mentioned before."
Naruto nodded his head in understanding but he still didn't like the fact she was calling him kun.

"So where's your boyfriend?" Sasuke asked
Sakura replied with a smirk "Oh, his around somewhere"

Ino got a puzzled look on her face, "Why is she playing games with him?" she thought.

"That must mean he must of already been knocked out so he must of not been anyone formidable." thought Sasuke.

"Well what are you doing after this? I heard there was a Konoha graduation dance, but It's pretty much an open dance, I was planning on going but didn't have anyone to show me around could you show me around?" Sasuke asked

"The nerve of this guy asking out my girlfriend when I'm sitting on the other side of the room" thought Naruto, He stood up and walked up behind Sakura and put his arms around his waist.

"And what is this lovely young lady doing in the waiting room, maybe you're a fan of mine?" Asked Naruto jokingly

Shikamaru smirked and thought "How troublesome"

"Hey Uzumaki do you mind? I was talking to Sakura," exclaimed Sasuke

Naruto looked up at Sasuke and said.
"I'm sure Sakura chan doesn't mind if I interrupt you for a minute, do you Sakura chan?" Naruto asked.

Sakura sighed mentally, when Naruto got protective, he got very protective, he reminded her of a fox protecting its litter.

"Naruto this is Sasuke, I met him this morning we'll be attending the most of the same classes at Uni, and Sasuke, meet Uzumaki Naruto, my boyfriend" Sakura explained and with that Naruto leant over to give her a kiss.

Sasuke looked surprised and thought "No wonder she said she 'might' cheer for me when I fight the defending champion, it's her boyfriend god crying out loud"

"Sorry Sasuke she won't be showing you around anywhere she'll be attending the dance with me" Naruto said.

"Oh by the way here I got you a drink Naruto" passing the drink to Naruto

" Thanks Sakura chan" He grabbed the drink and proceeded to drink it.

And they walked over to Ino and Shikamaru and were making idle chit chat, well actually it was more of Ino and Sakura talking to Naruto and Shikamaru just nodding away at what people said.

About 20min later:

Announcer " Now will the two finalists please make there way towards the arena!"

"That's our queue, I'll see you after the match" Said Naruto
"Good luck Naruto!" said Ino
"Yeha good luck" said Shikamaru

Sakura gave Naruto a quick kiss and said "Good luck Naruto" and then she looked over to Sasuke "Good luck to you too Sasuke kun"
With that she left the room.

Naruto walked over to Sasuke with his hand out. "Let the best fighter win"
Sasuke shook his hand with a smile "Would be a pleasure to fight you Naruto"

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Naruto and Sasuke both stood facing each other in the middle of the arena

Announcer "Now to see who will win the finals of the Konoha tournament, let's begin this match now!"

The two fighters looked on intently at each other trying to find an opening, finding none they both stood still waiting.

The crowd was silently watching them on, until Sasuke broke the tension by doing a set of seals then yelling "Katon Housenka" spitting out numerous fireballs towards Naruto,

Naruto rolled to the right to dodge out of the way, and the Housenka hit the ground creating a small dust of cloud to appear hiding naruto from vision.

"His got to get out of there he won't be able to see him either" thought Sasuke

True to his thoughts Naruto burst out of the smoke only to find a barrage of Kunais coming at him, focusing his chakra into his feet he dodged into the air.

"Wrong move" thought sasuke with a smirk.

Doing another set of seals his yelled "Katon Goukakyuu no jutsu "Blowing out a huge charka enhanced flame at Naruto.

"Gyaaahhhh" Naruto yelled out as his body got engulfed in the flame, and the crowd could make out the traces of Naruto in the flame getting burnt.

The crowd cheered for Sasuke who had displayed an excellent skill of tactics and trapping the enemy.

When the flame subsided in the air there was nothing there.

Sasuke was still staring into the air where he thought Naruto was only to receive a punch to the side of the face.

Naruto had made a Kage bunshin when the Housenka made a smoke screen for him and sent the Kage bunshin into the barrage of kunais and in the path of the Goukakyuu to create an opening in Sasuke's defense.

