Sunlight poured into Sakura's room. She turne and buried her face further into her pillow. It was nice, soft, and cold. Wait...cold?
She sat up, startled. Laying next to her was a stunning-looking man with pale skin and black hair. Sakura smiled. That's right...Sasuke came back to me. She snuggled next to him, awakening him. He blinked.
"Sakura..." He brought her close to him in an embrace. "Don't go."
She giggled. "I won't Today's my day off from work." Sakura gave him a quick kiss on his cheek.
He smiled at her. "Well, actually, there is one thing I'd have to do today."
She pouted. "Not leaving again, are you?"
Sasuke gave her a small laugh. "No, no. I have to tell Tsunade that I'm back in Konoha now."
Sakura was silent. Tsunade, the 5th Hokage, must be informed of this, yes. She knew that she would welcome him back, but... How would the rest of Konoha react? They've considered him a traitor long ago, when he left to join Orochimaru. "...When?"
"Would you like to come with me...now?" he asked.
She looked at his face. From the expression in his eyes, she could see that he wanted to get it over with. "Of course."
After fixing themselves up, they headed out to the Hokage's office.
"Sakura-chan! Sakura-chan!" a voice called out. A blond man ran towards them.
"Naruto-kun!"
"Heeeey!" He stopped in front of them, catching his breath. "Who's tha-" He was just about to point at Sasuke when realization struck him. His mouth dropped open.
Sasuke gave a weak grin. "Hey, dobe."
"OHMIGOD! Sasuke!" Naruto was overjoyed. He tackled him. "Sasuke bastard!"
"Oof! I guess I missed you, too."
"You guess!" he shreiked.
"Okay, okay, whatever. I did. Now get off: He pushed him off. "You're heavy. Did all that ramen finally catch up to you?"
"Shut up." Naruto crossed his arms. "Never mind. I so didn't miss you at all!"
"Hey! Sakura! Naruto!"
They turned to see Ino, Choji, and Shikamaru walking towards them.
Sakura smiled. "Hey, Ino! What's up?"
Sasuke raised an eyebrow. Using just the first name? They must be close now... he thought back six years ago when they used to fight.
Ino nudged Sakura's side. "So...Sakura, Sakura. You've finally got a boyfriend?"
Shikamaru stared at Sasuke. "...Um...Ino...?"
She didn't pay him any attention. "So who's the lucky guy?" she teased.
"...Ino..."
She still wasn't paying attention.
"Hey, welcome back." Choji told Sasuke in between his chewing. "I guess sense finally came back to you."
This got Ino's attention. "'Welcome back'?" She was confused.
Naruto couldn't hold it in any more. "It's Sa-"
"I thought I felt Uchiha's chakra around here." Neji said. Team Gai and Team Kurenai joined them. "You finally came back."
"'Uchiha'?" Ino asked. She looked closely at Sasuke. The it suddenly struck home. "Sasuke?" she asked incredulously.
Shikamaru sighed. "I tried to tell you." He scratched the back of his head. "How troublesome."
"Did you tell Tsunade yet?" Neji asked.
Feh. Good, old Neji. All business as usual. "We were just about to go there." Sasuke replied.
"Should we go, too?" Hinata asked. Sasuke was surprised that she had lost her stutter.
"Yeah, let's go."
Sasuke was even more surprised to hear Shino talk. Wow...things have changed...
"Haha! Sasuke bastard's so grateful, he's speechless." Naruto patted him across the back.
...Well, except for him. He smirked. "For once, you're right, dobe." Sasuke was grateful that they welcomed him back, despite his betrayal. It made him feel more confident to approach Tsunade and make his presence known throughout Konoha.
Naruto's mouth dropped open.
Sakura laughed at him. "Yeah...Sasuke has changed a bit, huh, Naruto?"
"Yes, I have." Sasuke said. he turned towards the Hokage's office. "So let's go! I want to be alone with Sakura again." He smirked.
Sakura blushed, remembering last night. Why did I feel like it was a nightmare again?
"E-EH?" the group asked.
Sasuke laughed and ran, pulling Sakura along with him.
"Hey! Sasuke! Sakura! Waaaiit! We need details!"
Their voices faded away as they got further and further away...
