Disclaimer: read chapters 1-8 to find out

A/N: sorry i havent updated as fast as usual, but i had MAJOR writers blockXD i just sat and stared at my computer for an hour with nothing popping into my headXP

Naruto sat up and rubbed his eyes. He turned around and looked at the clock on the bedside table. It was 2:24AM. He groaned and flopped his head on the pillow. He looked up at the moon. It was a bright beautiful moon. He sighed and looked up at Sakura, who had turned over in her sleep to face the moon.

Naruto sat up putting his arms on the bed. He rested his head atop his arms. He smiled as he watched the sleeping girl. He took his left hand and brushed away the locks of pink hair in her face. In a silent puff of smoke Naruto's blonde hair turned black and his blue eyes turned onyx. Can you guess who he is? That's right, Sasuke.

'She's so beautiful when she sleeps. Just like a peaceful cherry blossom. Unlike when she's awake. Yelling, screaming, killing Naruto.' The young Uchiha sighed. 'Well she didn't talk to Naruto about m- Wait I cut her off before. She was gonna tell Naruto something! Damn…makes me wonder if she even knows. Of course she does! I'm being silly. If not Ino then Naruto surely would've told her.' Sasuke froze and slid back down onto his little homemade bed as the door creaked open. Someone poked their head in the door. They looked to the bed and then closed the door quietly. Sasuke sighed with relief. It was just one of Sakura's parents checking on her.

"Well that was close." He sat back up and looked over at Sakura. Who was…looking back? Her eyes were filled with fear.

"S-S-S-Sa-Sa-Sasuke?" The kunoichi fell out of the bed and landed right by Sasuke. "P-Please! D-D-Don't k-kill m-m-m-me!" Sakura sat up and scooted herself right under the window. Sasuke stood up and knelt beside her. She started trembling a little when Sasuke got closer. Tears threatened to spill. She closed her eyes and started wishing she was anywhere but here. 'H-Hey where's Naruto?' She opened her eyes and let them search the room. Not one sign of him. "W-Where's N-N-Naruto?" Then the Uchiha did something that shocked her. He embraced her.

"Don't worry Sakura. Naruto is fine. This is all just a bad dream." The kunoichi collapsed into Sasuke's arms. 'She…fainted? Maybe I should've just left when I woke up.' He picked her up bridal style and laid her in bed and covered her up.

'Now I need paper and pencil.' The genin walked over to the dresser and found a pencil on it. Then he walked over to the bedside table and found paper in one of the drawers. He wrote her a note, trying his best to impersonate Naruto's sloppy handwriting. He left the note under the clock and walked back over to the sleeping cherry blossom. For the first time in a while he gave an honest smile. He leaned down and gave her a kiss on the cheek. After that he opened the window and jumped out. Little did he know that someone was watching him the whole time.

Sakura awoke the next morning to birds chirping.

'W-What the?' Her eyes fluttered open, took one look out the window, and covered her whole body up with the blanket. 'I don't wanna get up!' She whined to herself. She felt a breeze enter the room. 'Huh? But my window was…' She uncovered her head and looked at the once closed window. '…open?' The mob of pink hair finally forced herself out of bed and stuck her head out the window. 'What's the window doing op-' She stopped her thoughts when she saw a note by her clock. It read:

Sakura,

I forgot to lock up my house last night so I left through your window. (Hope ya don't mind) I finally decided to at least TRY to make it on my own…wish me luck. Well NIGHT! Or morning depending on when you wake up…anyways, BYE!

Naruto

"Oh, well I'm glad! He needs to learn to concur fear before fear concurs him." Sakura sat the note down and stretched. "Well I…" She let out a huge yawn "…better get ready for the day." She looked at the clock that read 9:17AM. "Only nine seventeen? Guess I could use a little more sleep." The young shinobi flopped back down on her bed and fell asleep instantly.

"SAKURA! WAKE UP!" A small rock hit Sakura on the head.

"Ow!" The pink-haired kunoichi sat up and rubbed the spot where the rock hit. "What the-" She blinked a few times and stared at the person at her window. "Naruto?"