As Sasuke skidded across the ground Naruto didn't relent, he had already made 5 kage bunshins and 4 of them were sliding in from beneath,
"U-ZU-MA-KI" yelled the 4 kage bunshins as they kicked Sasuke into the air, and as the real Naruto catapulted off the last Kage bunshin he flipped into the air and yelled "RENDAN" delivering a powerful hell kick using the force from the flip as well into Sasuke making him catapult into the ground.

This time crowd cheered at the cunningness and power of Naruto who had countered perfectly all of Sasuke's tactics.

Sasuke launched out of the ground eyes blazing, he forced power into his right hand calling forth chakra to create the Chidori.
Naruto had seen this and with a look of concentration on his hand he had created a chakra vortex in his right hand making the Rasengan.

They both looked at each other Sasuke with blue bits of charka giving off the impression there was electricity sparking around his hand, and Naruto had a vortext of charka shifting the air around him.

Then without any other notice they both sprinted towards each other, thrusting all their power into their moves, Sasuke yelled out "Chidori!" while Naruto yelled out "Rasengan!"
The chakra's clashing had made another explosion blocking the two fighters from the vision of the crowd.

Sakura held her breath thinking "Please be alright Naruto."

Inside the explosion the fierce battle was still continuing.
They both stood there with there arms held out sustaining their moves, and the clashing of charka whipping out wildly creating a chakra vortex around them.

They were evenly matched until Naruto's Rasengan started drilling away at Sasuke's Chidori dissipating it.
And when the chidori was wiped away Sasuke's palm met Naruto's spiralling charka and he was sent spiralling out of the smoke.

On the outside the crowd could hear the noise of chakra whipping about and sometimes flash's of chakra between the smoke, until one section of the smoke blew away to reveal a shadow spiralling out.
The person was spinning out of control and hit the ground with a loud thud and kept skidding across it.

The crowd went silent trying to see who it was.

When they finally came to a stop it revealed to be Sasuke who was struggling to get back up on his feet.

With Sasuke disturbing the chakra vortex keeping the smoke up, the smoke slowly started to die down and it showed Naruto standing in the middle of the arena with a smile on his face.

The announcer seeing that Sasuke had given up trying to get up announced

"And the winner of the tournament 2nd year in a row is Uzumaki Naruto!"

The crowd went wild cheering him on while Naruto walked over to help Sasuke up,
"Hey I don't need your help!" Sasuke said.
"Relax Sasuke it was a good fight" replied Naruto "See the medics are coming over you won't need my help for much longer"

And the medics took Sasuke and placed him in the stretcher, but before they took him away he said " Naruto….Good fight" and smiled at him.
Naruto just smiled back and gave him a thumbs up.

Announcer" So that concludes the tournament, could Uzumaki Naruto please make your way over to the Hokage since he personally wants to have a word with you…"
With that Naruto gave a wave to the crowd and headed back towards the waiting room.
"…and everyone else, thankyou for coming today and hope you had a great time watching these contestants battle it out, see you the next time the tournament is held in Konoha! Farewell" and with that the announcer teleported out of the arena.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

While Naruto was preparing to go meet the Hokage someone knocked on the door to the waiting room.

"Come in" Naruto said.

Sakura walked in with a smile on her face, she looked at him for a moment but then ran up and jumped on him and giving him a hug.

"Woah woah, calm down Sakura chan" Naruto said.

"How can you be so calm Naruto! You just won the Konoha tournament; you've gained yourself a scholarship to Konoha University, where they'll pay you to train and study the ways of the shinobi, congratulations!" said Sakura excitedly.

"Thanks Sakura chan, I just guess it hasn't kicked in yet still got the adrenaline rush from the match." Naruto explained.

"Well I better let you go and see the Hokage - sama the quicker you go there the quicker you can get to the dance, which is only in an hours time! I have to go home and get ready!" sakura panicked.

"Okay you go home and get ready and I'll meet you there, how does that sound?" asked Naruto.

"Excellent, but make sure you save the first and last dance for me, it's our graduation and I want it to be with you ok?" asked Sakura.

"Okay I promise, now let's get going I don't want to upset the old man, dance starts at 7p.m right?" asked Naruto

Sakura nodded and gave him a quick hug and left the waiting room, while Naruto gathered his belongings and made his way to the Hokage Tower.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hokage Tower

Knock Knock

"Come in" Said the 3rd Hokage.

"Hey old man how's things?" asked Naruto casually.

The hokage chuckled silently and thought "After all these years he's the only one who treats me on the same level as everyone else, no respect at all, but that's what I like about him".

"First of all congratulations Naruto for winning the tournament, I saw the match and you've certainly come along very nicely since you've been 13." Stated the Hokage

"Thanks old man, but what is this meeting about? Sorry but I'm sort of in a rush and need to be somewhere" explained Naruto

"Ho ho ho , the Konoha graduation dance right? Don't worry my boy I won't take too much of your time, I was just curious as to wether you've decided to go to Konoha University or take up your trainingship offer with Jiraiya" asked the Hokage.

"Well going to the Konoha University will definitely put me one step closer to becoming Hokage wouldn't it? All the previous Hokage's went there and if I don't go there I don't want to jynx myself" Naruto said, "Plus Sakura chan will be there too I'll be able to stay with her" Naruto thought.

"Ahh yes, but don't forget the Yondaime graduated from there as well, but he did not become Hokage until he had being personally trained by Jiraiya, Konoha University forgets to mention that fact every now and then, just to keep appearance up to outside villages." The Hokage explained.

"What sort of things would Jiraiya be teaching me but?" inquired Naruto.

"Why don't you ask him yourself? You can come in now Jiraiya" said the hokage.

Through the door on the left a man in his 50's, very tall and with a strong build came into the room.

"Naruto, long time no see, keeping out of trouble I hope?" Asked Jiraiya.

"Well I think I'm keeping out of more trouble then you, been peeing in any bath houses lately?" asked Naruto,

"That's none of your business!" exclaimed Jiraiya.

"Now now we're here to discuss important matters, Jiraiya please tell him what your training will consist of" said the hokage.

" Well Naruto, you know at the university, you will learn the basic theory of all three aspects of being a shinobi, Ninjutsu, Taijutsu and Genjutsu and also you will learn stragety, chakra control and manipulation and all the other stuff involved, then apply them in simulations set up around the training grounds or in sparring matches?" asked Jiraiya

Naruto nodded listening intently.

"Well that's all great, but there's one thing missing when you do it in simulations and between people you know, the element of danger, when your with me we'll be doing all of the above and also going on real missions given by the hokage himself, usually A-Ranked missions, which involves infiltration, assassinations, rescuing hostages e.t.c." explained Jiraiya.

"So instead of finishing Uni, and having little experience in the field, you'll already have the experience needed which will move you up quicker in the ranks. Don't get me wrong you'll still be doing missions through the university, but they won't be as hard depending on how well you are doing." explained the hokage.

"You'll also have the experience of team work!" stated Jiraiya.

"Team work?" asked Naruto.

"Yes, well you didn't think you were the only one being offered this were you? In the uni, they teach you stuff like war strategy and reconnaissance and such but someone like you wouldn't fit in that aspect of battle, your more like the brute force, attacking force, what ever you want to call it, so instead of teaching you stuff you don't need, we'll mainly concentrate on areas of your expertise."

"How does that help my team work but?" asked Naruto.

"Let me finish, I'll also be taking a few other people with me on the training trip, like I just mentioned a war strategist a spy for reconnaissance a medic and probably another brute pushing force like you, So when you come out of my training you'll already have a 5 man squad that has been training together for 3years, usually they stay together until some circumstanced forbid them" explained Jiraiya.

Naruto stood there pondering for a minute.

"This training with Jiraiya sounds like a really good idea, sounds dangerous, but I love those kind of situations, and he also mentioned a medic so maybe Sakura Chan can come too, though she tried so hard to get into Konoha uni I don't think she'd be willing to give it up so quick,and I don't think I want her to be in dangerous positions where she can get hurt….I can always go on my training ship after I come out of uni I guess like the Yondaime, waiting 3years won't hurt"

"So what do you think Naruto?" asked the hokage.

"Well I have been thinking this out for awhile now, but I think like everyone else I will be attending the Konoha university first, I've got my scholarship through it now and it's looking to be pretty concrete, where as if I go with Jiraiya I might not be able to get the scholarship when I come back in 3years" Naruto explained.