"It's about time you woke up! It's like twelve o'clock!" Naruto was now dangling his feet over the side of the windowsill.

"Twelve! It's been three hours practically! How could I sleep so late?" She grabbed her pink hair and pulled it. "Oh well…I guess I was just real tired."

"You can say that again! You snore like a pig!" Sakura got up and clonked him hard on the head. "OW!" He fell into the room headfirst. "OOOOOOOWWWWW!"

"That's what you deserve! I do NOT snore like a pig!"

"Ever hear yourself? I'll record ya next time an-" Sakura wrapped one arm around Naruto and used the other to bonk him on the head.

"WHAT A WAY TO WAKE UP! JEEZE! DO YOU EVER TAKE A BREAK?"

"OW! OW! OW! Finding it k-kinda hard to b-b-breathe!" He was holding onto Sakura's arm and kicking franticly.

"Oh." She let Naruto go. He was gasping for air.

"I never knew anyone could do that when they wake up." His hands were on his knees.

"How'd ya sleep last night?" Sakura sat on her bed.

"Pretty good. I had the weirdest dream though. I came over to your house. You were in a towel, got mad at me, and threw me in the closet. Then I stayed the night." Sakura arched a brow.

'Did he hit his or something? I mean that happened. Right? Or did we have the same dream. Oh god! That would be freaky!' Sakura shuddered. "Naruto, didn't that really happen? Or are we both crazy?"

"I dunno. I could say crazy 'cause of the Shino thing yesterday, but I know I'm not crazy!" Naruto smiled.

"What are you saying?" Sakura clenched her hand. "I AM NOT CRAZY! I-I HAPPENED!"

"Well I probably bumped my head while climbing out your window. I mean I already know I can find my way home unconscious."

"You what?"

"I saw Sasuke fighting Kiba and some freak in a mask. Sasuke noticed me watching and threw me against a tree, which knocked me out. Then when I woke up I was in my bed!" Sakura sighed.

'Wow.' "So Naruto. Why did you have to wake me up? I was sleeping!"

"I know you were sleeping. That's why I woke you up. I didn't see you anywhere so I worried and thought you might have gotten killed."

"I wouldn't get myself get killed. I know you wouldn't go off and get yourself killed. I mean you promised you wouldn't kill Sasuke and you wouldn't let Sasuke kill you." Naruto sighed and took a seat by Sakura.

"Okay, now it's your turn to make a promise." Sakura arched her head to the left.

"What kinda promise?"

"That you'll stay indoors and take precaution. Like Ino and Hinata."

"W-WHAT?"

"You heard me. I don't want you getting killed." Naruto looked into her eyes. His were filled with concern while hers were filled with anger and shock.

"WHO SAYS I'D GET KILLED?"

"I'm just trying to be safe! Calm down." Naruto stood up and walked next to the window.

"So you get to go off and break the promise you made to me by fighting Sasuke, while I sit here and keep your promise?" Sakura stood up and crossed her arms.

"If I don't do something who will?"

"The jonin and Hokage! That's who! I don't want you getting killed!"

"And I don't want you getting killed!"

"Are you saying that Sasuke could kill me?"

"You're sayin' I could loose to Sasuke! If he could kill me he could definitely kill you!"

"I'm not weak! I wouldn't let him kill me!"

"I'm not saying that you're weak! I'm just saying that his skills surpass yours!"

"That's calling me weak!"

"Don't get involved!"

"It's not up to you!"

"I don't care! I want you to be safe!"

"I wouldn't let him kill me! I don't need to listen to what you say!"

"You should!"

"No I won't! I'll do what I want!"

"Ino and Hinata didn't get this worked up! So why are you acting so childish!"

"Because Sasuke's my friend! That automatically gets me involved!"

"How the hell could you still consider him a friend after what he's done?"

"Stay outta my life! You're not my mom! Just get out and leave me alone!" Naruto just stared at her. A tear rolled down her cheek. "Don't just stand there and stare! GET OUT!" Sakura closed her eyes and pointed out the window.

"Fine. If you want me to stay out of your life I will." With that he jumped out the window.