"Now don't get me wrong training with you Jiraiya would be an honour, but I was just thinking like the yondaime I could always join you on your training ship after university correct? If so I would like to go through the university first, and the road to becoming hokage is a long road and there's no shortcuts so I'm going to bear through it all" Naruto said determined.

Jiraiya and the Hokage both smiled at this, and then the Hokage smiled.

"You determination hasn't changed since 5years ago Naruto, I wish you luck in Uni, though if you ever feel like pulling out early to go with Jiraiya your more then welcome too ok?" explained the Hokage.

"Ok thanks old man……WHAT! It's already 9:30p.m! I need to get changed and go to the dance, I'll see you later old man and Jiraiya!" with that he sped out the door.

"Full of energy that kid, as always don't you think?" asked the Hokage

"Yeah he is, though it'll be a shame having to wait till he graduates uni to take him training, he could really be a force to be beckoned with if a war was to break out." Said Jiraiya

"We'll see for some reason I don't think he joined the uni for the right reasons, we'll have to see and play it by ear, he may see that it was not the best choice for him" said the Hokage

Jiraiya rasied his eyebrows at him questioningly but didn't say anything.

"So Jiraiya, who do you think you will take with you on your training then for 3years?" asked the Hokage.

" From the batch this year? No one, none of them really seemed to stand out like Naruto, Though next year, I might see if that Gaara kid wants to come with me, him and Naruto seem to pack a hard punch and the amount of chakra they have are unbelievable" explained Jiraiya.

"Well they do have their 'Special circumstances'" said the Hokage.

"Having Naruto and Gaara training with me, now that would do Konoha a huge boost in military, those two teamed up together would be a force to be reckoned with, they'd almost be unstoppable" Jiraiya said

"Though with the way things are going that may not be possible" Jiraiya continued.

"we'll see….we'll see" said the hokage with a knowing look.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Naruto had entered the dance hall late since his meeting had gone longer then expected.

The DJ was already playing and the music was flowing through the hall, the lights were turned down and they had coloured lights going through. The people were dressed up very formally, the ladies in fabulous dresses and the guys flashy in suits.

He made his way through the crowd to look for Sakura hoping she wasn't too pissed off that he was late but he had promises to keep.

Sakura was chatting with Ino and Shikamaru smiling and laughing brightly, but on the inside she was fuming

"Where is he? The dance is almost over if he doesn't hurry up" she thought.

But right then someone had tapped on the shoulder, she turned around with the brightest smile she could manage expecting Naruto, but it wasn't him, it was Sasuke.

"Hey Sakura you look great tonight" Sasuke said
"Thankyou Sasuke kun you don't look too bad yourself " Sakura said but on the inside inner sakura was pissed "Is he saying I don't look fabulous any other time!"

"Where's your boyfriend Sakura shouldn't he be here at the dance with you?" asked Sasuke emphasising on the word boyfriend.

"I don't like this guy at all" thought Shikamaru.

"His with the Hokage and Jiraiya making choices about his future, you know important tournament winner business" said Ino

Sasuke got a frown on his face but it quickly disappeared as it appeared.

"Well if his not here may I ask you for a dance Sakura?"

Sakura thought for a minute but she didn't want to go home without a dance and plus a really cute guy was asking her so accepted his offer and went towards the floor with him.

As they walked off towards the dance floor Naruto approached Ino and Shikamaru.
"Hey guys have you seen Sakura chan?"
Naruto asked
"Yeha she went off towards the dance floor I think" Ino replied
"Thanks, by the way you look great Ino chan" and with that Naruto walked off towards the floor as well.

"Busted!" thought Ino

"Troublesome" thought Shikamaru

"Hey Shikamaru while we're here you want to have a dance?" asked Ino

"She only wants to go watch the commotion but it'd be too troublesome to argue with her" thought Shikamaru
"Okay Ino lead the way," he said.

Naurto found Sakura walking with her back to him so he called out to her "Hey Sakura chan sorry I'm late the meeting with the old man went for longer then expect"

Both Sakura and Sasuke turned around.

"Not him again!" thought both the boys.

Sasuke had his hand on the small of Sakura's back ready to dance, Naruto looked at Sakura questioningly but just sighed out loudly, turned around and started to walk away but Sakura had grabbed his hand.

"Sorry Naruto, it's just that I didn't know if you were coming or not and Sasuke kun asked me to dance, I didn't want to say no, just in case you didn't make it and I didn't get a chance to dance at my own graduation." Sakura explained.

Naruto just looked at her, then just whispered, "You look as gorgeous as always Sakura chan" and walked away.

Sakura had worried look in her eyes and would have followed him, but Sasuke had put his hand on her waist and got ready to dance with her.

She realised she would only humiliate him if she walked off now to find Naruto so she started dancing with him but her eyes were wandering the crowd looking for Naruto.

"Damn who does he think he is stealing other people's girlfriends and dancing with them, maybe I should have hospitalised him" Naruto thought.

Naruto was lost in his thoughts so wasn't watching where he was going until he bumped into someone with blonde hair.
"Hey, watch where you're walking," said a blonde girl.
"Ino?" Naruto thought "No wait can't be she's not this tall"
Naruto looked at the girl, she had emerald eyes straight long blonde hair and a dark/purplish spaghetti strap dress on.

"Why do I get the feeling I know her from somewhere?" Naruto thought
"Oh it's you Naruto!" she exclaimed "Congratulations on winning the tournament" she said.

"Thanks." Naruto answered unsurely.

"Thought it should have been another you and Gaara finals, seems like that Lee kid was tougher then he looked."

Then it clicked in Naruto's head, "Its Temari! Gaara's sister" he thought." Didn't recognise her with her hair out like this."

"So where is Gaara anyway, isn't he a year younger then us?" Naruto asked.

"I had to drag him here, and he's a year younger so he won't be finishing till next year, if he doesn't kill anyone I guess, and I think his up on the roof as always, it's full moon tonight and you know how he can be difficult during those times" explained Temari.

"Yeha difficult as in he gets blood thirsty and violent...well more so then usual" snickered Naruto.

"Well I might go up and have a chat to him, I'll see you around Temari" said Naruto and as he was about to walk away Ino and Shikamaru turned up.

"Fancy running into you again Naruto, did you find Sakura?" asked Ino innocently.
"She's just trying to stir things up, plus offcourse we'd run into him, you were following him the whole time." thought Shikamaru.


"Yeha she is dancing with Sasuke 'kun'" said Naruto bitterly emphasising the word Kun.

"Really? What is that girl thinking; well while they're dancing you want to dance with me?" asked Ino.
Naruto having no reason not to dance with Ino, agreed and the two made their way to the dance floor, leaving Temari and Shikamaru behind.

"Well... That leaves just the two of us doesn't it?" stated Temari.

Shikamaru and Temari know each other since Naruto and Gaara are friends they tended to see each other every now and then.

"I bet Ino planned this as well" he thought.

"Yeha sure does, would you like to dance Temari?" he asked.

Temari was surprised she thought she'd have to coax him into dancing. "Well saves me a lot of trouble," thought Temari.

"I'd love too Shikamaru" she said.

While Shikamaru was thinking along the lines of "Either way I'm guessing she would have wanted to dance, might as well as save the trouble and get it over and done with".

Out on the dance floor Ino and Naruto had already started dancing, though Naruto wasn't really into it, he was looking around for Sakura, Ino had noticed this, so when the song ended and a slow song came on she had a plan.

She put naruto's hands on her waist and went to put her arms around his neck but he stopped her
"What are you doing Ino?" whispered Naruto.

"Getting comfortable" replied Ino.

"Well you're making me uncomfortable" thought Naruto.
"Hey I'm getting a bit thirsty you want to come with me and get a drink?" He asked.

Ino agreed reluctantly and they walked off the dance floor.
Sakura had seen all of it and was fuming when Ino was about to put her arms around his neck, but was relieved when he stopped her.
She saw this as her chance, and thanked Sasuke for the dance and went to look for the two.

She found Naruto sitting by the bar with a drink, but no sight of Ino "Even better" thought Sakura.
She came up behind him and put her arms around from behind him and her head on his shoulders and whispered into his ear.

"Sorry for making you wait."
"I thought you wanted me to save the first dance for you Sakura chan..." Naruto said.

"I said I was sorry Naruto, I wasn't even sure if you were going to make it...I'm really sorry Naruto, I'll make it up to you." she said pleadingly.

Then the DJ announced "And the last song for the evening is coming up ladies and gentleman, find your partners and make your way over to the dance floor."

The lights dimmed so it was almost dark, they had a few lights on which made it look like it was the moonlight was shining on the dance floor.

Sakura took a few steps back and was looking at Naruto.
"Naruto, may I have this dance please?"
Naruto looked at her, finished his drink and reluctantly got up and they made their way to the dance floor.

He had his arms around her waist and she had her arms around his neck, but he wasn't looking at her, it was as if he was seeing through her.

"Your not very happy with me at the moment are you?" asked Sakura.

"Should I be?" asked Naruto.

"Your not Jealous are you Naruto?"

For some reason that line was very familiar to Naruto.

"To tell you the truth...Yes I am jealous"
Sakura got a look of sympathy on her face, she knew how that felt.
"You have nothing to worry about Naruto, nothing at all" then she moved closer to kiss him but was cut off by a hand.
"Hey hey, there is a time and place for that sort of thing, you two should get a room" Said Temari as she danced away with Shikamaru.

"Maybe we will!" Sakura yelled, then whispered into Naruto's ear "...My parents aren't going to be home tonight" then pulled away and gave Naruto a shy smile and a blush across her cheeks.
Naruto got the meaning and smiled back and leant and kissed her, Sakura hungrily kissed back and their tongues were dancing around tasting each other.

They came up for air when the lights came back on and the song ended, everyone slowly made there way out of the hall finding their friends and chatting with them as they left.

They met up with Shikamaru,Temari, Ino and Gaara was up on the roof who Naruto had to go get.

They slowly trudged home recapping on the nights events,
Temari and Ino had a secret discussion on Shikamaru, which turned into Temari teasing Ino for trying to get with Naruto, which Ino of course denied.

Naruto asking Gaara why he didn't come down, but then got the point when Gaara didn't answer him, instead they started talking about the fights they had today.

Shikamaru was towards the back with both hands behind his head looking up at the moon thinking how life would be easier if he were the clouds.

Sakura was thinking about tonight "Me and Nartuo alone tonight and my parents are out are we really going to go through with it? I know I'm ready, well I think I'm ready, well I know I love him, and I know he loves me, it should be a special occasion for us…what happens if he hurts me?" Were the thoughts running through her head but in the corner of her mind she was thinking "I wonder where Sasuke kun went?"

She was broken out of her thought when Naruto wrapped his arm around her waits and was walking beside her.
"Where'd everyone else go?" asked Sakura.

"Are you alright Sakura? You've been out of it since we've left the hall, we just got to the intersection and everyone went home remember?" Naruto said "and we're right outside your house now."

She looked up and they were at her door steps, she couldn't believe how fast that walk went.

"What!" Sakura thought "I wanted more time to think about this"

"Well….umm…." Sakura was struggling for words and her body was shaking and she had a panicked look in her eyes.

Then all of a sudden Naruto grabbed Sakura she closed her eyes and shrieked.

But when she realised what had happened her head was buried her head in his warm chest and she was really comfortable and she felt safe.

"Sakura chan, you know we don't have to do this tonight. Your shaking at the moment, I'll wait until your ready Sakura chan"

"I don't think she's ready for this" were Naruto's thoughts " she seemed okay with the idea at the hall but once we left she's been out of it, I don't want to pressure her into anything she's not ready for"

But his thoughts were cut off by a pair of warm lips covering his own.

"He's so caring, he's always been so caring how could I even remotely think that he would hurt me, I know I want tonight to happen" thought Sakura.

As Sakura moved back from the kiss, her shaking had stopped she was a lot calmer and her smile had come back to her face.

"You okay now Sakura chan?" asked Naruto.
"I'm okay now, thanks Naruto, your always caring about me" replied Sakura
Naruto was about to reply but she put a finger to his lips.
"Shhh….no more talking, let's go inside…." And with that Sakura held his hand and slowly entered the house and led him to her bedroom where they both completed each other completely for the first time.
